o.After the meal, Huo Shaoting wiped his lips: "Dad, there's a case I need to go to the police station!"Ho Zhen Dong was displeased: “Does your case matter to your family”He gave Madam Huo a look: "Te...Zhang Chongguang greedily eyed Huo Xi.
She was still thin, but her complexion looked much better. She wore light makeup and dressed in a mature and elegant manner. If you didn't know her story, you wouldn't believe she had almost taken her own life not long ago.
He vaguely thought that letting go might be the right thing to do.
Knowing he shouldn't, he said he wouldn't see her again. But when they ran into each other, he couldn't help but call out to her and ask, "How have you been lately Are you still having trouble sleeping at night What about the child..."
He suddenly stopped and said no more.
Hoxi's eyes weren't actually cold, even more so than before, peaceful. Under the dim light, he saw her upper eyelid slightly sunken, a sign that collagen had been lost, not harming her beauty but reminding him that Hoxi was no longer young.
Hawsey looked at him quietly for a few seconds...
He thought she wouldn't speak to him, but to his surprise, she spoke softly: "It's alright! The child is also good."
Zhang Chongguang was a little surprised.
A glimmer of hope sparked in his heart. He gazed deeply into Huo Xi's eyes, weighing his words carefully before softly continuing, "If I can learn to respect you, to not pressure you, Huo Xi... would there still be..."
Ho Xi withdrew his gaze.
She turned to the driver and said, "Open the door!"
The driver opened the car door again. Zhang Chongguang's Adam's apple bobbed, he still wanted to say something, but Huo Xi had already turned and gotten into the car, giving him no chance at all.
The next second, the driver closed the car door.
Zhang Chongguang's remaining words lingered on his lips, carried away by the wind.
The driver naturally recognized him, smiled apologetically, drove around to the front of the car and quickly drove away.
Zhang Chongguang remained standing in the cold wind. As the wind blew, he couldn't help but cough for a while again.
A respectable middle-aged man came out of the next club, saw Zhang Chongguang and warmly took his shoulder: "Xia said you were here, I haven't seen you for a long time, so I came down to find you. Why... what beauty has kept Mr. Zhang"
Zhang Chongguang smiled faintly: "How could that be! I just ran into an acquaintance."
He naturally asked, "Who is so captivating that it keeps Mr. Zhang lingering"
Zhang Chongguang softly uttered two words: "Ex-wife."
The atmosphere was awkward. It took him a good while to recover, then he gave a dry laugh. "So it's Lawyer Huo. She's eating next door That Italian restaurant makes some pretty decent pasta... hahaha..."
Zhang Chongguang's good-looking thin lips smiled very subtly.
His marriage failed, though he discussed business at clubs, no one dared to arrange young women for him.
Everyone in City B knows that Mr. Zhang is heartbroken!
Zhang Chongguang only sat for an hour or so before leaving. He had driven himself over, and as he sat in his car, thinking about the evening encounter with Huo Xi, he couldn't help but drive to the Huo residence.
The Ho residence was brightly lit at night.
Zhang Chongguang sat in the car outside the gate, smoking quietly with the door open. He coughed occasionally...
Thus, they lived in a city.
They've known each other since childhood, they were childhood sweethearts, yet they were strangers to each other...
Zhang Chongguang hardly disturbed Xi, and even when seeing the children, he only picked them up from school, ate out with them, and sent them back. He didn't step into the Huo household again, remembering his own words.
He said he was going to give Hosse freedom back.
Occasionally, though he was often far away or outside, he could still catch a glimpse of her.
Perhaps because he stopped bothering him, Huo Xi saw that he was no longer cold, but there was absolutely no intention of getting back together with him… Zhang Chongguang sometimes thought, actually this was quite good.
She is doing well, the children are doing well, and there's another baby on the way.
He also has aspirations.
He began to work the 9-to-5 grind, he quit smoking and drinking, rarely indulging.
He thought, he had no hope left with Hoshi, but he still had to watch the children grow up properly...
*** Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
On Christmas Eve, the Huo family gathered together, even Lu Shuo and his wife, along with Lu You, came over.
Lu You came back from abroad and now works for a comic book company.
I guess I'm settled in city B now.
As glasses clinked and the younger generation chatted, Lu You casually asked An Ran, "An Ran sister, you said Li Siqi was coming too, right Where is she"
She gave Anran a thumbs up: "Anran, you're so magnanimous! Past rivals indeed!"
Huo Yunsi kicked her with his foot: "Don't talk nonsense! Be careful I throw you out."
Lu Yu hid behind An Ran, only then did she feel safe.
An Ran chuckled and grabbed Lu You's arm, pulling her out. She smiled and said, "She had something come up and was called away by Gu Siqi to make mini cakes. She said that since Mr. Gu wasn't there, she didn't have to spend Christmas with him."
Lu You wrinkled her nose: “Does she actually believe this The Gu family, father and daughter, teamed up to sell her, and she’s still helping count the money!”
Actually, Mr. Gu is really on a business trip, but she doesn't know if he will rush back tonight.
Lu You lost interest in the topic and her mind wandered elsewhere. She whispered, "When I first arrived, I saw..."
Ho Yunsi glanced at her, then tossed an orange into her mouth, effectively silencing her.
Need I say more
Almost every other day, Zhang Chongguang stood outside like a door god.
Nobody is blind! How can anyone not see
Lu You realized she had spoken out of turn and quickly closed her mouth. She sneakily glanced at Huo Xi... He was nonchalantly reading a fashion magazine, with Mianmian sitting beside him. Mianmian was working on a small craft project. Her hearing had mostly recovered recently.
Lu You's eyes welled up: Luckily!
Huo Yunsi threw another orange to her, then picked a big one, peeled it, and put it in Anran's hand. Anran didn't really like oranges, but Huo Yunsi stared at her lips and said, "Your lips are a little chapped, eat some vitamin C."
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Anran also gave him face, even though she thought he was childish.
Their youngest daughter, Huanhuan, supported herself by the sofa as she wobbled over to her father. She grinned, showing off her tiny, even teeth, which were incredibly cute.
An An wants to eat too!
Huo Yunshi called out: "Huo Linxi, peel an orange for your sister to eat."
Ho Shao-ting shook his head: only An Ran is willing to accept his son's temperament.
The Huo Yunsi couple didn't stay long and left with Huo Linxi and little Huo An'an. On Christmas Eve, some fine snow drifted across the sky, thankfully not much, softly diffusing in the night air.
Anran wanted to look, but the child was in the car. She peered through the window.
"Huo Yuns thought it snowed!"
Huo Yuns thought about getting in the car and took off his coat, putting on a thin sweater. He gripped the steering wheel, focusing intently on the road ahead, and let out a barely audible chuckle at the words.
Counting it up, Anran is also in her early thirties, but this phrase sounds quite girly.
That chuckle made An Ran blush slightly. How could she not know him
Hoan An, a little boy, was holding an apple and sitting in a child's chair. "Daddy is laughing at Mommy again," he said.
Unexpectedly, the father even hummed softly in agreement.
An Ran leaned back against the chair, tilted her head to look at her husband, and softly uttered four words: "The entrustment is not to the right person."
The next second, her hand was caught by him.ouse"Huo Yunsi leaned against the back seat and uttered a few words lightly, "Go to the apartment!"Lao Zhao wiped his face and got back behind the wheel.After a while, the old man's words started flow...
