Chapter 330: Annulling Marriage Agreement?
Translator: Atlas Studios | Editor. Atlas Studios
Ding Rong could not bear to say anything else that would agitate Huo You’s
self-esteem, so she let out a long sigh. In the end, Ding Rong did not want to
see her step into a fire pit and take on a marriage filled with pain and hurt.
After thinking carefully for a while, Ding Rong said hesitantly, “Tf you’re
willing, TI help you think of a way to stop this marriage. The two of you have
only made initial plans and haven’t held an engagement ceremony. It shouldn’t
be too difficult.
To be honest, Huo You’s heart couldn’t help but waver when she heard Ding
Rong’s suggestion.
At this moment, she was constantly wondering if she could really give up on
the political marriage with He Yu. If she borrowed the power of the Hill Family,
the political marriage between the Huo Family and the He Family could be
invalidated. She could also choose a new marriage partner or leave the Huo
Family from now on to start a new life overseas. She could live an ordinary and
stable life, having a life that belonged to an ordinary person
But was that what she really wanted? Huo You asked herself, What is it that I
want?) The next moment, she came to a conclusion
Huo You thought to herself, (I don’t want to die after an ordinary and mediocre
life like everyone else. Even if the path I’ve chosen has many thorns and
difficulties, Ill continue to walk it bravely. TIl do my best to get everything I
want)
With this in mind, Huo You looked up at Ding Rong and shook her head firmly.
Thank you for thinking of me, but Ive thought about it carefully. Actually,
there’s no need for me to annul the marriage agreement with He Yu. Even
without him, I will still need to choose a suitable husband. The man I choose
next might not be as good as He Yu. After all, my parents won’t care as much
about me as they did before. They won’t put in so much effort to choose a
marriage partner for me.”
Huo You smiled self-deprecatingly toward the end.
Looking at Huo You, who was determined to walk down a dark path, Ding Rong
was helpless.
“Since that’s the case, I won’t take any unnecessary action. I hope you won’t
blame me for being a busybody.”
“No, no, this isn’t being a busybody.” Huo You waved her hand. She wasn’t
someone who was good at exposing her true feelings, but she couldn’t help but
reveal her true feelings at this moment as she looked at Ding Rong gently.
“In fact, other than you, there won’t be another person in the world who will
view my marriage from the perspective of my personal happiness, including
myself. I only care about the benefits I can get from my marriage.”
These words made Ding Rong feel even more complicated. Using one’s
marriage as a bargaining chip in exchange for benefits sounded so
cold-blooded and heartless, b
wasn’t this also a pitiful way to live as well?e
Ding Rong knew that she could no longer continue to evaluate Huo You’s
lifestyle, so she stopped trying to persuade her to give up on this engagement
partner.
She changed the topic. “Since you don’t want me to help you break off the
engagement, what’s your real motive?”
Huo You felt the atmosphere in the dressing room, which had just eased upa
little, freeze up again. Her back was stiff and her expression was tense. She
didn’t dare to meet Ding Rong’s gaze and stood at the door, feeling a sense of
shame rising in her heart..
After hesitating for a moment, Huo You finally revealed her true thoughts.
“Actually, I1 just want to get close to you and make the Huo couple think that we
still have connections. I want to use your influence as Mrs. Hill to gain a say in
the Huo Family.”
Probably in order not to let Ding Rong feel that she was too despicable, Huo
You couldn’t help but add, “This can’t be helped. My life in the Huo Family has
been too suppressing. I just don’t want to be a marionette in their hands
anymore.”
Ding Rong neither agreed nor refused and only looked at Huo You witha
complicated expression. Huo You could not sense Ding Rong’s true thoughts
and only thought that she did not like her to use such schemes to obtain
benefits
In fact, Ding Rong had been like this in the past. She was proud and noble by
nature, always having her own persistence. She had never been bent on
achieving anything. If she wanted to achieve a goal, she would give it her all
and fight for it openly. She would not rely on scheming against people and
planning behind their backs.
At that moment, Huo You recalled the bits and pieces of life that Ding Rong had
taught her. A sense of shame rose in her heart, and she didn’t dare to look at
Ding Rong’s expression. She was afraid to see disgust and hatred on her face..
