o Shao-ting stopped writing and picked up the package to open it.Secretary Zhang coughed lightly: "Wen Man is back!"Huo Shaoting was clearly startled.He looked up at Zhang's secretary, his voice sligh...Huo Xi followed Zhang Chongguang out, Wen Man ultimately still chased after him.
"Glory."
Wen Man softly called out a name, gently closing the door behind her, obviously not wanting Huo Shaoting to hear.
Zhang Chongguang turned around. Although his face was pale, he looked very gentle overall, unlike the gloom that surrounded him when they first divorced. Perhaps it was because of the agreement he reached with Huo Xi, giving him another chance.
He was revitalized by this opportunity.
He knew what Wen Man wanted to say, so he glanced at Huo Xi's face and said softly, "Mom, rest assured, I won't force Huo Xi to do anything she doesn't want to do."
Wen Man slowly stepped forward, she gently patted Zhang Chongguang's arm, and said: "I heard Lao Zhao say that your body hasn't been very well recently. Take care of yourself and don't overwork."
Although these words were said for Huo Xi, Zhang Chongguang's heart also tightened suddenly.
He had a deep affection for the couple, Huo Shaoting and his wife.
But a man nearing 40 couldn't just blurt that out, he moved his Adam's apple slightly and finally just hummed softly: "Mom, I'll take Huo Xi back first."
Wen Man reluctantly couldn't bear it, but could only bear it.
……
Zhang Chongguang took Huo Xi downstairs and got in the car.
After getting into the car, Huo Xi remained silent. She wasn't as cold as before, but they always spent long periods apart, and she didn't know what else to say to him besides about their child.
Suddenly, her hand was grasped.
When his palm came into contact with hers, it wasn't very warm. In fact, it was a bit cold.
Hoshie instinctively wanted to pull her hand away, but the grip on it tightened, and she could even feel his fingertips lightly rubbing against her wrist.
subtly, without a trace
Huo Xi's fingers curled slightly, repeating the action several times, but she didn't struggle against his grasp.
Zhang Chongguang just held her hand, doing nothing else... The black RV drove steadily, and Zhang Chongguang in the back seat thought, if time could stay at this moment forever, it would be good. He could just stay with Huo Xi.
Ho Xi gazed out the window.
She saw a woman on the street, ragged and dressed in rags, kneeling and begging for food.
Slender in build, but with a broken leg.
She had two buttons missing from her floral blouse, revealing a patch of white skin. But her hair was unkempt and dirty, and her face was blackened, obscuring her true features... The woman kept bowing to passersby, hoping for some coins or a piece of bread out of pity.
She reminded him of someone.
"Park here," Hosie said softly.
The driver slowed down and said naturally, "Madam, you can't park here. Stopping would be against the rules."
"As the mistress wishes," Zhang Chongguang replied, his tone flat.
The driver didn't dare say anything more. He quickly stopped the car and pulled over to the side of the road.
As soon as the car stopped, Huo Xi opened the door and stumbled back towards home. Her postpartum body was weak. Zhang Chongguang followed behind her, but she couldn't hear him calling out.
Half a minute later, Huo Xi slowed his pace.
Her heart pounded wildly, and she slowly extended her slender hand, wanting to see if the woman was the one.
Zhang Chongguang came to her side.
He held her shoulders in his hands, feeling Hoshi's trembling beneath them. His voice was a hoarse whisper: "This isn't her, Hoshi. She's gone."
Ho Xi turned to look at him, her eyes a little less cold than before. "How did you know"
She insisted on seeing it, Zhang Chongguang was helpless and could only take out five hundred-yuan bills from his wallet and give them to the woman. He gestured with his hands a few times, not caring whether the woman understood or not, anyway, he couldn't let the people around him understand.
A woman with money in her hands will do anything.
Ho Xi brushed the hair from her forehead.
Her facial features and eyes are different. This is not Songyun.
Ho Xi's body went limp, and suddenly she lost her strength... The woman didn't understand what had happened. She looked up at the pale-faced woman. She was so beautiful, and elegant.
For 500 yuan, the woman kept kowtowing.
Ho Xi watched her silently, tears welling up suddenly in the corners of her eyes, overwhelming and uncontrollable. Zhang Chongguang embraced her, wiping away her tears, and said softly, "Windy! Let's go back to the car."
Huo Xi then asked him, "Zhang Chongguang, how much money do you have on you"
Her tone wasn't as cold as usual, and when she called him Zhang Chongguang, it was as if she were from before. He was willing to die for these three words, Zhang Chongguang. He quickly took out all the money from his wallet, about four or five thousand. If he gave this amount to a random, unrelated woman, it would be enough. But now he wanted to please Huo Xi, so he said, "I'll take you to your car first. There's an ATM ahead, I'll go withdraw tens of thousands."
Huo Xi ultimately got on the car.
She waited in the car while the driver followed Zhang Chongguang to run errands. He kept withdrawing money from several cards until he took out over 100,000 yuan and gave it all to her.
The woman had never seen so much money, she kept bowing her head.
At this moment, a little girl, about ten years old, ran over and bowed her head like a woman.
It's very pitiful.
Zhang Chongguang wasn't usually a compassionate person, nor was Huo Xi. But today the woman's appearance struck a nerve. Zhang Chongguang thought for a moment and told the driver, "Take her to the hospital and see if her leg has any hope. All medical expenses will be covered by me."
The driver said he was a good person.
The woman and the child also kowtowed to him.
On his way back home, Zhang Chongguang thought to himself, "What kind of good person am I I even haggled with my adoptive father over a blood transfusion. I, Zhang Chongguang, have never been a saint."
He sat in the driver's seat, turning his head to ask gently, "Are you okay"
Ho Xi remained silent.
Zhang Chongguang thought for a moment, then still told her: “She’s dead! So she won't appear before us again, Huo Xi. Everything is over! Let’s all forget about that period, okay”
Huo Xi's fingers trembled slightly: Song Yun died
She had seen Song Yun's tragic state, and she could almost imagine how Song Yun died, certainly dying a hundredfold more tragically in that dilapidated house, and dying in an undignified manner.
About remembering those dark times,
Zhang Chongguang's handsome face was tinged with gloom, his long eyebrows slightly furrowed. He wanted to smoke but with Huo Xi in the car, he only took out a pack of mint candies from the glove compartment and popped one in his mouth.
After a long silence, he calmed down and said in a low voice, "Let's not mention it again, okay"
< Huo Xi did not say good, nor did he say bad. >
She said, "Go to the hospital and pick up the child!"
This little incident was over. After picking up the child at the hospital, he drove straight back to Zhang Chongguang's villa. As they were about to get out of the car, Huo Xi hugged the child and said, "Have the nursery where Rui Rui used to live cleaned up."
Zhang Chongguang got out of the car and walked over to her.
The servant carried the luggage, Zhang Chongguang held the baby, carefully holding the package to protect the infant from the wind, and with one hand he put a shawl on Huo Xi. He said softly: "I have prepared a new nursery for you, go upstairs and see if you like it."
Ho Xi was a little surprised, but then he understood his intentions.
She said good.d at the woman beside him. His voice was hoarse but gentle as he said, "Go wash up, or you'll be uncomfortable!"Wen Man's face was slightly flushed, she put on his shirt and slipped into the bathroom....
