Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 575 - 556: Thinking About Handling the Aftermath

Lin Banxia was still uneasy, her face full of sorrow as she looked at Gu Qianxi and asked, "You said his condition could either be mild or severe. Does that mean there might be aftereffects?"

Gu Qianxi knew how much Huo Yanting doted on his young wife and didn’t dare to say anything that might make her worry further. He quickly smiled and replied, "No, Miss Lin, you can rest assured. With me here, I will make sure nothing happens to him."

"Dean Gu, you must convince him to get a thorough check-up. I’m really worried about him," Lin Banxia said anxiously.

"Alright, I will!" Gu Qianxi nodded and promised.

Lin Banxia sensibly left the space to the two brothers, turning around and walking out the door.

As soon as Lin Banxia left, Gu Qianxi breathed a sigh of relief, finally speaking openly: "How could you be so careless? To actually let someone hit you—do you have any idea who was behind it?"

Although Huo Yanting knew perfectly well, he didn’t want to tell his friend the truth. He had to keep this matter under wraps for now.

"I’m not certain at the moment, but I’ve already sent Qi Han to investigate," Huo Yanting shook his head and replied in a deep voice.

"You need to investigate thoroughly. Your Huo Family has plenty of enemies. If you find any hidden dangers, you must deal with them promptly," Gu Qianxi said through clenched teeth, indignantly.

"Don’t worry. I will get to the bottom of this. If I find out who’s behind this, I’ll make them regret it," Huo Yanting sneered coldly, his heart completely chilled toward his uncle.

In the past, he didn’t believe that power could make someone lose their conscience. But now, he was starting to realize that for power and profit, even the closest of kin could turn into terrifying enemies.

After leaving the hospital, Huo Tianfeng’s expression was dark and gloomy. Sitting in his car, he immediately called Chu Younan.

"He’s not dead!" His opening words directly transferred all the negativity to Chu Younan.

"How is that possible?" Chu Younan refused to accept this outcome.

"I thought for sure he wouldn’t survive this time, but I didn’t expect him to be so resilient. The car was totaled, and yet he only injured his head and leg—and they even managed to save him," Huo Tianfeng was seething with rage.

"What do we do now? If he survives, he’ll definitely investigate this matter thoroughly," Chu Younan said, deeply worried about his own position.

"Don’t worry. There’s nothing in this world that money can’t solve. I’ll offer those people a higher price and have them get out of the country quickly!" At this moment, all Huo Tianfeng wanted was to clean up the aftermath and prevent Huo Yanting from tracing things back to him.

"Will that work? These mercenaries are ruthless in their pursuit of money. Sure, you have wealth, but Huo Yanting controls even more than you do. If they consider that angle, they might become our greatest obstacle," Chu Younan analyzed rationally. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Then what do you think is the best way to resolve this?" Huo Tianfeng suddenly felt a mix of nervousness and fear creeping in.

"Is it possible to kill Huo Yanting a second time?" Chu Younan suggested, thinking that as long as Huo Yanting was dead, there would be nothing to fear anymore.

"It’s unlikely. Huo Yanting is on guard now; we won’t get another chance. Moreover, we can’t risk exposing too many flaws or leaving behind evidence. For now, the only thing we can do is distance ourselves from this matter completely," Huo Tianfeng carefully weighed his options and decided to hold off on targeting Huo Yanting again.

"Then you need to hurry and hire another group to eliminate the ones you sent this time. That way, the evidence can be destroyed."

"I was already thinking the same thing. Killing them will definitely be easier than killing Huo Yanting." Huo Tianfeng began taking steps to clean up the situation.
