"Dongjue, let's go back first. We can talk about it when you're better." Shen Xinghui couldn't bear to see him like this.

Lu Dongjue chuckled softly, "Wait until I'm better? What if she's gone by then?"

The other party was Huo Beichen, whose conditions were no worse than his own.

For the first time in his life, Lu Dongjue felt a sense of oppression.

He had never been so worried before. He was so afraid that Yun Suiwan and Huo Beichen had gotten together.

Shen Xinghui sighed helplessly, "Dong Jue..."

"Help me out of the car, I need to see her."

He had made up his mind; he wanted to see her, no matter what it was, he hoped she could explain things to him in person.

Shen Xinghui couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she could only help him out of the car.

At that moment, Huo Xiaowu angrily kicked open the Yun family's door.

At this moment, the Yun family's bodyguards rushed out.

If Huo Xiaowu dares to cause trouble again, the bodyguards won't be fooled.

Huo Xiaowu was even angrier when he saw this.

"Yun Suiwan, weren't you so brazen about having your cake and eating it too? Why are you hiding now and too scared to show your face?"

Huo Xiaowu shouted into the courtyard.

The Yun family's house is a courtyard-style villa, with a yard the size of several football fields. His cursing is pointless; Yun Suiwan can't hear him at all.

"Yun Suiwan, Dongjue is here. If you've got the guts, come out and confront me! What are you afraid of? Let me tell you, even if you're with my brother, I'll never call you sister-in-law!"

"Hey, that's enough!" Da Wu and Xiao Wu stepped forward, pointing at Huo Xiao Wu with sideways faces, signaling him to shut up.

"Fuck you, you dare to tell me what to do?" Huo Xiaowu was used to being arrogant, and now that he was so angry, someone still dared to stop him. They must be tired of living.

At this moment, Shen Xinghui helped Lu Dongjue walk over.

At this moment, Lu Dongjue was as weak as an old man in his twilight years.

Upon seeing Lu Dongjue, both Da Wu and Xiao Wu instantly became respectful.

“Mr. Lu.” Da Wu lowered his head.

"I want to see your young lady." Lu Dongjue's voice wasn't loud, but it was extremely intimidating.

Da Wu and Xiao Wu exchanged a glance, their faces showing a troubled expression.

“Mr. Lu, it’s not that we don’t want you to come in, it’s just that Miss…”

"I am coming."

Before Da Wu could finish speaking, Yun Suiwan's voice came from behind the crowd.

The bodyguards lined up in two rows to make way for her.

Yun Suiwan, with her long hair loose and wearing a champagne-colored silk nightgown, walked towards Lu Dongjue.

Upon seeing her, Lu Dongjue's gaze instantly became intense.

Yun Suiwan, however, remained indifferent.

Yun Suiwan stood on the steps, looking down at him, and said, "What are you doing so late?"

She had absolutely no interest in him.

Instead, he disturbed her sweet dream, and she looked somewhat displeased.

Lin Zhibai frowned upon seeing this and said, "Wanwan, Dongjue has just woken up and is still feeling unwell. He doesn't even have the strength to walk on his own. Even so, he still wants to come see you."

"Oh," Yun Suiwan replied indifferently, then looked at Lu Dongjue.

At this moment, Lu Dongjue was being supported by Shen Xinghui, and he no longer looked like his usual powerful self.

He was incredibly weak.

"You saw me? Go back now, I need to rest, I have an early meeting tomorrow."

Yun Suiwan spoke as if he were dismissing a child.

"Yun Suiwan, that's enough, that's going too far! Brother Dongjue is so sick but he still came to see you, what kind of attitude is this?" Huo Xiaowu said indignantly.

"Heh." Yun Suiwan scoffed, looking at Huo Xiaowu. "Did I send him?"

Hearing her words, Lu Dongjue felt a pang of pain in his heart.

His body began to slide uncontrollably, but Shen Xinghui held him tightly.

Yun Suiwan's heartless demeanor is truly heartbreaking.

"Yun Suiwan, let's have a chat." Lu Dongjue tried his best to appear normal, but he didn't know that he was already extremely weak.

Yun Suiwan glanced at him condescendingly, as if looking at a humble suitor.

“Lu Dongjue, you know perfectly well that you are not in good health, yet you still come over in the middle of the night. You only ever think about yourself and never consider other people’s feelings.”

She felt no gratitude at his coming to see her despite his illness; instead, she felt somewhat resentful.

“Wanwan…” Lu Dongjue spoke again.

What did he do to offend her that made her so cold towards him?

Yun Suiwan looked at him expressionlessly, "Lu Dongjue, you can say what you have to say here. There's nothing between us that we've done in public."

She wouldn't even give him a chance to be alone with her.

"Yun Suiwan, what exactly happened between you and my older brother? Who made the first move?"

Seeing Lu Dongjue being treated so badly, Huo Xiaowu couldn't help but question him loudly.

But at least he was somewhat fair and didn't directly accuse her of seducing Huo Beichen.

Upon hearing this, Yun Suiwan's face showed a hint of disdain.

She said to Lu Dongjue, "Is that all you want to know?"

Lu Dongjue stared intently at her without saying a word.

"It's good that you came today, so I don't have to look for you again. It's true, Huo Beichen and I are together now."

Yun Suiwan's voice remained as calm as ever.

It seems that cheating is as commonplace to her as eating and drinking.

Lu Dongjue felt a sharp pain in his chest, and his brows furrowed tightly.

"Yun Suiwan, what happened to our previous relationship?" Lu Dongjue asked in a low voice.

"Between us?" Yun Suiwan laughed. "Lu Dongjue, what feelings do we have? Have you forgotten how many insulting things you said to me on the day we got engaged?"

He once grabbed her by the neck and yelled at her, telling her not to be delusional about marrying into the Lu family.

In just a few months, their positions have been reversed.

The one who got hurt has changed to the protagonist.

Lu Dongjue lowered his eyes; he felt guilty towards her.

He misunderstood her back then.

“Lu Dongjue, I’m only with you because you forced me. You’ve mistaken ‘force’ for love? Do you think I have Stockholm syndrome?” Yun Suiwan kept laughing, a laugh that was completely undisguised.

"What...do you mean?" Her words almost made his heart stop beating; he vaguely thought he had misheard.

"Being with you is nothing more than compromising myself. With you, I can easily get rid of Yun Wanqing and Sun Yanwan. That doesn't seem so bad, does it?"

"Cough...cough cough..."

Suddenly, Lu Dongjue started coughing uncontrollably. He covered his mouth, bent over, and looked extremely pitiful.

"Dongjue!"

Lin Zhibai quickly came over and helped him up.

He shouted at Yun Suiwan, "Wanwan, that's enough!"

Yun Suiwan smiled indifferently, "Enough? That's far from enough. The scars he inflicted on me can never be erased in this lifetime. Doesn't he want to see me? Then I'll make him taste the suffering I endured back then."

Yun Suiwan's voice was extremely harsh. Even though Lu Dongjue was coughing so badly, she still showed no pity.
