Chapter 390: Huo Hannian Disappeared

Translator: 549690339

In the study room.

Old Master Huo looked at Huo Hannian, who had a cold expression on his face and frowned.” Tell me, why did you decide to cancel the engagement with Shuang ‘er?”

Huo Hannian pursed his cold lips and said in a low and hoarse voice,” Shuang ‘er has someone she likes, and so do I.”

Old Master Huo’s face darkened.” You know, the heir of a big family doesn’t have the right to choose his own marriage.”

Huo Hannian’s deep eyes were so dark that not even a hint of light could seep into them. The corners of his lips curled up into a faint smile.” That was the rule in the past. It doesn’t exist when it comes to me.””

His tone was cold, but it was filled with madness and arrogance!

The veins on Old Master Huo’s forehead popped out. He was obviously angered by Huo Hannian’s arrogant tone.

“Hannian, grandfather doesn’t want you to be so willful.”

Huo Hannian’s tall and cold body leaned back in the chair, his firm and cold jaw slightly tensed.” Grandpa, I’m different from my father. If I watch the woman I like get married, I’ll destroy everything!”

Old Master Huo’s old hands on the table were slightly clenched into fists, and his brows were so tightly knitted that they could almost pinch a fly to death.” Who is that woman?”

“Grandfather doesn’t need to know who she is for the time being! But there’s something I have to say first. If you still want me to take care of everything in the Hunts, don’t touch my bottom line!”

His tone was neither a discussion nor a plea, but an unquestionable warning.

Old Master Huo was shocked.

He looked at his young and arrogant grandson with mixed feelings.

He was a rare business genius among the Hunts ‘grandchildren. He had started doing finance when he was studying abroad and had earned his first bucket of gold.

He did not need to rely on the Huo family to make a name for himself. It was only a matter of time.

After returning to the Huo family, he used iron-blooded methods to quell a bloody internal strife and swiftly dealt with the second and third uncles who were fighting over the property.

The Hunts were about to lose their position as the head of the four wealthy families, but after he came back, he took on a few big projects and turned things around.

The business skills of the grandsons of the second and third families were far inferior to his. Now, the Hunts relied on him to continue developing!

He had proposed to choose his own marriage, not when he had just returned to the Hunts, but when he had stabilized his position.

What did this mean?

It meant that he already had enough confidence to compete with him!

Old Master Huo was already old, and that internal conflict had consumed a lot of his energy.

He couldn’t spend too much energy to fight against his grandson who had already taken control of the Hunt Corporation!

Old Master Huo sighed deeply.” You’re capable now. I can’t control you anymore. If the other party’s girl’s background is clean and there are no stains, I won’t object! But now that your mother is back, you have to get her permission. Otherwise, the Yu Family won’t be so easy to deal with!”

Huo Hannian pursed his thin lips and stood up from his chair without saying anything.

When she reached the door, the old man’s voice came.” Bring her home when you have time. Let me take a look.””

Huo Hannian didn’t say yes or no. He opened the study door and strode out.

Perhaps it was because that woman had returned, but Huo Hannian always felt suffocated.

He unbuttoned the top three buttons of his shirt, rolled up his sleeves, and walked towards his room.

“Have you finished chatting with your grandfather?”

The woman in the wheelchair, holding Huo Jin’s portrait, had entered his room.

Huo Hannian walked in expressionlessly. His black eyes fell on Huo Jin’s portrait and he said coldly,” What are you doing?””

The woman looked at Huo Hannian’s undisguised coldness and coldness. Her eyes gradually turned red and she said with a sad expression,” We haven’t seen each other for so many years. Is this how you treat me?” Your father is dead. If it wasn’t for you, I would have followed him to meet the King of Hell…”

Huo Hannian’s face tensed up, and his dark eyes glared at the woman.” Then go to hell!””

The woman trembled violently.

Tears fell from her eyes.” Do you hate me that much?”

Huo Hannian clenched his fists tightly, his entire body exuding a sinister and cold aura. The way he looked at the woman was like a beast that had been angered, as if he would pounce on her and tear her apart at any moment.” You pushed me into the abyss. Do I still like you?””

The woman looked at his twisted and ferocious eyes and laughed softly.” If you want to blame someone, blame your father and that woman. They caused all of this…”

Before she could finish her sentence, she was strangled by a large hand.

Huo Hannian had already lost control. The only thing in his mind was the image of him being abused and tortured by her when he was young. He desperately needed to get rid of that pain and abyss. The hand that was strangling the woman’s neck became stronger and stronger.

Yu Xiang didn’t struggle, she didn’t even scream.

She hugged Huo Jin’s portrait, and her lips curled into a faint smile.

It was as if he had already seen through life and death.

After an unknown period of time, a panicked and dignified voice was heard.” Hannian, are you crazy?”

Old Master Huo pushed open the door and almost fainted when he saw the scene inside.

If Yu Xiang was strangled to death by Huo Hannian, Huo Hannian would be finished for the rest of his life! The Hunts would also be finished!

Both mother and son were not in their right minds. They had been provoked and completely disregarded their lives!

Huo Hannian was forcefully pulled away by Old Master Huo. His eyes were bloodshot and his entire body was emitting a cold and sinister aura!

Yu Xiang’s neck had a red mark, and her face was pale. She looked at Huo Hannian coldly and said hoarsely,” Old Master, did you see that?” He’s sicker than me. He’s a monster, a lunatic…”

Old Master Huo’s face darkened as he shouted,”Shut up!” Haven’t you provoked him enough? Do you want him dead so you can treat him as your own son?”

Old Master Huo took two deep breaths and called the butler in.” Send Madam back to her room.””

After the butler pushed Yu Xiang away, Old Master Huo looked at the cold and sinister Huo Hannian. His old eyes showed a hint of heartache.” Hannian, are you okay?””

Huo Hannian’s dark eyes were dyed with a terrifying haze and red. He glanced at the old man, and his tall body swayed. Suddenly, he walked past the old man and rushed out.

“Han Nian!”

By the time the old man chased after her, Huo Hannian had already reached downstairs.

After a while, the sound of a car engine driving away could be heard from the garage.

It was already late at night. Huo Hannian rode the Phantom and sped away like an arrow.

His temples felt like they were being pricked by needles, and a voice kept echoing in his mind.

“You’re a monster, a lunatic-”

His eyebrows were covered with a layer of malice, and the veins on the back of his hand that was holding the steering wheel were protruding.

However, the speed of the car could not let him vent the frustration in his heart.

The car was too fast. When they turned the corner, they almost bumped into a small car.

The owner of the car was scared out of his wits. He honked his horn and let out a long and ear-piercing whistle.

Then, she chased after Huo Hannian’s car.

Huo Hannian parked the car by the roadside.

The owner of the small car angrily went forward and smashed the car window. He cursed,” If you don’t know how to drive, then go home. Do you think the road is yours?”

The car window slowly rolled down. Huo Hannian glanced sideways at the man.

The man’s cursing stopped abruptly when he saw Huo Hannian’s dark and red eyes.

“You f * cking almost knocked my car away. You, you, you’re still in the right?”

Huo Hannian took out a check and handed it to the man expressionlessly.

When the man saw the amount on the check, his heart almost jumped out of his throat.

” It’s, it’s fine. Drive slowly. With such good conditions, it would be a pity if anything happened to you-”

Before the man could finish, the phantom had already sped away.

The next day.

When Wen Ruan woke up, she found an unread message.

It was from Huo Hannian. She thought that he had sent her the location of the ski resort, but when she opened it, her eyes were filled with disappointment.

I have something to do today, so I can’t go.

Wen Ruan looked at the time of the message. It was sent at five in the morning.

She frowned. He woke up so early? Or did he not sleep the entire night?

Wen Ruan replied to his message,”If you’re busy during the day, why don’t we have dinner together tonight?”

The message was sent out for a long time, but it was like a stone sinking into the ocean.

Wen Ruan was about to return to Yun Cheng soon. Before he left, he still wanted to see Huo Hannian.

After waiting for two days without receiving any messages from him, she took the initiative to give him a call.

In the end, the notification said that his phone had been turned off.

Wen Ruan pursed her lips, a little displeased.

What was wrong with him? It was fine if he didn’t show up, but why did he turn off his phone?

“What’s wrong? Why are you sighing?” Ye Qingyu pulled her suitcase out of the room. She and Wen Ruan would take the plane back to Yun Cheng later.

Wen Ruan waved her phone.” I can’t get through to Huo Hannian’s phone. I wonder where he went?””

“Are you out of the country on a business trip?”

Wen Ruan nodded thoughtfully.” It’s possible!”

The two of them packed their things and left the apartment.

She was about to get into the car when Zuo Yi alighted from a black car.” Miss Wen!”

Seeing Zuo Yi rushing towards her, Wen Ruan stopped in her tracks and a trace of confusion appeared in her eyes.” Assistant Zuo, what happened?””

Zuo Yi had always been calm and steady, and it was rare to see panic and anxiety on his face.

“Miss Wen, have you been in contact with the Young Master recently?”

Wen Ruan’s heart skipped a beat as a bad feeling rose in his heart.

“He sent me a message the day before yesterday. I’ve been calling him for the past two days, but his phone has been switched off!”Wen Ruan stared at Zuo Yi.” Don’t you know what he’s doing?”

Zuo Yi shook his head.” I haven’t been to the company since the day before yesterday. I went to the Huo residence this morning and Old Master didn’t know where he was either. I thought you might know, so I came to ask you.””

“I don’t know!” Wen Ruan started to get anxious.” He was still fine on the night of Grandma Li’s birthday party. He said he would take me to ski the next day, but I received a message from him at five in the morning saying that he had something on and couldn’t go.”

“Assistant Zuo, he wouldn’t cancel his date with me for no reason. If it’s not about the company, is there something wrong with his family?”

Zuo Yi sighed.” His mother is back.””
