"Get so good rest, don't think too much about it. Leave the other matters for to handle," he said.
Not hearing her reply, he still felt a little disappointed.
Rong Dai swallowed and his words made her feel more and more anxious.
But just as she wanted to speak, Huo Shao Ting had already let her go and turned his back to her to sleep.
In the darkness, Rong Dai couldn't see anything. But her eyes stared blankly in that direction, lost in thought.
What did he believe in her?
She wasn't the original Rong Dai at all.
All kinds of complex feelings churned in Rong Dai's heart. Panic and helplessness mixed together. Hearing his steady breathing, she strangely wanted to cry again.
Her heart felt like it was being burned by blazing fire, scalded by hot oil. She felt extrely uncomfortable.
But Huo Shao Ting didn't speak again. The words stuck on her tongue still didn't co out.
Hearing his even breathing, she could only give up. Sighing in her heart, she fell asleep.
She had co to accept heaven's punishnt after all. These days, she enjoyed Huo Shao Ting's gentle care and concern. But she had forgotten about the sins she committed in her previous life.
How could the heavenly lord still give her the qualification to be happy?
Rong Dai's heart surged with sadness. Indeed, after joy cos sorrow. After reaching the peak of the mountain, all that awaits is the downward slope.
How could she be so naive to think that she could really have any future with Huo Shao Ting?
Not only was her heart sad, but a part of her heart was also silently mocking and ridiculing her for overreaching herself and being greedy.
That night, Rong Dai slept very uncomfortably. When she got up in the morning, Huo Shao Ting was no longer by her side. There was no sound of water in the bathroom either.
As expected...
Rong Dai leaned powerlessly against the pillow, staring blankly at the ceiling.
As expected, she had wanted too much.
Huo Shao Ting was the head of a company. Being tricked by her a few tis, how could he not get angry?
She forgot that back when the emperor was still a prince, he had treated her the sa way too.
But afterwards, there were thousands of changes, and everything ended in sorrow.
She forgot that she should not have let her heart be disturbed from the very beginning. Now she had suffered bitterness again.
The bedroom was silent for a long ti before Rong Dai got up dispiritedly from the bed. As usual, she tidied up the bed, then went into the bathroom to wash up.
In order to make herself look a little more spirited, she changed into a long ankle-length yellow dress that accentuated her slender waist and displayed the beautiful lines of her figure, dispersing so of the haggardness in her complexion.
Only then did she notice the news on her phone.
Weibo had been in an uproar all night last night. The amount of gossip from yesterday alone was enough for netizens to chew on all night.
Everyone could only think that Rong Dai was vicious. Although Wen Sha Lan was hateful, as her relative, wanting her to get a lighter sentence was just human nature.
But no one expected that in the video released by the Wen family, Rong Dai and the young miss of the Huo family were so vicious. The two had directly scared the old lady into fainting.
First, a large group of netizens unanimously cursed Rong Dai, using extrely malicious words. They wished they could dig up and dismber the graves of Rong Dai's eighteen generations of ancestors.
Seeing these comnts, Rong Dai's face only showed a faint smile. She was completely indifferent to their comnts now.
But the netizens never expected that in the middle of the night, a big V from the Huo family directly @ the Wen family's big V account, and released two comparative videos.
This exploded the entire network. Early this morning, the entire Weibo was paralyzed.
The vicious words previously used on Rong Dai were now overwhelmingly sprayed at the Wen family. So even directly cursed for the old lady to go to heaven early.
Seeing this, Rong Dai smiled shallowly.
What more could she say?
Although Huo Shao Ting would suspect and distrust her because of this, she would not regret doing so.
She didn't harm anyone, but she also didn't want to be frad by others.
The Wen family's old lady had no enmity with her, yet wanted to ruin her reputation. How could she tolerate that?
If she endured, her thirty years as Empress in her previous life would have been in vain.
Seeing these comnts and thinking of her almost sleepless anxiety last night, Rong Dai suddenly felt relieved.
At worst, wouldn't the result just be her divorcing Huo Shao Ting and taking on huge debts herself?
What could be worse than that?
She would not give up and admit defeat so easily. She had already lost so terribly in her previous life. She had experienced such painful and unbearable things that she had nothing left to fear.
She took a deep breath to settle the various thoughts in her heart. Picking up her phone, she registered a Weibo account for herself.
Nickna: A Bodhi Seed
Bio: May I be like the bodhi, my body like vaidurya, clear inside and out.
Then she posted a line of poetry: Resenting others' fickle hearts for long, disturbance arose from flat ground for no reason.
Then she turned off her phone screen and went downstairs. She saw her young aunt busy loading luggage into the car to send grandma off.
"Mom, are you going on a long trip?"
Rong Dai asked. Lu Zheng looked over at her and saw that she still looked a little unwell. She said, "I'll be gone for a few days. After the court hearing, I'll co back. This ti, that old lady failed to sche against you. With grandma not ho, she won't be able to find soone else and will co looking for again."
"We can't compromise this ti. This concerns your life and we can't give in. Shao Ting is handling things, so don't worry and don't overthink it. Just focus on what you need to do."
Lu Zheng exhorted her, still worried about the relationship between her and her son.
Last night, it seed like sothing had happened between the two. This morning her son had left early for the company without even eating breakfast.
Rong Dai nodded, "I will. Mom, you also pay attention to safety and keep us updated."
Lu Zheng nodded. She was still sowhat comforted.
Then she got in the car and Uncle Li sent her to the airport.
"Done!" Huo i Shu clapped her hands and walked over to lean her shoulder against hers. "Sis-in-law, don't worry. This matter will only backfire on the Wen family."
Rong Dai nodded. She didn't want to think about this for now. She would just let Huo Shao Ting handle it.
After breakfast, Huo Shao Jie had to rush off for work on his new drama. Huo i Shu also had to prepare for her own personal music.
Rong Dai also took a car to Jiang Ling's place. Over the past few days, it had been Huo Shao Ting sending her over. Today, with no one by her side, she felt like sothing was missing from her heart.
She looked at the lush green leaves in the yard and pushed open the fence to walk in. The old man was practicing tai chi.
"How co after I let you rest for a day yesterday, you stirred up such a big commotion? That boy really takes after you, actually getting into a fight and hitting soone."
Seeing her co over, Old Man Jiang stopped his fists and sat down on a stone stool to wipe his sweat with a handkerchief.
Rong Dai smiled bitterly. It seed that everything had changed just because of yesterday.
"Uncle Jiang, don't tease . I'm already notorious now."
"Not feeling well?" Jiang Ling looked up at her and saw her forced smile.
Rong Dai nodded. How could she feel good?
She had never felt so flustered before. Last night, she desperately wanted to confess everything. It would be a matter of life or death with just a single thought.
But she thought of Huo Shao Ting's all kinds of gentleness and thoughtfulness towards her, as well as all kinds of ss that could happen. She suddenly shrank back.
