My Wife Longs for Divorce Every Day-Chapter 392 - : 392, Burning Bridges

Chapter 392: 392, Burning Bridges

Upon seeing Huo Jingshen, he immediately jumped off the sofa, holding his lollipop and walked over, “Uncle Huo.”

Huo Jingshen frowned, “Ziyang, didn’t I tell you yesterday not to linger at the school gate.”

Though, Fu Ziyang asked, “Uncle Huo, is she really my mother?”

“No.”

Fu Ziyang was taken aback, he dropped his lollipop on the ground out of disappointment.

“Your mother is not in the country, so stop blatantly searching and guessing.” Huo Jingshen said.

“Then where is my mom?” Fu Ziyang asked.

“She will come to find you after a while.”

“Uncle Huo, you’re not lying to me, are you? Why do you always say that? Why can’t she come and find me earlier?”

Listening to this soft little voice, Nangong Ci’s heart almost broke.

Yet, Huo Jingshen remained unmoved, “When did I ever lie to you?”

“But you haven’t told me the truth.” Fu Ziyang confidently replied.

Huo Jingshen then looked straight at Nangong Ci, “Lead the way.”

Nangong Ci picked himself up, “Okay.”

Fu Ziyang: “…”

As they walked down the corridor, Nangong Ci started talking, “This Lu Zixi seems pretty popular right now, my dad was even watching her TV show a few days ago, complimented her as youthful and adorable… She kept telling me she was innocent, and if it weren’t for her being my dad’s favourite, I would have taken her to the police station on accounts of kidnapping. How dare she deceive my nephew! It’s outrageous! But, boss, is she really my nephew’s biological mother? They do seem to have some resemblance…”

“Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t.” Huo Jingshen irked, he knocked on his head with a folder.

Nangong Ci grinned, “Brother, I’m the vice dean. Can you give me some respect?”

He can’t believe Huo knocked his head!

Luckily, there are no subordinates around to see it…

Huo Jingshen didn’t reply and just walked ahead.

When they reached the door, his long fingers rested on the door handle, and he looked back at Nangong Ci.

Nangong Ci had a puzzled look on his face.

What’s with him now?

“Arrange someone to take Ziyang to school.” Huo Jingshen ordered.

“Alright.”

“You can leave.”

“…Oh.”

As soon as Huo Jingshen opened and closed the door, Nangong Ci punched the air out of frustration.

Such audacity!

Burning the bridge after crossing it, tossing him aside once done with him!

**

Huo Jingshen stepped into the office suite.

Zan Song was tied to a chair, his limbs bound but not too tight.

He had taken a punch to the face from a security guard during his earlier struggle, which resulted in a scrape on his mouth.

Although Lu Zixi was uninjured and not bound, her condition wasn’t great, her clothes were dishevelled, her face haggard, and her hair messy, completely devoid of her usual glamour and beauty.

Upon seeing Huo Jingshen, Zan Song immediately shouted angrily, “Who are you? Who gives you the right to lock us in here? Do you know this is illegal? Do you know who I am? Let us go immediately!”

Compared with Zan Song’s agitation, Huo Jingshen was calm, “Continue screaming, I don’t mind inviting the reporters downstairs to come up.”

Lu Zixi hastily went over to the window.

As she looked at the mass of reporters thronging the square below, all equipped with microphones and cameras…

Frightened, she quickly turned around, fearing that someone would capture her face.

“Just who are you?” Zan Song couldn’t help but ask.

How had he never seen this man with such a powerful aura and outstanding looks in public before?

Otherwise, he would have surely recognized him!

“Don’t you recognize me?” Huo Jingshen raised his eyebrows.

Zan Song: “…”

He then began examining the man in front of him.

He seemed to be around thirty years old.

He was dressed in a black coat which was casually opened to reveal a dark woolen sweater with a snippet of a crisp white shirt peeking out from the collar. It was very neat, completely spotless.

He was tall, with sculptured handsome features and a pair of deep black eyes. His long, beautiful fingers held a folder.

With his every gesture, he exuded an elegant and unassumingly dazzling aura.

Considering his age and his aura, within the major families of Nancheng…

“lam Huo Jingshen.”

At his words, Zan Song immediately froze. His speculation was confirmed instantly.

Lu Zixi also remembered by then. He was the man who picked up Fu Ziyang and left the cinema that day.

However, since he arrived late, only Su Wanwan and Fu Ziyang were in the photo taken that day. Unexpectedly…

She immediately asked, “What’s your relationship with Miss Su? And what’s your relationship with Ziyang?”

“You don’t need to know my relationship with Ziyang but what can be confirmed is that you have no relationship with Ziyang.” Huo Jingshen’s tone was flat but carried an undeniable meaning.

He then placed the folder he was holding on the table. “As for this file, it’s closely related to Miss Lu. Miss Lu, care to take a look?”

Lu Zixi looked at the file, her eyes fixed on it, her body slightly trembling.

Somehow, she didn’t dare to reach out and pick it up.

Zan Song quickly said, “Zixi, don’t be afraid. I believe President Huo isn’t that unreasonable.”

Huo Jingshen’s eyebrow slightly twitched.

As for Lu Zixi, she clenched her fingers and finally picked up the file on the table.

However, just after seeing the first page…

With a “clanging” sound, the file fell back onto the table.

She stood there, her body trembled with incredulous frequency. The expression on her face was as if she had seen something terrifying, appearing both frightened and afraid.

“Miss Lu, not going to read the rest?” Huo Jingshen’s eyes glanced at the file on the table.

Seeing that Lu Zixi seemed truly too afraid to continue reading, he started to speak, “The fact that you had a surrogate child for a rich businessman at the age of sixteen was only coincidentally found out by a private investigator. He wanted to earn some credit, so he sent me all this information. However, I’m not interested in these things.”

Lu Zixi bit her lip, filled with shame and panic, she didn’t dare to speak.

She never expected that this file would so thoroughly dig up her past!

These old events had always been well hidden by her, even yesterday, she only shared some of it with Su Wenwen.

Because she knew, after navigating the entertainment circle for eleven years, she had already seen the cold-heartedness of people. She finally had her current career which everyone else was eyeing, she couldn’t afford a single mistake!

She also knew, the moment these things would be exposed, she would be subjected to a destructive blow instantly, not only on her career, but even her future real life might be affected…

Huo Jingshen’s thin lips lightly parted, and his voice sounded again, “However, these documents can definitely prove that your child died indeed in that fire that year, this is also the main reason why I came to see you. Miss Lu, you just need to remember this point, and never look for Ziyang again, or else these documents may end up in the hands of the reporters downstairs.”

After saying that, he turned and left.

On the other hand, Nangong Ci ordered someone to take Fu Ziyang back to school and sat in his office waiting for somebody to return.

“Tap tap tap.”

Finally, the door was knocked.

Nangong Ci hurriedly got up from his seat, “Big brother, come in, why are you knocking…”

The door opened and it was a nurse.

Wearing an extremely short pink nurse uniform, carrying a cup of coffee in her hand, she had a shy smile and a melodic voice, “Deputy Dean, your coffee.”

Her voice was sweet and she looked beautiful, which indeed cheered people up on this drizzle morning.

When she put down the coffee, she intentionally bent over.

Nangong Ci coughed twice.

Since there was no one else in the office, he joked, “Qi Qi, you didn’t put any medicine in my coffee, did you?”

“Deputy Dean, what are you talking about?” Qi Qi puckered her mouth, her face immediately flushed.

“Imean,” Nangong Ci’s smile became even deeper, “you didn’tput any medicine in my coffee that would make me uncomfortable unless I was with a woman?”

“Deputy Dean!” Qi Qi stomped her foot, her face reddening, “You’re so annoying!”

Did she look like the type of woman who would do anything to get what she wanted?

Seeing Nangong Ci’s smile getting even worse, she clenched her fist, and was about to punch him, but then… “Xiaosan.”

“Cough cough!” All the coffee Nangong Ci had just taken a sip of was scared out of his mouth.

Shortly after, they heard Qi Qi shrieking, “Aaaaah…”

Because his coffee was all over Qi Qi’s body.

Nangong Ci hurriedly put down the coffee, pulling out a tissue to wipe her, but then immediately retracted as if he had been burned. He rambled to explain, “Big brother, you must not misunderstand, we haven’t done anything.”

Huo Jingshen stood at the door, his black coat emitting a cold glow. His handsome face was full of aloofness and disgust, “I’m leaving.”

“Big brother, let me accompany you.”

Nangong Ci quickly followed, at the same time glaring at Qi Qi, “Don’t wear such a short nurse uniform again, change it!”

Qi Qi just looked confused.

Wasn’t this super short nurse uniform designed by you, Deputy Dean?

Huo Jingshen glanced at the time, left the hospital, and drove directly to Nancheng University.

After parking, he sent a WeChat message to his little girl.

[Baby, come out, have lunch with your husband.]

He thought his girl would push him away and give all kinds of excuses, dragging it out for half a day. But unexpectedly…

[Okay.]

Sending a lively dancing emoticon along with the message.

Huo Jingshen raised his eyebrows.

That seemed somewhat unexpected. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

But he still opened the storage compartment and pulled out a red jewelry box.

When the lid was opened, a diamond lady’s ring sparkled under the sun, looking extremely beautiful.

Huo Jingshen just looked at the ring until he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure from the corner of his eye. He put the jewelry box in his pocket and unlocked the car door.

However, when Su Wanwan came to the car door, he found… it wasn’t just her.

Mo Weiyi, carrying a fluffy pink bunny school bag, wearing a black fur coat, a dark floral skirt, and long boots, her honey blonde curls draped over her shoulders, her outfit… just like a Christmas tree.

Huo Jingshen’s face darkened, he was absolutely disgusted at heart.

Realizing that after getting in the car, Su Wanwan was actually sitting in the back seat with Mo Weiyi…

Huo Jingshen’s handsome face darkened even more, looking like a storm brewing. His mood was almost as gloomy as the weather outside.

Mo Weiyi closed her little pink umbrella and greeted sweetly, “Mr. Huo, where are we going for lunch?”

Huo Jingshen didn’t answer.

“Mr. Huo?” Mo Weiyi tilted her head in confusion, then looked at Su Wanwan with questioning eyes.

So Su Wanwan had to speak up, “Husband, where are we going?”

This calling of “husband” finally eased Huo Jingshen’s expression a bit. He drove the car out, then casually stated, “Xiaoye Garden.”

Su Wanwan realized that her husband really played hardball with his friends!

Normally when he took her out for a meal, they basically went to that place, even last time when they invited classmates to dinner.

Although the taste was good and the environment was comfy, but… it was free every time! It was as if they were eating without paying!

Soon after they reached Xiaoye Garden, a manager greeted them.

Since they had accompanied Su Wanwan several times, he was quite familiar with her, directly addressing her as “Mrs. Huo.”

When he saw Mo Weiyi, his eyes lit up even more, “It turns out to be Miss Mo, sorry to have kept you waiting, right this way please.”

Mo Weiyi gave a slight smile.

Without a doubt, Nancheng was her territory!

She was so famous, everyone recognized her no matter where she went!

After they entered the private room, a server came in to take their order.

Under Huo Jingshen’s hint, she put the menu in front of Mo Weiyi.

Mo Weiyi picked up the menu, casually flipping through it, her eyebrows shot up in surprise, “Isn’t it a bit expensive?”

An ordinary stir-fried vegetable dish was actually 388 yuan?

This…!

Although she didn’t understand much about the price of household items, but this price was unreasonable, right?

The server smiled, “Miss Mo, today’s meal is on the house.”

Then Mo Weiyi gave out a graceful sigh, “Although this is indeed the first time I have visited your restaurant, you don’t have to be so polite. After all, Mr. Huo is treating us today, you’re making me kind of embarrassed.”
