Li Mohan’s brows furrowed tightly as he heard this, "What do you mean?"
"It means someone has targeted your company. Not only through public opinion, but they've also set up a Feng Shui formation against your company, which is why your company is facing such severe issues. You can investigate those matters for now; I'll handle the Feng Shui formation." Ye Huohuo said with a solemn expression, her small face appearing quite serious, almost like a master.
"Could it be that Master Peng?" Li Moyan suddenly interjected. "In the illusion earlier, I seemed to hear that wicked mother-in-law mention Master Peng twice. Could it be the same person as the Master Peng from yesterday?"
Li Moyan's reminder was timely. Qin Yumo, affected by the bronze ornament inscribed with "Qingshan Orphanage," had overlooked this piece of information.
Ye Huohuo fell into deep thought, "It's possible. If the incident with that painting yesterday wasn't just about money, and if it was also a part of this formation, then this formation is huge. Are they trying to swallow the entire Li Group?" She seemed to be talking to herself, but her words were astonishing.
"Swallow our Li Group? Who has such a big appetite? Moreover, our Li family has always acted with integrity. Even if we had grievances with someone, it was always through fair competition. We wouldn't resort to such malicious methods!" Li Moyan said indignantly.
Li Mohan remained silent, "Is this targeting only the Li Group, or are you also within their calculations?"
Upon hearing his words, Ye Huohuo’s body trembled, and her cat-like eyes snapped to look at him, "You mean they are using my bad luck to influence your good fortune?" After saying this, her face turned even paler, almost transparent, with faint blue veins visible beneath her skin. She truly hadn't considered this, but after Li Mohan's suggestion, it seemed highly probable. The person targeting the Li Group was hiding in the shadows, employing vicious and interconnected methods. Some events seemed unrelated, but upon closer thought, were they truly coincidental? Overnight, the Li family's Old Master Li was almost ensnared by the painting, Li Moyan had an accident on set, and even the most stable Li Mohan’s company faced a crisis. There was a feeling that a guiding hand was behind this series of events. Who was it? Was she also within that person's schemes? The thought was chilling. What was that person doing? Was all this just for the Li family's money? No, her intuition told her that person wanted much more.
"I can't drag you down!" Ye Huohuo pulled at the corner of her lips, forcing a smile. As she spoke, she took out their marriage certificate from her inner pocket. "If that's the case, I can't drag you down, nor can I drag down the Li family. In our previous agreement, you said I couldn't affect your normal life. We..." Her voice choked up slightly, "Let's get a divorce!" She said it with a smile, but unshed tears glistened in her eyes. In less than a day, she found herself unwilling to part. She couldn't bear to leave this man before her, nor could she leave everyone in the Li family.
"Don't worry. Even if we divorce, I will see through the Li family's affairs to the end, and I will find out who is behind it. Even if I..." She bit her lip, a wave of sorrow washing over her. Breaking her engagement with Li Mohan meant she might not live to see tomorrow. Judging from the recent events, if Li Mohan hadn't appeared in time, she likely would have died. She wasn't afraid of death, but her desires were unfulfilled, and she felt unwilling. Despite her inner sorrow, Ye Huohuo continued to smile, changing the subject. "It's just that my abilities might not be enough. I also have my second senior brother; he's more powerful than me. I've already spoken with him, and if I can't resolve it, he will definitely help you sort things out."
The marriage certificate in Ye Huohuo’s hand was snatched away. Her last sliver of unreal hope was shattered. Everything was about to end, wasn't it? But the next moment, her forehead was flicked forcefully. The pain made her involuntarily gasp, "Hiss!"
"What are you thinking about? Do you think I'm the kind of person who breaks agreements? And in your eyes, is our Li family so easily defeated?" Ye Huohuo felt her chin being grasped and lifted, forcing her to look at him. "Listen, little girl. Since you are now married to me, Li Mohan, as my wife, you must obey me from now on. Who do you think you are? Getting married when you want and divorcing when you want. From now on, unless I say so, even if you want a divorce, you have to endure it!" Li Mohan's light brown eyes flashed with a cold glint, like a sharp blade piercing straight into Ye Huohuo's heart. He spoke with the harshest tone, uttering the most domineering words.
But Ye Huohuo found her heart warming as she heard him. With a soft giggle, she chuckled, her cat-like eyes curving into crescents. The despair that had just gripped her vanished. It felt as if she had leaped from mid-winter into the height of summer.
"I was just teasing you! I worked hard to marry you, racking my brains and expending so much effort. How could I let you go so easily? Besides, you Li family is not to be trifled with, but am I, the last disciple of Shouyang Mountain Wuji Temple, someone to be easily pushed around? Today, I'll show you how this young lady will send all those specters and monsters back to the ghost realm!" Ye Huohuo smiled innocently at Li Mohan and Li Moyan, looking like a radiant, sunny flower. However, as soon as she turned around, her expression instantly became sharp and fierce. A cold light flashed in her eyes, and a fierce aura spread from within her. No matter who you are, using such sinister methods to harm people, especially people of the Li family, you deserve to go to hell!
Li Moyan shook his head and smiled, "Big brother, where did you find this treasure! She's too spirited!" Li Mohan didn't speak, but his gaze remained fixed on Ye Huohuo's retreating back. He narrowed his eyes. Was he seeing things? He felt as if he saw a murderous aura emanating from her. This Ye Huohuo was becoming more and more of a mystery. Her identity was unknown, her actions were unconventional, and even her emotions were unpredictable to him. Li Mohan, who always had everything under control, felt his life had been completely disrupted by this little girl. But he surprisingly didn't dislike this feeling. Every day, even every moment, was novel.
Ye Huohuo was unaware of what the two men behind her were thinking. She simply took a talisman out of her bag. "Huohuo, I calculated that you will face a great tribulation soon. If I am not by your side at that time, remember to keep this talisman safe. It can save your life. However, remember, do not use it unless it is absolutely necessary! Remember, remember!" Her master's words echoed in her ears. She had taken out this talisman several times, each time when she felt she couldn't hold on any longer. But each time, she had managed to persevere on her own. This time, was it absolutely necessary to use it? Could she really break through the meticulously crafted deadly trap set by that person? The talisman was held tightly in her palm...
