Chapter 8 Be My Woman

"Huo Yunshen..."

Shen Anmu finally couldn't take it anymore.

Su Weiwei, however, quickly pulled him back, "Anmu, didn't we make an appointment to choose our engagement rings? Let's go. We are about to be late."

She dragged Shen Anmu away without hearing what he had to say.

Shen Anmu was an illegitimate son of the Shen family who had just returned, so he didn't know how powerful Huo Yunshen was. But Su Weiwei knew that even ten Shen's Group combined were not worth half the Huo's Group.

Therefore, she would rather let this bitch, Gu Xiaonian, off the hook for now than offend Huo Yunshen, a horrible man!

Hmph! Who was Huo Yunshen? How could he fall for that bitch? He must could not be serious with her. After a few days, he would get tired of her and kick her off. She would settle the score with this woman by that time and revenge for the humiliation she had suffered today.

A trace of malice flashed across Su Weiwei's eyes.

"Huo... Boss Huo... No, my brother-in-law... I should thank you for the..."

Gu Xiaonian, who had taken two steps back, stammered. His face was so red that he wanted to bury his head in the sand.

The beautiful wedding dress was soddened with sweat and attached on her back.

However, she really did not expect that this man would cooperate with her actively and help her out.

Huo Yunshen took off his tuxedo and returned to his cold and distant expression, as if "Do not come close" were written on his face.

He said plainly, "No. This is nothing compared to the sacrifice you will make for Lixin next month."

Gu Xiaonian did not know how to react.

She knew that he was not being modest, but reminding her. No, he was warning her that she must meet him next month and she must not go back on her promise to him.

Suddenly she envied Huo Lixin - the woman she had never met yet.

Although Huo had been homeless and had suffered a lot during her childhood, while Gu was born the eldest daughter of the Gu family and was loved by her family... But what about now? Huo Lixin had a fiancé who loved her so much; but she, Gu Xiaonian, had ended up living alone in the world, isolated.

Out of the bridal shop, Huo Yunshen said, "I'll give you a ride!"

"No need!"

She instinctively refused, "My place is very close. I can walk back real soon."

"Okay."

He still didn't insist. His tone and expression were as cold and distant as ever.

It made Gu Xiaonian's chest choke for some reason. It seemed Huo Yunshen helping her out just now was just her wild daydream.

Seeing Huo Yunshen get into the car and leave, Gu Xiaonian received a text message.

She opened it casually. It was a multimedia message with a photo.

Seeing the photo, she was shocked and her entire body felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

And she almost dropped her phone.

It was a picture of her naked, sleeping soundly on the hotel bed.

Her first reaction was to think that Su Weiwei did this.

However, after a closer look, it wasn't the hotel she was staying at, and there was a bruise on her bare shoulder...

She snapped back to her senses.

It was that night! She was framed by Su Weiwei: Drugged and slept with another man.

That man was not Su Weiwei's person, which meant that he had sent this photo to her for some reason. Blackmail, perhaps.

Give me a break!

Her face was pale as she gripped her phone tightly.

Suddenly, another text message was received.

Her eyelashes fluttered as she opened it with a shiver.

She thought that the sender would text her how much he wanted, but it was another photo. A man in a police uniform was beaten so hard that his entire face was bruised and swollen. His legs were twisted and he was lying on the ground. Even if he was not dead, he's gotta be crippled.

She was confused. What did these two photos have to do with anything? Why did the this guy send her these photos?

Just as she was wondering, she suddenly thought of something and her heart pounded.

She quickly opened the photo again and took a closer look. Indeed, this police officer was the one that had tricked her the day she went to the police.

"..."

She was completely dumbfounded.

Soon the third message came.

This time, it was finally a written text.

"As long as you promise to be my lover, I guarantee that Su Weiwei will end up worse than him. If you refuse, I'll send a mass text of the the first photo to the media."

Gu Xiaonian almost threw her phone away.

She replied with trembling fingers in anger, "Who are you?"

The sender replied quickly, "I'll only give you three days to think about it."

She typed quickly, "I don't need your help... Also, delete these photos quickly. Otherwise, I'll call the police and sue you for extortion."

She didn't know if she had succeeded or what, but the sender didn't reply.

Gu Xiaonian gradually calmed down and realized something.

How did the sender know that she had a grudge against Su Weiwei? She was the only one who knew Su Weiwei's true colors because she had never found any evidence.

But then she recalled that when Su Weiwei had framed her, this man happened to "get a bargain" at the hotel. He must be talking about this.

She was overthinking it.

When she returned to the hotel, she sat there in a daze for a really long time.

Today she went to see a lawyer who said she had better leave Yunhai city, considering things were going against her. In any case, as long as she didn't sign the agreement, Su Weiwei wouldn't be able to obtain the shares and property of the company.

Not finding her will definitely make Su Weiwei very anxious. In that case, Su would accidentally reveal her flaws. When that time came, Gu Xiaonian would have gradually gained strength and come back to deal with Su Weiwei.

With her mind made up, Gu Xiaonian could not wait any longer but started packing and was preparing to leave that day.

However, just as she was about to leave with her luggage, she suddenly received a call.

She was completely dumbfounded.

The next second, she threw her luggage away and rushed out of the door anxiously...

An hour ago, at the cemetery.

A shabby van stopped and a few tall and sturdy men got out of the car. They were wearing masks and carrying huge hammers as they walked towards Gu Xiaonian's mother's grave.

Without a word, they pushed down the tombstone, swung the large hammers, and smashed the thick tombstone into pieces...

After the violence was over, they deliberately dropped the sledgehammer on the ground and ran away in a car.

The cemetery keeper called Gu Xiaonian, and she couldn't believe her ears.

She took a taxi to the cemetery and saw her mother's broken tombstone from a distance... She paused and suddenly pounced on it crazily.

The ground was littered with fragments of tombstones, and her fingers were trembling violently as she put them together one by one.

"Ah..."

Suddenly, as if she had gone mad, she clenched her fists and punched the concrete floor heavily and repeatedly.

Her blood flew down yet she didn't feel any pain.

"Su Weiwei! I am gonna kill you! I am gonna kill you..."

Her eyes were so red that she looked like a devil.
