Chapter 51 - A Tree That Can Withstand Wind and Rain
Luo Tao narrowed his eyes and looked at the girl beneath him. Mo Yan stared at him with a serious face.
When Luo Tao finally picked up the phone, Qin Yuan felt as if he had been pardoned. However, Huo Zhen’s voice made him tense
up.
“Speak, what is it?”
“If it’s not important, be prepared to die.” Qin Yuan secretly added on to Huo Zhen’s words in his mind.
Qin Yuan said in a trembling voice, “Huo, Huo Zhen, what are you doing?”
“Why are you calling.”
Qin Yuan could feel Huo Zhen’s murderous intent over the phone. Why was Huo Zhen angry? He was scared to death!
Qin Yuan would have cried, but no tears came out. He said to Huo Zhen, “I don’t know which bastard spread the news that you are not dead. Everyone in the capital knows about
it.”
“That’s it?”
At that moment, only Luo Tao was left in the room. When he picked up the phone, Mo Yan ran away like a rabbit, saying that she was going to prepare dinner.
When Qin Yuan heard his tone, it was obvious that Luo Tao was upset with him, he quickly added, “Brother Huo, young master Huo, fourth master Huo, can’t you give me a reaction? The Huo family is in chaos, aren’t you worried? How about your plans? Won’t they be ruined?”
“It’s okay, I know what to do.”
“Oh, okay!” Qin Yuan was shocked at Luo Tao’s calmness. He thought that this time he would finally be able to witness Huo Zhen panicking, which no one had seen before. What a pity.
Luo Tao got up and sat down on a chair. He looked out the window at the night sky. The night breeze carried coolness that dispersed his exhaustion. Through the door, he could vaguely hear the tune that Mo Yan liked to hum while cooking. He had some emotional attachment to his stable and comfortable life with Mo Yan. He was not ready to leave her.
“Is there anything else?” Luo Tao asked with an indifferent tone.
Qin Yuan knew that he had dodged a bullet, so he continued, “Huo Zhen, how did you guess that someone would try to get Mo Yan into trouble?”
“I didn’t guess, it was just a precaution.”
“Precaution?” Qin Yuan’s voice was filled with confusion.
“The projects that Mo Yan was involved in before… there were also many other people who worked on them with her. But this time, she is working on a project alone. If someone wanted to make a move on her, this would be the time.”
Luo Tao’s voice was indifferent and there was no emotion in it. However, Qin Yuan sneered and said, “You really pay attention to Mo Yan. And is Chen Ya stupid? If she gets Mo Yan into trouble now, everyone would know that she is just taking revenge.”
At the mention of Chen Ya, Qin Yuan’s words were full of disdain.
“Once Mo Yan has established a foothold in the company, she will have no way to get rid of Mo Yan.”
Qin Yuan sat in front of the computer and raised his eyebrows, agreeing with Luo Tao. He was looking at the plan that Mo Yan had worked on earlier. Other than the mistakes from being deliberately misled by Chen Ya, the other ideas were still a little messy. However, it was not difficult to see that the person who wrote the plan was talented.
Mo Yan was very strong for being able to work on the project under Chen Ya’s malicious suppression. If she was given more room to develop the idea, the project would be really well done. Once she had connections and clients, it would be even harder for Chen Ya to make things difficult for her.
“Huo Zhen, are you prepared to protect Mo Yan?” Qin Yuan asked. Then he sighed. “A tree that has not experienced wind and rain will not grow up.”
Perhaps it was because he was touched by Qin Yuan’s words, Luo Tao was silent for a long time.
Just when Qin Yuan thought that Huo Zhen had agreed with him and was ready to brag, four words came out of from Huo Zhen’s mouth coldly.
“Mind your own business.”
Qin Yuan was used it.
Throwing his phone aside, Qin Yuan swiped his mouse, but he kept thinking about Huo Zhen’s attitude toward his little wife.
“Does Huo Zhen have feelings for her?”
In the empty room, Qin Yuan was talking to himself.
After a while, Qin Yuan slapped his thigh. ‘Could it be that earlier when he was calling Huo Zhen, he was with his wife…’
Qin Yuan did not know how to feel.
