Huo Shaoting reached out to touch her face, but Wen Man subconsciously took a step back.
Finally, he put down his hand.
"No matter what you say, your vitality is severely damaged!"
"Wen Man, I feel very sad."
"Let me take care of you..."
…
Wen Man listened quietly.
She looked at him expressionlessly, "Lawyer Huo, do I have to be blunt? I know you do like me a little bit, but this kind of love is too weak. Every time you meet Qiao An and something happens... you will never look back.
I have to go to her, no matter how I am, whether I am sad or sad or lying on the operating table!"
As Wen Man spoke, her heart ached sharply.
But she elicited a smile.
"Lawyer Huo, I can't afford to like people like you!"
Huo Shaoting walked inside.
He gently held the back of her head and wanted to kiss her, hoping to save her.
At least, it reminded her of their past love.
Wen Man was stunned.
She was so stiff under his tender movements that even her heart felt so painful that it was almost numb.
She didn't know where she got the strength to push him away.
"Huo Shaoting, would you like to have some face?"
"I, Wen Man... am I the dog that you can just come and go? If you want to find a woman to sleep with, just grab a few of them based on your conditions and looks with your eyes closed! There is no need to pester me like this."
Huo Shaoting's pupils were dark.
"You think I just want to sleep with you?"
Wen Man asked with trembling lips: "Otherwise?... get married?"
Huo Shaoting's breathing became hotter.
He clenched his palms, and after a long time, he said slightly tiredly during this confrontation: "Wen Man, I have no plans to get married! It's not that I'm playing tricks on you, but that marriage is not in my life plan."
Wen Man lowered her eyes.
She smiled softly: "Don't worry, I have no intention of intervening in your life."
After she finished speaking, she was about to close the door.
Huo Shaoting stopped her.
He frowned slightly: "In my heart, you are more important than Qiao An!"
Wen Man raised her eyes and looked straight at him.
There was shock and anger in her eyes!
As if she had heard the funniest joke of the century, she repeated softly: "Am I more important than Joan?"
Huo Shaoting looked serious.
Wen Man smiled slightly: "I remember that Qiao An has a financial dispute that you have to deal with, Huo Shaoting... You said that I am more important than her, so I, a more important person, ask you to give up cooperation with her."
She laughed mockingly: "Can you do it?"
Huo Shaoting frowned.
He has always kept a clear distinction between public and private affairs. If a woman were to get on top of him and interfere with his work, he would never allow it...
He looked at her: "Can you make another request?"
Wen Man bent down, picked up the supplements he brought, and threw them out the door.
"One more request, that is, get out of here!"
"Huo Shaoting, please never appear in front of me again, it makes me sick."
…
Wen Man closed the door.
She pressed against the door panel and seemed to be able to smell the tobacco smell on Huo Shaoting's body.
Once upon a time, she loved lying in his arms so much.
She liked to press against his neck and feel his breath through a layer of skin and flesh. The smell of tobacco mixed with aftershave made her deeply fascinated.
But now, she just wants to stay away.
After a while, Bai Wei came back, looking bad. She thought she had a quarrel with Huo Shaoting down there.
Wen Man regained her senses.
She said: "Don't offend him because of me. Yao Zian always has business dealings with the Huo family."
Bai Wei showed off her strong words.
In fact, she was heartbroken.
Wen Man slowly opened the lunch box and said softly: "Don't worry, I will recover."
Although this process will be a bit painful.
But...it will pass!
…
Wen Man recovered for a few days and then went back to work.
Because of Gu Changqing, Wen Man couldn't take the funds from Mr. Xu, so she apologized to Sister Li.
Sister Li is very tolerant.
She patted Wen Man and said, "The earth is round. If this one doesn't work, there will be another one! I've made an appointment with some venture capitalists to have dinner together tonight. Wen Man, you should come with us."
Wen Man was particularly grateful to Sister Li for her generosity.
After a brief chat, she called Mrs. Xu herself.
"Mrs. Xu, I'm sorry that Mr. Xu and I can't cooperate anymore! But if Jiajia is willing to learn from me, I will teach her well."
Mrs. Xu also learned the whole story from her husband.
Including Gu Changqing...
Including Huo Shaoting...
She admired the energy of this teacher Wen. She originally thought it would be difficult to get along with him, but she didn't expect him to be so polite now and not rely on men.
Mrs. Xu suddenly felt good about her.
She thought: Teacher Wen seems to be quite reliable, and although she relies on Lao Xu, she still needs some investment of her own!
But Mrs. Xu is also a smart person, she has to look at Huo Shaoting's attitude.
If Lawyer Huo wanted to invest, she couldn't rob him.
…
eight pm.
Wen Man attended the dinner party with Sister Li. She was recovering from illness, but she was actually not very good at drinking.
But she has caused a lot of trouble for Sister Li. How can she let Sister Li drink two drinks by herself at this time?
Wen Man smiled slightly and drank half a glass of red wine in one gulp.
The mellow red wine entered her stomach and caused some discomfort, but she still smiled slightly.
"Okay, Teacher Wen is a drinker!"
“Teacher Wen is so refreshing!”
"Pour some more for Teacher Wen."
…
In the luxurious box, illuminated by crystal lamps, the atmosphere is very good.
Wen Man was poured nearly a bottle of red wine.
There was an unnatural paleness on her face, and Sister Li noticed it and whispered, "Go to the bathroom. I'll find a reason later and I'll let you go first."
Wen Man shook his head: "Let's go together."
Sister Li sighed softly.
She knew about Wen Man and Huo Shaoting, and she also knew that Wen Man could do whatever he wanted as long as he was willing.
But Wen Man doesn’t want to be the second lover!
In addition to pity, Li Ming also felt a little admired.
She is a master at dinner parties and can stir up the atmosphere with just a few words, "You guys also want to give us, Teacher Wen, a break. I'll drink this drink with Mr. Lin."
That Mr. Lin is the boss of a six-star hotel.
He had met Wen Man and knew that she was Huo Shaoting's "girlfriend".
Someone in the same box was trying to get Wen Man to drink. He couldn't stop him openly, so he could only secretly send a message to Brother Shao Ting and ask him what was going on!
Wen Man ran to the bathroom.
Her stomach felt very uncomfortable, but she couldn't vomit...
I turned on the cold water and splashed my face vigorously a few times, and then I felt much better.
But she was drunk after all...
When she saw the slender figure appearing in the bathroom, she couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream, so she looked straight at it, and the corners of her eyes turned red.
Huo Shaoting walked to her side and calmly washed his hands.
Wen Man didn't make a sound.
She leaned against the cold tile wall and looked at him fragilely...
Huo Shaoting washed his hands very slowly.
After a long silence, Wen Man finally confirmed that he was alive and that they had indeed met by chance...
She didn't say anything, turned and left.
Huo Shaoting said softly from behind her: "Wen Man, is this the life you want?"
