The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 30

"Th-this is impossible! You must be lying to me!" As soon as Wen Shi Lan came to her senses, she shrieked and rushed out after Huo Shao Ting!

She couldn't accept such an explanation! He had clearly been willing to accept her! He must have only said those things because he cared about her reputation!

Wen Shi Lan was still in denial as she ran to the restaurant entrance and saw Huo Shao Ting get into his car. She immediately threw herself at the car door, clinging to it desperately!

She didn't care at all about being gentle, cute, or charming. Her meticulously done makeup was instantly ruined by her tears.

"Brother Huo, you're lying to me, aren't you? I know you're worried about my reputation, but I don't care about any of that! All I care about is you!"

"Do you know? Since I first met you when I was seven, I swore in my heart that I would definitely become your bride, definitely become your wife, and be the mother of your children! Brother Huo, you can't treat me like this! I love you so much!"

Wen Shi Lan was on the verge of collapse!

She couldn't believe what her ears had just heard. How could he have no interest in her? Was his kindness to her really just because of her father?

She couldn't accept this explanation!

"Boss, this is..." Zhang, Huo's assistant, was stunned speechless by Wen Shi Lan's behavior. He looked at Huo Shao Ting's gloomy expression in the rearview mirror in shock.

Huo Shao Ting's face was cold and his eyes were filled with disgust and displeasure as he glanced up at Wen Shi Lan, who was clinging to the car door like a madwoman.

Grandma was right, this woman's character was no good.

"Miss Wen, I'm telling you again, I have no interest in you whatsoever. From beginning to end, from head to toe, I have never had the slightest inclination towards you. I'm doing this only to avoid upsetting my wife. Don't imagine there's something between us when there isn't."

He looked at Zhang with extreme disgust. "Go get security to take her away."

Zhang wiped away a cold sweat. Although the boss was very charming and wealthy, an object of desire for many unmarried women, situations like this hadn't decreased at all even after the boss got married. However, no woman had ever clung to him so blatantly.

Because women who harassed the boss usually didn't end up well, gradually fewer and fewer dared to get close to him.

He hurried out to deal with the situation, but before he could close the car window, Wen Shi Lan had clamped onto it with both arms!

"Boss, this is too difficult for me."

The restaurant's security came over but was also powerless. Who dared try to pry her away?

Zhang tried persuading her several times, but Wen Shi Lan refused to let go. Instead, she started wailing loudly.

"Contact Wen's family to come deal with this. Send another car over."

Huo Shao Ting glanced at his watch. His patience with Wen Shi Lan was completely used up.

Zhang nodded and stood guard outside the car door while making arrangements over the phone.

Ten minutes later, the car arrived.

"Boss, the car is here."

"The keys." Huo Shao Ting's voice was cold. Zhang quickly handed over the keys, then remembered the 100,000 yuan cash. "Boss, I put the 100,000 yuan cash for your wife in the trunk."

Huo Shao Ting didn't reply. He got in the car and sped away.

"Shao Ting!"

Wen Shi Lan couldn't help shouting loudly, but the security stopped her. She could only watch powerlessly as he left.

Zhang shook his head. When Wen's family finally rushed over, the drama was finally over.

Huo Shao Ting was in an extremely bad mood. By the time he got home, he had already missed dinner at the Huo family residence. The housekeeper, Aunt Wang, happened to be out.

After eating, Rong Dai was in the living room downstairs going over the script with Huo Shao Jie. When he saw Huo Shao Ting's dark expression, the hairs on Huo Shao Jie stood up. Seeing his gloomy face, he knew something was wrong. He immediately hugged the script and stood up. "Sister-in-law, Lu Ye and I still have some details to finalize for the script. Let's discuss it again tomorrow!"

Then he dashed upstairs as if his feet had wheels.

Rong Dai was puzzled. Looking up at Huo Shao Ting's unhappy face, she cautiously asked, "You're back. I was..."

But before she could finish speaking, Huo Shao Ting cut her off. "Did you go see Wen Shi Lan today?" His sharp gaze fixed on her.

Rong Dai nodded. She was still very confused. Could there have been some conflict between them after her explanation?

"I was just worried that there might be misunderstandings between you and Miss Wen because of me, so I made a special point to meet up with her and explain. Did Miss Wen not believe me? I can meet up with her again tomorrow to clarify. I can explain it clearly."

Seeing her speak so seriously and formally, the anger pent up in Huo Shao Ting's heart had no outlet. He could only seethe in silence.

This woman was completely unreasonable!

"Listen to it yourself!"

Huo Shao Ting took out Wen Shi Lan's phone and directly played the recording.

Rong Dai nodded very carefully. "That's right, that's what I said. Is there something wrong with what I said?"

Upstairs, Huo Shao Jie didn't hurry into his room. Instead, he stood by the wall listening.

The spacious living room had good acoustics, so he could of course hear the recording too. Seeing Rong Dai nod so seriously while his brother's face was so ugly, he couldn't help feeling anxious about her lack of emotional intelligence.

Huo Shao Ting gave a cold laugh. "What do you think you said right?"

Seeing him on the verge of anger and her own cautious confusion, Rong Dai's heart cooled. Could her clumsy efforts have backfired? Wasn't she just getting herself killed?

"Shao Ting, listen to me, I didn't mean to..."

"Since you went to see her, I'll make myself clear."

To avoid this woman being suspicious, he extremely disliked when misunderstandings like this happened!

"First, I married you not because it was an arranged marriage, but because I felt you were the right person to marry. Second, I have no feelings for Wen Shi Lan, neither before nor in the future. Third, no one can force me to do what I don't want to do."

Seeing Rong Dai's blank, bewildered yet cautious face, the fire pent up in Huo Shao Ting's heart still couldn't come out. It could only fester silently inside him.

"Do you understand my explanation?" He asked coldly, his gaze icy and mixed with anger.

Rong Dai's mind went completely blank! She was dumbfounded!

So all her efforts to match them up were just her own wishful thinking?

"So...I was just imagining things?"

"What do you think?" Huo Shao Ting asked impatiently. He had no desire for marriage precisely because women were so troublesome, with too many strange ideas in their heads.

Dealing with women was far more difficult than dealing with work. He didn't want to make trouble for himself.

But when he met Rong Dai, he was willing to get married. He just hadn't expected the difference after marriage to be so great.

Rong Dai was instantly embarrassed, panic rising in her heart. She wished she could find a hole to crawl into!

But could she really be blamed completely? With how intimate they were?

"I...I saw you were so close with Miss Wen, so I thought..." She struggled to explain further.

"So instead of asking me, your husband, you guessed on your own?" Huo Shao Ting's voice was icy as he sat down on the sofa.

Rong Dai didn't dare move an inch. Cold sweat was breaking out on her back. She would never have imagined this was the situation!
