Chapter 202: A Tragic End

Huo Xuan crossed his legs and sat lazily on the sofa. The one who was pointing a gun at Huo Sisi was Huo Ning.

Huo Sisi was shocked. She didn’t expect Huo Ning to still be around at this time. Didn’t Huo Ning usually go back at this time?

That was not important. What was important was that she could be killed by a bullet at any moment!

“I-I saw that Brother didn’t go downstairs to eat tonight. I only came to send you something to eat. I-I didn’t mean anything else.”

Huo Xuan sat on the sofa with one hand on the back of the sofa and the other playing with his phone.

He looked up at her calmly. “Huo Sisi, you’re quite bold.”

Huo Sisi, who was carrying the tray, trembled in fear and her face turned pale. “B-Brother, I don’t quite understand what you mean. I’m just here to deliver food to you. I didn’t…”

“Kneel.”

Huo Sisi immediately knelt down.

Huo Ning snatched the tray from her hand and placed it on the ground. He pointed the gun at her with one hand and took out his phone with the other. “Get someone to the study to investigate if something was placed in Sir’s food.”

Huo Sisi almost fainted when she heard that.

H-how did they know?

She had been so careful.

After saying that, Huo Ning turned on his phone and placed the image in front of Huo Sisi. “Do you see what this is?”

It was an extremely familiar scene.

Wasn’t it just her and Cao Ming in the ward…

Huo Sisi widened her eyes in fear, “B-Brother, no, it’s not like that. I-I was forced. I didn’t do it willingly. Brother, you have to seek justice for me…”

Huo Sisi was already so flustered that she didn’t know what to do. She knew that she was finished.

This surveillance video was obviously taken in the ward. In other words, all of this was done by Cao Ming. He had actually installed the surveillance camera before that!

“Just a few minutes ago, this video was all over the Internet. If I hadn’t handled it in time, do you know how much the Huo Family would have been implicated and lost?” Huo Xuan exuded an evil aura that made people shiver.

Huo Sisi was filled with fear, but she only managed to grasp the key words “The video is all over the Internet”.

A few minutes. No matter how timely it was, it must have been seen by many people.

She was finished!

Without caring about the gun pointing at her forehead, Huo Sisi fell to the ground with a pale face.

However, she suddenly thought of something and her eyes lit up again, “Brother, you have a way to help me, right? Cao Ming forced me. He really forced me…”

Before she could finish speaking, she was slapped to the ground by Sun Xiangxiang, who had rushed in!

Sun Xiangxiang was trembling in anger. “Y-you! You’re still denying it! I thought I was wrong when I saw the video just now. I didn’t expect it to really be you!” Huo Ning’s phone was still playing the video. She couldn’t see it, but the sounds could be clearly heard.

Sun Xiangxiang felt disgusted. “How did I raise such a shameless daughter like you!”

“Forced? Do you think we’re blind? We can’t see that it’s you… I’m embarrassed to say that because I don’t have the face!”

Other than Sun Xiangxiang, Huo Lin, Yan Jinyu, and Huo Siyu were all standing on the stairs outside the study.

Huo Lin’s expression was also dark.

Only Yan Jinyu and Huo Siyu watched the show without changing their expressions.

“No matter what, I thought that at least you still cared about Xuan’er. I knew that Xuan’er was busy with work and didn’t have time to eat, so I sent him food. So you actually had the intention of making my son a cuckold!” Sun Xiangxiang glanced at the bowl of medicinal food angrily.

She had heard what Huo Ning said when he called to investigate if something had been planted.

She wished she could slap Huo Sisi to death now.

“Who gave you the guts to scheme against my son like this!” As she spoke, she slapped her again.

Huo Sisi’s face was swollen.

“Back then, I saw that you were pitiful and looked a little like Rainy, so I brought you back to the Huo Family and gave you everything that a legitimate daughter of the Huo Family could have. I didn’t expect you to be such a disaster!”

“Previously, Rainy said that you were evil and schemed against her at the banquet. I still thought that you were a kind and sensible child and made many excuses for you. But what about you?”

“Even if I don’t have any evidence now, I still believe what Rainy said. Poor Rainy. She almost suffered a huge calamity because I couldn’t see through a person!”

Huo Sisi didn’t dare to refute at all because the gun was pressed against her head. She didn’t dare to act rashly. She knew very well how Huo Xuan handled things and it was entirely possible that he would end her with one shot.

“Mom, I know I’m wrong. This time, even if I wish that it didn’t happen, it’d already happened. I’m still the daughter of the Huo Family now. If, if this matter gets out, the Huo Family’s reputation will also be damaged. I-I have to get rid of this matter…”

“Huo Sisi, you’re still saying such words now. You’re really thick-skinned.” Huo Siyu sneered.

“It was originally a family scandal. I thought that I would settle this privately and not let outsiders see it as a joke. However, you’ve made an even bigger joke for me. The video has been spreading everywhere. Now, I’m afraid all the families in South City who have interacted with the Huo Family know about it.”

Huo Lin was telling Huo Sisi that he already knew about this.

Huo Sisi was terrified.

Huo Lin couldn’t be bothered to look at her anymore. He said to Yan Jinyu, “Jinyu rarely comes to the Huo Family as a guest, but we’ve let you see such a thing. What a disgrace.”

“Uncle, you’re being too serious.”

Yan Jinyu smiled, “You guys go ahead. I’ll go back to my room first.”

How could she not tell that Huo Lin wanted to send her away so obviously?

She did not intend to come over initially. However, Little Rain acted coyly and pulled her along to watch the show. She was helpless and could only follow.

Just as she was about to turn around, Huo Xuan, who was sitting on the sofa, said, “There’s no need to hide.”

“Can’t others see what she did?”

“Besides, Eldest Miss Yan is Rainy’s friend. She’s not an outsider.”

After saying that, Huo Xuan ignored them and looked at Huo Ning, “If you find out that there’s something in the medicinal cuisine, just kill her.”

“It’s fine if you usually do whatever you want, but you dare to ruin the Huo Family’s reputation and even dare to target me. Aren’t you tired of living?”

“No, no, Brother. It’s not like that… I didn’t mean to ruin the Huo Family’s reputation. T-this medicinal dish… I have no idea either. The servants in the kitchen prepared it and served it. I-I didn’t do anything…”

Huo Xuan glanced over with an evil gaze, “Do you think I would care if you were the one who put something in this medicinal dish? Or would I care if you really put something in it?”

Huo Sisi could tell that he wasn’t joking and was scared silly. She hurriedly kowtowed, “Big Brother, Big Brother, I was wrong. Please forgive me this time. I won’t dare to do it again. I won’t dare to do it again… I-I’m the daughter of the Huo Family. It’s not easy for the Huo Family to explain to the public that I’ve suddenly disappeared…”

“What’s wrong with explaining it to the public?” Huo Siyu ignored Huo Sisi’s angry glare and said, “Wouldn’t it be better to say that you felt insulted and have no face to live in this world and hung yourself to protect your reputation?”

“This will not only save the Huo Family’s eldest daughter’s reputation, but also the Huo Family’s reputation. Isn’t that good?”

This was indeed a good idea.

However, when Huo Siyu suggested this ruthless method, Huo Lin and Sun Xiangxiang were both a little taken aback.

Only Huo Xuan’s gaze on Huo Siyu darkened.

Killing someone did not seem to be a big deal to Rainy.

Such understanding and temperament could not be nurtured overnight.

He instructed Huo Ning, “There’s no need to investigate the medicinal dish anymore. Deal with it as Rainy said. Deal with the news and public opinion first before getting the Cao Family to give an explanation.”

Under Huo Sisi’s ashen gaze, Huo Ning was about to fire the gun with a silencer when Huo Siyu suddenly said, “I’ll do it.”

Huo Ning was stunned. He looked at the gun in his hand and then at her.

Was that what she meant?

Huo Siyu smiled. “Let me do it. Of course, I have to deal with the person who wants to harm me personally.”

She looked at Huo Sisi, “Huo Sisi, I’m afraid you didn’t even realize that I pretended to be drugged at the banquet on purpose, right? Oh, I told you before that I let you off easy, right? In that case, do you know that I did it on purpose?”

“Do you know why I deliberately pretended to be drugged?”

Huo Sisi’s eyes widened.

“Because I want to use the fastest way to find out who the mastermind is. You had the biggest reaction among the group of people who rushed in when I was drugged. It’s just that other than me, nobody’s attention was on you at that time.”

“You’re indeed very smart and cautious. You don’t let anyone have any evidence against you.”

“But so what? Didn’t you fall in the end too?”

“You always want to scheme against me. Unfortunately, your skills are not enough with me.”

“Isn’t it good if you’d know your place? You would still be the eldest daughter of the Huo Family. In the future, you can use the Huo Family as your backing to marry into a good family and live a carefree life. Why do you have to think about things that don’t belong to you?”

“What do you know!” Huo Sisi probably knew that she couldn’t turn the situation around, so she burst out with all the resentment in her heart. “I’m the eldest daughter of the Huo Family, the only daughter of the Huo Family. You’re already lost, but why did you come back to fight with me?”

“What equal treatment? An adopted daughter is still an adopted daughter. How can I compare to the biological daughter? Sooner or later, my position will be replaced by you. There will be no place for me in the Huo Family anymore!”

“It’s easy for you to say about marrying into a good family. In South City, who else can compare to the Huo Family? Oh, not only South City, even in the capital, the Huo Family is comparable to the three top families. Where can I find such a family?”

“Besides, why should I marry someone else? I like Big Brother!”

Huo Xuan’s expression darkened.

Huo Lin and Sun Xiangxiang had ugly expressions.

Huo Siyu smiled. “You’re quite ambitious. You even denied it when I said that you have such thoughts about my brother. Now, you’re slapping yourself in the face, right?”

“Initially, you didn’t have to die in pain to end everything. Now, Huo Sisi, what do you think will happen to you?”

“Give me the gun.” She reached out and Huo Ning was inexplicably frightened by her aura.

By the time he reacted, the gun was already in her hand.

Huo Sisi held the gun in her hand and weighed it in her hand. She curled her fingers and aimed it at Huo Sisi’s leg.

Huo Xuan watched her actions.

His eyes darkened.

This was not the first time she had touched a gun. On the contrary, Rainy’s technique was very skilled.

“Huo Sisi, tell me. If I cripple your legs and let you marry Cao Ming, what will happen to you in the future?”

“Rainy…” Sun Xiangxiang wanted to stop her.

It was not because of Huo Sisi, but because she did not want Huo Siyu to be tainted by blood.

Huo Siyu smiled at her. “It’s fine, Mom. It’s just a small matter.”

“Just leave these matters to your brother. Don’t scare your friend,” Huo Lin said hesitantly.

Hearing his words, Huo Siyu and Huo Xuan looked at Yan Jinyu, who was smiling calmly at the side.

Scare Beauty Yu?

Scare her?

She was probably braver than anyone else.

Didn’t you see that she was still smiling?

“There’s no need for that.”

“Huo Siyu, how dare you!”

“See if I dare.” She hooked her fingers and made two bangs.

Huo Sisi’s heartbreaking screams came from the study.

Sun Xiangxiang closed her eyes in shock.

Looking at Huo Siyu, who did not even blink and was even blowing on the gun with a hint of evilness and killing intent, Huo Xuan did not say anything, but his heart felt uncomfortable.

He glanced at Huo Ning. “Shut her up and drag her out.”

“In addition, inform the Cao Family that if they don’t want their entire family to be destroyed, come and discuss the marriage with the Huo Family.”

“Yes, Sir.”

Huo Sisi was gagged and dragged out.

At this moment, the professional who was checking if something had been added in the medicinal dish arrived.

The results of the examination were that there was indeed medicine added and it was very strong.

Huo Sisi had probably even taken Huo Xuan’s self-control into consideration. In order to ensure that she was successful, she had added in ten times the normal dosage.

Upon knowing this outcome, Huo Lin and Sun Xiangxiang, especially Sun Xiangxiang, were so angry that her eyes turned red. She wished she could rush over and slap Huo Sisi twice.

“Xuan’er, make the decision yourself. I’ll bring your mother back to her room.”

Huo Xuan nodded, and Huo Lin left with Sun Xiangxiang.

Instantly, there were only three people left in the study.

“How did Rainy know that Huo Sisi had put something in the medicinal dish?” Huo Xuan waved the phone in his hand.

It was obvious that Huo Xuan didn’t go downstairs to eat because he had received a message from Huo Siyu, reminding him that Huo Sisi had done something.

Huo Siyu’s intention was to tell Huo Xuan to be careful when he ate.

However, Huo Xuan’s plan was to get rid of Huo Sisi in one go.

She specially waited in the study.

Huo Sisi indeed did not disappoint him. She brought the things upstairs.

“Even without my reminder, Brother wouldn’t have fallen for it, right?”

Huo Xuan smiled without saying a word.

If even Huo Sisi could scheme against him, how could he possibly convince the entire Huo Family with such a sickly body?

“Brother, you can settle the rest. Beauty Yu and I will return to the room first.”

“Rainy,” Huo Xuan called out to her.

Huo Siyu stopped and turned back. She smiled and asked, “Brother, is there anything else?”

“You’ve touched a gun before?”

Huo Siyu smiled. “No, but I’ve touched many toy guns.”

After saying that, she turned and left.

Huo Xuan looked at their backs and was silent for a long time.
