Huo Qiang's eyes widened due to the comments made by Qin Ruan.
The common features on his face, restrained and hidden, spread a sense of dread.
The young woman knelt on the ground, her face puzzled, her eyes flicking between Qin Ruan and her best friend.
Suddenly, her face displayed sudden understanding, as if she grasped something.
She glared at her best friend, her voice sharp, "Are you playing me?!"
They were discussing Lord Huo and his low-born bride in the lounge earlier.
The topic was initiated by her best friend.
Later, they claimed that the room was too crowded, and so they moved to the balcony.
Little did she expect, not only did they encounter the well-known Huo here, but her best friend kept on diverting the conversation, intentionally guiding it.
Turns out, she was being manipulated by the people around her.
She was trembling with rage, and even Lin Hao couldn't hold her back this time.
