Chapter 111: Life is Short
Ah Zhi likes Huo Wenyu very much, his mother has been talking about his father in his ear since he was a child, in the past two years, he has seen Huo Wenyu very rarely, but every time he meets, the scene is deeply imprinted in his mind.
He has a vague idea of the relationship between his mother and his father, knowing that his father doesn't like his mother, and every time his mother wants his father to come to the house, he makes himself pretend to be sick.
He was still very young, looking at his father, who he hadn't seen for almost half a year, and he just wanted to throw himself into his arms at the moment, but now, looking at his father's defensive and unhappy look, he was scared.
Did he and his mother suddenly arrive and make him angry?
As my father said just now, I didn't seem to be expected to be born by him, so... Does he really dislike himself?
Huo Wenyu lowered his eyes, looked at the child's worried eyes, and did not say the words of affirmation.
"Take the child away, I can only promise that you will not be the same as your parents."
Shen Ruoyin accompanied Dun Dun quietly in the living room, but her ears were always paying attention to the movement at the door, and after hearing this, a trace of ridicule appeared in her eyes.
Sure enough, until now, Huo Wenyu still can't let go of the past kindness.
It's just that... Huo Wenyu still doesn't know Xu Zhiyin in the end, and now that she is being cornered, how can she be relieved because of his promise?
"Dun Dun, you're going to live here with him for the next few days, okay?"
"Mommy, what about you?"
Dun Dun was smart enough to stop fiddling with the blocks.
"Mommy has something to do, I'll pick you up in a few days, okay?"
Shen Ruoyin squinted and explained with a smile, if she didn't give Xu Zhiyin a chance, how could she show her true face in a short period of time and let people find the handle?
Risking your life is the best and fastest solution.
"Mommy, it's a deal!"
Dun Dun didn't ask, he looked at the back of the man standing in the doorway, and nodded vigorously, he was also looking forward to spending time with his father.
In the end, Xu Zhiyin was dragged away by the bodyguards, and was sent back with Ah Zhi.
As Shen Ruoyin thought, Xu Zhiyin's movements were fast.
The next day, after refusing to go with Huo Wenyu, Shen Ruoyin deliberately went to the mall, and then turned into a few people-free intersections. In front of her, she knew that she had succeeded.
Xu Zhiyin couldn't wait, and took advantage of the only remaining opportunity to kidnap the most valuable person.
"Shen Ruoyin, I didn't expect that after three years, you still haven't grown at all!"
She slapped Shen Ruoyin's face hard, her eyes full of madness and malice, "You are destined to be trampled under my feet, and what I can't get, you can't even think of it!" β
Shen Ruoyin was tied to a chair, the surrounding environment was dim, and he could vaguely see some light coming through the crack in the door not far in front, and the air was filled with a fishy smell.
Port?
She quickly remembered the information she heard after being kidnapped three years ago, when Xu Zhiyin was ready to use the port to transport herself out, and it seems that until now, she has not given up.
"Xu Zhiyin, why do you bother?"
Shen Ruoyin was not nervous at all, but looked at her pitifully, "For the sake of a man, ruined yourself like this?" Could it be that without Huo Wenyu, you can't live? β
At the beginning, the Xu family, just relying on Huo Wenyu's life-saving grace, was enough to develop steadily in Tianjin City, the so-called only eldest lady of the Xu family, why did she practice herself like this?
"You know what!"
Huo Wenyu has been her dream since she was a child, and it has long been her obsession for so many years.
When she realized something was wrong, there was no turning back.
"Huo Wenyu should be mine!"
She raised her hand viciously and pinched Shen Ruoyin's neck hard, "In order to make him accept me and identify me, I will from..."
She paused, glanced at Shen Ruoyin, looked at her struggling to breathe, and sneered, "Don't think that now that you have entered the Ouyang family, with Huo Wenyu protecting you, you think you can replace me!" β
"Shen Ruoyin, if you are a lowly person for a day, you will always be an ant trampled on the soles of your feet by me!"
"Xu's is down, but it doesn't mean that it will fall!"
"Do you know why Huo Wenyu is still protecting me until now?"
Shen Ruoyin glared at her fiercely, "Just because you saved him when you were a child!" β
"Hahaha..."
Xu Zhiyin laughed, with desolation in her laughter, "He still remembers." β
"It's a pity..."
"I've wanted to marry him since I was a kid."
Looking at Shen Ruoyin's eyes gradually widening in disbelief, she laughed louder and louder: "You know, I am like this, unscrupulous means to achieve the goal, I dared to set fire to Huo Wenyu to accept me at the beginning, and now in order to make you disappear from now on, I can also erase you from this world!" β
"Bang!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was suddenly kicked open.
Several tall figures rushed in.
Xu Zhiyin's reaction was faster, and she quickly pinched Shen Ruoyin's neck and stood behind her, looking at the door vigilantly.
It wasn't until he saw Huo Wenyu walk in with a gloomy face that a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.
"Xu Zhiyin."
He never imagined that the kindness he had always remembered would be a conspiracy.
Xu Zhiyin glared at Shen Ruoyin fiercely, "It's you, you did it on purpose!" β
She reacted to why she would kidnap people so easily!
Then he quickly looked at Huo Wenyu and explained: "Ah Yu, no, what I just said was to anger her, not true!" β
"You have to trust me!"
"It's this woman, this woman, she deliberately calculated me in order to drive me out of your side!"
"Counting you?" Huo Wenyu wanted to laugh, "Let's see, who is threatening whom now?" β
He glared at Xu Zhiyin fiercely, his eyes were on the dagger held by the woman, and he was afraid that the other party would accidentally hurt Shen Ruoyin.
"I..."
Xu Zhiyin was stunned for a moment, and the hand holding Shen Ruoyin followed, Shen Ruoyin broke free with all her strength, and the surrounding bodyguards quickly rushed up and suppressed Xu Zhiyin.
A farce ended quickly.
Shen Ruoyin looked at the man sitting beside him with a chill all over his body, and his eyelids jumped slightly.
"You're still reluctant to do anything to her?"
Huo Wenyu turned his head, his eyes were complicated, "That's how you think of me?" β
He took a deep breath, as if he had endured it for a long time, "You were deliberately taken away by her, you never thought about it, if something happened, if we didn't arrive in time, what would happen to you?" β
"I..."
"You don't know!"
Huo Wenyu held her hand hard, and his eyes were already red at some point, "Yinyin, I can't stand the feeling of you leaving me again!" β
"Can you... Can you talk to me once before making any decisions in the future and consider how I and my child feel? β
Shen Ruoyin's heart trembled suddenly, turned her head, and looked out the window.
She was worried that she would relent, and she would really agree.
"Yinyin?"
Huo Wenyu didn't hear her answer, and leaned closer without giving up, "I still want to tell you something." β
He took out a piece of paper from his coat pocket, "This is what my uncle handed to me, I wanted to show it to you as soon as possible, but..."
Shen Ruoyin turned his head and looked at the paper in his hand, and when he saw the paternity test: non-relative, his pupils shrank.
"This is..."
"Me and Ah Zhi's."
Huo Wenyu explained, "It's Xu Zhiyin's child." β
"Three years ago, she came to me out of the blue, and when I woke up with a glass of spices..."
"I have never doubted this, it seems that Xu Zhiyin still has a lot of things to hide from me."
His voice was cold and hard, and anyone who had been a father for almost three years in vain would be angry.
Xu Zhiyin was sent to the police station, she was stubborn at first, and wanted Huo Wenyu to save her, but later, in the disappointment day after day, she completely lost hope, and finally saw Huo Sheng being reported for illegal business in the news, and Huo Wenyu walked into the company quickly after hugging Shen Ruoyin, who was tightly covered, and went completely crazy.
She is still fantasizing that she is the eldest lady of the Xu family and Huo Wenyu's fiancΓ©e.
ββ
Huo Wenyu drove Shen Ruoyin and Dun Dun to the beach, watching the sunset dye the entire sea surface a dazzling golden yellow, he finally mustered up the courage and took Xiao Xiang's hand for a long time.
"Yinyin, will you start over with me?"
Shen Ruoyin didn't answer immediately, her eyes followed Dun Dun who was playing on the beach, her whole face was softly reflected by the sunset, and the whole person seemed to be coated with a layer of light, illusory and ethereal.
Huo Wenyu's heart tightened, and he had a sense of panic that a woman might leave him at any time, and he held her hand unconsciously hard.
"Life is short, and I don't want to delay it any longer."
Shen Ruoyin turned her head and smiled at Huo Wenyu's nervous and expectant eyes, "I hope this time, you won't let me down." β
