Chapter 1481: Leave Everything To Me
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Huo Zhong, stop spouting nonsense. Hasnt Huo Ye been living with you and your mother all these years? Why? Are you going to distance yourself from your duties after enjoying your fathers love and taking over the family business?
Pfft, Lu Weijian, youre Huo Yes legitimate son. Your mother is Huo Yes first wife! Everyone in the city knows that your mother and Huo Ye are married. Youre the legitimate young master of the Huo family. No one can find fault with you if youre handed the family business!
Old Master Huo finally caught his breath. Do you think Im dead?!
Only then did Lu Weijian and Huo Zhong stop bickering. However, their eyes kept intersecting in midair, creating countless sparks.
Lu Weijian, Huo Zhong, both of you are Huo Yes sons, and Huo Ye is my only son. Now that so many things have happened to the Huo family, the collateral branches are all watching the Huo family. If you dont take this responsibility, the Huo family will be finished!
Lu Weijian and Huo Zhong muttered in unison, Then why dont you let your son come back?
Old Master Huo choked and was furious again. Huo Ye was unreliable. It was not his first time finding out about it either.
In the past, he thought that young people were playful and would eventually restrain themselves as they grew older.
Now, he knew that some people couldnt change their nature.
Huo Ye was already old, but he was still a playboy. There were many women for him to play with outside, and he lived in the wild. He was even more open than some young people.
If the old master had known it would be like this back then He wouldnt have sided with his son when Huo Ye and Lu Yaolan had just gotten married. In the end, their good family ended up in this state.
However, it was too late for regrets now.
Butler, show them the doc.u.ment, Old Master Huo said.
The butler produced a chart diagnosis and handed it to the men.
It clearly stated that Old Master Huos body could not last much longer. A few days ago, he was critically ill in the hospital. Old Master Huo knew that he did not have much time left and was unwilling to spend any more time in the hospital, so he got discharged early and chose to stay at home to recuperate.
Seeing this, the atmosphere between Lu Weijians and Huo Zhongs att.i.tudes became better.
Im about to die. Cant any of you listen to my advice? Old Master Huo asked.
Lu Weijian scratched his head. Its not that I dont want to listen to your advice, but I have a lot of things to do in the Lu family. You can get Huo Zhong to take over the business. Besides, if my grandfather breaks my legs, will you compensate me?
Old Master Huo recalled how he and Old Master Lu almost fought because of their children. He couldnt help but feel sad.
Huo Zhong also said, In any case, I only like playing games and practicing martial arts. Im not good at managing a business. If you want the Harris family to meet their deaths sooner and collapse earlier, leave everything to me. In any case, with my hand speed, I can do anything quickly. Im afraid no one can compare to me when it comes to exhausting the family business.

Old Master Huo had looked into his two grandsons before. Neither of them was calm. In comparison, Lu Weijian had been with Lu Heting for a long time and had been influenced by him, so he was more suitable to take over the family business.
Huo Zhong was indeed not that suitable.
Huo Zhong, youll have something to inherit from the Huo family, but I still want Lu Weijian to be the one managing the entire Huo family, said Old Master Huo.
Lu Weijian was about to explode again. Dont look for me. Im not from the Huo family!
Weijian! Lu Heting stopped him from continuing.
Old Master Huo said, The Huo family has countless industries and hundreds of thousands of staff members. Now, those branch families who are fighting for power will do anything to achieve their goals. These industries and hundreds of thousands of workers will probably be destroyed in a day. Weijian, these people and industries need you. Huo Zhong cant take on such a big responsibility. Among the younger generation, I can only count on you and Huo Zhong.
He spoke earnestly and eagerly.
Lu Weijian couldnt accept it. He could only look at Lu Heting and Su Bei, hoping that they would help him out.
He kept blinking, trying to get them to say something.
Su Bei coughed lightly and said, Heting, my fourth sister has always liked people who are responsible and career-minded. Why dont you introduce me to someone in a few days?

Thats right. I have a list of names for her to choose from, Lu Heting replied seriously.
Lu Weijians eyes lit up. Grandpa, I agree. Leave the Huo family and our businesses to me! Ill definitely be a good leader! Even if I cant do a good job, I can ask my brother for help!
Huo Zhong felt as if he had been pardoned. He took two steps back with a look of relief.
Old Master Huos face lit up. Butler, bring the doc.u.ments. Let them both sign them.
Lu Weijian picked up a pen without reading the contents and signed his name.
Huo Zhong said reluctantly, Didnt you say that theres nothing for me to do? Why do you still want me to sign?
He took a few steps back and refused to sign. Su Bei, be honest with me. Is there anything for me to do here? I wont agree! I wont sign!
Su Bei smiled and said, I was planning to give you a good beating after you signed it.
Really? Youre going to spar with me? Although Im reluctant to sign this doc.u.ment
If Grandpa wants you to sign it, just sign it. Dont talk so much nonsense. Lu Weijian pressed his hand down and forced him to sign his name.
The two of them bickered for a while before finally signing their names.
Good, good. Im relieved. Butler, bring them to complete the handover process.
The butler walked out with Lu Weijian and Huo Zhong. The two of them kicked each other as they walked.
Old Master Huo looked at Lu Heting and Su Bei and said tiredly, Im sorry for making a fool of myself. As a father, I didnt discipline my son well, which led to my two grandchildren having no feelings for me. Thank you for coming today, especially Su Bei If it werent for you, Weijian wouldnt have agreed to accept my family business. The Huo family is indebted to you.
Grandpa Huo, I didnt do anything. Rest well. They still need your guidance.
Old Master Huo smiled. Youve already helped me a lot. Now, Ill be able to face the Huo familys ancestors.
Lu Heting said, Grandpa Huo, how did you know that Su Beis decision could affect them?
Old Master Huo looked at Su Bei seriously. I didnt, but I saw Su Bei in the hospital that day and knew that her decision could affect you. I could also tell that you would focus on Su Bei, so I decided to give it a try. Im sorry, Heting. Apart from you, I really couldnt think of anyone else who could affect Lu Weijian and Huo Zhong. Thats why I took the liberty to invite you here today
