Chapter 100

    

te! If the Huo family found out about this, it would be more than just a broken engagement!"Shen Wei covered his face that had been slapped, and cried out hysterically: "Do you care about me now What...Ho Mingzheng was never one to follow rules from a young age. He adamantly wanted to attend military school, and ten oxen couldn't have pulled him back. If it weren't for Huo Yuan's disability later on, he would probably be serving in the army now.

He would say something like that, throwing caution to the wind, so he must be really angry.

Old Master Huo was both angry and apprehensive. Huo Mingzheng's temper flared, and he felt a bit intimidated. Back then, if it hadn't been for his suspicion of him...

He won't rush him into getting married.

Now he regrets it to the core.

"Master, the Shen family has arrived," the butler reported as he entered.

Old Master Huo clenched his cane and slammed it heavily, saying in a deep voice: "Does the Shen family still have the face to come knocking Get out! Throw them out!"

"Hold on," Huo Mingzheng called to the butler, "Please let them in. The fault lies with them, not us. Let's see what they have to say."

Shen Rushan pulled Mrs. Shen all the way over. The rain wasn't too heavy, but because the two were in a hurry and couldn't hold up their umbrellas well, they got soaked halfway through.

"Master Huo..." Shen Rushan's face changed slightly upon seeing Huo Mingzheng seated in the Taishi chair, "Where is the old master"

At the Huo family, it was much easier to talk to the grandfather than to Huo Mingzheng.

Huo Mingzheng took the teacup handed to him by the servant, lifted the lid, brushed aside the tea leaves, and glanced at him, "Grandpa has high blood pressure and is physically weak, so he needs to go back to rest."

Shen Rushan was in the wrong, gritted his teeth secretly, took a deep breath and said, "Mingzheng, it's my fault for not teaching my daughter well. Shen Wei has already been broken leg by me. I know that this still can't satisfy you. You tell me, the Shen family will definitely compensate you."

He had to bow his head for his own career. He managed to get to his current position, which is due to his even greater ambitions.

I'm afraid of angering the Huo family. If we do, they will expose Shen Wei's scandals and ruin both the Shen family and his career!

Huo Mingzheng's eyes narrowed slightly.

Mrs. Shen couldn't help but choke back a sob, thinking of Wei who would be disabled in the future. Her heart was shattered.

Shen Rushan pinched her hard.

Ho Mingzheng ignored their little movements and said coldly, "I don't want any compensation from your Shen family."

Mrs. Shen was delighted.

Shen Rushan knew Huo Mingzheng wasn't a good person. He didn't want Shen's compensation, not because he didn't need it, but because he looked down on it.

But he didn't have what Huo Mingzheng wanted. The Huo family had mountains of gold and silver, lacking nothing except...

No, that project was agreed to be given to Shen Group.

He and Mr. Shen jointly hold shares in the company, but Mr. Shen is in the open while he prefers to operate behind the scenes, receiving company dividends. The comprehensive rehabilitation project is a sure win for the Shen family, bound to boost Nanshan City's GDP significantly.

There is no one who does not love money.

He was extremely unwilling to give up this piece of fat.

"Mèng Zhēng, I know you've been wronged by this.

With a snap, Huo Mingzheng tossed the teacup lid back and said to the butler, "See our guests out."

"Mingzheng, let's talk about this properly." Shen Rushan raised his hand to stop the steward.

"I have nothing to say to you." Huo Mingzheng put down his teacup and stood up, picking up the phone on the table.

Shen Rushan strode up to him and stopped him. "There's an overseas port project under Shen Group. Are you interested"

Huo Mingzheng's footsteps faltered, and Shen Ruishan suddenly felt that there was still room for maneuver. His heart just let out a sigh of relief.

"Mr. Shen, are you saying you want to buy me off" Huo Mingzheng's voice dropped.

Shen Rushan's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly explained, "I know that using this method to appease your anger is not the behavior of a gentleman."

Ho Mingzheng said indifferently, "Butler, what are you standing there for Mr. Shen's clothes are wet, let him go back and change his clothes."to talk about what happened to Fu Yan.Especially in front of Li Qin, it's even harder to speak."Over the past few years you've been gone, Azheng ended up with Fu Yan...""I know," Li Qin interrupted Qi...
