When the eldest sister of the Huo family first learned that Huo Cheng was looking for someone, she considered finding that person before him and then using the person to threaten Huo Cheng.
Huo Cheng had always had a smooth journey in life, which the eldest sister of the Huo family had long resented. She had long been waiting for an opportunity to teach him a lesson.
After Huo Cheng left the family to start his own business, the eldest sister of the Huo family still wasn't satisfied. Precisely because Huo Cheng was no longer at home, as the most beloved son of his father, Mr. Huo missed him even more.
From time to time, Mr. Huo would mention Huo Cheng at the dinner table and take the opportunity to lecture his other children, always singing praises of Huo Cheng and saying how excellent he was.
Even the youngest sister, Huo Xin, wholeheartedly sided with Huo Cheng and helped sing his praises. How could the eldest sister of the Huo family not be jealous?
In the Huo family, there was no preference for sons over daughters. Both genders were treated equally. If a daughter was outstanding, she could also become the head of the family.
As the eldest daughter, the eldest sister of the Huo family had always been highly self - regarded. But unfortunately, Mr. Huo valued Huo Cheng, which made the eldest sister extremely angry.
The eldest sister of the Huo family wanted Huo Cheng to never return to the Huo family. She hoped he would develop outside for the rest of his life so that he would never be able to compete with her for the position of the head of the family.
However, since even Huo Cheng couldn't find the person, the eldest sister of the Huo family naturally failed to do so either. So, she changed her target.
She sent people to carefully inquire about the characteristics of the person Huo Cheng was looking for. After getting a clear understanding of these conditions, she started looking for someone according to that model.
Finally, she found a girl who happened to be from the village Huo Cheng had visited years ago. The eldest sister of the Huo family was overjoyed. She brought the girl back and trained her for a long time. After explaining everything clearly, she planted the girl in Huo Cheng's company.
The girl wasn't really innocent. She just pretended to be pure and shy in front of Huo Cheng, probably thinking that was the type of girl Huo Cheng would like.
The girl slowly approached Huo Cheng and tried to gain his trust. After catching his attention, she deliberately created opportunities for chance encounters.
The same was true when she worked overtime in the company. In fact, it wasn't that there was too much work to finish. She just deliberately dragged it out until Huo Cheng was about to leave work.
When the time was right, she sent someone to tell Huo Cheng that the girl he saw every day in the company was the one he had been looking for.
After that, she continued to create more chance encounters. The difference was that Huo Cheng also started to create such opportunities. With such cooperation, the two of them had more chances to be together.
At that time, the eldest sister of the Huo family thought of playing the long - game. She hoped to bring down Huo Cheng's company through this girl, so that at least her father would be disappointed in Huo Cheng.
However, what the eldest sister of the Huo family didn't expect was that Mr. and Mrs. Huo discovered this girl first.
Mr. and Mrs. Huo weren't as young and naive as Huo Cheng. They didn't trust the girl, but they didn't suspect the eldest sister of the Huo family either.
They just caught the girl and locked her up in the Huo family for a little over a week. They didn't use any torture on her, perhaps because at that time, this girl was of little importance to the Huo family.
Mr. and Mrs. Huo didn't take it too seriously. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the eldest sister of the Huo family came up with a plan. She thought she could stall Huo Cheng first and then tell him the news.
If Mr. and Mrs. Huo harmed this girl, it would be great for Huo Cheng to know. The eldest sister of the Huo family was quite curious about how Huo Cheng would react if he knew that his family had harmed this girl.
Would Huo Cheng blame himself? Would he blame Mr. and Mrs. Huo?
It would be best if this woman could widen the gap between father and son. The eldest sister of the Huo family knew that Huo Cheng and Mr. Huo had never really gotten along well. It was just that Mr. and Mrs. Huo had spent a lot of effort on Huo Cheng in the early years.
No one wanted their efforts to be in vain. Mr. and Mrs. Huo still placed great hopes on Huo Cheng and didn't give the eldest sister of the Huo family any chance.
So this time, after Mr. and Mrs. Huo caught the girl, the eldest sister of the Huo family instead gave Huo Cheng a big project, making him so busy that he had no time to care about other things.
It wasn't until Huo Cheng remembered and sent people to look for the girl that the eldest sister of the Huo family spread the news that Huo Cheng was looking for a woman all over the world to Mr. and Mrs. Huo. As a result, Mr. and Mrs. Huo disliked the girl even more.
Not only that, they also began to suspect Huo Cheng. Just when Huo Cheng had been looking for the girl for a long time, the eldest sister of the Huo family sent someone to tell him that the girl was in the Huo family.
After looking for so long, Huo Cheng couldn't wait to go to the Huo family. It was dinner time. Mr. and Mrs. Huo, the eldest sister of the Huo family, the second brother, and the fifth sister were all there.
Huo Cheng opened his mouth and only asked about the girl in a demanding tone, asking where she was!
This was naturally the work of the eldest sister of the Huo family. The person she sent to inform Huo Cheng specifically described to him how the Huo family would treat the girl.
Even though Huo Cheng didn't fully believe it, he still came to the Huo family with a bit of anger.
But this bit of anger was something Mr. Huo couldn't stand. How could he accept that his youngest son, who had been away for so long and refused to come back, would come back and only talk about a woman?
How could he accept that the youngest son he had valued for so many years would shout at him just for a woman?
"Rascal! What are you talking about?! Is this the way to talk to your father?" Mr. Huo immediately threw down his chopsticks.
Huo Cheng naturally wasn't afraid. He stiffened his neck and insisted on knowing where the girl was.
In the end, the dinner naturally couldn't continue. The eldest sister of the Huo family watched the show on the side, while the fifth sister of the Huo family, Huo Xin, tugged at her fourth brother's clothes, trying to get him to stop arguing.
Just as Huo Xin had never seen Huo Cheng like this, the other members of the Huo family had never seen him like this either.
Mr. and Mrs. Huo finally sent someone to take Huo Cheng to the place where the girl was locked up so that he could see her.
But because Mr. and Mrs. Huo were both angry, they didn't want to easily let Huo Cheng and the girl, who they thought was of unknown origin, go. They intended to make things difficult for them.
Unexpectedly, Huo Cheng directly took the girl and left, completely ignoring them. At that time, Huo Cheng was convinced that his parents couldn't tolerate this girl. If he hadn't arrived in time, the girl would have been in danger.
So Mr. and Mrs. Huo and Huo Cheng were all in a very angry state. Mr. and Mrs. Huo were angry that the child they had cultivated for so many years had finally fallen out with them for a woman.
And Huo Cheng was angry that Mr. and Mrs. Huo could treat a girl like this, especially a girl he had been looking for for a long time. All the pent - up anger finally erupted.
Huo Cheng felt that Mr. and Mrs. Huo just wanted to crush all his own ideas and make him follow the path they had paved for him until he became a puppet.
This time, it also triggered Huo Cheng's anger. At that time, Huo Cheng thought the girl was so pitiful. Thinking that she was the person he had been looking for for so many years, he immediately took her away.
He also left a sentence: "I will never step into the Huo family again!" And thus severed his ties with the Huo family.
