Text Chapter 186 The Boss of the Huo Family
got Huo Jingchen's address from Wu Qian's personal assistant, Huo Beixiao asked Huo Zhengde to get the car keys, walked out of the office without looking back, and walked to the door of the office building, where he was waiting for the driver to drive the car out of the garage below.
"Wait a minute, Xiao Xiao." Wu Qian chased after her from behind, holding a long-handled black umbrella in her hand, "The weather in New York is changeable during this time, bring an umbrella, when you can use it." ”
It's not a loss to be a mother, and I've always been more intimate than anyone else in doing things.
Huo Beixiao's expression, which had been very ugly since the morning, suddenly relaxed a lot, he took the umbrella, patted Wu Qian's shoulder, and comforted: "Don't be too tired of you and Dad, leave this matter to me." ”
Wu Qian nodded with satisfaction.
The car came, Huo Beixiao was just about to raise his feet and leave, but was grabbed by Wu Qian's arm.
Wu Qian's face wandered, her eyes flickered, and there seemed to be something unspeakable.
"What's wrong?" Huo Beixiao nodded at the driver, then stopped again, "Mom, if you have something to say, just say it." ”
He has always been impatient, but when facing Wu Qian at this time, he rarely suppressed his chaotic emotions.
Wu Qian sighed, her eyes wandered around, and found that no one noticed them, so she pulled Huo Beixiao away from the door.
He lowered his voice and said, "...... This, you will pay attention to what you will say, after all, it is your eldest brother. This shouldn't be said, don't say bald, you know? ”
Huo Beixiao frowned impatiently, and the look on his face became ugly.
His voice rose slightly: "Mom, you guys are too used to him." In the past twenty years, what have I not done to him? Isn't this company in New York something you and your dad worked hard to establish? If you go on like this, you will have nowhere to regret it! ”
Wu Qian hurriedly looked up and looked around, looking nervous, for fear of being listened to by others.
"Don't be so loud! You have to listen to us about this, and he will say the same thing when he stabs your father. Anyway, you remembered for me, if...... If this has anything to do with your eldest brother, you ask him to find a way to make up for it as soon as possible, so don't make a noise. You know? ”
Huo Beixiao waved his hand impatiently, broke free of Wu Qian's hand and strode into the car.
Wu Qian stomped her feet nervously on the spot, until she watched the car leave, then sighed and turned back to the office building.
There is a difference between foreign cars and domestic cars, the domestic driver's seat is on the left, while the foreign one is on the right, and it is stipulated that you should drive on the left side of the road, and all the traffic rules are the opposite of those in China.
Huo Beixiao has Lao Liu driving for him in and out of the country, and his own driving skills are not very good, but now he is not used to the driver's seat in the opposite direction, he does not dare to step on the accelerator, hesitates to turn, and suddenly drives him one head and two big.
I hadn't slept all night and was in a bad mood, Xia Nuanxin's dazzling stomach had to shake in front of his eyes from time to time, and the whole person's temper was rising slowly, and when he drove downstairs to Huo Jingchen's community, his whole person's impatience was about to burn to the peak.
As soon as the car drove to the entrance of the community, it was stopped by the doorman.
Huo Beixiao said that he was looking for someone, and reported the unit number and house number to the doorman, but the other party called Huo Jingchen's phone, but no one answered, so he said that he would not let Huo Beixiao in.
Just when Huo Beixiao was annoyed and wanted to rush in directly with one foot on the accelerator, Huo Jingchen finally answered the phone.
Only then did the doorman register Huo Beixiao's license plate number and let the person in.
Opening the door, Huo Jingchen greeted Huo Beixiao with a hippie smile on his head against a messy chicken nest.
"What wind brought you here? Aren't you in the country? He walked to the freezer, brought himself a bottle of mineral water, and a can of drink for Huo Beixiao.
Huo Beixiao didn't answer, he put his hands around his chest and looked at Huo Jingchen condescendingly.
Huo Beixiao is much taller than Huo Jingchen, and he exercises on time all day long, and the whole person seems to be much stronger than Huo Jingchen.
Huo Jingchen's face has the unique paleness of people with irregular lives, under his eyes, there is a very thick dark circle under his eyes, he is casually draped in a bathrobe, the whole person has snow-white skin, and he has the romantic posture of a swinger brother.
Seeing that Huo Beixiao didn't answer, Huo Jingchen didn't care, in the past 20 years, he had already understood Huo Beixiao's temperament.
He smiled and poured a bottle of mineral water into his stomach, then put the drink on the bar in the living room, leaned back crookedly, and said, "Nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, say?" What's the matter? ”
"You still have the face to ask? What do you do yourself that you don't know yourself? Huo Beixiao snorted coldly, "Did you embezzle the company's tens of millions of dollars of public funds?" ”
Although it was a question, Huo Beixiao's tone was very determined.
The bad things he did were exposed by others in front of him, and under normal circumstances, that person would at least become very embarrassed, but Huo Jingchen didn't.
He just raised his carefully trimmed eyebrows, sighed softly, and smiled: "So that's the case." I'm sorry, I temporarily transferred the funds to a friend for emergency relief, he should have called me back last month, but because his guests dragged his payment, so it is not in place yet, and at the end of this month, it will definitely be able to make up. ”
Looking at Huo Jingchen's casual tone, Huo Beixiao's anger rushed straight to his head, but he has a characteristic of this person, the more annoyed he is, the more undisturbed his face is.
He stretched out his finger and tapped rhythmically on the bar, with an indescribable calm in his voice, as if he was not facing the same person who had secretly used the company's spare funds to put the company in danger.
His tone was flat as if he were talking about the weather, but the threat was too much to ignore.
"Public funds cannot be embezzled without authorization, which is the most basic quality of a company leader. Big brother, do you really not know or are you pretending to be stupid? The nature of this matter can be big or small, and if it is serious, it will go to court. ”
Huo Jingchen seemed to have heard some funny joke, and the whole person laughed wildly: "Good brother, didn't my parents hand over the American subsidiary to me?" I don't even have the right to dispose of some spare funds? What kind of leader am I? ”
When he said the last sentence, Huo Jingchen stood on tiptoe and leaned towards Huo Beixiao across the bar, although he was smiling on his face, the smile did not reach the bottom of his eyes at all.
"Huo Beixiao, don't stretch your hand too long, just manage the domestic head office......"
He lowered his voice, and the expression on his face instantly turned cold, "This is all what your Huo family owes me, whether it is mine or not, you all have to give it to me...... I'm just driving my rights a little earlier, so you don't care too wide, right? ”
Huo Beixiao chuckled heavily in his heart, and where Huo Jingchen couldn't see, his eyes suddenly widened.
One day more than 20 years ago, it was Huo Beixiao's fourth birthday, and he clamored for Wu Qian and Huo Zhengde to take him to the amusement park to see elephants.
He has actually been to the amusement park many times, but every time he goes, either Sister-in-law Lin accompanies him or the driver Lao Liu. Seeing that other children came hand in hand with their parents, the young Huo Beixiao didn't know how to envy him.
On this day, Wu Qian and Huo Zhengde couldn't resist Huo Beixiao, so they had to agree to fulfill their son's small wish in their busy schedules.
But early that morning, there was an urgent incident in Huo's Group, and Wu Qian and Huo Zhengde had no choice but to hurry to the company. Seeing this, Huo Beixiao was willing to pull them and not let them go.
There was no way, Wu Qian had to ask the driver Lao Liu to take Huo Beixiao to the playground to wait for them, and promised him to go over as soon as the matter was dealt with. Huo Beixiao gave up.
But he waited and waited in the playground until it was time for dinner in the afternoon, but he still didn't see the shadow of Wu Qian Huo Zhengde.
He was so angry and angry in his heart that he was angry with Lao Liu and refused to even eat lunch.
Lao Liu had no choice but to call Wu Qian, and after the call was connected, he learned that Wu Qian and Huo Zhengde had a car accident on the way to the playground.
A large truck full of goods toppled over on their car, and now both of them are in the hospital.
At that time, the driver for them was a female employee in her thirties, named Xu Qinghe. Huo Zhengde and Wu Qian were both sitting in the back seat of the car.
After Xu Qinghe saw the truck pressed down, he knew that they couldn't completely dodge, and one end of the front and rear of the car would definitely be crushed by the truck.
Between the lightning and flint, Xu Qinghe slammed the steering wheel and threw out the rear of the car where Wu Qian and Huo Zhengde were sitting at the last moment, while she herself was sent directly under the truck and died on the spot.
Afterwards, Wu Qian and Huo Zhengde learned that this Xu Qinghe was a single mother, and her husband died of illness not long after they got married, leaving her alone pregnant and giving birth to a son. I'm five years old now.
Now that he is dead, her relatives are not willing to accept a five-year-old boy who will have to go to a welfare home if no one adopts him.
In order to repay Xu Qinghe for saving his life, Wu Qian and Huo Zhengde thought about it again and again, so they adopted the child, and with Huo Zhengde, they were surnamed Huo.
That child is Huo Beixiao's elder brother, Huo Jingchen.
But these things, Wu Qian and Huo Zhengde have always been hiding from Huo Beixiao and Huo Jingchen. If it weren't for an accident, Huo Beixiao bumped into Wu Qian and Huo Zhengde talking, he wouldn't have known this fact.
After knowing this, Wu Qian repeatedly told him to keep it secret, and not let Huo Jingchen know the truth, lest he have ideas. Huo Beixiao also agreed.
After all, after so many years, the relationship between the two has long been like brothers, and Huo Jingchen's mother also saved the lives of his parents, so everything should be said.
So after knowing about this, Huo Beixiao had a lot of complaints about Huo Jingchen's consistent style of doing things, but his attitude on his face was better than before.
It's just that......
Huo Beixiao frowned and looked at Huo Jingchen, what did he mean by what he said just now?
