The two were so close that their breaths were intertwined.

Her eyes met Huo Jingchen's deep eyes and she nodded obediently.

She couldn't resist Huo Jingchen's words, it was her body's instinct.

"I'm so sleepy." Yan Xu's voice was soft.

Huo Jingchen stretched out his hand to hold the back of her head and gently pulled her into his arms, "Go to sleep."

Drowsiness came over her, and Huo Jingchen's aura made her feel at ease, so Yan Xu fell asleep quickly.

But this night, Huo Jingchen couldn't sleep all night.

While Yan Xu was taking a shower, he received a call from Lin He, and the content made him upset.

Lin He told him that the mastermind who kidnapped Yan Xu two years ago was not dead.

This news is undoubtedly a bombshell.

The next morning, Huo Jingchen got up a little late because he had trouble sleeping last night.

After he washed up and came downstairs, Yan Xu had breakfast leisurely in the restaurant.

Today, she was wearing a light-colored casual suit, and her long black curly hair was casually rolled up and tied into a bun with a hair tie.

The morning light outside the window reflected in and enveloped her body, giving people a sense of tranquility over time.

Huo Jingchen strode over. Yan Xu, who heard the footsteps, didn't bother to raise his head and continued to drink porridge seriously.

Completely treat Huo Jingchen as air.

Huo Jingchen walked to the dining table and asked, "Is there anything else? I'm hungry too."

Recently, he has been socializing a lot and eating irregularly. He feels a little uncomfortable in his stomach. Looking at the porridge in Yan Xu's bowl, he can't help but feel a little greedy.

Yan Xu still didn't look up, her attitude was very cold, "I only made one serving."

The rejection was very obvious.

Huo Jingchen was not angry when he heard this, but the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

Before, Yan Xu would have dared to treat him like this.

Huo Jingchen felt that Yan Xu was completely different now from before.

He walked over directly, pulled out the chair next to him and sat down.

"I'm hungry."

Yan Xu rolled her eyes in her heart, it was none of her business.

But she didn't say what was in her heart, "You can ask Auntie to make one for you."

She really didn't expect Huo Jingchen to have breakfast at home, so she only made her own portion.

Huo Jingchen looked indifferent and said in a bad tone, "I want to eat what you cooked."

It seems like a long time since I last ate the food she cooked.

Because of what happened that day, Yan Xu was fuming in her heart and said with a gun and a stick, "I am not your nanny, and I have no obligation to serve you."

I remembered that day in the restaurant that he misunderstood me and didn't trust me. Yan Xu's anger couldn't be suppressed and kept rising.

Huo Jingchen still looked calm and spoke matter-of-factly, "But as a wife, you have the obligation to do your part for your husband."

He has been abroad for the past two years, so it has been a long time since he tasted her cooking.

Yan Xu's craftsmanship is good, and Huo Jingchen has the best say in this.

Her mother used to work as a nanny in the Huo family, and Yan Xu would occasionally go to the Huo family to help during her holidays.

Therefore, Huo Jingchen often asked Yan Xu to make food for him.

Yan Xu put down the spoon in her hand and turned to look at the man in front of her with a matter-of-fact expression. "As a man who doesn't trust his wife, I feel like I don't have to do it."

After a moment of silence, she continued, "Besides, we are still in a divorce relationship, so there is no need for it."

She opened her mouth to talk about divorce.

Huo Jingchen's face darkened because of Yan Xu's words, "You don't think that everything will be fine if you find a lawyer to take your case."

Hearing this, Yan Xu's expression changed, and she suddenly had a bad feeling.

She thought Huo Jingchen would know, but she didn't expect him to know so soon.

"As long as I think about it, it's easy to bring down a small office." Huo Jingchen said in a domineering tone.

This is a naked threat.

"Huo Jingchen, you..."

She knew clearly that Huo Jingchen was not joking, he had the strength.

It seems that Huo Jingchen has already investigated Lawyer Xu.

So, she changed her tone and said, "Why don't you want a divorce? Give me a reason."

Yan Xu thought that Huo Jingchen would eagerly agree to her request for divorce.

After all, this way he and Huang Zhirou could be together legitimately.

But his reaction and behavior made Yan Xu puzzled.

Huo Jingchen said calmly, "There is no reason."

Obviously this reason could not convince Yan Xu.

Yan Xu felt helpless, "If you divorce me, you can be with the person you like and get out of this marriage. Why don't you agree to the best of both worlds?"

She really couldn't understand Huo Jingchen, or she had never really understood him.

Huo Jingchen raised her eyebrows, "Divorce me and get a huge compensation. You are really planning on it."

Yan Xu didn't intend to explain that he misunderstood her. As long as he agreed to divorce, it didn't matter what he thought of her.

Yan Xu looked at him and said seriously, "I can cleanse myself and leave the house."

She must divorce this marriage.

Seeing Yan Xu's resolute attitude, Huo Jingchen's eyes froze.

Huo Jingchen reminded her coldly, "Don't forget, you owe me."

Yan Xu couldn't argue with this reason. She owed it to Huo Jingchen.

He owed Huo Jingchen a life, owed his brother a leg, and ruined his love and marriage.

But Yan Xu was unable to repay these.

Huo Jingchen stretched out his hand to lift her chin, and Yan Xu looked into his cold eyes, "You can't get away until you pay off what you owe me."

"How do you want me to repay you?" Yan Xu's throat was sore and she struggled to spit out a few words.

The only thing she can do now is to divorce and give him his freedom.

As for the rest, there was really nothing she could do.

Huo Jingchen stretched out his arms, picked up the sitting Yan Xu and sat on his lap.

"I'll tell you when I think about it."
