If I leave at this point, he wouldn’t agree either.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wife? How has he treated you as a wife? If you were truly his wife, would he still hold an engagement ceremony with another woman?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huo Yishan knew her father’s anger was all out of concern for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As her mother said, no parent would ever want anything but the best for their children.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Daddy, I already told you, that engagement was arranged by his family, and Li Yuan didn’t even attend.” And all this was because of her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he would rather let down everyone else in the world than let her down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yet I’ve never seen him openly introduce you to others. A true wife isn’t just someone you secretly sign a marriage certificate with.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These words cast a shadow over Huo Yishan’s face, but it soon disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why not? He tells everyone that I am his girlfriend, his fiancée. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Mrs. Xiao.” Huo Yishan was determined to maintain the good image of Li Yuan in her father’s mind!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Huo Shi’en didn’t see it that way at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All he knew was that his daughter had been wronged—severely wronged! Not only that, but she was bullied by his family and that so-called fiancée, almost costing her life!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing all of this, knowing it was as dangerous as a mountain of knives and a sea of flames, there was no way he would allow his daughter to stay here!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Shanshan, there’s no need to convince Daddy, I’m taking you back to our homeland tomorrow!” Huo Shi’en’s face darkened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rarely showed such a serious face to his daughter; the reason he did so was to prevent his determination from being swayed by her soft and tender demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whenever she acted cute or pretended to be wronged, he would be helpless against her. It always ended with him compromising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Daddy…” As expected, Huo Yishan began, furrowing her brows and gazing at Huo Shi’en with a pitiful look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Huo Shi’en only glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, not daring to look directly at her teary, distressed expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This trick no longer works.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Daddy…” Huo Yishan continued, still believing her father would eventually compromise as he always did.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But little did she know, this time to Huo Shi’en, the situation was entirely different.\u003C\u002Fp>",638,"2026-06-06T09:48:58.594Z",1,"novelbin.me","a9c2111f55505c04efa9d1fe36303d5fe27b1f82c4de4b295686a6e21453e61c","contract-marriage-love-has-finally-arrived-chapter-1158","contract-marriage-love-has-finally-arrived-chapter-1156",1565,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fcontract-marriage-love-has-finally-arrived-cover.jpg"]
