Horsey didn't know how long he stood there, or when the banquet ended.
when she left,
I met Zhang Chongguang at the entrance of the hotel. Secretary Qin was talking beside him, but his voice was a little low and hard to hear.
Seeing him again, Hosi's mood was extremely complicated.
She looked straight at Zhang Chongguang, looking at this man who she once deeply loved and once hated to the extreme. When she knew the truth...she suddenly felt that those loves and hates were no longer important, just like when she committed suicide in Melbourne | Kill, Zhang Chongguang compromised with her, and now her mood is not one of compromise.
No matter how much love and hate are intertwined, she still hopes that he will be well every year.
Zhang Chongguang turned his head and saw her.
The crystal lamp in the hotel entrance illuminated Hosi's face as white as snow, without a trace of blood. And her palms were bleeding drop by drop, and the bright red blood dripped on the dark red carpet, soaking a small area.
But Horsey was completely unaware.
Zhang Chongguang quickly stepped forward and grabbed her wrist. Seeing the injury on her palm, his tone was a little harsh: "How did it happen like this? Where are you...man?"
Before Huo Xi could say anything, he already wanted to hug her.
Remember https://m in one second.
But it was only when his hands reached her waist that he remembered his legs. He couldn't hold Hosi even if he was a one-year-old baby, let alone a one-year-old baby. He lowered his arms and said in a very soft voice: "Get in the car! I'll take you to the doctor. "
Horsey still looked straight at him.
There was moisture in her eyes.
Zhang Chongguang didn't know what she had gone through. In desperation, he held her thin wrist and led her to the car. At this time, even if the walking was difficult and unnatural, he couldn't care less.
Hosie was gently pushed into the back seat by him, and then he got in after him.
Secretary Qin was smart. She immediately sat in the front passenger seat and said to the driver, "Go to the nearest hospital."
The driver didn't dare to delay and stepped on the accelerator.
In the darkness of the car, Huo Xi and Zhang Chongguang were sitting side by side. They hadn't been this close for a long time. Zhang Chongguang asked her in a low voice: "There is no hemostatic enzyme in the bag?"
Huo Xi answered the question inappropriately: "Where is your girlfriend? Are you not together?"
Zhang Chongguang looked deeply: "Are you still asking this at this time?"
As he spoke, he skillfully found the hemostatic enzyme from her bag. Secretary Qin in front immediately brought the mineral water and unscrewed it. Zhang Chongguang took it and looked at Huo Xi: "Eat quickly."
Horsey didn't move.
Zhang Chongguang didn't know what kind of stimulation she had received, so he fed her food directly. When the warm and generous palm of his hand touched her lips, both of them were shocked at the same time...
The light was dim, and their eyes were complicated.
Zhang Chongguang's Adam's apple rolled down, and his voice was hoarse. His low voice was almost coaxing: "How old are you, and you are still so disobedient! From now on..."
He couldn't speak any more.
He didn't forget that they were divorced, he didn't forget that he couldn't give her a normal life, and he didn't forget that she might belong to someone else now.
Horsey's eyes were filled with water.
She leaned forward gently, pressing her lips against his palm. The small pill was licked away by the tip of her tongue, but it left a wet patch on Zhang Chongguang's palm.
Zhang Chongguang curled his fingers slightly and handed her some water: "Drink some water."
After she drank the water, he took out the medical kit and bandaged her.
During the bandaging process, skin contact was unavoidable. He held her slender wrist and it felt slender than before. Zhang Chongguang murmured: "How did he take care of you?"
"Which one?" Horsey asked him.
Zhang Chongguang suddenly raised his eyes, looked at each other, and after a while he said: "Don't you have a boyfriend? I think you two get along well."
Hosi did not deny it, but only took out his hand after bandaging the wound.
She leaned back in her chair and remained silent.
The same goes for Zhang Chongguang.
It was dark inside the car, and from time to time the lights from the opposite car came in, illuminating their faces... flickering on and off.
No one can see the other person's expression clearly.
The car stopped at the hospital, and Zhang Chongguang turned sideways: "Get out of the car! Let the doctor bandage you."
The driver and Secretary Qin both got off the car.
There were only two people in the car, Huo Xi and Zhang Chongguang. Huo Xi sat motionless. Just when Zhang Chongguang wanted to call her again, she suddenly spoke. She said, "Zhang Chongguang, does it hurt?"
Does it hurt when you are lying alone in the hospital undergoing surgery?
When I left, forced to stay in the ward because I couldn't move, did it hurt?
Does it hurt when you see me in a wheelchair?
When Hosie asked this question, her voice was trembling. She even...wanted to touch his injured leg. She wanted to look there and see how serious his injury was.
Zhang Chongguang's body tensed up.
He seemed to feel something, and turned his head to stare at her, his eyes slightly cold.
After a moment, he raised his voice: "Secretary Qin, accompany her in!"
Secretary Qin was blowing the cold wind outside. Hearing this, he was stunned. Before he could react, Huo Xi had been invited out of the RV by Zhang Chongguang. His attitude became much colder and he tilted his head slightly to signal the driver to get in.
Hosie stood outside the car in the night wind.
Look at him.
The car door was closed, and the black RV slowly drove away in front of her.
Secretary Qin felt very sorry and took a step forward, "Lawyer Huo, I'm so sorry. Mr. Zhang has... a weird personality recently. I suspect he has advanced menopause."
Hosie looked down at the gauze on his palm.
The bleeding has stopped.
She quietly looked at her eyes filled with warmth, and said softly: "No need to bandage anymore, it's just fine now!"
She reached out to hail a taxi, opened the door and got in.
Secretary Qin stood messy in the wind, she thought, if one is crazy, the other two are also crazy.
When she told Zhang Chongguang, she thought he would blame her, but she didn't expect that Mr. Zhang just said quietly that he understood.
Secretary Qin was even more confused.
…
Huo Xi did not return to Huo's house. She came to an apartment under her name.
It's quiet at night.
She stood in the dark without turning on the light, she didn't even change out of her dress... she lit a long, slender women's cigarette with her fingertips, and didn't smoke it, just letting it burn slowly.
Discovering the truth had a great impact on her.
But she is still just an ordinary person. She has experienced too much and she cannot look back as she did when she was young.
She had so much to think about.
Family, marriage, children... these are all she has to face when making choices.
The night becomes darker and darker.
When the sky turned white, Huo Xi put out the last cigarette... She took her mobile phone and dialed her assistant's number. When the call was connected, she asked quietly: "Last year, was Zhang Chongguang injured in the car accident?" Very heavy?"
The assistant was in a daze at first, but immediately woke up after hearing these words.
Of course she didn't dare to say it.
Horsey knew the truth from her attitude. She paused for a long time before speaking again: "I want to see that car."
The assistant persuaded: "I heard that it was sent to the scrapyard! You may not be able to find it."
"Help me find it! No matter the cost."
The assistant heard the determination in her tone and immediately said: "Okay Lawyer Huo."
Four hours later.
Horsey drove to a scrapyard, where there were many scrapped cars piled up. The person in charge here accompanied him to look at them, and said with a smile: "Don't look at the shabby places here, these cars are not cheap when they are good. Most of them are It was smashed to pieces in a car accident, for example, this car was smashed by a second-generation car while playing with it. Not to mention cars, people were also smashed."
He said it in a normal way, he must be used to it.
Huo Xi gathered up his windbreaker and said in a hoarse voice, "Where's the car I want to see?"
The manager pointed to the distance: "Isn't it right there? Hey, what do you want to see this old car doing? It was indeed a good car in the past, but it was unlucky. It was involved in a big accident. I heard that the owner's leg was smashed to pieces... ...Tsk, tsk, tsk, I think that leg is also mutilated now, it’s a pity.”
Horsey didn't want to hear what he said.
She walked over quickly and saw the rusty Lincoln parked among the weeds.
The original color has long been invisible.
The front of the car was completely smashed, leaving only a small space in the cab, and even though the seat had been exposed to wind and sun for more than half a year, the deep red blood stains could still be seen vaguely.
Hosi's fingertips trembled and touched lightly...
Those, those are Zhang Chongguang's blood, and maybe his skin and flesh.
When her assistant rushed over, Hosi's eyes were moist... After standing for a long time, Hosi said softly: "Let's go!"
The assistant didn't dare ask where to go.
The car driven by Huo Xi dropped off the assistant in the city. The assistant stood outside the car and said worriedly: "Lawyer Huo..."
Horsey lowered the window.
She said calmly: "I'm going to find Zhang Chongguang."
The car window was raised, and the white Bentley drove away slowly. Horsey drove slowly along the way because her eyes were always covered with a layer of moisture.
More than half an hour later, she arrived at the villa where they used to live. The servant was surprised to see her coming: "Madam, why are you here?"
Huo Xi closed the car door and looked up at the direction of the second floor.
"Is sir at home?"
The servant hesitated and said, "Yes, I am, but I haven't gone downstairs today. I seem to be in a bad mood."
Huo Xi lowered his eyes, his long eyelashes trembling slightly.
In a moment she passed through the entrance hall, walked through the hall, and walked along the handrail toward the second floor.
The servant hesitated to speak. He wanted to speak but didn't say anything.
Hosie came to the door of the master bedroom on the second floor. It was quiet inside... Her hand was flat against the door panel.
She also knew what it meant for her to come to Zhang Chongguang.
Finally, he pushed the door open gently.
Zhang Chongguang was in the bedroom. He sat quietly on the carpet beside the bed, with some photos scattered around him... and a box of painkillers.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, he said displeasedly: "Didn't you tell me not to come in without my permission?"
The person at the door came quietly without making a sound.
Suddenly, he raised his eyes and saw Hosie.
Horsey also looked at him.
She saw the photos scattered around his feet, all of which were secretly taken of her, including those from abroad and recent ones... Her throat seemed to be blocked, and her voice was hoarse: "Didn't you throw them away last time?"
Zhang Chongguang curled his fingers slightly.
He realized what she knew, and the man's self-esteem was full at this moment. He tried to say in a very calm tone: "This doesn't bother you, does it?"
Huo Xi didn't make a sound. She just squatted down slowly and sat side by side with him.
Zhang Chongguang's body stiffened.
He heard Huo Xi say: "Zhang Chongguang, let's try again!"
