The CEO's 100 Billion Bride: The Secret War of the Rich

The car sped through the night, Su Wanwan tightly grasped the USB drive containing the key evidence, her heart still beating hard. Huo Yanshen drove the car attentively, and from time to time he looked through the rearview mirror to see if anyone was following him.

"Where are we going?" Su Wanwan asked, her voice still trembling slightly.

Huo Yan replied in a deep voice: "I have a safe house on the outskirts of the city. It's very secluded. We can hide there temporarily."

Su Wanwan nodded, and suddenly felt a wave of fatigue. Everything that happened tonight seemed like a nightmare. Li Guoqiang's death filled her heart with guilt and fear.

As if sensing her change of mood, Huo Yanshen reached out and gently held her hand: "Don't worry, I will protect you."

This simple touch and words made Su Wanwan feel a little warm, and she forced a smile: "Thank you, Huo Yanshen."

An hour later, the car drove into a secluded forest. After turning a few corners, a low-key villa appeared in front of us.

"We're here," Huo Yanshen said as he stopped the car. "It's very safe here. We have the most advanced protection system."

The two walked into the villa, and Huo Yanshen quickly checked the room, and only relaxed a little after ensuring it was safe.

"You need to rest," he said to Su Wanwan, "There's a guest room upstairs, go get some sleep. I'll take care of some things."

Su Wanwan shook her head: "I can't sleep. We have to check the contents of the USB drive as soon as possible."

Huo Yanshen hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement: "Okay, but eat something first. You haven't eaten for a long time."

He walked to the kitchen and quickly brought out some simple food and two glasses of red wine.

"Drinking some wine can help you relax," Huo Yanshen explained. "We all need to calm down."

Su Wanwan gratefully took the wine glass and sipped it. The aroma of the red wine did seem to help relieve her tension.

The two turned on their computers and inserted a USB drive. Inside were a large number of files and recordings, all related to the "Phoenix Project." As they got to know more, their expressions became more and more solemn.

"This is more serious than we thought," Huo Yanshen whispered, "It not only involves the business community, but also involves high-level politicians."

Su Wanwan felt dizzy, not sure if it was due to the shock of the information or the effect of the alcohol: "What should we do? These people are too powerful, we can't fight them at all."

Huo Yanshen was silent for a while, then said firmly: "We can't give up. Your father and Li Guoqiang both paid for this with their lives. We must continue to investigate."

His words made Su Wanwan feel warm in her heart. She couldn't help but move closer to Huo Yanshen: "You are right. It's just... I'm scared."

Huo Yanshen turned around and looked directly into Su Wanwan's eyes: "Don't be afraid, I will always be by your side. We will face it together."

Their eyes met in the air, and time seemed to stand still at this moment. I don't know who took the initiative first, their lips slowly moved closer, and finally pressed tightly together.

The kiss was gentle at first, but soon became passionate. All the fear, stress and anxiety seemed to disappear at this moment. Su Wanwan felt as if she was overwhelmed by a powerful torrent of emotions and could not extricate herself.

Huo Yanshen's hand gently stroked Su Wanwan's back, and every touch made her tremble. Reason told her that she should stop, but her body couldn't help but move closer to Huo Yanshen, craving more intimate contact.

Before they knew it, they had fallen on the sofa. Huo Yanshen's kiss moved from Su Wanwan's lips to her neck, causing her to tremble slightly. Her hands unconsciously grasped Huo Yanshen's shirt, feeling his strong muscles.

Just when things were about to get out of control, Huo Yanshen suddenly stopped. He propped himself up, panting and looking at Su Wanwan, his eyes full of struggle.

"Wan Wan," he whispered, "are we really going to do this? You're emotionally unstable right now, and I don't want to..."

Su Wanwan interrupted him and kissed him on the lips: "Stop talking. Tonight, I just want to forget all my troubles."

Huo Yan looked at her deeply, as if to confirm her determination. Finally, he nodded gently and kissed Su Wanwan again.

This time, the two of them let go completely. Clothes soon fell to the ground, and the touch of skin to skin made both of them shudder. Huo Yanshen's kiss was gentle and passionate, from Su Wanwan's lips all the way down, leaving a fiery mark on every inch of her skin.

Su Wanwan felt as if she was in a sea of ​​fire, her whole body burning. She hugged Huo Yanshen tightly, eager to merge with him.

(I’ll skip this part because it didn’t pass the review.) Huo Yanshen gently kissed away the tears from her eyes and held her tightly in his arms.

Afterwards, the two of them lay in each other's arms, enjoying this moment of tranquility. Su Wanwan leaned on Huo Yanshen's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.

“Are we doing this right?” she asked softly.

Huo Yanshen was silent for a while, then said: "I don't know if this is right or wrong, but I know my feelings are real. Wanwan, no matter what happens, I will be by your side."

Su Wanwan looked up at Huo Yanshen and saw determination and tenderness in his eyes. She suddenly realized that she had fallen in love with this man without realizing it.

However, reality quickly pulled them back in. There was a strange noise outside the window, and the two immediately became alert.

"Someone is coming," Huo Yanshen whispered, quickly getting up and putting on his clothes, "Hurry, we have to get out of here."

Su Wanwan also quickly put on her clothes and followed Huo Yanshen to run to the back door. At this moment, there was a violent banging sound at the front door.

"Run!" Huo Yanshen grabbed Su Wanwan's hand, and the two rushed into the dark woods.

There were gunshots and footsteps behind her, and Su Wanwan's heart was beating like a drum. She held Huo Yanshen's hand tightly and ran in the dark.

The tenderness of this night seemed like just a dream, and the crisis of reality surrounded them again.
