When the servants learned of this exciting news, they started gossiping about it in their small group chat.
A shrewd maid saw this and immediately sold off this sensational tidbit.
In short, the next day, rumors of Huo Cheng's infidelity spread like wildfire throughout aristocratic circles, just as quickly as they did online.
The young masters of wealthy families were already chatting animatedly this morning, not because they got up early, but because they had been gossiping all night.
"You know, the entertainment industry is really messy. I should probably do some research too. Does my dad have an illegitimate child behind my back?"
"You're right, I should also investigate my father!"
"I wonder who cheated on Lin Lan, that mistress. Well done! I've disliked that woman for a long time. She's two-faced, always playing dirty tricks on my mom! My mom's naive, and she's best friends with her. It's so upsetting!"
"There's so much gossip this year, I can't possibly digest it all! I really want to see Huo Cifeng's expression, hahaha!"
"Don't talk about karma, really don't talk about it, haha."
Huo Cifeng looked at the phone that Assistant Zhang handed him and really wanted to tear these people's mouths apart!
"Don't be angry, now we should think about what to do." Assistant Zhang gently took the tie and helped him tie it.
"How could I not be angry? Of course you don't feel anything. Your dad is devoted to you, and your family is wonderful." Huo Cifeng laughed self-deprecatingly.
Assistant Zhang: "Yes, I have a great family and an excellent resume, so why did I end up with you? Sometimes I don't understand it either..."
Assistant Zhang's words were as cold as a venomous scorpion hovering around Huo Cifeng's neck; if he said anything that displeased him, it could be fatal at any moment.
Huo Cifeng could only reply, "If I don't understand, then I won't bother."
Right now, it seems like one problem after another is brewing.
Ever since Huo Cixiao woke up, he kept telling himself to stay calm and not to compare himself to Huo Cixiao head-on.
But his inaction doesn't mean Huo Cixiao won't take action.
Not long ago, his tech company was back on track, but in the last few days it has suffered a series of setbacks. Fortunately, his Assistant Zhang is not one to back down and has managed to handle them all.
"Don't frown, it doesn't look good." Assistant Zhang smoothed his forehead and helped him put on his dark blue striped suit jacket. "Alright, go to work."
After learning that his affair had been exposed, Huo Cheng's father, decided to stop hiding it and openly brought his current favorite woman home early in the morning.
His son, who was eighteen or nineteen years old, was in college, and he couldn't bear to bring him back.
"What do you mean?" Lin Lan, who hadn't slept all night, looked ten years older. She had waited for Huo Cheng on the sofa all night, only to find that he not only didn't come home, but also brought a vixen home!
" Lin Lan, have someone prepare a room. I'll take Xinxin to see it." Huo Cheng's tone was authoritative and left no room for argument.
The woman behind him looked very timid and obedient, hiding behind him.
Lin Lan's blood boiled at the sight; she wished she could kill the woman immediately to vent her anger.
Huo Cheng wasn't even going to offer an explanation; he actually told her to clean that vixen's room! Great! That's wonderful!
"Alright, you can go ahead." Lin Lan instantly regained her usual dignified expression, a mysterious smile appearing on her face as she smiled.
Huo Cheng didn't see this scene. Instead, he turned around, put his arm around the shoulder of the woman behind him who had her head down, and led her to the back garden.
Half an hour later
Huo Cheng returned with his men and went to the prepared bedroom. Xinxin told Huo Cheng to take a shower first.
After they came out, Huo Cheng couldn't resist rolling around with Xinxin. And that rolling led to disaster; a thumbtack pierced Xinxin's back, and blood dripped onto the sheets...
Huo Cheng was heartbroken when he saw this, and immediately sent someone to fetch Lin Lan.
Lin Lan looked down and saw thumbtacks... She hadn't put any thumbtacks in the blanket at all; she had only put something that would cause chronic allergies and disfigurement under the blanket... Only by lifting the blanket and staying there for a while could one be affected!
The thumbtack was used by this woman to frame her!
Enraged by this, Huo Cheng questioned the maids about who had done it. They stammered, "We didn't do it. Madam was in this room too!"
Lin Lan was unaware that she had been discovered, nor did she understand why her once loyal servant had betrayed her. "It wasn't me! I wouldn't use such despicable means!" she vehemently denied.
Xinxin had finished treating her wounds and came out in a change of pajamas. She was wearing a luxury brand that Lin Lan had bought for her but had been reluctant to wear!
"Why are you wearing my clothes! You slut! You're asking for it!" Lin Lan's sassiness finally erupted at this moment.
Xinxin was a woman of few words to begin with, and like a frightened fawn, she trembled and hid behind Huo Cheng.
Looking at the aggressive Lin Lan, and then at his beloved darling who dared not utter a sound despite being wronged, Huo Cheng immediately roared, "Go! Call the police! Security! Drag this madwoman Lin Lan out of here!"
"Hahaha... Tongtong, the wicked will be punished by the wicked." Luo Beishi closed his eyes, and the system broadcast the actual battle situation to him in his brain. It was a pity that there were no cameras in that room, otherwise he could have watched the whole process.
System: "The host is right!"
Luo Beishi: " Xinxin, this woman, is probably not even 40 years old yet, right? She followed Huo Cheng right after graduating from high school, how could no one know about that?"
Huo Cifeng was merely pretending not to know, using it as a delaying tactic. Not only that, Huo Cifeng was even covering for Huo Cheng. Truly a loving father and filial son, hahaha...
System: "Host, should we add fuel to the fire? There's still one mistress who hasn't made an appearance yet."
Luo Beishi: "No rush. Xinxin is doing a good job. Don't rush to suppress her. Let's wait until she infuriates Lin Lan before we talk about it."
He paused, then continued, "I think Luo Bai's acting skills aren't up to par yet. She should learn more from Xinxin. Those pitiful eyes and the expression of wanting to cry but not daring to—she's practically the pinnacle of acting in the white tea world, hahaha..."
"Speaking of which, where is Huo Cixiao?" Luo Beishi touched the blanket beside him; no one was there. A strange sense of loneliness crept into his heart. "Where is he?"
System: "Host, your husband went to the gym early this morning! He's very disciplined!"
Luo Beishi slowly got up. "Oh, but didn't he already work out last night? Can his body handle it? He probably can't."
System: "The main villain's stats are top-notch; it wouldn't be surprising if he spent all day at the gym. His physical condition is superb! I suspect the main villain is working out specifically for you!"
Luo Beishi sighed helplessly, "No wonder he remained muscular even after being in a vegetative state for a year. His self-discipline is truly enviable. Muscles are something us shut-ins can never have!"
System: "Host, the big villain is your husband, so what's his is yours. In other words, you've got abs now!"
Luo Beishi clapped his hands and cheered, " Tongtong, you could switch careers and become a matchmaker!"
