Noon.
A private restaurant in Yangcheng, elegant private room.
Huo Shaoting arrived first.
He sat sipping fragrant tea, having recently found love, his whole deanor radiated with vitality.
Su Ruanruan, led by the server, gracefully entered the private room.
"Second brother Huo," she called gently.
Huo Shaoting looked up and imdiately stood, offering her a seat: "You’re here? Please, sit down."
Displaying gentlemanly manners, he helped Su Ruanruan hang her coat.
Sitting down, they chatted casually for a mont until the dishes were all served.
The server smiled: "Mr. Huo, Miss Su, please enjoy."
Su Ruanruan waited until she left, then sipped her tea lightly and smiled: "It seems this place is a private investnt of yours, second brother Huo?"
Huo Shaoting responded modestly.
He guessed Su Ruanruan had sothing important, otherwise, she wouldn’t have specially asked Yan Jing to leave.
Sure enough, Su Ruanruan got straight to the point, expressing her desire for Huo Shaoting to help inquire about Yin Mingzhu’s matter.
Huo Shaoting hesitated.
He said to Su Ruanruan: "Concubine Yin is the old master’s person, it’s hard for to interfere..."
Su Ruanruan and Bao Jingyan had helped him before, so he didn’t outright reject her.
Su Ruanruan smiled: "Today I won’t discuss sentint with second young master Huo, let’s just talk business."
Huo Shaoting was montarily stunned.
Su Ruanruan continued: "I heard that after second brother divorced Chen Xishan, the Huo family’s finances are still managed by her; I doubt second brother is entirely without feelings about this."
At these words, Huo Shaoting took a deep sip of wine.
He was candid with Su Ruanruan: "Honestly, just ntioning this burns up! The old master favors her, yet she refuses to relinquish power, and even my elder brother and I can’t deal with her."
Su Ruanruan’s eyes burned brightly: "What if I could help second brother gain control over Huo Bank? Would second brother be willing to aid ?"
Huo Shaoting’s hand holding the wine glass paused.
He stared intently at Su Ruanruan, slowly setting down the glass, his voice slightly trembling: "Is this true?"
Su Ruanruan smiled subtly: "Absolutely true!"
Huo Shaoting pondered and said: "This task is not easy! Actually, concubine Yin used to help with things... Ruanruan, you..."
"I want to make this transaction with second brother." Su Ruanruan said softly.
Huo Shaoting picked up the wine glass again.
He drank in one gulp.
Afterwards, he asked Su Ruanruan about her strategy.
Su Ruanruan then took a check from her purse, issued by Tongsheng Hospital’s headquarters...
The amount was significant: 20 billion.
Huo Shaoting’s tongue turned slightly.
——Even for a wealthy family like the Huo family, sums like this aren’t commonplace.
Su Ruanruan said quietly: "I want to deposit this fund into Huo Bank!"
Huo Shaoting deliberately tested: "Ruanruan, wouldn’t the Huo family benefit, how would this handle Chen Xishan?"
Su Ruanruan replied: "Second brother just needs to watch, within a month, I’ll ensure you gain control."
He had witnessed her skills before.
He trusted her.
After a few more bites, Huo Shaoting stood to leave.
He said to Su Ruanruan: "I’ll handle Mingzhu’s matters imdiately!"
Su Ruanruan sat elegantly, speaking softly: "Second brother Huo, call her ’Mingzhu’ from now on."
Being smart, Huo Shaoting understood imdiately.
He hurried away, returning to the Huo Mansion in a black sedan.
When he arrived at the Huo Mansion, most were napping.
Huo Shaoting didn’t disturb anyone, he found Chen the housekeeper.
Upon seeing the second young master, Chen the housekeeper imdiately approached with a smile: "Second young master, why did you rush back at noon? Young Ling is at school, and Xi is napping, shall I bring them over for you?"
Huo Shaoting stood flipping through books by the bookshelf, his tone indifferent: "No need, I have sothing to ask you."
Chen the housekeeper felt a jolt inside.
Huo Shaoting walked back to his seat and slowly sat, looking up at him, gently asking: "Where is Yin Mingzhu?"
