Missing you can be a lonely tear in a silent night.
Xia Zhitong's moist eyes did not contain a single tear.
Because the longing that cannot be determined is more painful and torturous than the loss of all thoughts...
After Xia Zhitong was brought back to the Huo family by Huo Wenxuan, she almost returned to this birdcage again.
She knew that Huo Wenxuan was out of protection for her. Coupled with the incident where she almost died of hypoxia in the secret room last time, her physical condition was very poor and she was losing weight day by day.
When she faced Huo Wenxuan, her beautiful spring-like water eyes were like a pool of dead lake water. She said nothing because she did not dare to ask Huo Wenxuan about what happened after that day.
How is Huo Chengxi?
What happened to the Xia family's inheritance?
Finally, it was Huo Wenxuan who couldn't help but say, "Xiaotong, I think you are not in a good mood these days. Why don't I go out with you for a walk?"
Xia Zhitong shook his head and looked at his gentle smile and his amber eyes, so bright and full of hope for love. He was so kind to her, even though he didn't say it, he still hoped to be reciprocated.
"No, I think your aunt may not want to see me during this period. She couldn't get the Xia family's property, but she announced the plan for the Financial City in advance and threatened to acquire our Xia family's large area in Area C.
Land. Who knows..."
Xia Zhitong did not continue because everyone knew the rest of the story.
Lin Meijing must have given the fake will and the fake share transfer document to Huo Wanyi. After appraisal by a professional lawyer, they determined that the will was fake, so the subsequent share transfer document was also fake.
No one has obtained the real will. Therefore, the Xia family's inheritance is still solid and is managed by his father's extremely capable assistant during his lifetime. The so-called bankruptcy incident eventually became a farce.
In this battle, neither the Huo family nor Caesar got what they wanted.
"Xiaotong, I know that my aunt may be very snobbish in your eyes, but...she is my elder after all. I don't want to run into her, and I don't want to lose you, so forgive me for protecting you here.
I'm just afraid that something like last time will happen again. Every time that impostor appears, you will be hurt, so I can't let you go until I get rid of him." Huo Wenxuan said firmly.
Xia Zhitong was shocked and grabbed Huo Wenxuan's hand, "Do you really want to get rid of him? In fact, have you ever thought that he is also very pitiful. Twenty years ago, he was held in the palm of his hand like a treasure by the master.
My young master, overnight, he lost everything and was even abandoned by you. If it were you, would you accept it?"
Huo Wenxuan's handsome eyebrows frowned, and a hint of hesitation flashed in his beautiful amber eyes.
"Wenxuan, I know you have a good heart. You are just afraid that your life will be destroyed by him and that he will hurt me. But in fact...every time the person who causes harm is not him. It is Ji Kangwen, everything is wrong.
It was him who caused it!"
Xia Zhitong looked at Huo Wenxuan pleadingly, but Huo Wenxuan had no intention of changing his mind.
"Wenxuan, when I beg you... I don't want to see any of you get hurt..."
Huo Wenxuan's heart was slightly shaken.
When he heard that Xia Zhitong still cared about him, he felt warm in his heart, but what he couldn't accept the most was that Xia Zhitong still stood by him after being hurt repeatedly by that impostor!
"We can't live in peace! I will expose all of Caesar's crimes. Such a low-level organization should have disappeared long ago and should not continue to cause harm to the world!"
Huo Wenxuan turned around coldly and left.
Xia Zhitong fell on the bed dejectedly, looking at the weather outside the window. The cold wind shook the leaves, and there was nothing on the bare branches. Just like her mood at the moment, there was no glimmer of hope...
…
Master Huo and Huo Tianao doted on Xia Zhitong very much.
Huo Wenxuan seemed to be deliberately avoiding Xia Zhitong these days. Xia Zhitong was locked in a room every day and was so uncomfortable that he couldn't know what was going on outside, nor could he contact anyone.
Fortunately, Huo Tianao would come to see Xia Zhitong occasionally and take her out of the room to walk in the garden below.
"Girl, I feel very heavy. What are you thinking about?"
Huo Tianao held the wheelchair with both hands, a sincere smile on his face that had gone through many vicissitudes of life. When facing Xia Zhitong, he was always in a surprisingly good mood. For some reason, he really wanted to care about her.
"What am I thinking about? I am well-fed, well-dressed, and living a happier life than a princess. It's too late for others to envy me."
Xia Zhitong answered with a smile, but those watery eyes were full of sadness.
"Hey, girl, I know what you are thinking!"
Huo Tianao moved the wheelchair in front of Xia Zhitong, his sharp eyes staring at Xia Zhitong's confused expression.
"Master...how do you know..."
"I just know!" Huo Tianao recalled the scene when Xia Zhitong was kidnapped by Huo Chengxi that day, the subtle emotions between Xia Zhitong and Huo Chengxi's eyes, there was hatred but more of love. Only the deepest emotions can have that kind of feeling.
Complex emotions.
"Actually, the one you love is not our family Wenxuan, but Chengxi!"
Huo Tianao said something that touched Xia Zhitong's mind, and Xia Zhitong quickly explained. "Master, don't talk nonsense. I am already Wenxuan's wife. How could I..."
"Humph, do you really think I'm old?" Huo Tianao changed his usual playful expression towards Xia Zhitong and looked at her seriously.
Xia Zhitong lowered his head and looked at Huo Tianao apologetically, "I'm sorry, Master..."
"Girl, do you still remember how you taught me a lesson? You said I was bad! You obviously like me but don't admit it. I think you are worse than me!"
"master……"
"Since you like other men, why do you rely on our Wenxuan to let you go?" Huo Tianao asked sharply.
Xia Zhitong was speechless.
Yes, what Mr. Huo said is true. She doesn't love Wenxuan, but why should she let Wenxuan protect her? It turns out that she is so selfish...
"If it weren't for the fact that you are pregnant with our Huo family's child, I really wish you could get out of our Huo family immediately!"
Huo Tianao shouted angrily, and when he saw Xia Zhitong looking so uncomfortable that she was about to cry, and looking so apologetic that she wanted to find a hole to dig into, Huo Tianao couldn't bear it.
However, he didn't want this girl to look sad, he wanted to force Xia Zhitong to tell the truth.
"Master, I know I'm not worthy of Wenxuan. I love another man in my heart, and even..." Xia Zhitong hesitated for a while, looking at Huo Tian'ao sitting in the wheelchair, she almost wanted to give birth to the child in her belly.
His father told him, but he was afraid that the old man couldn't stand the excitement, so he chose to avoid finding the truth. "In short, I, Xia Zhitong, am sorry for Wenxuan, I will just leave..."
Xia Zhitong turned around and trotted away.
"Wait a moment!"
Suddenly——
The old housekeeper called to Xia Zhitong, and the old housekeeper, who had not appeared in the distance, walked slowly to Huo Tianao.
"Good morning, sir."
Huo Tianao nodded slightly, his stern face showing the dignity of a king.
"Sir, I have something to report to you." The butler bent down and came close to Huo Tian'ao's ear, "I'm just afraid that my heart may not be able to bear it after hearing this..."
Xia Zhitong had stopped at this moment. She turned around slowly and looked at the housekeeper with a pair of blank watery eyes. The housekeeper seemed to have a hostile look in his eyes every time he saw her.
"explain!"
Huo Tianao gave the order.
"Master, the child in the young mistress's belly is not from our Huo family at all!"
Xia Zhitong trembled all over, her eyes welled up with tears. She saw two balls of scorching red fire bursting out of Huo Tianao's dark eyes!
"Is what you said true?"
Huo Tian'ao's old hands were holding the wheelchair, and the bulging veins were hideous and terrifying. Xia Zhitong just stood there in a daze, feeling the anger in Huo Tian'ao's eyes, as if he had killed countless people for her unfaithfulness.
Second-rate!
The housekeeper was silent at this time. He deliberately sneered and looked at Xia Zhitong's green face.
"elder brother……"
What came from behind was Huo Wanyi's voice. After not seeing each other for a few days, Huo Wanyi went to have plastic surgery again. Her hands were as smooth as a girl's. She hooked her hands on Huo Tian'ao's shoulders and said with an aggrieved look, "We
Don’t you believe what the old housekeeper said? I have said before that this woman is too unruly. You didn’t believe it at first, but now you should know that she had a purpose in marrying into our Huo family, because
She got pregnant by that scoundrel and wants to find our Wenxuan as a cheap father!"
Xia Zhitong stood alone in the middle of the garden, looking at her with sharp eyes, as if they were trying to peel off her flesh.
Wenxuan...
Come and save me...
I don't know how to deal with your mother and... master...
"Xia Zhitong, stop looking around, Wenxuan is not here at all!"
Huo Wanyi smiled coldly and walked to Xia Zhitong's side.
Xia Zhitong just looked at Huo Tian'ao, and when she saw Huo Tian'ao looking at her with disappointment, Xia Zhitong knew that she had long been ashamed of herself in the Huo family. Without Huo Wenxuan's protection, she was not even as good as a servant, with a low status and no one else.
Slaughter.
"Master, aunt, I just said that I am not worthy of Wenxuan. I am shameless and rely on Wenxuan. But please give me some self-respect. When Wenxuan comes back, I will divorce him and leave here immediately.
.From now on, I will not come into your sight again, and I don’t want to annoy you anymore.”
Xia Zhitong felt a sense of sourness in her heart. She had long expected that Wenxuan would be discriminated against during his business trip, but she didn't expect that the master would also start to hate her because of one word.
"No, do a paternity test before leaving. I don't want you to go out and go around in the dark after you leave. Our Huo family has treated you badly. I want everyone to know that you are an unfaithful woman!"
Huo Wanyi's sharp voice seemed to sprinkle another pinch of salt on Xia Zhitong's heartache.
Xia Zhitong looked at Huo Tian'ao, only to see Huo Tian'ao turn his eyes away, Leng Yi's lips were tightly pursed, and he remained silent.
Seeing that Xia Zhitong didn't speak, Huo Wanyi forcibly dragged Xia Zhitong away.
"Ah, what are you going to do!"
Xia Zhitong struggled and looked at the servants and housekeeper Huo Tianao around him.
However, no one came to help her.
"I'll take you for a DNA test now, I can't wait! I want Wenxuan to see you clearly as a woman!"
Xia Zhitong screamed and struggled. Huo Wanyi slapped her, and blood flowed from her beautiful Qiong's nose. Xia Zhitong was too frightened to say anything. Looking at the two strong bodyguards standing in front of her, she could only lower her head obediently, and continued
Without even daring to cry, she followed Huo Wanyi and left.
The wind blew across the lawn, and her footsteps when she left were so heavy...
Huo Tianao waited for her to leave before turning his head.
"No matter what the outcome is, girl, I hope you are happy... The Huo family is not a place where people can be happy."
The only thing he could give was freedom. He didn't want Xia Zhitong to be like himself, with his lower body paralyzed and locked in this cage all day, unable to go anywhere.
…
Xia Zhitong's pregnancy has reached the point where she can undergo amniocentesis for personal identification. Huo Wanyi brought Xia Zhitong into the hospital, and she smiled coldly.
"Xia Zhitong, you and I both know who this child belongs to. So... no matter what the outcome is, you must leave the Huo family. After leaving the Huo family, I will let you live. I hope you and that evil bastard will stay away from each other.
Yes, don’t let me see you again!”
Xia Zhitong was forced to put on hospital clothes and huddled in the corner of the bed. Huo Wanyi smiled sarcastically, "Oh, no, I almost forgot. That scoundrel seemed to have been lying unconscious in the hospital for several days. I'm afraid you'll leave us Huo
After getting home, I will be a widow with my children, hahahaha!"
Xia Zhitong's heart sank. Although she had prepared for the worst, listening to Huo Wanyi telling Huo Chengxi's situation, she still felt complicated and uncomfortable.
"Someone come quickly and tie her up. This woman is so good at tricks. I'm afraid she will escape halfway!"
Xia Zhitong was tied up with a rope and forcibly injected with an anesthetic. She struggled, and her lips were covered by someone. Her pupils widened and she stared at Huo Wanyi resentfully.
But her body became increasingly weak, her eyes darkened, and she passed out...
…
When he opened his eyes again, Xia Zhitong had returned to the Huo family.
Huo Wenxuan came back one day earlier than planned in the itinerary, which Huo Wanyi did not expect.
"What did you do to her!"
Huo Wenxuan roared at Huo Wanyi, and he protected Xia Zhitong behind him, preventing anyone from getting close.
Xia Zhitong hugged the quilt and lowered her head. She was like a lifeless doll, listening indifferently to the quarrel between Huo Chengxi and Huo Wanyi.
"Xuan, why do you always protect her? This woman would rather give her property to that scoundrel than to us. The seed in her belly is not yours. You are like being poisoned, protecting her everywhere!"
"When did I agree to you taking her for a DNA test? Do you know how much harm amniotic fluid puncture can do to a woman! I love her, so I don't care whose child she is carrying! You can't separate us!"
Huo Wenxuan roared, and his beautiful voice was muted by the roar. Xia Zhitong was held in his arms, crying sadly.
She felt sorry for Huo Wenxuan and hated herself even more. Why did she fall in love with someone other than Wenxuan and why did she get pregnant with Chengxi's child? If she had not met Huo Chengxi but married Wenxuan directly, would everything have been changed?
"You don't care, I care!"
Suddenly, the door of the room was pushed open, the wheelchair turned and ran over the carpet. Huo Tianao in the wheelchair had sharp eyes and a cold and arrogant tone. He pointed at Huo Wenxuan and said, "You have no shame, but I, Huo Tianao, still have more shame! The housekeeper has already transferred all the
He told me everything, including the CD that was not played at the wedding. Although I haven’t read it, I also know about this woman and that bastard!”
Huo Wenxuan clung to Xia Zhitong, "Daddy, you said you would not interfere with my marriage. Didn't you like Xiaotong very much before? Why..."
"I like her because she is pregnant with the heir of our Huo family! Now that I know the truth, how can I allow a woman like her to stay in our Huo family!"
Xia Zhitong's weak body trembled. She wiped the tears on her face with her hands. She turned her face, swallowed her tears, faced Huo Wanyi and Huo Tianao, and said with a smile, "Don't argue. The results of the paternity test,
In fact, there is no need for a doctor to announce that the child is not Wenxuan’s. So, I disappoint you..."
Huo Wenxuan hugged her body as she was about to leave, and kissed her chaotically, "No...don't leave me, Xiaotong, you are my wife..."
A trace of sadness slipped through Xia Zhitong's eyes. She closed her eyes and avoided his lips, "If you still want to save some self-esteem for me, please let go. Let's... get a divorce!"
"divorce?"
Huo Wenxuan's crystal eyes sparkled with disbelief.
"No! Haven't we always been happy? You said you would give me a chance and you would fall in love with me! Don't care what others think, you and I are legally married, and I can't lose you!"
Huo Wenxuan couldn't accept Xia Zhitong's heartless eyes at this moment. She shook her head and said lightly, "Wenxuan, just pretend that we are not destined. I have tried hard and I only like you, not love. Don't let your family down, your
There will be more women in life who are better than me... thousands of times..."
Xia Zhitong stood up and walked towards Huo Wanyi and Huo Tian'ao. His eyes fell on the documents prepared by the lawyers beside them.
divorse agreement.
Xia Zhitong picked up the pen and signed the document without hesitation.
When Huo Wenxuan rushed over to stop him, it was already too late.
"No!!"
Huo Wenxuan was held down by three or four bodyguards and forced to the desk.
"Xuan, I'm sorry...you must divorce her."
Huo Wenxuan was unwilling to sign, so Huo Wanyi ordered someone to put his hand on the sealing mud, and his fingers were stained red. He opened his amber crystal eyes wide, and his bloodshot eyes were filled with deep hatred for Huo Wanyi and Huo Tian'ao!
"I hate you!! I hate you!!"
The next second, his finger left a fingerprint on the divorce agreement. Regardless of whether it was legal or not, with the strength of the Huo family, a fingerprint was just a sign of strength. They wanted to cross out a woman's name on the Huo family's family tree.
Names are a breeze.
Xia Zhitong stood at the door of the room, covering her lips and shaking her head slightly.
I'm sorry Wenxuan, I wish you happiness...
And I have more important people waiting for me to love.
