Taming The Hidden Bigshot By Kissing Him-Chapter 671: Not Even the Daluo Golden Immortal Can Save It

Chapter 671: Chapter 671: Not Even the Daluo Golden Immortal Can Save It

Funeral?

Sun Weimeng was taken aback, looked at him and asked, "Whose funeral?"

"We’ll have to wait for news."

Huo Xingzhou turned to look at the tightly closed door. When Cheng Han was brought back, he was barely alive, covered in blood. Given his age and this ordeal, survival was uncertain.

The person enduring the most agony at this moment was definitely Qiao Xi.

Sun Weimeng was shocked internally: "I hope I’m not here for national doctor Cheng Han’s funeral, right? This elderly gentleman saved me from danger; even the first prescription Qiao Xi gave me was from him. He can’t have anything happen to him..."

"Too many people want him dead."

Huo Xingzhou’s eyes were deep and intense.

Sun Weimeng, seeing his terrifying expression, dared not speak, just stayed by his side in the corridor, not daring to wander.

The entire Huo Family villa felt like an ice cellar.

Sun Weimeng didn’t dare to even breathe loudly.

After waiting in the hallway for an unknown amount of time, the door finally opened.

Qiao Xi emerged, exhausted, covered in bloodstains, her fingers trembling.

Her eyes were full of red blood vessels.

Sun Weimeng rushed up and asked, "How is it? Did you save him? Why don’t we send him to the hospital and get expert consultation? It’s too much for you to handle alone."

Qiao Xi’s voice was dry. She glanced at Sun Weimeng, then focused on Huo Xingzhou, who was approaching quickly: "The injuries are severe. I’ve done my best to keep Grandpa Cheng alive. But he has multiple internal bruises, and the rest depends on his fortune."

She wasn’t sure what he’ll be like when he wakes up.

Because the fall injured his brain, his limbs have various degrees of damage, and his organs also suffered.

If someone truly harmed him, it was with the intent to kill.

Qiao Xi couldn’t help wondering if they’d been a bit later, would Grandpa Cheng’s life have been recoverable.

"You’ve done really well keeping him alive. The ones who found him during the fall didn’t even check thoroughly and waited a few days. Maybe they thought he was surely dead." Huo Xingzhou sneered.

He was found in a remote mountain forest, sparsely populated.

If he hadn’t sent out so many elite wilderness survival experts, they’d truly not have found him.

Moreover, by seeing the height and traces where Cheng Han fell, it had been several days.

From this height and the time delay, anyone would think he’s dead!

No one expected this elderly man’s resilience to be so strong; what kind of faith sustained him this long!

He forcibly refused to take his last breath!

Qiao Xi pressed her dry lips and asked, "So what do we do next? Can we still proceed with the plan you told me about last time?"

"Of course!"

Huo Xingzhou closed his eyes slightly and said blandly, "Next... announce the funeral! We need to spread a grandiose lie, create a shocking rumor. Declare publicly that national doctor Cheng Han is dead."

"..."

Qiao Xi looked at him, her fingers clenched into fists, "Will it work? What if there are flaws?"

"There won’t be."

Huo Xingzhou extended his hand, opening her fingers one by one, "Trust me, I’ve arranged everything. Also, no one would expect you, as Cheng Han’s disciple, to make such a big joke; we’ll do the opposite. Grandpa Cheng, if he wakes up, will surely understand us."

Qiao Xi took a deep breath: "Just as well, I can approach the woman surnamed Cheng from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Association. We’ll privately do a paternity test. See if they truly are biological father and daughter. If not, it’ll mean Lu Family intended it, and I won’t need to use Jade Skin Ointment to swap."

There’s another tricky issue.

Qiao Xi blinked her eyelashes, deciding to wait for the paternity test results between Grandpa Cheng and that Ms. Cheng first.

"Luckily, Old Chen preserved a few strands of Ms. Cheng’s hair last time; it’ll come in handy now." Qiao Xi marveled at Old Chen’s cleverness.

Huo Xingzhou reminded, "The paternity test needs to be done in Haicheng; in the Imperial Capital, news would leak. I’ll arrange tonight for the bodyguards to take things to Haicheng, get results as soon as possible."

"Mm!"

The couple discussed all the details, leaving Sun Weimeng overhearing it all until his mind was about to explode.

He opened his mouth, somewhat incredulous.

"You’re even going to spread such a lie, isn’t this cursing Mr. Cheng? You’re far too bold, aren’t you afraid of being criticized by Mr. Cheng’s followers?"

Huo Xingzhou looked at him and said, "As long as you keep your mouth shut, no one should criticize us. At the right opportunity, we naturally will apologize publicly."

"When is that right opportunity?"

"The day we overthrow the Lu Family."

Once Lu Yingxue and Lu Bannong are punished, everything can stop.

To destroy them, we must first drive them mad.

Surely, upon confirmation of Cheng Han’s death, the Lu Family will act more recklessly.

Sun Weimeng’s mind was in chaos, instinctively he said, "Rest assured, even if the Lu Family captures me and uses torture, I won’t submit. I vow to battle evil forces to the end!"

He suddenly remembered something, "Should we tell Huo Sijiao?"

"No. Assign tight security on the third floor; whatever she experiences shows on her face, it’s easier for Lu Family people to notice."

"Oh."

Sun Weimeng nodded, the biggest pressure was now on him! ƒreewebɳovel.com

Huo Xingzhou looked at the bodyguard standing in the corridor and said, "Now arrange the funeral home, the biggest in the Imperial Capital. Send the body to cremation promptly. If anyone asks, say the fall made it a bloody mess, left in the wilderness for days, not fit to be seen."

"Yes, President Huo."

Upon hearing this, the bodyguard immediately went to arrange.

Sun Weimeng didn’t dare ask where the body came from, mixing with Huo Xingzhou for a long time, he truly feared one day being silenced.

Soon.

News of a big incident at the Huo Family spread throughout the Imperial Capital.

People were dispatched overnight to contact the funeral home, summon those out, even Huo Xingzhou pushed aside all important meetings, and Qiao Xi refused many appointments.

With such major actions, how could those with ulterior motives remain unaware!

...

The night was dark.

The Lu Family was brightly lit.

Lu Bannong opened an expensive bottle of champagne in the living room.

He usually didn’t drink much, and Lu Yingxue had never seen her father so smiling and happy. Her father was always strict with her in private, with rigorous discipline, never allowing slack.

She rarely saw him in such a good mood, so she sat across from him.

"Father, what makes you so happy is..."

"The Huo Family finally discovered Cheng Han’s body. After so many days, he’s probably been eaten by wild beasts in the mountains and forests, unrecognizable. I heard the Huo Family directly sent him for cremation..."

His people had long reported Cheng Han was dead, fallen off a cliff without a trace.

An eighty-year-old man falling like this, even the Daluo Golden Immortal couldn’t save him!

Lu Bannong felt his deep concern removed; no one would ever pursue the events of that year again, how refreshing!

"That’s really good news! I suppose Qiao Xi will be heartbroken, huh. I’d really love to see it myself."

Lu Yingxue said one thing, hesitating to continue.

Lu Bannong took a sip of champagne and said to her, "If you have something to say, just say it."
