In short, He Meixin, the identity hidden behind the scenes, was about to surface.

Needless to say, the reporter in the report must be that damn seductress, Ye Rong. Since he couldn’t hook up with Wu Wei, he wanted to force her into a corner.

When this report came out, Wu Wei would definitely be under a lot of pressure. If he did not give up on her, then he would face a lot of pressure from all walks of life. This pressure was not as easy as coming from a family.

Was that why he had suddenly decided to marry her right away? He wanted to cut off his path of retreat and harden his heart?

He Mei thought about this possibility and was suddenly at a loss.

She wanted to be with him, but when she remembered that she was going to be with him in the future, would they be able to face the pressure from the outside world together? Did she have the heart to see him endure this?

"Do you still want to go with him?" he asked in a low voice, his eyes gradually dimming as he looked at her.

"I ..."

"Your identity has already been exposed. Even if I let you go, do you think you can still reach his side? Now that you have already been sealed with the seal of my Huo Jiu, do you think that any man would dare to take you on? " He sneered, looking at her still dazed expression and coldly said.

"What do you mean?" She suddenly felt that he was being arrogant and despicable.

"Wu Wei is indeed powerful. There aren’t many people in this world who dare to go against me. He is one of them." However, do you think that he will be able to withstand the pressure of the media and pick up the woman who was abandoned by Huo Ziyun? He looked at her and continued to speak cruelly.

"What do you mean by a woman you abandoned? What happened between us was pure accident, didn’t you know that? "We weren’t the kind of old lovers that everyone thought we were. I didn’t love you, and you didn’t love me either. Other than a dream, there was nothing between us ..." He Meixin suddenly became agitated as tears welled up in her eyes.

"Who knows? Everyone will only care about what they see before their eyes and who will investigate what the truth is. " He scoffed at her statement.

"You demon, five years ago you destroyed my youth. Are you going to continue destroying my life?" He Mei Xin was infuriated. She frantically picked up the notebook in front of her and smashed it onto the ground.

’Bang! ’A sound rang out. The laptop had been smashed to pieces, but Huo Jiuzi’s expression had not changed in the slightest.

"Since you said I’m a devil, then I’ll be a complete devil. Listen up, unless I allow you to scram, don’t dream of leaving the Huo family. Otherwise, I’ll make you regret it for the rest of your life." He said with a cold voice.

This was the real him. Cold, ruthless, domineering, cold-blooded ...

Heh ... She Meixin smiled bitterly. At this moment, she could be considered to have completely seen through his true appearance.

"You want me to regret it for the rest of my life? What do you want to do? What else do you want? " She laughed dejectedly as tears rolled down her cheeks.

"If you want to know, just give it a try." As he spoke, he straightened up and walked over to her. His large hand gripped her chin tightly. "Keep your tears away. I hate women crying in front of me."

"Why are you doing this to me? "Why?" she asked softly, looking up at him.

You could have gone with him and even married him, but now that so many things have been dug up by the media, I can’t let go. Remember, your daughter is the eldest miss of the Huo Family, so even if it’s for her face, you have to stay by his side and protect her. His voice was filled with a merciless statement. Every word and sentence was extremely chilling.

"So, I am just a chess piece for the sake of protecting the face of your Wealthy Class, right?" she asked, trying to break free of his hold on her.

"Yes. I don’t think Wu Haotian will let a girl like you be his daughter-in-law either. You knew that, didn’t you? " He laughed, a cruel laugh that shattered the dreams in He Mei’s heart.

She was speechless and did not have the strength to retort his words. She turned around and walked out of the study room, slowly returning to her own room.

Sitting blankly in front of the French windows, she hugged her knees tightly and buried her face deep in her lap. The warm sunlight scattered on her body, but she could only feel the cold winter air.

Huojiao’s words echoed in her ears like a magic spell, making her unable to free herself.

She Yimeng had entered her room at an unknown time and saw her sitting foolishly in front of her bed, looking extremely depressed. Her chubby little hand stroked her head, and her childish voice sounded in her ear, "Mommy, don’t cry. I’ll protect you ..."

Hearing her daughter’s voice, He Mei became absent-minded. She slowly raised her head and looked at He Fumeng beside her. The tears on her face had yet to be dried.

She Yimeng saw He Mei’s tears. She gently wiped her face with her hand and said, "Mommy, I’ve grown up. I won’t let anyone bully you anymore ..."

When He Mei Xin heard this, tears once again surged out as she hugged him tightly in her embrace.

That’s right, even if she lost the whole world, didn’t she still have a baby by her side?

"Mommy’s okay, baby, thank you for your concern ..." As He Meixin spoke, she sniffed and said, "Let’s go down for lunch. Mommy has something to do."

"Mhmm, then Mommy, please be happy!" She Yimeng nodded, pouting on her face to comfort her.

"Alright, go quickly." Touching his little head, she nodded, then patted his little butt to let him out.

She Yimeng turned around and left. She Meixin took out her cellphone from her purse and dialed Wu Wei’s number.

The phone rang for a while before it finally connected.

"Beautiful." His low, magnetic voice came through the phone to her ear.

"Wu Wei, I ..." She Meixin opened her mouth, but found herself unable to make a sound.

"What’s wrong?" Wu Wei hurriedly asked when he heard He Meixin say these words with some hesitation.

"Where are you now?" What was she going to tell him? She couldn’t go abroad with him, she couldn’t marry him?

She had never had the heart to refuse him everything he did to her ... Never...

It was just like how he never had the heart to do anything to hurt her.

In the past five years, they had known each other so well. Now, after so much difficulty, she couldn’t marry him. How could she possibly say this?
