Huo Zizhen searched all the way to a secluded seaside. There was a residential area there, and there were some fishing boats and yachts docked there.
Huo Zizhen observed that there were people constantly entering and leaving the residential area. It was obvious that there were all kinds of people here, and it was not easy to find him.
The rich Little Miss smelled the stench here and was very unwilling to come to a place where beggars came and went. However, if she could not complete Yun Shujing’s mission, she would become Huo Jiuxiao’s toy. She could not let anyone control her fate.
“Fourth Little Miss, I’m afraid you’ll have to stay nearby for a few days.”
“You guys can continue searching here. I’m going back to the city. I’ll come back if there’s any news.” Huo Zizhen pinched her nose in disgust and stepped on the mud on her feet again. On the way here just now, she did not even notice that her high heels, which were worth hundreds of thousands, were already stained with vegetable leaves. “I don’t want to stay in this damn place for another second.”
Because it was early in the morning, the number of pedestrians on the beach gradually decreased. Just as Huo Zizhen turned around and was about to leave, she suddenly saw a limping man on the dock. He was holding the reins of a fishing boat with one hand and preparing to leave. Huo Zizhen frowned and signaled the bodyguards to go up and arrest him.
After the bodyguards stepped forward, Huo Zizhen also slowly followed. Then, she saw a familiar yet unfamiliar face turn towards her.
Huo Zizhen knew Huo Xinhong but Huo Xinhong did not know Huo Zizhen.
They had not seen each other for ten years. In addition, Huo Zizhen often underwent cosmetic surgeries, so Huo Xinhong did not suspect anything. In addition, the bodyguards went up to ask for directions, so Huo Xinhong thought that these people were lost.
Just as Huo Xinhong was explaining to her bodyguards, Huo Zizhen went up to Huo Xinhong after confirming his identity. “Second uncle, I’ve been looking for you for a long time,”
Huo Xinhong immediately became alert and let go of the ropes.
He furrowed his brows tightly as if he were confirming the other partys identity. On the other hand, he glanced to the side from the corner of his eye to confirm his escape route.
“I am Huo Zizhen.” Seeing that Huo Xinhong could not recognize her, Huo Zizhen had no choice but to say, “My Mom called you countless times but realized that no one picked up. She was afraid that something happened to you, so she sent me here to confirm your safety.”
“Who are you looking for? Did you get the wrong person?” Huo Xinhong replied
in fluent Korean. It was obvious that he did not want to reveal his identity.
“We’re not selling fish at this hour. Come another day.”
He even used his scale-covered hand to push Huo Zizhen.
Huo Zizhen saw a handprint on her coat and was so disgusted that she almost threw up her dinner. Since this person did not admit, they would directly arrest him and interrogate him. Now that Huo Jiuxiao had returned to the Huo Family, it was not a good idea to let this old thing wander around outside. The safest way was to control him for the rest of his life.
However, just as Huo Zizhen’s bodyguards were about to make a move, a large group of young people walked out, smiling gorgeously and wanting to go out for a drink. One of the young men shouted at Huo Xinhong.
“Uncle, can I borrow your truck?”
“You brats, take me out to get the goods.” As he spoke, he walked towards the group of young men.
Huo Zizhen could not come openly at this time. She wanted to ask the bodyguards to go up and grab Huo Xinhong, but he jumped into the truck and squeezed with a few young people.
Huo Zizhen had no choice but to follow with the bodyguards.
Uncle Zhong’s men also followed closely. When they arrived at a tavern, the young men parked the car and Huo Xinhong followed them in.
Huo Zizhen did not want to squeeze into that kind of foul place, so she waited at the door and asked the bodyguards to watch all the exits of the tavern.
However, she waited for an entire hour, and yet, there was still no sign of Huo Xinhong. Huo Zizhen lost her patience and asked the bodyguards to go in and arrest him, but it was too late. He had already run away.
Uncle Zhong’s men also did not know where Huo Xinhong escaped from.
However, he was certain that there had never been a break between Yun Shujing and Huo Xinhong. This time, it was very likely that Huo Zizhen came here because Yun Shujing wanted to silence Huo Xinhong.
Huo Zizhen’s temper had long been gone after making such a big fuss. Since this lunatic had run away, it was fine. At least it proved that Huo Xinhong was not controlled by Huo Jiuxiao, and she could have an explanation for Yun Shujing.
“Little Miss, what should we do now?”
“You guys continue to stay in Incheon to find him. Find him at all costs. I’ll return to Jinzhou tomorrow morning. The Huo Family’s situation is still unknown, so I can’t stay out for too long.” Huo Zizhen instructed..
