After Marrying the Officer-Chapter 1147 - 53: Hidden Spies

"She is the daughter of the Ou Family and the daughter-in-law of the Huo Family." Huo Zhongcheng’s expression was icy as he spoke, "So this matter naturally aims at both you and me."

At this moment, Huo Shiqian suddenly nodded and said, "Indeed, it’s not coming from Chuyi."

"The person who signed the authorization is Mr. Liu," Huo Shiqian said, "I have a suspicion..."

Huo Shiqian said, "Mr. Liu probably discovered that the series of events were orchestrated by our two families." 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮

He was referring to the fact that after Liu Yingying threatened Xia Chuyi, she angered Ou ZhenTing, leading Ou ZhenTing to retaliate against Mr. Liu.

At that time, Huo Zhongcheng tried to compensate for his mistake—Su Susu’s affair—by teaming up with Ou ZhenTing against Mr. Liu.

Then, Huo Shiqian glanced at Huo Zhongcheng and then at Ou ZhenTing, calmly saying: "However, Father, you and Lord Father-in-law didn’t go hard on Mr. Liu."

"So now he still has the power to act against both our families."

These words were almost a slight reproach, blaming the two elders.

When making trouble for someone, if you’re going to do it, make sure the person falls into a deep abyss and can’t get back up.

Just giving a little trouble, if the other party finds out and knows someone is targeting him,

there’s only one path left for him—to counterattack fiercely, like Mr. Liu.

The actions of the Ou and Huo families nearly cut off Mr. Liu’s path to advancement.

If there’s no chance of reconciliation on both sides, then Mr. Liu can only take action if he wants to move up.

Upon hearing Huo Shiqian’s words, Ou ZhenTing and Huo Zhongcheng looked slightly embarrassed.

Indeed, they hadn’t fully considered this matter.

Or perhaps they overestimated their ability to control the situation and underestimated others’ desperation.

In summary, it was a mistake made by the two elders, dragging their children into it.

After thinking for a moment, Ou ZhenTing said, "But this matter... I mean us, the matter of causing trouble for Mr. Liu, we did it very secretly."

"So, who leaked the information?" Ou ZhenTing asked.

Upon hearing this, Huo Zhong nodded and said, "We need to investigate the people around us."

Huo Zhongcheng nodded, "Yes, we should."

Soon, the phone rang.

Huo Shiqian went to answer the phone.

Picked up the phone.

"Mm... Okay... I understand."

After a while, or perhaps he hung up the phone first, he said to everyone, "There’s a lead."

"Quickly tell us, what’s going on?" Ou ZhenTing immediately asked anxiously.

Huo Shiqian let out a slight sigh and walked over to Xia Chuyi. After Xia Chuyi sat down, he said, "This matter, as simple as it is, can also be complex, but in my view, it’s mostly a coincidence..."

"A coincidence?" Upon hearing Huo Shiqian’s remark, everyone frowned.

At this moment, Huo Shiqian asked Xia Chuyi, "Chuyi, do you remember the couple from the United States you met on the plane when you returned to the country?"

Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi nodded and said, "Of course I remember, they were a very nice couple from the United States..."

"What’s the matter, do they have a problem?" Xia Chuyi asked Huo Shiqian in confusion.

Huo Shiqian nodded, affirming, "The two of them are spies sent by a foreign country."
