1769 Retired After Winning Merit, Honourable Although Defeated (40)

"Going to the Huo Family, eh? Are you related to them, miss? Relatives, perhaps?" the taxi driver asked with much interest.

Huo Mian didn't answer as the image she saw on the video played in her head.

In the video, Zhu Lingling was lying in a dark room, completely unconscious. She looked like she had been drugged and was only wearing a thin nightdress.

The message that accompanied the video said, "Mian, I want to see you at home in half an hour. Or else Zhu Lingling will be raped until the sun comes up, and the video will be posted the next day. Do you want to take a guess as for whether the Gao Family would still want her as their daughter-in-law, or if Gao Ran would still love her?"

Huo Mian's head felt like it was going to explode as she read on.

She would never let anything happen to Zhu Lingling, she had just gotten married not long ago.
