“Them?” Su Yayan’s eyes were red as she looked at Huo Chenhuan.

Huo Chenhuan faced her pleading gaze, but in the end, he did not have the heart to hide it from her.

“It’s Huo Qihan and those people.”

“Huo Qihan and those people?” Su Yayan did not expect to get such an answer. She was stunned for a while before she asked tentatively, “Did Huo Qihan and those people want to hurt you, or did they hurt you together?”

This question seemed to be similar, but when it came down to it, the difference was like heaven and earth.

Was it that they had the same intentions, or was it a conspiracy?

If it was the former, it would be fine, but if it was the latter…

When she thought of the true cause of death of Huo Chenhuan’s parents, Su Yayan could not help but feel a chill down her spine.

“It was them, wasn’t it? Huo Qihan has been in contact with them for a long time, your parents…”

“It’s caused by them.”

Su Yayan finally could not hold back her tears. She felt sorry for Huo Chenhuan, but she was even angrier at Huo Qihan’s madness. He was willing to assassinate his family for money and power.

“How could he do this? Those are your parents and his parents. How could he be so heartless to kill them? He killed his father, killed his mother, and attempted to murder his own brother. Isn’t he afraid of retribution?”

“That’s not right.”

“What?”

“Those are my parents, not his. I’m not his biological brother either.”

Su Yayan’s eyes widened and she looked at Huo Chenhuan in disbelief. “You mean Huo Qihan isn’t…”

“He’s just my parents’ adopted son.”

“Adopted son? How is that possible? How come I’ve never heard of this?”

“Not many people know about this. My parents were in a free relationship. They were overseas for a long time before they returned to the country to develop and founded the Huo Corporation because of some matters.”

Huo Chenhuan paused, he sighed. “My mother loves children. They’ve been married for two to three years and have never used contraception. However, they just couldn’t conceive. My parents then realized that something was wrong and went for a detailed check-up. The conclusion was that my grandmother had an accident when she was pregnant with my mother, causing her to give birth prematurely. Although she recovered later on, it might be a little difficult for her to have a child.”

“So, they adopted a child?”

“Yes.” Huo Chenhuan’s voice was a little muffled, “Huo Qihan was already five or six years old when he was adopted by my parents. He was already aware. My parents were worried that his identity would be sensitive. Outsiders said that it would affect the child’s mood and future growth, so they ordered the family not to spread the news. They only told the public that Huo Qihan was their biological son and that they had been raising him abroad before he was brought back when he grew up.”

At that time, the Huo Corporation had just started and did not really have a great reputation. The public’s attention to their family was also limited, so no one doubted it.

However, Huo Qihan himself knew about it, and so did the few old uncles who had followed Huo Chenhuan.

After Huo Chenhuan’s parents passed away, the descendants of the few old uncles who had followed Huo Chenhuan, such as Zuo Yanbai, Gu Shaoyang, and others, gradually learned about it.

That was why they were both disgusted and angry at Huo Qihan’s family.

Firstly, they had grown up with Huo Chenhuan, so they had more feelings for him than Huo Qihan’s family.

Secondly, they felt that Huo Qihan did not have the Huo family’s blood in him, and he was not as capable as Huo Chenhuan. However, he managed to obtain the Huo family with the help of the old man’s will without any effort. No matter how they looked at it, it felt like he had taken over the family’s territory, they felt like he had stolen something from Huo Chenhuan.
