Chapter 99 – The Painting Named “Hypocrisy”

After pulling Huo You up from the ground, He Yu hugged her tightly and whispered into her ear as if he was reciting a wonderful love poem.
Huo You no longer had any expectations for He Yu. She pushed him away and said indifferently, “It’s too late now. Take me home.”
He Yu placed his hand behind his back and bent over slightly, bowing like a knight. “I’m willing to be of service to you.”
On the way back, Huo You became more and more awake. She recalled everything that had happened tonight and felt extremely frustrated.
Why had she exposed her biggest trump card to He Yu? Although she hadn’t completely exposed that she had been reborn, letting He Yu know that she understood the business plans of the few companies in the future, it had exceeded Huo You’s plans.
However, Huo You could only console herself that it was also considered an unexpected gain for her to achieve true cooperation with He Yu because she could predict the future.
“When are you planning to make a move on the Si Family?” Huo You glanced at He Yu. “As far as I know, Si Huan has been planning to develop a new energy project. He will be strongly opposed by the Si Family, but once he resists everyone’s opinions, he will take the ride on the flow of the government policy over the next few years to soar into the sky, becoming the greatest new energy manufacturer in the country.”
He Yu seemed to be very satisfied with Huo You’s words. He glanced at Huo You in admiration and smiled. “I wanted to take things slow previously because I didn’t want Si Huan to realize that we were the ones attacking him. But since you think this is a good opportunity, I won’t waste it.”
“As long as we can stop Si Huan’s investment plans and enter the new energy industry before him, we will be able to get more dividend policy and future market share than him. I think this will only be beneficial and not harmful for you.”
He Yu gave Huo You an ambiguous look. “Silly girl, it’s ‘for us’. You’re definitely there in my future plans.”
As he said this, he even took one of Huo You’s hands, brought it to his lips, and planted a soft kiss on it, looking extremely passionate.
Huo You wasn’t touched at all. She only watched He Yu’s actions coldly, her heart filled with mockery.
After sending Huo You back to the Huo Family, He Yu went to meet Mr. and Mrs. Huo, acting politely in front of them.
When Mr. and Mrs. Huo faced He Yu, they looked like amiable elders.
“Huo You has troubled you. She’s a little stubborn and headstrong. I hope you can be more tolerant of her…”
He Yu put on an affectionate expression and said, “Auntie, you’re too kind. Huo You is an intelligent and kind girl. We get along very well. I really hope she can grow up quickly. I can’t wait to make her my wife.”
Mr. and Mrs. Huo’s smiles became even more amiable.
Mr. Huo also said, “As a father, my greatest wish in this life is to be able to leave my daughter in the hands of a young and handsome talent like you.”
The three of them sat together and exchanged some pleasantries. He Yu brought up that he was going to take his leave. Before he left, he seemed to have thought of something.
He Yu put on a sincere expression and said, “It’ll be the Si Corporation’s anniversary celebration in a few days. I’ve already received an invitation. I’d like to invite Miss Huo You to attend the event with me. I hope Uncle and Auntie can allow this.”
Mrs. Huo said smilingly, “You are really polite. You’re bringing Youyou to a banquet, not somewhere else. Why would we possibly stop you?”
Mr. Huo cast a reproachful look at Mrs. Huo and said with a smile, “This is what you should do when you’re in a serious relationship. This means that He Yu is showing enough respect for our Youyou. As her mother, you should be happy.”
People who did not know the truth would probably think that these people were a pair of parents who doted on their daughter and a good man who respected and loved his partner.
However, Huo Feng, who was standing not far away, looked at this harmonious scene and felt that this scene was filled with a cold color palette.
Every single one of their actions and words were portraying the word ‘hypocritical’. However, in this painting, they seemed to be completely indifferent to each other’s hypocrisy and were still trying their best to play their respective roles, looking extremely interesting…
A distorted smile slowly appeared on Huo Feng’s face. He muttered, “Sister, if you see this famous painting of the century named ‘Hypocrisy’, you’ll probably be as amused as I am, right?”
“Every day, I’m like an outsider, watching them immersed in their respective roles. Gradually, I seem to be becoming like one of them…”
“That won’t do. Sister, I don’t want to become as scary as them. So, no matter what, I have to bring you back. I want you to stay with me forever.. Only by being by your side will I not lose myself…”
