, I have a meeting to start in a few minutes. My driver is already waiting!"Ho Shao-ting stepped forward, blocking him with a forced smile. "It won't take my uncle much time," he said, his tone laced..."With that said, Lu Xun felt a little reassured. "
She worriedly asked again, "Then what about her and Brother Chongguang..."
Lu Shuo said lightly, "They're out of the game!"
Lu Xun wanted to ask, but he didn't dare. He went home with a stomach full of words he couldn't say. Fortunately, the child took her attention away, and she didn't continue to probe any further...
……
Zhang Chongguang took the photo.
He specially customized a crystal photo frame and placed it on his bedside table. He looked at it morning and night, unable to bear to part with it.
Such a fair and tender little one, she must be his daughter.
He's just a little skinny!
Was it because I didn't eat well as a child
He couldn't help but worry, so he dialed that number that hadn't been used in three years. This time, it was still the same message: "Sorry, the number you dialed is currently out of service and cannot be reached..."
Zhang Chongguang's face was devoid of any expression.
His hand, slowly falling, just like every day for the past three years.
He gently stroked the little figure in the photograph, his heart filled with longing and yearning that bordered on resentment towards Huo Xi.
Just then, the phone that had fallen to the floor rang.
She is his secretary.
The secretary's voice couldn't hide her excitement: "Mr. Zhang, Miss Huo has a new flight, direct from England to City B... just one week later."
Zhang Chongguang remained silent and motionless.
The secretary over there seemed a little uneasy.
After a long pause, his Adam's apple bobbed and he croaked out, "I understand!"
Half an hour after the phone call ended, his blood flow returned to normal, and he finally felt truly present.
Ho Xi is really back.
She is back!
It's not just Huo Xi, but also their daughter Mian Mian. Zhang Chongguang has already begun to look for gifts for Mian Mian eagerly. The two-year-old girl must like cute and soft animals.
Should you get her a kitten, or a puppy
Zhang Chongguang looked up a lot of information online and consulted several female subordinates with children at the company. Finally, he personally chose a two-month-old Dalmatian puppy and named it Xiao Guang.
Prepared for Mianmian.
He kept thinking that having a child would be better if they lived in a villa. He imagined his little girl playing with her dog on the lawn… Thinking about this scene, Zhang Chongguang couldn't sleep for days.
……
One week later, B City International Airport.
Huo Xi didn't take a private jet, but a regular flight. As soon as they got off the plane, Mian Mian took her hand and whispered to Huo Xi that she needed to use the restroom. Huo Xi took her there.
Two-and-a-half-year-old Mianmian can already use the potty independently, and Hoxi is waiting for her outside.
In a little while, the little fellow pulled up his pants and came out.
She's too short to reach the sink.
Huoxi picked her up and patiently washed her little hands, even teaching her how to wash them herself.
Huo Xi smiled gently, leaning down to kiss the little one in her arms: "Good boy!"
chuckled softly.
Huo Xi raised his eyes, about to take Mian Mian down, but his gaze fixed on the mirror.
Is Zhang Chongguang.
He was dressed in a suit and tie, looking very much like he had just come from work.
You've lost weight.
But after all, he is at the best age for a man, still radiating mature charm.
He was in the mirror, staring into her eyes.
Huo Xi didn't pretend not to know him, smiling faintly: "What a coincidence!" After that, she lowered her eyes and was unwilling to look at him again.
Zhang Chongguang spoke after a pause, his voice raspy: "It's a shame! I came here specifically to pick you up!"
His eyes fell on the little girl.
The little girl stared at him timidly, her face slightly tense, obviously not knowing him.
I'm still a little scared.
Ho Xi gently embraced the little one's shoulder and said warmly, "Call me uncle!"
"Uncle!" Huo Mianmian called out very obediently.
Zhang Chongguang's face was slightly pale——
Call him Uncle!
There was a misunderstanding between them, but she left for three years without a word. Now that they've met again, does she not even acknowledge that the child is his
But they mustn't argue in front of the children. He restrained himself with a grunt and then whispered, "The car's outside, let's go!"
Ho Xi didn't move; she gently pressed her shoulder against the little one.
Zhang Chongguang had taken a few steps and noticed that no one was following him. He couldn't help but turn around.
Ho Xi looked at him, softly saying, “I won’t go with you!”
He pursed his lips slightly, perhaps because of his age, he seemed a bit stricter than before.
Huoxi's face was calm: "Zhang Chongguang, you didn't need to come pick me up. We were over a long time ago, and there is nothing between us anymore!"
Zhang Chongguang suppressed his emotions: "Huo Xi, do you know what you're saying"
Obviously, in front of the child, Hosi didn't want to argue with him.
She was about to politely decline when a slender figure walked up. Seeing Huo Xi, she asked very gently, "Why so long The driver is already waiting outside!"
After Bai Qi finished speaking, he only then noticed Zhang Chongguang.
He was taken aback for a moment, then smiled faintly: "Mr. Zhang!"
...was not at all flustered, as if he had met an old acquaintance by chance, a very ordinary encounter. ...
But this was a big shock for Zhang Chongguang.
Bai Qi, has he been by Huo Xi's side all along
For three years, he had been searching, for three years... Had Bai Qi taken his place and become Huo Xi's lover
He didn't want to think too much, but Bai Qi skillfully picked up Mianmian with one hand. With one palm gently supporting her, she lay obediently on his shoulder, her whole body soft and relaxed.
Bai Qi leaned his head and kissed her.
Mianmian laughed with glee: "Daddy's bad!"
Little Daddy...
Zhang Chongguang's pupils almost burst, he stared at Huo Xi with all his might: "You...you..."
Bai Qi remained silent.
He looked at Hsi quietly, while Hsi was very open: "For these three years, I've been with him!"
Zhang Chongguang's body suddenly took a step back.
Huo Xi let Bai Qi take his daughter away first.
Staring at them blankly, as if half-understanding...
After everyone else left, Huo Xi only then lowered his gaze and said in a soft voice, "Who I'm with seems to be none of Zhang Zong's business! The reason I said so much is just to make it clear to you, please don't disturb my life in the future!"
Zhang Chongguang still stared at her, unwavering.
Huo Xi said calmly, "I don't want Bai Qi to misunderstand! We have a very good relationship!"
Zhang Chongguang looked at her, Huo Xi didn't expect him to say anything, she directly brushed past him and left... As she was leaving, Zhang Chongguang suddenly grabbed her wrist.
His posture was lowered, his voice raspy: "Hoxi, I've waited for you for three years! Even when sentencing someone to death, they should at least be allowed to plead their case, shouldn't they"
At this point, he had no time to worry about Baiqi.aking: "Mingzhu, you also saw how dangerous it is to be by my side."She wanted to say, she wasn't afraid.Lu Qian smiled gently, gazing at her and softly asking, "Then what can you do for me by staying...
