Chapter 143 Birthday Party
“Dad, what happened to you today? Why is it so strange?” Huo Yunxi frowned as he faintly felt that something was strange.
Huo Zhengxiong shook his head, touched his daughter’s hair and smiled, “Alright, I feel tired and want to rest for a while. You can go back first.”
Hearing the sound of Huo Yunxi tiptoeing away and the door of the ward being closed, Huo Zhengxiong’s closed eyes opened again, and he was thinking about all sorts of things.
Although the doctor said that his body was fine, but just in case, some things were better planned early.
“Secretary Song, come to my ward at nine tomorrow morning.”
After hanging up the phone, Huo Zhengxiong felt a little more at ease. He closed his eyes and fell asleep unconsciously.
The next morning, Huo Zhengxiong’s ward was filled with people from the Huo Clan. Seeing Xia Luobing standing beside Huo Yunxi, Liu Yan turned around irritably.
Today, Huo Zhengxiong had all the people in the family come here, so she had no confidence, so she did not have the mood to face Xia Luobing coldly with her eyebrows crossed.
“Sister-in-law, what do you think father is going to do?” Huo Yunxi looked in the direction of the ward uneasily.
Charlotte shook her head.
Huo Yunqi and Feng Shuo stood on the side with silent expressions, making it impossible for others to see through their thoughts.
“Creak!”
The ward door opened. Lawyer Song, who had golden eyes, opened the ward door from the inside to take care of the people outside.
“Old Master, what’s wrong with you?” Liu Yan looked at Huo Zhengxiong worriedly.
She had to be strong all her life, and she was also angry about Huo Zhengxiong’s cheating back then, but after all, they had supported each other for most of her life. Seeing Huo Zhengxiong clearly getting older these past few days, she felt really uncomfortable in her heart.
“All of you, sit down!” Huo Zhengxiong leaned against the pillow and his spirits were pretty good. He looked at the four of them and said in a deep voice, “I called you here today because of the will!”
“Dad!” Huo Yunqi frowned and said in a deep voice, “The doctor said that your operation was a success!”
Huo Yunxi wiped his tears and sobbed, “Dad, don’t scare me!”
Feng Shuo frowned as he watched Huo Zhengxiong remain silent.
Liu Yan wiped her eyes with a napkin and looked at the three of them. She said in a deep voice, “Listen to your father.”
Huo Zhengxiong patted Liu Yan’s hand and signaled for Lawyer Song to show the contents of the will to the three of them. Then, he said indifferently, “I have 30% of the shares in the company. Yunqi and Feng Shuo each have 10%, Luo Bing and your mother each have 5%.”
Liu Yan was stunned for a moment and frowned, “Where’s Yunxi?”
Although she felt that Huo Zhengxiong’s testament was a little unreliable, she couldn’t help but notice these details since she had already said this.
Huo Yunxi hurriedly shook his head, “Mom, I don’t want it!”
She was already very happy that her father had allowed her to be with Ye Shaochen.
Huo Yunqi said in a deep voice, “Grandpa left 10% of the shares to Yun Xi before he died. Leave them to me for safekeeping before he gets married.”
Huo Zhengxiong knew about this.
Huo Yunxi was stunned for a moment, and his eyes were wet, “Grandpa …”
She had always felt that her grandfather liked her big brother and did not like her very much. She did not expect that her grandfather would leave her shares early.
Charlotte wasn’t a sentimental person, but she couldn’t help but feel her throat dry when she talked about the will in such a solemn setting in the ward. “I don’t want it,” she whispered.
“Luo Bing, in the future, you and Yunqi will support each other and live a good life.” Huo Zhengxiong looked at the two of them and said.
Xia Luo Bing wanted to say something else, but Huo Yunqi held her hand from behind. Her slightly cold palm made Xia Luo Bing couldn’t help but look up at him. Huo Yunqi’s eyes were filled with exhaustion and pleading.
He didn’t want her to say that the two of them were about to divorce at this time, so Xia Luobing could only nod at Huo Zhengxiong and say, “Thank you, Dad.”
“If there’s nothing else, all of you can go back.” Huo Zhengxiong looked at the three of them and said indifferently, “Just let your mother stay with me.”
Liu Yan nodded and signaled for Huo Yunqi and the others to leave.
There were only two people left in the ward, but Liu Yan’s eyes became increasingly damp. She muttered, “I shouldn’t have treated you so badly these past few years …”
Because of Feng Shuo’s matter, Liu Yan could not get past that obstacle in her heart. She only felt that Huo Zhengxiong owed her, and his temper became even more arrogant and domineering. She did not expect that he would endure for so many years
“I’m sorry.” Huo Zhengxiong reached out to wipe Liu Yan’s tears and comforted her, “Am I not fine? I’m just making a will just in case. Don’t worry.”
Liu Yan quickly wiped away her tears and nodded her head, “I know, once you recover, let’s go to Europe, no matter what happens here.”
“Alright.” Huo Zhengxiong nodded at Liu Yan, “I’ve seen that child Ye Shaochen. He’s not bad. You can help Yunxi.”
Liu Yan frowned, “But …”
“You, you have to have a strong personality, and Yunqi’s personality is cold. Don’t be awkward with your daughter because of this.” Huo Zhengxiong held Liu Yan’s hand and sighed, “What if I don’t show up one day?”
“Stop talking. I’ll just promise them!” Liu Yan hurriedly nodded her head, “You be fine, I promise them everything!”
Yunqi and Xia Luobing sat on the bench in the hospital garden. After a long silence, Xia Luobing said, “I will pay you back the shares in the future.”
“Bing Bing, let’s not talk about this now, okay?” Huo Yunqi pinched her heart and said in a deep voice, “I’m too tired.”
Xia Luobing was stunned. The resistance in his heart quietly collapsed, and his heart started to ache. He nodded and said, “Alright, don’t worry too much. Dad will be fine!”
Huo Yunqi remained silent for a while and said indifferently, “My relationship with Dad has never been close. I don’t like his cowardice and irresponsibility, but today I feel like I never understood him.”
The hospital was a depressing and reflective place. After Huo Yunqi finished speaking, she fell silent. He didn’t say anything else. Xia Luobing just sat there quietly and stayed silent with him.
Feng Shuo stood not far away from Lian Lang and looked at the two people sitting together. His expression was ugly. Huo Yunqi already held the shares left to him by the old president of Huo Clan, but Huo Zhengxiong still gave him 10%. Doesn’t this mean that he never had a chance to turn around in front of Huo Yunqi?
Wasn’t there any guilt when he killed his mother?
Anger, unwillingness like hot oil poured on the blaze, the raging fire almost made him lose his rationality: “I am unwilling.”
Since Huo Zhengxiong had never treated him like a son, he didn’t have to worry so much. He would definitely make everyone regret treating him like this!
Feng Shuo did not look at the two people nestling together anymore. The figure that turned around and left carried an indescribable coldness and determination.
At Huo Zhengxiong’s insistence, the doctor finally agreed to let him out of the hospital, but repeatedly warned him not to get angry, otherwise he would definitely not be so lucky next time.
“How about we stay a few more days?” Liu Yan asked cautiously with a nervous expression, “Why are you in such a hurry to leave the hospital?”
Huo Zhengxiong patted her hand on the sofa and smiled, “I can’t celebrate my birthday in the hospital, can I?”
Seeing that Huo Zhengxiong’s spirits were indeed much better than before, Liu Yan felt a little relieved. Seeing Huo Yunxi come in, she pretended to be angry and said, “Your father’s birthday is going to be a little more lively. You should eat more snacks and don’t run around.”
“Alright!” Huo Yunxi hurriedly nodded his head and trotted over. He hooked Huo Zhengxiong’s neck and said coquettishly, “Dad, if you have any ideas, I will definitely do it!”
Huo Zhengxiong patted his daughter’s face and smiled, “There is no need to go to a hotel this year, nor to invite anyone else. It’s fine for a family to sit and eat together.”
“Father is in good health. There are too many people making noise. The family is fine.” Huo Yunxi said with a smile.
Liu Yan glared at Huo Yunxi with an awkward expression, “When the time comes, call that Ye Shaochen over.”
“Mom?” Huo Yunxi’s beautiful eyes widened in surprise, “Are you telling the truth?”
“Yes.” Liu Yan nodded, “Your father agreed. I have no choice.”
Huo Zhengxiong’s birthday party was scheduled for the weekend night. Huo Yunqi picked up Xia Luobing from work and went back to the Huo Clan. Feng Shuo had already arrived home a step earlier and was talking with Huo Zhengxiong. Houyun Xi would occasionally joke and laugh in the living room. It was very lively.
“Dad, Mom.” Xia Luobing greeted Huo Zhengxiong and Liu Yan with a smile, “This is a present I gave to Dad.”
Today, it was rare for the old man to be happy. Xia Luobing and Huo Yunqi also acted like a bunch of loving couples. Everything presented a perfect beauty.
“Everyone is here. Let’s eat!” Liu Yan rarely looked at Xia Luobing and personally came to help Huo Zhengxiong into the restaurant.
Huo Yunqi and Xia Luobing sat together. Huo Yunxi sat next to Xia Luobing, followed by Ye Shaochen, Feng Shuo, and Huo Zhengxiong.
“Dad, I wish you good health.” Huo Yunqi raised a glass of wine to Huo Zhengxiong and said, “Drink some water.”
Huo Zhengxiong nodded and smiled, “Good, good!”
Then there was Xia Luobing. Huo Zhengxiong smiled and nodded his head. He was much more loving than before. “Bing Bing, Dad wants you to be with Yunqi.”
Liu Yan glanced at Xia Luobing and said indifferently, “If you really have filial piety, you should have a child earlier. In the future, the two of us will just take care of our grandchildren and not interfere in your lives.”
Xia Luobing ‘s face turned pale, child? In this lifetime, she would probably never have a child!
Sensing that Xia Luobing’s expression was not good, Huo Yunxi tugged at her clothes and stood up with a smile, “It’s time for me to propose a toast to Dad.”
Seeing that Xia Luobing did not respond, Liu Yan’s expression was a little bad. She said in a deep voice, “Did you listen to me?”
Originally, in front of the old man, she had already made concessions. This Xia Luobing still had this attitude, so it would be strange if she wasn’t angry!
“Mom, today is Dad’s birthday.” Huo Yunqi said in a deep voice, “Let’s not talk about these things today!”
Liu Yan frowned and looked at Huo Zhengxiong. Although she was unwilling, she still swallowed the words that had already reached her mouth.
“Bing Bing, you should have a child.” Huo Zhengxiong said seriously, “Father is not well, and I hope to see my grandson soon. Those shares will be my greeting gift to my grandson.”
