Chapter 85: Huang Li (edited)

"Sigh," Huang Li lay on Lu Zhen's large bed, dressed in casual clothes with blankets covering her. Her eyes had dark circles beneath them.

"Am I doomed to become Lu Zhen's fiancée?" She pondered with a clenched fist.

In reality, she had managed to escape when she had the opportunity. However, upon overhearing the servants' conversation, her hopeful expression turned into one of despair, and she obediently returned to Lu Zhen's room.

"That bastard defeated my brother, a half-step third-stage martial artist, with a simple flick of his finger?" She questioned her reality, filled with regret.

Initially, Huang Li had held onto hope, believing that her family would safely retrieve her, after which she could find numerous ways to deal with Lu Zhen, even if he was a martial arts genius at the peak of martial trainees. 

However, upon learning that Lu Zhen was a third-stage martial artist and her family had already given up on her, she felt utterly hopeless.
