"Soft! You, you, you! Why did you fly back to the imperial capital alone? Did you and Huo have a quarrel?"
The foreigner's noisy voice came from the mobile phone.
Yu Ruanruan did not bring any bodyguards with her when she returned to the Imperial City this time, and she did not say anything to Salem. She was disturbed by the man's loud voice and couldn't help but put her phone away.
"There was no quarrel."
"Why did Huo look so ugly when he got up this morning without a quarrel? I heard Da Zhuang say that you guys had a very tense argument last night and Huo came back to drink."
"Oh, I smoke and drink at the same time. Apparently, I made him very upset."
Yu Ruanruan had already calmed down, but Salem's words made her even more angry.
The foreigner didn't hear the sarcasm in the girl's words at all, and responded, "Yes, Huo Jin knew you were going back to the imperial capital this morning and bought a ticket to go back."
Yu Ruanruan was stunned, "He's back too?"
"gone back!"
Yu Ruoruan originally wanted to pierce the window paper on WeChat, but she thought that since Huo Xu was back, it would be better to go to him directly and ask him in person.
"I understand, Salem. I have something else to do, so I'll hang up first."
With that said, Yu Ruoruan hung up the phone without waiting for Salem's reply.
"Uncle Wu." The housekeeper and Wu's mother were preparing dinner downstairs. Yu Ruanruan went downstairs and said, "I want to go to Qiangyuan. Please give me the key to the garage."
Although Yu Ruanruan didn't buy a car, she had a lot of her brother's cars in the garage.
Now that my eldest brother has gone to country M, these sports cars are gathering dust in the garage.
"Miss, it's so late. Do you want to drive to Qiangyuan by yourself? You just got your driver's license. It's not safe to be on the road like this. How about I take you there?"
"No, I'll go by myself."
"Oh, okay." Uncle Wu noticed that the eldest lady was not in a good mood. Although he was a little worried, he still gave her the garage key.
Yu Ruanruan picked a red Porsche, stepped on the accelerator and drove directly towards Qiangyuan.
Huo Xu returned to the imperial capital at one o'clock in the afternoon. He wanted to go to Ruanruan immediately and explain things clearly, but a strong man never fights an unprepared battle.
If he doesn't have a decisive answer, even if he talks to Ruanruan, it will only make the situation more out of control.
"Sir, the car is ready. Does your head still hurt?"
Zhang Mian knocked respectfully on the door outside the study.
Huo Xu sat on the boss's chair, supporting his forehead with one hand, his temples aching.
It started last night. Throughout the night, he had countless dreams. In his dreams, Tangtang was standing in the corridor of the health center, running towards him with staggering steps.
"Big brother! Brother Xiaoxu!" she cried. Such a young and thin child was swallowed up by the fire.
Huo Xu remembered that Tangtang fell seriously ill that time and had a high fever for three days. The source of all the evil was to pick up the Buddhist amulet that was thrown into the pond for him.
When they were young, they were homeless orphans who could be insulted and bullied by anyone.
It was her small shoulders and not-wide-but-warm embrace that gave him the faith to carry on.
In such poor and difficult years, having her by his side was a blessing to him.
Because he was destined not to be loved since he was born, his father treated him with cold words, ignored him, and his mother hated him and even wanted to strangle him with her own hands.
He never believed that anyone would love him.
But God gave him Tangtang.
Then, he cruelly took her away.
He now has Ruianruan, and he loves Ruianruan very much, but how can he erase Tangtang from his memory?
He had never thought about this problem, but now, for the sake of being soft, he had to think about it seriously.
"Master, if you feel uncomfortable, go ahead tomorrow..."
Zhang Mian noticed the man's discomfort and couldn't help but persuade her, "Miss Yu is not an unreasonable person. You need some time."
Huo Xufeng's eyes were bloodshot because of the swelling and pain in his forehead. He remained silent and taciturn, but every time he took a breath, he felt the stinging sensation of a blade scratching his lungs.
"Go to Emperor Jingtian City."
…
Yu Ruoruan drove to Qiangyuan, and when passing the intersection, she happened to see a familiar car speeding past.
The rear window rolled down halfway, and a familiar profile with chiseled features came into view.
Yu Ruoruan was stunned.
Is it Huo Xu?
Where is he going?
A suspicion arose in her heart, and Yu Ruanruan changed direction and followed the man's car all the way to the western suburbs.
When he saw the words "Emperor Scenery Tiancheng", Yu Ruanruan's expression was startled, and then a touch of irony flashed in his heart. When he returned to the imperial capital, the first person who came to see him was not her, but the Bai Yueguang in his heart.
Yu Ruanruan is not stupid.
All the information is integrated and a conclusion is drawn.
That is, the secret base of Emperor Jingtian City that once belonged to Huo Xu and Yu Chengcheng, and those faceless girls hidden in the darkroom are Huo Xu's White Moonlight.
That's ridiculous.
There is one person hidden in his heart, but he can be kind to another person without reservation, whether it is to Yu Chengcheng in his previous life or to her in this life.
How on earth does he manage to multitask?
People are often most realistic when they deceive themselves.
Yu Ruoruan finally discovered that the truth was that she loved Huo Xu so deeply. Only by loving deeply could she fall into the same trap again and again.
Only when he makes a little sacrifice for himself will he feel distressed and reluctant to let go.
When he was hurt for her and narrowly escaped death for her, her heart ached and she couldn't bear it. Therefore, she was easily shaken and forgave him for all the mistakes he had committed against her in his previous life.
But in the past life, why didn't I get hurt time and time again for him? How could I not just narrowly escape death for him again and again?
What was he doing at that time?
His heart was hard. While he was protecting Yu Chengcheng with his body, he was thinking about Bai Yueguang, who was no longer alive.
Where do you still have the energy to look at her?
It turns out that the person who loves more is always herself.
Yu Ruanruan felt as if her heart was being squeezed tightly by a big hand, and the pain of suffocation was transmitted from the nerve endings to the whole body.
Every cell can feel this skin-like pain.
She parked the car on the side of the road, climbed over the wall, and sneaked into the villa secretly.
This villa has great privacy and the walls are very high. When Yu Ruanruan jumped off the wall, she sprained her knee.
However, she felt no pain at all and limped deeper into the villa.
She didn't know what she was doing, but her subconscious told herself that she wanted to find the answer.
Emperor Jingtian City was originally Huo Xu's private vacation villa. He seldom came here, so naturally there was no one to guard it.
Nowadays, technology is advanced, and there are surveillance cameras everywhere in the house, so we are not afraid of thieves.
So the girl's staggering figure secretly followed her in without being noticed at all.
Yu Ruoruan walked around the villa but couldn't find Huo Xu until she looked around and saw the legendary secret door open.
Her heartbeat suddenly accelerated at this moment.
Is this the darkroom where the paintings are hidden?
