章 244: Purge

The net that had been prepared for ten years had finally been cast today.

The ruckus in the living room ceased and even the people's breathing could be clearly heard. Someone exhaled sharply, while other panted or breathed through their noses heavily.

Everyone remained motionless like wax figures and all eyes were on Huo Shaoheng, who had just entered. His back was straight and firm and his side profile was strong and powerful. His sculpted features were accentuated under the lights of the crystal chandelier, his stoic face had a splendour that even outshone the lights above him.

Gu Nianzhi used all her control to not appear smitten by him in public, but her pride for him overflowed in her heart.
