Chapter 9 From now on, his identity is brother-in-law

  Each other's bed companion...

  That's right, she defined their relationship between the two of them now like this,

  For what little self-respect she had left, which was already cheapened to the extreme, she wanted to reserve some dignity for herself. At least, she wasn't just a plaything for him.

  Huo Yize gazed at Tong Mai's face for a long time, his eyes deep and unfathomable, as if he wanted to see through him completely. He liked to use his sharp gaze to give others an overwhelming sense of pressure.

  "Speak quickly if you have something to say, all this nagging is annoying," Tong Mai said with great irritation.

  Huo Yize naturally wouldn't surrender just because she urged him to, staring at him for a long time before saying slowly and calmly, "Xiaomai, remember... don't make me angry tonight."

  His warning was very low, but the threat was strong enough

  At first, he was still pursuing the question of who she loved. How did it suddenly turn into a mountain road with eighteen bends, bending to the point where you shouldn't provoke him to anger? Is there something wrong with his brain or has he been stimulated by something?

  Tong Mai took a step back, on guard as he looked at Huo Yize, who seemed no different from usual, and actually appeared quite normal.

  "You must be sick, I didn't provoke you, how could I have made you angry? What I do is none of your business, right? Everyone has their own things to attend to, and you'd better remember... don't always stare at me, I'm just a servant in your household, not a prisoner."

  Tong Mai returned to her usual strong and carefree personality, but unbeknownst to him, it was all a facade. She just didn't want to appear pitiful in front of him, as if she had to have his love no matter what.

  It's not like that...

  She might have a little bit of a crush, like Huo Yize this kind of man who is full of charm and temptation, any woman who has been with him for a long time will find it hard to control herself.

  She is also, she just regarded herself as having been infatuated once.

  I woke up and nothing had happened, the sun rose as usual from the east...

  Although that's what she said, Tong Mai was clear that her feelings were sprouting, so in order to take advantage of the situation where things can't be taken back, she wanted to strangle it in the cradle as soon as possible.

  He continued to stare at her, but increased the force in his hands. With a pull, her delicate body was tightly pressed against him. His hands were completely unscrupulous, rubbing back and forth on her plump buttocks, deliberately making her resist the scorching heat beneath him, as if to clearly tell her: he wanted her now, and he could have her now.

  Through the fabric, he felt that clear swelling and scorching. Tong Mai's body was taut, stiff to the point of immobility. "You... you're not allowed to mess around here,"

  Huo Yize heard her voice trembling with fear...

  Ran Ho Yuet Cheuk did not stop because of her fear, but instead deliberately provoked even more terror from the bottom of her heart.

  He was certain that she didn't dare to be reckless or loud here, so as he gazed at Tong Mai's helpless and frightened face, a thread of joy flowed through him...

  Unconsciously, it had already slipped under her skirt, with fingertips nimbly teasing...

  Tong Mai's face turned red, his whole body was hot and almost burning himself, how could he do this, here anytime anywhere... Yin Yuqi and others might come.

  Clutching her legs together, Tong Mai struggled against him, "You can't do this, even if you don't respect me, you should at least respect Yin Yuqi!"

  She just saw with her own eyes that Yin Yuqi's face was filled with joy and excitement when she heard the news of the upcoming wedding, she must have been waiting for this day for a long time.

  No wonder...

  It's said that Yin Yuqi and Huo Yize have been together for a long time. For women, the longer they are together, the more they will yearn for a perfect ending. Even if in the end they discover that this person is not who they wanted, they still can't help but be infatuated.

  When it comes to Yin Yuqi, Huo Yize indeed becomes somewhat subdued, but his hands do not relax, still tightly embracing her, as if tight enough to embed her into his own body.

  His impulses towards her seemed to be sublimated, intensified, in each successive encounter.

  However, Huo Yize's mind was quite clear about what he should and shouldn't do. Even if he admitted to himself that he had a little bit of love for her, especially after hearing Tong Mai say... she also loved him, this was undoubtedly a major discovery for him.

  But he won't be with her...

  She's not suitable for him. Even if he wants her every moment, to the point of madness, he still needs to suppress this desire.

  Gradually, Tong Mai felt He Yi Ze's relaxation, and she also managed to escape his arm, deliberately keeping a distance from him...

  "Wheat, still that one sentence, a month's time, to be exact, we only have three weeks left, after three weeks, I will marry Yuqi, from now on, in your eyes, I only have one identity, brother-in-law."

  Huo Yize continued to speak in a slow and steady tone, even though Tong Mai could see the unquenchable flames of desire on his face, he spoke without any emotion, completely calm.

  The more it is like this, the more Tong Mai can feel his seriousness...

  Brother-in-law...

  What a repulsive title, what a sarcastic title

  She hates it extremely, that damned thing only wants to thoroughly erase these two words from the dictionary, go to your brother-in-law.

  "Three weeks, no matter what I will stick to it, as for brother-in-law... I have never acknowledged Yinyuqi as my sister, how can I acknowledge you as my brother-in-law,"

  She won't admit it, firmly.

  Having said that, Tong Mai didn't care what Huo Yize would say and turned around to leave.

  If she doesn't leave, if she doesn't walk away, she will definitely lose face in front of him, she won't be able to help but cry... crying out loud about when exactly did she fall for him, and when exactly did she sink deep into the mire.

  Walk out of He Yize's hidden space, breathe in the fresh air, Tong Mai takes big mouthfuls of air, inhaling... exhaling...

  She continued to calm herself down a bit now.

  "Yi Ze, so you're here. Dad wants us to go over there together, let's go..." It was Yin Yuqi's voice, Tong Mai immediately hid in a corner, not wanting her to see him.

  They are truly a couple, she... is just a Cinderella, a lonely and helpless Cinderella.

  The difference is that Cinderella eventually found her prince and lived happily with him.

  And she, just now Huo Yize's words were obviously trying to distance himself from her...

  Whatever, just clear herself, isn't she eager to do so? Why pretend to be sentimental at this time, licking her wounds alone.

  This kind of thing is really not something she would do.

  She's unhappy now, she urgently needs a big PK with Xiaoa and the others, maybe she can vent out all the resentment in her heart.

  What Yín Yǔqí said, "Dad wants to formally introduce her to everyone", is another deceitful statement. Perhaps, Yín Yǔqí didn't deceive her, but because she and Huò Yìzé's marriage news spread, they became the focus, and Yín's father probably also forgot about this matter...

  Originally, she was not important at all in their hearts.

  In whose heart is she an unimportant person...

  However, if Tong Mai wants to push through the crowd and jump to the second floor... she will definitely attract everyone's attention, and it would be assumed that she is intentionally trying to draw attention to herself.

  She doesn't do this kind of thing anymore, at least she's not in the mood for it now.

  Feeling down, down to the lowest point...

  Mrs. Huo took out the fourth-generation iPhone that her husband had given her, but at this moment, looking at it didn't make her feel particularly happy, instead she felt a sense of distance between herself and them.

  Online...

  Xiao A seems to be absent.

  It's better to be lonely: Little A, are you there? I'm feeling terrible, let's chat for a bit.

  Her tone, when talking to Xiaoming, is completely like a buddy, brotherly affection.

  Lian Xien Ning seemed to vaguely sense the vibration of her phone...

  It turned out to be wheat.

  Xiao A: Mai, what do you want to talk about? I'll keep you company.

  Li Xian Ning considerately didn't ask Tong Mai what was wrong with her mood, at this time if she forced her to speak, she would instead become even more uncomfortable.

  It's better to be lonely: I suddenly realized that I'm very stupid, stupid to the point of being almost like a pig. (For the first time, she was so self-deprecating, usually she would praise herself as if she were a fairy, it can be seen that her mood had reached an all-time low.)

  Xiao A's follower 1: Lonely, can you please not suddenly pop out and scare us? Aren't you always saying that you're a fairy? How can a fairy sister be mentioned in the same breath as pigs? (It turns out everyone really understands Tong Mai)

  It's better to be quiet: You're always leaving, don't you think my mood is already bad enough?

  Tong Mai held his phone, hanging his head low, walking aimlessly; Li Xian Ning had also completely immersed himself in the chat, disregarding the gazes of those around him, single-mindedly swiping on his phone...

  Xiao A's follower 2: Mai, let's PK, how about it?

  It's okay to be quiet: Next time, I'm not convenient now.

  Xiao A's follower 2: What are you doing? You always say it's inconvenient lately...

  (Xiao A's follower 2 wrote a lot of words, Tong Mai didn't have the mood to read it, and only asked Lian Xian Ning)

  It's better to be lonely: Little A... I don't know how to tell you my current mood, all I can say is terrible, it's terrible to the extreme.

  Xiao A: What's wrong again, Mai? Let me help you, I really want to help. Please give me a chance. (He wasn't being arrogant, it was just a small matter, and he could have helped with even bigger things... As for Li Xian Ning, she never thought of Tong Mai's problems as big deals... She was like a playful kid who would say she was in a bad mood over the smallest thing.)

  Li Xian Ning was stroking with her index finger, a faint smile playing on the corners of her mouth, a happy and contented smile.

  Tong Mai didn't want to say anything more. In the past, no matter how unpleasant things got, she would joke around with Xiao A and the others, and her mood would lift. But this time, not only did it not get better, but it actually sank even lower...

  It's better to be quiet: Little A won't say anymore, looking forward to our meeting.

  This expectation of meeting... should be enough to give her a little happiness, right?

  Just in the next second, her shoulder bumped into someone, and her mobile phone fell to the ground...
