The obedient girl glances up, and the tyrannical tycoon kneels down to pamper her.

"What is love?" Luo Huai remained calm. "According to Sternberg's triangular theory, love is passion, intimacy, and commitment, which we all have. We got married out of responsibility, but we didn't divorce because of love."

"Love means that if Brother Zhao and your former nominal girlfriend get close, I will be sad. If I walk with someone I used to like, Brother Zhao will definitely be angry. We have a strong possessive desire for each other."

"Guo Hui, on the afternoon you appeared, Brother Zhao was proposing to me. Didn't Han Zhang tell you?"

Guo Hui was visibly taken aback, but quickly laughed again: "Luo Huai, why are you telling me so much? Why are you trying so hard to prove your love? Are you really trying to prove it to me? You're not so sure yourself, are you?"

It must be said that Guo Hui was quite perceptive in sensing Luo Huai's thoughts. She had always been an insecure person, and a sense of security is not something that can be achieved overnight.

However, Luo Huai still smiled and said, "But what I said is all true, Guo Hui. I am truly grateful to you. If you can restrain your thoughts, you will be our benefactor. If you insist on your own opinion, we will be enemies."

“Twenty million is more than most people can earn in a lifetime,” Luo Huai said. “If you think that a mere twenty million can’t compare to the position of the president’s wife of the Xing Group, then you can give it a try.”

The last four words, spoken in calm silence, carried an undeniable air of dominance. She was not afraid of anyone's declaration of war. If anyone could steal Xing Yanzhao's heart, it would mean that she and Brother Zhao could only walk this path together.

She couldn't guarantee that anyone would love her forever or stand by her side forever, but she could guarantee her own.

Luo Huai stood up and said with a smile, "Think about it carefully, and also, look at the people around you."

As soon as she opened the door to the ward, Zhu Shuangshuang, who was carrying a plate of fruit, immediately freed one hand, gave a thumbs-up, put the fruit plate in Han Zhang's hand, grinned, and left with Luo Huai.

"I'm relieved, I'm relieved now!" Zhu Shuangshuang said with a grin. "I don't have to worry about you being bullied while you're not here. Just look at Guo Hui's face, I knew something was off about how she saved you this time."

Luo Huai smiled, and the two returned to the ward.

Han Zhang stood outside the ward, watching Guo Hui deep in thought without going in to disturb her. He also hoped that Guo Hui could think things through and realize that there was no possibility between her and Brother Zhao.

Instead, take a look at the people around you.

He didn't go in until the other person slid back into the covers.

A faint sobbing sound came from under the covers.

Guo Hui felt she had lost completely. Even disregarding family background, when she stood next to Luo Huai, Luo Huai gave the impression of being the rightful wife.

But... all she wanted was to be someone superior to others.

She had this opportunity before, why didn't she seize it?

She heard the soft sound of a chair being pulled out from outside the blanket, and someone sat down. She knew it was Han Zhang, the man who always silently stayed by her side.

But how could Han Zhang compare to Xing Yanzhao!

When Guo Hui was discharged from the hospital, Boss Zeng came and brought a very valuable gift. He said thank you, but Guo Hui didn't know what he was thanking her for.

Since Boss Zeng brought her to Ningcheng and told her about Brother Zhao, he has not contacted her again or asked her to do anything.

And why give such an expensive gift?

Boss Zeng explained with a smile, "You should understand that the reason I brought you to Ningcheng and treated you to good food and drinks is actually to use you to make connections with the Xing family."

"I haven't mentioned you to Brother Zhao," Guo Hui said, somewhat puzzled.

Boss Zeng laughed heartily: "I'm just the owner of a small company. How could I possibly connect with President Xing? I want to connect with the sub-brands under Xing's Group. The headquarters can't interfere with these things. As long as people know that I have a relationship with you, and you have a relationship with President Xing, that's enough."

“Boss Zeng, I…” Guo Hui hesitated for a moment, but finally asked for his opinion, “I am Brother Zhao’s ex-girlfriend, and Luo Huai and Brother Zhao’s marriage is just an arranged one. What do you think, should I take a gamble?”

Boss Zeng narrowed his eyes and said ambiguously, "Whether to take the risk or not is up to you."

Whether he takes the risk or not, it's not a bad thing for him.

If Guo Huibo wins, he will have a direct relationship with President Xing's wife; if Guo Huibo loses, it won't affect him. He didn't encourage Guo Huibo to do any of these things.

Guo Hui smiled and said, "Thank you for coming to see me, Mr. Zeng."

Mr. Zeng also smiled and said, "My niece really likes you, Teacher Guo." This means they're keeping in touch.

Guo Hui's parents already knew about their daughter's car accident and rushed over. Boss Zeng greeted Guo Hui's parents briefly before leaving.

Guo Hui's parents had already learned some of the details from Han Zhang. Seeing that their daughter was alright, they breathed a sigh of relief and then asked who the person who had just gone out was.

"A boss."

Guo's mother's eyes lit up slightly. "Is he the boss of those people in the family?"

"No, he's just my student's uncle." Guo Hui watched her parents packing their things and saw a check for 20 million in her bag. Guo's father immediately took the check and went over to ask where it came from.

Guo Hui said, "I saved someone, and this is the thank-you fee they gave me."

Mr. Guo had never seen so much money in his life and was immediately astonished. Mrs. Guo said, "What's so surprising?" as she went over to look at the checks.

The name above seemed very familiar to her.

“Xing Yanzhao?” Guo’s mother said, “Huihui, I remember you had a crush in high school, and that boy’s name was Lin Yanzhao, right? The name sounds so similar.”

"It's him," Guo Hui said absentmindedly.

Guo's mother's hand trembled, and she immediately went over and said, "You mean this Xing Yanzhao is Lin Yanzhao? Isn't he a poor boy with no parents? Where did he get so much money, spending twenty million in one go?"

He glanced down at the numbers again and muttered to himself, "If I'd known he'd make a fortune, I would have..."

"Mom, please stop talking." Guo Hui was now just as regretful.

When Guo's mother pressed her for details about how Xing Yanzhao had made his fortune, Guo Hui told her the truth: "He is actually the eldest son of the Xing family. He was switched at birth, but before returning to the Xing family, he and his brother had already started a company that specializes in smart technology products. Anyway... he is not only rich but also has status. I estimate that more than 20 million yuan comes into his account every day."

Guo's mother stared in disbelief, pulling her daughter close to her. "Didn't he used to love you to death, and then drop out of school after the breakup? You're divorced now, and you don't have any children. Get back together! Getting back together would be worth more than 20 million!"

Mr. Guo frowned: "Twenty million is more than enough."

"What do you know? Zhang Ting next door is just a shampoo girl. She got pregnant with a real estate tycoon's child, secretly went abroad to give birth, and then came back to negotiate with the tycoon. I heard she got eight or nine hundred million yuan in child support!"

"Zhang Ting?" Guo Hui hadn't been back for a long time and hadn't heard about this. After receiving her mother's affirmative nod, her heart wavered again.

Did she rise to power through her child?

"What does it matter whether you get the top position or not? So many people get married and divorced these days. Getting a huge breakup fee and alimony is the real deal."
