Huo Xi drove to Zhang Chongguang's villa.
It was already evening.
On a cloudy and rainy day, a layer of twilight dust and smoke enveloped the sky and the earth, making it look a bit ethereal.
The villa was very big, and the doorman actually knew her. He opened the door for her without saying a word, and quietly made a cheering gesture. Hoxi guessed that he must be an old man who had served her in the past.
She smiled, drove the car into the villa, walked around a fountain and parked on the parking lot.
The rain continued.
It was really not suitable to go out or to please others, but Huo Xi still chose to pick up Zhang Chongguang in such weather. Of course, she also knew that he would not leave with her.
It doesn't matter, her purpose is just to let him know.
Huo Xi didn't hold an umbrella when she got out of the car, and her clothes quickly got wet. A familiar servant came up to her and held an umbrella for her. She said with some embarrassment: "Madam, you'd better go back!"
She looked in the direction of the villa and whispered, "Miss He is here!"
Miss He...
Remember URL
Huo Xi guessed that he was talking about He Lu. She was not surprised, but she was more or less concerned. If it were the former Huo Xi, she would probably turn around and leave, but if she really wanted to get something, let alone one He Lu, there would be ten He Lus. He couldn't stop her either.
Hosi smiled lightly: "Where is he?"
Seeing her insistence, the servant had no choice but to take her into the villa. As he walked, he said, "Sir, he is reading upstairs! It's raining right now and his legs hurt a little."
Huo Xicai smiled slightly and saw He Lu standing in the hall of the villa.
He Lu stood like a hostess, looking at Huo Xi.
The servant didn't understand why and said awkwardly: "Ms. He, madam, come here to see sir."
He Lu didn't say anything at first. She stared at Huo Xi for a while and then said to the servant: "You go down first! I'll greet Lawyer Huo... Also, she and Mr. Zhang have divorced, and she is not your wife."
Although the servant was afraid of her, she didn't like what she said.
She retorted: "They say that a couple's love lasts for a night, and besides, the husband and wife have raised three children. This breaks the relationship between bones and tendons. Besides, Miss He has never had a relationship, right?"
He Lu felt unhappy.
Huo Xi was quite generous and said to the servant: "Go down and make me a cup of scented tea."
The servant responded naturally: "Okay, then I'll brew your favorite needles."
Their familiar attitude made He Lu quite unhappy.
This time, although Zhang Chongguang paid her to hire her to act and did not have true feelings for her, she thought that as long as she could get close to Zhang Chongguang, she would still have a chance to marry into a wealthy family.
He Lu didn't want to miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
When the servant left, she looked at Huo Xi and sneered: "Zhang Chongguang doesn't want to see you! Why are you asking for trouble! Lawyer Huo is also a well-known celebrity. As a woman, she always chases after men. I don't think I can spread the word. Sounds good!"
Huo Xi sat on the sofa and brushed his half-wet hair.
He raised his eyes after a while: "I'm happy! Do you have any questions, Miss He?"
She is a lawyer, and He Lu naturally cannot get any advantage from her, so she sneered again: "If he wants to see you, he has already gone downstairs to see you. If he doesn't want to see you, he just doesn't want to be with you." Sorry, don't you understand this? Lawyer Huo, actually, you really shouldn't be too confident. People's feelings will fade away over time, and no one will love someone forever. "
At this time, the servant brought scented tea.
Huo Xi did not drink. She smiled slightly and said, "You are right, no one loves anyone forever! But Miss He, I think if Zhang Chongguang loved you, he would have been willing to give you a title, right?" No? I don’t need you to...exercise the rights of a mother-in-law here under the guise of being unmarried, making me look like a mistress."
He Lu's face turned red. She wanted to refute but couldn't say a word.
The servant almost laughed out loud.
That's it, beat her to death!
Huo Xi didn't want to stay long. She took the towel handed by the servant, wiped her face, and said softly: "Tell Mr. I've been here. He won't let me come back next time."
The servant was so moved that she didn't know what to do.
Huo Xi had already stood up and walked towards the door without fighting.
He Lu's furious voice came from behind: "He won't change his mind, he doesn't love you anymore."
Huo Xi paused slightly.
After a moment, her voice came faintly: "How much did it cost Zhang Chongguang to hire you?"
He Lu looked pale.
She moved her lips, wanting to say something, but Hosi had already left the villa. After a while, the sound of a car starting came from the yard, getting closer and farther away.
…
Horsey is gone.
Zhang Chongguang stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and quietly watched the car disappear from sight.
He Lu came over and returned to life.
Pushing the door open and walking into the study room, I saw a book "Self-Control" lying messily on the sofa, while the owner of the book was standing by the window, standing silently not knowing what he was thinking.
In fact, she knew that he was thinking about Hosie.
This made He Lu very uncomfortable. She walked over lightly and called softly behind him: "Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Chongguang said nothing.
He Lu couldn't help but speak: "Since you don't love her anymore, you shouldn't let her appear in your world again. For example, if the doorman is replaced by the servant, she will naturally not be able to get close to her."
After saying that, her heart heaved.
She had some regrets, but more of it was impulsive. She almost blurted out: "Compared to her, I, who am single and have no children, are actually more suitable to take care of you."
This time, Zhang Chongguang spoke.
He was full of sarcasm when he opened his mouth: "You mean you are more suitable to take care of the disabled?"
He Lu had tears in her eyes: "I like you."
"like me?……"
Zhang Chongguang repeated these three words one by one, with a mocking tone, and he asked: "Do you like my people or my money? He Lu... I paid you to help me block Huo Xi, I didn’t mean for you to think of me as a fool.”
There are thousands or even tens of thousands of women like her in City B.
Maybe he would have taken a look once upon a time.
But since Song Yun, he couldn't look at these women, and even if he was single again, he wouldn't even be interested in having fun with them.
He sneered: "You must have paid a lot to get to where you are today! You don't want to be unable to survive in the industry overnight because you offend someone, or even be unable to survive in City B!"
These words hurt He Lu's self-esteem.
She is a beautiful woman. Even if she has not reached a high level, every man who comes into contact with her is willing to talk sweetly. No one has ever treated her like this.
Zhang Chongguang hit the nail on the head: "That's because you can sleep with them."
He Lu was so embarrassed that she didn't think that Zhang Chongguang knew everything about her past.
"Zhang Chongguang, why do you still keep me?"
Zhang Chongguang flicked the curtains with his slender fingers. The dark curtains were like Huo Xi's black hair that was half wet from the rain. They were dense and beautiful...
After a long while, he said softly: "No reason, just because you are no different from other people."
It's just random.
…
After saying this, he asked He Lu to go out. He hired her to do work but she did not live in the same building.
He Lu's dormitory is in a row of houses at the back.
Stay with the servants.
When it got quiet, Zhang Chongguang looked out the window again... A drop of water fell from the eaves of the window, crystal clear.
He made up his mind to make a clean break with Hosie.
He didn't want to see her, didn't want her to come into his world, and Huo Xi didn't insist on seeing him. She just came often. Sometimes she would bring him a book she had read, and sometimes she would bring two copies of Huo Shaoting. The beef dumplings made by hand, one is boiled and the other is fried, which Zhang Chongguang has loved to eat since he was a child. The beef dumplings are full of filling and are very satisfying.
When early autumn came quietly, Huo Xi brought Zhang Chongguang a sweater.
It is handwoven by Wenman.
The dark brown turtleneck sweater is nice and warm, suitable for home wear.
Huo Xi chased the man leisurely like this, and sometimes she met He Lu. He Lu laughed at her, but in her heart she envied Huo Xi.
Because Huo Xi was sure that Zhang Chongguang loved her, that's why she dared to pester him like this!
Zhang Chongguang rejected Huo Xi, but he did not refuse those things. He would secretly eat all the beef dumplings, and he would also secretly put on that sweater and read the books Huo Xi sent him late at night.
She marked some places, which turned out to be love words.
At Zhang Chongguang's age, he would suddenly blush sometimes.
He suddenly closed the book, feeling that he could not go on like this. If he continued like this, sooner or later he would be manipulated by Huo Xi and return home.
Late at night, he took his mobile phone and wanted to dial Huo Xi's number. He wanted to make it clear to her.
Surprisingly, the phone rang a few times before being picked up.
Horsey's voice was slightly hoarse. She said softly: "What's wrong so late? If anything happens, we'll talk about it tomorrow. I'm now..."
Zhang Chongguang's Adam's apple rolled slightly.
He hadn't heard Hosi's voice for a long time. Even though she came to the villa every two or three days, he never saw her once and didn't usually call her.
Suddenly, he felt a little nostalgic.
After a moment of recovery, he said calmly with a good mood: "I just want to tell you, don't send things to me anymore, and don't visit me anymore. I said it's over between us, and you don't owe me anything." I don’t owe you anymore...Huo Xi, we are settled."
…
Huo Xi didn't reply for a long time, and Zhang Chongguang couldn't help but whisper: "Huo Xi?"
Horsey hummed.
She seemed to think about it for a moment before saying, "Xingxing is hospitalized and still has a low fever. Can we talk about things later?"
ah……
Zhang Chongguang's hand holding the phone trembled, and his ears felt hot. His little daughter was ill and hospitalized, but he was thinking about these men and women. He really shouldn't.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, Hosi hasn't been here for several days.
Zhang Chongguang felt a little guilty, even more worried, and couldn't care about anything else: "Which hospital is it? I'll come right away."
On the other side, there was another long silence.
For a long time, Huo Xi asked quietly: "Aren't you going to disturb your sleep with Miss He? Last time I came here, she said she had an anxiety disorder. If I always come over, it will affect her sleep. Zhang Chongguang, I think it's better not to let Xingxing's body affect her sleep." Your feelings.”
There was something in her words, she retreated and advanced covertly, how could Zhang Chongguang not know?
He didn't explain, just said: "Send me the address and I'll come right away."
