Chapter 543: Don’t Let Me Lose You a Third Time (2)
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
“The Huo Corporation’s stocks have plummeted in the past two days. I have to fly overseas to appease the foreign shareholders. Jiuxiao, don’t you have anything to tell me?” When Huo Qingxiao asked Huo Jiuxiao, he grabbed his arm and forced him to look at his lips to make sure that he understood his question.
“No, I haven’t.” Huo Jiuxiao answered directly.
Huo Qingxiao didn’t ask any more questions. He showed a rare smile as a parent and a father. “Then let’s get through this chaotic period first.”
However, everyone knew very well that there was still Huo Shengyuan, but Huo Jiuxiao didn’t want them to participate.
After breakfast, Lin Wanli packed some things and said to Huo Jiuxiao in her heart as she put them in her suitcase.
“I’ve also brought some toiletries and clothes for you. When you’re done, come over directly.”
Huo Jiuxiao was originally standing by the window. After listening to Lin Wanli’s heartfelt words, he turned around and leaned over to grab Lin Wanli’s right hand that was packing her things.
At this moment, Lin Wanli was crying quietly.
“Ah Li.”
“I know that you want to send me away because you haven’t used your trump card yet. When we all leave, the Huo Family will be empty. At that time, there won’t be any involvement or casualties. We’ve been husband and wife for several years. Huo Jiuxiao, I’m familiar with your every move and every metaphor in your words. Could you not treat me like a child?”
Huo Jiuxiao wiped away Lin Wanli’s tears, then pulled her into his arms and kissed her on the face.
“I’m not in danger, but I have no worries or concerns. Huo Shengyuan has a group of bodyguards. I want him to walk into a desperate situation.”
“I know, so I packed my suitcase obediently.” Lin Wanli buried her head in Huo Jiuxiao’s embrace and said, “Although I made it clear a few days ago that I don’t want to go abroad with you, you’re my greatest spiritual sustenance. I can’t live without you anymore.”
“I know. That’s why I want to end all this and return you a brand new Huo Jiuxiao. There was no hatred, no grudges. Although he was still deaf, he was no longer trapped in the past. I have to take revenge for what happened ten years ago and my mother’s death.”
“Yes.” Lin Wanli cried as she nodded. “Don’t let me lose you a third time.”
The first time was in her first life. Because of her weakness, the two of them had no interaction and died without a cause. In the end, she could not even protect their child well.
The second time, he had risked his life to protect them. It had been difficult for her to drag him back from hell and take good care of him until now.
The third time. Lin Wanli did not dare to think that there would be a third time.
Huo Jiuxiao stopped talking and kissed her directly. He used his actions to tell Lin Wanli that his feelings had always been like the wind.
In the afternoon, Lin Wanli and Huo Yu’an went to Deer Pavilion together. When they left, Lin Wanli looked at Huo Jiuxiao lovingly, which made Huo Yu’an very angry.
“Are you guys still going to put on an 18-way show in just a few days? Do you want to consider the feelings of a single dog?” Huo Yu’an grumbled, then closed the car door. “Brother, please come and get your wife back as soon as possible.”
Lin Wanli’s eyes were red. Huo Yu’an only realized it when the car was far away.
“Why do you think he sent us away?”
Huo Yu’an thought for a few seconds. Suddenly, she slapped her thigh. “Then, why don’t we go back?”
“There’s no need. What he doesn’t need at this time is a weakness. I’ll wait for him. I’m the best at waiting.”
“Why are you making me cry?” Huo Yu’an’s eyes were also red. “When the Huo family incident is over, I’ll find a good man too. The kind that can risk my life and have a good relationship without breaking up.”
Lin Wanli looked at Huo Jiuxiao’s figure from the rearview mirror. It was getting smaller and smaller until it finally disappeared around the corner.
At this moment, Huo Qingxiao and the butler walked out with a suitcase.
“My men have found traces of Huo Xinhong. Do you have nothing to say to me?” Huo Qingxiao asked Huo Jiuxiao again as if he was testing if Huo Jiuxiao was willing to tell him the truth.
“We have nothing to say. We have never reached the point of being a loving father and filial son. Nothing will change.”
If Huo Qingxiao hadn’t retaliated, Huo Jiuxiao wouldn’t be in so much pain today. Huo Jiuxiao had to let go of everything in the past, including all the grudges he had with Huo Qingxiao.
“Jiuxiao, are you..?” Huo Qingxiao opened his mouth to ask, but in the end, the question was on the tip of his tongue.
Huo Jiuxiao knew what he wanted to ask, but he didn’t answer.
“Don’t dirty your hands.” This was Huo Qingxiao’s last request.
Huo Qingxiao got into the car.
After Huo Zizhen and Xing Guan left, Huo Jiuxiao stepped back onto the steps. He then said to the butler, “Whatever Huo Shengyuan does next, no matter what he wants to do, let him go.”
The butler opened his mouth but did not say anything.
“Can I take your life?”
“Sure.” Huo Jiuxiao answered the housekeeper’s question and walked back to his room.
The butler was stunned. After a while, he realized what Huo Jiuxiao had said.
On the other side, at Subei Apartments. Huo Shengyuan was still under surveillance, but because it had been a few days since the incident, he had already sorted out all his emotions and made all his plans. He knew very well that he had no way out now. Even if he risked his life, he would at most keep his cheap life. Therefore, he wanted to fight with Huo Jiuxiao one last time. He only wanted to know if there was no chance of winning between him and Huo Jiuxiao.
Originally, he could have used his only connections to escape from the country, but now, he didn’t want to escape anymore. He didn’t even want to live anymore. He just wanted to return to the Huo family, stand in front of Huo Jiuxiao, and win him fair and square once.
