Chapter 32: Catching Her Weak Spot

Huo Dongming was not angered by her words.

Shang Wanwan was embarrassed and angry, and his cheeks flushed red, so much so that he even thought she did it on purpose.

She was just folding clothes but he still said such obscene things.

What kind of dog is he? He is so hungry as if he has never eaten meat.

"Huo Dongming, it's still daytime and the servants are here."

Shang Wanwan looked at the door and found it was ajar.

I should have been on guard against him earlier, but this is their shared room.

Huo Dongming opened his mouth and bit her delicate neck.

"If you're afraid they might hear you, just bear with it. But Wanwan, don't think I'll let you go."

Shang Wanwan didn't expect that he would use her weak spot to threaten her?

Shang Wanwan clenched her teeth. The fine beads of sweat on her forehead made her originally fluffy black hair become sticky. A strand of her messed up hair stuck tightly to her right cheek.

"don't want……"

Huo Dongming heard her sobbing.

"What do you mean by no, Mrs. Huo?"

Shang Wanwan didn't dare to resist for fear of hurting the baby in her belly.

However, Huo Dongming moved his face closer to her.

"Mrs. Huo, think carefully. Without me, your family, your brother, and your business will go back to the way they were three years ago."

He spoke horrifying words in the cruelest voice in her ear.

He knew where her soft spot was.

Shang Wanwan was so scared that she broke out in a cold sweat.

"No, you've already helped me."

He was the one who saved Shang Xingyuan. Her father was initially accused of commercial fraud and used his position as a shareholder to cash in on the profits for his own benefit. The lawyer that Huo Dongming found for her father proved Shang Xingyuan's innocence.

"My father was framed."

She absolutely didn't believe that her father would do such a thing. If he really did, he must have been framed.

Shang Wanwan didn't believe what Huo Dongming said at all, but she wondered if some things were directly related to him.

"Framed? He is the largest shareholder of the company. Who has the ability to frame him?"

He said cruel words and asked Shang Wanwan to look into his eyes, not letting her escape.

Shang Wanwan gritted her teeth and her eyes turned red with hatred.

"No, my dad is not like that."

Shang Wanwan struggled to prevent him from succeeding.

The servants downstairs were indifferent to the earth-shattering situation of the gentleman and mistress upstairs; they were used to it.

Upstairs, Shang Wanwan lay motionless like a lifeless doll.

It felt like a knife was stabbed into my heart.

She asked Huo Dongming in a weak tone.

"What do you mean?"

Shang Wanwan was unable to think. Huo Dongming was standing in front of her, and his handsome face turned terrifying.

"Go back and ask."

He calmly took his clothes and walked towards the bathroom without further explanation.

After a while, the sound of water came from inside.

Shang Wanwan struggled and sat on the bed, unable to calm down for a long time.

Huo Dongming wanted to save Shang Xingyuan, and three years had passed, so there was no need for him to lie to her.

But why, when the merchant was already very rich, why was my father still so greedy and almost ruined the family?

Reality hit Shang Wanwan on the head like a club.

Is it also a kind of greed that she came back to Huo Dongming for some unknown reason?

Huo Dongming came out of the shower, answered a phone call and left.

Shang Wanwan's mind was full of the prosecution of Shang Xingyuan for cashing out his stocks.

She has always believed that her father is innocent until today.

"Ma'am, are you going out?"

It was getting late, Shang Wanwan changed into some casual clothes, put on a coat and asked the driver to drive her to the hospital.

When Zhang's mother saw her about to leave, she ran out and asked.

"Well, I'll be back in the evening."

She knew that Zhang's mother would tell Huo Dongming.

She also knew that Huo Dongming would no longer monitor and control her.

He holds the lifeblood of the business in his hands, and she won't leave.

Shang Wanwan got into the car, and Chen Yao was surprised to see her come to the hospital so late.

"Wanwan, I told you your dad is fine."

Chen Yao didn't answer her call, and when she looked behind her, there was no sign of Huo Dongming.

Has the couple's conflict not been resolved yet?

"Is Dad awake?"

Shang Wanwan regretted her decision after arriving at the hospital.

How could she be so impatient to come and call for justice for a patient?

"He's awake. I just fed him a bowl of porridge. Go check on him."

Chen Yao was very happy. She told Shang Xingyuan that her daughter was capable and that the medical expenses were all paid by her daughter without spending any family money.

"Wanwan, you're here. Sit down."

The merchant had a close call with death and seemed to be in better spirits.

Money can buy life.

"Dad - drink less next time."

Shang Wanwan put down the fruits she had bought temporarily and also placed the nutritional supplements on his bedside.

"These were bought by Dong Ming. He is busy now. He will come to see you next time."

Shang Wanwan didn't tell Huo Dongming about what happened at home, and even if she did, he wouldn't accompany her to the hospital.

The business didn't take it seriously.

"It's OK if Mr. Huo is not available. You should stay with him more and don't let others take advantage of the situation."

Shang Wanwan peeled an orange for Shang Xingyuan.

Her father just woke up, and she wanted to ask something but stopped herself.

After chatting for a while, Shang Wanwan decided to go back.

Chen Yao walked her to the door.

"Mom, tell me about the incident three years ago when Dad was accused of cashing out his stocks. Did you know?"

The smile on Chen Yao's face quickly disappeared.

"Where did you hear that? It's nothing."

Shang Wanwan is not a fool. She guessed the truth in Huo Dongming's words in the blink of an eye.

Chen Yao's tone was evasive, and Shang Wanwan felt a chill in her heart.

"Bang——"

There was a sound of something falling to the ground from inside, and Chen Yao turned around, opened the door and entered the ward.

Shang Wanwan followed him in, and the porcelain cup beside the bed fell to the ground, spilling tea.

Shang Xingyuan stared at Shang Wanwan with bloodshot eyes.

"Xingyuan, what's wrong with you? I'll help you get whatever you want."

Chen Yao wanted to press the bell to ask someone to clean the house, but Shang Xingyuan glared at her back, his eyes still on Shang Wanwan.

"Ask your mother what you just asked her. Ask her again."

Shang Hangyuan was sick, not dead. The door of the ward was ajar, and he could hear clearly what they said outside.

"Wanwan and I were just chatting, we didn't say anything, why are you so angry?"
