Bold and passionate love: Acting coquettishly in Mr. Huo's arms
Chapter 21 Drive out
A few years after their marriage in their previous life, this pair of friends who were as close as brother and sister finally got together behind her back.
At that time, she already had a place in the Zhong Group. In order to eliminate her, the man and woman cooked the accounts and colluded to falsely accuse her of tax evasion.
After being caught by her, Li Mian pushed her down the stairs and killed her.
Ruan Xingchen will always remember that when she fell in a pool of blood, the two men hugged each other and sweetly discussed how to create the illusion that she committed suicide out of fear of punishment.
It looks so familiar and fake.
"So what if I trample on him?" Ruan Xingchen sneered, "He came to me so I could step on him. It's something we both agreed to. What does this lady have to do with it?"
"Mrs. Huo, you don't have to be so hostile to me." Li Mian was wearing a light-colored long dress, and her long straight black light brown hair was tied up with a white lily. She looked like a quietly blooming lotus floating on the water, fresh and delicate.
Her tone was also particularly weak, and she carefully defended herself: "Brother Shaoyang and I grew up together, and I have never seen him care so much about someone. Perhaps in Madam Huo's eyes, Brother Shaoyang's sincerity is not worth mentioning. But in my heart, no one should despise his feelings like this."
These words made Zhong Shaoyang's eyes appear a little more gentle.
"That's enough, Miss Li. Aren't you tired of pretending?" Ruan Xingchen sneered, "If you really wanted to do what you call Brother Shaoyang do, you shouldn't have been trying to mediate in front of me while secretly sowing discord."
"You treat him as a treasure, and I don't want to fight for this worthless relationship."
The gossip made her feel itchy.
"You!" Unexpectedly, she just said it without caring about anything. Li Mian's face turned pale and his eyes reddened: "I don't know what you are talking about."
"It doesn't matter whether you know or not." Ruan Xingchen raised her jade hand slightly, pinched her chin and looked around: "You should ask your brother Shaoyang how fierce I am when I fight. You don't want to spend this dinner with such a beautiful face under your slap, do you?"
Li Mian's face turned even paler.
"Zhong Shaoyang." She took a step forward, and the tip of her high heels landed on the leather shoes and crushed hard.
Zhong Shaoyang groaned, large beads of cold sweat broke out on his forehead, his face turned pale and he bent down, almost shouting out without caring about his image.
Fortunately, Ruan Xingchen was quick enough to grab his jaw.
"Don't mess with me. I don't want to see you again in this life." Ruan Xingchen smiled, bowed slightly and approached, breathing softly: "I just want to live a peaceful life. If you make me angry, don't blame me for being rude."
Then, he clenched his fist and punched hard into the soft flesh of his abdomen.
Zhong Shaoyang groaned again, his body hunched like a shrimp.
She was too utilitarian in her previous life, and marrying Zhong Shaoyang was just a calculation to take advantage of him.
The purpose was not pure, and in the end it ended in misery. The winner is the king, the loser is the enemy, she has nothing to say.
In this life, she was determined not to get involved in the joys and sorrows of the characters in the plot, and just wanted to live a good life with the people she cared about. Even if these people came to provoke her again, she would never let them bully her.
After all, no matter what she has experienced, she is always Ruan Xingchen who fought her way out of the slums with her fists and refused to succumb to fate.
When her gaze, filled with murderous intent and coldness, swept over them, Zhong Shaoyang and Li Mian felt a chill in their hearts. They froze in place for a moment, silent as a cicada in fear.
Ruan Xingchen took out his handkerchief with satisfaction, wiped his hands that had pinched the two of them, and threw it into the trash can as if it were some dirty thing.
Humiliation flashed across Zhong Shaoyang and Li Mian's faces.
"boom!"
"what!"
At this moment, there was a loud scream from outside, accompanied by angry questions: "Huo Qianqian, what are you doing!"
Huo Qianqian?
Ruan Xingchen's eyes narrowed, her high heels tapping rhythmically on the marble floor. Without hesitation, she hurried out and followed the sound.
Several younger brothers and sisters followed along, all the way to the highlight of the dinner, the brightly lit greenhouse.
It is well known in the upper class of H City that Mr. Gu has no other hobbies but to grow orchids.
Precious orchids are rare and difficult to grow, and many people have gone to great lengths to search for them in order to please Mr. Gu.
Among all kinds of orchids, the Suguan Heding is very rare. An ordinary Suguan Heding has been sold for tens of millions in the orchid market, and there is still no demand for it.
The protagonist of the banquet specially hosted by Mr. Gu this time is a naturally mutated double-petaled lotus. It is rumored that someone offered a price of 1 billion, but Mr. Gu was unwilling to give it up.
Now, this beautiful orchid has fallen to the ground, its pot broken and its stem bent.
Huo Qianqian stood in the middle with a pale face, shaking her head and explaining palely: "No... I didn't mean to do that, someone pushed me..."
"Everyone knows that this orchid is Mr. Gu's favorite." Cheng Yi's eyes were full of excitement, and he curled his lips and said, "Everyone stood far away when looking at it, for fear of damaging the orchid. Who dared to bump into you? You are the only one who is closest. If not you, who would it be?"
"Miss Huo." Gu Jiu, the granddaughter of Mr. Gu, was a neat girl with short hair. Her face was icy with anger, and her attitude was naturally not very friendly: "This is the orchid that my grandfather took great pains to maintain... Do you know how much trouble you have caused?!"
"I, I really didn't mean it." Huo Qianqian was in tears.
Of course she was very curious about the precious and beautiful double-petaled lotus orchid, but she was not an ignorant fool.
It was obvious that someone pushed her hard while she was looking at the flowers carefully, causing her to lose her balance and knock over the flowerpot.
But... there was no way to defend herself, she could only apologize softly with a gloomy face: "I'm sorry, I... I will find a way to compensate you..."
Ten billion. If it were Huo Yan, he wouldn't just casually throw that kind of money away.
How could a delicate young lady like her come up with a billion? Moreover...
"Compensation, what are you going to give me?!" Gu Jiu's rage intensified, and he angrily said, "There's only one of these double-petaled white-crowned lotus flowers in the world. Grandpa has no idea how much he cares about it. What are you going to give me?"
Mr. Gu is already old, and I wonder how sad he must be to have his beloved things destroyed! If he suffers from any mental illness, can Huo Qianqian afford to pay for it?!
Just at this moment, Mr. Gu, who was shocked by the bad news, rushed over hurriedly despite other people's dissuasion. When he saw the orchid in the soil, his face suddenly became so gloomy that it seemed as if water seemed to be dripping out of it.
The cane fell heavily to the ground, and he shouted coldly with an unpleasant expression: "Is this the etiquette for your Huo family when they go out to visit guests? Come, please ask Miss Huo to leave. From now on, our Gu family does not welcome guests from the Huo family!"
There was an uproar.
This means that he wants to openly fall out with the Huo family.
The gloating in Cheng Yi's eyes was about to overflow.
