Chapter 1949: Chapter 436: Willing to Spend Money on His Own Wife (Part 2)
So the two ended up together, and Huo Zun getting injured was inevitable.
"Because I too realized late, only aware that you are very important in my heart, without knowing... this is love."
As an observer, Gu Mochen had already noticed and advised many times.
But I simply didn’t listen.
Hua Nuan watched as the man’s gaze wandered far away, obviously lost in thought, quietly nestled in his arms, raising her hand to caress the gunshot wound on his arm, she whispered.
"It must have hurt a lot when you got injured at that time, right?"
"It didn’t hurt, really, thinking about leaving Little Nuannuan with me gave me a sense of fulfillment that far outweighs the pain of being injured."
Hua Nuan was a little moved by the man’s words.
Such a Huo Zun, seemingly content like a child.
Both of them didn’t understand love.
So at the first encounter, they were battered and bruised.
Having been hurt, after realizing their feelings, they actually cherished them more.
After all, both Huo Zun and I cherish family very much.
Hua Nuan sniffled, assuredly said, "I won’t let my man get hurt again in the future, okay?"
"Okay, I’ll listen to you."
Huo Zun smiled and kissed the woman’s brow, tightly hugging her in his arms, both quietly leaning against each other, until Hua Nuan fell deeply asleep, only then did Huo Zun carefully carry her into the bedroom, placing her on the large bed.
"Mmm..."
Hua Nuan, in her sleep, was in a very sweet slumber, completely unaware of the man’s deep blue eyes fixed on her, reluctant to leave even for a moment.
Even when she was sleeping, he watched greedily, unwilling to leave.
In the past six years, on countless nights, the man had done just that.
It’s just that I never knew.
...
Three days later:
Over the past three days, Hua Nuan conducted a simple analysis, and it was undoubtedly Huo Si’s golden era, abbreviated as the peak.
That is to say, the man suddenly rose from an obscure second young master of the Huo Family to a deity-like status, unbelievable.
He launched a new anticancer drug, standing at the pinnacle of technological advancement.
Not only that, but the man also attempted a lightning-fast takeover of Huo Zun’s Huo Family, causing Huo Family’s stock to plummet.
Almost from the outsiders’ perspective, bankruptcy seemed imminent at any moment.
Only the insiders knew, this was the Huo Family’s measure of being reborn from the ashes.
Huo Si appeared on news, in interviews...
For a moment, the man stood at the pinnacle of public opinion.
Even when Isabella accompanied Huo Si to events, she couldn’t praise her grandson enough.
Obviously supporting all of Huo Si’s actions, she no longer mentioned Huo Zun.
When the media inquired about Huo Zun’s current situation, she chose not to respond.
People are fickle.
Hua Nuan and Huo Zun had long been immune to the old lady’s behavior.
Even though Hua Nuan was very angry deep down, after all... this was their biological grandmother, how could a biological grandmother do this to her own grandson.
This clearly was loving the grandson, yet loving the Huo Family’s business even more.
In these three days, Hua Nuan received numerous provocative calls from Huo Si, which she directly hung up on and ignored.
She waited out these three days, watching Huo Si, if he fell from his high perch, then most likely he’d crash and burn.
He who laughs last, laughs best.
...
Press Conference.
Because the new anticancer drug under Huo Si’s name had already been on the market for some time, Huo Si chose, as per tradition, to hold a press conference in the conference hall of Yuncheng First Hospital, and also had patients using the drug expound on its efficacy.
Initially, Huo Si worried about receiving complaints from patients after the drug had been used for some time, as it was a semi-finished product.
Eager to succeed he had rushed it out.
Unexpectedly, the feedback was overwhelmingly positive.
Not a hint of negative news.
So Huo Si became even more complacent...
He even received job applications from Wang Ming and others, mistakenly thinking Wang Ming had successfully stirred everyone to jump ship together.
So Huo Si was just waiting to see the foundation under Huo Zun crumble, imagining seeing the man kneeling to beg him.
...
At the press conference.
Since Huo Si was the sole protagonist today, he showed up early, beaming with Isabella alongside him.
For this grandson, Isabella was also hesitant.
Never did she imagine, this time, Huo Si could truly "defeat" Huo Zun.
Thus, for the future development of the Huo Family, Isabella, initially a supporter of Huo Zun, now switched her support to Huo Si.
