sion unreadable in the dim light. He only said quietly, “Get up.”"I'm going to sleep, Mr. Huo can bear with it if he still wants anything. I have to work tomorrow, no, during the day."She stubbornly g...She has nothing to do with it from beginning to end.

These were nothing, but when Qin Heng said that Huo Mingzheng did all this for the project, for her, Fu Yan could no longer hold onto the dream she had woven herself.

Qin Heng's "she" is not Fu Yan.

Fu Yan was very clear.

The door stood silent and still, as if no one had ever come here before.

In the office, Qin Heng was completely speechless after being questioned by Huo Mingzheng. "Fine, I won't ask, okay You're saying Fu Yan has a bad temper, but with your temper, anyone who likes you must be blind."

"You'd actually get mad at someone as cute as Fu Yan!"

"Cute" Huo Mingzheng's brows furrowed.

Qin Heng said generously, "What's wrong with being cute She's also pretty, has a good figure, is hardworking and ambitious, she's full of advantages."

For every advantage he listed, Huo Mingzheng's face darkened by a degree, until finally it was as dark as ink could be. "You're the one who's blind," he said.

Leaving these words behind, Huo Mingzheng turned and left the office. Just as he opened the door, he saw his suit jacket on the chair by the entrance.

He picked up his coat, his eyes as dark as twilight.

The next morning, Qin Heng came to check on Fu Yan. He found her complexion even worse than yesterday. "Didn't you sleep well"

The doctor can't hide it. Fu Yan nodded, "A little insomnia."

"You slept too much during the day, it's understandable. Try to adjust your sleep today as much as possible, it will help with your recovery." Qin Heng instructed the nurse to record, then flipped through the lab results again.

"You will be able to leave the hospital tomorrow."

Fu Yan ate a little something and, with the help of a nurse, got out of bed to move around. She was much better than yesterday and didn't need any assistance to walk.

Even during her break time, she didn't sleep. She turned on the TV and saw the news of the Ho family and Fu family's engagement, a grand engagement banquet held at a hotel.

Then it hit her, today was Fu Jinghe and Huo Jingshu's engagement.

He knew from the beginning she couldn't go, so he intentionally provoked her questions. He wanted to tell her that Fu Jing was getting engaged and to give up on him.

Thinking of the man who didn't love her but wanted to control her, Fu Yan only felt like a joke.

The phone on the bedside table rang, it was a strange number, no caller ID, and it didn't look like a domestic number.

She hung up the phone, and it rang again immediately.

Fu Yan hesitated for a few seconds, then pressed the phone to her ear.

"Fuyan! I'm going to kill you!" A hysterical roar came from the other end of the phone. The voice was hoarse and rough, she hadn't heard it at first, but reacted a few seconds later.

She tentatively asked, "Are you Shen Wei"

Shen Wei hid in a corner of the hotel. She had just taken her eighth shower, but there was still a smell on her body. The scent of those men made her nauseous. No matter how hard she scrubbed, she couldn't get rid of it. Her throat was hoarse and dry and painful.

It's all thanks to Fu Yan! "Are you proud of yourself You think you've won, don't you Fu Yan, I tell you, I haven't lost to you. What are you, do you really think Huo Mingzheng likes you"

She rambled, her words disjointed as if something had shaken her. "I didn't intend to beat you. You treated me like a rival from the start, Shen Wei, this is all your own doing."

"Do you dare to admit that you have no ulterior motives Do you dare to admit that you sabotaged my engagement with Huo Mingzheng without any selfish intentions You do, you just don't want to see me engaged to Huo Mingzheng!"

Shen Wei chuckled, "But Fu Yan, what's the point of doing this Do you think Huo Mingzheng likes you No, you should know better than me who he likes. You only resemble that person in a few ways."

She whispered, venomously, “You’re just a stand-in.”Only then did she remember that today was the twenty-fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, the day when the Huo family paid their respects to their ancestors.All the men have gone to the ancestral hal...
