Chapter 1361 - 1361 Humble Pleas
1361 Humble Pleas
Everyone looked at each other and understood what they were thinking.
Looking at Guan Hui’s unwilling and angry expression, Qiao Xi smiled in satisfaction, then turned to look at Gu Zheng. “Ah Zheng, I don’t want to see her.”
Gu Zheng replied gently, then instructed, “Song Shijing, please get Mrs. Huo to leave.”
“Yes, President!” Song Shijing hurried to Guan Hui. “Madam Huo, our young madam doesn’t want to see you. She hopes you can leave immediately and never appear in front of her again.”
!!
“Yuzhou!” Guan Hui blushed awkwardly and looked at Huo Yuzhou anxiously.
If she was really chased out, how could she establish herself in Y Nation in the future?
Guan Hui panicked. “Y-Yuzhou, I’m your woman. If they chase me out, you’ll lose your dignity too! Xi Xi, I misunderstood you. I already know my mistake. I hope you can forgive me on the account of our past relationship.”
At this moment, Guan Hui lowered her head as sweat dripped down her face. She had spent a lot of effort to attend the banquet with Yuzhou and made everyone think that she was the legitimate Mrs. Huo. If she was really chased out, everything she wanted would disappear.
All these years, she had always known what Huo Yuzhou was thinking. He only liked Qiao Xi and had never liked another woman. He kept her by his side for the sake of making Qiao Xi jealous. For the sake of provoking Qiao Xi into returning to his side, he did not even stop her even if she spread rumors that she was Mrs. Huo.
Guan Hui begged humbly, “Yuzhou, I’m yours…”
Qiao Xi was suddenly in the mood for a prank. “Mr. Huo, if you beg me, I’ll forgive Mrs. Huo and not chase her out.”
Guan Hui’s eyes lit up as she stared at Huo Yuzhou.
Huo Yuzhou raised his eyes slightly, but his deep eyes were filled with coldness. Guan Hui’s expression instantly stiffened. Why should she be embarra.s.sed in front of Qiao Xi? What right did Qiao Xi have to always be high and mighty while she had to beg for the love and sympathy of others?
She could not be chased away. Absolutely not!
“Yuzhou…” Guan Hui’s voice trembled.
Huo Yuzhou’s gaze was slightly cold. Everyone thought that Mr. Huo would plead for leniency. After all, Mrs. Huo was his fiancee. If she lost her reputation, it would affect Mr. Huo too.
Guan Hui also thought that Huo Yuzhou would not refuse. As long as he could make her stay with just one sentence, he had no reason to refuse! Moreover, she was Mrs. Huo. Huo Yuzhou could not be so heartless in front of everyone!
After a moment of silence, Huo Yuzhou’s expression was cold as he said word by word, “She’s not my wife. Whether she stays or leaves is up to you.”
The surroundings instantly fell silent, and everyone stopped breathing.
‘Whether she stays or leaves is up to you?’
Guan Hui looked up abruptly, her eyes filled with disbelief.
“Yuzhou!”
Shame, anger, and unwillingness mixed together, making Guan Hui break down.
Huo Yuzhou frowned. Obviously, he no longer had the patience to continue arguing with this woman. He slowly raised his eyes and looked at Qiao Xi, who was not far away. His lips moved. “Xi Xi.”
Qiao Xi’s eyes were slightly disdainful. “Mr. Huo, we’re not familiar with each other. Please call me ‘Mrs. Gu’ in the future and don’t talk to me, lest someone says that I seduced a married man.”
Everyone’s gazes landed on Guan Hui. Her face was ashen, and her teeth were chattering. She said with difficulty, “Yuzhou, I… I beg you. I can’t be chased out. You… Let me stay.”
At this moment, the bodyguards had already come forward and wanted to pull Guan Hui away. Huo Yuzhou’s expression was slightly complicated as he looked at Qiao Xi. “You know what Lil Hui’s character is like. Why bicker with her?”
Qiao Xi chuckled. She suddenly recalled something. Guan Hui said that Huo Yuzhou burned the library for her. Since Guan Hui wanted to show off so badly, she really could not just let it end like this.
“That’s right! This isn’t the first time she’s provoked me. Logically speaking, I should be used to it. No matter what, she’s Mr. Huo’s woman. It won’t be good if we really chase her out.”
Qiao Xi smiled a little wantonly and gestured for the bodyguards to let go. Guan Hui’s entire body went soft, and she almost fell to the floor. She looked at Huo Yuzhou with red eyes.
“Ah Zheng, let’s go.” Qiao Xi did not even bother to look at them. She held Gu Zheng’s hand, and the two of them turned to leave.
Huo Yuzhou, who was standing on the spot, stared at Qiao Xi’s and Gu Zheng’s interlocked hands with a burning gaze. The man’s wide palm wrapped Qiao Xi’s weak and fair little hand. The man lowered his eyes and smiled dotingly at his wife. The two of them looked so compatible.
