144. Grandfather and grandson meet each other and have deep affection.
After Madam Huo entered the conference room, Ci Ai's eyes were eager to search for Li Xiaoran in the crowd. When she saw the handsome Li Xiaoran sitting on the president's chair, Madam Huo was slightly startled.
Although the old man praised his precious grandson to the heavens and the earth, the old lady saw Li Xiaoran's outstanding demeanor with her own eyes and realized that the old man's compliments were really limited.
Li Xiaoran inherited her daughter's extraordinary beauty and cold and ascetic temperament. It is said that Li Xiaoran is also a god of learning who cannot be seen in a century. Even Xinping's genes of academic master have been inherited.
At this moment, the old lady was a little worried, fearing that Li Xiaoran had also inherited her daughter's extraordinary low emotional intelligence.
In fact, her worries are really justified.
Mr. Huo helped his wife sit in the chairman's seat, while he sat humbly on the temporary swivel chair next to him.
The old lady came back to the world and immediately threw out her iron fist: "I heard that you are very complaining about Huo's appointment of Li Xiaoran as president. That's why I'm here today."
The shareholders immediately showed relief. They believed that Mrs. Huo would not be as confused as the chairman, and that Mrs. Huo would definitely be able to discern the inappropriateness of Li Xiaoran's appointment as Huo.
Li Xiaoran's brows narrowed slightly as he was thinking about how to convince the old lady to accept him...
Who knew Mrs. Huo had spoken out.
"Aren't you worried that Li Xiaoran is a spy sent by Li Kang to work undercover in the Huo family? Today I will make it clear. Li Xiaoran is the child adopted by my family Ru Ping when she was in a foreign country. He and Huo Zhou are brothers. From now on, you guys
Treat Xiaoran as you treat Huo Zhou."
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other in shock.
Mrs. Huo values an adopted son who is not related by blood so much, and the strangeness in this is worthy of scrutiny. After all, rich families are full of bad blood.
Everyone understood in their hearts that Li Xiaoran was probably a bloodline of the Huo family. However, due to some reasons, his identity could not be revealed for the time being.
Mrs. Huo is worthy of being the iron lady of the shopping mall. In just a few words, everyone understands that Li Xiaoran is a bloodline of the Huo family. At the same time, she cannot let them go out and gossip. After all, the Huo family has always pursued those who slandered their reputation to the end.
Shareholders' emotions were calmed down.
Li Xiaoran announced his next work plan. His voice was magnetic, comparable to that of a popular anchor. "If Li Kang Group wants to encircle and suppress our Huo's pharmaceutical group, it can only encroach on the market, reduce the supply of medicinal materials to us, and crowd out vaccines."
Three aspects were taken. And I also gave countermeasures to Li Kang’s encirclement and suppression.”
Then Li Xiaoran winked at his secretary, who came in with a stack of documents and issued each document to everyone.
Shareholders read Li Xiaoran's counter-manufacturing measures and felt chills running down their spines.
They are all experienced professionals in the shopping mall, but Li Xiaoran's level of evil has simply refreshed their outlook on life.
Some people even took out tissues and hurriedly wiped their sweat, secretly glad that the Huo family had dug up Li Xiaoran. Otherwise, with Li Xiaoran's intelligence, I am afraid that it would not be the Li family that would be devoured to the bone, but the Huo family. p>
After the meeting.
The storm rises again.
I don’t know who leaked the contents of the meeting to Huo Ruping. Huo Ruping was very angry when she found out that her mother had found a godson for her behind her back.
Huo Ruping came to the company angrily, went straight to the chairman and the old lady, and asked her mother: "Mom, are you old and confused? How could you make something out of nothing and claim your son for me? You will harm your daughter's reputation by doing this.
.Is there any mother like you?"
Huo Ruping is actually a sensible person, but Mrs. Huo really has no time to discuss this matter with her daughter in the future. Huo Ruping doesn't know what kind of medicine her mother sells in the gourd. She values her own reputation most, so it is normal for Huo Ruping to be angry.<
/p>
The old lady looked at her daughter with a guilty look on her face and hesitated: "Ru Ping, I'm sorry. This happened too suddenly, so my mother would take it upon herself to make her own decision..."
Since Huo Xinping ran away from home, the old lady has changed from a strict tiger mother to a mother who is submissive to her children and even has no principles.
Mr. Huo quickly smoothed things over for his wife: "Ru Ping, don't be angry with your mother first. You have to listen to your mother's explanation on this matter."
Huo Ruping muttered unhappily: "Dad - I have a son of my own. If you forcefully give me a son, what will others think?"
Mr. Huo explained: "Ru Ping, this child is not an outsider. He is the child left behind by your sister Xinping."
Huo Ruping was stunned.
After a while, he complained to the old man with tears in his eyes: "Since it is Xinping's child, it is the blood of our Huo family. Why do you call it an adopted son? This is unfair to the child."
The old man sighed sadly: "The child doesn't want to know us very much yet. I don't dare to push her too hard. You know, your sister was forced by us so hard that she ran away from home and embarked on a road of no return.
"Mr. Huo's weathered face was shrouded in deep despair.
When Huo Ruping saw her father's white hair, she suddenly remembered that after her sister ran away from home, her father and mother ran all over the streets. Her father turned gray overnight, and her mother was so depressed that she committed suicide.
Huo Ruping's eyes became wet and she choked with sobs: "Then say he is my biological son. I want this son."
Mrs. Huo breathed a sigh of relief.
Ru Ping didn't blame her, she felt relieved.
Huo Ruping was full of curiosity about the nephew she had never met. She pestered her father and mother to find out about her nephew.
"I think back then, my sister was outstanding in everything. She looked good, studied well, and had many friends. She was as bright as a pearl. I think her son must be good too."
"Huh." Mr. Huo snorted mischievously, obviously not satisfied with his daughter's wording.
"He is better than his master."
Huo Ruping was shocked: "My younger sister is a peerless child in the world. I really don't know what kind of devil that child is?"
Mrs. Huo said: "In my opinion, that child's advantages indeed surpass those of your sister. But his shortcomings seem to be too much."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the whole family darkened.
Huo Xinping's shortcomings are that she is stubborn, rebellious, has low emotional intelligence, and does not pursue fame and fortune. Her shortcomings are not suitable for the survival rules of a wealthy family.
After a long time, Ru Ping said solemnly: "I will protect him."
Only then did I remember that I hadn’t asked my nephew’s name yet: “By the way, what’s his name?”
"Li Xiaoran."
Huo Ruping's eyes widened in shock.
This name is like thunder to her ears.
Back then, Huo Zhou fell downstairs due to sleepwalking in school and almost died on the spot. It was Li Xiaoran who had just transferred to medical school and saved Huo Zhou.
Huo Ruping has always wanted to thank Li Xiaoran in person. However, Li Xiaoran has been staying abroad. Huo Ruping went abroad several times to thank him, but she could not see him.
Now he is back.
Huo Ruping smiled knowingly: "It turns out he is his own child. No wonder he and Zhouzhou are brothers and sisters."
