“I was visiting Xiaoxue and her baby.” Huo Mian looked at Ning Zhiyuan with an icy expression.
Before, she felt nothing towards Ning Zhiyuan. However, now that she saw how dejected Wu Xiaoxue and her baby were, she began hating this man in front of her. He was no longer the innocent young man she met in university, but a disgusting scumbag…
“You’re here to see Wu Xiaoxue? You guys sure are close.” Ning Zhiyuan didn’t seem to know that she and Wu Xiaoxue had made up.
“That’s between the two of us, I don’t need to explain anything to you.”
Then, Huo Mian turned around and walked towards her car…
“Mian…”
“Can I help you?” Huo Mian stopped walking but didn’t turn around. She was not at all interested in looking at him.
“How… are you doing?”
“Haha… don’t you watch television or the news?” Huo Mian chuckled.
“I don’t think that Qin Chu did the right thing. He announced your relationship just like that and pushed you to the brink of the crisis. I think he’s making you flaunt your love with him, so he could distance himself from the incident… Don’t you know that you’re being used?”
Upon hearing this, Huo Mian turned around to look at Ning Zhiyuan with a complicated expression on her face. “Oh yeah? I was used?”
“Yeah, you’re so smart, haven’t you noticed?” Ning Zhiyuan said earnestly.
“Thanks for reminding me of that, now I know that I’ve been used, but… so what? He’s my husband, I’m willing to be used…” Huo Mian said on purpose.
“So, you’re willing to do anything for money? Even if you’re bullied? Even if his awful mother-in-law treats you like that?”
“We’ve known each other for years, but you still know nothing about me… Let me tell you, I’ve tasted the strongest liquor and gave up on the man I love most in this world. I can be stubborn like a crazy person and work like a man. I can also be a good wife and a loving mother. I can take care of my husband and nurture my child. But it all depends on who you are. Don’t ever think that you can stand in my shoes because you’ll never see what I see.”
Then, Huo Mian left without hesitation…
She had nothing more to say to Ning Zhiyuan…
To her, he wasn’t even an acquaintance.
After what he did to Wu Xiaoxue and her daughter, he didn’t deserve to be forgiven…
It was good that Director Wu fired him and the Wu Family chased him out. He brought everything onto himself.
Dumbfounded, Ning Zhiyuan looked at Huo Mian’s disappearing shadow.
He suddenly realized that the best years of his life was all those years ago, back in university, when he courted Huo Mian.
However, those days were never coming back…
Sometimes he even thought, if he believed Huo Mian and stood by her side instead of doing all those hurtful things to her, would she still leave him for Qin Chu?
But there weren’t any ‘ifs’ in life…
There were only results and consequences…
Everything that had happened to him to this day was caused by him, and him alone. At one time, Huo Mian wanted to believe him and was willing to stand by his side.
But he took it for granted; he couldn’t blame anyone but himself.
When Huo Mian got home, Qin Chu had already prepared dinner…
In Huo Mian’s eyes, Mr. Qin never said much, but he treated her with such tenderness.
He was always so busy, but after he got home, he would immediately take off his boss exterior, and become a husband.
He always cooked Huo Mian delicious food…
“Woah… smells really good. Honey, did you make seafood?” As soon as Huo Mian went through the door, she smelled the fresh smell of seafood.
“Good nose.” Qin Chu smiled.
He placed dinner on the table – steamed crab, mantis shrimp, spicy stir-fry sea snail, and oven-roasted yellow clams.
These were all Huo Mian’s favorite dishes…
Ever since she found out that Qin Chu couldn’t eat seafood, she has been holding herself back, even forgetting that she hadn’t had it in a long time.
However, Mr. Qin still remembered what she liked…
“Huh, people are never nice for no reason… Honey, do you want something from me? Why else would you be so nice?”
“Of course I do,” Qin Chu said matter-of-factly.
“Then, Mr. Qin, what do you want from me?” Huo Mian walked over and coyishly hugged Qin Chu’s waist from behind.
“Can you be on top tonight? I’ve been really tired recently… You should take more initiative.”
Pfttt… Huo Mian almost spat out her food… Was Mr. Qin talking dirty again? Can someone keep him at bay?
