Chapter 132
The men in military uniforms are dignified and handsome, their dance steps are graceful; the young women are beautiful, with slender figures and elegant dance moves.
They were dancing the same steps, but when the two of them danced, every touch of their limbs and every exchange of glances seemed to send electric currents through them, creating an ambiguous atmosphere that made one's heart flutter and unconsciously bring a knowing smile to one's face.
No one could tell that the two of them were mutually attracted to each other.
Good news for the young marshal of the Huo family must be coming soon.
That's true. Marshal Huo is already twenty-seven, which is considered an older unmarried man. He should have gotten married long ago.
Of course, some people find it both glaring and heartbreaking!
Huo Jingfeng stared intently at the two people on the dance floor, and finally his mind cleared, and he suddenly realized what Commander Huo meant.
I see!
Huo Jingzhou, how dare he?
Wen Xin is his fiancée!
Huo Jingfeng's eyes were bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth, wishing he could rush over and separate the two of them, and give Huo Jingzhou a few hard punches.
However, Huo Jingzhou suddenly glanced over indifferently, and Huo Jingfeng felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head, almost freezing his breath.
Some terrible memories flooded back, and Huo Jingfeng shrank back, looking away, not daring to meet Huo Jingzhou's gaze.
He could already imagine how much Huo Jingzhou looked down on him.
Then she thought about how that man was now brazenly taking advantage of his fiancée.
Huo Jingfeng felt incredibly humiliated.
After all these years, Huo Jingzhou is still as cold-blooded and arrogant as ever, and now he has even taken his brother's wife.
They are utterly shameless and utterly devoid of conscience!
A selfish and exploitative warlord like him should be overthrown and never rise again!
Huo Jingfeng considered himself to be on the side of justice, constantly condemning and hating Huo Jingzhou, and certain thoughts resurfaced.
If Huo Jingzhou were dead...
"Noah, you like her?"
Tao Ran walked up to Huo Jingfeng's side without anyone noticing.
Noah is Huo Jingfeng's English name used overseas. It's unclear what his mindset was when he chose this name. Does he really think he's a savior?
Huo Jingfeng turned his head. "Jennifer, where did you just go?"
Tao Ran was naturally not qualified to receive an invitation from the Huo family; Huo Jingfeng brought her there.
The two met in country A, and for the past two years they have been tacitly flirting with each other without ever making it official.
Tao Ran always thought that she felt different from Huo Jingfeng, and she could also see the appreciation and infatuation in Huo Jingfeng's eyes.
Initially, she was just trying to hook up with Huo Jingfeng, after his money, and treating him like a sucker.
Later, when she learned that Huo Jingfeng's fiancée was actually the eldest daughter and sole heir of her mother's family, a dark and secretive thought began to surface in her mind.
She wanted to seduce Huo Jingfeng into becoming infatuated with her, and to show that heartless family that had treated her mother how she could trample their heir underfoot.
Tao Ran was confident that she was so beautiful and fashionable, how could she be inferior to an ugly, feudal woman with bound feet?
As she expected, Huo Jingfeng was also unable to resist her, and even published an announcement in the newspaper to break off his engagement with Wen Xin for her sake.
Tao Ran was extremely pleased at the time, feeling that she had won a great victory.
So what if she's the eldest daughter of the Wen family? She's still her defeated opponent!
However, just one day later, the Huo family slapped her hard in the face.
When Tao Ran saw Wen Xin, who was elegant, refined, and stunningly beautiful, in the shopping mall, she felt as if she had been slapped in the face again.
How could Wen Xin be so beautiful?
Shouldn't she be timid, incompetent, and cowardly?
How dare she be so bright and flamboyant?
How dare they mock the mother and daughter?
You despicable feudal remnants!
At this moment, seeing Wen Xin being held in the palm of the hand by the young Marshal Huo, whom even Tao Ran dared not dream of, and easily becoming the most dazzling socialite in Haicheng, and even more so, seeing Huo Jingfeng, who was originally disdainful, bewitched by her...
Tao Ran was filled with an unprecedented sense of frustration.
Wen Xin, that woman trampled her pride and victory underfoot!
Tao Ran was filled with jealousy and resentment, wishing she could pounce on the vixen and ruin her face, to see how she could seduce men again. She also wished that she would be trampled underfoot by thousands of people.
How could a backward and decadent feudal woman be so glamorous?
All the attention should have been on her, Tao Ran!
If Wen Xin knew about Tao Ran's twisted and idiotic thoughts, she would definitely suggest that she go to a mental hospital in Country A for proper treatment.
I've heard that mental hospitals abroad are quite "advanced." To cure patients' strange symptoms, they use electric shocks, beatings, craniotomies, and even rumor has it that they feed patients dog feces...
Wen Xin strongly agreed that these treatments would be effective in treating Tao Ran, and that they would surely cure her completely!
Tao Ran saw that Huo Jingfeng had no intention of answering her question, and his eyes kept involuntarily looking at Wen Xin, a deep resentment flashing in them.
She shrugged casually, "It's nothing. I saw Xiaoyu and went to talk to her."
"However, it seems she misunderstands me and doesn't want to be friends with me anymore."
Huo Jingfeng said somewhat perfunctorily, "You girls just like to have these harmless little conflicts."
Tao Ran's lips twitched; she felt utterly heartbroken for this man.
She sighed meaningfully, "She's your cousin, why would I cause trouble for her? Didn't I tell you before? When I went to the mall with her, I ran into my cousin Wen Xin and had a little misunderstanding with her? Maybe my cousin Wen Xin said something to Xiaoyu?"
When Wen Xin was mentioned, Huo Jingfeng's gaze returned to Tao Ran.
He frowned. "Wen Xin isn't the kind of person who's petty."
She could forgive him for breaking off the engagement, so why would she make things difficult for Jennifer?
There must be some misunderstanding!
Tao Ran's eyes darkened further.
How long has it been, and Huo Jingfeng's heart has become so biased?
Tao Ran lowered her head. "Noah, it's because my cousin refuses to acknowledge me and my mother."
Huo Jingfeng frowned even more, and subconsciously said, "What Aunt did back then was indeed... we can't blame Wen Xin, can we?"
Tao Ran: "..." Damn it, what a stupid, scumbag!
“However,” Huo Jingfeng sighed, “you and Wen Xin are blood relatives, what hatred can’t be resolved? I will talk to Wen Xin later and help you put aside your differences.”
Even Tao Ran was speechless when it came to Huo Jingfeng.
Should he go and say it?
What right does he have to advise Wen Xin?
He still thought Wen Xin was his fiancée.
Is Huo Jingfeng overconfident, or is he deceiving himself?
Is he really blind? Didn't he see that his fiancée was dancing intimately with his older brother?
However, Tao Ran and her mother had no background in Haicheng. If they wanted to gain a foothold in this bustling city and live a life of luxury, she could only cling tightly to the second young master of the Huo family.
She absolutely did not want to live the life of a lower class!
Tao Ran held back, knowing she couldn't disrespect Huo Jingfeng or anger him, so she could only go along with him and fawn over him.
She gave him her favorite look of adoration and dependence. "If only I could, oh my God, Noah, you're so reliable."
