What to Do If I Become the Villain's Daughter

38

Huo Corporation issued a statement that day.

The statement claimed that there was no improper relationship between Huo Xiaozheng and Ms. Huo Jing, and that they would hold those spreading rumors accountable. It also advised netizens that the internet is not a lawless place and hoped everyone would be cautious with their words and actions.

Huo Jing's management company quickly reposted Huo Corporation's statement, also attaching a lawyer's letter, suing several of the most popular marketing accounts spreading rumors.

Meanwhile, Xi Chuan contacted Huo Siyuan, inviting him to the headquarters.

Huo Siyuan arrived quickly, and seeing Xi Chuan waiting for him in the lobby, he became even more arrogant, feeling that he had Huo Xiaozheng cornered at this crucial moment.

When Huo Xiaozheng saw him, he got straight to the point, directly asking him to persuade the protest leader to cooperate with the company's investigation.

Huo Siyuan was stunned for a moment.

He sauntered to the sofa and sat down without a sideways glance.

Suddenly, he felt something soft poking him.

He reached under his bottom and pulled out a gray petal rabbit plush toy, which he tossed to the other end with disgust before settling back down, crossing his legs and resting his hands on the sofa, looking every bit the owner.

"Nephew, by rights, if you ask for this favor, I must help," Huo Siyuan said, playing hard to get. "But I've been busy with my transfer lately, and I'm afraid I just don't have the capacity."

Huo Xiaozheng leaned on his desk, elegantly holding a cup of coffee, taking a small sip without responding.

Huo Siyuan wasn't annoyed and ordered Xi Chuan, "Get me a coffee."

Xi Chuan glanced at Huo Xiaozheng before having the secretary bring him a cup of coffee.

Huo Siyuan mimicked Huo Xiaozheng's manner, stirring his coffee and was about to taste it when...

"So what exactly are you suggesting?" Huo Xiaozheng suddenly spoke.

Huo Siyuan immediately took a sip of coffee but burned his throat, grimacing for a while before recovering.

"What I mean is..." Without time to scold Xi Chuan, Huo Siyuan quickly replied, "It's simple, nephew. If you transfer me to headquarters and put me in charge of this matter, I'll handle it perfectly for you!"

Huo Xiaozheng smiled, thinking his appetite was quite large.

"Oh? You're that confident?"

Seeing that Huo Xiaozheng didn't immediately refuse, Huo Siyuan's confidence soared. "Of course! He was laid off because he wasn't good enough at his job. What's there to make a fuss about?

"Besides, dealing with these common folk is very simple. Middle-aged people, no matter how much dignity they have, can't stand up to having children and elderly at home..."

Huo Siyuan went on and on, clearly not his first time doing this kind of thing.

In the past, this sort of thing wouldn't have stirred much emotion in Huo Xiaozheng, but now he had a daughter.

Although they hadn't been together long, remembering what the psychologist had told him today, listening to Huo Siyuan's boasting made his blood boil.

Huo Xiaozheng's eyes were cold, but his tone remained level: "Since you're so experienced, why don't you take full responsibility for this matter?"
