Chapter 522: Chapter 424: Huo Ziheng’s Shares

"Dad knows about this; he has already agreed," Huo Li spoke up.

His face stern, he began to usher people out, "If there’s nothing else, go back. The press conference is about to start."

Huo Li had always understood that his family members could be quite illogical at times, often making outlandish remarks and brainless decisions.

Yet, taking into consideration they were all related by blood, for the most part, Huo Li turned a blind eye, as long as their actions didn’t affect him or the company. His tolerance for his family was relatively high.

The press conference that afternoon was especially important; he did not wish for any issues to arise.

"What? Dad agreed?" Madam Huo’s face showed an expression as though she had eaten something disgusting, and the twin’s faces, Huo Kaiping and Huo Kaian, also looked quite unsightly.

In that instant, in the minds of the three of them, the person with a broken brain was not only Huo Li but also another had joined the ranks – Huo Song.

Huo Kaian didn’t dare to express his thoughts; his sidelong glance fell on Huo Ziheng, sitting on the sofa: "Second brother, say something."

Huo Ziheng lifted his head.

Huo Li also turned to look at Huo Ziheng, whose temperament had significantly changed during this time.

Ever since participating in the reality show "Survive for 30 Days," Huo Ziheng had become a different person.

Initially, the Huo family members hadn’t taken his changes to heart because everyone had watched the live broadcast. They knew about the hardships Huo Ziheng endured on the show, the embarrassing moment when he wet his pants on camera, and that he left the show early because Huo Miao pushed him.

Having been pampered since childhood and never having suffered, Huo Ziheng had an explosive and arrogant character. After taking such a big fall on the show, everyone thought that he couldn’t accept his disgraceful side being exposed to the public, which was why he felt ashamed to leave the house.

As time went by day after day, and Huo Ziheng continued to act like a zombie, aimlessly loitering around the house, the Huo family started to feel that something was wrong and even specifically found a psychologist for Huo Ziheng.

But those psychologists were all sent away by Huo Ziheng in the end.

Huo Ziheng clearly knew that he wasn’t sick.

...He just couldn’t accept how foolish he had been before.

Hearing Huo Kaian’s words, Huo Ziheng spoke calmly to Huo Li, "Big brother, is the share transfer contract ready? Have your assistant prepare an additional share transfer contract. I want to give all my shares to Jiang Ning unconditionally."

Before Huo Li could react, the twins immediately spoke up: "Second brother! You’re crazy too!"

He asked Huo Ziheng to speak, but this wasn’t what he wanted to hear!

And why on earth would the second brother give his shares to Jiang Ning for no reason?

Did he not realize the value of those shares? Just the dividends alone could let an ordinary person work for a lifetime!

If the second brother despised them, he could give them to us instead!

Madam Huo too was vehement, raising her voice, "What’s going on with you, second son? If you don’t want them, give them to me!"

She, as their mother, didn’t own a single share, yet her sons were strangely preoccupied with an outsider, each of them intent on giving their shares away!

The atmosphere in the office abruptly shifted.

An invisible rift inexplicably formed between Madam Huo and the triplets, who had just been united against others.

Among them, only Huo Li’s thoughts were calm.

He inquired, "Are you sure?"

Huo Ziheng nodded, "Give them all to her."

He had reflected on many past events during this period.

It was he who had wronged Jiang Ning.

And the Huo family had wronged Jiang Ning.

"I disagree!" Madam Huo shouted angrily.

"Second brother, think it over carefully! She no longer has any relation to us! Why give her the shares?"

"I’m going to tell Dad; he will never agree to this!" the twins rushed to say.

In the end, it was Huo Li who spoke, "If you really intend to give them, you can discuss it with Jiang Ning later. Today is the day I give shares to Jiang Ning; we’ve already agreed upon it. Yours can wait for another day."

Huo Ziheng, who still held respect for Huo Li’s words, calmly nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Madam Huo and the twins all sighed in relief.

With this buffer time, they were certain they could change Huo Ziheng’s attitude toward this matter!

Jiang Ning, who stood not far outside the office and had listened to the entire conversation, had a fair complexion with an impassive expression.

She wasn’t surprised by Madam Huo, Huo Kaiping, and Huo Kaian’s attitude towards Huo Li giving her the shares.

In Jiang Ning’s plan, her original intent was to use an anonymous text message to lure Madam Huo and the twins, Huo Kaiping and Huo Kaian, to the scene.

Apart from Huo Ziheng earlier, individuals like Madam Huo and the twins, Huo Kaiping and Huo Kaian, were simple-minded and easily impulsive.

Such people were the most convenient to manipulate.
