Xia Wan thought he would be silent forever.

"Huo ......"

"Didn't you eat much? Go take a shower first, and I'll make you something to eat. Touching her hair as usual, Huo Qing said lightly, looking like nothing had happened.

The words I wanted to say were suddenly blocked in my throat.

The eyes are facing each other.

Xia Wan's eyelashes trembled slightly, and he sighed silently in his heart.

"Okay, but I want to drink preserved egg and lean porridge, you can drink some too." The corners of her mouth raised a slight smile, and she replied casually.

"Soon enough." Huo Qing lowered his head and dropped a kiss on her forehead, and after speaking, he let go of her hand and turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

Xia Wan retracted his gaze and obediently went upstairs to take a bath.

About twenty minutes later, she changed her clothes and went downstairs again.

At a glance, she saw him in the kitchen.

Standing still, she looked at him for a long time, and finally walked over gently, hugged him from behind, and pressed her face against his back.

She keenly felt his body stiffen slightly, even if it wasn't noticeable, even if it was only for a few seconds.

"Huo Qingsui."

"Hmm."

Xia Wan tightened his hand, not wanting to beat around the bush, so he simply asked directly: "Who is in the box...... You already know who she is and you know that she came to Qingcheng, right? ”

"Hmm." Huo Qing moved slightly with the Adam's apple, his face was expressionless, and he looked like he didn't care, but the sudden tense jaw still revealed his emotions.

Xia Wan didn't know how to continue all of a sudden.

She thought that he would avoid it, and she also thought that he would disdain Ye Huan and hate, but the current situation was not very surprising, it just made her feel distressed.

"Then you ......"

The hand was suddenly held, and the man's body temperature came.

"Don't see her again." One word at a time, Huo Qing's entourage seemed to overflow from the depths of his throat.

Xia Wan was silent for two seconds.

"Do you think it's possible?" She pursed her lips and analyzed very calmly and objectively, "She is a free person, where she wants to go and who she wants to see, neither you nor me can stop her." I can promise you won't see her, but she'll find her own, just like tonight. That's true for me, but not for you? ”

Huo Qing's eyes darkened with color, and it was dark and difficult to distinguish!

An uncontrollable urge and anger welled up from the bottom of his heart, affecting his calmness and restraint, and he almost blurted out: "What did she tell you?" ”

Sensing that his body was getting tighter and tighter, Xia Wan was even more distressed, and reached out, and she held his hand instead.

She knew very well that this topic could not be avoided, even if Huo Qingsui didn't want to talk about it.

"Do you know the Lawrence family in Paris?" She asked.

Lawrence Family ......

Coldness and sneer immediately appeared in Huo Qingsui's eyes.

Xia Wan understood.

Closing her eyes, she briefly told Ye Huan what she had said: "She is from the Lawrence family, and so are you." This time, she should have come in the hope that you would return to the Lawrence family. ”

The air seemed to freeze for a few seconds.

"Ignore it." Every word, spit out of Huo Qingsui's mouth, was extremely indifferent, as if he was wrapped in a deep chill, and what was buried the deepest was hatred.

The summer evening naturally feels clear.

"So I refused." Cheek back on his back, Xia Wan said softly, "You are Huo Qingsui, that's all." ”

Some words tossed and turned in her throat a thousand times, and in the end, she chose to say it.

"Remember? At that time, I had a bad relationship with Xia Zhengtao, I hated him, and said that there was no father like him, but you saw through me at a glance and knew that I actually cared very much in my heart, it was you who had been by my side, slowly guiding me, and untying the knot between our father and daughter. ”

Holding his hand tightly, subconsciously not giving him the possibility of avoidance, Xia Wan continued: "Now, the same problem is in front of us, Huo Qingsui, you ......"

"It's different, this matter, don't care, be obedient."

The blunt and indifferent words forcibly blocked the words that Xia Wan had time to say in the future.

She opened her mouth, unable to speak for a moment.

The atmosphere seems to have changed.

No one spoke again, Xia Wan just hugged him from behind and didn't move for a long time.

It didn't take long for the porridge with preserved eggs and lean pork to boil.

Huo Qing took two bowls to the restaurant.

The two of them still sat down together and drank porridge together as they used to do every day.

The atmosphere seems to have changed back to warmth.

But the summer evening is clear, just as if.

Just as he knew her, she knew him all the better.

His silence, his rejection, his reluctance to reveal the hatred that actually exists, and even the small details that were suddenly magnified at this moment in the past, all show that he is not as indifferent as he appears.

He cares.

Because I care about being abandoned, I hate.

The knot in his heart is deeper than he imagined, which is the side he is most reluctant to show, including her, and he also excludes it.

No one can walk in.

Xia Wan didn't mind his avoidance, she just felt sorry for him.

After drinking the porridge, the two went out for a walk without moving, and when they came back, they went into the study together and were busy with their own work.

It's just that Xia Wan inadvertently saw him want to smoke a few times, but in the end he held back.

In the middle of the night, when she was asleep, a faint smell of smoke entered her nose.

Xia Wan was a lot more sober at that time, and sighed silently in her heart, she pretended to turn over, got into the man's arms, and hugged him firmly.

On this night, some people were happy and some were sad.

Following.

The summer evening was the set that Huo Qingsui personally sent.

When the car stopped, she subconsciously lowered her head to unbuckle her seat belt, and the man's hand was already one step ahead of her.

"I have a meeting today, I don't think I have time to come to see you, tell me what you want to eat, I'll have someone send it, and I'll pick you up and go home with you in the evening."

A soft, deep voice, followed by a kiss.

Xia Wan smiled softly, took the initiative to wrap his neck around his lips and kissed him heavily: "I know, drive slowly on the way to the company, and send me WeChat when it's time." ”

"Hmm."

The two of them struggled for a while, and then got out of the car and walked to the set in the summer evening.

She walked slower than usual.

It wasn't until she heard the sound of the car's engine gradually becoming quieter that she turned around and stood still, and the smile on the corner of her mouth relaxed when she saw the car disappear from sight.

She sighed.

Huo Qing Sui......

How can I help you untie this knot?

On the road.

The car was driving smoothly, and in front of it, there was a fork in the road.

To the left, the city center, and to the right, the suburbs.

Holding the steering wheel with both hands, Huo Qing looked ahead with an expressionless face, and finally changed his path and drove to the right at the last second.

After more than half an hour of galloping, the car arrived at the cemetery.

"Aunt Wan," a bouquet of flowers was put down, and he took out a small clean towel and gently wiped the tombstone, "I've come to see you." ”

When the words fell, he didn't say a word again, just wiped it very carefully until he couldn't see a little dust.

The movement stopped slightly, and Huo Qingsui still maintained a half-squatting posture and did not get up.

Long.

"She's back." He didn't have any expression, and spit out a few words lightly, as if he was saying something that was just normal, "I'm sorry for you and Ji An, she's sorry for you." ”

A gust of wind blew, and the people in the photo were still smiling, just like in the past ten years, every time I looked at him and Ji An, it was the same, even if he and Ji An came back from time to time.

Some memories were evoked, and Huo Qingsui's eyes softened a little.

But this softness only existed for less than half a minute.

Because, the woman is coming.

His expression became cold inch by inch, and he stood up.

Two steps away, Ye Huan stood cramped and restless.

From her point of view, she could clearly see his side face, no longer an untouchable presence in the photo, but real, right in front of her.

Her heart suddenly became sour, tormenting her pain and guilt.

"Clear ......"

"Leave."

The two words of extreme indifference, like a big hand, tore her heart apart.

Bloody.

Ye Huan's breath was suddenly stagnant, even if she had been prepared, even if she had done a good job of psychological construction, but when she really faced this embarrassment, she still couldn't bear it.

She knew she deserved it, but in the end, she would also have heartache.

"Qingsui, I'm sorry......" It was extremely difficult, and she used all her strength to squeeze out the words from the depths of her throat, "I know ......"

I'm sorry?

A long sneer overflowed in his heart, and a hand that fell on his side was quietly clenched into a fist, the back of his hand was full of green tendons, Huo Qing opened his mouth, and the chill infected every word: "The person you are sorry for is Aunt Wan." ”

Ye Huan's heart trembled violently, as if her throat was choked, and at this moment, she almost suffocated.

She closed her eyes.

A strand of hair was blown up, but it was like a sharp knife, cutting into her skin.

"Wan Ting," after a few seconds, she opened her voice in a hoarse voice, with an uncontrollable tremor, "I ...... It's Ye Huan, I'm back to see you, I'm sorry, I'm ......"

Shadows fall overhead.

Ye Huan opened his eyes suddenly, but he didn't dare to look him in the eyes.

"Clear ......"

Huo Qingsui sneered: "A word of sorry, is it enough?" ”

"I ......"

Huo Qing took a step back, he looked at Aunt Huan, and said in a cold voice: "Ji An died because of me, and Aunt Wan's death was largely due to me, and the culprit of all this is you, Mr. Ye." ”

The last two words are full of ridicule.

"I ......"

Speaking again, Huo Qingsui's voice became even colder: "Because of your selfishness!" ”

Ye Huan...... His face turned pale at all!

Every word pierced her heart deeply.

She couldn't breathe.

Looking away, she didn't, didn't dare, and didn't have the courage to look at him again.

"It's me who I'm sorry for you, I'm sorry for Huanting," when she spoke again, her voice couldn't be described as hoarse and obscure, "I don't deny my selfishness, except for giving birth to you, I didn't fulfill my responsibility as a mother for a day, and I ...... you pushed it to Wan Ting and ignored it. So, no matter how much you hate me, it's as it should be, and I'm not going to argue a word for myself. ”

Even if she tried her best to control it, her voice still trembled a little: "But this time, I ......"

"Get out."

The words came to an abrupt end.
