To My Dear Mr. Huo

Dinner is not as lively as lunch. Many people were too drunk to get up.

The most powerful among them is Zhang Yichen. Not only was he drunk, he was drugged. Even if the doctor treated her, she still couldn't wake up.

Before Huo Yangxiu went downstairs to eat, he paid a special visit to Zhang Yichen.

Naturally, she didn't know what Zhang Yichen had just experienced. She just assumed that he drank a few too many drinks because he was too happy today.

But Su Peizhen knew very well that Zhang Yichen did not drink too much today.

Zhang Yichen is still upstairs, but Su Qingsang doesn't look good now?

The combination of these phenomena was enough for Su Peizhen to think about what interesting things happened just now.

A slightly gloating smile appeared on her face.

What did Zhang Yichen do before? She really started to get curious.

There were fewer people at dinner, but the excitement was still there. At the dinner table, cups and glasses are exchanged, and under the table, people have different thoughts.

Su Qingsang had no intention of socializing today. All her attention was on Huo Jinyao and Liu Tongjia.

She always felt that things should not be like this, and the relationship between mother and child should not be like this.

Although she and Li Qianxue were no longer together after they met, Li Qianxue's care and love for her never diminished.

Daily video calls and frequent messages to her. The words are filled with concern.

She understood what Li Qianxue was thinking. She wanted to make up for the missed love between mother and daughter over the years.

But what about Liu Tongjia?

Huo Jinyao has grown so big. If Liu Tongjia really wants to compensate, what can he do?

What's more important is that Liu Tongjia probably won't think of compensation at all.

She couldn't help but go see Liu Tongjia. She also seemed a little distracted.

She went to see Huo Jinyao again, and Huo Jinyao took a piece of fish and put it in her bowl.

He gave her a look, and she understood what it meant.

If possible, she really wanted to make it clear to Liu Tongjia, but Huo Jinyao wouldn't let her.

The meal was obviously delicious, but Su Qingsang found it tasteless.

She knew it was a dead end. But she really wanted to untie the knot.

When Su Peizhen was talking to Huo Yifan, out of the corner of his eye, he just saw Huo Jinyao picking up food for Su Qingsang.

She narrowed her eyes slightly.

Could it be that Zhang Yichen didn't do what she expected?

How can it be?

If Zhang Yichen didn't have Chinese medicine, wouldn't her actions today be in vain?

She lowered her eyes and bit her lip. There was a somewhat cold smile in those charming eyes.

Zhang Yichen is in the army and rarely comes out. So, what else can she do to have a chance?

What if she stays here tonight?

Su Peizhen didn't expect that even if she stayed tonight, she wouldn't have a chance.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, Li Junsheng also visited Rongcheng. Huo Jinyao went to the party with them.

In the past, he would have called Zhang Yichen. But not today. Yesterday's incident finally created a gap in his heart.

Regarding Zhang Yichen, he thought that he might not be able to be as frank and honest as before.

The only person who could make Huo Jinyao feel more comfortable was Su Qingsang, who was completely unaware of Zhang Yichen's thoughts.

………………

Zhang Yichen woke up on the second day of the Dragon Boat Festival.

He is a soldier and strong-willed. If it hadn't been for the special circumstances yesterday, he would never have allowed himself to make a mistake. Don't allow yourself to lose control.

But unexpectedly, despite all precautions, he ended up getting drunk. Forget it if you're drunk. He actually lost his composure.

Zhang Yichen rubbed his forehead. There is a fragment of yesterday's memory. But there was a period that was particularly sobering.

He thought it was an illusion when Nephrite was full of warmth and fragrance.

But when he was drunk and hugged Huo Jinyao, thinking he was Su Qingsang, he remembered a thing or two.

At this moment, he could only be grateful that he did not lose his composure in front of Su Qingsang.

He didn't know that he had lost his composure in front of Su Qingsang. Fortunately, Su Qingsang knew that he had been drugged and drunk again.

Zhang Yichen didn't know he was drugged, he only knew he was drunk.

He has a good drinking capacity, and he used to just sleep when he was drunk. This is the reason why he dares to drink without worry.

But why did it go out of control yesterday? Zhang Yichen couldn't understand, but one thing he was sure of was this.

Huo Jinyao, he knows.

He buried his face in his hands, obviously he wanted to keep it hidden.

Now, what to do?

………………

Su Peizhen didn't look particularly good after leaving the Huo family.

Su Qingsang did not stay at Huo's house yesterday. She left with Huo Jinyao after dinner.

Seeing how protective Huo Jinyao was towards her when she left, Su Peizhen knew that what Zhang Yichen did yesterday had no impact whatsoever.

This made her very unhappy.

The plan failed. I don’t know when I want to find such an opportunity next time.

Her mood in this regard is particularly urgent, and her mood is particularly easy to see.

Her expression was so obvious that Huo Yifan noticed it.

"What’s wrong with you?"

"It's okay." Su Peizhen didn't want to tell Huo Yifan about his design of Zhang Yichen.

She knew very well that if she told Huo Yifan about this matter, Huo Yifan would object due to the relationship between Huo Yangxiu and Mr. Huo.

"My gut tells me that the bad thing you just wanted to do failed. Right?"

Huo Yifan is such a smart person. You can tell by looking at Su Peizhen's expression that her plan must have failed.

He raised the corners of his lips and smiled evilly.

"Don't tell me that what you wanted to design today was Su Qingsang, but it failed."

"Yeah, I failed."

Su Peizhen curled her lips and looked slightly cold: "You should feel disappointed that I failed. What do you mean by gloating like this?"

"It's nothing." Huo Yifan pulled her body into his arms: "You are in the Huo family, designing Su Qingsang, you should tell me anyway. This is the Huo family after all. Huo Jinyao is here, you can No chance. No matter how much Auntie dislikes Su Qingsang, she won't let you do anything. You have to know that this is a very embarrassing thing. "

Su Peizhen didn't say anything. In fact, she just wanted to make Su Qingsang look bad today and let Huo Jinyao know that he had been cuckolded.

Today's plan was a little hasty. If she was more familiar with the Huo family and had more opportunities, she believed she would succeed.

"Okay, don't think about it. You don't know how much Huo Jinyao protects Su Qingsang. If you want to trick her next time, it's best to do it when he's not around."

Of course, it would be easier to do it if you were outside the Huo family.

Su Peizhen narrowed his eyes and began to seriously think about the feasibility of this matter.

But don't worry, there are more important things to do now.

"Okay, Su Qingsang, I will deal with it. Just focus on the company. We can't lose this time."

"Don't worry. Don't you still believe me?"

Huo Yifan smiled openly, thinking that all his actions were secret and no one could notice.

Su Peizhen didn't like his proud look. Part of her personality was like Su Chenghui. She likes to think more about things.

She always had a hunch that things would not be as simple as Huo Yifan thought.

But now seeing his confident look, Su Pei really didn't want to hit him. Turned over and fell asleep.

When I got up in the morning, I met Liu Tongjia and found that her face looked very ugly.

Su Peizhen had wanted to cooperate with her before. But now that there was no chance of cooperation, she naturally thought that Liu Tongjia was trying to show her off. As a result, Su Pei was really in a worse mood.

When I got home, Xiang Caiping was reading the newspaper in the living room. When he saw her entering the door, he raised his head and glanced at her with a very complicated expression.

"Mom, I'm back."

Su Peizhen changed her shoes and walked to the sofa opposite Xiang Caiping and sat down.

There are fruits on the table, all washed. She picked up a bunch of grapes and ate two of them. She found that Xiang Caiping was still looking at her, and she sat upright uncomfortably.

"What's wrong? Mom? Have you had breakfast? I haven't eaten yet. Can you see if there is anything to eat?"

"Aunt Zhao is in the kitchen, you asked her."

Xiang Caiping glanced at her, but still couldn't ask the question.

Su Peizhen went to the kitchen to find something to eat without realizing it. Xiang Caiping looked at her back with a confused expression.

When Su Peizhen came out, he found that Xiang Caiping was no longer in the living room.

She was somewhat relieved. When I was with Li Qianxue before. Li Qianxue always followed her.

Of course, if she did something wrong, Li Qianxue would also blame her. Tell her what's not okay.

But ever since she met Xiang Caiping, she has always been a little afraid of herself.

Su Peizhen understood that Xiang Caiping didn't want to lose her daughter, so she always followed her.

She enjoyed this feeling in her heart. In her opinion, Xiang Caiping would never leave her or betray her.

After all, the blood relationship is there, and she believes that Xiang Caiping can't escape.

All I can say is that Su Pei is so confident.

Xiang Caiping returned to the room, locked the door, walked to the table in the room, unlocked the last drawer, and took out a photo album from it.

She wasn't much into photography when she was younger. So there aren’t many photos.

The photo album was from when she lived with Su Qingsang. She took a lot of photos of her, and some of them were photos of her and Su Qingsang.

And with Huo Jinyao.

At the end of the album, there is a photo she put there after she came back.

That photo was from when the child was just born. She didn't know why she asked the nurse to take a photo of the child.

Look at the child back then, and then think about Su Peizhen now.

Xiang Caiping couldn't explain how she felt. She turned the page and looked at the photo of her and Su Qingsang together in front of her again.

At that time, her smile was real. She was also in a happy mood.

But now——

Can't think. Xiang Caiping felt uncomfortable just thinking about it.

She felt that she really didn't know how to get rid of the breath in her heart, and she didn't know how to relieve her depression.

She was with Su Qingsang before, and on New Year's Day, she even gave up being with Huo Jinyao and went to Japan with her.

Later, during the New Year, in order to take care of herself, she did not follow Huo Jinyao back to Rongcheng to pay New Year greetings.

Su Qingsang certainly knows how many rules a big family like the Huo family has. But she did it anyway.

Now, Su Peizhen had nothing to do, but he ran out early and stayed outside all day.

She didn't even have a phone number. I didn't tell myself where she went, or what she was busy with that day.

And yesterday was the Dragon Boat Festival. Even though this festival is not like the Spring Festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival is mainly about reunion.

But at this time, Xiang Caiping was still disappointed.

Su Peizhen really didn't take her mother seriously.

She closed the photo album and locked the bottom photo drawer again. The expression on his face no longer showed the slightest joy.

This daughter, what on earth is she going to do?

……………

Huo Jinyao was listening to Yang Wenchang talk about Huo Yifan's activities these days.

It seems that his plan was implemented quite well. Because Huo Yifan didn't become suspicious, but believed them.

He raised the corners of his lips, with a faint smile in his eyes.

This incident was one of the rare things that made him feel good recently.

"Keep watching. I'm sure he'll be hooked soon."

Yang Wenchang nodded and was about to leave. The internal line rang, someone was looking for Huo Jinyao.

Huo Jinyao met Zhang Yichen again after a few days.

He was not as disheveled as he was on Dragon Boat Festival, nor was he as red-faced as that night.

He stood there, as straight as a pine.

Huo Jinyao squinted his eyes and did not miss the flash of a guilty conscience in Zhang Yichen's eyes.

"Cousin, are you here?"

He didn't get up in a hurry when he saw Zhang Yichen like before.

Pressing the internal line, someone brought tea. After the secretary left, he motioned for Zhang Yichen to sit down.

Zhang Yichen didn't sit down, he still stood there.

"I thought my cousin had gone back to the army. Why hasn't he gone back yet?"

"Go back, come back again."

"Is something wrong?"

Huo Jinyao's attitude was much calmer than before, which is enough to explain the problem.

Zhang Yichen knew that he already knew, but he still found it difficult to speak.

"That day, sorry, I was drunk."

Zhang Yichen's voice was very soft, but he didn't mean to excuse himself.

"That day? Cousin, what day are you talking about?" Huo Jinyao seemed not to understand. He turned to look at Zhang Yichen with a puzzled expression.

Zhang Yichen stood up straighter. His hands on his sides tightened slightly and then quickly loosened.

"It's just that the Dragon Boat Festival happened on the wrong day."

"Cousin, you also said you were drunk. Since An An is drunk, I won't take it seriously."

Zhang Yichen looked at him and took a step forward: "I came today not to hide or have any other meaning. I just want to say that this is just my unilateral intention. Su Qingsang doesn't know, so you ——”

"Cousin."

Huo Jinyao stood up suddenly. He walked around his oversized desk, walked step by step to Zhang Yichen, and stood still.

"what do you want to say in the end?"

"I just want to tell you that Su Qingsang doesn't know. No matter what you heard or knew that day, it was all a unilateral act on my part. I -"

"Cousin."

Huo Jinyao interrupted him again. His expression was cold, and his eyes were even colder: "Are you trying to explain to Qingsang?"

"I don't want you to misunderstand-"

"I didn't misunderstand. But you, if you continue to explain, I will really misunderstand."

Huo Jinyao's eyes were sharp and his expression was serious.

"Cousin, I have always respected you, both before and now."

"But I don't think you need to explain this time."

He took a step forward and almost stood with Zhang Yichen. The bodies of the two people were very close.

Equally tall and equally imposing.

Zhang Yichen has the fierceness that he has learned from the military.

Huo Jinyao, on the other hand, has the momentum to remain at the top for so many years.

The two people looked at each other like this. There is an inexplicable feeling of sparks flying in the air.

Huo Jinyao half raised his chin and looked at Zhang Yichen with extremely sharp eyes.

"Cousin, you don't need to explain your thoughts. As for Qingsang, there is no need for you to explain her. She is my wife. I believe in her. I believe in her character. Just as I also want my cousin's character. .”

"I have forgotten what happened that day. My cousin was just drunk. So my cousin should forget it too."

Zhang Yichen pursed his lips into a straight line and glanced at Huo Jinyao.

"You know how much I drink. I've never been drunk before. This time it was actually an accident. So like you said. I will forget."

Over the years, every step Zhang Yichen took was within his plan.

But he never thought that he would encounter something unexpected.

That is the existence of Su Qingsang. He tried hard to restrain and suppress it, but he didn't expect that his power would be broken without him knowing it.

Not only did he let Huo Jinyao know his thoughts, but also——

Huo Jinyao did not answer his words, but after staring at Zhang Yichen's face for a long time, he spoke softly.

"Although what happened that day was an accident, I think if my cousin has nothing to do next time, he should come to Huo's house less often."

Zhang Yichen suddenly raised his head and looked at Huo Jinyao. His expression was both shocked and hurt.

"My cousin thinks he's good at drinking, but is he just as good at taking medicine?"

"What do you mean?"

"It's not interesting." Huo Jinyao's voice was light: "My cousin always said that he accidentally got drunk. That's why he lost his composure. But what my cousin didn't know was that someone was drinking the sobering soup I gave him that day. It was drugged. It was because of the drug that my cousin lost his temper like that."

"Someone drugged me?"

Zhang Yichen never thought of this possibility. After all, when he woke up, Huo Jinyao and Su Qingsang had already left.

The doctor was not here, and it was impossible for Liu Tongjia to take the initiative to talk about this matter.

No one knew that Zhang Yichen had been drugged, except Su Qingsang and a few others.

"Yes. My cousin was drugged, and then under the influence of the drug, he did things out of control."

"Who?" Zhang Yichen's expression was not very good. He did not expect that he would encounter such a thing in the Huo family.

"It doesn't matter who drugged me." Huo Jinyao looked at him with a solemn expression: "What matters is, why did he drug his cousin?"

"Jin Yao?"

"Cousin, you haven't thought about it. You think your thoughts are deeply hidden and well concealed. But maybe someone just sees it?"

"Not only did that person see it, he also took advantage of it. In fact, the person the other party wanted to hurt may not be you, but Qingsang."

Huo Jinyao's face became more and more serious as he spoke: "You are in the room, you are drunk, and your will is unclear. But where is Qingsang?"

Five thousand words. Lunar New Year's eve. Everyone is celebrating the New Year. Yue Ma also had a busy day today. I haven't taken a shower yet. There's still a bunch of laundry to do. I'm going to take a shower now. I wish you all a happy new life. Good luck in the Year of the Dog. The face is getting more and more beautiful. There is more and more money in my pocket. The mentality is getting younger and younger! Love you. mwah!
