had no intention of getting entangled with the surname Qu, she naturally walked past. Lu Qian's hand rested lightly on her shoulder and he asked in a low and gentle voice, "Have you been drinking""Jus...Before going to bed, Aunt Ruan applied a hot compress to Wen Man's feet.

She held Wenman's foot and said gently, "Take good care of it, don't get hurt!"

Wen Man pretended nothing happened: "Just a little scratch, it's nothing!"

When Aunt Ruan saw her slowly able to walk, she didn't think much of it.

She continued to apply a hot compress to Wen Man's injury, and only when she was almost finished did she hesitantly say, " Huo Shaoting has been downstairs for a long time, do you want to see him"

Wen Man was taken aback.

After a moment, she gently shook her head. "Let's talk in a few days. I don't feel up to it right now."

Auntie Ruan didn't pressure her.

She stroked Wen Man's head: "Mom doesn't know what happened to you, but Mom supports whatever decision you make... Just find a good partner. If this one doesn't work out, there will be another! My daughter is definitely capable of finding someone who suits her perfectly."

Wen Man smiled faintly when she heard this.

Aunt Ruan relaxed a little.

……

Time flew by, and soon it was Wen Beryan's seventh day after death. Wen Man's foot had also mostly recovered.

She went to pay respects with Aunt Ruan.

The weather is bright and sunny, with flowers blooming everywhere.

Before Wen Ber's and Lu Xiaoman's tombstones, there was a fresh bouquet of lilies.

Aunt Ruan guessed it was sent by Qiao Jingnian. She glanced at Wen Man, who expressionlessly tossed the bouquet aside and placed a small daisy there!

Aunt Ruan let out a soft sigh.

……

They stayed at the cemetery for a long time. When they came out, it was almost noon.

A golden Continental was parked at the entrance of the cemetery. Huo Shaoting leaned against the car, smoking, enveloped in the warm spring breeze, yet radiating an air of gloom.

He has lost some weight, but he is still handsome.

Wen Man did not avoid him. She always needed to make things clear between them.

As the row approached, Huo Shaoting's gaze intensified.

He said, "I'll send you back!"

Auntie Ruan saw that Wen Man was about to make a clean break, so she took the initiative and said, "I'll take the car back myself, Wen Man, you talk to him."

Wen Man nodded and told her to be careful.

Auntie Ruan quickly got into a taxi and went home first.

Ho Shaoting flicked his cigarette away, opened the car door and said gently, “Get in!”

Wen Man sat in the co-pilot seat.

Although she could walk, she wasn't as nimble and her wounds still ached occasionally.

Huo Shaoting also got into the car, closed the door and slowly fastened his seat belt, but his eyes fell on her feet and he asked softly, "Does your foot still hurt"

Wen Man lowered her head to look at her feet, a faint smile playing on her lips.

"Much better, thank you for your concern."

Ho Shaoting didn't start the car right away. He turned his head to look at Wen Man, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Wen Man, I like you. I don't want to break up! Let's start over. In the future, I won't see her again, at most just the case agent."

Wen Man listened quietly.

She showed no joy or sorrow, like an outsider.

She even smiled faintly: " Huo Shaoting, let's find a place!"

He Huo Shaoting placed his slender fingers on the steering wheel, curling them gently. After a long silence, he smiled: "Good."

Half an hour later, he took her to a high-end restaurant.

The restaurant was booked in advance, just for the two of them.

Wen Man didn't eat anything, only ordering a cup of coffee. She gently caressed the porcelain cup with her slender fingers, her heart aching with bitterness.

These days, she figured out Huo Shaoting's intentions.

He is trying to win her back.

But wouldn't it be too insincere to try and mend someone's broken heart after having hurt them so deeply

He always gave her what he was willing to give, while she poured her whole heart into this relationship. Knowing it was like a moth flying into a flame, she still went for it without hesitation.

She came from a completely different social background than him, so she went and studied those interests that she didn't like.

Flower arrangement, pastries…

His ex, his white moonlight, was the famous Qiao Jingnian's daughter. She was willing to leave her hometown and study abroad in France just to be worthy of him.

Wen Man looked back and thought it was ridiculous.

……

After finishing half a cup of coffee, she spoke softly: "Ho Shaoting, let's end this."

Ho Shao-ting's gaze fell upon her face.

After a long silence, he said very slowly, "Perhaps it's best if we separate for a while and cool off."

Wen Man did not evade his gaze, she smiled lightly.

"I mean, truly over! The kind where we never contact each other again! No calls or texts for holidays or birthdays, nothing like that!"

Wen Man finished speaking...

Ho Shao-ting suddenly called the waiter: "Bring two sets of meals."

The waiter smiled and said, "Certainly, Mr. Huo. Your meal will be served in ten minutes!"

……

Wen Man couldn't help but say, " Huo Shaoting"

……

Ho Shao-ting refused to budge: "Finish eating and then we'll talk!"

The Western meal was served, and only Huo Shaoting ate it.

He ate for a long time, but he had no taste for his food.

He was actually waiting, waiting for Wen Man to regret and take back her words of breaking up... But it's water under the bridge, Wen Man had already made up her mind, so how could she change it easily

Ho Shao-ting wiped his lips with a napkin.

He asked her softly, "Have you thought it through Are you really sure about this"

He lived with her for a long time and they had countless relationships. They were happy together, and Huo Shaoting didn't see any reason to break up completely because of Qiao An!

Wen Man softly hummed in agreement.

She said, "I've made up my mind. Let's end it!"

Ho Shaoting was born a prodigy. Besides Qiao An, the only woman he had ever coaxed was Wen Man. Now that she proposed a breakup, he could tell her mind was made up.

He thought: If this relationship made Wen Man uncomfortable and unhappy, it would be better for them to let go of each other.

Next, it's going to be an unpleasant conversation!

He's a wealthy young master. When he breaks up with a woman, he has to give her something, has to be decent to the girl for the time she spent with him...

Ho Shaoting thought for a moment: "That apartment, I'll have Zhang secretary transfer it to your name!"

That apartment is worth hundreds of millions. If it were an ordinary girl, she would surely be delighted.

Wen Man never expects money from him when she's with him.

But at this point, he flung money at her, and she wasn't angry. She simply said to him in a calm voice, "I don't want the apartment!"

Ho Shao-ting was slightly taken aback.

Wen Man still gazed at him.

Huo Shaoting understood, so he took out his checkbook and wrote down a series of 50 million.

Then gently pushed it to her.

He said calmly and politely, "Wen Man, that's over between us! If you need any help in the future, you can contact Zhang's secretary."

Wen Man didn't refuse.

She folded the check and put it in her purse.

She thanked him honestly and made one last request: "Mr. Huo, I still have some things in the apartment that I want to take."

He Shaoting took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a long drag.

He gazed at her with depth in his eyes, a faint smile playing on his lips: "Alright! It's convenient for me to not stay there these days! Just give the keys to Zhang when you're done."

Wen Man politely thanked him.

She got up to leave, and Huo Shaoting was still somewhat courteous, wanting to see her off.

Wen Man shook her head.

She stood up and smiled faintly: “No need to see me off, Mr. Huo! Thank you for your help to my father these days... Now we're even! From now on... goodbye!”

Wen Man walked out of the restaurant slowly.

He remained seated, watching her slender back through a pane of glass. Suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his eyes...

He thought, it must be the sun too bright!s eyes, Lu You was no longer the naive young girl she once was. She managed the company in his place, and she did a good job...She had become a mature woman.For a long time, Ye Bai lowered his head, a...
