Chapter 184 - Punishment
writer:HuilongShenghou      update:2022-08-03 19:29
  Everything is according to his plan. From Huo Chengyi's car accident and disappearance, Wang Yan's burn, and Huo Luan's accident. He had been holding himself back for a long time, biding his time until he hammers down the punishment for those who had hurt him, as well as Huo Meiying.

  Huo Chengyi has his prideful attitude that won't ever yield to everything until he has himself pushed back to a wall. Like what happened this morning, where Huo Dakuan finally announced the transfer of the CEO position to Huo Jinghua, Huo Chengyi decided to take a step back. It looked like a retreat, but it was actually an advance. He didn't force Huo Dakuan more, since he knows it would result to a worse situation for him if he did.

  Thus, Huo Jinghua had already expected that Huo Chengyi would take his stuff from the company to avoid humiliation in case he'd meet the company's employees after his, along with Huo Xuaner and Huo Zhansan, their suspension would be announced.

  Having lived in their youngest brother, Huo Jinghua's shadow all these years, he, the oldest son, is aware that the people are talking behind his back, mocking him along with his two brothers – Huo Xuaner and Huo Zhansan, always comparing them to Huo Jinghua who excels in everything, almost perfect had it not been for his dull temperament. Thus, he egged on Huo Xuaner and Huo Zhansan to hate Huo Jinghua, fanning the flames of their anger towards Huo Jinghua out of their jealousy.

  While Huo Chenyi was still inside the company, he had someone tinker with Huo Chengyi's car which is in the parking lot…… Huo Chengyi, to avoid the company's employees early on, went to the company after the office hours where there less, or almost none, employees left in the company to stay as they worked overtime. This made things more convenient to Huo Jinghua to plot against Huo Chengyi.

  The moment Huo Chengyi left the company on his car after he was done with his task, Huo Jinghua had his people follow Huo Chengyi to save Huo Chengyi before he could die in the man-made 'accident'.

  As for Wang Yan, Huo Chengyi's wife, he made a hacker intrude the smart system of Huo Chengyi's house and interfere with the kitchen. He had the hacker control the smart system and increase the fire while stopping the water to prevent Wang Yan from putting off the fire.

  And Huo Luan… Huo Jinghua lowered his head to hide his devious smile that would make one's hair raise if they'd see it, and also hiding the flash of murderous intent in his eyes.

  As soon as he had taken full control of all the people of Huo Dakuan, he had sent people to spy on his elder brothers. Thus, how can he not know whose child is Huo Luan? How can he not know, that as soon as Xiao Lianhua turns, she'd badmouth Huo Meiying to his daughter, including her dissatisfaction of her husband – Huo Xuaner? He doesn't care about Xiao Lianhua cursing whoever it is, including his second brother, but he wouldn't let her off cursing Huo Meiying who has nothing against her.

  Thus, Huo Luan was also secretly mouthing off Huo Meiying like what she learned, and got, from her mother. So, he punished her. She has to be grateful she doesn't have a drop of the blood of a Huo running in her veins, or her 'punishment' would be worse. As for her mother, Xiao Lianhua…


  Like Huo Chengyi and Wang Yan, he wouldn't kill them off too soon. It's too early for them to die, and death is making them off lightly.

  Huo Chengyi will be sent somewhere, though not in hell, but he'd live in that place worse than he's living in hell. Wang Yan is proud of her face the most, so she'll have her face be sliced off of her skin. Even surgery won't save her.

  As for Huo Luan and Xiao Lianhua? He'll have Huo Xuaner deal with them. For someone arrogant like Huo Xuaner, having someone betray him, most especially his wife, as well as fathering a child that isn't his, is the greatest insult he'd receive. He should 'thank' Huo Chengyi for teaching him arrogance. Now, Huo Xuaner wouldn't know how can his face be saved after the betrayal of his wife, and fathering someone who isn't his. Even hiding underneath the turtle's shell won't let him live in peace after the people would mock him after his life was made a joke by his own wife.

  What about Huo Zhansan and his wife, Li Fei? They will also receive their own punishment, though only lightly. They should be grateful it would be light, as well as Huo Xuaner – being mocked was already light compared to what happened to Huo Chengyi and his wife.

  Huo Jinghua had always believed that the ringleader is always the eldest. If Huo Chengyi didn't influence Huo Xuaner and Huo Zhansan to dislike him when they were young, would Huo Xuaner and Huo Zhansan like him? Although the answer is unknown, he still had set his punishment for the two is lighter than Huo Chengyi's. He also believes that the two, Huo Xuaner and Huo Zhansan, their arrogance was influenced by Huo Chengyi, too, as well as their dissatisfaction towards Huo Meiying – their elder sister, who deserves to be respected the most.

  It is obvious he was biased of his opinions against Huo Chengyi. But so what? He despises him. If not for Huo Chengyi instructing Huo Xuaner and Huo Zhansan to hit him, to place insects on his shoes, to lock him in the dark and enclosed basement, and to lead and then later leave him somewhere, would he end up this twisted? Would his soul turn as black as a raven? Would he plant hate in his heart as early as when he gained awareness?

  Although he was grateful for the pain and fears they gave him before, but he isn't a masochist. There is a limit to everything. Even though he had a dull temperament, but his patience also runs out. Huo Chengyi is the instigator of everything, thus he deserves to be punished.

  Though he doesn't know why Huo Chengyi hates him, he doesn't want to know and isn't interested to find the cause. He just thinks Huo Chengyi finds him an eyesore. The feeling is mutual, since he also finds him an eyesore, truly disgusting.

  As for that Xiao Lianhua… because she is an ambitious woman, she naturally wanted to increase her status in the family. So, she wanted to get closer to her sisters-in-law. However, since Huo Meiying was scorned in the family, and Wang Yan is temperamental, she chose to get close to Li Fei instead. But, she doesn't want Li Fei to be of higher in status than her, so she had Li Fei develop a bad relationship with Wang Yan, who has a bad temper and easily gets offended, as well as had Li Fei insult Huo Meiying who is a pushover.

  She's a calculating woman, indeed, since she dared to be ambitious. However, it was naturally out of her calculation when she was raped by her fellow male nurse in the hospital she was working before. Feelings that were hidden naturally cannot be calculated. She never knew someone was secretly in love with her, since she never put anyone in her eyes aside from the wealthy people.

  Thus, when that male nurse heard Xiao Lianhua hooked up Huo Xuaner, he snapped and forced himself on her. Feeling humiliated, and feared Huo Xuaner would know what happened to her, she forced herself to Huo Xuaner. How can a man resist a beauty, especially a white lotus beauty? Added to the fact Xiao Lianhua made Huo Xuaner drunk so he won't remember she wasn't a virgin anymore when they did it, they had sex. Even if Huo Xuaner was overjoyed Xiao Lianhua became pregnant, Xiao Lianhua only felt deeper fear. She knew, the child in her stomach isn't Huo Xuaner's, but that male nurse's.

  So, when the day came she gave birth to Huo Luan, she had someone faked Huo Luan's blood type. It is easier for her, since the hospital where she gave birth to was the one she chosen – her former workplace. Huo Xuaner didn't question her since one, he was anxious of his wife's labor, and two, he thought Xiao Lianhua felt reassured of the hospital since that's where she had worked before.

  Indeed, she really felt reassured, since she has her former colleagues help her. And, that male nurse who is Huo Luan's biological father, she didn't see him so she felt more reassured in giving birth. She thought he was frightened she'd telltale him on Huo Xuaner and have Huo Xuaner deal with him, so he fled.

  What she didn't know is that Huo Jinghua had the male nurse avoid Xiao Lianhua and made him bide his time, telling him he'd help him retake Xiao Lianhua, as well as their daughter, Huo Luan. Xiao Linhua didn't dare to look for that male nurse since he had humiliated her, so it became more convenient to Huo Jinghua to execute his plans.
