The moment Huo Zizhen landed in America, she called Yun Shujing to inform her that she was safe. However, Huo Zizhen kept crying over the phone. This was because things were different now. In the past, she had come to the United States to spend money, to play, and to be superior. But now, she was running for her life.
When she walked out of the airport lobby, she felt that every face she saw was repulsive. She felt that everyone who looked at her was looking for her enemy. Thinking of the pain she had inflicted on the Little Miss of the Lei family, she tightened her hat a little. Until she saw a black man with braids in the crowd who was waiting to pick her up. He was holding a sign with the words âIâm jokingâ written on it. She immediately realized that it was Huo Weichenâs catchphrase, so she quickened her pace and went up to him.
After exchanging a few words cautiously, the other party showed her Huo Weichenâs contact information. In the end, Huo Zizhen was relieved and got into the other partyâs black business car with her luggage. The black man said that Huo Weichen had prepared a small villa for her so that she could temporarily settle down in the United States. At this moment, the princess who had fallen into the quagmire finally saw a glimmer of hope in the uncertain future.
It was already evening in the United States. When the black commercial vehicle passed through the bustling streets and drove to the suburbs, Huo Zizhenâs heart was lifted again. Fortunately, not long after, the car stopped at a villa complex. The black man opened the door for Huo Zizhen and escorted her to the entrance of the villa.
Looking at the warm light, Huo Zizhenâs heartbeat did not calm down. Until she saw a kind-looking middle-aged woman come out of the kitchen in an apron and warmly welcome her in.
It was only then that Huo Zizhen found out that Huo Weichen had arranged a maid for her.
The villa wasnât big and was purely American, but it had three floors. It was enough for a woman who lived alone.
After Huo Zizhen put down her luggage, she walked around every room in the villa. After making sure that there were no dangerous factors, she relaxed and washed up in the bathroom. While she was soaking in the bathtub, she received a WeChat message from Xing Guan.
âWhere are you? Iâm looking for you. Donât trust everyone in the Huo Family so easily, even if itâs your biological brother.â
Huo Zizhen snorted coldly, threw away her phone, and tilted her head back.
âIf I donât trust my own brother, do I trust you?
She hadnât forgotten that Lin Wanli had mentioned the relationship between Xing Guan and Su Xuanxuan. She had never forgotten how Su Xuanxuan had been sent to Malaysia. However, Xing Guan had also taken three bullets for her. Was it possible that Xing Guan had really fallen in love with her?
Of course, the princess, who had fallen into the quagmire, only dared to fantasize about it at this time, but if she really wanted to rely on Xing Guan, she would rather die than do so. The most important reason was that Xing Guan didnât have the ability to let her live a luxurious life. She was willing to be exiled abroad mainly because she believed that Huo Shengyuan would win in the end and cut Huo Jiuxiao into pieces, so that she could return home in glory. But what was there to Xing Guan?
At the thought of this, Huo Zizhen could only think of one word in her mind:
naive.
Was it because Xing Guan had taken advantage of the situation and thought that she would be willing to give herself to him just because she was in trouble?
Dream on.
Huo Zizhen soaked in the bathtub for half an hour. When she went downstairs, the maid had already prepared dinner, and it was a big table full of food. The maidâs explanation was that she did not know Huo Zizhenâs taste, so she had prepared some of each. Little did she know that this was Huo Weichenâs last mercy. He wanted his sister to die a full ghost.
In America, especially in certain areas, robberies and gunshots were common. Huo Weichen didnât even have to do much. He just had to tell the nearby bandits that a rich woman lived alone in a certain building. Then, many things would happen naturally.
In addition, the maid did not lock the doorâ¦
After Huo Zizhen finished eating, she went back to his room and locked the door. Since Huo Weichen had prepared all of this, she did not think too much about it. She was mentally exhausted and scared, so she fell into the double extremes of crazy drowsiness and being frightened. As soon as there was any movement, or as soon as there was any movement downstairs, she would carefully climb out of bed to confirm.
Huo Weichen wanted to make a move immediately, but after knowing Huo Zizhenâs state, he felt that it was very interesting and could keep her for another night.
Women had always been just objects to Huo Weichen. It didnât matter if this person was his biological sister or not. To him, it didnât matter at all. Since other women could bring him pleasure, then his biological sister could naturally do the same.
In Huo Weichenâs opinion, Huo Zizhenâs panic and fluster were too different from her usual arrogant state, so it was interesting. How great was that? Huo Zizhen, who looked down on every poor person equally, was now a pauper with nothing. Thinking of this, he had to thank Huo Jiuxiao. This tool was really useful.
He didnât feel like he was being targeted by a hunter. Instead, he felt like he was the oriole.
Because there were plenty of women who would fight for him.
When Lin Wanli and Huo Jiuxiao saw the Liu familyâs mother and son, Shen Changmei had just comforted them mentally. Otherwise, with the mother and sonâs courage, they would probably self-destruct before Director Liu could go to jail.
Logically speaking, Mrs. Liu had been on the Moon Breeze a few times and had seen many dirty things in the industry. She should not be so bold. However, when it came to her husband, the Stockholm syndrome was extremely powerful. She and Young Master Liu wanted to escape from Director Liuâs side and leave Jinzhou. After a night of brewing, this thought firmly occupied their hearts.
Therefore, the first thing Madam Liu said when she saw Huo Jiuxiao was, âEldest Young Master, thereâs no need to persuade us. Weâve already made up our minds to go. Weâve been waiting for you to come over. We just want to give you the evidence.â
Huo Jiuxiao took the yellow paper bag. He didnât open it and answered directly, âHave you ever thought that although the evidence in your hand can put him in jail, the final sentence might not even be five years? If he performs well in prison, his sentence can be reduced. Are you so sure that he wonât vent his anger on your son after he gets out of prison?â
This was an outcome that neither mother nor son had expected. Therefore, when they heard the word five years, they both knew that it was too little.
âI donât want to persuade you. I just feel sorry that you only have five years of
good life. â
Mrs. Liu thought carefully and was very afraid, and her back was cold.
However, Huo Jiuxiao didnât want to say anything more. He brought Lin Wanli and was about to turn around. At this time, Young Master Liu quickly stood up and went around Huo Jiuxiao to face him. âIâm⦠Iâm sorry, we seem to be too naive..â
