In the evening, the sky was dark, and the wind blew her hair, making it look bleak and messy.
Xia Zhitong hugged herself, carrying a simple suitcase, and walked on the winding cobblestone road. The surrounding trees were eerily quiet. She suddenly stopped and turned to look at the magnificent castle behind her.
A luxurious but lonely castle.
This is not her home, nor should it be her final destination.
Turn around and keep moving forward...
When Xia Zhitong walked to the gate, he heard the noise outside the wall.
"I would like to ask if Xia Zhitong, the eldest daughter of Xia, has broken away from the Huo family?"
"Is Xia Zhitong unable to continue to stay in the Huo family because she cannot inherit the Xia family's inheritance?"
"I heard that Xia Zhitong was kept by a wealthy businessman before marrying into the Huo family. Is this the trigger that led to Xia Zhitong being kicked out of the Huo family?"
…
Reporters were crowding around outside. Xia Zhitong's trembling legs were shaking in the cold wind. For a moment, she seemed to have lost her courage.
"Miss Xia, you are no longer a member of our Huo family. Do you still want to use any reason to stay in our Huo family?"
The butler's cold ridicule came from behind. The butler in black robes put his hands behind his back. His disdainful eyes fell coldly on Xia Zhitong's thin body. Two bodyguards rushed up to see how they would force Xia Zhitong away.
.
Xia Zhitong sniffed and stared at the door, with a tenacious sneer on her lips, "Don't worry, I will leave, you don't need to do anything!"
"Wait a minute." The housekeeper stopped Xia Zhitong, and Xia Zhitong turned around and looked at him indifferently.
"There is also a check here for 10 million, which should be considered as compensation."
The housekeeper thrust the check into Xia Zhitong's hand.
The corners of Xia Zhitong's lips twitched slightly, and a hint of self-mockery flashed through her moist eyes, "Am I just a dog?"
The butler remained silent.
"Okay, I'll take it because I need it to help me ward off the dogs outside!"
Xia Zhitong put away the check and walked to a small door next to the door.
The delicate white hands opened the door, and reporters swarmed in!
Xia Zhitong did not expect that there were so many reporters outside, and the place was completely surrounded. The cameras were clicking and flashing. Her eyes were stabbed to the point of tears. She stood numbly at the door, with pairs of big hands pushing her...
"Xia Zhitong, it's Xia Zhitong!! What do you want to say to everyone about this marriage that only lasted three months?"
"Is the reason for the marriage change because you were once kept by someone?"
"I heard that you used to have paid dating while you were studying abroad. Is this true?"
…
Xia Zhitong's face was pale, her eyes were filled with darkness, and all kinds of unpleasant words were hurting her more and more.
"That's enough! Please don't do this!"
Her voice, so small, was drowned in the crowd...
Someone suddenly pushed her. Xia Zhitong protected her abdomen, twisted her ankle, and leaned forward...
She fell down. In order to save the child, she first supported the ground with her hands, and then heard the sound of bones being displaced. The pain was like breaking bones, which made her almost lose her breath. Her face was white and transparent, and she was sweating in the cool breeze.
Air dry...
Looking at the reporters, she naturally backed away, but no one stepped forward to help her.
"Have you had enough?"
Suddenly, there was an eerie silence. She did not cry. Her strong eyes were filled with water. For the sake of her children, she could not be bullied like this.
Standing up, she took out the check and threw it into the air!
"This is ten million, let me go..."
The ironic check was spinning in the air. When the reporters saw the check, they were stunned at first, and then rushed toward the check like crazy.
The wind was strong, and the checks were flying in the wind. Xia Zhitong saw the greedy light in those people's eyes, but she just smiled coldly and slowly squeezed out of the crowd...
…
"Tong...Tong..."
Nightmares haunted Huo Chengxi. He had been unwilling to wake up for several days. This time his fever was really severe. Several nurses and doctors took turns treating him and giving him injections, which finally calmed down his fluctuating emotions.
"Father, Kyle has been in coma for so many days and hasn't woken up yet? In the past, I remember that he was stabbed several times and almost died, but nothing like this happened today. I'm so worried..."
Elena looked at Caesar, who had white hair. Caesar had not slept well in the past few days because of Huo Chengxi's injury. He frowned and stared at Huo Chengxi's handsome face with sharp eyes.
"This child doesn't want to wake up..."
Elena grabbed Caesar's hand, her beautiful eyes filled with tears, "He doesn't want to wake up? Why? Why doesn't he want to wake up and see me? Foster father, didn't you say you would help me get rid of Xia Zhitong?
Why did I hear that she left the Huo family? Now that she is free, wouldn't she have more opportunities with Kyle..."
"No!" Caesar shouted coldly, a glimmer of light flashing in his dark eyes, "I asked the undercover agent sent there to mediate the relationship between Xia Zhitong and the Huo family, just to remove the Huo family's protection of Xia Zhitong. In this way, we can
There’s a chance to strike!”
"Let's... start?" Elena's eyes narrowed, her hands trembled slightly, and a trace of hesitation appeared on her beautiful face, "Father, do you want to...?"
"Elena." Caesar caressed Elena's round shoulders lovingly, "You must never be soft-hearted towards your enemies. Only Xia Zhitong's death can Kyle completely give up!"
Elena was shocked and slightly opened her red lips. She had never thought of harming anyone. She just didn't want Kyle to leave her because she loved him, so she... secretly asked the doctor to switch Huo Chengxi's
He had to take contraceptive injections every month in order to be able to conceive his child and settle their marriage as soon as possible.
"I have sent a killer. As long as you do what your adoptive father says, Kyle will definitely come back to you and propose to you."
Caesar's eyes turned slightly and looked at Huo Chengxi's closed eyes. His thoughts seemed to be in a desperate struggle. The veins on his forehead popped out and his whole body was trembling...

Xia Zhitong finally managed to escape from the crowd of reporters. She called a taxi and reported the address of Amy's home.
I haven't seen Amy for a long time because the Huo family doesn't allow her any sympathy from the outside world. So Xia Zhitong doesn't know if Amy, her friend, will be angry because of this.
"Hello, Amy?"
Xia Zhitong dialed the phone.
A cold word came from the other end of the phone, "Xia Zhitong, did you call me? You...you have no conscience!"
Amy scolded Xia Zhitong vigorously, scolding Xia Zhitong for his wealth and sex. After marrying into a wealthy family, he didn't even invite his best friend to attend the wedding, and there was no news from him after that.
"Amy, I'm really sorry. It's a long story. In short, the person I married is Huo Chengxi, but it's not Huo Chengxi..."
Xia Zhitong didn't know how to explain to Amy what had happened recently. She lowered her head and felt dizzy.
She pressed her eyebrows and looked through the rearview mirror, seeing several black cars following the taxi, and felt a faint feeling of uneasiness in her heart.
"Okay, I think you can't explain it clearly. I've heard that you were kicked out by the Huo family. You have nowhere to go now, do you? Come to my house."
Xia Zhitong nodded, hurriedly took out the money and gave it to the driver.
Get up and open the car door in a hurry.
"Amy, I'm so scared. Can you come downstairs to pick me up? I found... someone is following me..."
After Xia Zhitong got out of the car, she looked around worriedly and found that several black cars had stopped and opened the doors neatly. There were men wearing black suits and sunglasses. It was already dark and the wind was cold.
Astringent, it blows a strange coolness and penetrates directly into people's bone marrow!
"Following? I'll be down right away!" Amy replied worriedly.
"No...don't come down...no!!"
At this time, Xia Zhitong's mobile phone had been thrown to the ground. A pair of fierce feet stepped on the mobile phone and rolled it several times, making a crisp sound!
"Xiaotong...Xiaotong...what's wrong with you?"
Amy yelled at the phone, so scared that she shed tears, but there was already a "beep" sound on the other end of the phone...

I'm really sorry, the update is delayed a bit, Huo Chengxi will appear in the next chapter.
There will be a little sweetness, but...
I'm just afraid that if you don't hit me in a few days, Xiaomi will float away evilly~~
