She felt extremely sorry for Wu Wei’s understanding of her. As soon as the plane landed, she called him to inform him that he was safe.

The press conference was held in Tokyo, Japan, and a crowd of celebrities gathered. She Meixin wore the champagne corduroy gown carefully chosen for her by Huo Zui, appearing in front of everyone with a dignified air. For a moment, many people’s eyes fell on She Meixin.

"Lift your head, smile, and take a deep breath." He knew how nervous she was, so he whispered in her ear.

Following his instructions, she slightly raised her head, revealing a stiff smile. She then took a deep breath, and followed him towards the center of the venue.

A group of people with wine glasses came over to greet them. She Meixin did not want to deal with these people, so she did not understand what they were talking about.

Standing far away at the side of the venue, she quietly looked at the rich and powerful families in front of her. For a moment, she was lost in thought; marrying into a rich and powerful family would be a common occurrence from now on, regardless of whether she married Wu Wei or Huo Jiabao.

"What are you doing here? "Don’t you like the atmosphere?" He had caught She Meixin in the corner a few minutes after he left her sight. He saw her holding a glass of wine and staring at the crowd in a daze. He quietly walked to her side and told her this.

"Ugh ..." She Meixin came back to her senses and turned to look at the handsome and threatening Huo Jiuzi. After a long while, she shook her head and said, "No, I’m just not used to it."

"Follow me." As he spoke, he took the glass from her and placed it on the table beside him. Then, he pulled her hand and ran outside.

"Where are you taking me? "Dreamy is still at the venue." She Meixin was dragged to the side as she ran. Because she was afraid that she would step on the skirt beneath her feet, she had no choice but to lift it up.

"Don’t worry, someone will take care of her. She won’t be taken away by bad people." While Huo Jiabao was speaking, the two of them had already run to the elevator door.

He pressed the button on the first floor and the elevator slowly slid down. However, his hand was still tightly holding her hand without loosening his grip.

From the hotel he hailed a taxi, got in, said a name to the driver in fluent Japanese, and drove slowly forward.

This was the first time they had taken a taxi. He Meixin remembered that they had not taken a seat in the back row before as they were together.

"Where are you taking me?" Her small hand was wrapped by his big hand, and a warm power made her feel some attachment towards him. She didn’t manage to break free from his hand, allowing him to hold her hand in silence just like that.

"You’ll know when we get there. It is said that that place is the best viewing platform in the entire Tokyo." At this time, he had a peaceful expression and restrained his usual hostility as he spoke in a gentle tone.

The night in Tokyo was as bustling and lively as the night in Y City, and the streets were filled with yellow-skinned Asians. If she did not see those advertising films written in all kinds of Japanese, she would have thought that she was still in Y City and would not have felt like she was in a foreign land.

When the car arrived at its destination, She Meixin was led by Huo Jiabao to the Tokyo Tower on the western side of the park. Looking at the towering tower in front of her, she felt her heart tremble.

Wu Wei bought a ticket at the ticket office and then led She Meixin by the hand to the one hundred and fifty meter high platform. She Meixin stood there with his legs weak. She kept his head up, not daring to look down.

"Don’t be afraid. I’ll stay by your side. Come, lower your head and look at everything in your eyes. You will feel a sense of clarity." he urged, holding her slightly trembling shoulder.

"I... "I’m afraid of heights ..." She Meixin did not listen to him. She shook her head and turned around to bury her head in Huo Jiu’s bosom. She tightly closed her eyes, refusing to open them even if she was beaten to death.

"You actually fear heights?" Remembering that he brought He Yi Meng to Disneyland to play, Xiao Budian chose to play exciting games. He didn’t expect her mother to have a fear of heights. Indeed, she did not inherit any genes from her mother.

"Then... Well, let’s go down, I... I don’t want to stay up here anymore. " The longer She Meixin stood on the stage, the more her legs trembled.

"If you do this, can you still leave?" Seeing that He Mei was so afraid, Huo Jiu didn’t push her anymore. However, he was a bit worried. Originally, he had planned to bring her to that 250 metre tall special observation deck after seeing this, but now he didn’t need to go.

"I... It shouldn’t be a problem, let’s go. " As he spoke, He Mei Xin took a deep breath and raised her head. Just as she was about to take a step forward, she accidentally saw the scenery below the pagoda. She was so shocked that her legs gave way and she sat down on the ground.

Seeing her cowardly look, Huo Jiabao couldn’t help but laugh. He then bent down and said to her, "Come up, I’ll carry you."

"Ugh ..." This... Did she hear wrong? He was going to carry her?

She Meixin remembered the last time he had carried her on his back, they had walked in the rain, drenched like a drowned chicken. Now, climbing onto his back once again, She Mei had an indescribable feeling in her heart.

It was unknown when it started to slowly change in front of her.

He no longer despised her easily, and he often yelled at her.

If this had happened in the past, he would definitely have said again, "How can a woman like you be so useless? "To think that you’re already afraid of heights after getting so little, hurry up and get down."

However, he would not do so now. He actually said to her gently, "Come, let me carry you down."

Huo Jiu slowly moved down. She Meixin placed her head on his broad back and asked, "Huo Jiu, why did you suddenly become so nice to me?"

"Did I treat you badly before?" he asked as he walked.

"Don’t you know it yourself? Other than scolding and ordering me all day long, you’ve never even smiled at me, let alone spoken gently to me. " She Meixin pouted and said resentfully.

"Is that so? Then I’ll treat you better from now on, okay?" After he got off the lift and safely landed on the ground, he didn’t let her get down. Instead, he carried her on his back as they walked.

"In the future ..." From now on? " From now on, she was going to marry Wu Wei. No matter how nice he was to her, she wouldn’t have the fortune to suffer, right?
