Standing at the door, Mi Nuo could feel her cheeks stinging, and her scalp was in pain from the tugging. Her clothes were also disheveled. As the door was open, the gust of cold wind rushed in, causing her to freeze.
Her body was trembling subtly, without a clear cause of whether it was because she was angry or cold.
Her heart was throbbing violently, as if she had the medical condition, atrial fibrillation.
She widened her eyes and looked at the two of them inside. Gu Xingshan had her nose stuck in the air self-righteously while Gu Deshou grabbed her hand finally. “Xingshan, don’t be like this.”
Mi Nuo had thought Gu Deshou had finally become more humane. She had never thought that he would say something like this, “Xingshan, if you behave so crudely, you might be mocked by others next time.”
Mi Nuo felt bitter instantly.
So, he stopped Gu Xingshan for her own good.
No one had ever spared a thought for her or cared about her.
Ever since she was young, she had always been bullied by others, but a “Dad” had never stood up for her and protected her.
Mi Nuo bit her lip. “Gu Deshou, Gu Xingshan, the two of you will regret treating me like this in the future!”
After she said this, tears welled up in her eyes. Then, she turned around and strode out of the door.
However, once she walked out of the villa, the coldness attacked her body and she instantly regretted it.
Why did she leave? In that kind of situation just now, pretending to faint and clinging onto them was the best choice!
She turned around and looked at the villa, pondering about whether she should barge in. Just then, two security officers approached her. “Madam, sorry, but Mr. Gu gave us a call and instructed us to chase you out of here.”
Chase…
How dare they use this kind of word on her?
Mi Nuo clenched her fists tightly and remained silent.
She had just walked out of the villa while following the two of them when a crowd of people swarmed toward her from an obscure spot suddenly!
“Ms. Mi, may I know why you are here?”
“Ms. Mi, how are you related to this wealthy lady in the photo?”
“Ms. Mi, why are you looking like this right now?”
Mi Nuo’s instinct was to cover her face. She could not let these reporters upload photos of her in a pathetic state online. She could not!
However, someone grasped her wrist, forcing her to expose her face. Snap! Before she knew it, a photo of her in her most pathetic state was captured!
Both of her cheeks were so swollen that her face looked like a pig’s head and her eyes were forced to squint. Ugly and pathetic, her hair was messed up and creases were starting to form on her clothes due to the tugging.
Mi Nuo felt that she was actually even more pathetic now than last time, when she was in the Imperial Group!
Mi Nuo lowered her head, trying her best to not attract more attention.
Then, she heard someone ask a question.
“Ms. Mi, we have visited the small mountain village where you have grown up. We heard that your parents did not treat you well and that there were frequent occurrences of abuse in your family, but they died in a fire. You were the only one who escaped from that fire. May I know what your thoughts are on this?”
“Ms. Mi, did you set that fire on purpose? Did you set the fire because you wanted to be freed from them?”
After she heard this, Mi Nuo’s helpless gaze turned sharp immediately. With widened eyes, she looked at the reporter and answered, “You need to have evidence to back up your words. If you put things this way, I can sue you for slander!”
That reporter was tenacious. “Ms. Mi, why are you so worked up? Did your guilt turn into rage because what I said was right?”
“Ms. Mi, please answer me. Did you harbor any ill feelings toward your parents last time?”
