Chapter 206 There's no turning back
At this time, Evelin's eyes were empty and her thoughts were far away. Even in such a distraught state, her body's instincts still reacted quickly.
After Evelin moved aside to avoid her falling slap, Huo Wanqing’s eyes widened and she instantly pounced into nothing.
Because she slapped him with so much anger and force that she couldn't take it back for a moment.
She staggered and missed her target, then fell directly to the ground, completely defeated.
"Ah!!! Evelyn!"
Huo Wanqing suddenly felt pain and sat on the ground, covering her swollen arm. Her hair was messy and she screamed like a mad woman.
"What on earth did you say to Garland! How could he do this to me!"
Evelin had no intention of paying attention to her at first, and had already stepped onto the steps, but she became a little interested after hearing her say that.
It seems that Huo Wanqing ran directly into Garland's gun.
"None of my business."
Evelin looked down at the woman on the ground now, who had nothing to do with the gentle and generous Huo Wanqing when they first met, and curled her lips with contempt and said a few words coldly.
"It must be you, a bastard, who spoke ill of me in front of Garland again! Otherwise, how could he do this to me!"
"Garland never says harsh words to me!"
Seeing that no one showed up around, Huo Wanqing pointed at Evelin’s face and vented her anger.
"Huo Wanqing, you are really shameless to the extreme."
"Garland hates you so much, yet you still shamelessly eat and drink at my house."
"It seems that you haven't received any good family education."
After saying that, Evelin turned around and went upstairs coolly, completely ignoring Huo Wanqing who was sitting on the ground and yelling behind him.
She was already physically and mentally exhausted, with a head full of worries, so she didn't have the extra energy to argue with Huo Wanqing.
Huo Wanqing howled like crazy, using all her strength to curse Evelin with all the words she could imagine.
Why can Evelin be so high and mighty! Why can she remain calm no matter what she hears!
But after a long time, no one appeared in the huge Lanburg Hall, and no one responded to her.
Therefore, no matter how much she gets angry in the Lan family, no one will care.
Huo Anzhi walked down the stairs slowly in a daze.
He looked at Huo Wanqing with pity, who was lying on the ground with most of her makeup gone and her hair disheveled.
He could not associate his sister with this crazy woman who had no image at all.
"Sister, do you really have to make yourself so miserable for a man?"
"With your status and looks, there are so many good men in the world waiting for you to choose."
"Why do you have to cling to someone who doesn't love you?"
Huo Anzhi let out a long sigh, and finally squatted down and tried to help Huo Wanqing up from the ground.
Unexpectedly, Huo Wanqing fiercely shook off his hand.
She stared into his sympathetic eyes and spoke with a strange look and tone that Huo Anzhi had never seen before.
"You also know that my family background and appearance are excellent, so which of those superficial men out there can be worthy of me?!"
"How am I worse than Evelin? Why can she do it but I can't!"
Huo Wanqing's eyes became increasingly gloomy, and her body, trembling with extreme anger, was about to collapse.
"Also, put away your overflowing sympathy. I don't need anyone's sympathy!"
"I am the distinguished head of the Huo family! I don't need anyone to sympathize with me!"
Huo Anzhi stood there in a daze, unable to utter a word to refute, and even more unwilling to admit that this person was Huo Wanqing.
"Instead of trying to persuade me, it would be more useful to alienate Evelyn and Garland."
"Anzhi, I do all this for us, for the Huo family. When I take the position of Princess Lan, the status of the Huo family will also rise."
"Don't you remember that father always hoped that the Huo family could stand at the top of the pyramid? This was his last wish!"
Huo Wanqing seemed to have regained some of her sanity and realized that her emotions had been too out of control just now.
She softened her tone and tried to persuade Huo Anzhi patiently.
"I also advised my father that the higher you stand, the more you lose."
"The Jin family has been able to occupy the leading position in Shangjing for many years because they have sufficient capabilities, but our Huo family does not have a deep enough foundation and is not qualified to manage a continent at all!"
"I thought you would understand these principles just like me."
"Now it seems that you and your father are the same kind of people. You are too ambitious and don't even consider a way out."
Huo Anzhi thought of his mother who died in his father's power struggle. Looking at Huo Wanqing's face which was 90% similar to his mother's, he finally saw what kind of person she was.
"I have done enough for the Huo family to rise to prominence since I took over!?"
Huo Wanqing was equally incredulous in the face of Huo Anzhi's earnest advice. She had always been unwilling to believe that Huo Anzhi, as her own brother, would not want the Huo family to move to a higher level.
"The profound heritage of a century-old family is not something you can obtain overnight."
"You once promised me that if Garland still has no feelings for you this time, you would be willing to give up on him."
Huo Anzhi's eyes gradually turned cold, and he knew that no matter how much he tried to persuade her, it would be useless. Only Huo Wanqing herself could believe it.
“Anzhi, Garland still has feelings for me. She is willing to give up Evelin’s innocence for the sake of friendship. Doesn’t this prove it!”
Huo Wanqing was slightly stunned. She did say these words, but it was just a delaying tactic to gain control of the Underworld.
"Huo Wanqing, why are you still so stubborn!"
"He doesn't love you at all. He even hates you after all the wrong things you've done."
"At your wedding, Evelin showed up and took Garland away with just one glance. She didn't even need to say a word, Garland left you behind willingly. Don't you understand?!"
"Don't you value your self-esteem more than anything else? Even such a great humiliation can't make you give up on him?"
Huo Anzhi really couldn't bear it anymore. He looked indifferent and every word he said was sonorous and powerful.
This was the first time he said such harsh words to his own sister.
The heartache and helplessness towards her stubbornness and the anger towards her for doing so many wrong things that hurt innocent people.
Shame on her for wanting to separate the two of them so deliberately.
He never imagined that his sister, who pretended to be so gentle and elegant in front of them, was actually so scheming and vicious behind the scenes.
"You don't understand. I don't need his heart, and I don't need Garland to love me."
"As long as his body and his person belong to me, it is enough."
Huo Wanqing shook her head gently, tidied her messy hair, and smiled gently and elegantly.
But what she said made Huo Anzhi feel a chill from head to toe.
