The news that the old man of the Xiao family was hospitalized due to shock spread throughout the upper class society in Hong Kong within an hour.
Chu Mochen was kissing Song Yunxuan in a good mood at that time, but the assistant's knock on the door sounded at such a critical moment.
Song Yunxuan pushed him away, then pulled up her shirt and turned her back.
Chu Mochen suppressed the displeasure in his heart, sighed, helplessly wrapped the quilt around her body, then got out of bed and opened the door.
At the door was his right-hand man for several years.
Seeing Chu Mochen's messy hair, he was a little embarrassed.
"What's up?"
The assistant whispered: "The old man of the Xiao family seems to be dead."
Chu Mochen's originally indifferent eyes suddenly trembled, and the expression on his face became solemn in an instant.
What else did the assistant want to say.
Chu Mochen looked back at the bedroom door.
At the door of the bedroom was Song Yunxuan, wearing a shirt and holding on to the door frame.
He looked away, turned around and told his assistant: "Wait outside, I'll be right back."
The assistant nodded.
Chu Mochen closed the door and went to the bedroom to change clothes.
Song Yunxuan was not very honest just now, and her clothes were wrinkled when she was cleaning her.
Song Yunxuan saw him changing clothes in the room, she opened her lips and asked him, "What happened?"
"Just stay here."
"Can I go with you?" Song Yunxuan walked a few steps closer and asked him with clean eyes.
Chu Mochen refused without thinking: "It's business, it's not appropriate for a woman to go with you."
"Dinner?"
Chu Mochen nodded, arranged his shirt, and wanted to wear a tie.
Song Yunxuan reached out and took out a red tie from the closet: "I'll tie it for you."
Chu Mochen glanced at the tie in her hand, then reached out and took another dark blue one from the closet: "No need."
After Chu Mochen tied his tie, put on his coat and left.
Song Yunxuan did not send him out, but leaned against the door of the bedroom and watched him close the door.
She still held the red tie she had just taken in her hand. Listening to the sound of the door closing, she lowered her eyes and fell on the red tie, thinking thoughtfully: "Who died?"
Chu Mochen walked out of the room and told his assistant: "Go find someone to guard the room. You must not let Yun Xuan step out."
"Mr. Chu, this matter has nothing to do with Miss Yunxuan."
Chu Mochen frowned: "Although it has little to do with her, but..."
But riding the wind and making waves is something she is very good at.
If Gu Changge were Song Yunxuan at this time, then the Xiao family's old man's serious illness might be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to defeat the enemy.
He only said a but and said nothing more after that.
The assistant was very thoughtful, and after following Chu Mochen for so many years, he naturally knew that it was best not to ask Chu Mochen if he didn't want to say anything.
"Don't worry, Mr. Chu. I will ask someone to keep an eye on Miss Song. However, the Song family has lost contact with Miss Yunxuan. Should we inform the Song family?"
Chu Mochen strode out: "No need to notify."
The Song family wished that Song Yunxuan would just disappear in Hong Kong City.
Since there is no news about Song Yunxuan for the time being, let her pretend to disappear for a while.
…
Loki was guarding his grandfather in the intensive care unit at Sheena Hospital in the port city.
Outside the CPU ward are the Xiao family's bodyguards and the top doctors in Hong Kong City.
It was Loki's second uncle and third uncle who came over later.
Uncle Loki had a bad temper. When he saw Loki standing guard outside the CPU ward, he came up and gave Loki a big slap in the face.
There was always an atmosphere of anxiety in the hospital, and even top-notch doctors were extremely cautious when it came to the operation and treatment plans of the richest man in Hong Kong.
Several doctors gathered together to discuss the treatment plan, and suddenly there was a slap from the other side.
The whispers in the entire hospital corridor fell silent for an instant, and everyone looked towards the place where the slap sounded.
Then he saw Loki being knocked to the ground.
After the burly man finished beating him, he would go over and grab him by the collar and slap him again.
A thin man behind him tried his best to stop him: "Second brother, second brother, please calm down, Loki doesn't want this either."
"It's all this bastard. If this bastard hadn't made Daddy angry, Daddy wouldn't be unconscious in the intensive care unit now!"
When Chu Mochen arrived, he saw the chaotic scene where the third son of the Xiao family stopped his second brother from beating his eldest nephew.
Several families who had good relations with the Xiao family rushed over after hearing the news that the old man of the Xiao family had fallen, including the Huo family.
Even the Lu family, who had always had a bad relationship with the Xiao family, came over just to save face.
But only three people were put into the corridor.
Lu Xia, the eldest daughter of the Lu family, Chu Mochen, the only son of the Chu family, and Huo Ting, the eldest son of the Huo family.
The rest of the people who came to visit were blocked outside.
The eldest daughter of the Lu family is cold-hearted and ordinary-looking, but although her appearance is the kind that would be hard to find in a crowd, she is surrounded by an elegant and demure temperament.
The young master of the Huo family and Lu Xia both came earlier.
When Chu Mochen arrived, the two of them had already chatted for a few words in the corridor.
The second and third young masters of the Xiao family were busy teaching their eldest nephew a lesson. Huo Ting came over to talk to him: "I heard that this boy made his grandfather angry to death."
Next to her, Lu Xia was wearing a nude-colored midi skirt. When she saw Chu Mochen, she nodded slightly to him. Although she was well-maintained, she could tell from her calm eyes that she had actually been through it for a long time. battlefield.
Chu Mochen also nodded to him.
At this time, Huo Ting didn't see any barrier with Chu Mochen. He just told him about this: "I didn't expect that the Xiao family even let you, a Yuncheng native, come in."
"I have business dealings with the Xiao family."
Huo Ting smiled lightly: "I think the Xiao family let us come in to visit the patient, probably to tell us that the old man of the Xiao family was the one who was so angry that he was beaten, and then..."
Chu Mochen followed Huo Ting's line of sight and happened to see Xiao Jiancheng's second and third sons, one yelling at Xiao Luo and the other protecting Xiao Luo.
"These two uncles are pretty good at acting. One is a villain and the other is a villain." Chu Mochen withdrew his gaze.
Huo Ting also nodded: "As long as we know that it was the boy who made the old man so angry, it will be justifiable for the family to overturn the will and drive the brat out of the house."
Next to him, Lu Xia had a small shawl on his shoulders and had a curvy figure. He looked coldly at Xiao Jiancheng's two sons and grandsons over there.
Chu Mochen had heard about Lu Xia earlier, but he didn't expect that the adopted daughter of the Lu family would be representing the Lu family now.
Huo Ting saw him looking at Lu Xia, as if he had something to say, but he didn't say anything because Lu Xia was present.
Lu Xia had no interest in the elders of the Lu family teaching the brat a lesson. Not to mention trying to start a fight with the brat, he had no intention of trying to break up the fight between the two parties.
The tall foreign assistant handed a phone to Lu Xia. Lu Xia picked it up with a slightly raised eyebrow, and then handed it to the secretary without even saying a word.
Then turned around and walked out.
Lu Xia entered the elevator and left without saying hello, followed only by the blond male assistant.
When Lu Xia left, Xiao Jiancheng's two sons were stunned for a moment, and then their eyes on Luo Ji became colder, even a little mocking.
Huo Ting said in a low voice: "I don't know what agreement the Lu family woman made with Mr. Xiao. She has been protecting the grandson of the Xiao family before."
"But judging from today's farce, the eldest lady of the Lu family does not want to interfere with the Xiao family's affairs."
Huo Ting nodded: "I think so too."
Chu Mochen looked at the unconscious old man in the ICU ward, and then at Rocky who was standing in the distance with his head lowered: "If the two sons of the Xiao family want to rebel and seize this nephew's inheritance rights, just do it, why bother to return it?" Let’s watch this show.”
"At any rate, he has to be famous. If the external publicity is that this young heir is ignorant and incompetent, and even made his grandfather angry to death, no one in Hong Kong City will fight against him."
"Which side do your Huo family support?" Chu Mochen asked Huo Ting.
Huo Ting smiled: "Don't you know? The three families in Hong Kong City are intertwined. Although our Huo family is on good terms with the Lu family on the surface, the people in the Lu family gang must be the enemies of my Huo family."
Chu Mochen nodded: "I understand, you want to help his two uncles."
Huo Ting shrugged: "There is nothing we can do about it. Besides, the Lu family just gave up on Xiao Luo at this time. Even if I wanted to support Xiao Luo, he would not be able to fight against his two uncles."
Chu Mochen didn't speak, but just focused his eyes on the bed in the ICU ward.
The three families in Gangcheng are well-known in Gangcheng and even Yuncheng, Xiao, Lu, and Huo.
But eighteen years ago it was not ranked like this.
Eighteen years ago, the three families in Hong Kong City were headed by the Lu family, followed by the Xiao family, and then the Huo family.
However, the heir of the Lu family was killed when he was twenty years old. The Lu family only had one son, and they all fell ill because of the sudden death of his son.
The head of the Lu family is not as persistent as the old man of the Xiao family. Even if his son dies, he must find another woman to have another child.
The head of the Lu family was a devoted man. After the death of his only son, he devoted himself to taking care of his sick wife. His wife died of a serious illness three years later.
The head of the Lu family was at the lowest point in his life at that time, but Xiao Xuan, the eldest son of the Xiao family, was at the peak of his powers, bent on suppressing the Lu family, and even going crazy to bring down the Lu family.
The Lu family has no backbone. Axia, a girl from the orphanage who accompanied the young master of the Lu family when she was a child, was adopted by the leader of the Lu family and given the surname Lu.
Lu Xia is sharp-handed and vicious in his actions, and he has the demeanor of a master.
When Xiao Xuan wanted to bring down the Lu family, Lu Xia risked his life against him. Xiao Xuan was almost killed, and Lu Xia also lost two fingers because of it.
Therefore, although the Lu family has kept a low profile for so many years, it is nothing more than a tiger dormant.
No matter how powerful the Xiao family is, they will always have to worry about the Lu family.
When the old man was in good health, he quietly reached an agreement with the Lu family without telling his two sons.
The reason was probably to ask the female leader of the Lu family to protect his young eldest grandson.
It's a pity that although this female leader is not a simple person, she always likes to do things that are more beneficial to herself.
Now the eldest grandson is so angry with the old man that the situation is one-sided. Seeing that there is no profit to be made, Lu Xia has already given up.
