As he got older, Huo Zhenghui was known to have a bad temper. Not only did he not get along with his sons, but he was also strict on his people. It turned worse when, one by one, his sons died from illnesses and accidents that left him without a successor.
His eldest son died at the age of forty five, leaving a childless wife behind. Three years later, his youngest son died in a car accident, leaving him with the second son, who he'd kicked out years ago from the company and later became Huo Yunhao's father.
Huo Yunxi married a german woman named Irina Augenstein as he settled for work in Europe, away from the Huo family. Although more talented and smarter compared to his two brothers, Huo Yunxi had no passion or interest to run their family business, infuriating his father.
