ringing this up every day..."She couldn't hold it in anymore and felt wronged.Ho Shao-ting said nothing more, sat down on the sofa and lit a cigarette.Wen Man started clearing the table, packing up th...Lin stared at her.

He remained silent for a long time, facing his former wife, a woman he pitied but did not love.

He was exposed like that.

Shén Qīnglián smiled lightly and said softly, "Actually, I knew it a long time ago!"

She suddenly clung to him, lightly raising her body to whisper in his ear, "Actually, we could cooperate! You give the child a legal identity. When Zhang Chongguang and Huo Xi get tired of each other, you pursue Huo Xi, and I, having Zhang family lineage, can stay by his side legitimately. Wouldn't this be a win-win situation"

Lin looked down at her.

His Adam's apple bobbed slightly; truly, Shen Qinglian's proposition was tempting.

But Lin couldn't accept it!

He told her he wanted to remarry out of genuine sympathy, wanting to give her and the child a home. But now it seems like it was just his wishful thinking. Shen Qinglian doesn't need his pity; she knows how to take care of herself.

Lin pushed her away suddenly.

His chest heaved: “I couldn’t do that!”

Shen Qinglian took a step back, her expression somewhat stunned. After a long while, she gave him a cold smile: "Lin Cong, what are you being so aloof about You dare say you've never had any improper thoughts for Huo Xi If that's the case, what's the meaning of your parents begging the Huo family to arrange a marriage"

Lin looked a bit disheveled.

Shen Qinglian was not actually wrong, but she felt that he had been good to her. For several years of marriage, she had prevented him from touching her and he had never betrayed her. When she later wanted to pursue Zhang Chongguang, he also let her go. Why was she now speaking harshly to him

Lin has always been privileged since he was a child, and he couldn't understand.

His mother was so angry that she had surgery, but Shen Qinglian, her mind was still on Zhang Chongguang's matter. Suddenly, Lin Cong felt tired, he thought that these years with her were simply a wrong payment!

Lin calmed down and her voice softened a bit: "That's something that will happen after we divorce! Qinglian, be more tactful! ... We'll just forget about it!"

Shen Qinglian was stunned.

She didn't believe that Lin would be willing to reject her. Besides, when they got married, he had clearly said he would take care of her for life, never leaving or forsaking her!

Why are you backtracking now

Shen Qinglian's voice was hoarse: "Lin, don't you want to take care of me anymore What am I supposed to do What about the child in my belly"

Lin's voice was icy: "You can find the child's biological father!"

Shen Qinglian's voice was hysterical: "Lin Cong, you bastard!"

Lin from didn't want to stay here anymore!

He opened the door and rushed out, desperate to breathe some fresh air.

Talking with Shen Qinglian made him feel suffocated!

Behind the door, the sound of Shen Qinglian breaking things could be heard. If it were before, Lin Cong would definitely be afraid that she would hurt herself, but now he was numb to it!

His father was right, why should he fight with his own parents for Shen Qinglian, and...and... make things difficult for Huo Xi, and hurt the person he truly liked.

Over the past few years, he's practically been living in a ua.

Now, he is awake!

When Lin came back, his father was taking care of his mother. Hearing the footsteps, he knew it was that son who didn't amount to anything and couldn't help but let out a light hum: "Dare you come back"

Lin Cong stepped forward and took the hot towel from his father's hand.

"Dad, I'll take care of it!"

Lin's father's finger stiffened.

He wanted to scold him again, but after all, he was his own son. These years had not been easy for him, and in the end, he couldn't bear to scold him any longer. He just let out a light sigh: "Lin Cong, your mother and I are only doing this for your own good! Even if the other party comes from a humble background, it doesn't matter. What matters is that they have good character and are sincere to you. But Shen Qinglian, she's not like that at all! If you still want to be with her, then your mother and I will close our eyes that day and won't rest in peace!"

Lin's throat tightened slightly.

For a moment, he gently knelt down, his voice choked with emotion: "Dad, I'm sorry! I've already talked to her, and I promise from now on, I won't involve myself with her anymore!"

"I hope you truly see through her!"

Lin has never spoken!

It was late at night when he bought dinner outside. When he returned to the hospital, a nurse waited for him outside the ward and anxiously said to him, "Mr. Lin Miss Shen couldn't bear it any longer and cut|her wrists. She wants to see you!"

Lin was taken aback.

For a moment, he softly said, “I have nothing to do with her! You’ve got the wrong person!”

The nurse panicked: "Are you her ex-husband She's pregnant with your child. Even if you're not married anymore, you should take responsibility!"

Lin's eyes turned red with anger: "Who told you that you are my child"

The nurse whispered, “It was Miss Shen who said it. She said it was your love child!”

Lin desperately suppressed his emotions. After a moment, his voice was hoarse: "I've never had any love for her, only use and deceit. Do you understand You don't understand anything! Get out of here! Don't come to me about her anymore!"

The nurse's face flushed red and white.

She left in a huff, Lin feeling down. He went to the end of the corridor for a cigarette before returning to the ward...

At this point, he was determined to draw a clear line between himself and Shen Qinglian!

……

Ho Xi followed Zhang Chongguang back to the room.

Before he even stepped inside, he unbuttoned his coat and placed it lightly on the sofa. He turned to address Huo Xi, perhaps to offer an explanation.

Ho Xi casually said, "You smell a bit! I'll go take a wash... how about we eat Japanese food later There's a row of Japanese restaurants by the river that look good!"

Zhang Chongguang said nothing.

His brows were even slightly furrowed, Huo Xi stepped forward and gently stroked them, whispering: "It's just idle talk from idlers. Our Mr. Zhang isn't such a petty person, is he"

He then spoke, "Aren't you angry"

"What's there to be angry about"

Huo Xi smiled: "I don't hold grudges against people! I'll be angry if you do something wrong, but this is entirely a matter between Lin Cong and Shen Qinglian. Why should I get involved It's foolish to torture yourself with other people's affairs, Zhang Zong. That makes you look stupid!"

She finished speaking and then prepared to go into the bathroom for a shower.

The next second, she was caught in Zhang Chongguang's embrace. His palm gently pressed against her head, guiding her to lean against his chest.

Here we go again!

Hosei's heart pounded.

She was actually quite tall, but Zhang Chongguang was 185cm, always finding a way to make her seem slender and fragile beside him, leaning against him like that.

She's the same age as him, but he always finds a way to make her feel like a little girl!

not the seasoned Mr. Huo lawyer!

Huo Xi's nose bumped into him, turning slightly red, and her voice was a little hoarse. When she spoke, it sounded like she was acting coquettishly: "Zhang Chongguang... what are you doing"

"Don't do anything! I just want to hug you!"

He leaned down and kissed her hair, his voice softer than before: "Ho Xi, it's so nice to meet you!"

"Just happy"

"More than just happy! A little bit more!"

……

Huo Xi's face was pressed against his neck, her two slender arms wrapped around his waist. They held each other tightly in the gentle evening for a while before she softly spoke, "Zhang Chongguang, I smell awful! Can you please let me go take a bath"t in the car."Gu Changqing seemed to have known this all along. He slightly curled his lips and opened the car door to get in.He had barely gotten into the car when Huo Shaoting started it. The luxury...
