Chapter 1109: Chapter 1078: Family Meeting

This matter had already exceeded He Tiantian’s expectations; she had to seek external help.

"Cui Ying, you go and report this to the police," He Tiantian said. "I’ll make a call to Yanjing from the hospital. Coach Zhu, you go and buy some food; we’ll just have something simple for lunch."

"Okay," Zhu Zhitao nodded. "You all be careful and don’t go anywhere else in the hospital. Yuanyuan, keep an eye on Xiao Jian and Tiantian."

"Mm, I understand, Coach Zhu," Wei Yuanyuan said, surprised it really involved the Huo Family.

Things in this world really are too coincidental.

He Tiantian found a payphone in the hospital.

At that time, Huo Yingjie was at work, so He Tiantian called Huo Yingjie’s office phone.

Huo Yingjie happened to be in his office. The ordinary white phone on his desk rang, and he picked it up saying, "Hello, who is this?"

Upon hearing Huo Yingjie’s voice, He Tiantian quickly said, "It’s me, Tiantian. I’m calling you from Guangzhou. Yingqi’s child came looking for me, saying her mother had been locked up, so I came here and indeed it’s Yingqi. She’s weak and undergoing emergency treatment. This matter involves your uncle and aunt, and I don’t know how to speak to them. You should talk to them."

As a niece by marriage, matters concerning the Huo Family succession should be handled by the Huo Family themselves; all she needed to do was fulfill her own responsibilities.

"Ah?" Huo Yingjie was taken aback. "Are you sure that’s Huo Yingqi?"

"Yes, I’m certain. I can recognize her face, and besides, we have a family portrait with all of us, so you’d better hurry and inform your uncle and aunt and ask them to send someone over. Also, Yingqi has been abused by her in-laws, and now we don’t know whether she’s alive or dead. Do you have any friends in Guang? If so, give them a heads-up as I’m afraid the Xu Family might cause trouble and we might not be able to handle it," He Tiantian replied, somewhat anxiously.

"Mm, I understand," Huo Yingjie said. "I will call my uncle right now to have him return to the Huo Family Old Mansion. As for Yingqi, please take care of her."

"I will," He Tiantian promised, hoping that whatever Yingqi had suffered, she would wake up and have a fresh start.

She worried that the local police might be biased and that the four of them would not be able to handle it.

"Tiantian, be careful. I’ll send someone over right away," Huo Yingjie said softly. He Tiantian was there to help Huo Yingqi at the first opportunity, hoping that Yingqi would not betray Tiantian’s good intentions.

"Mm, I’ve noted that down," He Tiantian responded; she was not a reckless person, and being in a hospital, she should be safe.

Recalling the Xiyu Flower hairpin he had given to He Tiantian, Huo Yingjie said, "If the situation becomes urgent, you can use that hairpin to protect yourself."

"Ah?" He Tiantian was startled, then remembered the hairpin she carried in her bag, which also served as a weapon. "Mm, I remember, I’ve noted that down."

After hanging up, Huo Yingjie immediately called Tang Qian’s elder brother in Guang City, who was affiliated with the Huo Family, asking him to protect He Tiantian and her group.

Tang Ji, currently a staff member in Guang City, deemed it a critical moment. Also, Tang Ji often consulted Zhekun about economic development and always benefited greatly. Given the relationship between their families, he took the matter very seriously.

After calling Tang Ji, Huo Yingjie was no longer worried about He Tiantian’s safety.

He then called Huo Zheqian to inform him about Huo Yingqi and asked him to return to the Huo Family Old Mansion.

Huo Zheqian felt a bitter sweetness; he missed his daughter too, but the events of those years were vivid in his memory, and since Old Master Huo had issued the order, no one dared to bring it up.

It was perhaps a good thing that Yingjie brought it up; there might be a chance for a change.

At the same time, Huo Zheqian also worried about Yingqi’s situation, becoming even more anxious.

Huo Zheqian hurried home.

Song Chunli was at someone else’s house playing cards when she heard her housekeeper calling her, so she said, "I have something to attend to today, I won’t play anymore, we’ll continue tomorrow."

"Chunli, you can’t do this," another woman said. "You always win money, and now you’re just going to leave? That’s not fair."

"You can’t let you go that easily."

Song Chunli gathered the change on the table and said cheerfully, "I’ll treat everyone to coffee tomorrow. The nanny came looking for me, which definitely means my mother-in-law needs something. I can’t delay and make her unhappy."

"Okay then." The others agreed, some of them also had mothers-in-law and knew their fierceness; indeed, they could not afford delays.

Song Chunli, carrying her small bag, left in a cheerful mood having won quite a bit today.

"Ah, Chunli’s life is really comfortable," said one woman, "There aren’t so many messy things at home, and she also has plenty of money. Both her husband and son are ambitious, and her daughter-in-law doesn’t cause any trouble."

"Hehe, you might as well stop envying her," a woman sitting opposite Song Chunli shook her head and scoffed, "We might not look as good as her, but at least our children are with us. Her foolish daughter, who knows where she is now!"

Upon hearing this, the other two nodded in agreement, suddenly feeling much more comfortable in their hearts.

Women are like this; they always compare everything. As long as they feel they are better than others, they feel comfortable; if they think others are better, they feel uncomfortable.

Song Chunli hummed a little tune as she returned home, somewhat surprised.

"Aren’t you supposed to be at work? Coming home at this time?" Song Chunli asked curiously, it was unexpected.

Huo Zheqian shook his head, looking somewhat sad, and said, "Sit down, there’s trouble at home."

The expression on her husband’s face gave Song Chunli a bad feeling. Could it be that Yingjun was in trouble?

At this thought, Song Chunli’s heart skipped a beat as she nervously looked at the others.

"Yingjie, you tell us," Old Master Huo said, "What exactly happened?"

Huo Yingjie pondered for a moment and then said, "Tiantian in Guang City ran into Yingqi’s child, Xu Jian..."

Huo Yingjie recounted the encounter between the two and also spoke about Huo Yingqi’s current situation.

Upon hearing that Huo Yingqi was in critical condition, Song Chunli’s whole body trembled, and she almost couldn’t sit still, starting to wobble.

Seeing this, Huo Zheqian reached out his hand to support Song Chunli, saying, "Don’t panic."

Song Chunli calmed down slightly, turned to Old Master Huo and Old Madam Huo, and choked up, "Dad, Mom, she’s a piece of flesh that fell from my body..."

"Ah, she’s also my granddaughter whom I’ve dearly loved since she was a child," Old Madam Huo said. She too was heartbroken, but her heart had been deeply hurt by Yingqi.

Anxious, Song Chunli said, "Dad, Mom, if Yingqi were doing well, living like an ordinary person, I wouldn’t go looking for her. But now that she’s like this, I beg you, let her come back, please."

As Song Chunli finished speaking, she was about to kneel.
