e.Late night.Gu Changqing sat on the long chair in the office, where everyone knew him.Hi!Isn't this the brother-in-law of the King of LawyersLast time it was also about jealousy and fighting, this ti...At nine o'clock in the evening, Wen Man only returned to the villa.

A hazy yellow light spilled from the hall, casting a dim glow in the entranceway. Just looking at it felt warm and inviting.

Little Huo Xi was sitting at the piano playing, while Huo Shaoting accompanied him.

He was wearing a classic three-piece suit, his jacket removed, the waistcoat highlighting his slender physique. Seeing Wen Man, he gently swirled his red wine glass: "How's the shopping going"

Wen Man put the bag down and sat on the sofa, gently rubbing her aching legs.

Little Ho Xi wanted to run over...

At first, she learned the piano to find her mother, but now…she couldn't give it up!

Ho Shao-ting gently pressed the small, auburn curly hair and said seriously: "Play this piece five more times!"

Dad is such a jerk! When you asked me to help you find a wife, this wasn't how you acted!

Little Huo Xi continued playing the piano, playing beautifully!

Wen Man was both amused and exasperated. She said to Huo Shaoting, "She's only four or five years old, why are you pushing her so hard!"

Ho Shao-ting knelt before her, giving her a foot massage. His voice was low and gentle: "She has talent! Wen Man... I've always wanted to apologize to you, but no matter how much I say sorry, your feet won't be able to return to what they were before. So I want to give Ho Xi an option!"

Wen Man remained silent, just gazing at him quietly.

She rarely looked at him like that, because in the past, she had always avoided developing those kinds of feelings for him again.

After a long pause, she whispered, "Although it might be like this, don't pressure her too much! I want Xiao Hoxi to live a carefree life, and besides... with you around, she won't lack for anything."

Ho Shaoting smiled faintly: "It's rare that I still have some merits in Teacher Wen's eyes."

They changed the subject and talked about Huo Mingzhu for a while.

Ho Shao-ting must have thought a lot during the day. He held her snowy foot, murmuring softly, "I won't force you or make you do anything because of Mingzhu's affairs! They are them, and we are us!"

Wen Man looked at him under the lamplight.

Her gaze was a little gentler than usual, very natural, not done deliberately to appease him.

Ho Shao-ting was moved.

His voice was husky: "Wen Man, do you have a little bit of a liking for me"

Wen Man reached out and gently touched his handsome face: "It seems like there is a little bit!"

Ho Shaoting smiled gently.

Just when both of them were feeling a bit tender, Little Huo played five songs on his instrument. She also came over and demanded that her father give her a foot rub.

Ho Shao-ting loved her the most.

He held the little guy in his arms, not only rubbing his feet but also his hands.

Xiao Huo finally stopped being jealous, lying in his arms, also feeling a little embarrassed.

Wen Man patted her little head and said to Huo Shaoting, "She likes you very much."

Ho Shaoting rubbed her nose and said, “You’re so big, you’re still jealous of the children.”

That night, Wen Man still slept with Xiao Huo Xi.

He didn't bring up the idea of her sleeping in the master bedroom again, nor did he ask for anything from her. The way he treated her in the dressing room during the day, she hadn't pushed him away... proving that she wasn't so averse to him anymore.

He is not in a hurry.

This time, he wanted to take things slow with her.

Seriously, let's have a real and meaningful relationship.

……

At night, Huo Mingzhu stood on the balcony.

Shuo Shuo was brought by Madam Huo, which was probably the most relaxed evening she had in the past few years. Although she should have been happy, after going through so much, she could no longer return to her carefree self of before.

Suddenly, the sound of a cell phone ringing filled the room.

She used to answer it, it was a stranger's number.

Ho Mingzhu didn't think too much, and immediately picked up: "Hello!"

That person over there didn't speak at first, only after a long silence did they hoarsely say: "It's me!"

Ho Mingzhu's blood turned to ice.

...Luke Qian.

She had never imagined she would receive a call from him again, especially since their breakup was so unpleasant. At least, that's how she remembered it – filled with despair and resentment.

Her lips moved, but she said nothing in the end.

In contrast, Lu Qian appeared much calmer. He asked in a low voice, "Your brother said you haven't been home for two years, right"

Huo Mingzhu's throat felt as if it were blocked.

She suppressed her emotions for a long time before managing to speak: "Mr. Lu, what's the purpose of your call We made it clear back then, we agreed never to contact each other again."

Lu Qian's tone was gentle, just like how he used to coax her: "Your brother said you haven't been doing well."

Ho Mingzhu closed her eyes slightly: "I'm fine now!"

A heavy silence fell between them.

After a long time, Lu Qian whispered, “I'm in city B! Can we meet Still at that apartment.”

Ho Mingzhu finally exploded.

"A meeting Mr. Lu, what do you take me for"

"Is it the deliciousness you're tired of and craving again, or are you one of many admirers"

"Am I such a disgrace"

……

Lu Qian's breath hitched.

His voice was still gentle: “Mingzhu, it’s just a meeting, have a meal together.”

Huomingzhu restrained herself, softly saying, "Mr. Lu, I won't go again!"

She suddenly hung up the phone.

Late at night, she cried alone on the balcony for a long time...

She didn't know when she had fallen for Lu Qian. Perhaps it was watching him work in the hospital, seeing him smoke alone late at night, or maybe it was the glimpse of loneliness she saw in a man...

She called him Uncle Lu.

She was afraid he would blame her brother, so she always followed him cautiously, trying to cheer him up.

Over time, he allowed her to stay by his side.

He always stayed up late. She would sometimes fall asleep on the sofa in his small office when she was tired. One night, she woke up and he was covering her with a blanket. Under the incandescent light, his face was particularly attractive. She couldn't help but call out, "Uncle Lu..."

Later, they kissed.

Lu Qian was much older than her, a very mature man. He could easily handle women.

That night, he toyed with her playfully.

But... he did not possess her.

It was the first time she realized that a man's skills could be so good... For the following days, she avoided him, afraid to see him.

He didn't look for her again.

Until the night Lu Qian was about to send off Huo Xi, he got drunk. She didn't feel at ease and went to check on him.

Drunken Uncle Lu is very handsome.

She couldn't help but kiss him...and later, they made love.

On that cramped sofa, she kept calling him Uncle Lu, sinking into his body again and again… At that time, she didn't even know how much she liked him, she only knew everything about this person was attractive to her.

I thought they only had one night.

Later, he frequently traveled to city B for business.

He bought a very nice apartment, which was decorated especially well, and he would always visit her whenever he came over.

They were sweet and loving in that apartment.

He came over to cook for her, and after she finished eating, he ate her…

During that time, she was obsessed, knowing it was wrong yet still sinking into his charm. He never said anything about marriage or the future, but she couldn't help herself and went to find him in City C...at, Lu Shu's own heart ached.He gently covered his eyes, not understanding what had happened.Lu Xun gazed up at him.But he did not soften at all, he just stared at her coldly.I don't know how long it...
