party needed to lower themselves to the other, let alone grovel and fawn. She didn't need his investment; she could invest herself if she wanted to.Jiang Lan knew in his heart that...But he throws wit...Mrs. Gu's visit to the Li family, Gu Yunfan naturally knew about it.

At this time, he was in Gu's CEO office, bending over to play snooker. This was a hobby he learned from Huo Xi...Huo Xi was there too, and the two played a game together.

In a corner of the luxurious office, a set of sofas was arranged where he sat calmly attending to his business.

Just then, Zhang's secretary knocked and came in.

She glanced at Mr. Gu, who was playing happily, and whispered to Anran: "Mr. An, there's a call from H City. I don't know who leaked the news, but someone knows that Mr. Gu is going to give shares to Miss Li. It's causing quite a stir now. They want someone to push Mr. Gu's wheelchair over and make him explain."

An Ran smiled faintly: "There are more than 6,000 employees in the entire company, over 200 middle-level managers, and more than 20 senior executives... This kind of confidential information, besides these 20 or so people, no one else would know. Check it out! ... Mr. Gu doesn't like having people around him who are not loyal."

Ms. Zhang nodded and then whispered, "What about the h city side"

An Ran was silent for a moment, then said: "Show her the current shareholding structure of Gu's. She'll probably understand that she should be recuperating instead of interfering in company matters. It's not good for her health at all."

Zhang's secretary understood and exited the president's office.

Anran closed her laptop and looked over. Gu Yunfan was talking business with Huo Xi, probably about a large-scale land development project that involved some disputes, requiring Huo Xi to navigate the situation.

Looking at Gu Zong's eloquent and confident manner, he exuded the charm of a mature man.

Anran thought of Li Siqi.

She can't beat Mr. Gu, so An Ran gently shook her head. She glanced at her watch and said to Gu Yunfan and Huo Xi, "I'm going now. I have to pick up Linxi from school today."

Gu Yunfan turned his face sideways and let out a light hum: "I just heard Lawyer Huo say that Huo Yunshi's car was parked downstairs at Gu Shi."

"We, as a husband and wife, will take care of Linxi together."

Gu Yunfan waved his hand: "Stop showing off your love here! Get going!"

An Ran smiled and nodded to Huo Xi again: "I'm leaving first!"

Hoshie also waved goodbye to her.

Anran rode the special elevator downstairs. Huo Yunsi's black Rolls-Royce was parked right at the entrance of Gu's company, very ostentatious. As she approached, the passenger door opened.

"I could have driven myself," she said quietly, settling into the car.

Huo Yunsi fastened the seatbelt for her: "A car each for a married couple That's quite something!"

He fastened the seat belt for her and was about to get up when An Ran, holding his handsome face gently in her hands, softly said, "President Huo, don't you think we are too clingy We don't even have any personal space."

"Not at all!"

He covered her hand with his, leaned close to her face, and murmured something shameless: “Last night you didn't say we were too clingy when I was serving you, Ms. An. You just forget about it after getting out of bed!”

Even after several years of marriage, Anran still isn't used to it.

Every time Huo Yunsi uttered a curse word, her feelings came on quickly. She had never imagined that the seemingly proper Mr. Huo would have such a unrestrained side in private.

But when that person is her husband, she likes him very much.

Huo Yunsi is a good husband and a good father. Even when he's on business trips, he makes time to video chat with her... The night he comes back from a trip, he always clings to her, looking eager to be with her.

She never asked, but she knew in her heart that he had never been with another woman.

She held Huo Yunsi's handsome face in her hands and whispered, "Linxi is on vacation next week. Let's go on a trip!"

Ho Yunsi kissed her.

After a lingering kiss, his voice was husky: "This time we absolutely have to book a villa, let Lin Xi bring An An... Otherwise, Mr. An, our vacation would be wasted."

An Ran loved him deeply and was willing to fulfill this small wish of his.

Just as the couple was getting intimate, a black Range Rover pulled up beside their car. The window rolled down to reveal Zhang Chongguang.

Huo Yunsi also rolled down the car window and greeted him.

"Come pick up Hochi"

Zhang Chongguang leaned back in his chair, gave a faint smile, but did not answer his question: "Go pick up Linxi with Anran"

Ho Yunsi nodded.

He glanced at his watch, realizing time was running out. He bid farewell to Zhang Chongguang.

The car drove quite a distance before Anran couldn't help but speak up, "Yunshi, I think over the past few years, my relationship with Chongguang has always been stable. There's..."

Huo Yunsi held the steering wheel, focusing intently on the road ahead.

He hummed in agreement.

The red light ahead had him pull over. He looked at his wife and softly said, "Do you remember Bai Qi He was my sister's..."

……

Zhang Chongguang's car was parked downstairs from Gushe Building. He didn't go upstairs to greet anyone, nor did he call Huo Xi.

He sat in the car, waiting quietly.

Today, Mian Mian and Zhang Rui were picked up by Huo Shao Ting. He also dismissed the servants in the villa. He prepared a table of dishes to pick up Huo Xi back and have a good talk with them.

Right next to that is Hosei's car.

He waited for about an hour, Huo Xi came out of the Gu Corporation building, accompanied by Gu Yunfan's secretary. They probably chatted about some women's things. The corner of Huo Xi's mouth twitched slightly upwards, it was a very natural smile.

Zhang Chongguang stared blankly.

Actually, he hadn't seen her smile like that in a long time. She was very gentle in front of their child and occasionally accompanied him to social events outside, also giving him, her husband, face. She could be considered a model noblewoman.

But nobody knew their marriage had long since become hollow.

His wife didn't need him at all.

Indeed, when he saw him, Huo Xi's smile froze.

But she quickly covered it up, walking over and asking softly, "Why are you here You should have called me."

After everyone left, Zhang Chongguang's dark eyes fixed on his wife. He reached out and extinguished the cigarette between his fingers, then countered, "Do I need to report if I want to give my wife a surprise"

Outside, Hoseki never argued with him.

She cheerfully opened the car door, sat beside him, and fastened her seatbelt while asking him, "Are RuiRui and MianMian at my parents' place Should we go there for dinner or eat out"

Zhang Chongguang did not answer immediately.

Huo Xi couldn't help but look at him, only to see the unfathomable depths in his eyes. After a long silence, he smiled: "I cooked a whole table of dishes at home earlier. Let's eat alone!"

Her body stiffened at the implication in his words.

But no one could pierce through it.

On the road, the two of them were silent, as if there was nothing to say.

...until the car stopped in the villa's parking lot, Huo Xi unbuckled his seatbelt and was about to get out of the car…but then he heard a faint sound, Zhang Chongguang locked the car doors.

Huo Xi couldn't open it and tilted her head to look at him, "Why is it locked"

Zhang Chongguang sat for a few seconds, then he took out a box of cigarettes from the storage compartment, pulled one out and then remembered that the car doors and windows were all closed, so he gave up.

He stared ahead, where the road opened onto a grassy green lawn.

Zhang Chongguang's voice was very soft, and he said in a declarative tone: "Just now downstairs at Gu Shi Building, I ran into Yunsi and Anran. They looked very happy and loving... When Yunsi was speaking, Anran's eyes were always on him. Later, Yunsi didn't know what he said, she laughed very happily."

Hoshie released his grip on the car door.

She, like him, sat upright staring straight ahead. She said very calmly, "If you're not satisfied with the current state of our marriage, I told you we could get a divorce! Zhang Chongguang... there are so many young women out there, there must be one who can make you happy. Why do you have to limit yourself to us"

Zhang Chongguang suddenly ducked to the side.

He glared at her, his eyes almost wild with hatred.

He stared at her, questioning each word: "Mrs. Zhang, do you think what I want is a young woman outside Do you know what I want After all these years, how long are you going to keep me cold Are you just waiting for me to cheat, waiting for me to have fun outside Do you think this marriage is unbearable for you You're just...you're just afraid of hurting my parents. Don't you endure every day and night, every moment Don't you...love me even a little bit"

Compared to his excitement, Huo Xi was much calmer.

She lowered her eyes and smiled faintly, "Zhang Chongguang, what answer do you want to hear"ng Xiao Jiang Sheng like a lamb. He spoke softly: “Then when I’m free, I’ll take the child to visit you.”< Huo Jiao did not refuse, softly humming in agreement. >Jiang Lan listened, tilting her head t...
