nd pulling her into his arms, letting her lean against him.He knew that after all they'd been through, he could easily win her heart and body by simply concealing the truth from her.But he was afraid,...Wen Man went upstairs.

As she walked up to the second floor, she couldn't help but glance down.

Huo Shao-ting's car was still there, a luxurious gold Bentley Continental out of place in the old neighborhood. This place wasn't where someone like Huo Shao-ting, with his status, should be.

Wen Man thought, Lawyer Huo should appear at the high society wine party.

Everything that happened tonight was like a ripple in her life, something she'd forget after a good night's sleep.

Wen Man dared not look any further and quickly went upstairs.

Ho Shaoting watched as the lights on the top floor flickered to life before driving away. He was unaware that a black sports car had been parked in the shadows, its owner having waited downstairs for over two hours.

How long did Huo Shaoting and Wen Man hug in the car, how long did Gu Changqing wait downstairs!

Gu Changqing stepped out of the black car in a dark suit. The black car and black clothes made his face appear even fairer and more handsome. He leaned lightly against the car and lit a cigarette, lowering his head.

A wisp of smoke gently drifted out and was quickly torn apart by the darkness.

He saw everything that just happened.

Gu Changqing let out a sneer.

Wow! In such a short time, Wen Man has fallen for Huo Shaoqing Wasn't she head over heels for Gu Changqing

Gu Changqing stared at the lights upstairs and made a phone call.

"Let's get to work!"

After giving the order, he hung up the phone and sneered coldly: "Wen Man, this is what you asked for!"

……

Wen Man only turned on the lights when she got home, and Aunt Ruan came out of the bedroom in her pajamas.

"Why so late" Aunt Ruan's voice held a hint of reproach.

Wen Man poured herself a glass of cold water and bit her lip, still deciding not to say, "I missed the last bus and was late."

Auntie Ruan looked at her for a while: "I'll make you some hot noodles for supper."

Wen Man always felt that Auntie Ruan knew something, but she couldn't explain it. After all, she and Huo Shaoting were nothing to each other, and there wouldn't be a future.

About five minutes later, Auntie Ruan brought out a bowl of noodles and placed it on the small dining table, calling Wen Man over to eat.

Wen Man was indeed hungry, and whispered, "Thank you, Aunt Ruan."

Aunt Ruan sat opposite her, chin resting on her hand, staring at her. Wen Man felt uncomfortable under her gaze: "What's wrong, Aunt Ruan"

She asked, Aunt Ruan seeming like she'd been holding it in for a long time, "Was it that lawyer surnamed Huo who sent you back You... and him... are still in touch"

Wen Man hummed in response, "Just ordinary interactions, we probably won't see each other again in the future."

Aunt Ruan was a little disappointed.

On one hand, it's for Wen Boyan. On the other hand, it's also for Wen Man.

After four years of nurturing their relationship, Wen Man fed the feelings she had for Gu Changqing into oblivion. That's because in her heart, she desperately hopes that Wen Man finds a man who is more excellent than Gu Changqing, completely surpassing him.

It's a shame...

Wen Man knew what Aunt Ruan was thinking. She gently held her hand and said, "You forgot, Lawyer Huo and Gu Changqing are relatives sooner or later. I didn't even dare to think about it."

Aunt Ruan let out a soft sigh and continued, “But I can’t take you with me either. I wouldn't even give you a bite to eat! You still smell of smoke...”

Wen Man was drinking water and choked!

She was extremely embarrassed.

Back in her room, Wen Man took a bath and lay in bed, but she couldn't sleep. Her mind was racing with thoughts. She thought about Aunt Ruan's attitude; it seemed like she had accepted the fact that her father would be spending two years in prison.

Wen Man was a little sad.

She wasn't without thoughts of revenge against Gu Changqing, but she knew clearly that she couldn't shake him in the slightest. Besides, she had to take care of Aunt Ruan, who had never suffered a hardship in her life...

Wen Man tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

At four in the morning, my phone suddenly rang.

She thought it was a harassing message and reached for it to delete, but when she looked, she froze.

It turned out to be a WeChat message sent by Huo Shaoting.

< Are you asleep >

He also attached a photo, which was probably taken on the terrace of his high-end apartment. The angle showed the city's busiest streets at night from above. There was a highball glass on the railing, its transparent body reflecting the lights of the night, glittering and colorful.inking those things, Huo Yunsi's gaze deepened a bit.He hugged her gently and then let go, rubbing Lin Xi's head affectionately: "Listen to Daddy."Lin Xi nodded vigorously and said obediently, "Mommy...
