Chen Wei’er thought for a while and said, “Let’s wait a little longer. Let them be suspicious. I’ll just take it as giving you a chance to reorganize the company. It’s time to clean up the atmosphere of fawning over the rich and powerful. Otherwise, it would also affect the He Group if people were to expose other things in the future.”

“Why can’t it be made public?” He Xun’s expression froze. Was it so difficult for her to mention her identity?

“It’s not time yet…” Chen Wei’er did some calculations. The competition was next week, and the results would be out within a week. It would feel different if she won the award and then announced it. Perhaps, it was a knot in her heart from her previous life. She didn’t want to be a useless person.

Moreover, He Xun had most likely chosen to make this public out of guilt. Did He Xun honestly acknowledge her? Chen Wei’er didn’t think so. He Xun was too responsible. She couldn’t forget the scene before her death… And she had been using his sense of responsibility.

She couldn’t stay at home as He Xun’s wife after graduation and achieve nothing in her career. She would only be looked down upon if she stood beside He Xun like this. Chen Wei’er wasn’t willing. She wanted to change her identity and stand beside He Xun.

However, He Xun didn’t understand her thoughts. “Do you have to resist me so much?”

“Of course not!” Chen Wei’er didn’t understand what He Xun was thinking. She sat up directly. “How can I resist you? I just feel that if we go public now, I can’t shut their mouths. You can fire the people in the company, and I won’t stop you. They are problematic, but you can’t shut everyone’s mouth in this world!”

He Xun couldn’t understand. “But you’re my wife. Who would dare to look down on you?” If there were, he would make the other party pay the price.

Chen Wei’er sighed and said, “He Xun, why am I Madam He? I have a name. I’m Chen Wei’er! Honestly, no matter who you marry, she will be Madam He, but Chen Wei’er is me!”

When He Xun heard this, he turned his head and looked into the distance. He didn’t like what she had said… He had never thought of marrying anyone else! She could only be Madam He

Seeing He Xun’s displeased expression, Chen Wei’er knew that her attitude just now was not good. She said softly, “I just thought I wanted to be myself first, then Madam He. It’s not that I’m not willing to be your wife.”

He Xun turned his head and looked into Chen Wei’er’s eyes. “Do you know what happened to Nie Suijing?”

“What is it?” Chen Wei’er furrowed her brows. She didn’t want to have anything to do with Nie Suijing.

He Xun looked at her closely as if trying to see something in her eyes. “He’s with your college roommate.”

“I know. They’re a good match. I wish them well. I hope they lock themselves up and don’t harm others.” Chen Wei’er shrugged her shoulders.

“You…” He Xun was a little hesitant. Chen Wei’er’s expression was frank and open. He suddenly didn’t know what to say.

Chen Wei’er’s expression was a little distant. “The college roommate you were talking about is called Cao Yaoyao. We used to be…very close. At least, I honestly treated her as a friend. But I discovered she had found an old man in her first year at the university. That old man had a family. After I found out, I couldn’t treat her as a friend anymore.”

He Xun touched her head and said with relief, “You did the right thing. There’s no need to force people with different thoughts to be friends.”

“You know what? I wanted to help her back then… Those old men were too disgusting. One night, Cao Yaoyao came back with a high fever. There was not a single good spot on her body. I wanted to send her to the hospital, but she didn’t want anyone to know and refused to go. I saw her condition worsening, and I was afraid that calling for first aid would hurt her self-esteem, so I carried her… In the end, after she woke up, she scolded me for a long time, saying that I was born a rich lady so how could I understand her pain…”

Chen Wei’er looked dazed. How could she not know? She just felt that nothing was more important than her dignity and life. In her previous life, after she divorced He Xun, her life had been very hard, but she had never thought of betraying her dignity.

She had already cried so much, so why did she still hurt herself?

“Are you alright?” He Xun noticed that Chen Wei’er’s mood had suddenly become low, and he regretted mentioning this.

Chen Wei’er’s eyes became misty and confused. “He Xun, I’m sorry. I honestly don’t like Nie Suijing anymore. I was blind and deserved to be tricked by him. I’m truly sorry. I’m sorry for hurting you so much in my previous life. I’m sorry for being so willful and reckless and not taking care of your emotions. I’ll use all my warmth to make it up to you this time.”
