"Do you have someone you like?" He only heard this sentence before he sneered, "Don't worry; I'll take care of it. You can relax a little and work hard to learn etiquette and become my bride."
"I'm sorry, I won't betray my love. I have someone I like, and I won't marry you. Now that you're back, I've made things clear to you. So, please let me leave this place," Tang Xiaowei said coldly, through gritted teeth.
"They didn't tell you?" Huangfu Qiye's cold gaze swept across her entire body. "I've said before: whoever lets you go, will die. Tell me, who can let you go now?"
"What do you mean? Why did you choose me?" Tang Xiaowei had never heard of people around her threatening her with death.
Of course, the ordinary people around her wouldn't kill people.
However, she also knew that with the Huangfu family's power, if someone died here, no one would know and no one would investigate.
She was frightened by Huangfu Qiye's threat.
"I want to marry you. It's that simple!" Huangfu Qiye finally walked forward and stood in front of her. Then, he raised her chin. His dark eyes were so deep that no one could see his true emotions. He looked at her domineeringly. "You just need to learn etiquette and marry me in two months."
She only felt that his eyes were too cold. She also saw it clearly. When he looked at her, there was no love in his eyes at all.
This meant that he didn't like her.
Since he did not like her, why did he choose her?
She did not understand and pushed him away angrily. "You don't like me, and I don't like you. You can't force me just because you have power. I will not learn any etiquette, and I will not marry you."
"I will make the decision on this matter. Your thoughts and decisions are useless." He was pushed away, and a hint of displeasure flashed across his face. Then, he coldly said, "From now on, you will have to learn etiquette and other things every day. You must learn well, or else, your parents will suffer a disaster because of you."
"What right do you have to treat our family like this?" When Tang Xiaowei heard this, she immediately flew into a rage.
"Speaking of your parents, you have been provoked like a little leopard. Don't you know that you are staying in my manor right now because your parents sold you to me?" Huangfu Qiye looked at her angry appearance mockingly, so he calmly threw this bomb at her.
When Tang Xiaowei heard this, her face turned even paler. She shook her head hard and said, "Impossible! You are lying to me. How could my parents sell me to you?"
However, after she finished speaking, she felt that it was a little strange for Huangfu Qiye and her parents to suddenly appear at her home after she returned there yesterday.
At that time, her father seemed to be a little angry, but he was also quite patient.
As for her mother, she seemed to be better looking than usual, and she also seemed to smile more than usual.
"I've prepared a gift for you. I'll get someone to send it to you later." Huangfu Qiye was very satisfied when he saw how helpless and scared she looked after learning the truth. There was an extremely faint smile on his lips. Then, he left her room.
As for Tang Xiaowei, she wanted to follow him out when she saw that he had left.
No matter what, even if she didn't believe Huangfu Qiye's words, it was impossible for her to marry him. If she wanted to leave, she had to leave as well.
However, when she ran to the door, Huangfu Qiye just happened to close it. She couldn't control the strength in her hands and both of them touched the door.
In the next second, the alarm sounded again and her hands started to hurt.
She frowned and fell on the carpet again.
"Huangfu Qiye, you devil, let me go!" At this moment, she could no longer care about offending Huangfu Qiye and shouted angrily through the door.
Unfortunately, no one paid attention to her outside.
At that moment, a deafening sound suddenly came from behind her.
She was shocked and turned around. She saw that the huge TV, which was hung on the wall, had been turned on, and there was an image on the screen.
The person on the screen was her father, Tang Qingxuan.
She was stunned.
Tang Qingxuan started to speak on the television. "Xiaowei, I'm sorry. Your mother was sick and needed a new heart. We accepted young master Huangfu's help, so we sold you to him. From now on, don't go back to the Tang family. Live well in the Huangfu family."
Tang Xiaowei didn't waste any more time. After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and the image on the television immediately disappeared.
"What?" Tang Xiaowei looked at the television with disbelief. Her entire body trembled.
Huangfu Qiye's words were actually true. Her father had really sold her.
This was the gift that Huangfu Qiye had just mentioned, and it was also his reminder that she was already the person he had bought.
But even after seeing this scene and hearing her father's words, Tang Xiaowei still couldn't believe that it was the truth.
Moreover, even if she believed it, she still had to escape.
The person who sold her was her father, not herself. She wouldn't be foolish enough to sell herself as a commodity.
She wanted to go back and ask her father. If it was true, then she would never return to the Tang family. She did not have such a father. She would not sell herself just because her mother was sick.
It was not that she was cold-blooded, but at this moment, if she did not protect herself, her life would be ruined.
She had to figure out the situation. She did not want her life to be ruined just like that.
She had someone she liked: a boyfriend. Although her boyfriend had quarreled with her and she had not been in contact with him for a long time, she did not love Huangfu Qiye. Huangfu Qiye did not love her either. She would never marry him.
The door was suddenly pushed open, and the two maids who had taken care of her walked in.
A doctor followed behind them, and one of the maids held an electronic device in her hand.
"Miss Tang, young master instructed us to enter your fingerprint so that you will not be electrocuted in the future. After you enter your fingerprint, ask the doctor to take a look at your body." The maid holding the electronic device walked towards Tang Xiaowei. The other maid came over and helped her up.
Tang Xiaowei stood up shakily. When she heard that her fingerprint could be entered, she finally heaved a sigh of relief and was very happy. However, she did not want to show it, so she followed the maid's instructions with a calm expression She entered the fingerprint.
After doing this, the maid took the instrument to the side. The other maid helped Tang Xiaowei to the bedside and sat down. Then, she said to the doctor who followed her in, "Doctor Zhang, quickly examine Miss Tang's body."
Doctor Zhang nodded, then went forward and respectfully said to Tang Xiaowei, "Miss Tang, please extend your hand."
Tang Xiaowei had just entered her fingerprint. She thought that even if she ran out now, she would not be electrocuted. So, she lowered her head and thought about how to leave this place.
