Chapter 407

"I've always said that I'll be by your side no matter what."

Huo Shao Ting sat down and embraced her, his voice gentle.

Rong Dai leaned against his chest while the news on her phone continued to scroll.

After giving it some thought, she turned her head slightly and looked at him, her gaze deepening. "Shao Ting, I want to handle this matter on my own."

She had mentioned wanting space for her own growth.

During this time, she had relied on him to handle everything because she knew he was there by her side, and she felt secure.

She knew Huo Shao Ting wouldn't complain.

Although she could sit securely on the chair of Mrs. Huo, there would always be voices of doubt.

Such voices existed now, and if she didn't become stronger, they would continue to exist in the future.

It was precisely because Huo Shao Ting had intervened in her affairs several times that people questioned her even more.

Only when she demonstrated her true abilities would those people shut their mouths.

Huo Shao Ting's gaze as he held her showed a hint of disappointment, but he had promised her.

"Alright."

He responded lightly. How he wished he could remove all obstacles for her and make her path smooth.

But if that happened, she would become a caged canary, and that wasn't what they wanted.

"Shao Ting, I remember you've always been by my side."

She smiled lightly as she looked at him.

Since he was by her side, what did she have to fear?

She had been here for more than just a day or two. If she continued to let others manipulate her, then her previous life as a queen would have been in vain.

All the losses and lessons from her past life would have been for nothing.

"As long as you understand."

Huo Shao Ting kissed her forehead, but he still worriedly asked her, "Have you figured out how you want to handle it?"

Rong Dai couldn't help but smile wryly. "Didn't we agree not to interfere?"

However, she also knew that he was just concerned because he knew about her background.

What she had experienced in her previous life was different from everything here, so it was normal for him to worry.

Then she glanced at the video on her phone, her delicate face calm. "But it's just a video. Besides relying on their imagination, what else can netizens do?"

Although Shi Ning's move could bring her criticism, this matter couldn't withstand deeper scrutiny.

And she believed Shi Ning wasn't foolish. She must also understand that this video couldn't prove anything.

So Shi Ning would definitely take further actions.

"If Shi Ning doesn't present concrete evidence, then how can they prove that I bullied her?"

She playfully retorted, her smile carrying a hint of cunning.

"Let them trend for a couple of days. I have other work to attend to during this time. This little trick doesn't have much use for me."

After all, there were already plenty of people criticizing her. It would only mean adding a few more.

Seeing that she remained calm, Huo Shao Ting knew she wasn't affected, and he finally felt relieved.

"What do you want to eat for lunch?" he asked.

Rong Dai glanced at the window and thought about the cafeteria in Huo's Skyscraper.

"I think the company's cafeteria is quite good."

He had been busy with the company and taking care of her during this period. He was already tired, and she didn't want to bother him with back-and-forth trips.

The couple then left the lounge, and Zhang Assistant came over with a copied USB drive. Seeing that the couple was in good spirits, he hesitated and asked Huo Shao Ting, "Sir, do we still need to keep the information for tonight?"

Huo Shao Ting glanced at his wife beside him and instructed him, "Follow Madam's arrangement."

Rong Dai raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "What information?"

Zhang Assistant hurriedly caught up with them and explained, "It's Shi Ning's information. It took a lot of effort to dig it up." ๐—ณr๐šŽ๐žw๐ž๐š‹๐—ป๐—ผvel.๐—ฐo๐ฆ

It had taken him quite a lot of effort to investigate Shi Ning.

Who could have imagined that such a young girl could hide so deeply?
