The clouds and mists have dispersed, and everyone knows that I love you.

Clearly feeling this unacceptable fact, Shi Rong felt it was so absurd as if he was dreaming.

why?

Even though this man was selfish, dark, cruel and ruthless, his open-minded and generous demeanor enabled him to roam around North City for many years without ever doing anything indecent, let alone slapping a woman himself.

She, Shi Rong, was probably the first one in his life, right?

With an incredulous look in his eyes, Shi Rong covered his swollen face with one hand, raised his head, and his resentful gaze fell directly on the handsome face above his head that was filled with anger.

"You hit me?"

She asked in a hoarse voice, trembling with a hint of heartbreak.

"why?"

She forced herself to calm down, even though the man in front of her was already extremely angry. His pair of brown eyes without any emotion burst out with a cold light, as if he wanted to dig a hole in her body on the spot.

"Why? Shi Rong, things have developed to this point today, and you still have the nerve to ask me why? You are such a jerk!"

He seemed to realize that he was too impulsive, and he saw blood oozing from the corner of Shi Hong's mouth out of the corner of his eye.

The man who had always been as steady as a rock, after beating her, was uncharacteristically angry. He hid his hands behind his back, clenching them into fists tightly to suppress the panic in his body caused by his guilty conscience.

But the words that came out of his mouth were still disgust squeezed out from between his teeth.

Whenever he thought of Shi Rong's relaxed and comfortable smile, unrestrained pride, and carefree playfulness in front of Fei Zeyi, which was completely different from the lifeless and taciturn appearance in front of him, he would become jealous to the point of madness!

Why does Shi Rong dare to do this! ?

Huo Qiye was fine, but in her eyes, was he not as good as Fei Zeyi, a man of mediocre talent?!

As if realizing something, Shi Rong smiled grimly and raised his hand to wipe away the fishy blood from the corner of his mouth.

As for something as common as being slapped, Shi Rong had long been accustomed to it compared to people in Jishan in southern China.

However, the pain felt on my cheek this time was not even one ten-thousandth of the pain in my heart.

The handsome young man who had filled her with romantic feelings and made her dream about him so many years ago, ended up being nothing but her wishful thinking that she had misjudged and loved.

After a long silence, Shi Rong sighed, his voice filled with despair and sadness deep in his bones.

"Okay, Huo Jiuzhou, it turns out you also hit women. Let me guess, why do you do this..."

At that time, Rong slowly stood up with the help of the stool at the end of the bed, and fell back into the man's handsome sight, with a hint of obvious hostility.

"Could it be because I met Fei Zeyi at Hua Ting Sheng Shi this afternoon?"

Even the dumbest person could guess the cause of the incident based on his outrageous words and actions.

As soon as she finished speaking, Huo Jiuzhou's powerful left palm suddenly pinched her rough jaw, speaking sharply and harshly.

"Shi Rong, did I ever warn you to stop having these inappropriate thoughts? You just pretended you didn't hear anything, didn't you? Why are you so forgetful, huh? How many men do you have to fawn over before you're willing to put aside your dirty and despicable ways?"

Shi Rong could feel that the raging rage in his body was burning fiercely at this moment, and the aura around him was fiercer than he had felt in a long time.

That's right, she really couldn't give a reasonable explanation for her encounter with Fei Zeyi in the women's restroom.

But...where did this term come from, which is a dirty and despicable way of currying favor with others?

Life is sometimes so unpredictable. Not long ago, she was using this sentence to warn others; not long after, someone used the same sentence to warn themselves.

The two of them were in a stalemate for a while, until they felt the man's five fingers pinching her cheek gradually tightening. Shi Ying frowned in pain and took a deep breath. Even though she didn't want to, she still defended herself.

"If I say it was just an accident and that I didn't know the Fei family's son, would you believe me?"

"He would give you this if they didn't know each other? He would hug you and kiss you if they didn't know each other? Shi Rong, you should stop treating everyone else like fools!"

Huo Jiuzhou reached into her sweatshirt pocket and roughly took out the bank card with a large balance. His eyes were full of sarcasm and ridicule when he looked at her.

???

He really knows everything!

Shi Rong was now just thankful that the important note had been destroyed by her in advance.

As for the kiss he mentioned, it was just Fei Zeyi leaning over and whispering something in her ear. Is there something wrong with this guy's eyes?

"He just whispered something in my ear, how can you marry me? The bank card was also sent by Xia Zhi, he just passed it on when he passed by. A hug doesn't mean anything, why do you think that everything I do is wrong!?"

This was a question that Shi Rong had been holding in his heart for a long time and wanted to ask Huo Jiuzhou.

She didn't understand. She had already become so humble. What else did Huo Jiuzhou want her to do to be satisfied?

The man stared at her face with sinister eyes, and was shaken for a moment by her exhausted growl. He knew very well that it was a love and care that came from the bottom of her heart and had been buried for many years.

But it was only a tiny moment.

Huo Jiuzhou was still angry and did not answer her question. Instead, he extended his finger and Huo Xun behind him immediately took the bank card and walked out.

The reason for avoiding the answer is simple, because he simply can't answer it.

Shi Rong also knew what he wanted people to investigate, and couldn't help but laugh at himself.

Since when did every word she said to Huo Jiuzhou have to be accurately verified?

Oh, I remembered it.

She is still the culprit who murdered his beloved wife. Perhaps this man has indulged her for too long recently, and she almost forgot about it.

In front of Shi Rong, he didn't even need to make too many explanations. One move, one behavior, one look was enough to make her sober and calm.

Thinking of this, she could understand why the man slapped her.

Compared to the past, he felt that a slap in the face was the lightest punishment for his past crimes.

"Mr. Huo, the account holder of this bank card is indeed Miss Xia Zhi."

It was not until Huo Xun came back in and said this in his ear that the man angrily pushed the woman away.

The tone of contempt that came out of his thin lips was still clearly audible.

"Shi Rong, I'm warning you. Stay away from Fei Zeyi. He's Wan Wan's fiancé now. If anything goes wrong in this marriage because of you, I won't forgive you."

Shi Rong understood.

Because Fei Zeyi is now the son-in-law valued by the sixth branch of the Huo family, even if it is to protect Huo Wanwan's reputation, she, an unforgivable sinner like Shi Rong, is not worthy of getting close to anyone, even if they are only slightly related to the Huo family.

"understood."
