Start with a show of strength

  The ghost is coming to attack

  Last night, after picking up the drunk Huo Xiaojiu, I still couldn't sleep well. Because Huo Xiaoran was in my room all night, I was afraid that something like last time would happen again, so I spent almost the whole night with my eyes wide open, out of fear!

  After breakfast, I went to the company with Xiaoma. It was obvious that Xiaoma still had a grudge against what happened that day, and she was cold-faced. I became a lost pet, and Xiaoma didn't even say a word to me.

  Watching Xiaoma press the button on the top floor, I didn't ask, just followed. When we got out of the elevator, Xiaoma didn't say a word and left by herself. I looked at the reception desk not far away and let out a long sigh, could only go there.

  "Hello!" I smiled at the beautiful woman standing inside, really feeling very humble, my height was not only half a head shorter than hers.

  "Hello! Who are you looking for?" The beautiful woman smiled professionally, wearing a fitting short skirt and a name tag around her neck, slightly leaning forward towards me.

  Looking at that beautifully painted face, I felt a sense of defeat once again. After a long while, I finally said: "Ah, I...I am Mo Xiaoya!" As soon as I finished speaking awkwardly, the smile on the receptionist's face froze.

  "Ah? Oh! Yes! This way, your office is this way!"

  She led the way in front, and I followed closely behind. Huoxi is a large cosmetics production and sales company with many sub-brands under its umbrella. The most famous one is Hotday, which produces limited-edition products that are almost all luxury goods sought after by high-society ladies.

  Of course, I had only seen him on TV a few times before, and now that I'm at the Hos' place, it's really unbelievable.

  The office is very large, even luxurious. After the receptionist closed the door, I heard a commotion outside. I knew it was because of my arrival. After all, someone like me sitting in this place is quite out of place.

  Early in the morning, I was almost sitting here in a daze, with no one bringing any business over. Actually, I also knew that those things were sent to Xiaoyun Lian's place, which is good, and I'm happy to be carefree!

  "Is it interesting for one person to sit here?" His cold voice came over, I wasn't surprised.

  I looked at him sitting on the sofa and also smiled coldly: "How interesting, although wearing dragon robes doesn't make you look like a prince, but at least I've worn it once, right?"

  "How interesting!" His tone sounded like he was watching a play, expecting and despising! It's quite contradictory, isn't it? When I turned my face to look at him, he had actually disappeared.

  I thought it would be quiet, but in just a few minutes, Yun Li arrived, with someone behind her carrying a stack of files. Without knocking on the door, Yun Li led the person in, almost bursting in.

  "Take a look at these. If there's no problem, then sign them!" Yun Li waved her hand and the people behind her put all the files on the desk in front of me, a thick stack!

  "What's this?" I looked at Yun Lian in confusion. I had clearly expressed my stance before and told her that I didn't want to get involved with the Huo family, and she seemed quite happy about it back then. What was going on today?

  Yun Li didn't even glance at me, flicking her hair as she said, "I heard An Xiang promised to help you, so these are your responsibilities!" Before I could react, she led the others away.

  Looking at the thing in front of me, I was stunned. Did An Xiang come to find me yesterday? How is that possible? The third floor is almost a place where no one will go up, and except for me, there's only that dead ghost in the house. Could it be that An Xiang told her? No matter how I think about this, it's like a puzzle, can't figure it out, can't guess through.

  But the thing in front of me... I know, Yun Li is showing off to me, telling me that whether it's at home or at the Huo family, she has the final say. I didn't even bother to flip through those things, and with great difficulty, I picked them up and left the 'door', asking for directions along the way until I arrived at Xiaoma's office door.

  I knocked on the "door" until there was a response inside, then I pushed it open and put the folder on the tea machine next to me. I smiled helplessly: "Little mom, Auntie did find me yesterday, but I knew I was just a decoration." After seeing the triumphant look on Yun Lian's face, I let out a long sigh of relief in my heart.

  "It's not that I'm making things difficult for you, but that woman An Xiang, you'd better stay away from her. Don't believe a word she says, her heart is darker than you can imagine, got it?"

  I nodded, seeing the rare smile on her face, I thought she was in a good mood. As they say, strike while the iron is hot, I accompanied with a smile and asked: "Little mom, staying at the Ho's house is useless for me, I don't know when..."

  "Don't worry about it!" She impatiently interrupted me and waved her hand, indicating that I could leave. Helpless, I had no choice but to retreat for the time being.

  "Look! That's the legendary Mo Xiaoya!"

  "Wow, I didn't expect there's actually someone like this, it's too rare!"

  "Shh!"

  As I walked by, their gaze was still on me, although uncomfortable, but what could I say? The company has a cafeteria at noon, but I didn't go because I didn't want to go to crowded places again. In the afternoon, I also didn't plan to go back. It's been a long time since I've been out for a stroll. For me, Huo's house is no different from a prison.

  Walking aimlessly on the street, I saw a familiar figure. It wasn't anyone else but Chen Ningrui, that woman who had run to my house and caused trouble the other day, supposedly carrying Ho Shuangyan's child. In just a few days, her belly seemed to have grown even bigger than before.

  She stopped in her tracks, watching as she walked into the roadside café. I was just curious, hadn't come to a sudden reaction, and even more puzzling things happened right before my eyes - An Xiang's car! It turned and stopped at the parking lot next door.

  "What a coincidence?" I muttered.

  "Do you think it's just a coincidence?"

  The sudden voice startled me, and this is a big road with many people, but the guy just stood beside me without any restraint.

  I glanced at him and whispered, "She's got your child in her belly!" I pretended to lower my head and rummaged through the bag, afraid that others would think I was crazy.

  "Is that so?" He smiled coldly, his eyes gazing into the distance. After a long while, he spoke again: "Let me advise you, in the Huo household, it's better for you to choose to believe me. As for An Chong and Yun Li, no matter what you do, you'll never be able to win them over."

  In my eyes, no one in the Huo family is a thrifty lamp, but why did that focal point of fire just happen to be on me, this is what I resent the most.

  They say that enemies are bound to meet, and this time I really believe it. The car in front of me is none other than Hao Xiaoji's! And sitting in the passenger seat is a seductive beauty with an incredibly deep cleavage.

  "What? Become an abandoned little dog?" Huo Xiaoqi took off his sunglasses, looked at me, and the corners of his mouth were raised.

  "Get out!"

  Looking at that face, my temper just can't be helped. He's having a fever and I'm still taking care of him so carefully. Wasn't I sick that day? This hateful person should have been left to die from his illness long ago!

  "Who is this, actually daring to show a cold face to Lord Ho? Truly ignorant of life and death!" The woman's snow-white soft arm stroked onto Huo Xiaoqi's shoulder, the bright red lips emitting a voice that could make people feel numb to their bones.

  I just took a glance at the scene inside, shook my head and glanced sideways at Huo Xiao Ran beside me, didn't say anything, and directly chose to ignore it. Compared to Huo Xiao Quan, this ghost beside me is much more lovely, at least he doesn't make me feel disgusted!

  In front of him, the car door was opened and Huo Xiaoqi commanded: "Get out!"

  "What's wrong?" The woman's voice rose a few degrees, staring at me discontentedly, while I just raised an eyebrow, what's it to me?

  Until Hu Xiaoqi got out of the car himself, he pulled out the "woman" on the passenger seat with one hand, and then I was scared back several steps. Before I could react, I was stuffed into the car by him.

  "What's wrong with you!" I bellowed, trying to open the car door.

  Just in the next second, the rapidly passing buildings in front of me made me tense up and grab the handle on the "door"!

  "You're crazy! I don't want to die yet!" He was driving too fast, the car weaving in and out of traffic, every time he overtook another vehicle, my heart almost jumped out of my throat.

  In the end, I could only close my eyes and scream loudly until the screeching sound of brakes came, and on my face, I felt his breath. When I opened my eyes, that face with zero distance from mine made me scream again.

  "Go away! What do you want to do?" I pushed his body, trying to pull some distance.

  I originally thought he would make an impolite move, but unexpectedly, that unorthodox face of his was unusually serious at this moment. He stared at me for a long time without moving his body, until he asked in a low voice: "What is your true purpose for entering the Ho family?"

  I was stunned for a moment, what's my destination?

  "Don't think I don't know, my brother doesn't even recognize you! What a month ago they were already married, that's impossible, Yun Lian can deceive everyone, but she can't deceive me!"

  "Are you crazy?!" I used all my strength to push him away, that face, I really wanted to 'slap' him awake!

  "Do you think I'm willing to enter the Huo family? I was bought by Yun Lian! Do you know that? Bought! And my only goal is to leave the Huo family!" I almost shouted out the words.

  Seeing the disbelief on his face, I became even angrier. Is the Hao family that great? Does everyone want to come in? He's also too self-righteous.

  "If I could, I'd leave right now, immediately! This instant! I never want to go back to that prison again, never want to see her face again!" And what's more, there's this madman who comes into my room every night and makes a ruckus! In the end, I didn't say these words out loud.

  He smiled coldly and said after scanning me with his eyes: "Don't say it as if someone has tied a rope around you."

  I was thoroughly infuriated by him, my face burning red with rage, and I bellowed: "Let me tell you, He Xiaoji, if it weren't for Yunli wanting to help me, without her consent, I wouldn't be allowed to leave! If she hadn't used the He family's power to threaten me, I would have left long ago! Do you really think the He family is something to be trifled with? Mo Xiaoya doesn't care about that!"

  And he just looked at me with a surprised face, and never spoke again...
