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

Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen walked through the dark and damp underground passage, and could only hear each other's breathing and footsteps. The passage was narrow, and the two had to bend over to move forward. Su Wanwan felt dizzy, but she endured the discomfort and followed Huo Yanshen's pace.

"How far is it?" Su Wanwan asked softly, trying to hide the fatigue in her voice.

Huo Yanshen looked back at her, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes: "It's almost there, just hold on a little longer."

Finally, they saw a glimmer of light ahead. Huo Yanshen quickened his pace and pushed open a hidden door. Fresh air blew in her face, and Su Wanwan took a deep breath.

They found themselves in a forest on the outskirts of the city, with the lights of the city looming in the distance.

"Are we safe?" Su Wanwan asked, looking around.

Huo Yanshen shook his head: "It's safe for now, but we can't let our guard down. Cheng Yuan's people may soon find out that we have escaped."

At this moment, Huo Yanshen's phone suddenly vibrated. He took a look at it cautiously and found that it was an unfamiliar number.

"Hello?" He picked up the phone cautiously.

"Yan Shen, it's me." The voice of Mr. Huo came from the other end of the phone.

"Father?" Huo Yanshen asked in surprise, "How come you..."

“Don’t ask so many questions,” the old man interrupted him, “Listen, Cheng Yuan’s people have left. But the situation is much worse than we thought.”

Huo Yan frowned: "What do you mean?"

The old man said solemnly: "The 'Dragon Head' has already started to act. They not only want to control the Su Group, but also intend to take control of the entire business world through this opportunity."

Huo Yan took a deep breath and said, "So, they are targeting the entire Huo Group?"

"That's right," the old man said, "and they knew that Su Wanwan was pregnant. They threatened that if we didn't cooperate, they would..." The old man's voice trembled a little, "they would force Su Wanwan to have an abortion."

Huo Yanshen felt a chill and subconsciously looked at Su Wanwan. Although the latter could not hear the content of the call, she guessed the seriousness of the matter from Huo Yanshen's expression.

"Father, what should we do?" Huo Yanshen asked, with a hint of anxiety in his voice.

The old man was silent for a while, then said: "I have a plan. But I need your cooperation."

“What plan?”

"We want them to think you've broken up." The old man said, "You have to publicly announce that you have severed your relationship with Su Wanwan and deny the existence of the child."

Huo Yanshen was shocked and said, "Father, this is ridiculous! How could I possibly do this?"

"Listen to me," the old man's voice became more serious, "this is just on the surface. In fact, I will arrange for you to go abroad secretly. After the child is born safely, we will fight back."

Huo Yanshen was silent. He looked at Su Wanwan, who was looking at him with worried eyes.

"I need to discuss this with Wanwan," Huo Yanshen said finally.

"Okay," the old man said, "but hurry up. Time is running out."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Yanshen told Su Wanwan about the old man's plan.

After hearing this, Su Wanwan turned pale: "They...they actually want to hurt my child?"

Huo Yanshen hugged her tightly: "Don't be afraid, I won't let anyone hurt you and the child."

Su Wanwan trembled in Huo Yanshen's arms, and suddenly thought of something: "But, if you publicly break off relations with me, what will happen to me and the child? We will lose the protection of the Huo family."

Huo Yanshen stroked her back gently: "This is just on the surface. In fact, father will arrange for us to leave secretly. But..." He hesitated, "This means we may have to be separated for a while."

Su Wanwan looked up at Huo Yanshen, her eyes full of anxiety: "You mean..."

"For safety reasons, we may need to act separately." Huo Yanshen said, his voice full of pain, "This will reduce the risk of being discovered."

Su Wanwan felt as if her heart was being cut by a knife. Separate? At this time? But she also understood that this might be the only way to protect the child.

“I…I don’t know,” Su Wanwan murmured, tears welling up in her eyes. “I’m scared, Huo Yanshen. I don’t want to lose you.”

Huo Yanshen held her face and looked into her eyes lovingly: "Wanwan, listen to me. No matter where we are, my heart will always be with you. Nothing in this world can separate us. I swear, I will find you and protect you and our child."

Su Wanwan looked at Huo Yanshen's determined eyes and felt his determination and love. She took a deep breath and nodded: "Okay, I believe you. Let's follow your father's plan."

Huo Yanshen hugged Su Wanwan tightly and kissed her on the forehead gently: "Thank you for your trust. I promise that this separation will not be too long. When everything is safe, I will come to you immediately."

At this moment, Huo Yanshen's phone rang again. It was Uncle Zhang.

"Master," Uncle Zhang's voice came anxiously, "Cheng Yuan's people are back again. They suspect that you are still in the house and are searching everywhere."

Huo Yanshen's expression became more serious: "I understand. Uncle Zhang, please tell father that we agree with his plan."

After hanging up the phone, Huo Yanshen turned to Su Wanwan: "We have to act immediately. Do you have any friends you can trust? It would be best if Cheng Yuan and the others don't know about this."

Su Wanwan thought for a moment and said, "Yes, my college roommate Zhang Jiaying. She is working abroad now, so Cheng Yuan and the others probably won't notice her."

Huo Yanshen nodded: "Very good. I will arrange for you to find her first. Then we will find a way to arrange for you to go abroad."

Su Wanwan suddenly felt reluctant and tightly grasped Huo Yanshen's hand: "Is this really necessary? Are we really going to break up?"

Huo Yanshen looked at Su Wanwan deeply, his eyes full of pain and reluctance: "Wanwan, believe me, this is only temporary. When everything calms down, I will find you. No matter where you are in the world, I will find you."

Su Wanwan burst into tears and threw herself into Huo Yanshen's arms. Huo Yanshen hugged her tightly, as if he wanted to remember this moment forever.

"Remember," Huo Yanshen whispered in Su Wanwan's ear, "no matter what happens, you must protect yourself and your child. Promise me that you will be safe."

Su Wanwan nodded, trying to control her emotions: "You too, be careful. I'll wait for you to pick us up."

The two reluctantly parted. Huo Yanshen took one last deep look at Su Wanwan, then turned and disappeared into the night.

Su Wanwan looked at Huo Yanshen's departing back, her heart filled with anxiety and expectation. She knew that from this moment on, she would face the unknown future alone. But she also knew that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there were ahead, Huo Yanshen's love would be her strongest backing.

She gently stroked her belly and whispered, "Baby, we have to be strong. Daddy will definitely come to find us."
