"Can we...put aside the halos and instructions of our respective families and get along seriously?"

"If you still can't truly love me by then, I will take the initiative to find my parents and go to the Fei family to cancel the engagement."

"What did you say!?"

Fei Zeyi had no intention of thinking about the real point she wanted to express in these words.

Instead, when he heard her mention Shi Rong and said so many things that he didn't know at all, he was stunned on the spot. He stood there in a daze, unable to recover for a long time.

Huo Wanwan thought that Fei Zeyi didn't hear clearly what she said, and was about to repeat it patiently when she heard a greater burst of anger from the man on the other end who had already reacted.

"Huo Wanwan! I want to break off the engagement with you. What does this have to do with Shi Rong?! Can't I have other friends of the opposite sex? I just went to her workplace to see her, and I like her?"

"Then I see so many women outside every day. Do I fall in love with every one I see? This is something you can understand if you just think about it. Why do you ask your eldest brother to punish her? Do you know who she is? Are you mentally ill? Can you please stop going to your eldest brother whenever you have something to do? I'm telling you, Huo Wanwan, you're not just naive and ignorant, you're vicious!"

After saying that, Fei Zeyi hung up the phone in a rage and blacklisted Huo Wanwan's number.

"I……"

Huo Wanwan was frightened by his increasingly fierce roar, and her eyes filled with tears. She cried loudly and couldn't speak.

Didn't my second sister say that as long as you are honest, you can get the happiness you want...

Why did Zeyi still refuse to forgive her even though she had already told him everything?

A deep courtyard in the mountains.

Ever since the last time Shi Rong was injured in Huating Shengshi.

For more than a month, Huo Jiuzhou did not allow her to go out, and even did not allow her to do the maid work here.

In addition to ordering her to take three meals a day on time, he would also find Xing Jiashan to help her treat her difficult and complicated illnesses.

You must go to bed at 10:15 pm and are not allowed to get up before 8:00 am.

She even made clear regulations with Wu Tanqiu about the dosage of medicine she needed to take every day and what clothes she should wear, and she followed the rules in her diet and dressing.

Such a life not only made Shi Rong feel depressed and suffocated, but also did not make her feel any extra gratitude towards this man.

Thanks to him, she successfully gained 10 kilograms from her original weight of 80 kilograms.

She is no longer skinny and withered, and has gained a lot of body shape. Except for being a little hunched and listless, she has basically regained her former graceful and proud curves.

Even the many ugly scars that crisscrossed his body were gradually decreasing.

Except for this face, which could not be saved no matter how many beauticians were sent, the skin quality of her entire body has been restored to its former state of being as white as cream and as fair as ice.

What to say?

Everything that Huo Jiuzhou painstakingly arranged for her made her suddenly feel like a canary he had locked in a cage.

People inside can't go out, and people outside can't come in.

This kind of life of being told things over and over again was ultimately not suitable for her heart, which had longed for freedom since childhood.

At this moment, Shi Rong was still standing quietly in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the master bedroom on the top floor, looking at the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers in the distance.

She didn't even notice when Wu Tanqiu cautiously came in with the freshly stewed red dates and bird's nest.

The latter saw that Shi Rong seemed to be in a trance recently and couldn't help feeling curious.

"Xiao Rong, what are you thinking about?"

"No."

Shi Rong looked back and shook his head as usual.

Without her saying anything, she picked up the bowl of brightly colored bird's nest and drank it in a few gulps, as if she was repeating a set task, as if she had already gotten used to it.

"Thank you, Aunt Wu."

After saying that, she handed the empty bowl back to Wu Tanqiu, turned around, and moved to the edge of the bed to lie down, ready to take a nap.

This is also one of the many rules that Huo Jiuzhou set just for her: from one to three o'clock every afternoon, it is time for her to take a rest and take a nap.

Wu Tanqiu glanced at the depressed woman on the bed, tiptoed over, and sat down next to her. He was silent for a while, but finally couldn't bear it anymore and started to persuade her.

"Xiao Rong, Aunt Wu knows you're unhappy, but don't blame the Young Master. He's lived under the rules and regulations that Director Huo meticulously set for him every day. How could he possibly fall in love? So he mistakenly believes that doing so is good for someone. In fact, if you really have something that doesn't go your way, you can try to tell the Young Master about it. He won't blame you."

speak out?

Shi Rong's tightly closed eyes slowly opened again after hearing Wu Tanqiu's words.

Could she say that she was unhappy whenever she saw Huo Jiuzhou? She was not tired of living.

"Pfft~"

Wu Tanqiu was amused by her speechless look of having something to grievance but unable to express it, and thought that sometimes Shi Rong, this lovable little woman, could be quite humorous and witty.

There is no need to even express one's true inner thoughts; the subtle and complex expression on one's face is enough to make people laugh.

"Xiao Rong, listen to Aunt Wu and learn to communicate more with the young master in the future. What if there are unexpected gains?"

But pull it down.

Shi Rong couldn't help but secretly twitch her lips. She didn't know whether there were any unexpected gains.

She only knew that if she dared to commit suicide with that man again, she would really have someone to collect her body...

Even though I thought so, I nodded in agreement before taking a nap.

"Got it, thank you Aunt Wu."

……

The prosperous era of Hua Ting.

When Fei Zeyi rushed into Manager Ai Rou's office, the woman was still chatting leisurely on the phone with her best friend.

She was so frightened when she heard the door open with a loud bang that she almost threw the phone in her hand away.

"Hey, Master Fei, what's wrong with you? You're so anxious! I'm your man. Did I upset you?"

When Ai Rou saw someone coming, she wisely put down the phone.

If it weren't for the sake of Miss Seven of the Huo family, Ai Rou would never indulge a rich young man of the same social class as him!

Although the family is rich and wealthy, it is still far behind the wealthy Huo family.

"Sorry for scaring you."

Although Fei Zeyi has a hot temper and acts impulsively, he is also unusually humble and polite.

Realizing that his abrupt behavior had disturbed Ai Rou's leisure time, he lowered his head to her apologetically.

"Oh~ It's okay! I thought some blind person had offended you, but it's okay if that's not the case."

Ai Rou smiled awkwardly and waved her hands. How could she possibly care about such a small matter? Usually, when her big boss arrived, the scene was much more frightening than this.
