Assistant to My Contracted Husband

The Cologne Cathedral is the largest cathedral in northern Europe, modeled after the Cathedral of Reims and Amiens Cathedral, it is Germany’s first church built entirely in the style of the French Gothic peak.

With a rare five-entrance construction, the interior is raised and widened, the towers soar towards the sky, and the luxurious walls are adorned with stained glass depicting biblical figures.

In short, upon entering the cathedral, one is immediately infected by this extravagant atmosphere.

Solemn, elegant.

The bell tower is equipped with five ringing bells, the heaviest weighing 24 tons, and they ring loudly in unison.

The entire interior of the cathedral is adorned with white roses, exuding a romantic vibe.

The guests are numerous, all here to congratulate Huo Zun and Hua Nuan.

They are all influential figures from around the world.

It is enough to highlight Huo Zun’s influence in the world.

Hua Ruyi is filled with jealousy, having heard that this Cologne Cathedral is no longer used privately, never expecting it would be used by Huo Zun.

The power of Huo Zun is truly breathtaking.

Hua Ruyi swallowed nervously, quickly searching the venue for Hua Han’s figure, and indeed saw the man’s lonely, indifferent silhouette in the corner.

Hua Ruyi, trembling, prepared to step forward; Hua Han clearly saw her and gestured for her to move to the nearby corner.

Hua Ruyi dared not delay, maneuvering her wheelchair to follow the man’s footsteps toward the corner.

"Hua Ruyi, your breathing has become rapid, have you seen him?"

Hua Nuan quickly sensed Hua Ruyi’s irregularities from inside the car, accurately assessing the situation.

Hua Ruyi: "..." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Having known early on that Hua Nuan is clever enough, now she sees it indeed.

Hua Ruyi didn’t deny it and could only respond, "Mm."

"You must be meeting in the corner... Go ahead, I’ll wait for you."

"Alright."

Although Hua Nuan is not by her side, evidently her every move is under the woman’s control, Hua Ruyi cannot cause any mischief.

As the surrounding small talk gradually fades, Hua Nuan knows Hua Ruyi is heading towards the corner.

Until there is no other conversation around, Hua Nuan squints her eyes knowing two people should have reached a place with no one around.

Hua Nuan pulls her lips slightly.

The person behind... Your tail is about to get caught.

"Did it succeed?"

The man’s low voice sounded in the earpiece, making Hua Nuan’s expression change slightly.

Despite being expected.

Yet the shock in her heart is hard to change.

Really... it’s him.

The next moment, her eyes wettened because of the man’s familiar voice.

Why... must it be you.

"Hua... Hua Nuan took the latest flight to America; the wedding... she’s not coming, the engagement must be canceled, right... congratulations, you succeeded."

Upon hearing the man’s urgent words, Hua Ruyi slowly raises her eyes, looks at the man in front of her, and forces a smile.

"Are you... satisfied?"

"Mm, good job."

With tightly knit brows, Hua Han’s eyebrows finally loosened a bit, and his thin lips curved.

Nuannuan indeed reacted as he anticipated.

His beloved Hua Nuan, how could she possibly marry an enemy...

She had always been his...

Hua Ruyi deeply gazes at the man in front of her, using every means for him.

But in the man’s eyes, there has never been her.

His every move, joy, anger, sorrow, all changed because of Hua Nuan.

Thus... had nothing to do with her.

Unyielding, Hua Ruyi spoke up, "You... you will fulfill what you promised me, right, rescue me from Hong En..."

Hua Han’s gaze fell on the pitiful woman sitting in a wheelchair, his thin lips pressed together, then curved into a smile.

"Certainly..."

Hua Ruyi’s expression lit up; it seemed despite loving him for so many years, ultimately... he did one real thing for her.

This is enough.

"Brother Hua Han... do you have... ah..."

Bang...

Hua Nuan: "..."

Hua Nuan was still in shock; soon the gunshots heard through the earpiece amplified that shock.

Hua Han fired a gun.

"You... Brother Hua Han... why... why did you do this..."

Hua Ruyi incredulously raised her hand to cover the position of her heart, her fingers pointing at Hua Han.

"Because I am helping you escape from Hong En; after thinking it through, only your death is more... suitable... because dying is liberation for you, isn’t it?"

"Also... I never trust anyone, especially the Hua Family; you know such a huge secret of mine, how could I possibly be at ease? So only when you are dead will I be at ease."
