Madam Has An Amazing Life After Her Divorce Chapter 144 – Meeting Between Grandparents and Grandson

After Madam Huo entered the meeting room,she could not wait to look for Li Xiaoran in the crowd. When she saw Li Xiaoran, who was sitting on the CEO’s chair, she was slightly stunned.

Although the old man praised his precious grandson to the skies, the old lady had finally seen Li Xiaoran’s outstanding demeanor with her own eyes. Only then did she know that the old man’s praise was really too limited.

Li Xiaoran had inherited her daughter’s extraordinary beauty and cold and ascetic temperament. It was said that Li Xiaoran was also a once-in-a-lifetime genius. She had even inherited Xinping’s genes.

At this moment, the Old Madam was a little worried that Li Xiaoran had also inherited her daughter’s extraordinary low EQ.

Actually, her worries were not unreasonable.

Mr. Huo helped Madam to the chairman’s seat while he humbly sat on the simple swivel chair beside her.

The old madam reappeared and immediately threw out her iron fist. “I heard that you have a lot of complaints about the Huo Corporation using Li Xiaoran as the CEO. I’m here today for this.”

The shareholders immediately revealed relieved expressions. They believed that Madam Huo would not be as muddle-headed as the chairman. Madam Huo would definitely be able to see through Li Xiaoran’s mistake.

Li Xiaoran frowned slightly. He was thinking about how to persuade the old lady to accept him…

Unexpectedly, Madam Huo spoke.

“Aren’t you just worried that Li Xiaoran is a spy sent by Li Kang to the Huo family? Today, I’ll make it clear. Li Xiaoran is a child adopted by my Ruping when she was overseas. He and Huo Zhou are brothers. In the future, you have to treat Xiaoran the way you treat Huo Zhou.”

Everyone looked at each other.

Madam Huo thought so highly of an adopted son who was not related by blood. There was something fishy about this. After all, wealthy families were very melodramatic.

Everyone understood a little in their hearts that Li Xiaoran was probably the bloodline of the Huo family. It was just that for some reason, they could not expose his identity for the time being.

Madam Huo was indeed an iron lady in the business world. With a few words, she made everyone understand that Li Xiaoran was the bloodline of the Huo family. At the same time, she could not let them go out and gossip. After all, the Huo family had always pursued people who slandered their reputation.

The shareholders were appeased.

Li Xiaoran read out his next work plan. His voice was magnetic, comparable to a popular streamer. “If Li Kang Corporation wants to encircle and annihilate our Huo Corporation’s pharmaceutical group, they can only do so by invading the market, reducing our supply of medicinal herbs, and squeezing out vaccines. But I’ve also taken countermeasures against Li Kang.”

Then, Li Xiaoran gave his secretary a look. The secretary carried a stack of documents in and distributed each document to everyone.

The shareholders read Li Xiaoran’s anti-production measures and felt a chill down their spines.

They were all veterans in the business world, but Li Xiaoran’s scheming nature simply refreshed their worldview.

Someone even took out a tissue and hurriedly wiped his sweat, secretly glad that the Huo family had poached Li Xiaoran over. Otherwise, with Li Xiaoran’s intelligence, the one who would be swallowed up would probably not be the Li family but the Huo family.

After the meeting, a storm rose again.

It was unknown who leaked the contents of the meeting to Huo Ruping, but she was very angry when she found out that her mother had found her a godson behind her back.

Huo Ruping arrived at the company angrily and went straight to the chairman and the old madam. She questioned her mother, “Mom, are you old and muddle-headed? How can you make something out of nothing and get me a godson? You’re damaging your daughter’s reputation. Is there a mother like you?”

Huo Ruping was actually a sensible person, but she had not had the time to discuss this with her daughter. Huo Ruping did not know what her mother was up to. She valued her reputation the most, so it was very normal for Huo Ruping to be angry.

The old lady looked at her daughter guiltily and stood up. “Ruping, I’m sorry. This happened too suddenly, so Mom took the initiative…”

Ever since Huo Xinping ran away from home, the old lady had changed from a strict mother to a mother who was kind to her child and even broke her principles.

Mr. Huo quickly tried to smooth things over for his wife. “Ruping, don’t be angry with Mom. You have to listen to Mom’s explanation.”

Huo Ruping muttered unhappily, “Dad, I have my own son. What will others think if you force a son on me?”

Mr. Huo explained, “Ruping, this child is not an outsider. He’s a child left behind by your sister, Xinping.”

Huo Ruping was dumbfounded.

After a while, she complained to the old man with tears in her eyes, “Since it’s Xinping’s child, it’s our family’s bloodline. Why do you say it’s an adopted child? This is unfair to the child.”

The old man sighed. “The child doesn’t want to acknowledge us for the time being. I don’t dare to push him too hard. You know, it was because of us that your sister ran away from home and embarked on a path of no return.” Old Mr. Huo’s weathered face was covered in disappointment.

Huo Ruping looked at her father’s white hair and suddenly remembered that after her sister left home that year, her father and mother ran all over the streets. Her father’s hair turned white overnight, and her mother was in so much pain that she committed suicide.

Huo Ruping’s eyes were wet. She choked and said, “Then say that he’s my biological son. I want this son.”

Madam Huo heaved a sigh of relief.

Ru Ping didn’t blame her. She felt relieved.

Huo Ruping was filled with curiosity about this nephew she had never met. She pestered her parents to ask about her nephew.

“Back then, my sister was outstanding in everything. She was good-looking, good at studying, and had many friends. She was as bright as a pearl. I think her son must be good too.”

“Hmph.” Old Mr. Huo snorted mischievously, clearly not satisfied with his daughter’s words.

“He has surpassed his mother.”

Huo Ruping was shocked. “Sister is the absolute heir of the world. I wonder how heaven-defying that child is?”

Madam Huo said, “In my opinion, that child’s merits have indeed surpassed your sister’s, but he seems to have a number of shortcomings.”

Hearing this, the family’s faces darkened.

Huo Xinping’s weakness was that she was stubborn, rebellious, and had a low EQ. She did not pursue fame and fortune. Her shortcomings were not suitable for the survival in a wealthy family.

After a long time, Ru Ping said, “I will protect him.”

Only then did she remember that she had not asked her nephew’s name. “By the way, what’s his name?”

“Li Xiaoran.”

Huo Ruping widened her eyes in shock.

She knew the name well.

Back then, Huo Zhou fell down the stairs because he was sleepwalking and almost died on the spot. It was Li Xiaoran, who had just transferred to medical school, who saved Huo Zhou.

Huo Ruping had always wanted to thank Li Xiaoran personally. However, Li Xiaoran had been staying overseas. Huo Ruping had gone overseas several times to thank him but had never seen him.

Now he was back.

Huo Ruping smiled knowingly. “So you’re our child. No wonder you’re as close as brothers.”
