As soon as Huo Wei traveled to a new world and came back to her senses, she was enveloped by a heavy sadness. She felt so sad that she couldn't breathe. The desperation without any will to live made her cry uncontrollably.

Huo Wei didn't want to cry, but she had no choice. Tears kept gathering at the tip of her chin and dripping to the ground.

It had been a long time since Huo Wei last encounter with this kind of situation. Because the emotional impact was getting smaller and smaller. Every time Huo Wei traveled, she could adapt to it as soon as possible and dispel her emotions. Except for the first time when she traveled. That was the only time that Huo Wei had been so seriously affected by the emotions of the original host.

When Huo Wei heard someone talking, she didn't move at all. She covered her mouth and nose with her hands, and even her breath was light. She didn't dare to increase it. She lifted her eyelids silently and looked forward.

She was standing in the gap of a rockery, leaning softly against it to support her body from falling down. In front of her, there were thick leaves, which covered her tightly. The light could hardly shine in, but she could see the outside through a little gap and hear them clearly.

There were two young and handsome men outside. One was dressed in white brocade, with a long sword in his hand, the other in blue brocade and the jade flute in his hand. Huo Wei quickly matched them with the people in her memory and knew that they were the two cousins of the original host. The one holding the long sword was the eldest cousin, Mo Ziyue, and the one holding the jade flute was the second cousin, Mo Ziqian.

The original host's family was no longer alive. She had been living under the Mos for five years. Ziqian was her future husband.

Seeing the shocked look on Ziqian's face, Huo Wei saw he waved his hand anxiously and said, "Brother, no, how can I sacrifice your happiness to let you marry Huo Wei? She is my responsibility. I can't push her to you."

With a gentle smile on his face, Ziyue looked calm. He patted Ziqian's shoulder and said, "It doesn't matter. People outside only know that the Huos and the Mos have an engagement. My cousin has been in poor health for years and rarely shows up. No one knows whether you or I am the one who is engaged to her. You like Rongrong, and I don't have a girl I like. Isn't it a good thing?"

Ziqian was stunned. He was persuaded by him.

However, it was immoral to change the engagement, and it was his brother's turn, which made him uneasy. His face was full of hesitation and struggle. He frowned and said, "I'm so sorry, brother. I, I......Dad has high expectations for you. He has always wanted you to inherit the position of the leader of Wulin. How could your wife be a girl like Huo Wei? She knew nothing about Kung Fu! Yes, she can't be the wife of the leader of the Wulin just because of her physical and mental health."

Ziyue sighed, "You are my brother, and Rongrong has grown up like my sister. How can I see you trapped in love? Ziqian, it's settled then. My cousin is good. Although she is weak and timid since childhood, she is considerate, gentle, and considerate. She will be a good wife and a good mother in the future. I am willing to marry her. Don't think about marrying your cousin. In the future, The husband and wife will respect each other with respect. With her character, she will definitely feel wronged. Since you don't like her, why don't you let me marry her?"

Ziqian wavered even more. He didn't like Huo Wei, so he couldn't make her happy. If he married her, then Huo Wei, Liu Rongrong, and he, the three of them would be unhappy. He held the jade flute tightly and hesitated, "Father, mother... I'm afraid they won't agree."

"I'll talk to father and mother, and I'll talk to the cousin." Getting the problem all on himself, Ziyue patted Ziqian on the shoulder heavily and gave him a gentle smile. "Ziqian, don't think about it anymore. My cousin has been sad to see you with Rongrong today. If we don't solve it as soon as possible, something we don't want to see will happen. Well, if you don't have the heart to see your cousin, just let Rongrong take care of her. It's good for her to recover."
