“Yes!” She hugged her dad’s neck excitedly, “But I still want to believe you! Daddy! You are so nice! Don’t worry, I will miss you!”

“……”

——

The anonymous accusation that Huo Suicheng deliberately destroyed an old tomb had finally come to an end.

First, the whistleblower said that he was threatened and made up stories to frame Huo Suicheng. Following that, an anonymous informant testified as witness, said that an evidence was given to him by someone else and that he didn’t check to see if it was real.

The police soon learnt from the two witnesses that a woman named “Su Yuanqing” was behind all of this, thus they apprehended and questioned Su Yuanqing in the police station.

Su Yuanqing, on the other hand, denied it, saying that Qian Dachuan deceived her but she did not want to report it personally, so she gave the information to Ji Shuyang, further stating that the evidence of destroying the ancient tomb was Qian Dachuan’s work.

Needless to say, Su Yuanqing made herself a subsequent party in this case, most likely because she had a vague impression that Huo Suicheng was not an easy person to deal with. So, when she collaborated with Qian Dachuan, she left little information and proof.

Eventually, Qian Dachuan was prosecuted on the case entirely on his own.

When Xiao Wu informed Huo Suicheng of the results, he was speaking with Jiang Huai, who contacted Huo Suicheng on his own initiative.

No matter what, Wen Yang was a talent he once appreciated, and now that he had been entrusted with the heavy responsibility, he needed to inform Huo Suicheng of his decision as well.

The content of the call was very simple. Huo Suicheng didn’t talk too much nonsense with him.

First, Su Yuanqing and Wen Yang were banned from the business industry.

Second, the acquisition of the Jiang family’s company was suspended.

The first was the principal and the second was the interest.

Jiang Huai thought for a minute on the phone and agreed.

He didn’t want to provoke Huo Suicheng, the huge Buddha, or offend Huo Suicheng for Wen Yang.

He was a businessman and knew best to weigh the pros and cons.

Hanging up the phone, Xiao Wu stood in front of his desk and laughed, “Block? That’s all?”

Although they were banned from the business industry, they had offended Huo Suicheng and Jiang Huai. They will not have a good road in the future.

“Brother Cheng, if it was two or three years ago, Su Yuanqing and Wen Yang wouldn’t have dared to frame you,” Xiao Wu pretended to be ruthless, “you would have…”

Huo Suicheng’s eyelids lifted, “How did it go?”

Xiao Wu’s sullen face froze, and he smiled, “A real man doesn’t boast about his past achievements, not to mention this thing. Brother Cheng, the police have just called to inform you that everything is fine, but the case will take some time and you may be called to provide a statement in the process.”

“Okay.”

Huo Suicheng looked at the time and got up.

“Brother Cheng, it’s only three o’clock, are you going to skip work?”

“Today is the last day of Xiaoxiao’s kindergarten, I’m going to pick her up.” He looked back at Xiao Wu and said, “Go drive.”

“Right away!”

Winter came, and thus the temperature dropped.

Under the cold weather, people coming and going on the street wrapped their coats firmly around them.

A Bentley car was parked in front of the kindergarten on the street. When he stepped out of the car, the chilly wind and biting coldness struck his face.

Huo Suicheng frowned slightly.

It was unsurprising that Xiaoxiao wished to spend the winter in the south. Even adults, let alone children, could hardly handle such frigid temperatures.

When Huo Suicheng stepped into the kindergarten, Huo Xiao Xiao was saying goodbye to her classmates.

Zhouzhou hugged Huo Xiao Xiao with a snotty nose and a tear spilling from his eyes, acting as if parting with her was like a parting of life and death.

“Huhuh, Xiaoxiao, I will not be able to see you in the future. You must remember to call me…”

“Okay, I’ll call you.”

“Xiaoxiao, It’s the holidays . I won’t see you for a long time, will you still remember me?”

“…Yes, I will, don’t cry.”

On the other hand, Yi Qian and others looked at Zhouzhou with contempt.

“Lu Xingchen, can you stop crying? You are a man, aren’t you ashamed?”

Zhouzhou rushed to Lu Jingyi and howled, “It’s none of your business!”

Lu Jingyi rolled his eyes and said, “Hmph! It’s none of my business. I just see you cry like a little girl… it’s not like you won’t be able to see her next semester. ”

“Exactly that.”

“Don’t worry about him, Xiaoxiao, he just likes to cry, you let him cry enough, and he won’t cry after that. ”

Zhouzhou was laughed at by Lu Jingyi and a few people, so he gradually stopped crying after sniffing a little.

“Xiaoxiao, can I invite you to come to my house during the winter vacation?”

“Winter vacation?”

Huo Xiaoxiao still remembered that her dad promised her that he would take her to the south to avoid the cold during winter vacation, “I don’t know, my dad said he would take me out to play, and I don’t know when I will come back.”

“Going out to play?” Yi Qian leaned over after hearing this, “Where are you going to play this vacation?”

“Not decided yet.”

Yi Qian pursed his lips and said, “Then if your dad decides where to play, can you tell me?”

“Okay.”

Zhouzhou shouted from the side, “And me!”

“Okay. I’ll call you if I come back then, and my birthday is coming up, so I’ll invite you to my birthday then.”

“Birthday? wlWhen?”

“Xiaoxiao, when is your birthday?”

“I’ll call you guys when the time comes.”

“Xiaoxiao, what do you want for your birthday? I’ll buy it for you.”

“What?” Huo Xiaoxiao frowned, “You can give me whatever you want.”

""

A group of people surrounded Huo Xiaoxiao chatting loudly, so when the teacher called Huo Xiaoxiao twice at the door, Huo Xiaoxiao didn’t hear it.

“Huo Xiaoxiao!”

Huo Xiao Xiao  recognized Huo Suicheng’s voice and turned her head towards the classroom entrance. “Dad!”

She grabbed her schoolbag, said goodbye to Yi Qian perfunctorily, and plunged into Huo Suicheng’s arms.

“Dad, why did you come so early today?”

“Then next time daddy should come late?

“……”

Huo Suicheng looked at Teacher Zhao beside him,  “Teacher, we’ll go first. Sorry for the trouble caused by my daughter this semester.”

Teacher Zhao smiled gently, “There wasn’t any trouble, Xiaoxiao is very good and doesn’t make me worry at all. ”

Huo Xiaoxiao had a smug smile on her face.

Huo Suicheng raised his hand and touched her head.

In the classroom behind him, Yi Qian and several children crowded at the door, shouting at Huo Xiaoxiao, “Xiaoxiao, goodbye!”

“Xiaoxiao, remember to call me!”

“Huo Xiaoxiao, remember to invite me on your birthday!”

Huo Xiaoxiao hugged her dad’s neck and raised her head and shouted back, “See you all, goodbye!”

As they stepped out of the teaching area, the coldness in the quiet campus was palpable.

Huo Xiaoxiao shivered in her father’s arms.

“Cold?”

“Hmm,” Huo Xiaoxiao sniffed, “a little cold.”

Huo Suicheng grabbed her hand and felt the coldness below her skin temperature.

“I’ll let you wear one more piece of clothing.”

Saying this, he unbuttoned his coat and wrapped it around Huo Xiaoxiao who was still in his arms.
