Huo Jinyan took the tablet and scrolled through the reports. The more he looked at them, the dimmer and icier his eyes became.

Handing the tablet back to Chu Ting, he turned to look at the numbers on the computer.

The funds coming in for no discernable reason was probably from the Old Master to make up the deficit made by Huo Shi.

Huo Jinyan rubbed his thumb on his index finger, before eventually clenching his hand into a fist. He stood up, turned around, and left.

Seeing him leave, everyone’s nerves instantly loosened a little.

“Hadn’t Old Master taken a look at this report? He even felt that there would be no problems. So how did Young Master see through it at a glance?”

“Remember what Old Master also said before? ‘Don’t even think about lying to the Young Master, because you’ll never be able to deceive him’.”

“It’s really freaky. Second Master will probably be in deep trouble this time.”

“He overreached his bounds by causing such a huge commotion while the Young Master wasn’t around. If the Young Master hadn’t returned, who knows how grave this situation could have become.”

“When will the Old Master stop indulging Second Master? Will he become even worse in the future?”

“No, with Young Master around, he wouldn’t dare.”

The group of them discussed among themselves as they returned to their desks and continued working.

However, they were all relieved that Huo Jinyan was back.

On the surface, while the accounts were passable, it would not be good if the mistakes were discovered in the future. Huo Jinyan returning and exposing them in person gave them a lot of reassurance.

These accounts do not allow for superficial work.

When Huo Jinyan came out of the elevator, he bumped into Huo Shi, who had rushed over.

Huo Shi was startled when he saw Huo Jinyan; when he regained his senses, he immediately straightened his tie and looked at him. “Jinyan, when did you come back, and why didn’t you go home when you did? Old Master misses you so much that he’s going crazy. Come, let’s go home with Second Uncle.” He pulled Huo Jinyan anxiously, wanting to bring him home.

Huo Jinyan stood rooted to the spot, glancing at the hand on his arm.

Huo Shi turned around and immediately looked at him, chuckling. He silently retracted his hand.

“This child, where have you been for so long? You’ve grown so distant from your Second Uncle. Have you eaten? Second Uncle will treat you to a meal.”

Huo Jinyan looked at him coldly. “Second Uncle, I heard that you’ve been living well recently.”

His words pierced deep into Huo Shi’s heart. His heart was pounding, but he still looked at Huo Jinyan without changing his expression.

“No, I’ve been so busy recently I can barely keep myself afloat. Now that you mention it, I recall that there’s some matter I’ve yet to settle. Hurry home and see your grandfather. I’ll leave first, there’s something to do.”

Sensing that Huo Jinyan was not prepared to let him off, Huo Shi wanted to make his escape.

However, before he could step away, Huo Jinyan stopped him.

“Second Uncle.”

Huo Shi paused in his tracks. Before he could turn around Huo Jinyan had already walked to his side.

“Second Uncle, you know me. I’ll pretend nothing has happened if you straighten things out before noon tomorrow. Otherwise, don’t hold it against me for using radical means.”

Huo Jinyan’s deep voice rang in his ears; Huo Shi subconsciously gulped, sweat beading on his forehead. As Huo Jinyan started to walk off, he looked at Huo

Jinyan and abruptly took a couple of wobbly steps forward, yelling at his back, “Huo Jinyan! I’m your Second Uncle!”

Huo Jinyan did not even look back as he strode out of the company and got into his car.

Night fell, and the company’s lobby lit up; the white light made Huo Shi’s face look pale..
