Huo Yongan's face was terribly gloomy, as depressing as the dark clouds before a storm.

His sharp eyes were now staring at his son, whom he had always been proud of. There was a complex light flashing in his eyes, including disappointment, anger, and a hint of indescribable helplessness.

In sharp contrast, Huo Chengluo always maintained a calm expression, as if he was not affected at all.

He sat there quietly, his posture upright and his eyes determined, like an unshakable mountain.

These days, Huo Yongan has gained a deeper understanding of his son.

He is far more decisive and ruthless than he imagined, and possesses extraordinary abilities and a meticulous mind.

He was always calm and composed, but every time he attacked suddenly he could hit the opponent's vital points accurately, leaving him unable to fight back.

Huo Yongan took a deep breath and tried to calm his inner turmoil.

He knew that he could no longer treat Huo Chengluo the same way as before, thinking that he was interfering with him in his father's capacity and forcing him to obey him.

This son has proved his strength and determination with practical actions.

He was silent for a moment, but still chose to compromise, "Okay, I won't care anymore. The Holden Group will be yours in the future. Even if you come in as the president of CY now, it's still yours after all."

"As for the affairs of the Horton Group, I will no longer interfere. I will leave it completely to you to take care of."

Huo Chengluo slowly raised his eyes and looked straight at him, and said bluntly: "Father, you should know that I don't really care whether you interfere in the affairs of the group or not."

He emphasized word by word, "Over the years, you have already delegated power to me, so the disputes within the group are not the real conflict between us father and son."

These words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Huo Yongan's heart hard.

He was silent for a moment again, and sighed faintly, as if with deep helplessness, "Chengluo, I know you are dissatisfied with my previous opposition to you and Wen Yiyu being together, and even resentful that I used means that you disdained to force you and Yingxue together."

"But, things have come to this point, and it's a done deal. I did do these things, and you broke up with Wen Yiyou, and now Yingxue is pregnant with your child."

As Huo Chengluo listened, his indifferent expression began to change slightly.

Huo Yongan changed the subject and softened his attitude. "My original intention was not to be hostile to you. Dad is old and there are many things that he can no longer change."

"No matter how much you dislike Yingxue, just treat it as fulfilling Grandpa and Mom's wish. Even if you only leave the child, and then you and Wen Yiyu get back together, Dad won't interfere with you anymore. Is that okay?"

Huo Yongan has been exhausted by the group's affairs in the past two months and has looked much older.

Huo Chengluo lowered his head slightly, crossed his hands on his abdomen, and seemed to be lost in thought.

After a moment, Huo Chengluo slowly raised his head and asked calmly: "Just the child?"

Huo Yongan gritted his teeth and said, "Yes!"

"Even if the child is not mine?"

Huo Yongan frowned, a trace of dissatisfaction and helplessness appeared on his face. He emphasized firmly: "Chengluo, that's the fact, it is indeed your child!"

Huo Chengluo sneered when he heard this.

"Cheng Luo?" Huo Yongan looked at his son's reaction, feeling confused and worried.

Huo Chengluo slowly stood up, patted his father's shoulder gently, and said calmly: "Okay, Dad, leave the rest to me!"

Huo Yongan was delighted when he heard this. He asked anxiously, "Chengluo, are you...promising us?"

Huo Chengluo did not directly answer his father's question, but repeated his previous opinion again: "I said, if you want the child, it's your business, I won't interfere."

This sentence sounded a bit irresponsible, and it didn't sound like something that the usually responsible son Ping would say.

But for Huo Yongan, who had been expecting his son to change his mind, this was a rare concession.

Huo Yongan knew very well that he couldn't push his son too hard. After all, it would take time for him to fully accept this matter.

So, he quickly expressed his position: "Okay, Chengluo, Dad will not interfere with you in the future. Whether it is the company or your personal feelings, Dad will not say a word more."

He hopes that in this way he can gradually narrow the distance between himself and his son and get everything back on track.

Hearing his father's words, Huo Chengluo's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a barely perceptible smile. He patted his father's shoulder again, as if conveying a sense of trust and understanding.

Huo Yongan took the opportunity to ask, "Chengluo, you haven't been home for a long time. Are you going home today?"

There was a hint of expectation in his eyes, hoping that his son would agree.

Huo Chengluo shook his head gently, his eyes revealing a deep meaning, and responded meaningfully: "Not for now. I still have a lot of things to deal with. I will go back after I have dealt with everything."

Huo Yongan was silent for a few seconds, then he nodded, "Okay, then wait until you have dealt with your affairs before going home. We will all be waiting for you at home."

At this moment, Secretary Jiang walked into the room with light steps. She walked to Huo Chengluo with a smile on her face and reported to him respectfully: "Mr. Huo, as soon as the news of the integration and adjustment of CY and Horton Group was announced, the group's stock soared and the market responded very enthusiastically. It can be seen that investors are full of confidence in this integration."

Huo Chengluo's expression did not show any obvious fluctuations, as if everything was under his control. He just nodded slightly to show that he knew.

When Huo Yongan heard the good news, he immediately smiled. The heavy pressure that had been suppressed in his heart for months seemed to be released in an instant, and his eyes were shining with joy.

At the same time, Assistant Konte walked hurriedly into the conference room holding a thick stack of documents. When he saw Huo Yongan, he hesitated for a few seconds. Then he walked straight to Huo Chengluo and silently handed him the documents in his hand.

Huo Chengluo took the information, quickly glanced at the cover, and then said to Huo Yongan, "Dad, I will take care of the rest, please rest assured. You go back and have a rest first!"

After hearing this, Huo Yongan showed a satisfied look on his face. He nodded without any objection and turned away decisively.

Seeing his father's figure gradually moving away and finally disappearing from his sight, Huo Chengluo strode out of the meeting room without hesitation and returned to his spacious and bright office.

Assistant Kant did not dare to delay for even a second and followed closely behind.
