Chapter 138
Is Huo Jingfeng afraid?
Of course I'm scared!
From childhood to adulthood, he grew up in the shadow of his cold-blooded and ruthless eldest brother.
Therefore, even if he was unwilling, he only dared to do things behind Huo Jingzhou's back. When he was in front of Huo Jingzhou, he would become weak-kneed and cowardly.
At this moment, Huo Jingfeng was so frightened by Huo Jingzhou's terrifying gaze and aura that he almost turned and ran away.
but……
Seeing the two of them embracing, Huo Jingfeng's resentment and jealousy still prevailed.
He gritted his teeth, "Brother, do you know what you're doing?"
How dare you make a lewd gesture towards Miss Wen?
"She is..." my fiancée!
Huo Jingzhou's eyes flashed with murderous intent as he calmly raised his hand.
Two bodyguards appeared out of nowhere and grabbed Huo Jingfeng's shoulders and hands without any politeness, pinning him down like a prisoner.
"Big brother!"
Huo Jingzhou said coldly, "Throw it out."
"Let me go, brother! You can't do this! How could you lay a hand on Miss Wen?! You bastards, what are you doing? Do you know who I am? Let me go!"
“Miss Wen, it’s me, Huo Jingfeng! I was wrong about the broken engagement, I misunderstood you, I didn’t mean it…”
"Miss Wen, please forgive me? There's no future for you and my older brother, please don't compromise yourself!"
Even though Huo Jingfeng's hands were almost dislocated from being roughly pressed down by his personal guards, he still kept jumping around. He truly deserves to be called the male lead!
Wen Xin's red lips twitched slightly. Does this male lead even have a brain?
Or are all male protagonists in angst novels just like this... shameless?
They don't value what they have, but they're unwilling to accept what they've lost and want to go back to it.
Does he really think he's the center of the world and everyone has to revolve around him?
Does he want it and then not want it?
Moreover, which eye of his saw that her being with Huo Jingzhou was a compromise?
Huo Jingzhou is powerful, affectionate, devoted, and responsible. How shameless must the male lead be to think he can surpass him?
Before Huo Jingzhou shot Huo Jingfeng dead, Wen Xin lifted her head from his arms, frowned, and looked at Huo Jingfeng with a distant and displeased gaze.
"Young Master Huo, the annulment of the engagement was a matter of mutual consent between us. There is nothing I need to forgive you for."
"Also, my business with Young Marshal Huo is none of your concern, so please don't talk nonsense."
Huo Jingfeng felt a pang in his heart from her cold gaze. This shouldn't be happening, this shouldn't be happening.
He murmured, "You should have been my fiancée."
Wen Xin looked at him as if he were a mentally ill idiot. "We're announcing our engagement!"
Huo Jingfeng gritted his teeth, "Then how could you talk to my older brother..."
"Young Marshal Huo saved my life and has been incredibly kind to the Wen family. He has always taken care of and protected me. Isn't it only natural that I would fall for him?"
Wen Xin nestled obediently in Huo Jingzhou's arms, her eyes sparkling with tenderness, and anyone could see her complete dependence on Huo Jingzhou.
She genuinely wanted to be with Huo Jingzhou!
This realization nearly shattered Huo Jingfeng's confidence; his expression was a mixture of confusion, resentment, and anger, twisted and contorted.
No, how could she not love him and instead love Huo Jingzhou?
She must be completely devoted to him!
Huo Jingzhou's thin lips curved slightly, and the coldness and hostility emanating from him dissipated somewhat. He lowered his head and kissed Wen Xin's forehead in a gesture of assertion in front of Huo Jingfeng, saying gently, "Shall we go back first?"
Wen Xin nodded gently.
Seeing how affectionate they were, Huo Jingfeng's eyes reddened.
"Wen Xin, do you know what kind of person Huo Jingzhou is? You want to be with him, but he's not at all like the upright and noble hero you see on the surface!"
Huo Jingfeng is really courting death!
If he can't have it, why should Huo Jingzhou be able to?
Wen Xin stopped in her tracks.
Upon seeing this, Huo Jingfeng's dark side rapidly expanded, filled with hatred and a desire for revenge.
"Do you know how many people Huo Jingzhou has killed? Do you know how cold-blooded and ruthless he is?"
"Let's not talk about distant examples, just take Tao Ran. He keeps talking about governing the world by law, yet he publicly tortured her and used his power to sentence her to a death row prison... If he can be so cruel to a woman, what about others?"
Wen Xin: "..."
Wen Xin was speechless with frustration. "Second Young Master Huo, do you know that Tao Ran intended to kill me and cruelly pushed me off the second floor?"
However, Huo Jingfeng still tried to get her to sympathize with Tao Ran?
This... no normal person would ever do something so stupid!
Huo Jingfeng's twisted hatred froze, and without thinking, he blurted out, "But, aren't you alright now?"
Wen Xin's gaze was colder than ever before. "Just because I'm fine, does that mean Tao Ran doesn't need to be punished?"
Huo Jingfeng felt embarrassed by her gaze and said awkwardly, "That's not what I meant, but her punishment was too harsh."
Wen Xin said coldly, "No punishment is too severe for criminals who maliciously harm others."
In her past life, Tao Ran caused a miscarriage of her soul fragments, yet she remained carefree and at ease.
In this life, does she still dare to act so arrogantly in front of Wen Xin? Does she really think she's a gentle and kind saint?
Huo Jingfeng looked at her in disbelief and murmured dejectedly, "I thought you were a kind girl."
Wen Xin: "Oh, then I'm sorry to disappoint you, I'm not."
Huo Jingfeng was immediately speechless!
"Are you really determined to be with my older brother? You really can't let Tao Ran go?"
Wen Xin is ignoring him now.
But Huo Jingfeng was really unwilling to accept it.
He suddenly broke free from the grip of the two guards and ran towards Wen Xin, trying to grab her...
Bang!
A bullet grazed his face, but the dark muzzle of the gun remained pointed at him.
Huo Jingzhou's expression was extremely cold. "The next shot will be your head."
Having narrowly escaped death, Huo Jingfeng was so frightened that he fell to the ground, staring at Huo Jingzhou with resentment and fear in his eyes.
He suddenly looked at Wen Xin, trying to see on her face either worry about him or hatred and fear towards Huo Jingzhou.
However, all he saw was her still gently leaning against Huo Jingzhou's chest, her eyes filled with that man. Whether he was a righteous soldier or a fierce devil, she was willing to love him.
Huo Jingfeng could barely breathe, unsure whether it was out of fear or jealousy.
The commotion here has gotten quite big, and even Commander Huo has been alerted.
When he arrived, he learned what stupid thing his second son had done, so he picked up his cane and gave him a good beating.
After the beating, Commander Huo ordered his men to drag him back and lock him up, forbidding him from being released again without his permission.
However, when Commander Huo met his second son's ferocious and resentful eyes, he felt neither exhaustion nor disappointment.
