"No." When Huo Yicheng said no, he didn't even look at Gong Qiu.
Gong Qiu began to wonder, was Huo Yicheng angry because she didn't care about him? Or did he think that he had learned about his illness from outsiders, and that she hadn't done her duty well?
"Why am I angry?" Huo Yigang turned his head and asked. He almost forgot about Gong Qiuyi just now because he was distracted.
"I feel like I don't care about you."
As soon as she finished speaking, Huo Yicheng burst out laughing. Gong Qiu beat his chest in annoyance. She was losing more and more face in front of Huo Yicheng, but she felt that this was not a bad thing.
"If they know that we are reconciled, they will prevent us from enjoying the holiday for a whole day. I don't want to be disturbed." Huo Yicheng explained slowly.
No one knows better than him how Gong Qiuyi treats him, and he doesn't feel like he has to explain to anyone. The only person who has to explain is Gong Qiuyi, not the Huo family or the Gong family.
People, everyone in the outside world.
"Are you really not angry?" Gong Qiu asked cautiously.
"I'm never really angry with you."
This answer made a certain part of Gong Qiuyi's heart sink. He was not only addressing her question, but also gave her a lot of security. He would not be really angry at her unreasonable troubles.
Gong Qiuyi gently leaned her head on Huo Yiheng's shoulder. This was the only haven that could give her warmth. She wanted to keep leaning on it like this all the time.
"Huo Yigeng, I felt very painful at that time. I didn't know what pain felt like before, but when I was alone, I finally understood that you are the only one who can bring me this kind of pain, really.
"Gong Qiu held Huo Yigang's hand and seemed to be talking to himself.
But it seemed like she was telling Huo Yiheng a particularly terrible truth, how much she needed him.
Huo Yicheng didn't speak. He knew that feeling. Only he and Gong Qiu could understand it. She needed him far more than he imagined. He had become her spiritual support because she could only trust him.
"I think... Mom wants me to be happy, no matter who I am with." With just one sentence, Gong Qiu completely let go.
From now on, she will never take divorce for granted because of Hu Yin. Just like Huo Yicheng said, her people should be hers, and her life should be her own, and it should not be helped by others.
She chooses.
Huo Yicheng went to work the next day, and Gong Qiuyi did the same. She did not ask Huo Yicheng about the acquisition. She felt that if he wanted to say something, he would definitely say it. In her eyes, this was also a matter of respect.
Huo Yicheng seldom talked about his business matters to her. Most of the topics between them were about her asking him for his opinion. She thought he was very powerful. She would get the answer if she asked him many things she didn't understand.
After the reconciliation, the relationship became even better, and the divorce would no longer happen again. Gong Qiu often looked at her ring finger in a daze. She always thought, if there is no reconciliation now, and there is no ring, what about the ring?
Whose hands will it be, or will it be thrown somewhere by Huo Yigang.
Towards the end of the year, Huo Yicheng became even busier, and so did Gong Qiuyi. Apart from two phone calls in the morning and evening, they rarely talked. When Huo Yicheng returned home, Gong Qiuyi had already fallen asleep.
