Hypoxia

Chapter 130 Jade Pendant
The next morning, even though Lin Xi told Huo Yunshen thousands of times last night, she must get up early, lest the old man think she is lazy.

But when Lin Xi woke up, it was already 09:30, Lin Xi looked at the half empty bed next to him, and secretly scolded Huo Yunshen for not waking her up.

You must know that the elderly don't sleep much. The old man usually wakes up at six o'clock. Lin Xi went to the old house as a guest, but he slept until after nine o'clock. It's really shameful.

She hurriedly got up to wash up, and ran downstairs. Huo Yunshen was sitting in the living room, saw Lin Xi coming down, and smiled: "Are you awake?"

Lin Xi complained and said, "Why didn't you wake me up? What time is it? The old man should be upset again!"

Huo Yunshen smiled slightly: "Last night was too hard, I'll let you sleep a little longer."

Lin Xi punched him: "He's such a big man, how can he be so serious!"

Huo Yunshen took her hand, hugged her into his arms, and said, "Don't worry, Grandpa and Xiaoyu left early in the morning."

"Going out? Where are you going?" Lin Xi asked.

"Xiaoyu said that she wanted to go out for a walk with the old man, so the elder and the younger went out after seven o'clock. You should thank your precious son for allowing you to sleep longer." Huo Yunshen said.

Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief and asked again: "Is it okay for them to go out like this? There are always some strange things happening recently, is it unsafe?"

"Don't worry," Huo Yunshen comforted, "I'll let the bodyguards follow me every step of the way, and nothing will happen."

Lin Xi nodded and said, "I don't know what's wrong, my eyelids are always twitching recently, and I feel uneasy when I don't see you and Xiaoyu for a while."

Huo Yunshen hugged her into his arms and said in a low voice, "It's my fault that made you feel insecure."

Lin Xi smiled, and hugged Huo Yunshen back: "Don't talk nonsense, it's nothing."

The two sat in the living room for a while, Lin Xi went to the kitchen, seeing that breakfast was ready, and the two of them hadn't come back, Lin Xi began to worry, and urged Huo Yunshen: "Why don't you make a phone call?" ? Let them come back for breakfast, they have been walking for two hours."

Huo Yunshen nodded: "Okay, I'll call them back."

As soon as the words fell, Huo Yu's crisp voice came from outside: "Mommy!"

Lin Xi was relieved when she saw Huo Yu running in. She walked over to hug Huo Yu and said, "Why have you been walking for so long?"

Huo Yu smiled and said, "Because my grandfather and I went to buy something good for Mommy!"

"Really? What good stuff?" Lin Xi asked with a smile.

Huo Yu ran to the butler, brought over a beautiful little box, and said, "Mummy, this is for you!"

Fenfen's box was tied with a ribbon, Lin Xi opened it, and inside was a beautiful red apple, Huo Yu said with a smile: "Christmas is coming, my grandfather and I are going to buy apples!"

Huo Yunshen walked over to take a look, and said, "Run so far just to buy apples?"

The butler immediately explained: "No, no, I met an old man selling apples on the way. It was freezing cold and looked pitiful. The young master and the old man bought both. There was a beautiful package inside. The young master specially took it back and gave it to Miss Tang."

Lin Xi looked at Huo Yu, and Huo Yu nodded immediately: "Yes, yes! Grandpa is carrying a box of apples by himself, so pitiful."

Lin Xi touched Huo Yu's head with a smile, and said, "Xiao Yu is great! She is a kind and good boy!"

Being praised by Lin Xi made Huo Yu very happy. The old man took Huo Yu to wash his hands and prepare to eat. Lin Xi looked at Huo Yu's back and said happily, "My son gave it to me!"

Huo Yunshen looked at Lin Xi's little show off, and shook his head helplessly. Lin Xi took the apple out of the box and said, "Why is this box so big?"

She poked the bottom of the box, and it was empty inside. Lin Xi had seen many boxes like this. The bottom was hollowed out to make the box bigger, but the things inside were actually very small.

Lin Xi saw something inside through the vague gap, she poked it curiously to make sure there was something hard inside, Lin Xi put the apple on the sofa, and carefully opened the box to avoid putting the apple in the box. Huo Yu's gift was broken.

Then, the bottom of the box was completely opened, and inside was a beautiful jade pendant with a red string hanging from it.

Lin Xi took a look, his face changed drastically, the jade pendant slipped from his hand, and fell on the coffee table with a crisp sound.

Huo Yunshen immediately asked: "Xiao Wu, what's the matter?"

Lin Xi pointed to the jade pendant and said, "That...that's in the box!"

Huo Yunshen picked it up and looked at it, but he didn't see anything unusual, but Lin Xi seemed to have been greatly frightened. Huo Yunshen asked anxiously, "Xiao Wu, what's wrong with you?"

Lin Xi shrank into Huo Yunshen's arms and said, "That... that's what Huo Qi gave me!"

"What?" Huo Yun was shocked.

Lin Xi told him about the origin of this jade pendant. Five years ago, after Lin Xi became pregnant, she learned that Huo Yunshen and Yin Shi were about to get married. She was unhappy in the Tang family. Huo Qi gave this to her. What did he say Come on, Lin Xi has almost forgotten it for so many years, but seeing this jade again, those memories suddenly emerged.

Huo Qi said: "I know everything, but I won't hurt you."

He also said: "I can help you leave Jiangcheng at any time, as long as you want."

She who was still Tang Wu at that time didn't take this matter to heart at all. Later, she did leave, but she left in such a cruel and decisive way, without asking Huo Qi for help.

After so many years, Lin Xi has almost forgotten about this incident, and she doesn't even remember where she put this jade pendant, but now, the jade pendant from five years ago is placed in front of her, and she forcefully pulls it back all memories.

Lin Xi grabbed Huo Yunshen's clothes and said, "Yunshen, what does he mean? Where did he find it?"

Huo Yunshen hugged Lin Xi and comforted him: "It's okay, it's okay, don't be afraid, it's okay."

"No, he must have found the exact same piece. Maybe I remembered it wrong. How could he find something that I couldn't find myself?" Lin Xi stood up abruptly and said, "I I have to go back and look for it, he must be scaring us!"

"Xiao Wu!" Huo Yunshen held her back: "Don't go."

Lin Xi shook her head: "Huo Yunshen, I have to go and see for myself."

Huo Yunshen couldn't resist her, so he could only go with her. The two hurriedly greeted the old man and went out. He told the bodyguards to keep an eye on old man Huo and Huo Yu, and not to go out today.

Huo Yunshen drove Lin Xi to the apartment, which was the place where she raised her baby. She hadn't come back for so many years, and she finally found the place, but she didn't have the key. Lin Xi anxiously rang the doorbell, but the door was opened.

A middle-aged man came out and asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Lin Xi froze for a moment and asked, "Who are you?"

The man looked at Lin Xi strangely, and said, "I am a resident here!"

Lin Xi was stunned. Is he a resident?This is Lin Xi's house, how could there be other residents?

"How could you be a resident? This is my house!" Lin Xi said immediately.

The man was obviously stunned for a moment, and then asked with a smile: "Are you the landlord? No, I signed a contract with a man whose daughter looks different from you!"

Lin Xi immediately realized that when she was away, Tang Weishan rented the house to someone else, and the man saw Tang Qianqian, not her.

Because before Liu Ruyun left, she did not know how to transfer almost all Tang Weishan's property to Lin Xi's name, and forced her to sign, so Tang Weishan couldn't sell the house when he was in a hurry, so he could only fool around. Let someone else rent out the house.

Lin Xi couldn't care less, she opened the door and walked in, asking, "How long have you lived here?"

The man pulled her: "What are you doing! You are breaking into a private house, do you know that!"

Huo Yunshen opened the man's hand and said in a cold voice, "Answer the question!"

The man met Huo Yunshen's eyes, shrank back, and said, "Two...two or three years..."

Lin Xi took out the jade pendant from his pocket and asked, "Did you see this thing when you moved in?"

The man immediately shook his head: "No, there were a lot of women's clothes and children's diapers here when we moved in. It was dirty and messy. If the rent wasn't cheap, I wouldn't have come here! I cleaned inside and out. I checked it five times, but I didn't see anything valuable!"

Lin Xi stretched out the jade pendant in front of him, and said, "Look again, haven't you seen it?"

"I've never seen it before! Who are you guys!" The man became a little impatient.

Lin Xi could only put away the jade pendant, looked at the unrecognizable apartment, turned around and walked out, and heard the man behind him muttering as he closed the door: "Crazy..."

Lin Xi sighed, and said, "Why don't you go back to Tang's house to take a look? I'm not sure where I put it."

"Okay, I'll accompany you back." Huo Yunshen nodded.

The two drove to the Tang's house again. In Lin Xi's memory, the Tang's house was very glamorous under Liu Ruyun's care, but now, the Tang's villa feels a bit dilapidated, and there are no servants in the yard. Often busy, Lin Xi rang the doorbell, and after waiting for a long time, Tang Weishan staggered out to open the door.

Lin Xi looked at Tang Weishan and frowned. The last time he saw Tang Weishan, although this man was down and out, he was still a little energetic. He was thinking about how to ask her for more money to save his company.

But today, Tang Weishan smelled of alcohol and cigarettes all over his body, he looked like he hadn't bathed for many days, and his clothes were very worn out, with some kind of dust or soup on them, it was unbelievably sloppy.

Tang Weishan was taken aback when he saw Lin Xi, and said, "What are you doing here?"

"Open the door, I have something to ask you." Lin Xi said.

Tang Weishan snorted coldly: "What can you do to me? Apart from killing my adoptive father, what else can you do!"

Tang Weishan was indignant. Last time, he originally wanted to use public opinion to suppress Lin Xi, so that Lin Xi would succumb and give him more money to keep his mouth shut. But unexpectedly, the person behind Lin Xi was not Huo Yunshen at all, but Lin Xi from Ouyu. Shi, her biological father was so wealthy that he easily resolved the crisis.

Lin Xi is safe, but Tang Weishan is like a rat crossing the street, everyone shouts and beats him, and he is abused everywhere on the Internet.

Not only did Tang Weishan fail to keep the company, but he made Tang's decline even faster until he went bankrupt. Now he is heavily in debt and unable to pay back, the bank will soon come to take away his car and house and use it for auction to repay the loan.

Tang Weishan has been sitting in the villa for two days and two nights. If he doesn't drink a few more bottles of wine and smoke a few more cigarettes, he won't be able to touch these things in the future!
Lin Xi turned to look at Huo Yunshen, Huo Yunshen said, "The Tang Corporation is bankrupt."

"Yes! I'm bankrupt! Are you satisfied?" Tang Weishan yelled: "Tang Wu! You are a broom star! You and your mother have ruined my family! My wife and children are separated! Are you satisfied!"

Looking at Tang Weishan's hysterical appearance, Lin Xi didn't really feel much in his heart. Whose fault is it that the Tang family is in such a mess?

If Tang Weishan had stayed with Liu Ruyun honestly back then and had children, Liu Ruyun's shrewdness would never have allowed the Tang family to come to this day.

Then Liu Ruyun would not pick Lin Xi home, and there would be no later Tang Wu and Huo Yunshen.

Who is to blame for this?She really doesn't know.

Tang Weishan stood at the door and yelled loudly. Huo Yunshen looked at him coldly and said, "Open the door."

"Mr. Huo! Don't think that you are covering the sky with one hand in Jiangcheng! I have nothing now, this is my home! My house! No one can come in!" Tang Weishan roared angrily.

Huo Yun stared at him blankly: "One million, open the door."

Tang Weishan froze for a moment: "What?"

Lin Xi immediately realized that she pulled Huo Yunshen by the corner of his clothes and said, "Huo Yunshen, there's no need to do this..."

Huo Yunshen repeated, "One million, open the door."

Tang Weishan hesitated for a moment, and immediately opened the door. Huo Yunshen pulled Lin Xi in, walked all the way to the living room, and said, "Go, I'll wait for you here."

Lin Xi ran upstairs, rushed into her room first, and turned the inside out. It seemed that Tang Weishan hadn't touched the room after she left. Lin Xi quickly searched all the places, But nothing.

She ran to Tang Qianqian's room again, which had long been turned into a utility room by Liu Ruyun, Lin Xi could only give up, and turned to Tang Weishan's bedroom, where all the drawers had been turned over, and there was nothing there.

When Lin Xi was rummaging through boxes and cabinets trying to find some traces of the jade pendant, Tang Weishan looked at Huo Yunshen with a flattering smile, rubbed his hands together, and said, "Boss Huo, that 100 million..."

"I'll ask the secretary to transfer it to your account." Huo Yunshen said.

"Okay! Thank you Mr. Huo, I..." Tang Weishan wanted to say something more.

Huo Yunshen interrupted him: "Xiao Wu is not your daughter, if something happens, just keep your mouth shut."

Tang Weishan froze for a moment, then nodded: "I see, I won't talk nonsense."

Huo Yunshen couldn't hear others saying that Lin Xi was not good at all. If others said it, he could teach them a lesson, but if Tang Weishan said it, he couldn't help it.

Even if Lin Xi said that Tang Weishan was not related to her by blood and that Tang Weishan was not her father, Huo Yunshen knew that if Tang Weishan had nowhere to go, Lin Xi would not let her go. She was the toughest, but also the most vulnerable. The softest.

Lin Xi ran down the stairs, rushed to Tang Weishan, took out the jade pendant, and asked, "Have you seen this?"

Tang Weishan froze for a moment, then shook his head: "I haven't seen it before."

"Think about it, have you really never seen it?" Lin Xi asked.

Tang Weishan still shook his head: "I really haven't seen it before."

Lin Xi silently took back the jade pendant and stuffed it into her bag. She tossed and tossed for so long, but just wanted a comfort. Maybe, Huo Qi was just scaring her, maybe, he just found the same thing to disturb her life .

But now, the fact is before her eyes, the jade pendant she never cared about was gone, she couldn't find it everywhere because it was taken away by Huo Qi, the jade pendant is now in her bag, it's just her I just don't want to admit it.

She didn't want to admit it, let alone admit it.

How much does a person know about you if they can easily take something from you that you can't even find anywhere?Learn more about your life?He knows where everything you leave behind is there, and takes it away without a sound.

Lin Xi was frightened for a while, as if an invisible hand pinched her heart, and Huo Qi invaded her life like the ubiquitous air.

Huo Yunshen came over, held Lin Xi's hand, and said, "Let's go, let's go home."

Lin Xi nodded and followed Huo Yunshen out, but Tang Weishan's voice came from behind him: "Mr. Huo, then my 100 million..."

He was afraid of the money he finally got, because Lin Xi didn't find what she wanted, so she just flew away.

Huo Yunshen didn't look back, but Lin Xi paused. She turned around and looked Tang Weishan carefully from head to toe.

For so many years, she seemed to have never faced this man squarely. When she was a child, she didn't dare, because Tang Weishan was always so high and high. Only Tang Qianqian could sit in his arms and act like a baby. Later, she hated him and hated herself as Tang Weishan's daughter.

But now, she is not Tang Wu, she is Lin Xi, has her own family, has her own father, she is no longer afraid of Tang Weishan, and she has put down those hatreds long ago.

Tang Weishan was furiously stared at by her, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Lin Xi looked at him and asked, "You called me a bastard just now, and my mother is also a bastard, right?"

Tang Weishan stopped talking all of a sudden. He was swearing just now because he was angry, so he blurted out those words, but now that 100 million is about to come in hand, he won't continue to swear!
Tang Weishan didn't speak, and Lin Xi asked again: "You have come to this point, do you think it's me and my mother who caused it?"

Tang Weishan was stunned. He just said it casually just now. How could he have thought that Lin Xi would turn over old accounts with him. What's more, Lin Xi's relationship with Liu Ruyun was not very good, so he wouldn't get into trouble with him because of this sentence, right?

Lin Xi smiled mockingly, and said, "Mr. Tang, your life has failed completely. It has nothing to do with me or my mother. You are to blame for all this!"

"I..." Tang Weishan still wanted to defend himself.

Lin Xi interrupted him directly: "I don't agree with Huo Yunshen's promise to you of 100 million, he won't give you a single cent!"

Tang Weishan suddenly became anxious: "Tang Wu! Why do you do this!"

"Just because I don't owe you anything! I don't owe you! Huo Yunshen doesn't owe you either! So, don't even try to get a penny from me!" Lin Xi glared angrily, her momentum undiminished.

Tang Weishan shouted: "Tang Wu, I have raised you so much, you..."

Lin Xi ignored Tang Weishan's call and left the villa without looking back.

She really couldn't listen to Tang Weishan's accusations against their mother and daughter. Back then, Tang Weishan cheated on Lin Yalan, and Liu Ruyun lost her lover and best friend overnight. After 20 years of hard work, how much hatred must there be? Liu Ruyun can bear the humiliation for so many years. To get revenge on the Tang family?

So later, the old man of the Tang family died, Lin Yalan and Tang Qianqian were kicked out, Tang Weishan's career suffered a complete failure, Liu Ruyun did all this, admitted her crimes, went to jail, was imprisoned, and died in the hospital.

Liu Ruyun spent the best years of a woman's life on hatred. She hated so much that she didn't have the heart to love Tang Wu, let alone love herself. All she thought about was revenge.

It is not too much to say that Tang Weishan destroyed Liu Ruyun, so what is wrong with Tang Weishan being destroyed by Liu Ruyun in turn?Tat for tat.

Huo Yunshen followed her out, pulled her into his arms, and said, "Okay, don't be angry anymore, don't be angry anymore."

Lin Xi buried her head in Huo Yunshen's arms for a long time, and said, "Huo Yunshen, I'm very scared."

Huo Yunshen patted her on the back without saying a word, so why isn't he afraid?Huo Qi seemed to put all his energy on Lin Xi. Huo Yunshen had already done everything he could, but the more he cared, the more panicked he became. If something happened to Lin Xi, he really didn't have the courage to say goodbye to Lin Xi. Waiting for the next five years.

Lin Xi sighed and said, "Yun Shen."

"Huh?" Huo Yunshen responded to her.

"What if Huo Qi's target is not me?" Lin Xi said suddenly.

Huo Yun was stunned for a moment: "What did you say?"

Lin Xi looked up at Huo Yunshen, and said, "He always wanted to defeat you, didn't he? If he was just playing tricks, did he actually take you as his target?"

Huo Yun smiled deeply and said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

If the target is him, that's great, he can give it a go without any scruples.

Lin Xi shook her head, hugged Huo Yunshen tightly, and said, "Promise me, no matter what the result is this time, don't let go."

Five years ago, it was because of Huo Yunshen's willful protection of Tang Wu that misunderstandings arose and Tang Wu came to a desperate situation.

This time, she didn't want to be kept in the dark again, foolishly waiting for Huo Yunshen to come back.

Huo Yun hugged her deeply and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"

He couldn't guarantee this, because he knew that if there was any danger, he would give up everyone and keep Lin Xi first.

This decision seems to be instinctive, without hesitation, and never regret it.
