Chapter 168 In the middle of the night, Huo Shaoting didn't go home!
Walking out of the study, Huo Shaoting pulled Wen Man over.
He held her in his arms and said nothing... Wen Man felt a little aggrieved.
But it was the New Year and she was at his house, so she couldn't be a little angry.
She lay on his shoulder, smelling the delicious aftershave on his body, and asked in a low voice: "How late will you be back?"
Huo Shaoting will go to the office later.
The lawyer hired by Qiao An's husband is waiting for negotiations.
Huo Shaoting thought for a while and said, "Come back before dinner! I will come back to have dinner with you, and then we will go back to the apartment together... Wen Man, this matter will not affect our lives."
Wen Man forced a smile.
In the afternoon, Huo Shaoting left with Huo Zhendong.
Mrs. Huo originally wanted to take her two children out, but now she lost her mood...
The atmosphere in Huo Zhai was a bit depressing.
Wen Man waited from day to night, but did not wait for Huo Shaoting to come back.
He made a phone call and asked her to eat first and then ask the driver to take her back to the apartment. He said he would be back later.
Wen Man didn't ask what time it was.
When it comes to Qiao An, she is always somewhat proud and self-respecting.
At eight o'clock in the evening, when Wen Man took Xiaobai away, Mrs. Huo was particularly apologetic.
Wen Man smiled slightly: "It's okay!"
But she knew clearly in her heart that she felt nothing but bitterness this whole day...
Got in the car.
The driver did not drive immediately, but the rear door was opened.
Gu Changqing appeared in the night.
The driver was very sensible. He could tell that my uncle had something to do with Miss Wen, so it was good for him not to talk too much.
Gu Changqing held on to the roof of the car and looked at Wen Man: "I have something to tell you."
Wen Man was in a bad mood and didn't want to pay attention to him at all.
Gu Changqing grabbed her arm and forcefully dragged her out of the car...
The night wind is strong.
Wen Man stared at him, Gu Changqing lowered his head and lit a cigarette. When the smoke rose, he looked at her: "If this is the case, you still want to be with him? This kind of cross-border divorce lawsuit will last for a dozen or two years. You have to watch it."
Does Huo Shaoting keep seeing his old lover? If Qiao An cuts his artery, Huo Shaoting will go to the hospital to be a dutiful son... Wen Man, do you want such a relationship? Can you bear such grievance? "
These words are very unpleasant, and she also hates Gu Changqing.
But what he said was absolutely right!
Wen Man spoke calmly: "Gu Changqing... whether my life is good or not has nothing to do with you!"
Gu Changqing suddenly smashed the roof of the car!
The driver was startled.
Gu Changqing's face looked scary in the night, and he questioned her: "Wen Man, in your heart, I just have no humanity, and I just don't want you to live well! But have you ever thought about it, I also want you to be happy!
"
Gu Changqing was probably too excited.
His fingers holding the cigarette were trembling: "Pour the damn water out of your head. It's a hundred times better for you to follow Jiang Rui than to follow him!"
Wen Man looked pale.
Gu Changqing stared at her quietly, and suddenly he said softly and gently: "Wen Man, maybe you give me another chance! I won't let you down again."
Wen Man got in the car.
She sat in the back seat and said quietly: "Gu Changqing, it's too late!"
After saying that, she asked the driver to drive.
The driver sighed and stepped on the accelerator lightly.
On the way, Wen Man remained silent, but the young driver couldn't help but say, "Don't worry, Miss Wen, I won't gossip about what happened tonight!"
Wen Man didn't make a sound.
Now...she doesn't seem to care that much!
She returned to Huo Shaoting's apartment, made a nest for Xiaobai, and then waited...
Wait for Huo Shaoting to come back!
Wen Man waited until 12 o'clock at night, but he still hadn't come back.
It's quite quiet at night...
Only the little white dog was walking around her heels, circling back and forth.
Wen Man sat in front of the morningdew and played it over and over again. She played all the songs she remembered once, but Huo Shaoting still didn't come back.
The little white dog was so sleepy that he lay at her feet.
Wen Man sat in front of the piano, facing the invincible night view of City B.
But she felt extremely depressed.
She examined this relationship and found that she had no way out...
…
Huo Shaoting didn't come home all night.
Early in the morning, Wen Man took Xiaobai out of the apartment and returned to his nest.
Huo Shaoting probably went back later and called her to ask.
Wen Man held the phone and didn't know what to say.
Huo Shaoting was probably very busy. After saying a few words, he received a call on his cell phone, so he had to hang up.
In this way, they didn't see each other for several days.
At this time, another problem occurred in the music room.
After the opening ceremony on the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Sister Li invited Wen Man to her office to drink coffee alone. Wen Man felt that Sister Li's complexion was not good, so she couldn't help but express some concern.
"Wen Man, I have stomach cancer!" Sister Li told her softly.
…
Wen Man was holding the coffee cup and blinked slightly when he heard this.
Then, the tears fell.
She didn't wipe it, but asked gently: "Have you reviewed it?"
…
"I've checked again. I've been to the best hospitals at home and abroad! Wen Man, I want to go to Switzerland to recuperate. I don't want to give my shares to others. If possible, I want you to take over. I have no other requirements as long as I can get my capital back.
That’s it!”
Sister Li held Wen Man's hand.
Wen Man put down the coffee cup.
Her fingers were trembling. After a long time, she said: "I will accompany you to Switzerland!"
Sister Li shook her head.
She has always been strong, but she still has a wish at this time.
She and Wen Man bought this music center. She was ill, but she hoped that Wen Man could survive.
Sister Li said a lot.
Wen Man couldn't afford it for the time being, because it would cost more than 10 million to buy Sister Li's shares.
She doesn't want to take this money from Huo Shaoting!
In the evening, she went back to Wen Boyan's place for dinner.
Aunt Ruan saw that she was in a bad mood, so she expressed some concern.
Wen Man talked about Sister Li's condition and the music center. Wen Boyan asked Aunt Ruan: "How many more do we have there? Give them to the children!"
Aunt Ruan went back to her room and counted.
There are a few million, but there is still a big gap.
Aunt Ruan was quite creative in this aspect. She said, "It's not easy for Director Li. You guys worked hard to open this music center. In this way, your father and I can sell this apartment for about 20 million, and we can't do it just for the two of us."
If we need such a big house, then we can move to an 80-square-meter house, which will be enough."
Wen Man refused.
Wen Boyan finally made the decision: "Just do what your aunt says!"
Wen Man felt very sorry, and Aunt Ruan said softly: "You are the only child of Boyan and I. If we don't give these to you, who will we give them to?"
This house is located in a prosperous area and many people want to buy it.
Within three days, the transaction was completed.
The Wen family moved into a smaller house, and Aunt Ruan handed the 10 million bankbook to Wen Man, "Give this to Director Li, and remember to give another favor. You have been taken care of by her over the years!"
Wen Man nodded.
She couldn't help but said: "When the money comes back, I will buy you a big house."
Aunt Ruan laughed: "Your father and I are just waiting to enjoy the blessing of having a daughter!"
…
Wen Man still has some in her hand.
She made an appointment with Sister Li to meet in a coffee shop. In just a few days, Sister Li lost a lot of weight.
She also wanted to order coffee.
Wen Man stopped her: "Don't drink this if you're not feeling well!"
Sister Li smiled.
Wen Man pushed the check to her, the total amount was 12 million, and the other 500,000 was Wen Man's wish.
Sister Li refused to accept it.
Wen Man gently held her hand: "I'm waiting for you to come back!"
She is keeping those shares temporarily, and when Sister Li comes back, she will transfer them all to her.
Sister Li does not have many relatives, nor a husband or children.
She wasn't worried at first.
When Wen Man said this, she smiled with a sour nose and scolded: "Bad boy, I still want to find a handsome guy abroad and won't come back. It's better for you to drag me down with the music room!"
Although they were laughing, both of them were sad!
Late stage gastric cancer, how much time is left?
After saying goodbye this time, I wonder what it will be like when we meet again!
Wen Man was in a particularly depressed mood!
She had a meal with Sister Li as a farewell, but she didn't expect that she would meet Huo Shaoting here.
Counting the time, they haven't seen each other for almost a week.
Even on the phone, there are only a few words!
When we meet at this time, we can’t help but sigh!
Huo Shaoting was not alone. He was accompanied by Secretary Zhang and two strange men.
Wen Man knew he was talking about business and just nodded lightly.
She was going to send Sister Li home.
Sister Li refused and shook her head gently.
She is a shrewd and powerful person. When she saw the unfamiliarity between Wen Man and Huo Shaoting at a glance, she smiled lightly and said, "I can just take a taxi."
Wen Man had no choice but to give her a taxi and watch her get in the car.
In the night, Sister Li's thin back was invisible in the taxi.
Wen Man felt sad. She stood alone in the dark night for a long time.
…
"Wen Man..."
Wen Man turned around and saw Huo Shaoting standing under the neon sky.
She is so pure and noble that even the brightest light cannot cover her up even half of it.
After a long time, Wen Man asked slowly: "Have you finished talking about the official business?"
Huo Shaoting hummed slightly.
He took the car key from her hand and said gently: "You are not in good condition, let me drive!"
Wen Man had no objection.
After getting in the car, he asked her: "Go to my place?"
Wen Man leaned back on the chair and said a little tiredly: "Xiao Bai is at my place, I'll take you back!"
Huo Shaoting felt that she was cold and frowned slightly.
However, he did not show any displeasure. Instead, he said considerately: "Then we'll spend the night at your place. You can rest later and I'll take it away!"
Wen Man didn't object.
She thought that if she objected, it would appear that she was too stingy and cared too much!
Huo Shaoting seemed to want to talk to her and asked casually: "Are you having dinner with Director Li? I think she doesn't look very good."
Wen Man nodded and explained the matter.
After she finished speaking, Huo Shaoting stopped the car at the intersection, and there was a red light in front of him.
He looked ahead and said softly: "Why didn't you tell me if you wanted money?"
The Wen family even sold their house and replaced it with a smaller one.
As a man, it is impossible for Huo Shaoting not to care!
Wen Man lowered her eyes: "Huo Shaoting, I don't want to spend your money right now!"
There is silence in the air...
After a long while, he asked: "Is it because you don't feel safe?"
Wen Man did not answer his words.
In fact, she didn't regret it. Those nights were too ambiguous and exciting, so she agreed to him easily! She accepted this feeling bravely...
Now her courage is still there, but she is a little timid.
