Chapter 415
He hung up the phone.
Wen Shuxu was stunned and for several seconds, she listened to the busy tone on this phone and forgot to put it down.
Yang Yao’s son?
He was actually her son? How is this possible?!!!

Empire State Building.
After the triennial summit was held as scheduled, the organisers went to great lengths to make this summit even more successful with the banquet in the evening.
Apart from making the banquet site very luxurious, they had invited many popular female celebrities in the entertainment industry to come over in order to cheer them up, including some famous ladies and daughters.
“Mr Huo, which one do you like? Take your pick?”
Seeing these women appear, some of the business tycoons who were closer to Huo Sijiu in the gregarious banquet started flirting and asked him to pick a woman over.
Huo Siji then smiled and sat back in the sofa with his champagne.
“Not interested, go ahead and pick.” He returned indifferently, and then, looked down at the watch on his wrist.
Those friends could only let him be when they saw him like this.
Soon, the women were all picked out.
Except for two young women who were extremely discerning and, of course, very distinguished in their original status, they had yet to find a suitable match.
“Gentlemen, what’s wrong? Are these two beauties that no one dares to pick? They are one of today’s film queens and the other is the famous Bernie family’s daughter, and they don’t dare to make a move?”
The organisers also saw the scene, and immediately teased there.
But in reality, these two women, these people really didn’t quite dare to make a move.
If you pick her, she will just go with you, but if she doesn’t dump you, then with the amount of talk she has, she can be spewed all over the internet in minutes.
If she doesn’t dump you, she’ll be on the internet in no time.
And this Bernie’s daughter, that’s even more impressive, her status, she is said to be a member of the royal family here, you dare to move?
Everyone looked at these two women, both wanting to have it and not having the guts to do so.
On the contrary, after these two women saw this group of goons, their eyes swept around and coincidentally looked at the man who was sitting over the sofa in this banquet hall.
It was a man who was immersed in his own world.
In the bright daylight, he was sitting there with his long legs folded, his nose was straight, his features were handsome, he didn’t even seem to hear the commotion of the scene, but one hand was lazily propped up on his side, and one hand was casually flipping his mobile phone, so careless, as if he didn’t put his heart into this party at all.
“Who is he?”
The blonde Bernie’s daughter asked first, her voice as melodious as a lark.
The organiser heard this and hurriedly took a step forward to introduce “He is Mr Huo, Asia’s youngest business overlord, Miss Bernie, do you fancy him?”
Note that the organiser used the word “fancy”.
It was clear that this Bernie’s daughter was in a position of great prominence.
Bernie’s daughter nodded and went straight over to ……
“Hello, my name is Bernie Mireille, may I ask you to dance?” She took the initiative to extend her hand and, still, invited the man with the highest etiquette of their family.
There was an instant flurry of envy.
For they all knew that to have the favour of this golden girl would undoubtedly be another feather in their cap when it came to business.
However, to their dismay, Huo Siji, who was looking at his mobile phone, actually took almost a minute before he realised that there was a woman standing in front of him.
With that, he raised his head in a very unpleasant manner.
“No, you go invite someone else.”
This guy, for the sake of this party, did give this woman a little face and said a few more words.
The blonde girl’s face instantly changed and she stared at him with a look of utter disbelief, “You’re asking me to invite someone else? Do you know who I am?”
“Does it matter to me?”
Huo Sijiu finally lost his patience and his words became a little hard to hear.
The best friend over there saw that something was going to go bad and hurried over to explain to him, “Mr. Huo, this is the Bernie family’s thousandaire, their family is very prominent here.”
“And then what?”
“And then …… then you can take your chances ……,” the buddy actually gagged there a bit for a moment.
Was this person stupid or not? Doesn’t he know what a great opportunity this is?
Although they were doing a big business now, but businessmen, who didn’t have ambition, to be able to expand the board to the world, that was the goal of every person in business ah.
Good friends are about to close themselves off.
The good thing was, Huo Sijiu finally understood at this time.
So all anyone could see was him nodding there before revealing an approving gaze, “Well, it’s really good, so I’ll give you this opportunity.”
“Huh?” Once again there was an uproar!
Give it to him?
Is this Huo crazy?
The Bernie’s daughter, who was still standing there, was even more furious as her pretty face welled up after hearing these words.
Did this Oriental man know any better?
Just when a smell of gunpowder had permeated the banquet hall, suddenly, a figure darted in from the main entrance and when he saw Huo Sijiu, he immediately walked over.
“President, Miss Wen has gone out.”
“Where to?”
“To Qiao Shiqian’s car.”
“Ka-ching–”
With that one sentence, the man who had just looked carefree, after a crunching sound, the wine gla*s that was filled with champagne in his hand was broken off by him alive.
Chapter 416
There was a dead silence in the crowd.
Bernie Chikin, on the other hand, didn’t even dare to show any semblance of emotion after shivering for a moment.
“So, that’s why she won’t come to the party?” He didn’t even look at his palm, which had been stabbed by a shard of broken gla*s, and his eyes, instantly covered in a layer of scarlet, were appalling.
Lengxu didn’t dare to speak.
Because, that’s what he thought too.
“Mr. Huo? Are you …… okay? Your hand ……?”
“Sorry, a little personal business, you guys take your time.”
Huo Sijiu threw down these few words, and soon, he stood up from the sofa and then disappeared.
The crowd’s jaws dropped.
However, they also didn’t dare to stop them at all, because just a moment ago, they had clearly seen that very frightening killing aura from this man, as if he wanted to eat people alive.
Boy, who the hell had P*ssed him off?
The Bernie millennials didn’t dare to think about this man anymore and hurriedly looked for another one on the scene.

Wen Shuxu came to a cafe with Qiao Shiqian.
She thought about it, Huo Sijiu is now at the banquet, at least have to go two hours, then she rushed back within this time, he should not find out.
Wen Shuxu looked at the person in front of her expressionlessly: “Say, what proof do you have that you are Aunt Yang’s son?”
Yang Yao, in fact, is a good sister of Wen Shuxu’s mother Du Huajin.
The first thing you need to do is to get a good idea of what you are getting into.
Du Huajin and Liu Bei, needless to say, one is Wen Xuxu’s mother, one is her aunt, these two respectively come from a family of medicine, and a bookish family, both are the city’s talented and beautiful celebrities.
As for Huo Ying’e, she was not a good person.
However, because of the Huo family’s powerful lineage, she was definitely one of the most famous women in the city.
Yang Yao’s family was also very wealthy. After the reform and opening up, it was their family that made the first bucket of gold in real estate.
When Yang Yao grew up, because of her good looks and her family’s good fortune, many people came to her door to propose marriage, and her parents were making arrangements for her marriage. However, at that time, Yang Yao somehow started to oppose strongly, and even after a big fuss, she extremely absurdly returned home with a big belly.
As soon as word got out, the Yang family exploded.
The entire city of A, too, was in an uproar.
It was at that time that Wen Shuxu’s mother met Yang Yao, who, at that time, had been kicked out of the Yang family.
Yang Yao told Du Hua Jin that she did not regret conceiving this child, however, she refused to tell Du Hua Jin who the father of the child was, Du Hua Jin had no choice but to give her a sum of money in the end, and then Yang Yao disappeared.
When he heard from her again, it was a man who appeared before Du Hua Jin with an eight-year-old boy. The man told Du Hua Jin that this was Yang Yao’s child.
However, she had died and the child was unattended.
Du Huajin was shocked!
For it seemed to her that Yang Yao at that time had told her so firmly and confidently that she did not regret conceiving this child, then she thought that she had met a man who loved her.
But why did things turn out that way?
Du Hua Jin never knew this secret until her death, let alone, who the father of this child was.
“I knew that my mother was sponsoring an orphan, and I also knew that this orphan was the child of one of her friends, but she never told me that he was by my side, so if it was really you, why didn’t she say so?”
Wen Shuxu stared at the man with a hint of anger and questioned him repeatedly.
That’s right, Qiao Shiqian had admitted it himself, back then she had gone to the primary school where he had also attended.
Qiao Shiqian looked at her quietly.
For a long time, he finally took out an envelope from his body: “Because, it was my mother who didn’t let her talk about it, after I was sent back to A city, your mother specially titled an orphanage for me in order to do this, here is all the information, you can take a look.”
Wen Shuxu: “……”
Gazing at the envelope, her fingers shook slightly, and finally, slowly reaching out, she took it over.
Sure enough, after getting the envelope, the few pages of yellowish paper pulled out from inside, the handwriting on it, was her mother’s handwriting, and even, she saw a photo.
A picture of her mother crouching and hugging a little boy!
It turned out that it was actually true.
Wen Xuxu finally trembled violently with her hands, and her eyes, too, were rapidly welling up with a layer of water ……
“Then why didn’t your …… mother let anyone tell you who you were? What is she afraid of?”
“She was afraid that I would die!”
“What?”
Wen Shuxu immediately lifted her head, her eyes that still had tears in them, and stared at him with great shock, “What do you mean? Is it …… the Yang family ……”
“No, it’s my father, have you ever seen a person who doesn’t want a child? A man who would drive even his own son to extinction in order to erase the sins he had done!”
He suddenly laughed softly, while his eyes behind the lenses looked like a stern ghost that had come out of a grave.
Wen Shuxu’s scalp tingled.
Raw, she was actually appalled by this look of his and winced!
