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

Su Wanwan walked alone on the quiet street, her heart filled with mixed emotions. The pain of separation still lingered in her heart, but she knew that now was not the time to be weak. She had to be strong, for herself, for the baby in her belly, and for Huo Yanshen.

She took out her cell phone, hesitated for a while, and finally dialed Zhang Jiaying's number. Although it was late at night, the call was quickly connected.

"Wanwan?" Zhang Jiaying's voice was filled with surprise and worry. "Are you okay? I saw on the news..."

“Jiaying,” Su Wanwan interrupted her, “I need your help.”

After briefly explaining the current situation, Zhang Jiaying agreed without hesitation: "Where are you? I'll pick you up right away."

Half an hour later, Su Wanwan sat in Zhang Jiaying's car and finally relaxed a little.

“Oh my god, Wanwan,” Zhang Jiaying said as he drove. “I can’t believe you’ve been through so much. And…are you really pregnant?”

Su Wanwan gently stroked her abdomen and nodded: "Yes, that's why I have to leave. They... they threatened to hurt my child."

Zhang Jiaying gasped: "These people are so scary! Don't worry, Wanwan, I will help you. I have some connections abroad, maybe I can arrange for you to leave quietly."

At this moment, Su Wanwan's phone suddenly rang. It was an anonymous text message:

"Ms. Su, I hope you have thought it through. Give up the investigation and return to the Huo family. We can guarantee the safety of you and your child. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences at your own risk."

Su Wanwan's hands began to tremble unconsciously. Zhang Jiaying noticed her abnormality and asked with concern: "What's wrong?"

Su Wanwan told Zhang Jiaying the content of the text message. Zhang Jiaying frowned and said, "These people are really unscrupulous! Wanwan, don't be fooled."

Su Wanwan shook her head: "I won't. I promised Huo Yanshen that I would protect myself and the child."

Zhang Jiaying sighed: "Speaking of Huo Yanshen...are you really going to follow his father's plan? Announce the breakup publicly?"

Su Wanwan was silent for a while, then said firmly: "This is the safest way at the moment. Although I am very reluctant, for the sake of the child, I am willing to endure this pain temporarily."

Zhang Jiaying reached out and held Su Wanwan's hand: "You are really brave, Wanwan. But have you ever thought about what if the Huo family is using you?"

Su Wanwan looked at Zhang Jiaying in surprise: "What do you mean?"

Zhang Jiaying said cautiously: "I just feel a little strange. Mr. Huo suddenly changed his attitude and supported you two to be together. And this plan... always feels a little strange."

Su Wanwan fell into deep thought. Zhang Jiaying's words did touch a certain doubt in her heart. But she quickly shook her head: "No, I believe Huo Yanshen. He won't lie to me."

Zhang Jiaying glanced at Su Wanwan and said nothing more.

The two came to Zhang Jiaying's apartment. This is a high-rise apartment in the city center with strict security measures.

"You stay here first," Zhang Jiaying said, "I will contact some reliable people to see how to arrange for you to go abroad."

Just then, Su Wanwan's phone rang again. This time it was Huo Yanshen.

"Wanwan," Huo Yanshen's voice sounded a little tired, "Are you safe?"

“I’m fine,” Su Wanwan said, trying to control her emotions. “I’m with Jiaying now. How about you?”

Huo Yanshen was silent for a while, then said, "I've returned to the company. My father is arranging a press conference, and we are going to...publicly announce the breakup."

Su Wanwan felt her heart being tugged at: "So fast?"

“I’m sorry, Wanwan,” Huo Yanshen’s voice was filled with pain. “We must act quickly. The people at Dragon Head are already suspicious.”

Su Wanwan held back her tears: "I understand. You...you must be careful."

"You too," Huo Yanshen said, "Remember, no matter what you hear or see, you must believe me. I love you, Wanwan. I will definitely come to find you."

After hanging up the phone, Su Wanwan finally couldn't hold back her tears. Zhang Jiaying quickly hugged her and comforted her softly.

The next morning, the press conference was held as scheduled. Su Wanwan sat in front of the TV and watched Huo Yanshen announce his breakup with an expressionless face.

"...My relationship with Miss Su Wanwan is purely a misunderstanding. We have never really been together, and it is even more impossible for us to have any children. These are all rumors, and I hope everyone will stop speculating too much..."

Su Wanwan felt heartbroken when she saw Huo Yanshen's cold expression on TV. Although she knew it was just acting, those words still made her feel heartbroken.

Zhang Jiaying turned off the TV and looked at Su Wanwan worriedly: "Are you okay?"

Su Wanwan forced a smile: "I'm fine. This is all planned, isn't it?"

At this moment, Su Wanwan's phone suddenly rang. It was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello?" She picked up the phone cautiously.

"Miss Su," a deep male voice came, "I am Mr. Huo's personal physician. The old man asked me to tell you that he hopes you can come back to the Huo family."

Su Wanwan was stunned: "What? Why?"

"The old man said he has something important to tell you, about your father," the doctor said, "and he promised that as long as you go back, no one will hurt you and the child."

Su Wanwan felt dizzy. Her father's matter? What did this mean?

"I...I need to think about this," she said finally.

After hanging up the phone, Su Wanwan told Zhang Jiaying about the situation.

"This is definitely a trap!" Zhang Jiaying said excitedly, "Wanwan, you can't go!"

Su Wanwan bit her lip, struggling internally: "But...what if it really has something to do with my father? I must know the truth."

"But the risk is too great," Zhang Jiaying advised. "Think about your children."

Su Wanwan stroked her abdomen and fell into deep thought. She knew Zhang Jiaying was right, but deep in her heart, there was a voice urging her to find the truth.

At this moment, her phone received another text message. It was from Huo Yanshen:

“No matter what happens, don’t go back to the Huo family. It’s too dangerous. I’ll find a way to contact you. Take care.”

After seeing this message, Su Wanwan finally made up her mind: "Jiaying, we have to leave here as soon as possible. I think they may have discovered my location."

Zhang Jiaying nodded: "I have already contacted them. There is a flight tomorrow morning that can take you away."

Su Wanwan took a deep breath and looked out the window. She knew that once she stepped on the plane, she would leave this sad place and all the disputes. But at the same time, she would also be farther and farther away from Huo Yanshen.

However, for the sake of her child, and to be able to stand beside Huo Yanshen with dignity in the future, she had to do this.

"Be strong, baby," she whispered to her unborn child, "We will be reunited with Daddy soon."
