Ungrateful

On this day, Huo Xiaoran arrived at the company as usual, but he sat in the office sadly. Li Zecheng pushed the door open and walked in. He walked straight to him and said to Huo Xiaoran, “Uncle, Grandpa has already changed his will and transferred the shares of the Soaring Cloud Group to me.” Then, he looked at Huo Xiaoran tentatively.

Huo Xiaoran should be angry. After all, the Soaring Cloud Group was established by his mother. At that time, Xiaoran was young, so Huo Xinping handed the business to the old man. However, the Li family had taken the Soaring Cloud Group for themselves.

Huo Xiaoran looked at Li Zecheng coldly. “Li Zecheng, in order for me to save you, your family can really win an Oscar for acting in front of An’an and me.”

Li Zecheng’s handsome face stiffened. “Uncle, how can you say that? Many things are fated. Who asked you to be a hero four years ago? After you left, you left behind a weak woman. Naturally, I have to do my best to help her. But Qiao An doesn’t care about the company at all. I managed the company so well. I have to take some advantage, right? I admit that I did use the Angel Group’s business to support the Li Kang Group, but didn’t you personally give this to me?”

Huo Xiaoran said, “I did allow you to support the Li Kang Corporation on a small scale, but I didn’t allow you to touch my research and development department.”

A hint of uneasiness flashed across Li Zecheng’s face. He did not expect Huo Xiaoran to discover the core of the problem so quickly. He was indeed a top student. He could always accurately pinpoint the problem.

Huo Xiaoran said, “Li Zecheng, the Li Kang Group is already on par with the Angel Group, and the Soaring Cloud Group has been snatched away by you. Now, you don’t seem to have a reason to stay in the Angel Group and work for me. You can resign.”

Li Zecheng smiled gently. He had long expected this outcome. However, he thought that he should be the one taking the initiative to resign. He did not expect to be chased out by Huo Xiaoran so quickly.

“Okay, I’ll file my resignation later.”

“No need,” Huo Xiaoran said coldly.

Huo Xiaran glared at Li Zecheng and said faintly, “I’ll fire you right away.”

Li Zecheng’s face alternated between green and white. “Huo Xiaoran, aren’t you too heartless?” Li Zecheng was now a famous figure. If the industry found out that he had been fired by the Angel Group, many people would definitely speculate that he had ulterior motives for entering the Angel Group.

Only then did Huo Xiaoran’s tense face shatter, but it was filled with hatred. “Am I heartless? What you did upset my wife and caused her to be hospitalized. Just based on this, I won’t let you off.”

Li Zecheng had never seen such a terrifying Huo Xiaoran. His expression was like a demon as he glared at him.

Li Zecheng swallowed. “Uncle, let me remind you. I’m no longer the Li Zecheng you manipulated four years ago. If you want to fight me, you have to consider your ability first.”

How confident.

Huo Xiaoran sneered. “Li Zecheng, where did your confidence come from? I, Huo Xiaoran, never fight a battle I’m not confident in. Let me tell you, I’m willing to give you the Souring Cloud Group now because I want to spend thousands of dollars to exchange for my An’an’s healthy body. Do you think the Soaring Cloud Group can be taken over so easily?”

Li Zecheng chuckled. “Forget it, Huo Xiaoran, I won’t argue with you. Anyway, you’re already an arrow at the end of its flight. Even if you fire me, the popularity I’ve accumulated over the past four years will solidify my foundation. People gravitate toward the powerful and only know how to choose partners that are beneficial to them. And the end of the Angel Group has arrived. I believe no one will choose you.”

“Get lost,” Huo Xiaoran scolded angrily.

Li Zecheng turned around and left with a smug smile.

Just as Li Zecheng reached the door, Huo Zhou waved a fist at him.

“You ingrate. If I don’t beat you to death today, my surname won’t be Huo.”

Li Zecheng fell to the ground and leaned against the wall. When he saw the furious Huo Zhou, he suddenly smiled disdainfully.

“You’re really good brothers.”

Huo Zhou said angrily, “Li Zecheng, you f*cking swore to me that you would do your best for the Angel Group. But what are you doing now?”

Li Zecheng said shamelessly, “I’m not in the wrong. If Huo Xiaoran didn’t come back, I would have always taken care of the Angel Group’s business. But since he’s back, why should I help another with his business?”

Huo Zhou was exasperated. “Why should I believe you? You’re simply a drama queen.”

Li Zecheng stood up shakily. Huo Zhou waved his fist again. “I’ll beat you to death.”

Huo Xiaoran suddenly shouted, “Zhou Zhou, don’t attack.”

Huo Zhou was indignant. “I’ll teach him a lesson for you.”

Huo Xiaoran ran out and dissuaded Zhou Zhou. “Zhou Zhou, let him go. Just treat it as gaining merit for my An’an.”

Huo Zhou’s fist finally stopped. Li Zecheng staggered away.

Huo Zhou entered the office with Huo Xiaoran with a dark expression. The two brothers sat opposite each other. Huo Zhou asked, “Xiaoran, are we going to let that bastard Li Zecheng off just like that?”

Xiao Ran said faintly, “I heard that disasters and blessings are dependent on each other. Do you think my An’an will be lucky after suffering such a huge loss from Li Zecheng?”

Huo Zhou was stunned.

Xiaoran’s superstition made him speechless.

“I hope so.”

Huo Xiaoran hugged his head in pain and muttered, “Zhou Zhou, I really hope all the bad luck will happen to me. I hope that the heavens will let An’an off.”

Huo Zhou was silent.

The heavens were jealous of her.

Qiao An’s illness was the saddest thing for the Huo family.

The two brothers looked at each other in silence.

Huo Zhou was not good with words and he did not know how to comfort Xiaoran. He was just very anxious and kept nagging.

“Xiaoran, don’t worry about the company. You need funds, and the Huo family will fully support you.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “How can I be in the mood to work now? Zhou Zhou, my mind is filled with An’an. I want to accompany her, but I’m afraid that my negative emotions will affect her. When I’m not by her side, I think about her all the time.”

Zhou Zhou said, “Xiaoran, you and An’an are so in love. If anything happens to her, you’ll regret not accompanying her for the rest of your life. Go and accompany her well. Don’t worry about the company for now. I’ll help you take care of it for the next few days. Don’t worry, I won’t do anything bad like what Li Zecheng did. I just hate myself for not protecting your hard work for you.”

Xiaoran said, “You’re not good at managing pharmaceutical companies. Therefore, it’s normal that you didn’t notice what Li Zecheng did. Zhou Zhou, don’t blame yourself.”

Huo Zhou said, “Since you already know the company’s drawbacks, why don’t you tell me what I should do? I’ll help you take care of it recently.”

Huo Xiaoran said, “Go and invite the core members of the R&D department from four years ago.”

Huo Zhou said, “Okay.”

Huo Xiaoran stood up. “I have to go back and accompany An’an.”
