Chapter 271 He Held On, The Child's First Flutters!
nd in a bad mood. He just wanted to have a cigarette, took one out and put it in his mouth, but the rain got it wet and he couldn't light it.He simply crumpled it up and tossed it in the trash.Ten min...In the evening, dusk descended.
A black RV slowly drove into the villa. The car stopped, and the driver opened the door for Wen Man.
The servant came over and whispered, "Master is in the study!"
Wen Man nodded and slowly walked into the villa upstairs, gently pushing open the door to the study....
Ho Shaoting sat behind his desk, the dim light casting a deep shadow on his profile, handsome and striking. On the computer in front of him was a video playing - Wen Man's press conference.
That afternoon, he didn't know how many times he had watched it.
And beside me, there lay that very journal!
Wen Man walked in, he looked up at her, she was still wearing that white suit, neat and elegant.
Ho Shao-ting extended his hand toward her.
Wen Man walked closer and gently leaned against him, saying nothing but simply leaning softly.
Ho Shaoting pulled her hair tie out, taking off her high heels.
He burrowed into her hair, asking in a low, raspy voice, “Tired”
Wen Man's nose soured at the sound.
She shook her head softly in his arms, staying like that for a long, long time. Finally, she whispered, "Shaoting, go to the sanatorium!"
Ho Shaoting stiffened slightly.
Wen Man kissed his neck softly, whispering, "You'll be more at ease there. You won't have to force yourself to remember me, or Huo Xi, all the time. You won't hurt so much! ... Shaoting, when you think of us, call us and Huo Xi will come see you!"
Her voice was broken.
Because she knew, the time he could remember her was very, very little!
He Shao-ting closed his eyes in pain.
Wen Man choked back tears: " Huo Shaoting, while I haven't changed my mind..."
She suddenly stood up and pushed him against the back of the chair, then she ripped his belt off...
Ho Shao-ting's voice was hoarse: "Wen Man!"
Wen Man kissed him.
She knows what he likes best.
Things she once wouldn't do, she now craves to do for him. She wants him to remember this feeling, she wants her mark on his body, she wants him to even if he forgets her, never forget the burning sensation of this moment...
When love reaches its deepest point, it becomes profound and passionate.
Huo Shaoting's fingers tightened on the armrest, he lowered his head, his eyes somewhat moist as he gazed at the woman in his arms, and he couldn't help but pull her closer for a kiss: "Enough, Wen Man... Enough..."
Her voice trembled, "Ho Shaoting, you are mine, all of you!"
……
Ho Shaoting moved into that high-end nursing home.
He took the diary that day.
Originally, the doctor gave him a wristband, a tracker.
But Wen Man plucked it off, just like removing his restraint! Because Huo Shao Ting wouldn't get lost, the worst that could happen was he forgot to return to their home.
Occasionally, he would also think of her.
Maybe a week, maybe ten days, or perhaps half a month...
He would call her and shower her with sweet nothings, eager to see her.
Wen Man always takes Huo Xi with her, no matter how busy she is!
Xiao Hoxi is very well-behaved. She seems to understand what it means when her father goes on a business trip! She never cries or makes a fuss, and she cheers him up whenever he remembers her!
Every time, she brought a fairytale book with her.
She would sit in her daddy's arms, acting cute and making him read to her!
When Huo Shaoting reached the fourth book, he could barely remember them anymore. He persevered until Wen Man felt her child's first flutter in her womb. That powerful movement made him feel both magical and devout. It was a little life they had created together, and now he truly began to move.
Ho Shao-ting craved this feeling.
He lay in Wen Man's embrace, listening to the gentle beating.
Later, he fell asleep...
Wen Man covered her lips, crying uncontrollably. She knew Huo Shaoting had been relying on that diary to get through this...
Heading home late.
Wen Man thought about their next meeting, a smile playing on her lips.
The maid stepped forward: "Madam, there's a package for you!"
Wen Man took it over, glanced at it casually, and then was stunned.
The sender is Ho Shaoting!
She quickly tore it open, and inside were three voice recorders, each with a label.
Wen Man went upstairs and opened the recorder that belonged to her. A rustling sound passed, followed by Huo Shaoting's low and hoarse voice.
Wen Man, when you hear this! I might already be gone. You must be crying, right Silly girl, don't cry! At least we are still legally married, at least we have two children! The one in your belly is a boy, let's call him Yun Si, Huo Yun Si! ...Wen Man, promise me, to look for me, no matter what, don't give up! Because I love you, I can't bear to live the rest of my life without you! My past self, even if I lived recklessly and freely, those... are nothing compared to what I feel here with you!
Wen Man, I like you!
Wen Man, please be brave for me again, okay
……
Wen Man sat in the living room, stroking her slightly protruding belly, listening gently.
Hearing this, I was brought to tears!
She had a feeling that Huo Shaoting had really left!
At this moment, the phone on the sofa rang. It was the sanatorium calling!
Wen Man gently picked it up…
The doctor, from the hospital, told her with a voice that was both light and regretful: "Mrs. Huo, Mr. Huo is gone! He took all his documents and bank cards, along with two sets of clothes."
Wen Man's body felt drained, she trembled her lips: "Is there any more"
He thought for a moment and then said, "Mr. Huo keeps a diary on his bedside table. Do you need to see it"
"I want it! I'm coming to get it right away!"
Wen Man hung up the phone, mechanically wiping away her tears, but new tears fell.
She went downstairs and told the driver to leave.
Downstairs, stood Huo Zhendong. His expression was a mixture of anxiety and heartache.
He gazed at Wen Man and whispered, "The other day he retook the bar exam! I found out he got a passport and bought a ticket to the United States. He should be on the plane now."
Wen Man silently shed tears.
Even knowing this day would come, she couldn't help but cry.
...completely forgot....
His memory flashed back five years, to a time before they had met.
Ho Shaoting left, flying towards the sky he yearned for, returning to his beloved legal career.
But, she's still here.
But, Hoshi is still here.
Will he treat them as strangers when they meet again, without love or hate!
Wen Man closed her eyes gently and let out a heart-wrenching cry!
Ho Zhen Dong's eyes welled up with tears.
He gently patted Wen Man's shoulder and whispered, "Wen Man, don't cry for too long, or Shaoting will be heartbroken! Don't be afraid, he's fine... he'll come back eventually!"
Wen Man was still trembling.
Even though she had mentally prepared herself for months, the day arrived and she was heartbroken!
……
Wen Man went to the temple.
She wants to meet Master Qing Shui.
The temple was on the hillside, she devoutly climbed up, carrying her four months pregnant belly.
Upon arriving at the temple, she knelt before Buddha and offered incense.
But Master Qing Shui did not see her.
A very pretty young apprentice came out, taking over from Master Qing Shui to speak with her: “Master told you before, that only by keeping the clouds away will you see the moon shining bright.”
After the little master finished speaking, he bowed and left.
Wen Man hung her head and sent him off. She paid respects to all the deities in the temple before slowly making her way down the mountain.
Later, Huo Zhendong would tell her the news every day, and within a week, Huo Shaoting flew to several countries... Wen Man looked at his footprints and occasionally fell into a daze.
Another half month passed, and on the TV news, she saw Huo Shaoting.
He won a cross-border lawsuit.
Outside the highest court of the state, Huo Shaoting was surrounded by countless reporters.
He donned a classic black and white suit, his chin slightly raised during the interview, exuding confidence and charm, with a captivating air of sophistication.
Wen Man had looked at that passage countless times!
She was crying, laughing and crying again...it made her look even tinier.She looks like she's in her 20s, you wouldn't guess she'd had a child.He sat down beside him peacefully.Huo Yunsi couldn't help but touch her little head: "If you do this,...
