Huo Linyuan looked at her apologetically, "Chu Wei, I'm sorry, this is the only way I can think of to prevent you from being taken away by Huo Yunting. During this period, please be patient for a while. When Huo Yunting relaxes his vigilance, I will arrange for someone to take you away."

You sent it abroad."

"Thank you, you have helped me a lot." Xia Chuwei thanked her in a low voice, "If you hadn't asked Mr. Huo to come and help, I'm afraid I would have been taken away by Huo Yunting."

Seeing the injury on the corner of Huo Linyuan's lip, Xia Chuwei felt a little guilty in her heart.

"Sorry for hurting you."

Huo Yunting showed no mercy at all with that punch. To this day, Huo Linyuan still has bruises on the corners of his lips.

Huo Linyuan smiled lightly and didn't care.

"This minor injury is nothing. Back then..." He paused and changed the subject. "Chu Wei, there are Huo Yunting's people guarding the outside. Before I make arrangements, try not to leave the villa.

"

Xia Chuwei looked at the gentle smile on the man's face, and her eyes suddenly became complicated.

"How did you and Huo Yunting have a grudge back then?" Realizing that she was a little presumptuous, Xia Chuwei added, "If it's inconvenient, you don't need to say it."

"This is not really a secret." Huo Linyuan walked to her side and looked at her tenderly with eyes as deep as the sea. "Besides, you and I don't have to be so polite before."

When she caught Huo Linyuan's gaze, Xia Chuwei subconsciously took a few steps back and avoided Huo Linyuan's eyes.

Huo Linyuan's eyes dimmed, but he didn't move forward.

"I know, you must have heard a lot of rumors about the relationship between Huo Yunting and me, saying that I was afraid that he would come back and shake my position, that I deliberately framed her, and even threatened you to destroy Huo Yunting.

....To be honest, I don’t really care about those rumors, and I have never tried to clarify them.”

"But it doesn't matter what others think of me. I don't want you to misunderstand me either."

He moved his eyes away and looked at the calm lake.

"I know that Mr. Huo should have talked to you several times." Huo Linyuan said indifferently, "After he found out that I was not related by blood to the Huo family, he always wanted to drive me out of the Huo family. If my parents had not been opposed, I would have been there long ago.

Got kicked out."

Having said this, he showed a self-deprecating chuckle.

"Although the Huo family has a great business, there have been constant disputes over the years. In order to seize the position of heir, everyone tried their best, even at the expense of killing their siblings."

"You must have heard that my father was in an accident and fell into a coma in his early years. In fact, the reason why my father was in the accident was because of the manipulations done by those in the Huo family for their own benefit."

"In order to protect herself, my mother transferred all the shares in her hands. Even after my father wakes up, those shares cannot be recovered."

"As a result, our lineage has been languishing and living a life of dependence on others. At that time, in order for me to grow up safely, my mother groveled to those in the Huo family and was even humiliated in various ways. She never fought back or scolded me.

Talk back."

"So I have secretly vowed since I was a child that when I grow up, I will not let my parents look at other people's faces."

"So, I kept hiding and holding back, pretending to be ordinary, letting others relax their vigilance against me, and secretly acquiring back the equity that should belong to our lineage bit by bit."

"Not long after, grandpa discovered this. At first he didn't stop it. But then..."

Huo Linyuan raised his head and looked at Xia Chuwei.

"After he knew that I was not related by blood to the Huo family, he started to stop me and even took Huo Yunting back to the Huo family."
