In addition to art being put on display, the exhibition also sold paintings. The paintings of those famous painters were good, with Lou Xiao’s name plastered on the exhibition, all the paintings sold at a good price.

 

When it came to Huo Wei’s paintings, Huo Tingwei naturally wanted to buy all of them and let no one else see them. The group of young people that were fighting against Huo Wei’s injustice were also scrambling to buy them. Each of them was not short of money. She drew paintings that can make people cry. Of course, they have to buy them to support her. They knew that Huo Wei wanted to make money by selling paintings, so the higher the selling price, the more Huo Tingwei will be attacked. They were not afraid of making this a huge issue and stubbornly worked out a bidding stance.

 

But no one thought that, in the end, it would be Lou Xiao that swept all the paintings away at a very high price!

 

Lou Xiao didn’t even give anyone else any of Huo Wei’s paintings. He bought everything himself!

 

Huo Wei’s friends secretly hated how they didn’t have that much money to bid against Lou Xiao. But when they turned to look at Huo Wei, she was smiling!

 

Shi Qing, Huo Wei’s good friend, touched her with her elbow and asked in a low voice without moving her lips: “What’s happening here! Didn’t you like Tong Bin? What’s really going on with you and Lou Xiao?”

 

She was suddenly surprised. She whispered into Huo Wei’s ear and asked her, “Don’t tell me that the two of you are going to announce your engagement later, right?”

 

“What do you think?” Huo Wei laughingly pushed her head away. “I’m now concentrating on my career and taking up new challenges. I’m not in a hurry for anything else yet.”

 

Huo Wei’s line of sight caught a glimpse of a tall and handsome boy, he was the boy called Tong Bin that was mentioned by Shi Qing. Tong Bin was Huo Wei’s boyfriend in the novel. The original host was very sad because she was left behind by her brother this time, she didn’t know how to handle things like current Huo Wei, and spent every day drinking with her friends. Coincidentally, Tong Bin confessed to her, and she accepted.

 

She didn’t expect that later, once Tong Bin had more contact with his family, and then actually changed his mind to like Zhao Sijia instead. He was just another blind dog. Huo Wei was not interested in him and she won’t have the chance to come into contact with him in the future anyway.

 

At the banquet, Huo Tingwei was not looking good because he didn’t manage to buy any of the paintings. Especially when Lou Xiao bought the paintings, the man mentioned that Huo Wei needed living expenses., so he offered a higher price. This was provocation! Trying to embarrass him in public!

 

In such a short time, there was no one that did not know the news about how he didn’t allow Huo Wei to enter the company and how he cut off her living expenses. Several people at his table didn’t really say anything, but their gazes made him very uncomfortable. If it wasn’t for the fact that leaving now would be more shameful, he wouldn’t have wanted to stay for a minute!

 

The banquet was not only a celebration of the successful conclusion of the exhibition but also an opportunity for everyone to talk about cooperation, to communicate their feelings and expand their contacts. Many people can’t help but overthink when they see Huo Wei standing beside Lou Xiao all the time. Before, these two people said that they would announce important news. Could it be that they are together? Looking at them like this, they looked like a perfect couple, they really do match with each other very well!

 

They couldn’t help but compare Lou Xiao with Huo Ming. Then they found that Lou Xiao was much better than Huo Ming. The development of Yun Xiao Group depended on Lou Xiao’s own capabilities. Now that Lou Xiao was supporting Huo Wei, what can Huo Ming do? Even Huo Tingwei can’t bully Huo Wei now. Didn’t they just saw Lou Xiao implicitly insult Huo Tingwei, causing Huo Tingwei’s face to be in a dark expression until now?

 

Huo Wei didn’t let everyone wait too long before the banquet began. She and Lou Xiao stood on the stage, and Lou Xiao personally introduced them and said, “I invited you all to come here today, not only for you all to attend the art exhibition, but also because I have another important news to announce. That is, Yun Xiao Group has set up an AI robot research department. From now on, we have invested a lot of money, manpower, and material resources to focus on R&D. Anyone who is interested in this topic can discuss with the Yun Xiao group regarding potential cooperation. “

 

As soon as the words came out, almost everyone looked at Huo Tingwei.

 

At present, the main business of Huo Company was AI robots. Most of the company’s profits depended on this. Other people wanted to do it, but they didn’t manage to take much business away from Huo Company. The Huo Company was monopolizing almost 80% of the profits from AI robots.

 

Now, in such a high-profile manner, Lou Xiao has announced his entry into the AI robot market. He has also chosen to announce under such circumstances causing everyone to believe that he did this to fight against Huo Tingwei.

 

Then they heard Lou Xiao say: “The special significance of choosing today was that the director of this R&D department is Miss Huo Wei who is next to me!”

 

Several directors of the Yun Xiao group took the lead in cheering and clapping, and others responded with applause. Many people turned to look at Huo Tingwei’s face. He was surprised at first, then stared at Huo Wei’s face and turned blue. He was extremely angry!

 

Yu Hai put on a promotional video on the big screen, and Huo Wei began to explain Yun Xiao group’s R&D plan to everyone, so that people who wish to cooperate with them have an understanding in their hearts, and let everyone be rest assured that she was the director of R&D.

 

She said in simple terms, did not disclose any secrets, but she was able to help let the experts and laymen understand her research and development a lot better than that of Huo Company. To not say yet whether she can succeed in R&D, but it was obvious that her attitude was clearly against Huo Company.

 

Huo Tingwei was holding his glass, and his knuckles were white. He only received the survey results this morning. Huo Wei hadn’t bought the scientific research results. It was Huo Wei’s real skills at the meeting that day. As a result, Huo Wei joined the Yun Xiao group in the evening and will be developing better AI robots and compete with Huo Company in the market!

 

He remembered very clearly that the people in the R&D department at the meeting that day were all convinced of Huo Wei, and even Huo Ming couldn’t be compared with Huo Wei. Losing Huo Wei, a talented individual, and letting her go to Yun Xiao group was Huo Company’s great loss. If Huo Wei does bring forth advancements in the research and development of Yun Xiao group, then Yun Xiao group will become Huo Company’s biggest rival and will be very difficult to deal with.

 

Huo Tingwei was very regretful at the moment. If he had known that Huo Wei would join the Yun Xiao group, he should have been softer towards Huo Wei. If he had known that Huo Wei had such capabilities, he should have let Huo Wei into the company long ago.

 

He turned to look at Cui Jing but Cui Jing was looking at her daughter on the stage with a smile. She didn’t even give him a look. Soon, the banquet began, Lou Xiao and Huo Wei as today’s main characters were sitting at the main table with him, he had to temporarily suppress all emotions, to not make himself more embarrassed.

 

During the dinner, Huo Wei graciously exchanged greetings with several moguls, which made Huo Tingwei look at her in a new light. He had never paid attention to the growth of his children, and his impression of his daughter was that she is delicate, immature, hated learning, and was playful. After Zhao Sijia, she became jealous and irrational.

 

It was the first time that he saw Huo Wei like this, which was quite different from his impression of his daughter. He suddenly believed what Huo Wei said that day. She did step aside for her brother.

 

One Chairman Chen who did not have a good relationship with Huo Tingwei saw that that the leading characters on both sides were present, and jokingly said, “Chairman Huo’s actions are oddly incomprehensible. Such an excellent daughter was not allowed to enter her own company, and instead joined another’s company.”

 

Huo Tingwei looked at Huo Wei and said, “We just don’t know what youngsters are thinking about, but sooner or later she will return to her family company. Huo Wei’s surname is Huo after all.”

 

Huo Wei didn’t give him face at all. She said with a smile, “There are so many people with the surname Huo in the world and yet they can’t enter Huo Company. I remember that day that I went to Huo Company to prove my abilities, but Chairman Huo told me to get out. I’m still young but I know that I’ll never join Huo Wei for the rest of my life. “

 

The words were so powerful that Huo Tingwei almost couldn’t hold his anger any longer. He said calmly, “No matter how green the grass is on the other side, it’s not as good as home. Huo Wei, I will ignore what you just said. You’re still really young and once you had enough of playing around, you can come back. “

 

Huo Wei said with a smile: “Loux Xiao is very kind to me. Following him for work won’t anger me, and I won’t be wronged or left behind, all of this is much better for my development. Credibility is the most important thing in the market, so my words will never change. In business, Chairman Huo, I will no show mercy to your products in the future. So, please don’t such things again, Chairman Huo. “

 

Huo Tingwei stared at her for a while, and snorted coldly, “I have something else to do. Excuse me.”

 

Huo Tingwei left with a gloomy face. Everyone looked at the main table and wondered what happened. Huo Tingwei was so angry that he left in the middle of the argument.

 

Huo Wei poured a glass of wine for everyone and said with a smile: “Sorry for letting you all see that. I just graduated, and I’m still new. Please take care of me in the future. I’ll raise a toast here first for respect. “

 

Huo Wei was always generous and likable, except for the few words she had exchanged with Huo Tingwei. Together with several business moguls at the same table, they didn’t think much about that, the little girl’s paintings were so full of emotion that it was clear that she really was hurt by her family. She was young and energetic; shouldn’t it be natural for her to be so impulsive? After going through all her recent troubles, wouldn’t it be odd if she continued to pay attention to all aspects of herself? 

 

There were not only directors of Yun Xiao Group, but also one director of Huo Company at the scene. The director witnessed the split between Huo Wei and Huo Company, where Huo Tingwei and Huo Ming have become the laughing stocks. When he was free, he would be informing other directors about this news.

 

Huo Wei’s event was a success. Before Huo Tingwei arrived home, he received calls from all the directors, with all of them asking him why did he not let Huo Wei enter the company. These directors usually only cared about dividends, and never cared much about the operation of the company. However, now there was a sign of disturbance now that made them worry that their interests will be affected and turn over faster than they can expect.

 

It took him two hours to appease the directors. But they all expressed their strong dissatisfaction and asked Huo Tingwei to dismiss Zhao Sijia and not let that culprit stay behind.

 

Huo Tingwei’s mood can’t even be described as irritability anymore. His chest was holding so much anger, that felt like it will explode at any time!

 

Now he finally knows what it means to “explode with anger”, but Cui Jing and Huo Wei still refused to go home, and he had no idea where Huo Ming has gone. So big a house, seemingly almost empty, he was angry, he paced around in the study and kicked over the chair with one leg.

 

Before he could catch his breath, Secretary Qin called again and said that the media had made a video of Huo Wei’s ten paintings and sent them to the Internet. Now they are trending!

 

In fact, Huo Wei’s paintings were far worse when compared to those of great painters, but the aura they emitted were very mysterious. She made people feel the sadness and despair in her paintings, and her paintings attracted a lot of attention.

 

Netizens have been paying attention to her art exhibition. When they saw the photobook, they had a heated discussion. All the possible causes and consequences were gone over and reviewed. When they saw the video, it was like they saw a tragedy. The poor Huo Wei in the painting instantly flared up the people’s sense of justice.

 

The nurse who once took care of Huo Wei in the hospital told the media about the two days, including the rudeness and shamelessness of Huo Ming and Zhao Sijia.

 

There were also Wang Jing and Xia Meng who worked in Huo Company. They thought that this good opportunity. When they release information regarding that their professional stigma was caused by Zhao Sijia at this time, and they will be 100% believed and they can switch to other companies.

 

As a result, Zhao Sijia’s behavior in the company was exposed, and some anonymous colleagues also revealed it. Zhao Sijia joked with Huo Ming in the office during working hours, went directly to the top floor to have dinner with Huo Tingwei after work, made mistakes in the contents of the documents, implicated colleagues to work overtime, said ambiguous words to cause colleagues salary deductions, did not have the ability to do the work, did not protect company’s secrets and looked for outside help, and so on. Too many netizens were filled with indignation.

 

This kind of woman can’t even compare to an ordinary employee. Why should she be an assistant to the general manager and the chairman of the board? Would there really no problem with the Huo Company documents that she handled? Was it really fine for the Huo Company’s leaders to allow her to do these things?

 

Netizens can’t help but scold them. This time, not only Huo Ming and Zhao Sijia but also Huo Tingwei. All the previous speculation about Huo Wei’s bad intentions have disappeared. At this time, those who came out to diss Huo Wei were just people looking to be scolded.

 

[Does Huo have the dignity to clarify this? It was Zhao Sijia who harmed Huo Wei and yet she is still the assistant to the chairman of the board, plainly Huo Company’s bane. Kick Zhao Sijia out!]

 

[Has Huo Wei been appointed director of R&D Department of Yun Xiao Group? It’s said that she proved her abilities during a presentation, and Huo Company still won’t let her in. Do they have a hole in their heads? “

 

[Can’t wait for Huo Wei to develop robots and beat Huo Ming in his own game, what a terrible, terrible father. Spit!]

 

[Can’t wait for Huo Wei’s development, I will support Huo Wei and boycott Huo Company]

 

[Let’s boycott Huoshi, their leaders are not virtuous. There may be something wrong with the product. I dare not buy it. My family, all my relatives, colleagues, and friends will all boycott their products.]

 

[It used to be said that Zhao Sijia and Huo Ming were just friends. Now, for Zhao Sijia, Huo Tingwei cut Huo Wei’s card and prevent her from entering the company. Is Zhao Sijia Huo’s illegitimate daughter? It must be either an illegitimate daughter or Huo Tingwei’s mistress, why else would he be so partial towards her?]

 

[She’s in their home, it doesn’t matter if she was an illegitimate daughter or a mistress, it’s still disgusting!]

 

[Zhao Sijia, hurry up and leave and return the Huo Family to Huo Wei! Never mind, Huo Wei doesn’t even want anything to do with them, they are just a bunch of idiots that have gone all in and refused to even consider that maybe they were the ones who were wrong! Even if they have gone all in, they shouldn’t be trying to harm others.]

 

The rich and powerful families were too far away from ordinary people’s lives. Once exposed, the stain may be forgotten in a flash. But if similar things appeared in front of people once, twice, or three times, then the stain will be engraved on people’s hearts and will never be washed away. Even if it was mentioned again in the next decade, everyone can still relay the whole story.

 

Ordinary criticism did not affect the Huo family, but what about a nationwide boycott? What if the whole nation hated them?

 

If a celebrity encountered such a thing, no matter how popular he was, he will fall into the abyss and never get up again. If a leader of a company encountered such a thing, no matter how well the company’s products were publicized, the sale volume of the company will be bound to drop sharply. For ordinary people like Zhao Sijia, she will definitely collapse when she encounters such a thing.

 

In the past, some people didn’t understand why Huo Wei was worried, but now they all understood. Huo Wei did seem like she wasn’t doing much, and was just clinging to the past. But now she has crushed Zhao Sijia’s heart, shaken the board’s trust in Huo Tingwei, and made Huo Ming’s image change from being genius to terrible brother.

 

With the least expenditure, the least time, she quickly gave them a major blow, a sustainable blow, a blow that will bring them more and more pain, and a blow with countless butterfly effects. This couldn’t be done by taking other actions, only by accurately judging the change of people’s minds can one accomplish such feats to such a degree.

 

She succeeded, so she broke away from the Huo family in front of the whole nation and never got involved with them again.

 

After so much sadness, she turned around and left. Huo Wei’s move to another company gave much relief. Netizens praised her and the media reported her news. This time things won’t’ be able to cool down at all. Even the business magazines have given a feature, hopeful about Huo Wei and Lou Xiao who joined hands to bring about some changes to the AI robotic market.

 

This incident trended for three days, and the income statement of Hou Company was been affected in these three days. The comment section area of Huo Company’s home page was full of curses. Some people were really boycotting Huo’s products.

 

This kind of influence was spread via the internet. It’s just like when a person buys Hou’s products and other people around him say, “How can you buy their things?” then the person naturally doesn’t want to buy Huo’s products anymore.

 

There were also a lot of people going to the relevant government departments to report Huo Company, asking them to investigate Huo Company’s taxes, product quality, human resource allocation problems, and so on. If there are many complaints, the relevant departments will naturally notice that these are the effects against Hou Company.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

 

Even those who originally planned to cooperate with Huo for a long time changed their long-term cooperation to short-term cooperation after they found out that the Yun Xiao group was also entering this field, leaving options for Yun Xiao group to choose from in the future.

 

When a businessman’s image is bad, the subtle effects due to his image cannot be avoided. Huo Wei had just come back to recuperate, and during the period of recuperation, she hasn’t even stepped out of her home and she already toss them about in such a way, until they no longer have the strength to fight back. This was all because of Huo Wei’s early preparations. Now everything has imploded at the same time, taking them by surprise. It all happened so fast that they couldn’t even react, it was too late to stop her now.

 

Huo Tingwei called Cui Jing every day, but this time Cui Jing has even changed her phone number.

 

She asked a private detective to investigate Zhao Sijia. Because it was so long, it took him many days to find what really happened. As soon as she got the investigation results, she was shocked.

 

Zhao Sijia’s father was a foreign businessman. He has never met with Huo Tingwei at all, much less owed a favor. Huo Tingwei was so good to Zhao Sijia because of Zhao Sijia’s mother!

 

Huo Tingwei met Zhao Wanyun as a part-time worker during University. They were in love for two years. After Huo Tingwei graduated and joined the company, they broke up due to the Huo family.

 

Cui Jing remembered that at that time, she was allowed to contact Huo Tingwei at home. If she liked, she could try to get along with him. The first time she met Huo Tingwei, she asked him if he was willing and if there was anyone he liked. He said that there was no one else he liked. He said that he was willing to communicate with her voluntarily, and thus she was willing to try to develop a relationship with him.

 

Otherwise, was there any man that Cui Jing cannot obtain? Why else would it have been Huo Tingwei?!

 

As a result, Huo Tingwei who was unable to let go of his first love and also unable to give up his inheritance, chose to marry her for his ambitions. Huo’s mother came forward and gave Zhao Wanyun a sum of money and told her not to come to B city again. Zhao Wanyun accepted 10 million yuan and left for more than 20 years. Until she died and no longer had money, she asked Zhao Sijia to go to Huo Tingwei with her posthumous note. Because she had a firm belief that Huo Tingwei will take good care of her old daughter.

 

Cui Jing’s hands were shaking when she looked at the investigation results. She was angry!

 

Huo Tingwei didn’t know that Zhao Wanyun had taken money when she left, and she probably regarded that woman as his heart, right? He even thought that Zhao Wanyun had been with him for two years and didn’t know that he was the son of a rich family. He thought that she didn’t worship money at all and was the kindest and most beautiful girl.

 

Cui Jing was going to vomit. Why were men always so stupid? The type of aura emitted by Huo Tingwei that was formed as he was raised since he was young in a wealthy family, only blind people cannot see it. The kind of clothes, shoes, and watches that he wore, which one of them can be afforded by ordinary people? Even when he was eating, with the pickiness of food due to the way he was raised, no one will ever think of him as poor. But his shrewdness in the market all failed here, and he fell in love with a kind Cinderella, and his love became what he wanted but cannot obtain.

 

Cui Jing cannot accept that the person lying next to her in bed has been hiding this in his heart for such a long time. He has been hiding this since they met. What is she exactly? She cannot accept that Huo Tingwei still has to protect that woman’s daughter, treating that to Zhao Sijia better than Huo Wei.

 

Once upon a time, Huo Tingwei’s actions only made her angry. Now that she knows the inside story, she just felt sick.

 

Cui Jing locked herself in her room for a day. That day Huo Wei went to work so when she didn’t see her mother when she got home, she thought that her mother went to rest early. It wasn’t until breakfast the next day that she realized that Cui Jing realized was different. However, Cui Jing was not so fragile at all, after being sad for a day and a night, she has already made up her mind.

 

But she then thought that Huo Wei had always admired her father. When she talked to Huo Wei, she asked tentatively, “Are you sure that you really won’t go return in the future? And not even recognize your Father anymore? “

 

Huo Wei of course gave her a positive answer, “I don’t want to recognize him as my father anymore, he doesn’t look at me as his own daughter either.”

 

Cui Jing calmed down and thought about it. Suddenly she felt as if something was amiss. Looking at Huo Wei, she asked, “Did you know something? You asked me to find out why your father was kind to Zhao Sijia that day. Did you already know the reason? “

 

Huo Wei looked at her face carefully and saw that although she was sad and angry, she didn’t look very fragile, so she nodded honestly, “I knew.”

 

Huo Wei reached out to hold Cui Jing’s hand and said in a soft voice, “Mom, I don’t want to recognize them as my father or my brother. I only have my mom in the future. No matter what decision you make, I will support you. Mom, you are less than 50 years old. There is still plenty of time so don’t let yourself be wronged any longer. Even if you are not Mrs. Huo, you still have me. In the future, I will make you proud of me and together we will live a better life than before.”

 

Cui Jing looked at her and slowly laughed, “You, you’ve already said everything, what else can I even say. No wonder why you suddenly disliked him so much that you didn’t even want to live at home and didn’t give him any face. Were you helping your mom out? “

 

“Of course! When I help mom, I am also helping myself, he crossed the line. Those that are the real deal would rely on their own abilities, but he’s not that kind of man. I despise him!”  Huo Wei sat next to Cui Jing and hugged her mother that was next to her, supporting and giving her strength as a daughter to her mother.

 

This was a very effective move. Cui Jing felt that the sadness that has been stuck in her chest for a long time has been relived. Huo Wei saw the situation and took the letters to Cui Jing.

 

Cui Jing did not expect that Huo Wei found the truth that way. Several letters were written to Huo Tingwei from Zhao Wanyun. There were three love letters when they were in love, written for delight, the sweetness of the whole text can be felt through the words. One was a farewell letter, which displayed the sadness when they were forced to break up, and also said she dare not promise Huo Tingwei to be his mistress, afraid Cui Jing will find out and not to let her go one day, and also said she will leave, never to see him again.

 

Zhao Wanyun clearly took the money and left, and yet she was talking about how hard it was to Huo Tingwei. It was no wonder Huo Tingwei couldn’t forget about her. And the bastard, Huo Tingwei, had thought of keeping a mistress in a love nest before they even got married. Such shamelessness!

 

The last one was Zhao Wanyun’s letter, which stated that she missed Huo Tingwei all these years, saying that she doesn’t love her husband, that over the years she has also neglected Zhao Sijia, and it was too late for her to repent at the end of her life. Seeing Zhao Sijia was like seeing her young self, and felt that Zhao Sijia was the continuation of her life.

 

So, she just couldn’t leave her daughter behind and asked Huo Tingwei to help take care of her. Also, she said that if they continued their relationship, maybe it would have been a different ending, where Zhao Sijia would be their daughter.

 

Cui Jing doesn’t really know what Huo Tingwei felt when he read this, but she thought that if she as Huo Tingwei, she would be taken away by Zhao Wanyun if she read this letter then and that she too felt that she owed Zhao Sijia, and should treat Zhao Sijia as his daughter and love her as his own.

 

She suddenly thought of some of Huo Tingwei’s actions. She used to look at them a little strangely. Now it was clear that he wanted to match Zhao Sijia with Huo Ming! This because he failed to be with his first love, and wanted his child to accomplish his dreams! Cui Jing was really disgusted by Huo Tingwei.

 

Looking at Zhao Wanyun’s posthumous note, it said that if Cui Jing disagreed, then he should ignore her request, after all, she and Huo Tingwei were never people from the same world, and the blame is can only be on the god of destiny.

 

This was the same kind of pretentious manner displayed by Zhao Sijia, she was just a gold digger, saying such lies so affectionately as if her situation was really helpless. Zhao Wanyun was much smarter than Zhao Sijia, all her words served as hooks, catching onto Huo Tingwei’s past helplessness so that when she and Huowei rejected Zhao Sijia, Huo Tingwei was angry.

 

She then thought that her family was doing fine, even if their relationship was not so deep, it wouldn’t just take a year for everyone to act so stiffly, right? So it was Huo Tingwei who transferred his resentment to his parents to them, and he might even feel upset when he sees them.

 

Cui Jing also saw the picture, Zhao Sijia and Zhao Wanyun looked very similar. Zhao Wanyun was really clever, and she completely saw through Huo Tingwei, holding onto him so tightly, and even providing her daughter a great outlook even before her death. Even if she failed, Huo Tingwei would not retaliate against a little girl like Zhao Sijia, causing no effect on Zhao Sijia. But if it succeeds, then Zhao Sijia’s standing will soar.

 

And she did succeed.

 

Cui Jing suddenly didn’t want to expose such inside information to Huo Tingwei so quickly. What if he realized and refused to divorce? She wanted to watch him in the dark, watch him be played by that woman, and then tell him everything at the best time, exposing the woman’s true face, let him see for himself who he fell in love with.

 

Huo Wei has been with Cui Jing to try and calm her down, and then she asked, “What do you want to do, mom?”

 

Cui Jing didn’t care much for love, and after seeing these, of course, the first thought was the family property. She was never a misguided person. At the time, the Cui Family Company was her dowry to Huo’s family, just to ensure that she lived a carefree life in Huo’s Family.

 

She has been through this for more than 20 years, now that she found out, she was a bit disgusted, but the happiness of the previous 20 years was real, and there was nothing to be unhappy about. So, her character now is still as young as when she was young, preferring to die with dignity than live with shame.

 

Huo Tingwei did to such an extent for Zhao Sijia,  she will never be able to continue living with Huo Tingwei. So how to divide the family property should be carefully considered, with her understanding of Huo Tingwei, Huo Tingwei will give her back what was once hers after he obtaining it.

 

Once upon a time, Huo Tingwei was clean and was never improper. She trusted Huo Tingwei. After ten years of marriage, after her parents died, she managed her own company. At that time, she had shares, but after ten years of annexation, dissolution, and reorganization, her shares were useless.

 

Their family has not had problems for more than 20 years. Huo Company can only be for Huo Ming and Huowei, so she didn’t need to worry at all, now she has a billion assets in her hand and 5% of the shares in Huo.

 

Without hesitation, Cui Jing went directly to the best divorce lawyers in the country and found several of them to form a divorce lawyer group.

 

Facing several lawyers, she pushed the check in front of them and said seriously, “I have only one request. I want the maximum amount of property available. The lawyer’s fee is one percent.”

 

One percent is not a small number. The Huo Company was very large. If the amount reached 10 billion, the lawyers will get 100 million. If it reached 50 billion, the lawyer will get 500 million! The blood of several lawyers was getting hot. They all knew the latest gossip of the Huo family. They once guessed that Zhao Sijia was an illegitimate daughter or a third party. Now the truth has come. They never thought that Zhao Sijia was the daughter of his first love.

 

Several people admired Zhao Wanyun’s methods, but they are also worried about the lawsuit. After all, the other party was Huo Tingwei, the chairman of Huo Company.

 

Who would have known that Lou Xiao wanted to back Cui Jing? Yun Xiao’s group was not inferior to Huo’s. and with Lou Xiao’s support, they immediately became more confident and will work hard to tear off Huo Tingwei’s flesh.

 

Huo Tingwei has been busy with the company for several days. He couldn’t get in touch with Cui Jing and Huo Wei several times, so he ignored them for the time being and focused on business.

 

He was busy for a long time that day. When he looked up, he saw Zhao Sijia outside. Zhao Sijia seemed to have cried, her eyes were red, her face as if she was wronged, while she was working hard. He immediately frowned and called Zhao Sijia in according via the company phone.

 

On the day of the exhibition, the directors asked him to dismiss Zhao Sijia. He thought that it was OK. Anyway, now Zhao Sijia was not happy in the company, so she just went to do something else. She liked painting and wanted to open a flower shop. She can still be happy.

 

However, as soon as he mentioned this to her, Zhao Sijia had a great reaction. She seemed very afraid that he would never care about her again. She also said that he had promised her mother that he would take care of her. At that time, he tenderly asked her to stay. Anyway, she was just an assistant. As long as he solved the issues faced by the company, the directors had nothing else to say. But now looking at Zhao Sijia, why did she seem even more unhappy? Huo Wei hasn’t been here recently. There should be no one else that is upset with her, right?

 

Huo Tingwei has been living at the top of the pyramid since he was a child. He can’t imagine the turbulent undercurrents and gossips in the company, and how much influence the abuse on the Internet had on Zhao Sijia?

 

Zhao Sijia was now like a cracked glass, which can be broken with just a touch.

 

Zhao Sijia lowered her head and entered the office. Secretary Qin saw it and thought about it. She looked for her prepared materials and started to print them.

 

Huo Tingwei got up and asked Zhao Sijia to sit on the sofa together and patiently asked, “What’s the matter? Are you uncomfortable or did someone hurt you? “

 

Zhao Sijia shook her head, but her tears could not help falling down. One by one, they fell on her knees. Huo Tingwei was worried when he saw them. “If you have something to tell me, I’ll help you. You don’t have to do this alone.”

 

Zhao Sijia thought of the clarification letter sent by the company last time, and now it has become something to mock her with. This time, there must be nothing to stop the online curses. She gave it up and just looked up at him with red eyes and said, “Can I… Can you please give me more to do? I stayed in the company to prove myself, I’m not a parasite like what they are saying.”

 

“You want to do more? What are you doing now?”  Huo Tingwei feels as if she was doing something every time he saw her. Isn’t she doing enough?

 

Zhao Sijia talked about her work after she came to the top floor, such as sending things to other departments, running errands, printing basic documents, replacing office supplies, sorting out old and unimportant files, etc.

 

As soon as Huo Tingwei heard this, he understood that these jobs were not only trivial but also meaningless. They can be done by anyone, which was not suitable for someone with the status of assistant to the chairman.

 

He frowned and asked Secretary Qin to come in and questioned her.

 

Secretary Qin had been prepared for a long time, went and showed her printed materials to Huo Tingwei. With a formulaic smile, she said: “Chairman, the statistics here are the work that Zhao Sijia has done since she joined the company. Her mistakes and losses, as well as the huge losses that she almost brought, are all listed. I think that this shows that she is not competent for these jobs.

 

As the secretary for the president is more serious than that of the general manager. The consequences of a few mistakes in many things can turn out to be extremely serious, so I decided not to let Zhao Sijia do these jobs for the time being. I know that the chairman of the board of directors intends to cultivate Zhao Sijia, so I specially collected information and compiled a career strategy.

 

I asked Zhao Sijia to start from the work of a new person. I wanted to wait for her to do her primary work well before giving her more difficult work, and then gradually upgrade her to the level as her colleagues in the secretary office. I just did not expect… it to take so many days, Zhao Sijia still made a lot of mistakes. I’m sorry, president. I didn’t bring her up properly with me. “

 

Huo Tingwei couldn’t say anything when he looked at the statistical table. He heard Huo Wei say that Zhao Sijia was a waste of space, and he thought Huo Wei was too much then. After all, Huo Wei spreads her self-willed words to the outside world all the time. He didn’t even believe that she stopped recognizing her brother, he just thought she was angry. He never did realize that she actually meant it.

 

Seeing how Huo Tingwei wasn’t speaking, Zhao Sijia seemed to agree with Secretary Qin. She anxiously explained: “I’m am in a bad mood these days. Every day, I can’t sleep and I’m not in a good mood. So, I’m a little slow in doing things. Sometimes I may be careless… But you must believe me, president, I’ll sort out my thoughts and stop caring about irrelevant things, and finish the work that you gave me. “

 

In her heart, Secretary Qin laughed. It was clear that she was responsible for arranging the tasks for Zhao Sijia. What does Zhao Sijia mean by asking Huo Tingwei to arrange it? Did the girl want to jump to the top and be Huo Tingwei’s direct responsibility? She should know her place.

 

Seeing Zhao Sijia’s mental state, Huo Tingwei sighed, “Sijia, I believe you, but you need to rest now. Work can be done at any time, you don’t have to be in a hurry. You listen to me now, go back home and have a good rest for a few days, and wait until the situation turns for the better. If you live alone now, you can move back to the Huo Family house. “

 

Zhao Sijia looked at Huo Tingwei and asked, “Do you mean that I can’t stay in the company anymore? Are you dismissing me? “

 

Huo Tingwei was silent for a moment, thinking, would she be fine once she was well-adjusted and did some basic work? It should be no problem for administrative clerks to specially distribute office supplies to various departments. So, he said, “Don’t worry, I’ll let you come back to work when you have had a good rest.”

 

Zhao Sijia broke into tears and smiled, “Thank you, president!”

 

Secretary Qin’s teeth were sore as she looked around. After what happened during this period, she was becoming more and more suspicious that the chairman of the board was interested in Zhao Sijia. Otherwise, what’s with soft-heartedness? This waste of space can still stay in the company. Fortunately, she listened to Huo Wei’s words and made preparations in advance, otherwise, she would be the one crying now.

 

Huo Tingwei was handing a paper towel to Zhao Sijia when Cui Jing took her lawyers in.

 

Huo Tingwei’s assistants followed behind, apologizing as they explained to Huo Tingwei, “President, Mrs. Huo has something to say to you. “

 

Huo Tingwei waved his hand to let him out, got up in doubt, and asked, “Why did you come to the company all of a sudden? What’s happening? “

 

Cui Jing glanced at Zhao Sijia, who stood to wipe her tears, smiled, and said: “Like mother like daughter. She can fool men with her tears, and managed to trick a person like Huo Tingwei round and round again.”

 

Huo Tingwei’s expression suddenly changes, and he stared at her, “What are you talking about?”

 

The door of the office has not even been closed, Secretary Qin was still trying to leave. She heard Zhao Sijia angrily said: “You can insult me, but why insult my mother? You and Huo Wei are more like mother like daughter. Both of you are arrogant and unreasonable! “

 

Secretary Qin bowed her head and took a breath. She didn’t know whether to support Zhao Sijia or Cui Jing. Combined with Cui Jing’s words just now, this scene seems to be a scene where the mistress is caught!

 

Secretary Qin slowed down her steps, and she and everyone outside the secretary’s office heard a heavy bomb being dropped.

 

“I want a divorce.” Cui Jing sat gracefully on the sofa, motioning the lawyers to take out the documents, and ignored Zhao Sijia.

 

Zhao Sijia was so stunned that she forgot to cry. Huo Tingwei was surprised and felt that this was just nonsense. “You have been away from home for so long and I couldn’t even find you. And yet you want to divorce me as soon as you come back?”

 

Cui Jing looked at Zhao Sijia and then at him, shrugged, and said, “Of course I want a divorce. This divorce can give her a place to stay.”

 

Zhao Sijia glared, “Stop with that nonsense, I don’t have that kind of relationship with the president!”

 

Zhao Sijia loved Huo Ming and knew that Huo Tingwei was her mother’s old lover. She was so misunderstood by Cui Jing that she blushed.

 

Huo Tingwei even said: “I took Sijia as my daughter, Cui Jing. I told you the reason. Her parents were kind to me. Why can’t you understand that?”

 

Cui Jing kept an elegant smile and said coldly, “You know very well why Wei Wei and I won’t be coming home. When we leave, your precious treasure here will be able to move back to Huo Family house again, wasn’t all of this done just to make room for her? Or… to make room for her mother? Huo Tingwei, you cheated on me for more than 20 years, and now you have to take care of that woman’s daughter. I want a divorce!”

 

Huo Tingwei looked at her in amazement and could not say a word.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
