Quick Transmigration: I'm so angry I could cry! The male lead has gone off-topic again!

Chapter 281 The Villain Boss Doesn't Need Redemption 32

Xu Wei glanced at Huo Chen and said slowly, "Whether you cried or not is not important. What's important is, what do you mean by making excuses now?"

"Do you not want to get a marriage certificate with Yun Qing at all?"

Yun Qing tugged at Xu Wei and whispered, "Dad, he was the one who suggested getting the marriage certificate first."

Xu Wei nodded, understandingly saying, "It seems he didn't expect you to agree so readily, and you caught him off guard."

Huo Chen: ...

Chairman Xu, is it necessary to hold a grudge like this?

Yun Qing stared intently at Huo Chen, her gaze lingering on him. "So that's how it is..."

Actually, Yun Qing didn't think Huo Chen didn't want to get a marriage certificate with her, but she was indeed not very happy.

Huo Chen was clearly eager to get the marriage certificate. Now that she had agreed and even talked to her father, she was excitedly preparing to go. But then he suddenly stopped her. Wasn't that like throwing a bucket of cold water on her head?

Miss Xu couldn't bear this injustice.

"Young Miss, I..."

Huo Chen wanted to explain, but Yun Qing interrupted him directly, "I'll give you one last chance, will you go or not?"

Huo Chen paused for a moment, and before Yun Qing could explode, he said, "Go."

Yun Qing snorted coldly, "You're smart to know what's good for you!"

Then, with her chin held high and a haughty expression, she turned and walked away, looking quite aggressive.

Huo Chen followed silently, his head bowed and eyes downcast, appearing completely obedient.

Xu Wei: ...Why does this look so much like a big sister leading her underlings to fight someone?

After working overtime all night, Ye Liang was busy until noon before he finished his work. He didn't even want to eat lunch and just wanted to catch up on sleep.

As soon as he lay down on the bed and closed his eyes, his phone rang and he received a message.

He didn't watch it; he just wanted to sleep.

Just a minute later, as he was about to fall asleep, his phone rang again.

He frowned, but still ignored it. If it were anything important, he would naturally make a phone call.

A minute later, just as he was about to fall asleep again, his phone rang once more.

Ye Liang frowned even more, his face already showing signs of agitation.

Another minute later, the phone rang again.

Ye Liang sat up abruptly, opened his bloodshot eyes, picked up his phone with a dark expression, and saw that it was a message from Huo Chen.

His complexion improved slightly, but his mind was still foggy and he felt that something was off. However, he was quickly angered by Huo Chen's message and forgot to investigate the strange thing.

He sent three voice messages in a row, his tone quite agitated.

"Brother, can I call you brother? I stayed up all night and just want to get some sleep, and you're sending me exclamation marks for no reason?"

"It's one thing for you to send exclamation marks, but you're sending one every minute. Can't you just send all the exclamation marks at once?"

"If I don't reply, are you planning to keep sending messages? Are you that bored?"

As soon as he sent the message, Huo Chen quickly replied with a voice message.

How did you know I got my marriage certificate?

His tone carried just the right amount of doubt.

Ye Liang: ? ? ?

Ye Liang: !!!

He was half awake when he realized why something had felt off.

Huo Chen changed his profile picture!

He changed his profile picture to his marriage registration photo! His and Miss Xu's!

Ye Liang was completely shocked. Huo Chen had actually managed to marry the young lady so quickly?

When he came to his senses, he couldn't help but feel happy for Huo Chen, who had gotten what he wanted!

Now that they've gotten their marriage certificate, as Huo Chen's only friend, he should give them a red envelope to congratulate them.

So he transferred the money directly to Huo Chen.

After he finished turning it, he felt something was off. Upon closer inspection, he realized he had pressed an extra zero.

Ye Liang: ...

Staying up late is not only bad for your health, but also a waste of money!

After Ye Liang received an exclamation mark, Xie Mingxiao started receiving a period every minute until Huo Chen was blocked by him.

Huo Chen asserted his dominance, which provoked his rival in love, much to Xue Ling's dismay.

Xie Mingxiao was, after all, the male protagonist in an old-fashioned domineering CEO romance novel, and he was ruthless in torturing his beloved both physically and emotionally.

Moreover, they are lenient with themselves but strict with others.

Having a fiancée, a girlfriend, and a lover is perfectly normal, but if the woman he likes talks to another man even once, he might misunderstand, become jealous, and fly into a rage.

You call him hypocritical? No! This is just his way of showing how much he loves and cares about the female lead!

However, Xue Ling was clearly unable to bear such love.

Xie Mingxiao seemed to have already concluded that she and Huo Chen had an ambiguous relationship, and regarded her as a traitor, showing her no pity whatsoever.

Coupled with the repeated humiliation and beatings she suffered at Huo Chen's hands, she had long been seething with anger with nowhere to vent it.

Now that he has learned that Huo Chen and Yun Qing have registered their marriage, his hopes of winning Yun Qing back have been dashed. Faced with the continued suppression from the Xu Group, he is helpless and can only rage in a fit of impotence, venting his anger on Xue Ling.

Xue Ling was both angry and afraid. Finally, she shouted "I'm pregnant!" which made Xie Mingxiao stop.

But Xie Mingxiao doubted whether the child in her womb was his, which made Xue Ling tremble with anger.

Did he think she wanted to have his child? She'd rather the child be Huo Chen's!

In that case, Huo Chen would probably believe that she genuinely liked him, right?

Huo Chen is an orphan with no relatives, so he should cherish the child in her womb. The three of them will definitely be very happy.

Xie Mingxiao looked at her lost in thought and sneered, "What? Thinking about Huo Chen again? Is the bastard in your belly really his?"

"Unfortunately, it's no use even if it's his. He's already registered his marriage with Xu Yunqing. Do you think he'll still acknowledge this bastard child?"

After he finished speaking, he stared at Xue Ling's stomach and fell into deep thought.

Xue Ling looked on in disbelief. "What did you say?"

Huo Chen and Xu Yunqing got their marriage certificate? No way!

She couldn't help but think of the way Huo Chen looked at Xu Yunqing when she last saw him, and her heart sank lower and lower.

In the middle of the night, the phone rang suddenly. Yun Qing, who was fast asleep, frowned, scratched Huo Chen, and muttered, "Don't make noise."

Huo Chen quickly reached for the phone and found it was an unfamiliar number.

After the call connected, Xue Ling's low voice came from the other end, "Huo Chen, I'm pregnant."

Huo Chen reached out and pulled the blanket over Yun Qing's exposed shoulders and back before lowering his voice and saying indifferently, "Then congratulations."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the phone, then a voice said urgently, choked with sobs, "I don't want this child. I want to leave Xie Mingxiao and Huo Chen. I'll go crazy if I stay with him any longer! Please save me!"

Huo Chen lowered his head and kissed Yun Qing's forehead, his expression gentle, but his tone so cold that Xue Ling felt he was heartless, "You can call the police."

Yun Qing felt an itch on her forehead and snuggled closer to him, whimpering, "Huo Chen, stop it, I'm so tired..."

Huo Chen reached out and stroked her hair, saying softly, "Mmm, go to sleep."

Xue Ling's hand gripping the phone trembled so tightly, "Huo Chen, you really are with Xu Yunqing..."

Before she could finish speaking, Huo Chen had already hung up the phone.

Xue Ling stood there, bewildered, holding the phone that had just been hung up, not knowing what to do.

She'll really go crazy if she stays by Xie Mingxiao's side any longer.

She wanted to leave Xie Mingxiao, but she couldn't escape on her own. Even if she did escape, she would be caught and brought back, making her situation even more difficult.

The person she loves, the person who could help her, is now holding another woman in his arms. Not only does he refuse to help her, but he also holds her biggest secret and is threatening her.

Overwhelmed with grief, Xue Ling was about to burst into tears when she suddenly realized that Huo Chen had told her she could call the police!

So, he stopped forcing her to stay by Xie Mingxiao's side?
