Ke Wenjie's self-esteem was shattered by Hua Rongxiao, trampled underfoot and crushed. He felt like a slimy loach, sticky and unpleasant.
Hua Rongxiao reveled in the feeling of controlling others; to put it bluntly, she enjoyed being on high ground, feeling superior. She believed that since she provided Ke Wenjie with the best material life, he should obediently act as her watchdog. After all, not everyone could live a life where they were above others.
Watching Ke Wenjie tremble with anger, she walked into the living room and softened her tone slightly. "What I said earlier was harsh, but it was the truth. Whether you acknowledge it or not, the objective facts exist, and you cannot deny them."
She turned and sat down in a chair, stating plainly, "I will not let you leave. Don't even think about it. Why would you want to leave this place? Are you trying to go against money for no reason?"
Ke Wenjie was thoroughly disgusted by Hua Rongxiao's hypocritical facade. "You ask me why I want to leave? Don’t you know in your heart? What kind of nonsense is being transported by your company? Do you want me to tell you?"
The secret had been exposed, and Hua Rongxiao paused for a moment but remained unfazed. Her gaze sharpened as she asked, "How do you know about those matters concerning the company?"
Ke Wenjie couldn't be bothered to explain anymore. Did it even matter? It was no longer important; Hua Rongxiao knew what she had done, and what he had uncovered was merely the tip of the iceberg.
He now understood how a woman like Hua Rongxiao could accumulate so much wealth and resources in such a short time. Unlike him, who was merely a manager relying on Tong Le's resources, she had reached such heights because her heart was ruthless—much more so than his. Most importantly, the path Hua Rongxiao chose was one paved with corpses and blood; it could hardly be described as a shortcut—it was a road of demons.
At that moment, he felt a pang of regret. He began to miss the days when he was with Tong Le. Although they weren't wealthy, he had realized his dream of climbing the social ladder. Even without all the assets, he was respected and flattered by others.
But it was too late for regrets; this ship of thieves wasn't one he could simply abandon.
Seeing Ke Wenjie silent, Hua Rongxiao deliberately smiled. "I was planning to tell you later, but since you found out early, it must be those fools who acted carelessly."
Ke Wenjie remained silent.
Hua Rongxiao continued, "I know this might have scared you a bit, but I can assure you that as long as you stay by my side and walk this path with me, I guarantee nothing will happen to the company. After all, I'm still carrying your child; we are one body, aren't we?"
Ke Wenjie still kept his silence.
Hua Rongxiao took his silence as self-regulation.
"You need to understand my concerns," she said. "I'm doing this for our family. Also, I will be very busy lately dealing with Wan Zhang's aftermath. That wretched Lan Qingqing and that despicable Jin Zi Meng are openly opposing me through live broadcasts. You should know that I originally didn't want to get involved in this mess; if it weren't for you, they wouldn't even qualify as my opponents."
Hua Rongxiao sighed wearily. "To quell this storm, I need to present something substantial to the public quickly. Wan Zhang's aftermath is a good entry point; I need to express my feelings for Wan Zhang on camera so that rumors will die down."
Suddenly recalling something important, she added, "By the way, there's a batch of goods that needs your handling. Think of an excuse for how to transport them; the paperwork will be taken care of by my team."
