"Hey, are you still the Lin Wanwan we know?" Hao Jiajia smiled contemptuously, "You dress so well and have money, so you become arrogant?"

Hao Jiajia's eyes fell on the dress she was wearing. It was the most popular brand and style of the season, and was worth several thousand or even tens of thousands.

"Hao Jiajia, what do you mean?"

"What do I mean?" Hao Jiajia raised her chin, her eyes full of jealousy, "Lin Wanwan, even if you wear branded clothes, you can't change the poor air in you. Who knows where you got all this money? Maybe you got it by some shameful means."

At this point, Hao Jiajia crossed her arms over her chest and said with disdain, "Lin Wanwan, are you being kept by someone? Or are you being a mistress to an old man? Or do you have an improper relationship with Mr. Huo?"

Lin Wanwan was furious and immediately retorted: "No, Mr. Huo and I are innocent."

"Innocent?" Shen Haoyu obviously didn't believe it when he heard these two words. A trace of disdain flashed in his eyes. "If you have nothing to do with Mr. Huo, why did he come to the company to poach you? The next day you asked Xia Lan to hand in her resignation letter. What do you think of me?"

Lin Wanwan looked at the ugly faces of Shen Haoyu and Hao Jiajia, and her anger grew even stronger. "Shen Haoyu, don't judge others by your own standards. Mr. Huo hired me because he saw my ability, and I resigned because I didn't want to stay in that filthy place anymore. As for you, who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to question me?"

Shen Haoyu was choked by Lin Wanwan's words and was speechless for a moment, and his face turned very ugly.

Hao Jiajia was unwilling to give up and continued to aggressively say: "Lin Wanwan, stop pretending. Everyone knows that you were a poor girl before. Now you are suddenly dressed so well and can come to such a high-end place. If not being kept by someone, what is it? Dare you say that you are not here to buy gifts for a wild man?"

Lin Wanwan glared at Hao Jiajia, "Hao Jiajia, stop slandering me. I..."

Lin Wanwan was about to say that she was married, but when she thought that once she said it, it might bring trouble to Huo Jingchen, he also didn't want their relationship to be made public.

So, Lin Wanwan said unhappily: "I use my own money to buy gifts, what does it have to do with you?"

"Where did you get the money to buy gifts?" Hao Jiajia sneered, "Lin Wanwan, do you think we will believe your lies?"

Lin Wanwan straightened her spine and said fearlessly: "Believe it or not, I have a clear conscience. I don't want to waste any more time with you, get out of the way."

However, Hao Jiajia still stood in front of her and refused to let her go.

"If you don't make your point clear today, don't even think about leaving." As she said that, Hao Jiajia took out her cell phone, recorded a video of Lin Wanwan, and started yelling in the mall.

"Everyone, come and have a look. This innocent female college student is being kept by a strange man..."

In front of everyone, Hao Jiajia began to plant the yellow trees in the evening.

Suddenly, all eyes in the mall fell on her.

Lin Wanwan subconsciously took a step back. Seeing everyone gathering around her, she became anxious. “Stop taking pictures, Hao Jiajia, I told you to stop taking pictures…”

At this moment, the bodyguard pushed through the crowd and rushed towards them immediately.

"Young lady..."

Seeing the bodyguard coming over, Lin Wanwan quickly said, "Let's go!"

The bodyguards nodded, and one of them escorted Lin Wanwan away. The other bodyguard fiercely knocked the phone in Hao Jiajia's hand to the ground and said, "I told you to stop filming. Can't you hear me?"

"Lin Wanwan, you are not allowed to leave!" Seeing Lin Wanwan leaving, Hao Jiajia pretended to chase her, but was stopped by the bodyguard.

At the same time, Shen Haoyu pulled her arm and shook his head at her, "Forget it, let her go!"

Hao Jiajia picked up the phone on the ground, held it tightly in her hand, with a look of unwillingness on her face.

Lin Wanwan hurriedly left the mall under the escort of bodyguards.

She couldn't calm down for a long time. After being disturbed by Hao Jiajia's behavior, her originally happy mood was gone.

After returning to Luming Manor, Mr. Huo was not there. Lin Wanwan sat alone in the room, feeling very aggrieved.

She didn't understand why Hao Jiajia was so aggressive and why she spread rumors and slandered her.

She had done nothing wrong, but she had to endure these groundless accusations.

At this time, the door was pushed open.

Lin Wanwan raised her head and saw that it was Huo Jingchen who came back. She quickly turned around and wiped her tears.

Looking at her actions, Huo Jingchen frowned. Why was she crying again?

Huo Jingchen came over, and Lin Wanwan turned around, pretending nothing had happened, and said with a smile: "You're back!"

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Huo Jingchen sat beside her and asked with concern, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Lin Wanwan hesitated for a moment, but still told Huo Jingchen about her encounter with Shen Haoyu and Hao Jiajia in the mall.

After hearing this, Huo Jingchen's face instantly darkened.

"Did they bully you?"

Lin Wanwan shook her head, "No."

She didn't want to make Huo Jingchen worry, nor did she want him to feel that he was useless and could only cry when being bullied instead of fighting back.

Huo Jingchen was not stupid. Looking at her red eyes, he guessed that she must have cried out of grievance just now.

"I'm sorry, I originally wanted to buy you a gift. In the end, I didn't get to buy you a gift."

Hearing Lin Wanwan's self-blaming words, Huo Jingchen reached out, gently stroked her face, and comforted her softly: "It's okay, I'll make it up next time. As for Shen Haoyu and Hao Jiajia..."

At this point, Huo Jingchen's eyes flashed with a hint of coldness, "Don't worry, I won't let them have an easy time."

Hearing this, Lin Wanwan grabbed his arm and said nervously, "Huo Jingchen, you don't have to vent your anger for me. You must not do anything illegal."

Hearing this, Huo Jingchen curled his lips, with a hint of pampering in his eyes, "Don't worry, I won't kill anyone."

If a woman dares to bully him, Huo Jingchen, he will make them pay the price and even regret coming into this world.

Lin Wanwan then slowly breathed a sigh of relief. She was so scared that she thought Huo Jingchen was going to kill them.

After all, Huo Jingchen is a man of omnipotence in Kyoto. He is known for his cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness. Is there anything he can't do as long as he wants?

Looking at the simple and kind-hearted Lin Wanwan, Huo Jingchen felt a sudden pang of heartache for no reason and subconsciously hugged her in his arms.

The sudden hug caught Lin Wanwan off guard. Her hands froze in mid-air, and she was a little at a loss.

Huo Jingchen, he actually hugged her?

"Don't be afraid, silly girl. I'm here to protect you."

Huo Jingchen's gentle and soothing voice came to her ears. Lin Wanwan leaned her body against his chest, feeling the warmth of his embrace. She instantly put aside the grievances she had just experienced, and the anger in her heart gradually dissipated.

Her hands slowly wrapped around his back, a hint of joy on her face.

She knew that with Huo Jingchen around, she had nothing to fear.
