Huo Zhi's Grievance

"What... do you mean?"

Huo Zhi was somewhat confused, but seeing Huo Yue's expression, she had no choice but to stop.

"Hehe, my husband is now the Thunder Clan's Young Patriarch. What do you think the consequences would be if we discussed this matter with the Thunder Clan now?" Huo Yue wore an expression that said she had Huo Zhi completely figured out.

Upon hearing the words "Young Patriarch," Huo Zhi's expression darkened somewhat.

If Lei Qi had merely been a prodigy of the Thunder Clan, still the same Lei Qi as before, she would have had a chance to call off the engagement.

But Lei Qi was now the Young Patriarch. If she did such a thing, would she not truly be slapping the Thunder Clan in the face?

This was not something her father could control. Perhaps her father would suffer considerable pressure as well.

"Huff."

Huo Zhi took a deep breath, then finally turned around and said, "Huo Yue, aren't you treating me like this because you're dissatisfied? But you need to know that I am the principal wife!"

"Husband~" Huo Yue looked toward Lei Qi.

"Huo Zhi, is this how the Flame Clan taught you?" Lei Qi said blandly.

Although she was the principal wife, Lei Qi knew very well that this would only be possible if he became outstanding enough for the Flame Clan to want to curry favor with him.

And when that time came, would it not all depend on him anyway?

For now, Huo Yue was his wife. Naturally, Lei Qi could not indulge Huo Zhi.

When Huo Zhi saw Lei Qi openly defending Huo Yue, she understood even more clearly that from the moment she had entered this room, she had been at a disadvantage.

"What do you want?" Huo Zhi
