Lady Gu Is Too Weak To Fend For Herself

1362 I’ll Give You A Chance

At this moment, Guan Hui felt that she was about to suffocate. Everyone’s gazes were like venomous snakes that were about to devour her.

Huo Yuzhou left with a gloomy expression, while Guan Hui followed behind him. Her face was pale, and a cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

Guan Hui had been by Huo Yuzhou’s side for more than seven years. She knew him very well. Although he did not say anything, she could tell from the expression on his face that he was very angry at this moment.

Her entire body was weak, and she was trembling violently. She stammered, “Y-Yuzhou, I… I know my mistake. P-Please let me off.”

Huo Yuzhou stopped in his tracks and lowered his eyes slightly. There was no emotion in his cold eyes. “Lil Hui, I remember telling you not to provoke her. Why didn’t you listen?”

Guan Hui trembled as tears streamed down her face. “I… I won’t dare to do it anymore.”

Without saying a word, Huo Yuzhou grabbed her wrist and brought her into the luxurious lounge. At this moment, Guan Hui’s face was pale, and her terrified eyes were filled with tears. “Yuzhou, I was really wrong. Please forgive me this time!”

Looking at Guan Hui’s tearful face, the corners of Huo Yuzhou’s mouth suddenly curled up into a cold smile. His voice was low and cold. “Lil Hui, I could indulge you in the past, but why did you say that you were Mrs. Huo in front of her? Don’t you know your identity? Do you think you’re worthy of being my wife?”

“I… I was just muddle-headed. Everyone was saying that I was Mrs. Huo, so I didn’t retort. I didn’t know that Xi Xi was also present, nor did I know that she married Gu Zheng!”

The last sentence successfully ignited the anger in Huo Yuzhou’s heart. The coldness around him grew stronger and stronger, and the temperature in the entire room seemed to have dropped a little.

At this moment, Guan Hui had already fallen to the floor. Huo Yuzhou looked down at her and bent down slightly. His well-defined fingers raised her chin, forcing her to raise her head.

“Guan Hui, I thought that you would’ve learned to be more obedient after being by my side for so many years. It seems that I’ve overestimated you. I can give you a chance this time. But if you dare to make a similar mistake in the future, don’t blame me for being heartless.

“You have to remember who gave you a carefree life and who pulled you out of the quagmire. If you don’t listen to me, then everything you did in the Huo family back then…”

“I’ll be good! Yuzhou, I’ll definitely listen to you! Forgive me. I won’t provoke Xi Xi anymore! I’ll do whatever you ask me to do!”

When Guan Hui heard Huo Yuzhou’s words, her eyes were filled with horror. She instantly cried bitterly. “I’ll apologize to Xi Xi. I’ll say that you’ve always liked her and you’ve never liked me. The position of Mrs. Huo will never be mine!”

Huo Yuzhou chuckled and looked at Guan Hui with cold eyes for a long time. Then, he bent down slightly and gently stroked her cheek with his index finger. He wiped a tear away from her eyes and said in a much gentler voice, “Lil Hui, she’s not the Xi Xi from before. She’s Gu Zheng’s wife now. If you provoke her, Gu Zheng won’t let you off even if I don’t do anything. I won’t fall out with Gu Zheng for you. If Gu Zheng wants your life, I won’t stop him.

“As long as you beg Xi Xi for forgiveness and promise not to provoke her in the future, you’ll have a chance of survival.”

Guan Hui was scared out of her wits. “I… I understand. I’ll apologize!”

“Very good.” Huo Yuzhou stood up and walked to the window to sit down. He took out a cigarette from the box on the table and lit it with his long fingers. As he blew out smoke, he turned his head and asked, “Do you like anything from the auction?”

When Guan Hui heard this, most of the sorrow and fear in her heart dissipated. Was Yuzhou going to give her a gift?

The violin instantly appeared in her mind. She said carefully, “Just that violin…”

“You don’t like the other things?” Huo Yuzhou smiled. “Looks like ordinary things won’t catch your eye anymore. I understand.”

Seeing that he was smiling and was no longer unhappy, Guan Hui heaved a sigh of relief and felt a trace of sweetness.

Did that mean that he would give her the violin? It had to be known that Qiao Xi had once played that violin. If he was willing to give the violin to her, did that mean…

“Why are you still sitting there?” Seeing that she did not move for a long time, Huo Yuzhou could not help but frown and scold coldly, “Get out. I don’t want to see you!”
