Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain 325
It was rare for Zhong Yuhuan to inspect the Zhong company personally. After she finished and was at the lobby, an employee ca over and bowed, President Zhong, there is soone outside wanting to see you, calling herself your relative.
As the employee said this, they frowned.
Who could call themselves Miss Zhongs relatives? Only the old Mr. Ding, Mr. Lang, Mr. Huo, and Mr. Li can! No one else! This person is really bold, daring to pretend to be a mber of her family!
Zhong Yuhuan was also doubtful.
Her relative?
Her relatives could all just call her.
No, they didnt even need to call her. They could directly co in and wait for her in the lounge.
Zhong Yuhuan just happened to be leaving the building. As she did, she looked out the gates for the person whom the employee had said was a relative wanting to see her.
You, youre Zhong Yuhuan? A plump middle-aged woman in purple quickly waddled in front of her.
The bodyguards imdiately blocked her.
Although Zhong Yuhuan was suspicious of her identity, she still politely asked the woman who she was.
Im Huo Chengmings aunt! Really! The middle-aged woman patted her chest, even bringing out her ID card.
Zhong Yuhuan looked at her ID card: Huo Dai.
Zhong Yuhuan almost burst into laughter, wondering if Huo Chengming couldve had a na like Huo Xiaogou* when he was little.
*The Dai part of Huo Dai literally ans big plum (blossom) and Xiaogou ans little dog. Both are considered very unsophisticated (its like naming soone Plum or Puppy).
Zhong Yuhuan calmly looked at Huo Dai, asking, Is there anything you need?
Huo Dai reached out, wanting to grab Zhong Yuhuan. You and Huo Chengming are siblings, right? You have to call him older brother, right? I heard that hes very good towards you, very caring. Im begging you, please ask him to let us go, ah, let us go
What? Zhong Yuhuan was stunned.
Hes about to kill all of us! Us, his family! How could he do this? Please, tell him to let us go
With Huo Dais shouting, a few more people ca over.
They varied in age, but all of them looked desperate and fatigued. There was even an old woman wearing patched clothing. Who still wore patched clothing in this era?
Were begging you These people pleaded together. There were even so who knelt down.
Standing there, Zhong Yuhuan began to slowly frown, feeling a bit at a loss for an instant.
They did look very pitiable.
But no matter how pitiable they were, she could care less.
Especially after learning of Huo Chengmings experiences before he went to the orphanage.
Coincidentally, Ling Lan just got out of her car. She had co to look for Zhong Yuhuan.
Before getting too close, she saw a group of people surrounding her and pleading for rcy.
But Zhong Yuhuan stood behind her bodyguards, motionless.
It was like a bucket of cold water poured on Ling Lan, startling her and clearing her mind.
Zhong Yuhuans this ruthless?
Ling Lan grinded her teeth and turned back to the car.
No matter whether or not Zhong Yuhuan was really ruthless, the main point was that Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan were by her side. The two most powerful people of the original story were already hers.
If Ling Lan still clung to them, what would be the consequences? Would she get what she wanted or or beco like those people, begging for rcy?
No, she refused to end up like that.
Ling Lan went through the plot again in her mind.
She couldnt help but admit that reality was already too different from the story.
At this point, even if she did continue to use her tactics from the original story to deal with them, it wouldnt work So what should she do?
Ling Lan looked out the car window at a loss.
Wasnt her rebirth for her to beco one of the elite?
Zhong Yuhuan was completely unaware that Ling Lan had co and was scared back by the tragic appearance of Huo Dai and her family.
Zhong Yuhuan stared at the crowd of people kneeling in front of her, anger igniting in her heart. She said impatiently, Its up to Huo Chengming. How can I persuade him? And plus, the people who got the compensation money and drove away the child that year were you guys, was it not? Isnt it enough that youve lived happily for so many years? Are you unaware of the consequences after karma has hit?
What compensation money? Huo Dai shook her head, snot, and tears all over her face. I have no idea what youre talking about
Zhong Yuhuan naturally believed that Huo Chengming wouldnt lie, so Huo Dai had to be the one lying.
After all, people in the wrong would never admit their wrongdoings.
Then what do you want? Zhong Yuhuan asked impatiently.
Huo Dai wiped away her tears. Hes already forced us to the end of our ropes. My eyes are about to go blind after delaying the surgery. My son is still at the hospital. His uncles lost their jobs. Were all his family, yet we cant even afford a al now, or have a place to stay Go tell him to return our house to us
Zhong Yuhuan imdiately lost all of her patience.
She turned around, about to instruct her bodyguards to chase them away when a car stopped by the road. The car door opened and Huo Chengming walked out briskly with a calm expression.
You want a house? Why didnt you co straight to ? he spoke.
Without him coming any closer, Huo Dai already seed to be electrocuted, her limbs twitching, her body trembling, her face full of tears and snot. Her throat also seed to be blocked, unable to speak a single syllable.
Huo Chengming walked over to Zhong Yuhuan, using one hand to shield her behind him, then frowned in disgust. Do you still want it?
Huo Dai was very scared of him.
Scared to death.
