Chapter 440: Chapter 440: Huo Xingzhou is Going to Make a Big Move!

Qiao Xi got into the Rolls-Royce, and Huo Xingzhou stood at the door, watching the car grow further away until it disappeared from view.

His face, once gentle and lingering, was now devoid of warmth.

Aunt Qian approached him after a phone call, "Young Master, Mr. Zhou is waiting for you at the company. Here’s the car key you asked for. Shall I find you a reliable driver again?"

"No need."

Huo Xingzhou took the car keys she handed over and strode toward the garage, driving away in a luxury car. His hands rested on the steering wheel, his eyebrows and eyes cold and handsome, his gaze calm.

While waiting for the traffic light, his slender fingers gently tapped the edge as if he was plotting something.

The car drove straight to the Tianyuan Group Building, where a security guard, seeing the somewhat unfamiliar license plate, wanted to remind not to park at will in front of the building. But upon seeing the man who emerged from the car, the guard’s attitude changed instantly.

"President Huo."

"Please help me park the car."

Huo Xingzhou handed the car key to the security guard, who nodded repeatedly.

Then he entered the Tianyuan Building.

"Good morning, President Huo."

"Good morning, President Huo."

Huo Xingzhou nodded in acknowledgment and entered the exclusive elevator.

The female staff members whispered among themselves in the lobby, "Don’t you feel President Huo is particularly aloof today? I didn’t dare greet him with that aura just now."

"Yeah, his eyes were so cold it felt like ’do not approach strangers.’"

"Could it be that he had a fight with the boss lady?"

"That’s possible!"

Unaware of their speculation, Huo Xingzhou made his way to the upper floors.

Zhou Yu was already waiting for him at the elevator, his seriousness somewhat out of character, "Has Qiao Xi already left? Are you okay with letting her venture into the dragon’s den alone?"

"She has to venture out sometime, and I’ll do my best to ensure her safety. Besides, that’s the path she chose, and no one can stop her."

Zhou Yu inwardly sneered, it sounded harsh, yet he didn’t know who, like an old mother hen, had arranged every little detail meticulously.

Even choosing where to live, hiring a nanny, and assigning who to accompany her, everything was well thought out.

"Huo Er, why did you change your mind and not let Xu Yunye go with her? I heard Xu Yunye spent last night racing in Hairpin Bend to vent his anger. Is Sun Weimeng really better than Xu Yunye?"

Huo Xingzhou glanced at Zhou Yu, "Sun Weimeng is more shameless than Xu Yunye."

Shameless people are easier to work with.

Those in the Imperial Capital might not resort to drastic measures at first, only using disgusting tactics.

Sun Weimeng excels at doing unscrupulous things.

Zhou Yu had no retort and finally gave a thumbs up, conceding defeat.

However, with Xu Yunye’s temperament, he won’t necessarily stay put in Haicheng.

And, Can Sun Weimeng really be relied upon? But from Huo Xingzhou’s demeanor, he didn’t seem to expect much; the real dangers were handled by Old Chen!

Huo Xingzhou’s tone was cold as he looked at Zhou Yu, "Have you taken care of the matter I asked you to?"

"I’ve reallocated most of the funds and informed all senior executives of a meeting at 10 a.m. Huo Xingzhou, are you sure you want to play it this big?"

It was a huge gamble!

Outsiders may not be aware of the extent of Tianyuan Group’s cash flow, but as the deputy head, he knew it all too well. To wager so much capital on an uncertain chance was extremely risky!

The man gave him an indifferent glance, his voice full of certainty, "Zhou Yu, have you forgotten what Tianyuan Group was built on?"

Zhou Yu looked at him sharply.

Back in the day, Huo Xingzhou had made a name for himself in the stock market abroad with his own efforts, earning his first pot of gold. He then successively invested in several small companies, each becoming a benchmark in their industry.

At that time, some called his hand the "Hand of God," but now few mention it.

Huo Xingzhou tugged at the corner of his mouth and chuckled lightly, "I have to make my way through the waters of the Imperial Capital. With the Xiang Family and Lu Family forming an alliance, can’t I find an adversary for them? Don’t forget, the Xiang Family, being the weakest of the Four Great Families in the Imperial Capital, has many who wish to pull them down!"

A thought flashed through Zhou Yu’s mind.

The Xiang Family rose to become the fourth among the Four Great Families in Imperial Capital thanks to Lu Bannong. And who is most eager to pull them down?

Of course, it would be the one in fifth place!

The enemy of my enemy is my friend!

"Huo Er, you..."

"Zhou Yu, book Fuchun Garden tonight to welcome the distinguished guest."

...

On the other side.

Clouds, fluffy like tufts of cotton, swirled around her, and the sunlight was just right. Qiao Xi sat in her private jet as it gradually descended, the scenery outside the window becoming ever clearer.

The words ’Imperial Capital Airport’ appeared before her eyes.

Compared to Haicheng’s elegant fashion, the architecture of Imperial Capital was much more majestic and imposing.

She felt a sense of unfamiliarity.

And an inexplicable feeling also surged in her heart.

She had finally arrived in Imperial Capital!

Step by step, she had made it to this day!

After the plane landed, Old Chen went to the parking lot to bring around a Bentley, loading all the luggage before Qiao Xi and... Sun Weimeng got back into the car.

The car headed towards the city center of Imperial Capital.

Qiao Xi spoke softly, "Old Chen, let’s go to Cat Alley first. Grandpa Cheng last disappeared there, I want to take a look."

Only by doing this would she feel more at ease.

Beside her, wearing sunglasses and sipping freshly squeezed juice, Young Master Sun was feeling quite pleased with himself.

He had defeated Xu Yunye for the chance to accompany her to Imperial Capital, proving that in Huo Xingzhou’s heart, he, Sun Weimeng, was still the top dog—unmatched.

He comfortably leaned back against the leather seat, stretching languidly, "I’ve heard Imperial Capital is full of beauties. Wonder how they compare to those in Haicheng."

Any lingering gloom in Qiao Xi’s heart vanished instantly upon hearing his words.

She reminded him, "Young Master Sun, lust may cut the head."

"Fairy, we’ve got Old Chen! He is so strong, he can fight hundreds. I doubt any sword would dare land on my head!" Young Master Sun exclaimed enthusiastically; he was clearly very happy to have arrived in Imperial Capital and felt no sense of danger in this den of dragons and tigers.

Looking at his contented enjoyment, Qiao Xi asked, "Hmm, did my husband say why he’s sending you to Imperial Capital?"

Originally, it was supposed to be Xu Yunye, but there was a sudden change last night.

Angry and aggrieved, Xu Yunye spent the night racing his car to vent his frustration. Where was he lacking compared to Sun Weimeng who seemed like a wastrel, all about wining and dining? In the end, he pitifully made a phone call to Qiao Xi.

Qiao Xi had no solution either.

Besides, if Imperial Capital was dangerous, she privately thought it was better for Xu Yunye not to come.

Actually, it would be safer for Sun Weimeng to stay in Haicheng, but alas, he had eagerly come.

Sun Weimeng took a big slurp of juice and said, "He said a fool has a fool’s fortune and that being around you would be beneficial to you. Plus, he wanted me to take care of some annoying matters and check out the beauties in Imperial Capital."

Check out the beauties in Imperial Capital?

"Did he really put it in exactly those words?"

Qiao Xi truly couldn’t imagine Huo Xingzhou seriously telling Sun Weimeng to look for beauties.

Sun Weimeng nodded, "Yeah. He said the beauties of Imperial Capital are different from those in Haicheng and asked if I was interested. I said yes!"

"And your parents agreed to let you come?"

"Why wouldn’t they? They said that anything Huo Xingzhou asks me to do must be a good thing and that it’s great to gain some exposure to the world."

Qiao Xi truly believed that the Sun Family relied on mere luck to have made it to where they are—such fearless fools.

It truly confirmed the saying, a fool has a fool’s fortune.

The car slowly entered the heart of Imperial Capital.

Young Master Sun looked at the dense crowd outside the window, stupefied, and asked, "What are they doing?"
