"But …" Duan Wenzhuo still wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't.

When Tang Hongbo went downstairs, he saw that Old Man Tang's expression was even worse. He took off the jacket of his suit, and looked much less cold.

"Hmph, let me ask you, what's with Duan Wenzhuo?" Old Man Tang asked with a gloomy face.

"Alright, let's not talk about her first. Tell me, do you know the consequences of what you said at the royal ball? Do you think that the Sima Clan is like Sima Yun? " Old Man Tang snorted and asked.

"Of course I know, but so what? The Sima family has already stayed in A City for too long. It's time for them to give up their position." Tang Hongbo said calmly.

Old Man Tang's expression froze.

"What do you mean? Do you know what you're talking about? " Old Man Tang's tone did not seem to be very good.

"Enough, stop pretending. I know that you and grandfather once wanted to buy the Sima family. Don't tell me that now that I've completed the unfinished business for you and grandfather, I should be happy." Tang Hongbo indifferently explained.

"You, don't you know the seriousness of this situation? In all these years, we didn't overthrow the Sima family. Just with your purchase, they, the company, dare to say such words?" Old Man Tang said hatefully.

"Buying one is obviously not a big deal, so in my next plan, I will buy two more companies, three more, four more, until the Sima family disappears from this city." Tang Hongbo snorted.

Looking at his determined eyes, Old Man Tang knew that in these past few years, he had already become a decisive and ruthless person.

Old Man Tang sighed in the end. What else could he say to his only son?

Tang Hongbo suddenly shifted his gaze. Duan Wenyu, who had been standing quietly behind Old Man Tang the entire time.

"Now it's time to talk about you." As Tang Hongbo said this, he stood up and walked over to Duan Wenyu's side.

"Hongbo, you, what are you doing? Why are you looking at me like that?" Duan Wenyu was a little guilty, her gaze erratic.

"I just want to ask, are you shameless, or do you have no face at all, were you given the right to do so, who made you call yourself Mrs. Tang in front of so many reporters?" Tang Hongbo asked with a stern expression.

Upon hearing this, Duan Wenyu's face paled. He knew that Tang Hongbo would look for her, but he did not expect it to happen so quickly.

"Hongbo, what are you saying? I was the one who told her to do that. If it wasn't for her, the reporters would have asked her for more details today. "She helped you this time. Instead of thanking her, you instead blamed her. What kind of logic is that?" Old Man Tang said.

"Help me, I can't see it at all, and besides, who told you to decide on your own accord, I have long since told you, my wife will always be Duan Wenzhuo, and this will be the last time. The next time, you should be prepared to apologize to the entire Duan Clan, Wenzhuo." Tang Hongbo heavily snorted.

"Hongbo, is this how you treat me? In the past, you have never been strict with me because of a woman. Hongbo, could it be that in your heart, other than Duan Wenzhuo, there is no one else? It's been two years, and I've finally returned to your side. How could you do this to me? Even if our marriage contract is annulled, don't tell me that we don't even have friends anymore? " Duan Wenyu complained as tears streamed down her face.

"You're right, right, right, right now there's only Wenzhuo in my heart. Two years, do you really plan on asking me to tell you the truth about your disappearance back then?" Tang Hongbo looked at her with ice-cold eyes.

Hearing that, Duan Wenzhuo's face suddenly changed, and subconsciously met Tang Hongbo's eyes, but she quickly avoided them.

"You, what do you mean?" Duan Wenyu suddenly panicked in his heart. Could it be that he already knew everything?

"Hongbo, what do you mean by that? Didn't Wenyu go missing back then? Is there anything else? " Old Man Tang asked.

"No, how could there be a hidden story? Uncle, I really went missing that year, and didn't I lose my memories? I came back not long ago, Hongbo knows about all of this, right? Hongbo. " Duan Wenyu anxiously explained.

But Tang Hongbo looked at her with eyes filled with disgust. He did not oppose her words, nor did he agree with her.

"Hongbo, I don't care about your young people's matters, but seeing your attitude towards Wenyu, I still have to say it. Although you're currently marrying his younger sister, but logically speaking, you're still the one who should take responsibility for her, but as for her, not only did she not care about it, she even ignored her own reputation and went to help you in today's situation. Not only are you not grateful, you even blamed her, what do you think a man should look like this?" Old Man Tang suddenly rebuked.

"Is that so? Say I have her, okay, I would like to ask her, has she done it to her or to me? Duan Wenyu, two years ago... "

"Uncle, it's very late today. Hongbo has been tormenting himself for an entire day, so it's about time for him to rest. How about we go first and come back another day?" Duan Wenyu suddenly interrupted Tang Hongbo and said to him.

"Alright, but I still want to say something. I'll have to trouble you to not keep an eye on that Mrs. Tang or whatever, and not always disappear at the most crucial moment. I don't want to see anything like this happen again today." Just as Old Man Tang was about to leave, he suddenly shouted a reminder.

"Don't worry, I don't want to see this kind of situation any more than you do." Tang Hongbo replied expressionlessly.

Old Man Tang sighed, he turned around and with the support of the butler, he got on the carriage and left.

Watching the car drive away from his line of sight, Tang Hongbo originally wanted to turn around and go up the stairs, but he was stopped by Duan Wenyu who held out his hand.

Tang Hongbo looked at her.

"He still hasn't left? What do you want? " Tang Hongbo asked with a bad tone.

"Hongbo, you, you just said that two years ago, did you know something?" Duan Wenyu asked with a bit of guilt.

Tang Hongbo took a step back and smiled playfully, but there was no trace of a smile in his eyes.

"Why are you feeling guilty?"

Duan Wenyu braced herself, and said with a resolute expression.

"What, what do I have to feel guilty about? I'm just asking out of curiosity."

"Well, what do you think I should know?" Tang Hongbo said coldly.

Duan Wenyu suddenly pretended to be relaxed.

"I'm just casually asking. It's fine, I'll be leaving first, please send my regards to Wenzhuo." Duan Wenyu said as she turned around and left.

But the words of Tang Hongbo behind her, without missing a word, entered her ears.

"If you don't want to be embarrassed, and don't want me to expose your lies in front of others, then please stay away from Wenzhuo next time. Also, she doesn't need you to say hello." Tang Hongbo said with his back facing her, so he did not see the anger in her eyes when she turned around.

Every time he spoke up for Duan Wenzhuo, she hated her a little.

With tears in her eyes, she left the Tang clan late at night.

When Tang Hongbo returned to his room, he realized that Duan Wenzhuo had already changed out of the clothes he was wearing. He slowly walked towards her, with her back facing him.

He went up and hugged her from behind.

"Wenzhuo, why aren't you asleep yet?" There was a deep weariness in his voice, and she knew he must be tired.

However, when he saw that she was standing right in front of him, holding her in her arms, he felt that everything was worth it, that all his worries were all gone.

No one would understand his mood during the day. Deep fear swept over him like a storm without any warning.

However, after going through the baptism of the storm, everything would be the best. He also believed that he and Duan Wenzhuo would continue to walk forward.

"What's wrong with you? Are you very tired? Has dad left?" Duan Wenzhuo thought for a moment, then asked.

"Let's go." Tang Hongbo still hugged her without letting go, sticking to her body like a child.

"Boss Tang Judge, if your subordinates knew that you were like this, your heroic name would be ruined." Duan Wenzhuo suddenly ridiculed.

"If it's ruined, then so be it. Compared to destroying my heroic name, I want to hug you even more." Tang Hongbo said.

Duan Wenzhuo was helpless, she still carried her in her arms.

"Oh right, what surprise did you say you were going to give me today?" Duan Wenzhuo suddenly thought of this.

When Tang Hongbo heard this, his expression turned ugly. He had prepared meticulously for this marriage proposal and was forced to stop before it could even be seen. He had yet to give out his pleasant surprise, so he felt uncomfortable in his heart.

"What's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything? " Duan Wenzhuo asked.

"Nothing, I'm just not ready yet. I'll tell you next time, I'll tell you next time." Tang Hongbo said indifferently.

"What?" Duan Wenzhuo had been waiting for an entire day, but in the end, she was only able to get this answer.

Duan Wenzhuo felt that she had experienced more this day than she had in the past year, or even a few years.

In the end, she fell asleep in Tang Hongbo's arms while still in a daze.

The moonlight was bright, shining from behind the white curtain onto the smooth floor of the room, shining onto the person lying on the bed. Although the day was very tiring and he really wanted to sleep, Hongbo still quietly got out of bed and tried his best not to disturb the people lying on the bed.

He suddenly picked up the jacket that was placed on the sofa. Then, he stretched out his hand and pulled out a box from the pocket of his suit.

He opened it to the moonlight, and the diamond in the box shone with a brilliant light. Even in this darkness, even if there was only a tiny bit of moonlight, it would still give off a beautiful glow.

It was just like his wife. Although she was not eye-catching, she emitted a gentleness that made him unable to shift his gaze away.
