Chapter 1252 - No Choice!

Chapter 1252 No Choice!
When Huo Lin received the news, he was both relieved and saddened. He was about to go back to China the next day!
He had not expected to receive such news before he returned.
At this point, the Huo family could not afford to offend anyone!
“What do you think you’re doing? You didn’t even manage to complete such a simple task? It’s bad enough that you failed, but you even got embroiled in the incident. Don’t you think that the Huo family has enough trouble as it
is?”
Huo Tianxiang was filled with regrets. But too bad, it was too late!
“Father, I was wrong. Or perhaps, we were all wrong, right from the start. Not everyone in China is that stupid. At least, that Mo Beihan is no easy target. Father, we… We underestimated them right from the start!”
Huo Lin was surprised. “What do you mean?”
“Mo Beihan is not as simple as we think. Today, when I watched him punch Tianning, I could tell that his skills were definitely above average. Many of the important families in the capital were present today, and many people were very surprised. Few people in the capital know just how skilled he is.
“Also, he has a subordinate called Qing Lin. One could tell from his air that he is no ordinary person. I think… he reminds me of those lawless international mercenaries. Father, if Mo Beihan did not have enough money, he could not possibly afford someone like that.”
Huo Lin frowned. “The Qiao and Qin families have plenty of money. He does not lack…”
“But Father, have you ever wondered about that? The Qiao and Qin families have plenty of money, the Gu family has plenty of power, and they have united to advance themselves. Why would the Gu family marry their only granddaughter off to someone who is neither associated with politics nor the military? How will they maintain their position in the future?”
“The Mo family is very powerful. The Gu family won’t lose out by sacrificing a granddaughter to obtain the Mo family’s power!”
Huo Lin did not believe it. He was used to being treated deferentially overseas. To him, China was still in the last century, so he did not think highly of the people in the capital.
“No, Father, it is definitely not like that!” Huo Tianxiang had seen what had happened today with his own eyes. Although Mo Beihan had not revealed much, he could sense it.
He had only understood just how frightening Mo Beihan was when he had personally tasted death.
Huo Tianning was sure that without a certain amount of ability, Mo Beihan would not have been so uninhibited in revealing his murderous intent towards Huo Tianning.
People were afraid of powerful people. It was inborn and could not be faked.
The people in the capital did not understand the situation overseas and thought that the Huo family was a large financial group, like the Qiao family or the Qin family.
en
Because they respected the Qiao and Qin families, right from the start, they had been afraid of the Huo family. And at the very beginning, they had placed the Huo family on a pedestal and admired them.
Huo Tianxiang was sure that if today’s events had happened to someone else, they definitely would not dare to reveal such unrestrained murderous intent towards the Huo family’s Third Young Master.
“Father, you must believe me. There is more to Mo Beihan than meets the eye. What should we do now? We’ve probably offended Mo Beihan deeply. We cannot last long in the capital!
“Father, forget our old way of thinking. More importantly, don’t trust that man anymore. He might be deceiving us. Think about it, if the Gu family only wanted the Mo family’s power, then the marriage alliance would have been made with the successor who held the reins of power in the Mo family.”
