led a smoke ring, as if casually asking: "How long have you been following Gu Changqing"Wen Man was taken aback.But she still told the truth: "Four years."Huo Shaoting was a little surprised, his gaze...Hoxi opened her eyes, sadness still lingering in them. She had the same dream again.

In her dream, she brought Bai Qi's ashes back from abroad.

That dream of a plane, never landing.

Startled, she felt the warmth of skin beside her. Instinctively, she gripped it tightly and pressed her face against it… Zhang Chongguang felt a dampness on his arm.

Hawsi had cried...

Even though it was early summer, the large bedroom felt frigid.

Zhang Chongguang patiently waited for her to recover, about two minutes, Huo Xi completely woke up.

Then he felt a separation, Hosi slowly drew his face away from him, avoiding contact, a seemingly natural gesture that tightened his heart... His wife didn't want him to touch her.

Then, was her dependence based on the belief that he was Bai Qi

The living cannot compete with the dead, especially since he was the one who sent Bai Qi off in the first place, and then during Huo Xi's late pregnancy... Bai Qi died from illness.

She never knew, until after she recovered from childbirth, that she wanted to see Bai Qi.

Zhang Chongguang suppressed the feeling of unease in his heart.

Now Bai Qi had become a taboo between them; he didn't bring it up, and Huo Xi wouldn't mention it either... They just lived their lives in a lukewarm way, and after a long time, he wasn't even sure how much longer he could keep it up.

He thought, if Huo Xi was willing to live like this for the rest of his life.

He is also willing.

Zhang Chongguang's voice was soft: "Mianmian and Ruirui haven't gone to sleep yet. Let's go back early."

After he finished speaking, he felt a pang of sadness.

If it weren't for the two children, he would have left long ago. Even without a divorce, she would fly abroad and never come back... She endures every night lying beside him.

Huo Xi stood up, and even in the dim light, one could still see her graceful curves.

She got up and brushed her long hair to one side, smoothing down her dress lightly. It was a little wrinkled in the back, and Zhang Chongguang said, “Let me help you with that.”

But the moment his hand touched her, she instinctively moved away.

A deathly silence hung in the air.

As a husband, Zhang Chongguang felt a little embarrassed, but he still said gently: “I didn’t mean anything by it, I was just helping you tidy your clothes.”

Privately, Huo Xi treated him coldly: "I can manage myself."

"Done. She lifted her eyes, still with a cold and indifferent expression: "Let's go!"

"He hadn't taken two steps before Zhang Chongguang grabbed his wrist. The moment their bodies touched, he could feel her disgust. But this time, Zhang Chongguang didn't let go. He dragged her closer step by step and asked softly, " Huo Xi, are you still hating me Are you going to spend your life with Bai Qi and never be truly married to me How long has it been since we last had a marital relationship Do you remember"

Huo Xi doesn't remember.

After she found out what he had done, she couldn't bring herself to think of him anymore.

Once Bai Qi had spent her darkest days with her. She was carrying their child for seven months in England when she started to bleed heavily, and then it snowed. Bai Qi dragged himself to the hospital with his failing body, just as she had pulled him out of the darkness years ago. They were already family.

Ke Zhang Chongguang, preventing her from seeing Bai Qi for one last time.

How did Baiqi leave

Does he know… she doesn’t know… Will he think she doesn't care about him, that she left him behind to find happiness!

Bai Qi was like a younger brother to her in her heart, Zhang Chongguang knew that.

But he still did it!

Ho-xi didn't argue with him. She simply couldn't be his loving wife anymore. She had been with Zhang Chongguang for so many years, she knew him better than anyone. If she left him, who knew what crazy things he might do So she gave up on herself, throwing in the towel. If he wanted her, then she would give him... but it wasn't the same Ho-xi from before.

Zhang Chongguang looked at her pale face.

He said slowly, "Almost two years now! Huo Xi, I'm a normal man, aren't you afraid of me..."

"Huo Xi smiled calmly: 'Zhang Zong doesn't need to feel wronged!'"

She pushed him away and walked out.

Zhang Chongguang stood alone in the dim bedroom for a while, his face so grim that it was frightening. Perhaps this was his suppressed self... After a long while, he composed himself and went out.

Walking out of the bedroom, the lights outside made everything bright.

He saw Huo Xi stroll downstairs, making witty remarks to Huo Shao-ting below, looking languid and relaxed.

Such a hunk, full of charisma.

Zhang Chongguang quickly took a few steps to catch up with Huo Xi, then naturally wrapped his arms around his wife's waist in front of Huo Shaoting and greeted him: "Dad, Huo Xi and I are going back first!"

He was so obvious, nowhere could he hide it from Huo Shaoting's eyes.

But they both pretended to be affectionate, and the elders couldn't say anything, so they just hummed softly in response.

Zhang Chongguang hugged Huo Xi and walked through the entrance hall to the parking lot in the courtyard.

"Let go!"

Huoxi wanted to pull away his hand, but Zhang Chongguang murmured in her ear, "Dad's out here watching! Are you sure you want to push away your husband"

Huo Xi didn't push him away anymore, instead she was gently pushed against the car. Then, a refreshing minty smell entered her mouth, gradually eroding her taste buds.

With that kiss, Zhang Chongguang's body temperature rose. His hand cupping her face was even scalding hot.

Huo Xi let him kiss, unusually yielding.

After a long pause, Zhang Chongguang gently released her, his proud nose pressed against the side of her neck as he panted, "If I said that Dad didn't come out, would you regret letting me touch you"

Sure enough, her body stiffened instantly.

Zhang Chongguang gave a cold smile.

On the way back, no one spoke.... The car stopped in the courtyard and the spotted dog, Xiaoguang, jumped up and down happily, wagging its thin tail.

"Dad!"

Huo Mianmian ran out like a whirlwind, hugging Zhang Chongguang's legs. The father instantly picked up his little daughter. At 10 years old and well-raised, she was quite heavy to hold.

Huomianmian quickly agreed.

She had grown up and no longer wanted to be held by her father. She held little Guang's hand with pride and said, "Zhang Rui's chemistry experiment came first in the city primary school group."

Zhang Chongguang looked at Huo Xi and said gently, "This kid is really good!"

Huo Xi also touched Mian Mian's little head.

Their little disagreements, known only to them privately, were not shown in front of their children. They remained a loving couple for all to see. Zhang Chongguang lightly rested his hand on her shoulder and then they walked together into the hall.

When praising Zhang Rui, the first-grader remained composed: "This experiment wasn't that difficult!"

Ho Mianmian propped her fair little face up, looking distressed: "Zhang Rui, how come you're so smart"

Zhang Rui, with a serious expression: "I'm smart, so my sister doesn't need to be!"

He said, "I'll take care of you from now on!"

Huo Mianmian held his little face and kissed him. Xiao Zhang Rui was a bit shy, he tried his best to lift his face but his cheeks were burning red. Huo Mianmian laughed, holding her stomach...

Because Zhang Rui performed exceptionally well, Zhang Chongguang specially rewarded him.

He found a platinum airplane model in the study and gave it to him. Boys all like this, Zhang Rui was overjoyed and immediately took it back to his room to admire it carefully.hop.The Jing family were still arguing when, suddenly, Mrs. Jing saw Huo Shaoting walk in with Wen Man.She was furious, pointing at them and saying to Jing Ci: "See!
