en Man treated him as a stand-in.Now, she openly treats him as a substitute!Ho Shao-ting flicked his cigarette out, about to step into the hall when Huo Zhending came out with Shuoshuo. Seeing his son...The lights were dim.

Ho Shaoting's face was dark and uncertain. He had been impulsive just now. If Wen Man hadn't stopped him, he would have taken her by now...

But what could be done once it had taken hold of her body

At most, it is physical satisfaction.

Not enough!

He didn't think it was enough, he wanted more than this!

Wen Man's fingers trembled as she fastened the buttons.

She didn't even turn her head, walking upstairs. She probably had weak legs and stumbled midway.

Ho Shao-ting did not stop.

He didn't go upstairs to see the children again; he was a little upset.

When he sat in the car, he lit a cigarette.

The other day he decided to give up, just like Wen Man said, maybe it's for the best if they separate.

But a little boy broke through his defenses.

He felt uneasy.

He couldn't imagine what would happen if he let go. Under the relentless pursuit of those young boys, would Wen Man...play with their feelings!

Huo Shaoting sat in the car, slowly smoking.

Smoke rose, filling the car and obscuring his face.

He smoked four or five cigarettes before easing his foot on the gas pedal and leaving the villa. The guards at the villa's gate looked a little uncomfortable when they saw him...

Late at night, Huo Shaoting returned to the Huo residence.

Ho Chin had not yet gone to sleep, clearly waiting for him.

Huo Shaoting walked in and sat down on the sofa, letting out a long sigh.

Ho Zhen Dong glared at him, saying with displeasure, "Don't you have a place to live You have to squeeze in with us old folks"

Ho Shaoting closed his eyes slightly: "Isn't Mingzhu also living at home"

Ho-Chun chuckled, "Can your sister possibly be the same as you"

He Shaoting smiled.

"Look at him, the father said after a long pause, unwillingly. "Since you divorced Wen Man, your mother has been crying all the time. Tell me yourself, how useless are you!"

Ho Shaoting narrowed his eyes.

He seemed lost in thought for a moment, and then he softly asked, "Dad, do you also hope we remarry"

Ho Zhen dong gave a light cough.

He spoke slowly, "I didn't mean it that way! It doesn't really matter to me whether you get back together or not. What my mom and I meant was, if you moved out, maybe Wen Man would be willing to move back home."

And they even brought their grandchildren!

Ho Shao-ting was both amused and exasperated: "Dad, how could Wen Man possibly move back!"

Ho Zhen Dong glared at him.

After a while, he got up and walked upstairs, shaking his head as he went: "It's better to just forget about it and not come home!"

The lights were too bright; he found them glaring and blinding.

When alone, he couldn't help but think about what had just happened.

He and Wen Man were both mature adults, yet they were also in their prime. Neither of them was comfortable stopping halfway through.

He really wanted her!

I can't say for sure what it is about her that makes her so appealing.

I just want to have this person all to myself!

Huomingzhu slowly came down from upstairs, holding her phone in her hand.

She wanted to make the call in the yard. Lu Qian had made the call, but she didn't dare answer it upstairs for fear her parents would hear. She didn't want to go downstairs and run into Huo Shaoting.

Huo Mingzhu hung up the phone.

She sat beside Huo Shaoting and asked, "Brother! Are you still thinking about your sister-in-law"

He reached out and put his arm around his sister's shoulders.

Huo Mingzhu leaned against his shoulder. The siblings hadn't been this close in a long time. She was soft and tender, just like when she was a child, leaning her head against her brother's.

"After a long pause, Huo Shaoting said in a hoarse voice, "Tell me about you and my sister-in-law!""

Huo Mingzhu sounded a little puzzled: "Brother, why are you asking that"

"You said so!"

Ho Mingzhu wasn't very cunning. She recounted everything from the beginning, using her fingers to count as she went. Fortunately, she was good friends with Wen Man, who had told her about many things...

He Shao-ting listened quietly.

Deep into the night, at 4 am.

Huo Mingzhu's mouth was dry from talking, and she was so tired: "Brother, that's about it!"

Ho Shao-ting patted her head and said softly, "Go to sleep first!"

Ho Mingzhu was uneasy: "Brother, what's wrong with you today"

Ho Shao-ting smiled and didn't say anything...

He sat downstairs for about half an hour, until it was almost dawn, before going to his bedroom. He sat at the foot of the bed and opened a notebook.

Yes, he made a copy of his notebook.

He went through what Shaoting had left behind, along with what Mingzhu had said.

前後貫通……

The next day, the Yingjie Firm.

Zhang, the secretary, watched Huo Shaoting sign the document and was about to take it out to distribute when Huo Shaoting called her back: "Zhang, please check an address for me."

Zhang's secretary was quite surprised: "Mr. Huo, are you going to work overtime"

Huo Shaoting lightly tugged at his collar and cleared his throat: "No! It's Wen Man's mother! She lives in city B now, right"

Ms. Zhang smiled: "No need to check! I often send things over for Mr. Wen!"

She wrote the address to Huo Shaoting.

An hour later, Huo Shaoting carried a full bag of things and knocked on Aunt Ruan's apartment door.

"Who is it!" Aunt Ruan came to open the door and then stood dumbfounded.

"Shaoting..."

Huo Shaoting smiled and walked in, calling warmly, "Mom, I came to see you!"

Aunt Ruan;...

Although Huo Shaoting and Wen Man are divorced now, their past was complicated. Ruan Yi didn't want to be cold towards her: "Come on over if you want to. What are you buying all this for Wen Man bought me things that I haven't finished yet!"

What she really wanted to know was, how are they doing now!

Ho Shao-ting took off his jacket and hung it on the rack.

He naturally slipped into indoor slippers and squatted down to open a package. "It's not food! It's a foot bath massager. I heard Zhang's secretary say this brand is especially good for leg pain... Mom, let me fill it with water and you can try it!"

After Huo Shaoting finished speaking, he went to the restroom to fill a basin of water.

Aunt Ruan was startled.

This mouthful, another foot soak and personal service, she can't stand it! She secretly went to her room and sent a WeChat message to Wen Man: [Did you get back together with Shaoting He came to me.]

Just as he finished his sentence, he raised his head and saw Huo Shaoting standing at the door.

Aunt Ruan smiled a little uncomfortably.

Ho Shaoting smiled: "Mom, we haven't made up! I came over today just to see you."

He supported Aunt Ruan, very gently: "Come and try the water temperature! It's not suitable for me to go in again!"

Aunt Ruan was smitten by her ex-son-in-law's tenderness!

Shaoting people are handsome, when they truly want to please someone, no one can resist.

But Aunt Ruan doted on her daughter, and after much deliberation, she said: "Shaoting, I'm very happy that you came. But... about your and Manman's situation, I still have to respect her decision!"

Ho Shaoting gently massaged her calf, a faint smile playing on his lips: "Mom, where did your mind go I just wanted to chat with you and learn about Wen Man's childhood!"

Auntie Ruan's heart softened.

She thought of the past, of the time she and Wen Beryan spent raising Wen Man together.

She was quite touched and spoke a little too much.

Ho Shao-ting had been listening patiently all along, and then stayed for dinner there. When he drove back, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.his shoulders and back, letting out helpless "Hmm... Hmm..." sounds...Lu Shuo let go of her.Her lips were rosy and inviting, and he couldn't help but suck on them for a moment.On New Year's Eve, peopl...
