Now that the transaction has begun, the agreement must be followed!
"you!"
The moment he stared at her, Li Ruo's eyes widened, and she felt a chill run through her body.
They did have a partnership, but the contract did not require her to be by his side at all times, nor did it require her to report everything to him or follow his orders.
Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and was about to retort when she heard Wen Huaiyan coldly order to the outside: "Keep a close eye on her and don't let her leave here even a step!"
"yes!"
After the bodyguard outside responded, before Li Ruo could react, Wen Huaiyan angrily slammed the door and left.
Seeing the bodyguards guarding the door, Li Ruo couldn't help but collapse to the ground.
She originally thought that Wen Huaiyan really wanted to take her out to relax today, but she didn't expect that he was already prepared.
She was too naive, thinking she could use this opportunity to send a message to Jiang Ze for help; now it seems like a complete pipe dream.
Not to mention that she has no chance of escaping now, even if she did manage to escape, the entire mountain area is under Wen Huaiyan's control, so how could she possibly have a chance to get away?
It turns out that Wen Huaiyan had long since stopped trusting her; their relationship was nothing but pretense.
Thinking of this, Li Ruo couldn't help but smile bitterly, her eyes filled with heartache and helplessness.
I don't know when it started, but they've gradually gotten to where they are today.
Just when Li Ruo was in despair, the door to the room was suddenly opened.
Hearing the noise, Li Ruo subconsciously looked towards the door and saw the housekeeper rushing over.
Upon seeing the other person, Li Ruo immediately concealed the sorrow on her face and regained her composure.
She didn't want anyone to see her current disheveled and helpless state.
However, having lived with her for so long, and having just witnessed Wen Huaiyan leave in a huff, the housekeeper already had her suspicions.
Now that he sees the mess in the room, how could he not know what happened?
Seeing Li Ru sitting on the ground in a daze, the housekeeper shook her head helplessly: "Miss Li, I really don't understand. You finally won Mr. Wen's favor, so why did you have to rebel against him and make him angry just now? In that case, everything you did yesterday will have been in vain."
Thinking of Li Ruo's efforts yesterday, the housekeeper couldn't help but feel sorry for her and subconsciously felt indignant on her behalf.
Li Ruo was quite clever before, knowing how to please and listen to Wen Huaiyan. She did an even better job yesterday, otherwise Wen Huaiyan wouldn't have given in so easily.
If things continue like this, the two of them might soon reconcile.
But she went against the grain and made things so tense. In the end, wasn't she the one who suffered the most?
But Li Ruo was already feeling wronged, and hearing the housekeeper's sigh made her even more resentful: "Why do I have to please him? What did I do wrong! I just didn't do what he expected, what's wrong with that?"
As she spoke, she glared directly at the housekeeper: "Don't I have any rights of my own? I'm a human being too! I have my privacy, and I have things I want to do. Why should I have to listen to him in everything? I'm not his caged bird!"
The housekeeper was taken aback by her sudden outburst and was clearly frightened.
After all, in her memory, Li Ruo had always been gentle and composed, and had never lost her temper like this before.
Although she could understand Li Ruo's feelings at this moment, she couldn't help but whisper when she thought of Wen Huaiyan's ruthless methods: "Miss Li, Mr. Wen is sometimes a bit too controlling towards you, but I can see that he treats you very differently from others. Perhaps he treats you this way because he cares about you and doesn't want you to leave."
After all, as long as Wen Huaiyan speaks up, let alone force him, even if he has to work like a slave, there will be a whole bunch of women lining up to come to him.
However, upon hearing this, Li Ruo couldn't help but sneer, her face full of disdain, and said, "Who cares about his love? If I'm kept locked up like this, I'd rather die!"
She simply couldn't believe that someone as cold-blooded and ruthless as Wen Huaiyan could actually fall in love with her.
Ultimately, it's all about satisfying his desire for control.
Who can't act out love?
Upon hearing this, the housekeeper's expression changed, and she quickly waved her hand, saying, "Pah, pah, pah, Miss Li, you can't say such things! If Mr. Wen hears this, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
She had just watched Wen Huaiyan leave in anger.
Over the years, apart from the first time the Wen family took over, when the other party got angry, there has never been such a significant emotional fluctuation.
The last time he lost his temper, he dealt with several shareholders in one fell swoop.
The housekeeper couldn't help but shudder at the thought of those people's miserable state.
But Li Ruo didn't care at all. Her plan had been thwarted once again, leaving her completely heartbroken and desperate: "So what if he hears? Can he kill me?"
If I really die, it will be the end of it all, at least I won't have to stay here and suffer anymore.
