The CEO's 100 Billion Bride: The Secret War of the Rich

Huo's Group successfully resolved the threat from Wang's Group, and everyone in the company breathed a sigh of relief. However, Huo Yanshen and Su Wanwan did not relax at all, as they knew that this crisis might be just the tip of the iceberg.

That night, Huo Yanshen and Su Wanwan returned home early, which was rare. They sat on the sofa in the living room, enjoying their rare time together.

"Shen Yan," Su Wanwan leaned on her husband's shoulder and said softly, "When can our lives really calm down?"

Huo Yanshen put his arm around his wife's shoulders and said gently, "Wanwan, in the business world, calm may just be the quiet before the storm. But as long as we are together, there is nothing to be afraid of."

At this moment, Huo Yanshen's phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID and his face instantly became solemn.

"What's wrong?" Su Wanwan noticed her husband's abnormality and asked with concern.

Huo Yan took a deep breath and said, "It's Uncle Lin. He said he has something urgent to see me and asked us to go to the old house immediately."

Su Wanwan's heart tightened: "It's so late, will something happen?"

Huo Yanshen shook his head: "I don't know, but Uncle Lin is rarely so anxious. Let's go and take a look."

The two quickly changed their clothes and drove to the Huo family's old house. Along the way, Huo Yanshen seemed to be worried.

"Yan Shen," Su Wanwan called softly, "What are you thinking about?"

Huo Yanshen came back to his senses and forced a smile: "Nothing, I was just wondering why Uncle Lin was so anxious to see us."

Su Wanwan held her husband's hand and said, "Don't worry, no matter what happens, we will face it together."

Huo Yan looked at his wife with gratitude and nodded heavily.

It was already late at night when they arrived at the old house. Steward Lin personally greeted them at the door.

"Mr. Huo, Madam," Butler Lin said solemnly, "The old man is waiting for you in the study."

Huo Yanshen and Su Wanwan looked at each other, and saw worry in each other's eyes. They walked quickly to the study and gently opened the door.

Mr. Huo sat behind the desk with a serious look on his face. When he saw the two people come in, he motioned for them to sit down.

"Grandpa," Huo Yanshen said, "You called us here so late. Did something happen?"

Mr. Huo sighed deeply: "Yan Shen, Wan Wan, there is something I have been hiding from you. But now, I have to tell you."

Su Wanwan nervously held Huo Yanshen's hand, and Huo Yanshen also held his wife's hand in return, giving each other strength.

Mr. Huo spoke slowly: "Yan Shen, there are actually some truths about your parents that you don't know."

Huo Yanshen's body tensed up instantly: "Grandpa, what do you mean?"

Mr. Huo took out an old envelope from the drawer and handed it to Huo Yanshen: "This is a letter left by your father. Twenty years ago, the day before they died, he gave this letter to me and asked me to give it to you at the appropriate time."

Huo Yanshen took the envelope tremblingly and opened it carefully. As he read the contents of the letter, his face became paler and paler.

"This... this is impossible!" Huo Yanshen exclaimed, "Grandpa, is this true?"

Mr. Huo nodded solemnly: "It's all true. Your father discovered a shocking conspiracy, but he died before he could investigate it thoroughly."

Su Wanwan looked at her husband worriedly: "Yan Shen, what's going on?"

Huo Yan took a deep breath and handed the letter to his wife: "Wanwan, take a look."

Su Wanwan read the contents of the letter carefully, and the more she read, the more shocked she became. It turned out that 20 years ago, Huo Yanshen's father discovered that a transnational criminal organization was using the resources of the Huo Group to conduct illegal transactions. He wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly, but unfortunately he was killed.

"Grandpa," Huo Yanshen's voice trembled a little, "Why are you telling me this now?"

Mr. Huo smiled bitterly and said, "I have been waiting for the right time. But recently, I found that the organization has become active again. I am afraid... I am afraid that you will be in danger."

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from outside. Then, the whole old house fell into darkness.

"Not good!" Mr. Huo stood up suddenly, "They are coming!"

Huo Yanshen reacted immediately and pulled Su Wanwan up: "Wanwan, we have to leave here immediately!"

As soon as the three rushed out of the study, they heard a chaotic sound of footsteps and gunshots coming from downstairs.

"Follow me!" Old Master Huo whispered, and quickly ran to the backyard with the two of them.

Just as they were about to reach the back door, a group of masked men suddenly rushed out of the darkness and surrounded them.

"Huo Yanshen," the masked man in the lead sneered, "Long time no see."

Huo Yanshen protected Su Wanwan behind him and asked vigilantly: "Who are you? What do you want to do?"

The masked man took off his mask, revealing the face of a middle-aged man. Huo Yanshen and Su Wanwan were both stunned - this man turned out to be Li Qiang, the vice president of Huo's Group.

"Li Qiang? It's you!" Huo Yanshen said angrily, "Are you from that organization?"

Li Qiang sneered: "That's right, I have been waiting for this day for twenty years. Today, I want to complete the task that was not completed twenty years ago."

Mr. Huo suddenly stood up and shouted, "Li Qiang, you traitor! If the Huo family hadn't taken you in, you would have died on the street!"

A complicated look flashed across Li Qiang's eyes, but he quickly regained his coldness: "Mr. Huo, this is where you are wrong. Your Huo family is so high up that you will never understand the suffering of us at the bottom. Today, I will completely destroy the Huo family!"

As he said that, he took out his gun and pointed it at Huo Yanshen.

At the critical moment, Su Wanwan suddenly rushed forward and stood in front of Huo Yanshen: "No! You can't hurt Yanshen!"

Huo Yanshen exclaimed: "Wanwan! Don't do this!"

Li Qiang was stunned for a moment, then sneered: "What a loving couple. In that case, I'll send you both off first!"

Just as Li Qiang was about to pull the trigger, a gunshot suddenly rang out from a distance. Li Qiang's arm was hit and the gun fell to the ground.

"Police! Don't move!" A team of fully armed police suddenly rushed out from all directions and surrounded Li Qiang and others.

It turned out that Mr. Huo had already sensed the danger and secretly called the police.

Seeing the situation reversed, Li Qiang's face turned pale and he tried to escape, but he was quickly subdued by the police.

After the crisis was resolved, Huo Yanshen hugged Su Wanwan tightly, his voice choked with sobs: "Wanwan, you are too impulsive. If anything happens to you, what should I do?"

Su Wanwan leaned in her husband's arms and whispered, "Yan Shen, we are husband and wife, and we share life and death. I can't just watch you in danger."

Huo Yanshen looked deeply into his wife's eyes: "Wanwan, thank you. I am really happy to have you by my side."

At this moment, the two seemed to know each other again. They understood that at the moment of life and death, they chose each other and chose love.

Mr. Huo came over and looked at the two of them with relief: "Yan Shen, Wan Wan, I'm so glad you're all right."

Huo Yanshen turned to his grandfather with a complicated expression: "Grandpa, is there anything else about my father that I don't know?"

Mr. Huo sighed: "Yan Shen, your father is an amazing man. After he discovered the conspiracy of that organization, he has been investigating secretly. But..."

"But what?" Huo Yanshen asked.

Mr. Huo said solemnly, "But he died before he could tell me the whole truth. I have always suspected that their car accident might not be an accident."

Huo Yanshen and Su Wanwan looked at Mr. Huo in shock.

"Grandpa," Huo Yanshen's voice trembled, "You mean... my parents' death might be murder?"

Mr. Huo nodded and said, "I have been secretly investigating this matter. Now that Li Qiang has been arrested, perhaps we can find more clues."

Su Wanwan suddenly thought of something: "Wait, if the truth is really so shocking, then aren't we still in danger now?"

Huo Yanshen held his wife's hand tightly: "Wanwan is right. Grandpa, what should we do?"

Mr. Huo looked serious: "You must leave here immediately. I have arranged a safe house. You can go there to hide for a while and wait for the storm to pass."

Huo Yanshen nodded: "Okay, let's go now. Grandpa, you have to be careful too."

Mr. Huo patted his grandson on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will take care of things here. You must take care of yourselves."

Under the escort of the police, Huo Yanshen and Su Wanwan hurriedly left the old house. Sitting in the car, both of them were silent, thinking about what had just happened.

Su Wanwan gently held her husband's hand: "Yan Shen, no matter what happens, I will be with you. We will face it together."

Huo Yanshen looked at his wife deeply, his eyes full of gratitude and love: "Wanwan, thank you. With you around, I'm not afraid of anything."

The car drove into the night, and Huo Yanshen and Su Wanwan had no idea what was waiting for them ahead.
