Gu Lanqing immediately became embarrassed.

He thought of the wording and how he could explain it to Ye Tang.

Don't you know?" Last night, in order to save you, Qingqing promised Director Guan that she would go to the Imperial Palace to spend the night with him.

"Jia Rong!" Gu Lan Qing sternly stopped Tian Jia Rong's nonsense.

"Qingqing, why are you shouting at me? Are you still protecting him? He's already twenty years old, and you're going to clean up his mess for the rest of your life? " Tian Jiangrong argued.

The color of Ye Tang's face vanished completely as he swiftly turned and left.

Gu Lanqing didn't have time to say anything to Tian JianRong. She grabbed Ye Tang's arm hastily and asked, "Little Tang, where are you going?"

"I'm going to kill Guan Minglie." In Ye Tang's amber eyes, apart from his pupils, there was more hostility.

"I didn't get hurt by Guan Minglie!" Gu Lanqing grabbed onto Ye Tang's arm tightly, almost as if she was dragged away by Ye Tang. She couldn't bear it any longer and slapped Ye Tang in the face.

She didn't have much strength, and it could be said that she brushed him lightly but he still stopped in his tracks.

The 20-year-old boy's eyes were bright red as he looked at Gu Lanqing with an aggrieved expression. The toad mirror in his hand had already been broken by him.

"Little Tang, I'm really alright." With that, her heart softened. Gu Lan Qing raised her head and looked at Ye Tang.

She said softly, "If I am really bullied, I won't let Guan Minglie off easy even without you doing anything to me." "Can you trust me?"

"Qing Qing, I'm sorry." Ye Tang hugged Gu Lan Qing, her gaze landing on her black shirt. He softly said, "This will be the last time. I promise you, this will be the last time …" "I will never let you be bullied again …"

The vicious aura was faintly discernible in the scarlet light. It then fell on Tian Jianong's body.

Tian Jiangrong kept her head down.

"Yes, I believe you." Gu Lanqing's worried heart was finally at ease. She patted Ye Tang's back, indicating for him to let her go.

Ye Tang took a deep breath and gently pushed Gu Lanqing away. Lowering her head to look at her smiling face, he said softly, "Qingqing, I really like you."

"I like you a lot too." Gu Lan Qing smiled gently. She had heard Ye Tang say this more than twenty times.

He was an extremely straightforward boy, and she knew that Ye Tang was very dependent on her.

"It's not that I like you, but that I like you …" Ye Tang didn't want to endure it any longer. He had had enough of Gu Lanqing treating him as an insensible boy.

However, before he could fully express his feelings, Gu Lan Qing let go of him and hid him behind her back. She gripped his wrist so tightly that it was cold.

She was afraid.

What was she afraid of?

Ye Tang raised her gaze and stared at the man walking towards him. The man was tall and had a refined and elegant countenance.

It was him.

"Special assistance from Lu. Long time no see." Gu Lan Qing called out the man's name. It was none other than the top expert beside Huo Yan, Lu Lingfeng.

"Long time no see, Mrs. Huo." Lu Lingfeng smiled like a spring breeze.

"Mrs. Huo!" Tian JianRong and Ye Tang spoke at the same time.

Tian Jiayong lost control and asked, "Qingqing, do you really have to marry Huo Zichao? But, then why did his mother suppress you? "

Gu Lanqing did not turn around nor did she answer Tian JianRong's question. "What can I do for you, Lu Te?"

"Mrs. Howe, sir is waiting for you in the car. Please." Lu Lingfeng smiled. Naturally, he would not explain that the person Gu Lan Qing married was Huo Yan and not Huo Zichen.

Therefore, Gu Lanqing and Huo Yan were destined to be secretly married.

Huo Yan's malicious eyes flashed through Gu Lan Qing's mind — he wouldn't let her off so easily.

What was supposed to come could not be avoided.

She turned around and said to Ye Tang and Tian JianRong who were like wax statues, "You two return to the studio first. Little Tang, in the near future, no matter where we go, let Brother Liang follow us. "

Brother Liang, Liang Wenxiu.

The LAN studio was the work of both her and Liang Wenxiu. Liang Wenxiu had a wide range of connections and his thoughts were moving. Even Guan Minglie wouldn't be taken advantage of by Liang Wenxiu.

When she had finished, she headed for the eye-catching Dartz Prombron.

Huo Yan was inside.

Lu Lingfeng opened the door, and as expected, Gu Lan Qing saw Huo Yan sitting inside the car. His face was extremely handsome, and his thin lips were pressed into a straight line.

He looked restrained and cold.

How did it look like he had tied her to a steel pipe in a box last night, almost using brute force against her?

Gu Lanqing clenched her hands tightly on her thighs. She couldn't deny that she had a bone deep fear of this man who had ruined her life.

"Get on the carriage. For a despicable woman like you, touching you once is an insult to me." Huo Yan asked coldly.

"Hur hur. "Then it seems that you have insulted yourself to the extreme." Gu Lanqing suppressed her fear and mocked.

However, one thing that couldn't be denied was that his words were filled with contempt towards her. This made her feel reassured, knowing that he wouldn't touch her again.

She got on the carriage and sat opposite to Huo Yan.

With a pure face and a smile that was like flowers, she went straight to the point, "Boss Huo, you continue to insult yourself. Please don't waste your time and tell me your purpose in meeting me."

Huo Yan's thin lips curved into a straight line as he looked deeply at Gu Lanqing. She had changed after not having seen her for five years.

It didn't look like the pampered one from the past, and it didn't look like how it used to be five years ago.

She seemed to be smiling faintly all the time, as she had done last night.

That light smile was like an all-conquering mask that perfectly concealed her true emotions.

He really had the urge to take off her mask, even if he had to cry for her, he didn't care.

"Director Huo?" When Gu Lan saw that Huo Yan didn't say anything and was looking at her as if he wanted to eat her alive, he couldn't help but feel a bit scared. He couldn't help but cry out as he held his hand on the door, preparing to get out at any moment.

Huo Yan let out a cold snort. His eyes were so cold that they swept across her white fingers that had locked onto the door. "Stop pretending. You just want me to touch you again."

"If narcissism is a disease, then Boss Huo, you're already terminally ill." Gu Lan Qing smiled lightly. This carriage made her feel very uncomfortable. She went to push the door open and prepared to get off.

However, the door was already locked.

Panicking, Huo Yan said, "Ling Feng, drive." "Let's go to Gu Lanqing's residence."

"Why are you going to my residence?" Gu Lanqing was almost unable to contain her laughter, and appeared somewhat flustered.

"Take your ID card." Huo Yan looked at her back, which was pressed tightly against the door like a frightened rabbit. He felt an inexplicable sense of comfort, but even more so, some discomfort.

He didn't want to scare her anymore, so he threw a document at her lap. "Sign this."

The document hit the back of her hand, and the back of it was smacked red. She bit her lip and repressed the curse back into her throat — do not provoke the wrath of an animal that could lose its temper at any time.

Looking down at the document, she blinked and thought she was seeing things. "Is this really a divorce agreement?"
