Chapter 411

any. Their minds were filled with only two thoughts.It turns out to be Huo Mingzheng.It could only be the head of the Nancheng First Family, Huo Mingzheng.Shen Wei walked arm in arm with Huo Mingzheng...He spoke word by word, “I have the blood of the Huo family running through my veins. If I don’t acknowledge you as my grandfather, then I might as well drain my own blood dry. But if I were to defy you, it would be a grave act of treason. If you truly intend to harm Yan Tong, take my life too.”

Old Master Huo trembled, his eyes wide with shock.

The word "殉情" flashed through his mind, and he felt a dizziness. His steps stumbled, and he fell back onto the noble concubine's couch.

"You dare threaten me!"

Huo Mingzheng's firm hand grasped his arm, pulling him up. "That's why I said you should be thankful you didn't succeed, this statement wouldn't constitute a threat."

He released his grip, taking a step back. "Just know this, from now on, if you ever lay a hand on her again, don't blame me for turning against you."

After Huo Mingzheng went out, Old Master Huo slumped back into his chair, his hand trembling on his cane as anger surged through him. He slammed the cane onto the floor with a heavy thud.

Suddenly, he felt a wave of dizziness and his vision went dark. The butler quickly caught him, exclaiming, "Master!"

Just as the housekeeper was about to call for a family doctor, Old Master Huo raised his hand to stop him. "What doctor do we need on such a festive occasion I'm just annoyed by him!"

Old Master Huo paused for a few seconds before he felt a little better. His pale lips moved, "This unfilial descendant, what kind of hypnotic soup did Fu Yan give him"

The steward brought the teacup, and Old Master Huo took a sip before smashing the cup on the table. "Where is Li Qin"

The butler replied, "She also went to Zurich, but she didn't return with the second young master. Apparently, she was injured."

"Can't get in touch with her"

The housekeeper shook her head. "The phone has been switched off all day."

Ho Lao Ye sneered, "Just like her father, he's a nobody."

......

Zurich is still around 1:00 PM.

Unlike the good weather in Nanjing, it is still raining in Zurich.

The raindrops had soaked the windowsill. Li Qin reached into a drawer and pulled out her phone. She pressed the power button, and the screen kept flashing with messages and missed calls.

There were several missed calls from the Huo family. She knew they must have been made by Old Master Huo, wanting to reprimand her for failing to protect Huo Mingzheng.

And the rest were mostly Qi Ce's unanswered calls and text messages, all asking when she was coming back, saying they would personally pick her up from Paris and take her back to Nanzheng.

Her thumb hovered above the screen for a moment before finally sending him a reply.

You don't have to pick me up, enjoy the New Year's Eve dinner with your family. I'll be back soon.

Qi Ce is not that easy to fool, and if you keep lying to her one after another, your lies will eventually unravel.

After sending the message, she turned off her phone and threw it into a drawer.

She walked to the window, her mind wandering about what Huo Mingzheng was doing now

It should be dinner time in Nancheng now. Did he go back to Huo's Manor to eat the New Year's Eve dinner

Are you still with Fu Yan

Fu Yan, Fu Yan......

She growled, her hands braced against the windowsill, sending a vase crashing to the floor.

With a loud bang, medical personnel rushed in.

She looked back, only seeing medical personnel. There were no other faces, nor the imposing, tall man named Soren from yesterday.

It seems Huo Mingzheng is really not going to pay her any attention.

What did he mean yesterday morning when he said, as she wished, she would marry into the Huo family

But none of that matters now.

She must leave this place and return to her country to dispel Qi Ce's concerns.

She told the doctor in French, “I want to be discharged.”ed him aside and strode towards Fu Yan's ward.There came a muffled sound of sobbing from within, though faint, Ji Lin could hear it.He froze, withdrew his hand from the doorknob, and after a long sile...
