The CEO's 100 Billion Bride: The Secret War of the Rich

It has been a week since Su Wanwan left the Huo family. During these seven days, she sent a text message to Huo Yanshen every day to simply report that she was safe. Huo Yanshen would also reply briefly to tell her about the company's recent situation. Although both of them restrained themselves from saying much, their words revealed a deep longing for each other.

That night, Su Wanwan was packing her luggage when she suddenly found an inconspicuous little box. She opened it and found a delicate diamond ring with a note attached: "Wanwan, this is the gift I want to give you on our first anniversary. Although I can't put it on you now, I believe that one day, I will put it on you again. I love you forever, Yan Shen."

Seeing the ring and the note, Su Wanwan could no longer control her emotions and tears welled up in her eyes. She carefully put the ring on her hand, as if she could feel Huo Yanshen's presence in this way.

At this moment, her cell phone suddenly rang. It was Huo Yanshen calling.

"Hello, Yan Shen?" Su Wanwan hurriedly answered the phone, trying hard to control her trembling voice.

"Wanwan," Huo Yanshen's voice came through the phone, with a hint of urgency, "Are you okay?"

Su Wanwan took a deep breath: "I'm fine. Yan Shen, what's wrong? Did something happen?"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while, and then Huo Yanshen slowly spoke: "Wanwan, I... I want to see you."

Su Wanwan's heart skipped a beat: "Yan Shen, what did you say?"

"I'm at the airport," Huo Yanshen said with a hint of fatigue, "I bought a ticket for the nearest flight. Wanwan, I can't stand it anymore, I have to see you."

Su Wanwan was so surprised that she was speechless. She knew how dangerous Huo Yanshen's current situation was. If she left the company rashly, her second uncle would probably catch her.

"Yan Shen, calm down," Su Wanwan tried to make her voice sound calm, "Now is not a good time to meet. Think about it, what would your second uncle think if he knew that you left suddenly?"

Huo Yanshen was silent for a while, then whispered: "Wanwan, I know what you are worried about. But I really miss you. I have been thinking about you every day this week, and I am almost going crazy."

Su Wanwan's tears welled up again: "Yan Shen, I miss you too. But we can't be impulsive. The most important thing now is to find out the truth and expose the conspiracy of the second uncle."

"I know," Huo Yanshen's voice sounded a little frustrated, "but Wanwan, I'm afraid. I'm afraid that the longer time goes by, the more distant we will become. I'm afraid that one day, you will leave me."

Su Wanwan's heart was broken when she heard her husband's fragile words. She held back her tears and said softly, "Yan Shen, listen to me. I will never leave you. No matter what happens, I will always wait for you. Our feelings will not change because of time and distance."

Huo Yanshen took a deep breath from the other end of the phone: "Wanwan, you are right. I'm sorry, I was too impulsive. I just... I just missed you too much."

Su Wanwan said softly, "I miss you too, Yan Shen. Every night I think of every little thing we did together. But we must be strong for our future."

The two were silent for a while, both immersed in this deep longing.

Finally, Huo Yanshen said softly: "Wanwan, you are right. I will calm down and continue our plan. However, can you promise me one thing?"

"What's the matter?" Su Wanwan asked.

"Every night at nine o'clock, let's watch the moon together, okay?" Huo Yanshen's voice was filled with a hint of pleading, "This way, even if we are thousands of miles apart, we can still feel each other's presence."

Su Wanwan's tears welled up again: "Okay, I promise you. Every night at nine o'clock, we will watch the moon together."

After hanging up the phone, Su Wanwan walked to the window and looked at the bright moon in the sky. She knew that Huo Yanshen must be looking at the same bright moon at the airport thousands of miles away.

At this moment, although they are thousands of miles apart, their hearts have never been so close.

The next morning, Su Wanwan received a text message from Huo Yanshen: "I have returned to the company. Wanwan, thank you for your guidance last night. I will try my best to find out the truth and come to pick you up as soon as possible."

Su Wanwan replied: "Yan Shen, come on. I will always wait for you. Remember, at nine o'clock every night, let's watch the moon together."

As the days passed, Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen were in different places, but their hearts were getting closer and closer. Every night at nine o'clock, they would send a message on time: "I'm looking at the moon, thinking of you." This simple sentence became the spiritual pillar that supported them through the long separation.

One night two weeks later, when Su Wanwan was about to go to sleep, she suddenly received a call from Huo Yanshen.

"Wanwan," Huo Yanshen's voice sounded a little excited, "I have an important discovery."

Su Wanwan immediately sat up: "What did you find?"

Huo Yanshen lowered his voice and said, "I found records of secret meetings between my second uncle and several competitors. These records clearly show that they have been plotting to sabotage our company's projects."

Su Wanwan said in surprise: "Great! Yan Shen, this is a major breakthrough."

"Yes," Huo Yanshen said, "but now is not the time to reveal the truth. I need more evidence to defeat him completely."

Su Wanwan pondered for a moment and said, "Yan Shen, you have to be careful. If your second uncle finds out that you are investigating him, he may take more extreme measures."

"I know," Huo Yanshen's voice became serious. "Wanwan, I promise you, I will be very careful. However, just in case, I want to tell you one thing."

Su Wanwan's heart suddenly became nervous: "What's the matter?"

Huo Yan took a deep breath and said, "I opened a secret account in the bank and deposited a large sum of money in it. If...if anything happens to me, you can use this money to protect yourself."

Su Wanwan's heart suddenly clenched: "Yan Shen, don't say such things. You will be fine."

"I'm just in case," Huo Yanshen said softly, "Wanwan, promise me that if anything really happens, you must take good care of yourself."

Su Wanwan held back her tears: "Yan Shen, I don't need any money. I just want you to be safe. You must promise me that no matter what happens, you must protect yourself."

"I promise you," Huo Yanshen's voice was full of tenderness, "Wanwan, when this is all over, I will come to pick you up. Let's start over, okay?"

Su Wanwan nodded, even though she knew Huo Yanshen couldn't see her: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Su Wanwan couldn't calm down for a long time. She knew that Huo Yanshen was going through a difficult battle. How she wished she could be by his side and face it all with him. But she also understood that the best support now was to wait silently from afar.

In the following days, Su Wanwan anxiously waited for news from Huo Yanshen every day. She knew that her husband was conducting a dangerous investigation and might be in danger at any time.

Finally, on a dark and windy night, Su Wanwan received an emergency call from Huo Yanshen.

"Wanwan," Huo Yanshen's voice sounded urgent, "I found decisive evidence. But the situation is a bit complicated, and I may need to leave the company immediately for a while."

Su Wanwan's heart was in her throat: "Yan Shen, where are you going? Do you need me to do anything?"

"I can't say too much now," Huo Yanshen said quickly, "Wanwan, I may be out of touch for a while. But no matter what happens, you have to believe me and wait for me."

Su Wanwan burst into tears: "Yan Shen, you must be careful. I will always wait for you."

"I love you, Wanwan," Huo Yanshen's voice was full of affection, "Wait for me to come back."

The call suddenly ended, leaving Su Wanwan alone in the dark, her heart filled with worry and anxiety.

At this moment, her phone suddenly received a text message from an unfamiliar number: "Su Wanwan, if you want to know the whereabouts of Huo Yanshen, come to the airport to meet me at 12 noon tomorrow."

Su Wanwan's heartbeat quickened. She didn't know if this was a trap or if someone really knew where Huo Yanshen was. But for the sake of her husband, she decided to take a risk.

The next day at noon, Su Wanwan arrived at the airport on time. As she looked around, she suddenly heard a familiar voice behind her:

"Night."

She turned around suddenly and saw Huo Yanshen standing behind her with a tired but gentle smile on his face.

"Yan Shen!" Su Wanwan exclaimed and threw herself into her husband's arms.

Huo Yanshen hugged his wife tightly and whispered in her ear: "I'm sorry, Wanwan. I lied to you. I just wanted to give you a surprise."

Su Wanwan raised her head and looked at her husband with tears in her eyes: "I'm glad you're okay. I was really worried about you."

Huo Yanshen stroked his wife's cheek: "Wanwan, I found all the evidence. Now, it's time to end it all. But before that, I want to tell you something."

He looked deeply into Su Wanwan's eyes and said solemnly: "Wanwan, this period of separation has made me realize that you are the most important person in my life. No matter what happens, I will never give up on you. I love you, more than ever."

Su Wanwan burst into tears and hugged her husband tightly: "Yan Shen, I love you too. No matter what happens, I will be by your side."

Amid the coming and going of people at the airport, the couple who had been separated for a long time hugged each other tightly, as if they wanted to pour all the longing for each other during this period into this hug.
