ve of tenderness washed over him.His voice grew softer and lighter as he asked, "Are you worried about Dad too, aren't you"Little Shuai's cheeks were flushed red, and the little boy insisted he wasn't...The lights were dim.

Zhang Chongguang looked down at the woman in his arms. If it were usual, she would be as cold as ice.

But at this moment, her delicate brows and eyes were filled with infatuation.

He knew he was being despicable, and he knew Hoxie would hate him afterwards, but he couldn't help it... As long as they returned to their former life, slowly Hoxie's heart would thaw, plus the child growing inside her.

Ho Xi she loves children so much.

Zhang Chongguang raised his hand and took her hand, interlocking their fingers. He no longer deliberately ignored her but followed his own heart, enjoying complete bliss with her...

……

By the time it ended, it was almost ten o'clock at night.

In the dimly lit bedroom, not a ray of light pierced the oppressive darkness. The air hung heavy with the lingering scent of intimacy, enough to make anyone's cheeks flush and their heart race.

On a black satin sheet, Huo Xi lay with her back to Zhang Chongguang, covered by a thin blanket at her waist.

Sweat had long since cooled, and reason had fully returned.

She felt extreme disgust.

Behind him, Zhang Chongguang was supporting his head with one hand and stroking her long hair with the other. He asked gently, "How are you feeling"

Huo Xi's body stiffened slightly.

For a moment, she threw back the covers and got up to go to the bathroom, pulling the glass door shut.

The shower opens.

Huo Xi tilted her head back, letting the hot water mercilessly pour over her face and body. In that warm stream of water, those memories surged up frantically, leaving her with nowhere to hide.

……

The entwining of desires, the physical pleasure, all of it now filled her with disgust.

The water flowed downwards, Huo Xi closed his eyes, unwilling to think back.

Because every moment of joy in my memory is almost a torture of her.

Zhang Chongguang took the shower gel, squeezed out some, and rested his head on Huo Xi's thin shoulder, whispering softly, "What are you thinking about"

"Don't touch me!"

Hosei's reaction was huge, she pushed him away forcefully and stood face to face with him.

They had just consummated their marriage, a bath together should have been an intimate moment, but her expression was icy cold, even openly disgusted.

Zhang Chongguang stared at her.

For a moment, he placed his hand, lathered with soap, under the showerhead and rinsed it off slowly.

The white liquid foamed and flowed down the drain.

Then raising his eyes again, a hint of mockery flickered in his dark eyes: "Having enjoyed yourself, now you regret it"

He stepped forward, trapping her against the bathroom wall.

The bathroom behind felt warm from the hot water, not cold, but it was too stiff and uncomfortable... Hoxi looked up at him, still indifferent.

Zhang Chongguang took her hand gently and covered her eyes, saying, "I really can't stand seeing that look from you!"

Ho Xi finally spoke up: "Isn't it because you fed me that Otherwise, do you think I would have feelings for you Just thinking about you and Song Yun, it's enough to make me sick for a lifetime."

Zhang Chongguang laughed instead of getting angry: "Even if it's disgusting, didn't you hug me and call me affectionately Can anyone else give you this feeling No way!"

Hoseki sneered: "I think just about any man would have the same effect."

This angered him.

He was about to kiss her, pinching her chin. Hoxi wouldn't allow it.

She pushed him away hard, a sneer on her lips: "Zhang Chongguang, even now you don't think I'll get back together with you, do you"

He said so, he said that's how he thought.

He said, "We have so many beautiful memories together, of course we will be together. Song Yun no longer exists and she will never appear in our lives again. Huo Xi, I will find a way to cure Mian Mian's ears."

Huo Xi listened in a daze, she countered, "Ears can be healed but what about the heart Can the heart be healed Zhang Chongguang, tell me, can a dead heart be healed"

She said that and then turned her back on him, not wanting to speak to him anymore.

She quietly took a shower.

When she went out, Zhang Chongguang wrapped her body in a towel and wiped it clean. He then diligently helped her into a bathrobe: "If you're tired, don't go downstairs. I'll have the servant bring your meal up, and I'll go see Mianmian."

Hoxi didn't respond to him.

She pushed his hand away and fastened her yukata's sash herself.

Zhang Chongguang didn't mind her coldness much. He put on a set of pajamas and walked out by himself.

After he left, Huo Xi leaned against the sink, her legs feeling weak.

Tonight, Zhang Chongguang didn't take any precautions, and she has a high probability of being pregnant. What's more, he intentionally made her pregnant... She can't have his child.

……

Zhang Chongguang went downstairs first and told the servant to send food to Huo Xi, then he walked to the children's room on the second floor.

In a pale pink children's room, Mianmian was sleeping with soft sobs, lying on the cherry blossom pink princess bed.

The maid saw Zhang Chongguang come in and quickly got up from the bedside and expressed in English: "Sir, Miss is crying very sadly."

She said, with a touch of worry, “She’s been covering one ear the whole time.”

Zhang Chongguang's heart was pierced.

On the surface, he didn't show it, and faintly said: "You go out first!"

The servant quickly retreated, thoughtfully closing the bedroom door.

Zhang Chongguang sat down at the edge of the bed, reaching out to smooth the covers for Mianmian. He casually brushed her cheek... Because her face was warm, and her tiny white hand was indeed covering one ear.

Zhang Chongguang reached out and gently plucked it down.

However, Huo Mian woke up.

She opened her eyes and looked at her father dazedly. He looked so gentle... Just like before, but Mianmian knew it was different.

Once upon a time, Dad was also good to her and Zhang Rui, and he was good to Mom too. Back then, Mom was happy.

But now Mommy is unhappy.

Mianmian blinked her eyes gently, and she called out to her father in a soft, sweet voice. Then she whispered, "Daddy, could you please let Mommy go back She must want to see Zhang Rui, and she misses Grandma and Grandpa too... Mianmian will stay with you, please let Mommy go back"

Zhang Chongguang's heart ached when he heard this.

He didn't answer the question, instead gently touching her soft ears. "Does this hurt"

Mianmian shook her head. "It doesn't hurt! I just have nightmares."

Tears streamed down her face, "I dreamed that Mom hugged me. I dreamed that she begged that aunt to let me go. Mom said she was willing to stay... Dad, do you like that aunt, that's why you don't want Mom"

Zhang Chongguang looked at his little daughter.

The more he grows, the more he resembles Huo Xi, his eyebrows and eyes are strikingly similar.

He closed his eyes softly: “No! Daddy doesn't like that aunt. Daddy likes Mommy.”

Mianmian cried, "Then why are you with someone else"

Zhang Chongguang cannot answer.

……

He coaxed Mianmian to sleep before returning to the master bedroom.

In the living room, Hsi hadn't much appetite and ate only a little.

As the maid went upstairs to tidy, Huo Xi called her back. He placed a diamond watch in her hand and whispered, "Buy me a box of medicine, this is yours, I won't tell the master."on the 28 years' worth of meals she's eaten, Mr. Huo and Miss An definitely had a thing, you can tell just by looking at their eyes. Only this heiress is blind to it.The waiter was about to comfort hi...
