Chapter 34 Let’s Not Be Together Anymore

“Secretary Wei.” Principal Liu started to panic when he saw Huo Quan leave. He could only hold onto Wei Ling. “Secretary Wei, let me explain. These things…” “I know. This matter has nothing to do with you, Principal Liu.” Wei Ling took a step back. “But it concerns the madam. All the decisions will be made by Mr. Huo.”

Principal Liu’s body went limp. Didn’t this mean that he was completely finished?

“Secretary Wei!” Principal Liu couldn’t care less about his dignity now. He grabbed Wei Ling’s hand and begged, “You will help me, right? Please help me…”.

Wei Ling’s eyes turned cold. Principal Liu was so scared that he slowly let go of his hand and looked at him in horror.

Wei Ling composed his expression and looked at Principal Liu. He said slowly, “Principal Liu, you know Mr. Huo’s temper. Once Mr. Huo makes a decision, no one can change it.”

Of course, that was other than his wife, but Wei Ling wouldn’t tell Principal Liu about this. He wouldn’t let Principal Liu disturb Mr. Huo’s wife.

The car slowly stopped in front of the villa. Li Miaoke wanted to get out of the car, but Huo Quan stopped her.

Li Miaoke was stunned. She was about to say something, but Huo Quan walked around the car and came to her. He opened the car door and bent down to hold her in his arms.

“I can walk on my own,” Li Miaoke exclaimed.

“Didn’t you say that you were tired? If you’re tired, then rest.” Huo Quan pulled her into his arms and said in a low voice.

“But…”

“There’s no ‘but’.”

Li Miaoke instantly fell silent and obediently curled up in Huo Quan’s arms without moving at all.

Under the shocked gazes of the servants in the villa, Huo Quan carried Li Miaoke back to their bedroom. Just as Huo Quan was about to put Li Miaoke down, Li Miaoke suddenly said, “Brother Huo, I don’t think we should be together anymore.”

Huo Quan tightened his grip around her waist. “What did you say?”

Li Miaoke pursed her lips. When her gaze met Huo Quan’s slightly cold gaze, she turned her head forcefully. “Put me down first.”

Huo Quan lowered his head and looked at the awkward little girl in his arms. His gaze was dark. He didn’t listen to Li Miaoke. He carried her and sat down on the bed. “Speak clearly first.” His tone was commanding.

Li Miaoke shook her body. “How can I talk to you like this? Let me go first.”

Huo Quan’s deep voice rang in Li Miaoke’s ears. “Miaoke, are you trying to make me angry?”

In that instant, Li Miaoke didn’t dare to say anything. She shrank into Huo Quan’s arms and didn’t look at him while sulking.

The atmosphere in the bedroom seemed to freeze in an instant. However, Huo Quan and Li Miaoke both knew that she wasn’t joking when they said that they were going to separate.

At first, when Huo Quan and Li Miaoke said they were going to get married, she was shocked, but she didn’t reject hjm. Sometimes, she thought that no one would treat her so well except for Huo Quan. Even though Brother Huo was seven years older than her, there was nothing wrong with the two of them being together. However, she had forgotten how different their statuses were.

Huo Quan was the high and mighty leader of the Huo family, but what about her? She was merely an illegitimate daughter who was looked down upon by others. Her existence would only bring shame to Huo Quan.

Li Miaoke’s grip on Huo Quan’s clothes tightened. Finally, she mustered up all her courage and said, “Huo Quan, I don’t know why you like me.”

Huo Quan frowned at her.

Li Miaoke closed her eyes and continued, “I’ve asked you before, what if you regret marrying me? You’re the leader of the Huo family, the high and mighty president of the Huo Corporation. You’ve always been surrounded by people, worshipped and looked up to, but what about me? I’m different from you…”

Huo Quan was about to retort, but Li Miaoke covered his mouth. “Don’t interrupt me, let me finish first.” She pursed her lips and her face was pale.

Huo Quan looked at her with a pained expression. Li Miaoke seemed to be scalded by his gaze, and she quickly averted her gaze. “I know that what I said might be pretentious to you, but I still have to think about my future, don’t I? What if you really fall in love with someone else in the future? Yes, you said that you wouldn’t fall in love with someone else, but who can guarantee what will happen in the future?”

Under Huo Quan’s gaze, Li Miaoke’s voice became softer and softer. When she finished speaking, her voice was so low that it was almost inaudible.

“I don’t care why you want to marry me, and I don’t care what you think. In any case, I don’t think we’re suitable for each other.” Li Miaoke finally finished what she wanted to say, but for some reason, when she thought about how she was going to be separated from Huo Quan, she felt upset and depressed.
