Chapter 35: Are you asking for love in order to get a divorce?
Huo Dongming slammed the door and left. Shang Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief, and Mother Zhang pushed the door open and came in.
"Madam, the husband told you to take this fever-reducing pill."
Shang Wanwan glanced at it indifferently and said calmly: "Leave it there."
Mother Zhang looked embarrassed.
"My husband told me to watch my wife eat it."
Shang Wanwan grabbed the medicine, threw it into her mouth and pretended to swallow it in front of Zhang's mother.
"That's enough."
Only then did Mrs. Zhang leave. Shang Wanwan closed the door of the room and locked it from the inside, then went to the bathroom, spit out the medicine and flushed it down the drain.
She lay back on the bed and put a cold wet towel on her forehead to cool herself down physically.
The baby in her belly does not allow her to take any medicine, otherwise she will regret it for the rest of her life if any disease occurs in the future.
Shang Wanwan lay in a daze all day, had a fever, and had a tasteless mouth.
My stomach is growling with hunger.
She smelled a strong fragrance and opened her eyes, thinking it was Aunt Zhang bringing her food.
The person who came in was Huo Dongming.
The tray in her hand was filled with millet porridge and some light snacks prepared by Zhang's mother for her.
"You've slept all day, get up and eat something."
Shang Wanwan turned her face away.
Huo Dongming softened his voice: "Be good, don't be willful."
He fed the porridge to her mouth with his own hands.
"I have invited the best doctor to see your father. He will definitely not get hurt."
Shang Wanwan was very hungry, but didn't want to eat the porridge he fed her.
Huo Dongming's patience is almost exhausted.
She took out the TV remote and turned up the volume to the maximum to drown out Huo Dongming's voice.
"The latest news from Starlight Entertainment: Yesterday, a reporter accidentally photographed the popular movie star Yi Xiaxue coming out of the villa of Huo Dongming, the president of the Huo Group, and it is suspected that the two are living together. According to insiders, Mr. Huo did not hesitate to use the reputation of the Huo family to please his beloved, just to ask Mr. Huang Qingguo to paint a picture to please Yi Xiaxue..."
Huo Dongming directly snatched the remote control from her hand and turned it off.
Shang Wanwan didn't even move her eyelids.
Huo Dongming looked at her quietly, and Shang Wanwan, who said nothing, used silence to confront him.
He walked up to Shang Wanwan and stroked her face.
Shang Wanwan didn't move.
No matter what he did, she didn't react.
He sat down beside her, pulled a red velvet box from his pocket and opened it in front of her.
Shang Wanwan looked at the shining diamond ring inside, and her eyes lit up a little, but soon dimmed.
What does he want to do?
Take out the ring and give it to her at this time?
ridiculous--
Huo Dongming took out the ring and forcefully put it on her ring finger.
"There is only one Mrs. Huo."
Shang Wanwan's heart felt like it was stabbed by a needle and was in pain.
Mrs. Huo, a ring?
These were the things she had always dreamed of.
But now she doesn't care about it anymore.
"Mr. Huo, I think you should keep it for someone who is really suitable for it."
She took off the ring and threw it aside, then turned around to serve the millet porridge.
She could indeed use a hunger strike to force Huo Dongming to let her go, but she was pregnant and couldn't joke with her baby's life.
Based on Huo Dongming's understanding of Shang Wanwan, she is not that tough.
"What do you want? You've got the status and the benefits. But don't tell me you're in love with me."
There was an extreme mockery in Huo Dongming's tone, and Shang Wanwan's heart was already numb with pain.
The heartbeat of youth, the stunning glance when I first saw him made me love him for so many years.
In order to be a good Mrs. Huo, Shang Wanwan takes his preferences as her own and regards his every move as an imperial decree.
Huo Dongming liked to drink snow water to make tea. She once braved the severe cold on a snowy day to get snow for him to save for the next year just so that she could personally make a pot of tea that he liked.
She did all the humble things that could and could not be done.
But no matter how much she gave, she couldn't get him to look at her straight in the eye, let alone be sincere.
"Yes, I did love you. Huo Dongming, I don't want to love anymore. I'm tired, so let me go."
Shang Wanwan said seriously, with a despair in her eyes that Huo Dongming had never seen before.
At this moment, he suddenly felt his heart tighten and something seemed to be choking his throat.
She had been by his side for three whole years and he had gotten used to it.
He couldn't bear it if she really left.
Huo Dongming sneered.
"Shang Wanwan, you were the one who tried so hard to get into the Huo family. You used all the tricks to get the best out of them, but you were the one who said you didn't want to be in love. Do you think I, Huo Dongming, am a tool you can throw away at any time? It's not that easy for you to leave."
Huo Dongming reached out, pinched her chin, and pulled her directly in front of him.
She looked at his face, in close contact, and Huo Dongming's facial features were magnified in front of Shang Wanwan.
He has stern eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and a tight jawline, which together with the lines of his facial features outline a handsome face that seems to have been carved by God.
Even now, when she was deeply hurt by him and her heart was cold, Shang Wanwan could not deny that Huo Dongming was really handsome.
Years later, even just thinking of this face still makes her heart beat faster.
"Huo Dongming, do you love me? Or, have you ever loved me?"
Shang Wanwan was not seeking confirmation, but was betting on his last line of defense.
Huo Dongming held his forehead with his hand, and a helpless and funny smile appeared on his handsome face.
"Yes, I forgot that you are asking me for love now in order to get a divorce."
He pulled Shang Wanwan into his arms, and Huo Dongming surrounded her with a dangerous and strong masculine aura.
Shang Wanwan has been with him for three years, and she knows exactly what the purpose is behind his eyes and actions.
The difference is that now she is sick and the baby in her belly is in a critical period.
When two people are together so often, it is hard to tell when the baby will be hurt accidentally or discovered by him.
A hint of uneasiness and fear flashed across Shang Wanwan's eyes.
Huo Dongming didn't care about all this. She wanted to leave and he was very angry.
The only way he could think of was to torture her.
Her body and her heart will always belong to him, Huo Dongming.
He doesn't love her, but he needs her love.
"Huo Dongming——"
He can do anything.
She didn't dare to resist, as resistance would only make his rage even more intense.
"I'm sick and I'm not well yet."
She was afraid that he would go crazy.
Huo Dongming finally let her go because of this sentence.
"Shang Wanwan, don't really think I'm a beast."
