Her destiny stolen? The Divine Witch Ancestor has returned!

It was Ye Linyan.

He was wearing a sharp suit, and his gloomy gaze softened when he saw Wu Zhao.

Wu Zhao curled his lip and coldly looked away.

Huo Weiwei seemed a little afraid of Ye Linyan, and tightened her grip on Wu Zhao's arm.

"What's wrong?" Wu Zhao asked in a low voice.

"...It's nothing," Huo Weiwei replied softly. "Why don't we leave first? There are so many annoying people here."

She didn't give a reason, so Wu Zhao didn't ask any further questions.

"Miss Wu, are you leaving so soon?" Ye Linyan stopped them, seemingly noticing that they were about to leave.

With a familiar smile on his face, he looked at Wu Zhao and said, "Today it was the Ye family's fault. On behalf of my brother, I apologize to you for this good-for-nothing daughter."

"I'll cover all of Miss Wu's expenses here today. How about that?"

Ye Mingzhu looked at him in disbelief, "Uncle, how could you side with the Huo family!"

He only received a cold glance from Ye Linyan.

Huo Weiwei's expression began to turn strange as Ye Linyan spoke, and she instantly became so angry that her eyebrows shot up after he finished speaking.

Ye Linyan actually coveted her future aunt-in-law!

"I don't need you. This is my Gu family's territory. Whatever Zhao Zhao wants, the Gu family will pay for it!" Huo Weiwei glared at Ye Linyan.

Looking at Huo Weiwei's face, Ye Linyan frowned.

He still really hates everyone related to Gu Chen.

It's an eyesore no matter how I look at it!

Thinking this, he exuded a chilling aura.

Huo Weiwei involuntarily shrank back.

Wu Zhao gave him a cold look and put his arm around Huo Weiwei's shoulder.

"Go home to get treatment if you're sick; if you can't get treatment, go out and die."

Ye Mingzhu couldn't help but shout, "You dare to curse my uncle? You country bumpkin, you're asking for death!"

"Ye Mingzhu." Ye Linyan's voice made Ye Mingzhu tremble. She glanced at him cautiously and then immediately lowered her head.

“Miss Wu, what I said before still stands. If you change your mind, you are welcome to come anytime.” Ye Linyan turned to Wu Zhao, his eyes softening even more.

nerve.

"What I said the other day still holds true; just looking at your face makes me want to punch you. Want to try?"

Wu Zhao spoke very bluntly, but unexpectedly Ye Linyan burst out laughing.

"It seems that my face is still quite attractive to Miss Wu."

Knowing that he shouldn't say anything more in public, Ye Linyan glanced at Ye Li, who was staggering to her feet, and Ye Mingzhu, who looked indignant.

He said, "I'm sorry to have disturbed Miss Wu's mood today. I hope I'll have the opportunity to make amends for this mistake. I'll take my leave now."

"Still not leaving?"

Ye Li glanced at Ye Mingzhu first, and then followed Ye Linyan.

Ye Mingzhu didn't dare to get angry. She glared at Huo Weiwei before chasing after her.

The shop's sales staff breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Qingyao finally parked her car and went upstairs, just as she brushed past Ye Linyan.

Upon discovering him, Qingyao immediately became somewhat nervous.

As she jogged into the store, she saw Wu Zhao patting Huo Weiwei's head, seemingly comforting her.

"Young Miss, what's wrong?" Qingyao quickly went over. "Is it because of those people from the Ye family just now?"

Huo Weiwei was a little downcast. She threw herself into Wu Zhao's arms and said in a muffled voice, "Let's go home. I want to go home."

“Okay, let’s go home.” Wu Zhao winked at Qing Yao.

Qingyao's lips twitched, but he still nodded and said, "Okay..."

Good heavens... He had just parked his car in the underground parking garage where there were cars everywhere!

On the way back, Huo Weiwei kept her head down in silence, picking at her manicured nails.

Seeing that she was about to pick off her newly done nails, Wu Zhao sighed and held her somewhat cold hand: "Don't be nervous or upset, we're almost home now."

"If you're really feeling unwell, just go back and tell Gu Chen. Do you think he'd let you suffer?"

"After all, who hasn't—" liked a few scumbags when they were young?

Wu Zhao glanced casually at Qing Yao driving, then swallowed the rest of his words.

After Ye Linyan and Huo Weiwei met, Wu Zhao saw the broken red thread wrapped around Huo Weiwei.

The red thread swirled around Ye Linyan before being mercilessly swept away by the purple aura emanating from him.

...What a one-sided and wishful marriage!

Huo Weiwei's fingers, which were curled up in her hand, twitched slightly, her face deathly pale.

It was obvious that they had heard what Wu Zhao hadn't finished saying.

His eyes immediately turned red and filled with tears.

It fell down with a pattering sound.

"Hey, hey, don't cry." Wu Zhao immediately became flustered.

The great sorceress fears neither heaven nor earth, yet she is truly afraid of someone shedding tears in front of her.

Qingyao was also somewhat shocked.

She was a pampered young lady from a wealthy family since childhood, yet she actually had moments of feeling wronged and crying?!

"Oh my god, the sky is falling!" Qingyao cried out inwardly.

Even after arriving home, Wu Zhao still couldn't appease Huo Weiwei.

Huo Weiwei got out of the car crying and said in a hoarse voice that she felt unwell. She then ran into the house and locked herself in.

Gu Chen, who was handling official business in his study, was somewhat surprised to hear the commotion outside. He looked at the clock on the wall and stood up.

Back so soon?

He opened the door and saw Wu Zhao standing outside, looking unusually embarrassed.

"What's wrong, Zhao Zhao?" Gu Chen stepped aside to let her in. "Why are you back so soon?"

Turning the ring on his finger, Wu Zhao said with a hint of helplessness, "Um, I think I accidentally revealed Huo Weiwei's little secret..."

"Weiwei?" Gu Chen asked, puzzled. "What happened to her?"

Wu Zhao sighed, walked to the sofa in the study, sat down, and hugged a cushion next to her.

"I never expected that your niece... would actually have a crush on Ye Linyan?"

……what?

Gu Chen stood frozen in place. "Weiwei... likes Ye Linyan?"

Not only her, but even Gu Chen didn't discover this.

"I really didn't mean it. I just wanted to say a few words of comfort to her." Wu Zhao twirled the ring and took a breath.

But when she looked at Ye Linyan and Huo Weiwei before, she clearly didn't notice anything wrong.

How did this marriage line suddenly appear?

Somewhat puzzled, Wu Zhao looked at Gu Chen: "She's hiding in her room crying right now. Just pretend you don't know anything. Anyway, there's no chance between them. It seems like Huo Weiwei is just indulging in wishful thinking..."

"..." Gu Chen couldn't help but give Wu Zhao a deep look.

Of course, it's all one-sided enthusiasm.

Ye Linyan, that guy, really likes Zhaozhao—

But clearly, this clueless person in front of him didn't take Ye Linyan's ideas seriously at all.

She thought he was just plotting against her.

Thinking about this, Gu Chen didn't know whether to be happy or angry.

“Weiwei is young and easily embarrassed, let her process this herself.” Gu Chen sat down next to Wu Zhao. “As for Zhao Zhao, how did you feel about your trip today?”

Wu Zhao thought of the building that exuded an aura of wealth and made a sound of agreement.

"Feel……"

"You're really rich."

Gu Chen was taken aback: ?
