f course, the original locations where she used to teach piano couldn't be moved, so she used all of Zhou Chuan Ren's 20 million investment to rent storefronts and decorate them.All music centers are...Ho Shaoting gently embraced her shoulder.
Wen Man, contrary to her usual behavior, did not resist him.
She let him hold her for a long time.
"Ho Shaoting, when are we getting a divorce" she finally said as the sun reached its zenith.
Huo Shaoting's body stiffened slightly.
He had guessed she would bring it up today, but he didn't want to let go easily. He hoped to delay it a little longer, perhaps there was still time to salvage their fractured marriage.
He fell silent for a long time, then spoke in a hoarse whisper: “Let’s take it slow!”
Wen Man broke free from him.
She turned to look at him, in her heart he had been sentenced to death. She was sure she would divorce him.
"What's the point!"
She spoke in a hushed voice: "Let's end this marriage as soon as possible. We both need to start anew. This marriage was built because of Huo Xi, and now that she's gone..."
Ho Shaoting interrupted her.
He gazed at her with piercing eyes, asking in a voice so soft and submissive it was almost inaudible: "If Ho Xi were still here, wouldn't you come back to him"
He asked with skill.
He didn't ask if, if Hosei was still alive, you would divorce me.
He asked, "Will you come back to me..."
Wen Man didn't hear it.
She gazed at the pale horizon and murmured softly, "It's a pity that there are no more 'ifs' between us!"
Ho Shaoting stepped forward again, very slowly and gently hugging her. Before she could pull away, he whispered, "I'll sign! Wen Man... I'll just hold you for a while!"
He and she, embraced in silence.
At this moment, Huo Shaoting didn't know how long he would have to be separated from her. Maybe two years, maybe three years... or perhaps even a lifetime!
But no matter how long, he told himself.
He should, set her free!
He looked at her intently: "Let's have dinner together at our old apartment! I'll have Zhang's secretary bring over the divorce agreement in a while!"
Wen Man finally broke free from him.
She smiled faintly: "There's no need!"
Ho Shaoting grabbed her hand: "Eat a meal! I'll just sign!"
He gazed at her with fervent eyes, insistent.
In the end, Wen Man still agreed.
She got into his car, and he made a phone call to Zhang's secretary, giving her a few instructions. It was clear the other side was already aware of the situation, and they quickly carried out his requests!
Half an hour later, he drove his car to the apartment.
Everything is as before!
The Rococo style curtains, the piano, and the blue vase, they are all images from memory. Even the little white dog that got hurt, he was brought back from the vet clinic. He is now lying on the mat basking in the sun lazily.
Wen Man came in, and it immediately rushed over.
sobbed for a long time!
Wen Man reached out and gently touched its dog's head.
Ho Shaoting looked at the slender hand and whispered, "If you like it, you can take it!"
Wen Man nodded gently.
Since it was their farewell dinner, she didn't want to eat with him in her hospital gown. She went to the cloakroom and picked out a skirt to change into, and even put on some makeup!
There was silence between them at the dinner table.
Besides the exquisite food on the table, there were two divorce agreements, placed there squarely.
Ho Shao-ting took them aside and whispered, "Let's look after dinner."
He gently served her food, always encouraging her to eat more.
Wen Man ate a little, she gently put down her chopsticks and smiled faintly: " Huo Shaoting, let's sign the papers!"
His fingers holding the chopsticks twitched slightly.
A moment later, he said, “I’m not full yet!”
Wen Man patiently waited for him. There was almost no sign of frenzy in her, yes, no matter how sad one is, people still have to return to reality and bravely move on.
Now, Wen Man has found her bravery back.
She wanted to walk alone...
He Shao-ting offered her very generous terms, with real estate, stocks and funds, plus cash, adding up to over 2 billion yuan.
Wen Man hesitated to sign.
He said gently and calmly, "Take it! And please don't drink so much to cope with work anymore…"
Wen Man's eyes were a little moist.
She signed...
Huo Shaoting's vision was blurry. He paused for a moment before seemingly casually asking, "What are your plans"
Wen Man remained silent.
He was stunned for a moment, then dazed.
Of course she wouldn't say. What does it matter now that they are divorced
It's all over.
Wen Man got up, she called Xiao Bai over and put a leash on it. As she left, she whispered, "I'm going!"
Ho Shao-ting still sat at the table.
He really wanted to give her something, but he was afraid he wouldn't be able to bear parting with it.
He gazed at her serene and tranquil appearance, telling himself that this was for the best for both of them. Finally, he turned his face away, his voice raspy and broken: "Your uncle's car is downstairs!"
Wen Man lowered her eyes and hummed in response.
It's over...
As she reached for the doorknob, Huo Shaoting suddenly spoke, "Wen Man, whether you believe it or not, I love you!"
Wen Man's expression stiffened slightly.
Her fingertips brushed against the metal doorknob, but she gritted her teeth and opened it anyway.
The sun is shining outside.
Lu Qian's car was parked below, he came to pick her up in person.
She remained silent as she sat in the car, staring out the window.
Lu Qian smiled: "What, don't want to part with that rascal"
……
"No!"
……
Lu Qian's eyes were deep: "By the way, that bastard left in the middle of court today and permanently exited the legal profession!"
Wen Man was clearly startled.
"If it's not a problem, let's just keep going!"
Wen Man's heart fluttered.
Ho Shao-ting, what are you trying to do
On our divorce day, you walked away from law, swore off being a lawyer forever. What were you trying to say
Wen Man decided she didn't want to.
When things are over, they're over. There's no need to hold on to the past or each other anymore.
……
Wen Man left, Huo Shaoting sat alone in the apartment.
Everything was deserted all around.
He was utterly desolate.
He knew that Wen Man was preparing to study abroad. Lu Qian had already helped her get a visa for Switzerland, for three years.
Thus, a year has passed.
What would she look like when she came back Would there be anyone with her
Ho Shao-ting didn't know.
He only knew, he traded his marriage certificate for a possible future, even if he was consumed by longing, even if it hurt him, he had to watch her leave and set her free.
He sat down in front of the grand piano and played Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata.
He played for a long time, tireless!
In the evening, he received a phone call: "Mr. Huo, your daughter has opened her eyes. I think I should be the first to tell you this! Perhaps you'd like to see her and talk to her!"
He Shao-ting held his phone.
His Adam's apple bobbed incessantly, and finally, he choked back his emotions: "I'll be there soon!"
Thirty minutes later, a black Maybach stopped in front of a cutting-edge laboratory building.
This lab was built by a doctor from the United States. It specializes in conquering human biological genes. Xiao Hoxi was sent here half a month ago, of course, the treatment price is expensive...
in seconds!
Ho Shao-ting only pushed open the glass door, a blond foreigner handed him a small spacecraft.
"She's lucky!"
"The survival rate is now 50%. But Mr. Huo... this little baby is very difficult to feed, because we don't know what treatment methods will work and what kind of accidents might happen during her growth! In short... she must remain in our lab for observation and monitoring until she is two years old."
Ho Shao-ting was holding the small spacecraft.
Inside, there is a small thing.
It's whiter than before, with light brown fluff on the top of its head. Its eyes are especially beautiful and bright. It has a little blue vein near the tail of its eyebrow, inherited from its mother.
Xiao Ho gazed up at the person above him.
She suddenly broke into a sweet smile, revealing her adorable little gums.
At this moment, Huo Shaoting's inner anxiety was soothed. He kissed the little thing through the space capsule.
Whoa, I'm... your father!ed.So you just have to be envious!The children around were certainly envious: Huo Xi's mother was so beautiful!Her homeroom teacher came over, took hold of Xiao Hoxi's hand, and Xiao Hoxi couldn't hel...
