Xiao Huaixing had arranged a press conference for Wen Lan, intending to settle the matter all at once. Wen Lan had been obedient to him all these years. Since he had decided to protect Wen Lan, Xiao Huaixing would be more thorough and remove Wen Lan from his world completely.

Wen Lan had been absent-minded ever since she returned home from the hotel. She could only hear her assistant’s voice buzzing in her ear like an annoying mosquito.

“Wen Lan, what’s going on between you and President Xiao? He just announced the news of his marriage and also explained the ins and outs of his relationship with you. However, shouldn’t he confirm your identity and prove that your first wife is a mistress? But why did he say that you didn’t know about all of this? He hid the matter of marriage and continued to be in a relationship with you? What is he trying to do?”

Wen Lan was shocked when she finally finished listening to her assistant’s words. She did not expect Xiao Huaixing to decide to protect her at such a critical moment.

Wen Lan was touched, but she was terrified when she thought of Huo Yu’an.

“Everyone is calling him a scumbag now and sympathizing with you for wasting eight years of your youth. Tianlang has prepared a press conference for you. It’s at two in the afternoon. President Xiao has sent the prepared manuscript over and asked you to memorize it quickly.”

At this moment, Wen Lan looked troubled. She asked her assistant, “If it was you, would you choose to survive on your own or to stand with your lover?”

The assistant glanced at her and knew that she was in a dilemma. “Do you have a chance of success?” he asked.

“Not even a bit.” Wen Lan shook her head.

“Then what do you plan to do?”

“Let me think about it.” Wen Lan’s heart was in a mess because the more Xiao Huaixing cared for her, the more she could not take in the script that she had to memorize.

What should she do?

On the other side, at the Qiushan Hot Springs Zen Temple.

Xu Qingru had been video-chatting the entire night. She finally woke up for breakfast, but as soon as she opened the door, she was blocked by two tall men.

“May I know who you are looking for?”

Soon, Lin Wanli received a call from Xu Qingru. However, the voice that came from the phone was a female voice.

“Lin Wanli, you’ve fought so hard that there’s no one left in your family, so I can only look for your subordinate. His name is quite nice, but it’s a little old. I heard that he seems to be very important to your lousy company. If you don’t want me to chop off my hands and stomp my feet on him, then you’d better run faster.”

Huo Zizhen thought that Lin Wanli would be anxious. However, Lin Wanli did not panic at all. She sent a photo to Xu Qingru’s phone and said, “Let’s take a look at the news first.”

Huo Zizhen opened the WeChat page and saw the photo that Lin Wanli had sent. Her expression changed immediately.

“I can destroy my family. Do you think I care about a subordinate’s hands and feet? You can do whatever you want, because only then can I release the news of you without any scruples. After all, I was a little guilty at first.”

‘You…”

“So, Miss Huo, can we sit down and talk properly now? After all, I’m your future sister-in-law.”

After Huo Zizhen picked up the call, she threw the phone back to Xu Qingru and asked the bodyguards to let him go.

Soon, she saw Lin Wanli in the hotel lobby.

In fact, Lin Wanli had been waiting here for a long time.

“You do have some ability. Tell me, what method did you use to obtain my personal privacy?

Lin Wanli picked up the teacup and took a sip. “Is this important?” She asked.

“Don’t tell me you think you can use this to threaten me for the rest of my life?” Huo Zizhen crossed her arms and asked laughingly, “Lin Wanli, you’re very bold. You’re indeed not afraid of death.”

“Your father wants me to marry into the Huo family, but Huo Jiuxiao doesn’t like me. I know my life will be very difficult, so of course I have to form an alliance for myself. Otherwise, how can I settle down in the Huo family?”

After hearing Lin Wanli’s words, Huo Zizhen laughed out loud and almost cried. “You think I look like your ally? How dare you?”

“You really don’t look like my ally. Actually, I’m quite resistant to ugliness. I’m also more willing to treat the photo in my hand as my ally.” Lin Wanli used her strength to fight back. “I know you have a circle of shareholders’ family members. As long as you help me integrate into this circle, I’ll return all the photos.”

Huo Zizhen scoffed coldly and sized up Lin Wanli. Because of this matter, it became very interesting.

“You? You want to blend into my circle?”

“I have to try my best to make myself look useful to Huo Jiuxiao.” Lin Wanli replied.

This time, Huo Zizhen seemed to have heard a joke again. After laughing for a few minutes, she nodded. “If this is your condition for the exchange, fine. I can create opportunities for you. However, whether you can integrate or not depends on your own ability.”

“Lin Wanli, you’re more naive than I thought. Don’t blame me for not warning you. In the eyes of those noble ladies, you might not even be as good as the dog in their arms. However, there’s no other way. This is decided by your background. It’s not your fault.”

“It’s okay. They’ve all admitted the identity of an illegitimate daughter.

Moreover, I will arrange the time and place.”

Huo Zizhen looked at Lin Wanli seriously as if she was already looking at Lin Wanli’s corpse.

This future sister-in-law’s ability to anger people was actually as good as Huo Jiuxiao’s.

“Alright, let’s wait and see. We have a lot of fun.”

Huo Zizhen really came out to relax and wanted to bully this legendary sister-in-law. However, she did not expect her to be even angrier than when she was in the Huo family.

She hadn’t been this angry in a long time.

So much so that when she left the temple, she wished she could kill everyone here to liven things up.

Lin Wanli watched Huo Zizhen leave and felt disdain for this ugly person.

However, it was this ugly person who had worked with her lover to set Master Xiao up time and time again in recent years. So, Huo Zizhen, your misfortune has only just begun.

Huo Zizhen thought that Lin Wanli had taken a fancy to her social circle because Huo Zizhen’s biggest capital was the support of the shareholders’ wives. Don’t underestimate this power. Sometimes, pillow talk could cause a tsunami.

But in fact, Lin Wanli didn’t even look up to those rich ladies who liked to hug dogs.

Among the Huo Corporation’s shareholders, there were also some independent and strong women who disdained Huo Zizhen’s cliques. Lin Wanli really liked these people. What she wanted was to break the unbreakable relationship between these rich ladies and destroy all the chips in Huo Zizhen’s hands.

Wasn’t it ironic that a woman who had no respect for life wanted to control a top-notch medical group?

Huo Zizhen didn’t care. It was good to let Lin Wanli in. Because this way, Lin Wanli would soon know what color the door to hell was..
