This earth-shattering shout shocked everyone in the room. Huo Ye’s slightly pale face froze for a moment as he looked out of the window.

Xia Sheng had a hand on her waist and the other on the loudspeaker, her beautiful face was full of energy. “Huo Ye, come out. You can stay true to yourself for your fiancée, but you can’t ignore my love, Huo Ye! I like you, I like you so much!”

Thump!

Huo Ye felt something jump in his chest. His fingers could not help but tremble, and he could no longer see anyone else. His pupils wavered.

Xia Sheng. It was the living Xia Sheng. The bloodless face that was lying in a pool of blood appeared in his mind and slowly merged with the person outside the window.

If not for the fact that he was still in a wheelchair. He believed that he must have rushed out to pull this woman into his arms. Such an intelligent woman who could match him. He appreciated it. He liked it. He wanted to protect her. The loneliness that Huo Ye felt out of place suddenly disappeared.

“Ha, Huo Ye, you really have some ideas. You actually deliberately hired someone to disgust me? Let me tell you, even if you don’t want to withdraw from this marriage, you have to!” An Yuan looked at Huo Ye with a complicated expression.

She was initially very satisfied with this man. He was handsome and the future heir of the Huo Family, who was as wealthy as a country. But he had gotten into a car accident and became a cripple. It was impossible for the Huo family to let a cripple inherit the family, and it was also impossible for her to marry a disabled person who had been abandoned by the Huo family. Therefore, this marriage had to be canceled.

“Our family saved you some face and didn’t talk about this matter. You were the one who cheated on us and abandoned our engagement, so you have to break off the engagement!” As soon as she finished speaking, Xia Sheng was brought in by An Yuan’s men.

“Why is it you?” An Yuan was stunned. Wasn’t this a country girl that she had bought to humiliate Huo Ye? An Yuan flew into a rage when she came to her senses. “What were you shouting about outside?!”

“You don’t have to care what I was shouting about. You can call off the engagement, but the An family has to step in and clarify that you broke your promise.”

Xia Sheng looked at An Yuan and said meaningfully, “Ms. An, don’t forget about the contract you signed with my uncle. The higher-ups clearly want me to pretend to be you and marry Huo Ye. Don’t tell me that you don’t know about the matter between you and the third young master of the Zhou family? The price of buying someone, don’t tell me that you’re engaged and have a bastard child with someone else.

“I’ll return your words to you. Our Huo Ye is saving face for you. If your An family still wants this face, then go back and think about how to break this engagement!”

Hearing this, An Yuan’s family felt like they had been slapped. An Yuan clenched her fists and glared at Xia Sheng viciously. “You did it on purpose to get close to Huo Ye, didn’t you?”

Huo Ye’s eyes were fixated on Xia Sheng from start to finish.

How could Xia Sheng like him? His fingers were on the wheelchair, and there was a complicated look in his eyes.

“Of course I did it on purpose.” To his surprise, Xia Sheng admitted it quickly.

She turned to Huo Ye, her eyes focused and direct. “I, Xia Sheng, like Huo Ye. What’s wrong with that? For such an outstanding man, anyone with eyes would want to stand beside him, right?” Xia Sheng was like a proud little fox. She held her head high and her eyes were full of sly pride.

“No matter what kind of Huo Ye he is, I like him.”

She liked everything…

Huo Ye’s throat tightened. The suffocating pleasure added a flush to his pale face. Even though he knew Xia Sheng was lying, Huo Ye couldn’t help but sink into her love. In the blink of an eye, his clear eyes were as sharp and persistent as a hawk’s after a flash of gloominess. His lips curved into an almost imperceptible smile.

“Xia Sheng, it’s not convenient for me to go over. Come here.”

Their eyes met and Xia Sheng was enchanted by his persistent gaze. She walked up to him uncontrollably and squatted down, looking up at his handsome face. “Hm?”

Looking down at the woman who had shocked him in both lifetimes, Huo Ye reached out and caressed her cheek. “Will you marry me?”

The enchanted Xia Sheng replied, “Of course.”

By the time everyone reacted, Huo Ye had already brought Xia Sheng, who was about to become his legal wife, to the Civil Affairs Bureau. Everyone from the An family was dumbfounded.

An hour later, Xia Sheng was also dumbfounded. She had become a married woman? Why did she agree to Huo Ye? She wanted to repay his kindness, but she had never thought of giving herself to him!

“Damn it, beauty is a curse!” Thinking back, she was clearly bewitched by Huo Ye’s face. Xia Sheng didn’t know how to face Huo Ye. After thinking for a while, she took the opportunity to slip away.

At the same time, Huo Ye’s assistant came back and reported, “Young Master, Young Madam ran away.”

Huo Ye propped his head up with a faint smile on his lips. He stared at the marriage certificate with a tinge of warmth in his eyes. “The monk can run, but the temple can’t.” She was already his. Where else could she run to?

Xia Sheng indeed had nowhere to run. She could only go to her own branch company to calm down. In the end, she met her cousin, who was also her uncle’s son.

“Xia Sheng? Why are you here? Weren’t you sold? Don’t tell me you’re here to take advantage of me!” Cousin Xia stopped Xia Sheng with a look of disdain. “This is a company under JE Corporation. Only a top student like me can work here. A wild girl like you doesn’t deserve to be here. Get lost!”

She raised her eyebrows at her cousin and was speechless. Her company was so cheap now, taking in everyone?

Xia Sheng raised her voice. “Security.”

“Yes, call security to chase you away!” Cousin Xia boasted shamelessly.

The security guards arrived quickly. Cousin Xia was very arrogant as he pointed at Xia Sheng and said, “Hurry up and chase this random person out. This isn’t a junkyard that anyone would dare to enter.”

The security officer did not know Xia Sheng. After all, she had never been to a branch company and only the higher-ups here knew her.

But the security guard knew Cousin Xia. He had even smoked several boxes of his wares. After hearing what Cousin Xia said, he immediately chased her out. “Miss, you don’t look like someone from our company. If you want to cause trouble, I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear the consequences. If you know what’s good for you, you should leave quickly.”

Xia Sheng raised her eyebrows. She never expected that she would be bullied at the entrance of her company one day! This feeling was really too fresh..
