Chapter 158 - Return To The Old Land
Chapter 158 Return To The Old Land
“Sister, you have a child? How old are you?” Charlotte was surprised. She widened her eyes and looked at Charlotte curiously, “You’re married? When did it happen?”
Sensing Huo Yunqi’s cold gaze, Xia Luobing clenched her fingers and smiled, “You haven’t been home for so many years, so you naturally don’t know.”
She didn’t think that Wang Xiaoman really missed children when he suddenly mentioned Duo Duo.
“Married?” Huo Yunqi looked at Xia Luobing with a cold smile, “Xia Luobing, when did you get married?”
Suddenly, a bold idea flashed through Xia Luobing’s mind. She faced Huo Yunqi’s gaze and smiled, “My daughter is already three years old. When do you think I got married?”
Three years old?
Wang Xiaoman and Xia Luoxin exchanged glances. Both of them were surprised when they saw each other’s eyes. They both knew that Xia Luobing’s daughter was four years old, but now she said that she was three years old, so did this represent
“Sister, why didn’t you tell me earlier? I didn’t even buy a gift for the child.” Xia Luoxin said angrily. She leaned against Huo Yunqi’s arm and tilted her head to look at him with a smile. ” Yunqi, can you accompany me to pick a gift for the child?”
Originally, they wanted Huo Yunqi to think that the child was Gao Yi’an or Feng Shuo, but Xia Luo Bing didn’t want Huo Yunqi to know about the child at all. This was really great!
“I still have things to do, so I won’t eat here!” Xia Luobing glanced at the few of them and turned to look at Xia Yan. His tone softened a little, “Dad, I’ll bring Duo Duo to see you another day.”
Xia Yan felt his daughter pinch her palm. He raised his head in surprise and saw her blink at him. A hint of helplessness slid past his eyes. He escorted her to the door and saw that no one beside him said, “Bing Bing, you …”
“Dad, Gao Yi’an went to pick up the child. I’ll go first.” Xia Luobing’s gaze crossed Xia Yan and landed on a man and a woman who had been staring at her, and he tugged at the corner of his mouth.
Did they specifically call her back to watch this good show? Now that the play was over, it was time for her to leave.
The black military cheetah was like a leopard that had been injured all along. Ling Lie’s wind cut through the black night. Xia Luobing held the steering wheel tightly, her mind constantly flashing with the look of Xia Luoxin leaning against Huo Yunqi’s body, her lips pursed tightly.
She and he had finally come to this point where there was no way to retreat.
She deliberately let Yunqi hear what she said to her father and deliberately made her words ambiguous. Now he should believe that the child was Gao Yi’an. Duo Duo could finally stay by her side forever.
Her suspended heart finally relaxed, but it was a heart-wrenching pain that made her breathe with the smell of blood.
“Creak!”
Xia Luobing abruptly stepped on the brakes and the car stopped abruptly. Xia Luobing pushed open the door and the cold wind pounced on her. Only then did she realize that she was driving all the way to the seaside.
The distant lighthouse and the stars in the sky were reflected on the quiet seashore, dots of light swaying along with the seawater like diamonds scattered in the sea, magnificent.
“Let’s just do this” Xia Luobing muttered. The bitter smile at the corner of his mouth widened as his eyes blinked, forcing all the moisture back.
Ever since her mother died, she has rarely shed tears, and now she won’t let herself be fragile.
” Xia Luobing, looks like you’ve had a good time these past few years.”
A cold mocking voice came from behind. Xia Luobing’s body stiffened and her fingers clenched. She was extremely glad that the black night had blocked all her small movements.
“President Huo, oh no, maybe I should call you brother-in-law.” Xia Luobing slowly turned around and looked at Yunqi Huo. “Shouldn’t you be by Luo Xin’s side at this time? It’s not good to run out like this.”
Huo Yunqi took a step forward and approached Xia Luobing. Looking at the woman’s face, he grabbed her wrist and said, “Are you and Gao Yi’an’s daughter four years old?”
So just as he left City A, she was with Gao Yi’an?
Something was wrong. Perhaps, before he left, they were already together. That was why she left behind a divorce agreement ruthlessly.
“Didn’t you already know?” Xia Luobing frowned in pain, but she couldn’t help but not make a sound. He looked at Yunqi calmly and said, “We are divorced. I have the freedom to choose happiness.”
Happiness? Freedom?
Huo Yunqi’s eyes lit up with rage as his cold voice penetrated into his bones. “Xia Luobing, it seems like you’ve had a good five years!”
In the past five years, he has developed QC from an independent brand to a listed company. When he encountered difficulties and had no way out, he wondered what kind of expression she would have if she returned to City A and met Xia Luobing again.
He had imagined many things, but none of them were like this. Not only did the woman in front of him not feel the slightest bit guilty, she even righteously talked to him about happiness and freedom!
What a ridiculous joke!
“Five years ago … I’m sorry.” Xia Luobing bit her lips and looked at Huo Yunqi’s burning eyes as she slowly said, “The past is over. Shall we let each other go?”
He already had Xia Luoxin by his side, and she also had many flowers, so as long as they lived peacefully, wouldn’t it be good?
“Let him go?” Huo Yunqi’s eyes were as deep as obsidian in the dark night, making it hard to guess what he was thinking. His voice faintly sounded in Charlotte’s ears, “Charlotte, if you were standing in my position, would you let go?”
Xia Luobing was stunned for a moment. He looked at the man with hatred in his eyes. He felt a chill run from the soles of his feet to his forehead. He couldn’t help but shiver for a long time.
Yunqi Huo was right. If she lost everything she cared about because of someone else, she would definitely not forgive her
Time seemed to have stopped. Xia Luobing moved his eyes away and his gaze fell on the dark sea. He said faintly, “What do you want?”
What she owed him should be repaid. As long as she could stay with Duo Duo, nothing else mattered.
“The Xia Corporation is just the beginning.” Huo Yunqi let go of Charlotte’s wrist, but raised her hand to pinch her chin. She approached Charlotte’s ice face and said word by word, “You and Gao Yi’an’s daughter are very cute.”
Xia Luobing couldn’t help but shiver and blurt out, “You can’t hurt them!”
She was willing to endure all of his anger, but her daughter could not be harmed, and Gao Yi’an was even more innocent.
“Them?” Huo Yunqi seemed to have heard something extremely ridiculous. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed. He lowered his head and bit Xia Luobing’s lips as if he was punishing her. It was as if he was venting all his anger on her delicate lips.
Xia Luobing’s pupils suddenly dilated. She instinctively wanted to push Huo Yunqi away, but the man grabbed her hands and pressed them against the carriage above her head. Her smell was the same as what she remembered.
Originally, he wanted to punish and humiliate Xia Luobing, but now, Ho Yunqi subconsciously sank down. The familiar feeling made him suddenly return to the days when he was with Xia Luobing
The sea breeze blew Charlotte’s hair like a messy flag waving in the darkness. Charlotte’s eyes were a little confused, but she suddenly woke up because of the coolness of the sea breeze. She bit down on Huo Yunqi fiercely and saw that Huo Yunqi was in pain. She hated him and said, “Huo Yunqi, you’re going too far!”
He already had Xia Luoxin, and she was willing to accept his punishment and revenge, but what was it now? Another way to insult her?
Seeing the anger and hatred in Xia Luobing’s eyes, Huo Yunqi was momentarily absent-minded and regretful. But when he thought of that child called Duo Duo, he sneered, “Captain Xia is worried that he won’t be able to explain to Gao Yi’an at home?”
“This is my business!” Charlotte said coldly, pausing word by word, “President Huo should be a little more self-respectful!”
After saying that, Xia Luobing turned around to pull the car door, but she felt her body suddenly floating in the air. She was already hugged by Huo Yunqi, and his heartbeat could be heard beside her ears. She raised her head to see the man’s sharp face.
“Let go of me!” Charlotte clenched her fingers and tried her best to suppress her urge to beat someone up.
She didn’t want to fight Yunqi, but she didn’t want to accept his humiliation again and again.
“Xia Luobing, if you don’t want anything to happen to your daughter, you’d better be obedient!” Huo Yunqi said bluntly. He opened the door of his car and threw Xia Luobing in. He looked at her and continued, “Do you think I can’t find the child if I leave it with Gao Yi’an?”
Because of this, Xia Luobing’s clenched fist suddenly loosened. She widened her eyes and looked at the man who was constantly emitting a dangerous aura. She gritted her teeth and said, “Don’t hurt them!”
Huo Yunqi did investigate her. He even knew that the child was at Gao Yi’an’s place. This made Xia Luobing feel a strong sense of crisis. Could it be that he knew the identity of the child … No, he wouldn’t
Seeing that Xia Luobing had calmed down, Huo Yunqi’s mood did not improve, but became more and more irritated. He ridiculed her and said, “You really care about them!”
If Charlotte had cared so much about him back then, he and she would definitely not be like this!
He suddenly stepped on the accelerator and the car leapt out like an injured cheetah. Xia Luobing was so shocked that he almost cried out in alarm. But in the end, he still tightly grabbed the main seat belt and silently looked at the pitch-black night.
There were too many things between her and him, and now she could not go back.
When the car stopped in front of a villa, Xia Luobing looked out the window and was stunned, “Why did you bring me here?”
This villa was where they lived after they got married five years ago. Now that they came here again, they felt that those things were so far away that it seemed as if centuries had passed. The desolation of things and people filled every part of her senses.
“Get off the car!” Huo Yunqi threw this sentence out and directly pushed open the car door. Xia Luobing did not understand what he meant and could only get out of the car.
Huo Yunqi narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the pitch-black villa. After a while, he turned to stare at Xia Luobing and said word by word, “You will live here in the future!”
He spoke very slowly and bit every word clearly, as if he was afraid that Xia Luobing would not be able to hear him clearly.
“What do you mean?” Xia Luobing frowned in surprise as he looked at Huo Yunqi and said in a deep voice, “I have my own home!”
‘”If you want your daughter and Gao Yi’an to be fine, you’d better do as I say!” Huo Yunqi smiled dangerously.
