Chapter 31: I've Been Too Indulgent
a master at managing her husband. Shen Zhaolin practically obeys her every word, placing her at the pinnacle of the upper-class social circles for women. 。Upon recognizing Gu Qingcheng's identity, th...Bai Yihuan stared in horror, her eyes wide with disbelief as she looked at the man before her.
Seeing his icy expression, his dark eyes were filled with a bone-chilling coldness, which instantly unsettled my heart.
"Shen Xi, you know I can't live without this child," Bai Yihuan's eyes were glistening with tears as she looked up at Huo Chenxi pitifully. "I know I was wrong. I promise, from now on, I will always listen to you..."
Huo Chenxi subconsciously glanced in the direction of the rest room. The wooden door was tightly shut, silent and still, as if isolating the world outside.
Su He wasn't curious at all, not even a crack left open.
Huo Chen Xi slowly opened his mouth, his tone laced with obvious disappointment: "These years, I've been too lenient with you."
Bai Yihuan heard him say that, and cried even harder, tears streaming down her face: "You... won't care about me anymore"
He Chen Xi fell silent,
not denying.
Bai Yihuan bit her lip tightly: "You don't even care about the child in my belly"
Ho Chenxi's thin lips opened, his attitude indifferent: "Strictly speaking, what do I have to do with you"
Bai Yihuan never expected Huo Chenxi to be so cold. Overwhelmed with grief, she lost control and blurted out, "It has nothing to do with you If it weren't for you entrusting me to your good brother, how would I have been bullied and become pregnant"
Huo Chenxi gritted his teeth, his temples throbbing with veins bulging.
Did she think she could keep some things from him forever, that he'd never find out
"You know, with my physique, I can't keep this child. There will never be another child of my own." Bai Yihuan covered her face and cried bitterly. "It was you who told me that you would give me and the child a name, wouldn't let people look down on me."
Huo Chenxi's jaw clenched tightly, and he said in a harsh voice: "So, you not only contacted the media to hype up rumors and mislead everyone into thinking the child was mine, but you also secretly contacted Ms. He to have her give Su He your prenatal checkup report"
Bai Yihuan's face turned pale, her body swayed, and she had to grab the edge of her desk to steady herself.
Ho Chenxi actually wants to draw a line with Su He
"If it weren't for her, the one marrying you would have been me. She stole my place, and I'm simply taking back what belongs to me." Bai Yihuan said through gritted teeth, her eyes red with anger.
A hint of mockery flashed in Huo Chenxi's eyes: "You should know, my marriage partner has never considered you!"
Bai Yihuan unwillingly glared with wide eyes, shaking her head desperately: "Impossible, you're lying to me. If you never considered marrying me, why didn't you explain when everyone mistook me for your girlfriend or jokingly called me your fiancée"
"These misunderstandings, weren't you deliberately trying to use my influence I just didn't want to embarrass you too much, as things are already bad enough for the Bai family."
Ho Chenxi gave no explanation, not even a shred of warmth. His words pierced Bai Yihuan's heart like a ruthless blade.
"That's not right," Bai Yihuan shook her head, unwilling to believe it. "You must be angry with me and deliberately said that, weren't you"
From a young age, she was bullied. He was always the first to stand up for her and support her.
She was sick, and he would rather give up his current job to come and take care of her, coaxing her to take medicine.
She wanted to study under a world-renowned piano master, so he traveled thousands of miles with her work to persuade the teacher to take her on as a student.
……
He did so much for her that everyone who knew them believed he was deeply in love with her.
Even Granny Huo thought he was going to marry her.
In order for him to marry Su He, he spared no effort in designing a scheme to force her to go abroad, just to cut off Huo Chenxi's thoughts of marrying her.
Ignoring the cold and distant aura emanating from Huo Chenxi, Bai Yihuan recklessly rushed into his arms, like an octopus clinging to him, her lips eagerly pressing against his.
She is pregnant after all, so even if she decides to ignore her, she can't let anything happen to her in his office.
Huo Chenxi hesitated for three seconds, but Bai Yihuan rushed at him, only managing to turn his head to avoid her kiss.
In the rest room, Su He received a call from Gu Qingcheng. After hesitating for a moment, she gritted her teeth and opened the door to walk out, just in time to see Bai Yihuan intimately leaning against Huo Chenxi's arms.
Ho Chenxi's purpose was to let her see him getting intimate with Bai Yihuan with her own eyes
It's a pity, she is no longer the Su He of before and wouldn't be saddened by this pain anymore.
Huo Chenxi didn't expect Su He to show up at this time. He hurriedly clutched his collar and pulled Bai Yihuan out of his arms.
"Sorry to bother you!" Su He shrugged and turned to walk out.
His heart skipped a beat for no apparent reason. Huo Chenxi instinctively took large strides forward, grabbed Su He's arm.
He knew that if he didn't explain now, it would be too late. But he was never one to offer explanations, and at this moment, he didn't know how to begin.
Bái Yìhuān, standing nearby, was taken aback. She never expected that Hòu Chénshī, who never let outsiders into his resting room, would actually have a woman there, and it was Sū Hé.
She was already angry and anxious because of Huo Shenxi's rejection, and now it was like pouring oil on fire, she rushed towards Su He as if possessed.
"You wretch, you won't let go even after the divorce! Can't you have some shame" Bai Yihuan was so angry that she almost lost her mind. She raised her hand without thinking and wanted to slap Su He across the face.
"That's enough!" Huo Chenxi shouted coldly, moving to block for Su He, but Su He reacted too quickly, slipping away from him and grabbing Bai Yihuan's wrist. She looked at them with a mocking expression.
"It's a pity Shao Huo didn't become an actor," Su He raised her chin and looked at Huo Chen Xi with disgust in her eyes.
Staging this whole thing, forcing her to attack Bai Yihuan, then using that as an excuse to pressure her into keeping the baby
If so, she will fulfill their kind intentions.
Su He's gaze slowly turned towards Bai Yihuan, who was struggling hard to break free from the restraints. A cruel smile curled up at the corner of Su He's mouth as he mercilessly flung Bai Yihuan away.
Bai Yihuan lost her balance and stumbled back two steps, instinctively struggling to regain her footing. But suddenly, an idea popped into her head: she might as well just go with the force of Su He's shove and fall backward.
As expected, she was right!
Su He let out a mocking smile.
However, the next second, Huo Shenxi's face changed color and he unexpectedly rushed towards Bai Yihuan, reaching out to hold her waist and pulling her into his arms.
Su He retracted her smile, her brows slightly furrowed, not understanding what he was trying to do.
Reluctant to see Bai Yihuan suffer, he changes his mind at the last minute
On the other hand, Bai Yihuan felt a powerful force on her waist. A huge wave of joy washed over her.
Huochenshi really still cares about her!
Through Huo Chenxi's arm, Bai Yihuan triumphantly and provocatively glanced at Su He. Seeing that her expression remained unchanged, she couldn't help but snort derisively.
Pretending to be a chaste and virtuous woman, but secretly, she's the one who throws herself at men.
Su He ignored Bai Yihuan and turned her eyes to Huo Chenxi, saying meaningfully, "Since you're asking for something, you need to show sincerity. I'll be waiting for you in the Yihe Group conference room tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock."
Since she's already here, she can't just leave empty-handed.
With a calm glance at the cooperation plan on his desk, Su He turned and walked out of Huo Chenxi's office.
Huo Chenxi shoved Bai Yihuan aside, trying to chase after Su He to explain himself, but Bai Yihuan held onto his sleeve tightly, staring at him with an almost resolute gaze.
"If you really abandon me, I'll die right away. Let Ah-Zio see how well you've been taking care of me!
"he influence of the medicine, Su He felt groggy, she still sensed Huo Chen Xi's heat during their first time together. She endured it all, experiencing both pain and happiness.Until she woke up, Huo C...
