Chapter 150: 147. The Leaked Will (Extra Update 9/9)

Huo Zhiyuan quickly received news about Zhang Siyan from her side and began her own preparations; after all, Zhang Siyan lacked qualifications, and wanting to reach the top in one step was still somewhat difficult.

During this period, despite the approaching New Year, many people had begun to move, and no one was idle.

That evening, in a bar, Huo Li was drinking his sorrows away.

These past few days, he felt that Huo Zhiyuan had changed, becoming completely different from before.

In the past, even if Huo Zhiyuan didn't like going home, as long as her mother called and pleaded, she would always return once a month, even if she couldn't stay for long.

But since four months ago, Huo Zhiyuan had not returned home once; no matter how her mother called, it was useless, and sometimes she would even stop answering the phone altogether.

This was not what worried Huo Li; what worried him most was that Huo Zhiyuan was currently reclaiming his authority.

How long had it been? In just two months, two districts in Shanghai had already been taken back from his hands and given to a young girl.

At the same time, Huo Li could also sense that Huo Zhiyuan's attitude toward him was becoming increasingly cold; this coldness was like treating a stranger, as if the connection in their blood was slowly disappearing.

"President Huo, why are you drinking alone?" the bar owner walked over and said with a smile.

Huo Li glanced at the owner and sighed, saying: "Ran into some troublesome matters, Brother Zhao, have a drink with me!"

He had known the owner of this bar, Zhao Hu, for quite a few years, and their relationship was quite good; moreover, this Zhao Hu had some methods and possessed quite a few connections in many underworld circles.

When Huo Li first acted as an agent for Kangshilan, Zhao Hu had helped quite a bit; of course, over such a long time, Huo Li had also given back quite a lot to Zhao Hu.

Zhao Hu sat down, poured himself a glass of wine, and clinked glasses with Huo Li: "President Huo, if there's any difficulty, tell your brother. Although I don't have great abilities, I'm still of some use; whatever I can help with, I will definitely help you."

Looking at Zhao Hu's heroic and unrestrained appearance, Huo Li sighed and said: "Brother Zhao, you really can't help with this matter. It counts as my personal family affair. Sigh, let's not talk about it, let's drink."

Once Zhao Hu heard Huo Li say this, he stopped asking, and both sides began to drink.

After accompanying Huo Li for nearly an hour, Zhao Hu got up to leave, saying to Huo Li before leaving: "President Huo, if you encounter troublesome things, go upstairs and have some fun. Today, all of President Huo's expenses are on the house."

"Thank you, Brother Zhao."

Huo Li also followed Zhao Hu's suggestion and began to go on stage to vent the depression in his heart. Very quickly, a beautiful woman approached Huo Li; she looked to be in her thirties and had a very good figure.

Huo Li didn't mind; he had encountered such things many times. After all, his outfit wasn't cheap, and although he was a bit older, because he had taken good care of himself over the years, he looked like he was in his forties.

"Beauty, want to go have a drink?" Huo Li smiled at the beauty.

"Sure." This beauty was not reserved either.

However, after sitting down, Huo Li looked at this person and felt she looked somewhat familiar. "Beauty, have we met somewhere before?" Huo Li was somewhat puzzled.

That beauty hadn't looked at him carefully yet and just said casually: "Friend, your pick-up line is too cliché, isn't it?"

After finishing, she took a careful look and also revealed a look of surprise: "President Huo?"

At this moment, Huo Li also remembered who this person was: "Su Yu?"

"It really is you, President Huo. I didn't expect to meet here." Su Yu looked at Huo Li with flowing eyes, appearing very pleasantly surprised.

Huo Li also smiled: "Secretary Su, it's been a long time. Where have you been making your fortune lately?"

This person was Huo Zhiyuan's former secretary, Su Yu.

Hearing Huo Li ask this, Su Yu immediately revealed a resentful look: "Sigh, now I can only work as a clerk in a small company. I'm busy as hell every day and can't earn much money, so I can only come here at night to vent."

Huo Li asked curiously: "Secretary Su, why did you resign back then?"

Although Huo Li had heard a bit of news saying that she had leaked some company secrets, no one knew the real situation.

Hearing Huo Li ask this, Su Yu immediately had a hesitant look: "Forget it, if Secretary Su doesn't want to say, then forget it."

Huo Li didn't intend to get to the bottom of it; after all, it didn't concern him, and he was just curious.

At the same time, looking at Su Yu's exquisite figure, he was drooling a bit. Back then, Su Yu was someone by Huo Zhiyuan's side, and he had only watched and coveted her, not even daring to make lewd remarks, but now it was different.

"Come, Secretary Su, drink." Huo Li said loudly.

Su Yu was not reserved either and drank a glass directly with Huo Li, then said: "President Huo, don't call me Secretary Su anymore. I am no longer President Huo's secretary; you can call me Xiao Su or Su Yu."

"Alright, Xiao Su."

Afterward, the two began to drink like this. Su Yu had come with a purpose, while Huo Li was in a bad mood, so he didn't hold back while drinking and downed everything in one gulp.

Very quickly, both were somewhat tipsy. Not knowing if it was a slip of the tongue, Su Yu suddenly said drunkenly at this moment: "Sigh, I really did wrong back then; I shouldn't have been blinded by greed and revealed that matter."

Huo Li asked casually: "What matter?"

"Isn't it about President Huo's will... ah, I didn't say anything." Just as she said this, Su Yu seemed to wake up from her fright and immediately changed her words.

But Huo Li also sobered up instantly. He knew that the "President Huo" in Su Yu's mouth was definitely not him, but Huo Zhiyuan. Huo Zhiyuan had made a will? How did he not know?

In this instant, Huo Li became completely sober.

"Su Yu, what will were you talking about just now?" Huo Li stared at Su Yu and asked.

Su Yu hurriedly covered it up: "President Huo heard wrong, there is no will, I was saying..."

"I didn't hear wrong, what you just said was indeed a will." Huo Li wouldn't be fooled by Su Yu just like that.

But Su Yu insisted that she hadn't said anything about a will, and Huo Li had no way to deal with it. However, he looked at the clothes Su Yu was wearing now and suddenly took a bank card out of his pocket: "There are 200,000 in here, you take it."

Su Yu looked at the bank card but didn't take it, still saying: "President Huo, you really heard wrong."

"500,000!"

"President Huo..."

"One million!"

When Huo Li said one million, Su Yu finally couldn't hold on, her lips trembling as she said: "President Huo, will you keep your word?"

"Of course, tell me quickly, what is going on with the will?" Huo Li now became somewhat violent.

Su Yu hesitated for a moment, looked at Huo Li, and finally said: "President Huo, it's not that I don't believe you, but this matter is indeed related to you, so I want to see the money with my own eyes."

Hearing Su Yu say this, Huo Li took a deep breath and, without another word, transferred one million to Su Yu directly. Once Su Yu received the money, he stared at her fixedly and said word by word: "What exactly is the will?"

Having received the money, Su Yu seemed to have completely given up resistance: "Back then, President Huo did indeed draw up a will, and the content of the will was that after President Huo's death, all assets under her name, including but not limited to, Kangshilan shares, real estate such as villas, as well as cash..."

Every time Su Yu said a word, Huo Li's breathing grew heavier.

He now felt the blood rushing to his head: "... are all donated unconditionally to the Yuanran Charitable Foundation."

Once these words were out, Huo Li felt his head was about to explode!

Donating everything free of charge to the Yuanran Charity Foundation?

This is equivalent to saying that as long as Huo Zhiyuan dies, then they, these relatives, won't get a single cent, and even the house his parents are currently living in will be donated!

Because these are all real estate properties under Huo Zhiyuan's name!

After Su Yu finished speaking, she looked at Huo Li with some worry and called out to him twice, seeing that Huo Li had no reaction.

"Is what you said true?" Huo Li's eyes were now filled with bloodshot veins!

Su Yu swore to the heavens: "It is absolutely true. I was one of the witnesses; otherwise, President Huo wouldn't have fired me just because I accidentally let it slip."
