Chapter 557: Chapter 557: Getting Her_1 Chapter 557: Chapter 557: Getting Her_1 “I don’t recall having a sister with the surna He in the Huo family register.” A coldly decisive curve hooked up at the corner of Huo Beijiang’s mouth, his sharply compelling gaze sweeping across the grand hall casually, settling lastly on Wei Xiaogang.
Huo Beijiang slowly curled up his lips, his eyes narrowing dangerously, revealing unabashed hostility. He had, from the mont he entered the grand hall, noticed the gaze of the man opposite him, and wanted nothing more than to gouge out his eyes.
Wei Xiaogang suddenly felt an unnerving sensation, as though he had been seen through. The oppressive presence of the man’s eyes was overpowering! Just one glance had him trembling, and now he was thankful he was sitting, otherwise, he would have collapsed on the spot in embarrassnt.
Huo Beijiang coldly withdrew his gaze, taking a lofty look at He Jinlan, then turned around, leaving without a backward glance.
He Jinlan collapsed on the floor, and it was only after so ti that she managed to stand up with the help of a waiter. By the ti she returned to her seat, she still hadn’t regained her composure. She was afraid of nothing and could do anything, but she was terrified of her big brother’s cold decision to break ties with her.
She was even more scared of her brother taking action against her.
He Jinlan’s heart was in turmoil, Huo Beijiang’s words from earlier kept replaying in her mind like a curse, causing her face to turn pale, then flush. On reflection, her brother’s attitude towards her had been growing colder since sumr vacation last year.
She rembered that, when they were children, although her big brother didn’t allow her to enter his room, he still took good care of her. Whatever she liked, whatever she wanted to buy, her big brother would always get it for her.
Last sumr vacation, her brother was supposed to accompany her to a class reunion. If Jiang Nanfei hadn’t suddenly appeared and wrecked everything, he definitely would have gone.
How did things co to this?
They, as siblings, hadn’t seen each other in so long. Didn’t her brother miss her at all?
No––
Not only did her brother not miss her, he disliked her.
This realization was driving He Jinlan to the brink of ntal breakdown.
She had done so much in an attempt to win her brother over, not to have their sibling relationship deteriorate, or to be disliked by her brother!
It must be because of Jiang Nanfei, it must be because of that wretch! It was all her doing, all her designs.
If it weren’t for her framing He Jinlan, scheming to have her removed from the Huo family register, how could her brother be so cold to her? To the point where their basic sibling bond couldn’t even be maintained?
“Wei Xiaogang, do you want Jiang Nanfei?” He Jinlan’s eyes suddenly widened, her hands slamming onto the table as she looked at Wei Xiaogang with fervor.
“I do want her, but I’m not a fool.” The man from earlier had an incredibly strong aura, he simply couldn’t compete with it. Moreover, he could clearly see the military rank on the man’s uniform. Such a high-ranking officer at a young age, even if he were in a civil position, would be a formidable figure.
He didn’t want to provoke an indestructible enemy over a woman.
“If you miss this opportunity with her, you’ll regret it your whole life. You’ve also seen how beautiful Jiang Nanfei is. How many won have you t in all these years who are as beautiful as she is? And I guarantee, she’s still a virgin.”
She knew Wei Xiaogang too well. This man was not just lecherous, he also had a thing for virgins. During her first ti with him, he had complained that she wasn’t a virgin. Had it not been for her cunning and clever tactics, they wouldn’t have maintained their relationship for this long.
Wei Xiaogang was involuntarily swayed, “Really? Is she really a virgin? I don’t believe that having a woman as beautiful as her around, your brother wouldn’t have laid a hand on her.”
He was a man, so he understood n better. The rampant possessiveness he’d seen in the other man’s eyes even during their brief eye contact had even scared him.
