The girl was tall and wore a red slant-cut evening gown. The dress felt extremely good and emitted a unique luster of satin, but none of this was as dazzling as its owner.
Her black wool curls reached her waist, and her hair was of excellent quality. It curled around her like a water demon.
She had a fair face and beautiful fox eyes. Her red lips were pursed, and the anger in her eyes burned like flames. She shone like a goddess of revenge.
With this contrast, the pitiful girl crying beside her was as ordinary as a little white flower.
The doctor sighed in his heart. Such a beautiful woman would be worn down by such trivial matters.
"Everyone, stop talking. It's not my sister's fault, it's all my fault for not considering my sister's feelings today."
Huo Yun held Huo Ru's hand and gently stroked her hair. "It's good that you can resolve the misunderstanding when you see the results. Brother Zhou Dong must have suffered. Sister, apologize to Brother Zhou Dong."
"What's there to apologize for? A bitch and a dog will be together forever." Huo Ru slapped Huo Yun's hand away coldly.
"Young lady, it's not that I want to criticize you, but look at how sensible your sister is. She's considerate of you even when you wronged her, but you're not even willing to apologize."
"She didn't even mention the grievances she suffered, she's even paying attention to your relationship with her husband. You can't be too unreasonable."
Huo Yun obediently leaned her head on Huo Ru's shoulder and whispered into her ear with a sweet smile, "My good sister, we were the ones who betrayed you, but how does it feel to be misunderstood by everyone? You don't know, right? I've already tried your new bed with Brother Dong… Even if I'm really pregnant with Brother Dong's child, what can you do to me? Either cancel the engagement or marry Brother Dong. Guess who he will focus on in the future?"
"Get out of my sight now! Disgusting!" Huo Ru suddenly retreated. Huo Yun, who had been standing properly a moment ago, had fallen to the ground. The tears in her eyes were like a broken tap as they flowed down.
"Sister, I know you must be very angry right now. Just scold me. If it makes you feel better, you can hit me…"
"Huo Ru, stop fooling around! Either you show us evidence of our unclear relationship, or you apologize to Xiaoyun and we'll continue to get married." Zhou Dong stood in front of her and Huo Yun, but there was a smile in his eyes.
"Get lost! Even if you're the only man in the world, I won't marry you!" Huo Yun pushed Zhou Dong away mercilessly. "If you marry her, isn't that what she's waiting for?"
"Have you thought it through? Think about your father and your family. They won't give you another chance to marry another person like me." Zhou Dong had succeeded in his scheme, but he still pretended to be magnanimous. "If you agree now, I can give you another chance."
"You should leave this opportunity to yourself! Bah!" Huo Ru glanced at them coldly. "I'll make you regret what you did today!"
"Alright, your family broke off the engagement! You will bear the consequences yourself!" Zhou Dong said loudly.
"You don't have to be so righteous! You know very well what happened between the two of you!" Huo Ru couldn't stand the humiliation of the two of them and the pointing of the onlookers. She squeezed out of the crowd angrily.
Huo Yun refused to let Huo Ru go. She chased after her with tears in her eyes, as if she was really worried that her sister would be angry about this. She grabbed her in the stairwell.
"Sister, are you angry with me?" There was a malicious smile on Huo Yun's face, and she did not look weak at all. "I didn't expect you to be in such a sorry state one day. It really makes me feel good."
"If you apologize to me now, I'll pretend that nothing happened. How about I still let you be Mrs. Zhou? If it weren't for Xiaoyun's generosity, you wouldn't have had a second chance." Zhou Dong raised his head as if this was a huge gift.
"I said, get lost! Do you not understand human language?" Huo Ru pushed them away and continued walking down. When she went out, she almost bumped into someone. She desperately needed a quiet space.
Huo Yun and Zhou Dong had no intention of chasing after her. They were just trying to humiliate her.
Zhou Dong knelt down on one knee in front of Huo Yun, who had yet to walk down the stairs. He said affectionately, "Xiaoyun, I couldn't promise you in the past and made you suffer for so long. Now, are you willing to give me a chance to change? Will you marry me?"
Huo Yun covered his mouth as tears welled up in his eyes. Her eyes were red as she asked in disbelief, "Brother Dong, are you really willing to abandon my sister and choose me?"
Zhou Dong nodded firmly.
However, Huo Yun looked troubled again. She frowned and said, "But… but what about our fathers?"
"It's okay. What the Huo family and the Zhou family need is a marriage alliance. Isn't it better if it's the two of us?" Zhou Dong said confidently.
In the end, Huo Yun handed her hand to Zhou Dong with a blissful expression. "I… I'm willing to marry Brother Dong!"
The sweet atmosphere between the two of them was completely different from that of Huo Ru's.
