This group of people are all die-hard fans of Bai Ru. After seeing the news about Bai Ru's suicide, they came to find this so-called mistress.
Everyone knows that Huo San Shao doted on Bai Ru but suddenly broke up, so there must be a mistress involved!
Jian Yunong took a moment to realize that the mistress they were cursing was referring to her.
"What are you doing?"
Huo Jinge suddenly appeared, "Are the security guards in this hotel dead? Just standing here watching guests being bullied?"
At that moment, a tour group happened to enter, and it seemed that someone came over to help Jian Yunong up because they saw her looking so disheveled sitting in the lobby.
Jian Yunong sat at the bar in the lobby, looking completely out of sorts.
Seeing her like this, Huo Jinge couldn't help but get angry, "Don't you have any temper?"
"What’s the point of getting angry? Did I say anything wrong? Aren't you looking at me the same way?" Jian Yunong looked up, and Huo Jinge was rendered speechless by her calm and unruffled gaze.
"With you looking like this, you can still be called a mistress?" Huo Jinge took out a tissue and handed it to her. "Bai Ru's fans are really too much!"
"Are you insulting me or complimenting me?" Jian Yunong felt very awkward.
Huo Jinge sighed helplessly, "Insulting you! No matter what, you're already my Third Brother's wife. Can you please muster some confidence to slap these people in the face?"
Jian Yunong silently wiped the water off her face and sighed after a long while, "I can't eat these cream puffs; I was going to give them to my aunt."
Huo Jinge looked up at the sky in disbelief, "I now believe that with your intelligence, you could never be a mistress. If Third Brother marries you, there's no other choice!"
"Right. Don't treat me well for no reason; it scares me."
Jian Yunong was used to Huo Jinge's cold demeanor, but when she suddenly acted this way towards him, he felt a sense of panic.
"I now know that when my brother had his accident, Bai Ru went abroad to date various men." Huo Jinge looked at Bai Ru and felt she was nothing more than an ungrateful wolf. No matter how beautiful she was, what good was it if she had the audacity to cause a scene at the wedding? Better off without her! Thinking of this, Huo Jinge couldn't help but scold Jian Yunong, "Why don't you explain anything?"
"Would you listen if I did?"
"…"
That was true!
Huo Jinge felt a bit embarrassed. "I'm going home now. Are you planning to see your aunt or something?"
"Just go home."
Seeing her aunt in this state would only make Mist Shenshen feel heartbroken.
What a proud woman she was, yet she cried for her.
Just thinking about it made Jian Yunong's heart ache.
When he got home and got out of the car, Jian Yunong realized his foot was swollen and could only limp inside.
She thought there was no one at home, but unexpectedly, both her grandparents were there.
"What happened?"
"Why are your clothes all wet?"
Both elders came over to express their concern.
"It's nothing." Jian Yunong didn't want to worry them.
But she forgot that Huo Jinge, who had brought her inside, was definitely not someone to be bullied. In just a few moments, he had explained everything that had happened.
"Bai Ru's fans! They're all her crazy fans! Luckily, it was just water this time! What if they had thrown sulfuric acid instead?"
Huo Jinge's words made everyone present feel a chill of fear.
Jian Yunong instinctively touched her face; she had almost been disfigured.
"Good child, go rest well. Don't think about anything else," her grandmother coaxed Jian Yunong to go upstairs and rest.
The old man picked up the phone and immediately called someone, "Ban Bai Ru. She cannot appear in any newspapers or on any television stations! Why? Because such irresponsible behavior towards life as suicide can have a very bad influence on teenagers!"
What a clever move by the old man! Huo Jinge silently gave him a thumbs up.
Once Bai Ru could no longer appear in the media, her acting career would likely come to an end. Today, Jian Yunong had been bullied but ended up with such a result for Bai Ru; it was worth it no matter how you looked at it!
"But... Grandpa, Third Brother over there..." Huo Jinge was worried that Huo Jincheng would be unhappy.
"This mess was all caused by him! Can't he tell who his own wife is?" The old man slammed his cane heavily on the ground. "Call that little brat! Tell him to get back here immediately!"
...
At the headquarters of Huo Group, during a meeting, the manager of the Sales Department was giving a work report.
An assistant rushed in. "Mr. Huo, your family is on the phone."
Huo Jincheng took the call, and before he could speak, Huo Jinge was shouting on the other end, "Third Brother! Sister-in-law, Sister-in-law has been splashed with sulfuric acid by Bai Ru's crazy fans!"
Everyone present saw the usually calm President change his expression and quickly head outside.
"What happened? Which hospital are they at now?"
Huo Jincheng felt as if someone had squeezed his heart. Jian Yunong was just a fool; how could such a harmless idiot be attacked with sulfuric acid? That must hurt so much!
"Grandpa and Grandma have called a doctor over; they are currently trying to save her at your house!"
"Nonsense! She should be taken to the hospital!"
"Sister-in-law refuses to go! She said she’s afraid of being directly stabbed to death by Bai Ru's fans."
After hanging up, Huo Jinge quickly took a couple of sips of tea to calm down. "Third Brother thinks so meticulously; I almost slipped up!"
Grandpa and Grandma both praised, "Well done!"
Twenty minutes later, Huo Jincheng's car appeared in the courtyard.
"Where is she?"
"What happened?"
"How long has the surgery been going on?"
He asked three questions in a row.
"The surgery is over. You can go see for yourself. She looks unrecognizable!" Grandpa glared at him.
Huo Jinge remained silent.
Grandma also took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears, "What a sin! Not only did Bai harm my grandson, but now she’s going to harm my granddaughter-in-law!"
Huo Jincheng's heart sank to the bottom. The dozens of steps leading to the second floor felt like they would never end, and his feet seemed as heavy as lead.
Entering the room, Jian Yunong was lying under the covers with her head covered.
"Nong Nong..."
Huo Jincheng called her softly.
No response.
“Jian Yunong!”
“Jian Yunong!”
Still no response.
It wasn't the first time he had seen news about obsessed fans throwing sulfuric acid. He never expected such a thing would happen to his newlywed wife.
Anger and heartache fermented simultaneously in his heart.
He sat on the edge of the bed, holding her hand that was resting outside the blanket, kissing the back of her hand. “No matter what… you will always be my wife.”
Suddenly, the blanket was thrown aside.
Jian Yunong opened her eyes in a daze, her tone dissatisfied. “What are you doing? I was sleeping! Can you please not disturb me?”
It was bad enough that he liked to nibble on people's lips; now he was touching her hands and kissing them. No wonder Huo San Shao couldn't win over Bai Ru!
He deserved to be single for life!
“You… are you okay?”
Huo Jincheng suddenly came to his senses, gritting his teeth. “Huo Jinge!”
The sound of a car starting came from downstairs; the two elders and a child had already left.
Huo Jincheng stood by the window, his gaze sharp.
Jian Yunong lay back down on the bed, her voice drowsy, "Aren't you supposed to be at the company? Is it really okay for you to skip work like this? You capitalists are so willful."
Just as she was about to drift off to sleep again, she felt someone lift the blanket beside her and lie down.
A hand had just rested on her waist when Jian Yunong instantly woke up and sprang out of bed.
Huo Jincheng moved faster, pulling Jian Yunong back onto the bed and forcefully hugging her from behind. His chin rested on her shoulder, his warm breath brushing against her ear, "What happened today?"
"Nothing."
Seeing that he made no further moves, Jian Yunong's tense body gradually relaxed. "I just encountered a few inconsiderate kids. They're still young; they saw their favorite star being wronged and wanted to stand up for them."
"Are you hurt?"
"I twisted my ankle." Jian Yunong answered honestly, hoping he would let it go since she got hurt because of his white moonlight. She wasn't ready for any kind of contact with him yet.
Huo Jincheng sat up, lifted the blanket, and held her foot. "Have you applied medicine?"
"Yeah! Jing Ge applied it for me."
"No way, I don't trust that girl." Huo Jincheng got up and left the room. When he came back in, he was holding ice and medicinal alcohol.
The swelling around the ankle is quite high; it needs to be iced first. Then slowly apply the medication.
Seeing Huo Jincheng lift his own foot, Jian Yunong felt uncomfortable all over. After staring at Huo Jincheng for a while, she finally understood where this discomfort was coming from.
Because this person didn't seem like someone who would do such things!
He is inherently a noble Young Master!
"Your feet are quite small," Huo Jincheng concluded after examining her.
Jian Yunong sat up straight. "I'll do it myself."
Huo Jincheng looked over with his dark eyes. "Be good. My grandparents brought me back just so I could treat you like this."
The little bit of warmth in Jian Yunong's heart suddenly dissipated.
So all this person's gentleness is just to appease the elders?
"I wouldn't dare trouble you!"
Jian Yunong pulled her foot back, but Huo Jincheng firmly held onto her ankle, his fingers stroking the top of her foot. "Try moving again."
At that moment, Huo Jincheng's phone rang.
"Answer it for me."
Huo Jincheng commanded Jian Yunong, as both of his hands were occupied.
Jian Yunong naturally pressed the speakerphone.
Bai Ru's voice jumped out.
"Huo Jincheng, your family is spreading rumors to blacklist me! Now all my sponsorships and advertising partners are breaking contracts with me! What did I do wrong to deserve this?"
Bai Ru cried on the other end of the phone, her voice heartbreaking. "Is it because of what happened on the wedding day? I only came to offer my blessings sincerely! Huo Jincheng, you loved me for so many years; such deep feelings—are they all fake? Are you trying to drive me to death?"
Jian Yunong looked up at Huo Jincheng. He was focused on massaging her feet and showed no reaction.
"Huo Jincheng! Speak!" Bai Ru was almost hysterical. "It's one thing for you to target me, but now you're treating my fans like this! They are just kids! What have they done wrong? Do you want to lock them up just because they caused a little trouble for your wife?"
Little trouble? Jian Yunong couldn't help but retort, "Little? Being young doesn't mean they can hurt others without consequence!"
