Chapter 455 Turning enemies into enemies
"what happened?"
Zhou Ning asked in surprise.
When the two little guys next to him heard this, they looked at Huo Qingzhou in confusion: "Dad, what's wrong?"
Huo Qingzhou shook his head: "It's okay."
Looking into Huo Qingzhou's eyes, Zhou Ning received his signal tacitly and knew that he probably didn't want to say too much in front of the child.
Then he smiled at the children and said, "Dad is fine, don't worry too much, just eat quickly."
Fortunately, Beibei and Xixi didn’t think much about it. They enjoyed their breakfast and looked very hungry.
After breakfast, while the children were away, Zhou Ning picked up her phone and started to check. When she saw the latest news, she was immediately dumbfounded, frowning, and instantly understood why Huo Qingzhou was looking at the phone with a serious expression just now.
The news is about Huo Wencheng.
Huo Wencheng released the video of him being beaten up by Huo Qingzhou.
Facing the camera, Huo Wencheng, with a bruised face, cried to everyone, saying that Huo Qingzhou had been suppressing him for years in order to consolidate his position and had done anything.
This time, his own position was threatened, so he went straight to him and beat him up without saying a word. The scars on his body and face were enough to prove it.
Huo Wencheng even threatened that Huo Qingzhou even forced him to communicate with those workers and asked them to lie.
Huo Wencheng burst into tears at the end of the video: "I have always been honest and upright, but Mr. Huo has always been targeting me. This time I was beaten and had no choice but to post this video to clarify."
Zhou Ning watched the entire video and found that Huo Wencheng did not fight back, as if he was deliberately being beaten.
Could it be that Huo Wencheng had foreseen this happening when he was being beaten?
Putting down the phone, Zhou Ning turned to Huo Qingzhou and asked, "Did you beat Huo Wencheng?"
Huo Qingzhou hummed.
Somehow, Zhou Ning vaguely saw a hint of pride on his face.
The man's voice sounded quickly: "Do you think I was impulsive and shouldn't have hit him?"
There is a reason why Huo Qingzhou said this.
He also didn't expect that Huo Wencheng had a trick up his sleeve. He had the video of him being beaten up, and since he didn't fight back, he took the initiative to find the media to cry and became a weak person in the eyes of others.
As soon as this video was released, it was seen that Huo Wencheng in the video was indeed beaten very pitifully, and undoubtedly won a lot of sympathy.
Zhou Ning immediately shook her head: "No, he deserves to be beaten! You beat him well, and you beat him very well!"
Huo Qingzhou was surprised when he heard this, and he hugged Zhou Ning in his arms: "Ning Ning, you really don't blame me for being impulsive? The current public opinion doesn't seem good to me."
"Of course not," Zhou Ning shook his head, "Huo Wencheng is just itching for trouble and needs a good beating. You are his eldest brother, so it's most appropriate for you to teach him a lesson. Only beating him yourself can make you feel better!"
Hearing that Zhou Ning stood by him unconditionally, Huo Qingzhou's mouth curled up slightly.
Zhou Ning: "Even if he does this, he will win a lot of sympathy, but he distorts the facts. If everyone knows the details, they will still stand on your side."
Huo Qingzhou touched Zhou Ning's head lovingly: "As long as you always stand by my side, that's enough."
Zhou Ning's face turned red.
Unable to help it, he opened his phone again and saw that the comments online were mixed. Some people stood on Huo Wencheng's side and criticized Huo Qingzhou for hurting his brother for personal gain.
Some people were sensible and questioned the authenticity of the video and stood on Huo Qingzhou's side.
In addition, some people did not express their stance, but just widely reported that the two brothers of the Huo family seemed peaceful on the surface, but were actually treacherous and turned against each other.
The Huo family, the most powerful family in the world, might not be as good as everyone imagines.
Zhou Ning looked at him worriedly and said to Huo Qingzhou: "Now that Huo Wencheng has released this video, what should we do? If shareholders with ulterior motives see it and make a big fuss about it, wouldn't that be detrimental to your position?"
Huo Qingzhou looked calm as he played with Zhou Ning's hand: "My position is very solid, how could it be destroyed so easily? Ning Ning, are you too unconfident about your husband?"
"I... am just worried."
Zhou Ning responded intermittently, wondering what time it was, but Huo Qingzhou was still very calm.
It seemed that no matter what happened, Huo Qingzhou always remained calm.
"Don't worry, this matter won't affect me. I will deal with it as soon as possible. But now I see the comments online. If the old man finds out..."
Halfway through his speech, Huo Qingzhou's eyes gradually turned cold.
Zhou Ning wondered: "Huo Wencheng has always been careless. How did he think of using this video? Also, when he was beaten, did he deliberately not fight back?"
Huo Qingzhou sneered a few times: "Deliberately not fighting back? You think too highly of him. With my military boxing skills, how could he have the strength to fight back?"
Zhou Ning twitched the corners of his mouth. The video he saw only captured a few clips, but just by looking at the scenes, he could imagine how fiercely Huo Qingzhou beat him.
He is agile and has great strength.
Huo Qingzhou spoke in a cold voice:
"However, I am surprised that he could come up with this idea. I will definitely be more careful and vigilant."
"I didn't expect Huo Wencheng to be so bold this time and actually caused trouble again. I won't take the old man's side into consideration this time. Besides, he can never appear in Huo's company again."
Zhou Ning smelled a chill, thinking that Huo Wencheng would be in trouble after this incident, so she nodded vigorously: "I support you."
Huo Qingzhou then immediately stepped aside and made a work call.
Zhou Ning was waiting on the side with some worry. Although Huo Qingzhou looked calm and even told her not to worry, Zhou Ning's heart was in her throat and she had an indescribable feeling.
This feeling reminded her of when Ruan Huan got into trouble. She was helpless and could only twist the Buddhist beads to pray for blessings, but she accidentally dropped the beads on the ground.
The feeling at that time suddenly came over me.
Suddenly, a man's voice came from nearby: "What are you thinking about?"
Zhou Ning came back to her senses and didn't say what she was thinking. If she did, Huo Qingzhou might think she was imagining things, which would be bad if he worried.
Huo Qingzhou has more important things on her hands now, and she doesn't want to cause trouble for the man.
"That's good."
Huo Qingzhou gently touched her cheek, walked up to her, and kissed her forehead affectionately.
Zhou Ning slowly closed her eyes and felt a cool sensation on her forehead.
Suddenly, the man's magnetic voice sounded again: "During this period of time, I have suspended the project related to Mr. Lin. I won't tell you the specific reasons. In any case, you have to pay attention to him, even if he saved you in the beginning."
Hearing Huo Qingzhou's words, Zhou Ning's heart tightened. Could it be that Lin Kaichen was really an extraordinary person?
"I know. I have always kept my distance from him. Now we don't have much contact."
Huo Qingzhou felt relieved, knowing that Zhou Ning had always been very sensible.
Now they trust each other and their relationship will not be affected by irrelevant people or things.
Afraid that Zhou Ning would worry, Huo Qingzhou added: "You don't have to worry either. Mr. Lin and I are competitors in the workplace now, so it's normal to have some friction."
Zhou Ning responded, knowing that the business world was like a battlefield, and no matter what happened, it would not be surprising, especially when it infringed on each other's interests.
There are no eternal friends in the field of interests.
Lin Kaichen now only has a competing interest relationship with Huo Qingzhou. Apart from that, there should be nothing else, right?
Zhou Ning was lost in thought and was about to ask something else when Huo Qingzhou's cell phone rang.
When Huo Qingzhou saw the name displayed on the screen, his brows furrowed.
