Qiu Zhan left, and instantly there were only Huo Mingze and Shen Modi left in the living room of the presidential suite.
Shen Modi helped Huo Mingze, "I'll help you go back to the room to rest."
In the next moment, Huo Mingze pounced on Modi and pushed her onto the sofa.
"Um..." Modi was kissed.
She looked into Huo Mingze's scarlet eyes that carried a strong sense of aggression.
She tried to get up.
She tried several times, but was pushed down by Huo Mingze each time.
At this moment, he was just like a runaway wolf.
Modi remembered what Qiu Zhan had said about the residual poison, and she felt very flustered.
She called out to him, "Huo Mingze, calm down."
"Wife..." Huo Mingze's scarlet eyes were bloodshot.
He could no longer restrain himself.
"Huo Mingze!" Modi shouted.
His kiss fell again.
Eager and passionate...
Modi slowly closed her eyes and responded to Huo Mingze's kiss.
He had saved her father's life, and they were now husband and wife. She was willing to be his antidote.
Being responded to, Huo Mingze went nearly crazy. He almost wanted to devour Modi whole.
Dry firewood, raging fire...
Taking everything...
The room was filled with a romantic atmosphere...
The scarlet in Huo Mingze's eyes gradually faded, and he became sober.
Shen Modi pulled a blanket to wrap herself up, her face still blushing from the first sexual experience.
Huo Mingze looked at Modi and wanted to pounce on her again.
Suddenly, he saw a bright red stain on the sofa.
He was both surprised and delighted.
Although he didn't mind her past, the first time was always a pleasant surprise.
He got up, put on his pants, picked up Modi along with the blanket, and carried her into the room.
He put her on the bed, leaned over, and rubbed her cheek with his thumb, saying, "I'll be good to you for the rest of my life."
Modi didn't say anything.
If he were just an ordinary person, she would definitely strive to be with him.
But he wasn't.
She was afraid to invest her feelings.
She was afraid that it would end up like before, with her being humiliated and abandoned.
"I'll take a shower. You go to sleep first." Huo Mingze reached out and touched Modi's face again.
He went to the bathroom.
Modi hugged the quilt to her chest, looking in the direction of the bathroom, feeling a myriad of emotions.
If only he were an ordinary person!
But he was a rich man.
A top-notch rich man who could earn billions of US dollars from a single project.
She couldn't control her sense of inferiority.
She would remember how Gu Tianxi's mother threw a bunch of fabricated photos in her face back then and looked down on her, saying, "Little girl, have some self-respect."
She held the photos and explained, "Auntie, these are Photoshopped. It's not me."
Gu Tianxi's mother looked at her disdainfully, "I'm not just talking about the photos. These are not important. What's important is that your status doesn't match Tianxi's. Coveting something you don't deserve is being without self-respect."
She said, "Auntie, I'll work hard. I'll try not to hold Tianxi back and be a good wife."
In college, she worked so hard just to be worthy of Tianxi one day!
Gu Tianxi's mother seemed to have heard a joke and sneered, "Ha, not hold back? A good wife? Your status alone is already a joke in high society. It's not just holding back, it's dragging down everything. A good wife? Can you provide money to support Tianxi or connections to support Tianxi? In a wealthy and powerful family, a single move can affect the whole situation. A single piece of unfavorable news can cause the stock to plummet. Tianxi can only marry a wealthy and powerful family's daughter of equal status to make the Gu family stronger."
She wanted to explain, but Gu Tianxi's mother picked up her bag and left.
She called Gu Tianxi to explain that the photos weren't hers and hoped Tianxi would persuade his mother. Gu Tianxi said coldly on the phone, "Let's break up. Whether the photos are yours or not doesn't matter anymore."
At that moment, she seemed to lose her hearing and her wits. She crouched on the ground and cried bitterly.
That bloody wound, she still couldn't truly heal it until today. She could only try not to think about it.
She also understood that there was a huge gap between ordinary people and wealthy families, and it couldn't be bridged just by working hard.
No wealthy family would accept an ordinary girl.
She also didn't want to face all kinds of ridicule and humiliation in the future.
She just wanted to live a simple life of an ordinary person, down-to-earth and stable.
She felt a coldness on her face.
She reached out and touched it. There were tears.
Why was she crying again?
She pursed her lips and tried to be strong.
When Huo Mingze returned to the room, Modi was sitting on the bed.
He naturally lifted a corner of the quilt and sat down.
"Waiting for me?" He asked with a smile.
"Yeah."
"Do you have something to say to me?" Huo Mingze asked again.
Modi nodded. She was twisting the hem of her skirt inside the quilt with both hands and said, "Meeting you was a very lucky thing for me."
If it weren't for him, her father might have been gone.
And her younger brother wouldn't have had his cochlear implant installed so smoothly.
"It's my lucky too." Huo Mingze reached out and ruffled Modi's hair.
Her hair was a little messy, but it didn't affect her beauty at all.
He just thought that it was time to go to sleep and she should probably take off her makeup.
He said, "I'll have someone send up a makeup remover set."
He was holding his phone in one hand to make a call, and reached into the quilt to hold Modi's hand with the other.
He was used to holding her hand.
Modi didn't pull her hand back.
She felt a bit uncomfortable and said, "Actually, you're not a salaried worker, and your monthly salary isn't 20,000 yuan, right?"
Huo Mingze instructed someone on the phone to send up the makeup remover and then hung up the phone. Looking into Modi's eyes, he said frankly, "Yes, I randomly wrote 20,000 yuan as the monthly salary back then. I just wanted to find a suitable person to marry. I'm lucky to have found you."
"Were you in a hurry to marry to anger your ex-girlfriend?" Modi asked.
"Not entirely."
"Actually, after breaking up, one should love oneself well." Modi said.
Huo Mingze felt that Modi was a bit off. Looking into her eyes, he said, "I've been loving myself well."
After breaking up, he quickly went on blind dates and got married to start a new life. How wasn't that loving himself?
Modi said, "With your status, even if you don't marry Miss Yao, you should marry a daughter of a wealthy and powerful family. You have many choices."
"So what?" Huo Mingze frowned as he looked closely at Modi.
"Marriage isn't just about two people, but about two families. I'm a very poor person who can only hold you back. I don't deserve you... Um..." The rest of Modi's words were blocked by Huo Mingze.
Huo Mingze bit Modi's lip unhappily, in a punishing way.
After a while, he let her go.
Modi said, "Huo Mingze, calm down. Not many people know we're married. We can separate, and you can marry a daughter of a family with a matching status... Ah..."
This time, Huo Mingze bit Modi's lip fiercely, and she cried out in pain.
He pushed her down under him, looking at her with displeased eyes, "Why do you look down on yourself like this?"
She really made him angry like this.
Usually it was men who abandoned women after having sex. But with him, it was the opposite. He had put in the effort, she had enjoyed it, and now she was telling him to separate?
