Bai Qianrou looked around and saw that there was no one around. She mustered up the courage to say, "Brother Huo, I know that you and Shu Wan are divorced."

Huo Zhengye's brows knitted tightly together, wondering where he had heard this news. However, he did not interrupt and listened quietly to Bai Qianrou's next words.

Bai Qianrou saw that Huo Zhengye had a blank expression on his face and for a moment she was unsure of what he was thinking.

"Brother Huo, I've been in trouble recently. Wu Fenling wants to force me to marry her stupid son. Can you help me?" Bai Qianrou's voice was filled with pleading and despair. Perhaps because she was pressed too hard by Wu Fenling, her expression seemed particularly real.

"How do you want me to help?"

Bai Qianrou's eyes flashed with joy, "Brother Huo, I know you and Sister Shu Wan are divorced. Now Wu Fenling has gone crazy and is using any means to force me. I'm afraid I'll be in danger if I continue to live in her house."

Bai Qianrou paused, "Brother Huo, can I move in with you?"

Huo Zhengye's pupils shrank slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Do you know what you are talking about? How can you, a grown woman, live with me?"

"Brother Huo, I want to marry you. Of course, if you don't want to, we can have a fake marriage. Once Wu Fenling is no longer interested, I will take the initiative to divorce you."

Bai Qianrou finished speaking in one breath and looked at Huo Zhengye expectantly.

Huo Zhengye's face completely sank. His expression could not be described as gloomy. It was like a storm about to come, so terrifying that it made people feel scared.

Bai Qianrou swallowed fearfully, and tears began to flow from the corners of her eyes. "Brother Huo, only you can help me. Please help me."

Huo Zhengye's voice was as cold as the wind, without a trace of warmth, "Impossible."

Bai Qianrou's heart completely sank. She ignored Huo Zhengye's horrifying expression and threw herself at him when she saw him turn around and close the door.

Huo Zhengye dodged, but Bai Qianrou still grabbed the corner of his clothes.

Bai Qianrou cried bitterly, "Brother Huo, since you have divorced Sister Shu Wan, why can't you marry me? How am I inferior to her?"

"Brother Huo, I don't ask for anything else. I just ask you to give me a chance to treat you well. I have liked you for a long time."

"Brother Huo, if you don't agree, then I'd rather die."

As she spoke, a trace of determination flashed in Bai Qianrou's eyes, and she immediately stood up and was about to hit her head against the wall.

But the next second, his arm was grabbed.

Bai Qianrou turned back happily, "Brother Huo, I knew you were not a cruel person and would not stand by and watch someone die."

Before he could finish his words, his voice suddenly stopped.

Huo Miaoyue suddenly let go of her hand and touched her clothes twice with disgust, as if she had touched something dirty.

"Pah, pah, pah, if you want to die, don't die in front of my house, it's bad luck."

Bai Qianrou stared blankly, and suddenly her eyes caught sight of Shu Wan standing beside her.

Shu Wan appeared here at some point, probably just came back with Huo Miaoyue. She looked better than before, without the timidity and hostility in her brows. She looked like a bright flower, full of vigor and confidence.

Bai Qianrou's nails dug deep into her flesh. She was extremely jealous and wished she could tear off Shu Wan's mask and make her act cool and aloof, like a city girl. She thought she was superior to others because she married Brother Huo, but now she was divorced.

Bai Qianrou lowered her head, her eyes filled with mixed emotions, including jealousy and pleasure.
