Chapter 347: There is no Gong Family in Beicheng Anymore
Huo Shu calmed down and said calmly: "Where did Ting Xiao hear this gossip from?"
"After Ting Xiao kidnapped the girl, I did go to the Gong family to mediate. My original intention was to adjust the relationship between the two families. After all, our two families are both top families in North City. We can't just stop interacting with each other because of this matter, right? That would not be good for the development of our two families."
Huo Shu spoke very logically, as if she really had the best interests of the Huo family in mind.
But Huo Tingxiao just sneered, "Don't bother, aunt."
He strode to the main seat, emitting the aura of a king. His sharp eyes swept across everyone's faces, giving off a strong sense of oppression.
"The Gong family has fallen. There will no longer be a Gong family in North City."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present felt as if struck by lightning.
Huo Shu was stunned for a long time without reacting, and murmured: "What are you talking about? The Gong family is a pillar family in North City, how could it suddenly disappear?"
Huo Tingxiao curled his lips, but there was no trace of a smile on his lips.
"Why? Auntie seems very sorry? It seems that you have a very close relationship with the Gong family."
Huo Shu was stunned, a trace of panic flashed in her eyes, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm just surprised."
Huo Tingxiao ignored her and announced to everyone: "The Gong family is tired of living, and they have the guts to plot against our Huo family. They took advantage of us and almost caused several industrial chains of our Huo family to be in trouble. How can I tolerate him?"
The Huo family members all knew about this matter. They were all more or less involved in the Huo family's business operations, so they were naturally very angry about the actions of such a mean person as the Gong family.
Therefore, the first reaction of the Huo family members present when they heard this was relief, but at the same time they were even more shocked. The Gong family is a century-old family with such deep roots, but Huo Tingxiao could actually uproot them like this?
It's really amazing!
They dare not even think about such a thing!
Mr. Huo felt a moment of emotion. After all, the two families had been friends for many years, and it was hard not to feel emotion when they collapsed like this.
But when it comes to major issues, the old man can tell the difference clearly.
"After all, it was the Gong family who took action first. If they are ruthless, don't blame us for being disloyal."
Mr. Huo was the first to affirm Huo Tingxiao's approach, so everyone naturally had nothing to say. Moreover, without the Gong family, the Huo family's foundation and power in North City will become stronger and stronger.
So, everyone started praising Huo Tingxiao at once, praising Huo Tingxiao as the head of the Huo family.
Only Huo Shu kept her head down and said nothing. Her quietness was very inconsistent with her personality.
Huo Tingxiao glanced at her, his eyes full of sarcasm.
He motioned for everyone to be quiet and spoke slowly: "Don't worry, this matter is not over yet."
Everyone was surprised, and then they heard Huo Tingxiao continue to speak.
"Haven't you ever thought about this question? The Gong family has always been less powerful than our Huo family. How could they have caused such a heavy blow to our Huo family all of a sudden?"
To be honest, this question does puzzle everyone.
At that time, several business lines of the Huo family were all hit hard. It was indeed shocking to say that the Gong family could accomplish this with just their strength.
Mr. Huo was puzzled. "You mean, there are other people involved in this matter?"
Huo Tingxiao curled his lips sarcastically and his eyes fell on Huo Shu.
"This person not only helped, but also played a very important role!"
