WARNING! Tsundere President - Chapter 840

They never stood a chance.

“Wen He! Get back here!!”

Huo Chen tried to force the cell bars apart in a frenzy. He struggled like a mad animal that was trying to break free of its cage.

However, no matter how hard he pushed and pulled, the bars remained rigid.

“Wen He, I’m warning you, if you do this, I will never forgive you!”

“…”

Wen He paused mid stride, but only for a moment before she ran out of the building.

Once outside, she accidentally tripped on a rock and fell on her back.

Wen He did not instantly get up to her feet. Instead, she lay on her back and started pounding the ground with her fists by way of venting her dismay.

“Why, why, why!” She sobbed.

Why would the world do this to her?!

She had only been with Huo Chen for a few days.

Why was she thrown from the happiest moment of her life to the deep end of misery and agony?

Did god have a grudge against her?

“Ma’am?”

Song Shou came running and saw that she had fallen, so he quickly helped her up to her feet.

She looked deeply frustrated with the fate she was dealt with, but there was nothing she could do. Song Shou felt sorry for her.

However, no words could make her feel better, so he merely assisted her into the car without a word.

Wen He covered her face with her hands and cried silently.

“…”

Song Shou opened his mouth but could find no words for her, so he sighed and drove her back to her house.

Wen He staggered into her house like a woman who lost her soul.

Despite Song Shou and Auntie’s concern for her, she sat alone and did nothing else for the rest of the day.

At night, two uninvited guests came to visit her.

Lu Bai and Gu Jinzhi entered the house one after another and noticed Wen He sitting on the sofa like a lifeless puppet.

Lu Bai was agitated. “How did this happen? Who told on you?”

He would rip the person responsible apart!

Wen He shook her head mechanically.

“I don’t know.”

“I do.”

After Gu Jinzhi said that, Lu Bai immediately turned toward the man. Even Wen He looked up at him.

Gu Jinzhi did not keep them guessing. “My investigations revealed that the person who leaked the information is probably my dear brother… Lin Kang. The Lin family has done business with the military for a long time. It should not be too difficult for them to acquire such intel.”

“It’s him!”

Wen He finally knew was behind this.

No one in the military except the higher level staff knew about her marriage with Huo Chen.

Lin Kang probably pried information out of one of them and spread the news through the web and media.

Since he had no evidence, it created only harmless rumours.

However, Huo Chen’s marriage proposal in the airport brought more attention to the issue.

Rumours could turn into something more threatening. The military had to provide an explanation to the public.

“I am sorry for getting you in trouble.”

Gu Jinzhi said with unusual solemnity.

“Lin Kang must have associated you with the events that day and developed a grudge against you too.”

“That’s not entirely what happened.”

Wen He shook her head and replied with cold detachment.

“Your brother is an obstinate and petty man. He must have hated Huo Chen for announcing the cancellation of the Lin family’s contract with the military in front of all the guests. Moreover, I had taunted him that day as well. It is no wonder that he seeks for revenge on us both.”
