Chapter 1962: Chapter 442: Qin Jin Is Jealous
After three days, when Hua Nuan saw Huo Si again, she could clearly feel that the man had aged a lot.
He was clearly only 26 years old, but suddenly he seemed to have the weathered look of someone near 50.
Perhaps he had lived a privileged life and had never been in a prison cell before.
Originally, Huo Si really liked to laugh flamboyantly, had a rebellious nature, and was cynical. Now he was sitting quietly on a chair, staying in a corner, not speaking a word.
"Mr. Huo, Huo Si has confessed to his charges without objection. You need to accept our interview alone because you are involved in the incident. We know you are busy, so we’ll streamline the process to avoid causing you unnecessary trouble."
The officer spoke respectfully, in fluent English.
Huo Zun squinted his blue eyes, his gaze landed on the man in the corner, and he pursed his lips and said.
"Hmm, has the lawyer been arranged?"
"Huo Si does not intend to hire a lawyer."
"Hmm."
Huo Zun responded lightly, then said, "Please give me some time. I would like to talk to him alone."
"Okay, Mr. Huo."
"Hmm."
...
The leading officer beckoned, and the rest of the officers left. Huo Zun sat on a chair with Hua Nuan.
Although there were no guards around, they were still closely watched, with monitoring set up to observe Huo Si’s every move.
Huo Zun spoke calmly, "I heard you wanted to see me. I’m here. What do you want to say to me?"
Huo Si had been keeping his head down, not speaking. When he heard Huo Zun’s words, he slowly raised his head, looking straight at Huo Zun with a stubborn look.
"I want to congratulate you, Huo Zun. Congratulations, you won."
Upon hearing this, Huo Zun tugged at the corners of his lips, his blue eyes falling on Huo Si in front of him, and he asked in return, "Huo Si, who gave you the confidence to blindly believe that any so-called winning or losing between us would affect me? Hmm?"
Arrogant, obsessive, domineering.
Huo Zun surpassed Huo Si in these aspects.
It’s just that Huo Zun managed this balance exceptionally well.
Huo Zun squinted his blue eyes and looked at the man’s slightly changing expression, then slightly raised the corners of his lips.
"I thought you might have changed in these three days, but it seems not. I merely said some deliberate words, and it stirred your emotions. Huo Si, one day you’ll look at everything clearly and realize that I’ve never intended to compete with you. To be frank, you’re not worthy."
In Huo Zun’s social circle, the people he associated with were like Gu Mochen.
They were friends, and also rivals.
The industries that Gu Mochen and he were involved in were different, but competition was inevitable.
So, if there really was any sense of competition, it would undoubtedly be with Gu Mochen, engaging in healthy competition, not focusing on someone as insignificant as Huo Si.
The carefree young master, knowing nothing, blindly overconfident.
Hearing Huo Zun’s straightforward words, Huo Si’s face turned pale.
Huo Si: "..."
It could very well be the last time meeting.
Unexpectedly, he still lost.
Huo Si couldn’t help but laugh, realizing what it truly felt like to be a complete failure.
Now he had firsthand experience.
Huo Si slowly raised his head to look at the man in front of him after a long while, and said in a hoarse voice.
"If you never intended to compare, why did you appear in my life... take away everything that was originally mine? Do you know that if you hadn’t appeared, perhaps our family of three would have lived happily together, and I wouldn’t be so rebellious?"
Huo Si’s emotions were a bit agitated, excited, while Huo Zun squinted his blue eyes, hearing footsteps at the door, he quickly raised his hand to gesture at the officers not to come in.
These emotional fluctuations were still under his control.
The family scandal between brothers could be resolved independently, and Huo Zun did not want to trouble outsiders with it.
"Huo Si, you’re already a 26-year-old adult. Both you and I had no choice in our birth. As it stands, if you still simply think my appearance disturbed you, then I want to ask you, what have I taken from you?"
"You..."
Because of Huo Zun’s words, Huo Si had a thousand things to say but found himself at a loss for words, not knowing where to start, and his expression subtly changed.
"You..."
"The identity of the eldest son of the Huo Family was not something I deliberately sought. In fact, back then, I had cut off everything with the Huo Family, as you could see. Later, when I made the Huo Family bigger, grandmother was the one who actively approached me."
