Grandma Wen’s 90th birthday is scheduled for the weekend.
When Wen Li drove to pick up her parents, Wen Yongjie looked into her car and saw that she was the only one there. He asked, "Why are you alone? Where's Yuanchen?"
Wen Li exclaimed, "Ah!", remembering that she had kept her breakup with Huo Yuanchen a secret from her family.
Wen Yongjie was not in good health at that time, and she was afraid to tell her father and make him angry. But now Wen Yongjie is much better.
The last time he went to the hospital for a checkup, even the doctor said that he had recovered very well. In the past, few patients of his age could recover so quickly.
Wen Yongjie proudly told the doctor, "Thanks to my daughter's boyfriend, he always remembered to send me medicine every once in a while. I never stopped taking such expensive medicine, so I was able to recover so quickly."
The doctor asked him the name of the medicine, and when he learned it was Pratt, the
Wen Li thought that after she sent Huo Yuanchen that message last night, he would at least say something, either to coax her or to explain to her why he showed up at An Wen's house.He is still in an ambiguous period with her, so he should at least take her feelings into consideration, right?But when she woke up from her sleep and turned on her phone to check the messages, she found nothing.Huo Yuanchen ignored her completely.When Winnie came in to look for her, she saw her staring at her phone, so she asked, "What are you doing? Are you still sleepy? Get up quickly, the relatives will be here soon, and we have to help entertain the guests."Wen Li hummed and said, "Give me a call. My phone may be shut down due to unpaid bills."Winnie called her and everything was fine, the ringtone rang soon.Wen Li didn't give up and said, "Send me a message."Winnie did as she was told. She was receiving messages as normal as ever.
Huo Yuanchen waited downstairs for a while, and only got out of the car when he saw Lu Ke driving away.He didn't let Wen Li come downstairs to pick him up, and went straight upstairs.Wen Li pulled Hu Huifen to the balcony, briefly introduced the relationship between Lu Ke and her brother, and then pointed to the pile of birthday gifts and said, "Brother Lu Ke said that half of these were bought by my brother, and the other half were bought for grandma as my brother's friend. Mom, how are you going to explain this to my dad and grandma?"Hu Huifen had just digested the news that her son was still alive and well abroad. It took her a long time to come back to her senses. She said half-doubtfully, "Did your brother really ask him to buy these things? Is your brother really okay? Then why didn't he come back? Did he know that your father was sick and almost died?"Wen Li shook his head. "Brother probably doesn't know that Dad is sick. I only contacted Br
Everyone was talking and laughing at the table, and no one noticed that Huo Yuanchen was acting strangely.Only Wen Yongjie asked, "Why doesn't Yuanchen eat? Are you not used to the taste here? Otherwise, ask your aunt to cook a dish for you. What do you want to eat?"Wen Li was reluctant to let Hu Huifen work so hard, so he quickly reached out to stop her and said, "Dad, he is used to it. My mom has been busy since she got up in the morning, let her take a break."Wen Yongjie must have loved his wife more. Hearing this, he no longer insisted and just told Wen Li, "Take good care of Yuanchen."Wen Li felt that Huo Yuanchen was just being hypocritical. An Wen's home was not far from here, and the tastes of the two places were similar. He could get used to the food at An Wen's home, but not at her home?She agreed perfunctorily and went to talk to Winnie with a smile.Winnie sat next to Tong Hao, who treated her like an aunt. When eating fish
Wen Li was very angry, but she didn't want to quarrel with Huo Yuanchen at all at this moment.It was not because she had calmed down, but because she felt that arguing was useless. He was a very stubborn person and would not change at all because of what she said.I quarreled with him before because I still had expectations of him and tried to change the status quo through quarreling. Now I don’t even have the slightest unrealistic fantasy.She lifted her eyelids and glanced at Huo Yuanchen, then said lazily, "There's nothing to argue about. Go away."Huo Yuanchen pursed his lips and looked at her for a while, then asked, "You really have nothing to say to me?"Wen Li shook his head, "It was there before, but not now."Huo Yuanchen did not let her go. He stared at her in silence for a while and said, "If you don't have anything to say, then I will say it."Wen Li said "Oh" and waited for him to speak.Then Huo Yuanchen said, "I
Wen Li held the phone and said nothing.An Wen waited for a while and asked her, "What do you want to talk to Brother Yuanchen about? He is not very convenient tonight."The words were spoken politely, but the smugness in his tone could not be concealed.Wen Li slowed down and said coldly, "Ask Huo Yuanchen to call me back."After saying that, he hung up the phone without waiting for the other party to respond.She was quite angry, but not because Huo Yuanchen ran to find An Wen after quarreling with her.She was angry that she had messed up the plan. If she could have held back her anger, she wouldn't have pushed him towards Anwen.She became even more depressed when she thought that he was going to spend the night at An Wen's place.She was staying at her parents' house tonight and was sitting in her little room sulking, not noticing Hu Huifen pushing the door open."Wen Li, what are you doing?" Hu Huifen asked her.
Wen Li and Huo Yuanchen looked at each other for a while, and he did not take back what he had just said.She retracted her gaze and said to him calmly, "I'm not here to find An Wen. I'm here to find you."Huo Yuanchen frowned, as if he wanted to say something, but held back.He paused for a moment before saying, "I'm a little busy right now, let's talk about your matters in a few days."Wen Li had originally prepared to end things with him, and had tried to keep herself calm on the way here. But because of his words, she still felt endlessly aggrieved.She couldn't help but say, "Huo Yuanchen, is it true that in your heart, An Wen's affairs, no matter how big or small, are always the most important. And my affairs are insignificant?"Huo Yuanchen paused as he was about to leave, looked back at Wen Li, and said, "You go back first."Wen Li didn't move, biting her lip tightly and staring at him.But he didn't bother to pay attent
Wen Li's cold came on very badly. At first she didn't take it seriously, thinking it would be gone in two days, but she ended up lying in bed for more than a week.Fortunately, she has been living in her parents' home and has her mother's caring hand, so she can rest and recuperate.Li Hong said that she would go to the studio again after she recovered. Huo Yuanchen came to see her once, but when he saw that she didn't come, he left without saying anything.Wen Li listened and said without any emotion, "It shouldn't be a big deal."Li Hong looked at her, wanting to say something but stopping herself.Wen Li was not interested in finding out more about Huo Yuanchen. He looked at the list of clients he had turned down due to illness in the past few days and prepared to call them one by one to apologize and make new appointments.Li Hong couldn't help but said carefully, "Teacher Huo looked very serious when he came to see you that day. Maybe
Wen Li was totally shocked.She asked Zhou Ying, "Why was he suspended? What happened? Tell me slowly."Zhou Ying was angry and upset. She cried and said, "Wait a minute. I'll forward something to you."As soon as she finished speaking, Wen Li heard a message alert sound from her phone. She took down her phone and saw that Zhou Ying had sent her a photo, which was obviously taken on a computer screen. It was not very clear and it was hard to identify.Wen Li read it carefully word by word. It was an anonymous email sent to the leaders of Haishi University. The person being reported was Zhou Ying, who was accused of privately accepting valuable gifts from others and seeking benefits for her friends for personal gain.Wen Li was completely confused and asked, "You are just an ordinary English teacher at the Foreign Languages College. What benefits can you get for your friends? Also, the friend mentioned above, could it be me? I don't remember ever
Huo Yuanchen was obviously stunned when Wen Li said that.Then, when Wen Li tried to kiss her for the second time, he reached out to block her."Wen Li." He paused and said, "Go to sleep."Wen Li waved his hand away and leaned over to unbutton his pajamas. As she unbuttoned them, she said calmly, "This is the fastest way, isn't it?"Huo Yuanchen was silent.The last time she was locked in the vegetable cellar, she was so scared that she couldn't sleep the whole night. He did use this method to divert her attention.This woman learns very quickly.When Wen Li came over to kiss him again, he did not refuse. He put his hands around her waist and wanted to press her under his body.She stopped him, her breath a little unsteady as she said, "No, I want to be on top today."He laughed, raised his eyebrows and asked her , "You don't think that I don't have much energy because I'm in a bad mood?"Wen Li blushed. She didn't d
Michelle Yim stood there, looking at Huo Mingqi without any reaction.Perhaps because her expression was too dull, someone among the people taking pictures next to her whispered, "Mrs. Huo, Mr. Huo is expressing his love to you. This is such a romantic moment. You should act very touched at this moment."Maggie Cheung heard it. She glanced at the man but still had no reaction.Huo Mingqi spoke at this time, and said in a casual tone, "Please don't embarrass my wife. Since we got married, she has been willing to be my good wife behind the scenes and doesn't often appear in front of the camera. She is a little nervous now, please don't laugh at her."After a pause, he turned to Michelle Yim and said with a smile, "Come to think of it, it's my fault. I just wanted to give you a surprise and didn't inform you in advance. I didn't expect that this surprise would turn into a shock."As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the crowd immediately laug
Michelle Yim looked at Huo Mingqi, who also looked at her.It's funny to say, they are an old couple who have been married for decades, but it is rare for them to look at each other as seriously as they do now.After a while, Michelle Yim said, "What does it have to do with Wen Li? I don't like the two sisters of the An family for a long time, but you have never cared about my feelings. For so many years, in your eyes, apart from your money, the only person you care about is your Zhang Li. Even your son has to rank behind Zhang Li."Her eyes were calm, and even when she was accusing him, she didn't show any reluctance. It was the kind of calmness that comes from someone who has completely given up on someone.Huo Mingqi subconsciously said, "What nonsense are you talking about? If I didn't care about my son, would I have kept dragging my feet and not giving Lili a legitimate status?"Michelle Yim said calmly, "Why don't you give Zhang Li a legiti
Wen Li was really surprised when he heard Michelle Yim say she wanted a divorce.She opened her mouth, but found that she didn't know what to say, so she chose to say nothing.Although Michelle Yim never talked much about her and Huo Mingqi's love history, Wen Li was able to piece it together from the bits and pieces that Huo Yuanchen occasionally revealed.It is nothing more than the eldest daughter of a wealthy family obeying her family's arrangements and marrying a well-matched partner in order to gain business cooperation between the two families.The eldest daughter's temperament was made weaker by her family, probably because she was trained as a tool for business alliances and marriages since she was young. She was not valued very much in the family and was a bit cowardly and submissive.After marriage, the two lived with mutual respect and had children step by step. Until the husband took over the family business completely, he kept his f
When Huo Yuanchen hung up the phone, Wen Li couldn't help but say, "Don't you think it's too coincidental?"Huo Yuanchen raised an eyebrow at her.She coughed twice and continued, "You accompanied An Wen for a while a while ago, and she was fine. Why did she get sick again when you came to see me?"Huo Yuanchen still subconsciously said, "The onset of the disease should be just a coincidence. After all, this disease is not something she can control."Wen Li also knew that epilepsy could occur at any time, and it wasn't necessarily An Wen's intention. But she was still upset and felt uncomfortable.I said, "She has had this disease for quite a long time. What if she knows what to do and it triggers a relapse of the disease?"Huo Yuanchen looked at her disapprovingly and said, "You haven't seen An Wen get sick, so you don't know how painful it is when this disease attacks. No one will risk their own health."Wen Li curled his lips and t
The moment Wen Li saw Huo Yuanchen, he turned his eyes away with a cold face.She had her eyes closed, her face was pale, her lips were pale, and she looked very weak, but this did not affect her expression of disgust towards him.As her boyfriend, Huo Yuanchen was a little disappointed to be ignored by her, especially in front of other men.He walked towards her, his eyes falling on Lu Ke.The latter understood and stood up, giving him the seat next to Wen Li.When he sat down, Wen Li just opened her eyelids and took a lazy look, then closed her eyes again. She moved in the opposite direction of him, increasing the distance between them.In fact, the chair is so small that it can't be pulled far away. This is just her way of expressing her attitude.Huo Yuanchen pursed his lips and looked at her for a while, then reached out to touch her forehead. Even though she had been dripping half a bottle, her forehead was still a little hot.
Huo Yuanchen held the phone tightly, and his nails turned a little white.He still controlled his emotions and asked Wen Li calmly, "Where are you now?"Wen Li said, "Don't worry about me, just take care of An Wen first. I don't need you here."He asked her again, "Where are you now? Wen Li, I'm asking you a question, where are you and Lu Ke?"Wen Li laughed, his voice was quite cold, and if you listened carefully, you could hear a hint of obvious fatigue.She said, "Huo Yuanchen, I told you, I don't want to argue with you now. Just focus on taking care of An Wen. Don't worry about where I am. Even if I tell you , can you come? You still have to stay in the hospital and stay with An Wen."Huo Yuanchen's temper also flared up at this moment. He said in a cold tone, "I advise you to tell me quickly."Wen Li paused and said calmly, "I'm in the hospital.""Which hospital? What are you doing in the hospital?" Huo Yuanchen said, sneered, and
After seeing Yu Jingchen off, Huo Yuanchen stood alone at the door of the ward for a while before going back.He couldn't tell why, but he was in a bad mood at the moment. He kept inexplicably thinking of the look Wen Li gave Lu Ke that night.Whenever I think about it, I wish I could go back right now and push her down on the bed and fuck her hard.The nurse was feeding An Wen, so he sat next to her and used his cell phone to send a message to Wen Li, asking her what she was doing.After sending it, I stared at the phone screen in a daze, not knowing what was going on in my mind.After a while, the phone in his hand vibrated. He quickly clicked it and saw that the dean had sent two documents to the work group for everyone to study.He exited and clicked into Wen Li's dialog box to take a look.Quiet as a chicken.I don’t know if she has seen his message.He sent her another message, asking her if she had eaten on time.
Zhou Ying generously called Yu Jingchen.He was just about to get off work, but after receiving the call, he went to the hospital.When Yu Jingchen arrived at An Wen's ward, he saw Huo Yuanchen was indeed there, listening carefully to the doctor's instructions, occasionally asking about the names of specific medications. When she saw him coming, she was obviously stunned for a moment, but still motioned for him to wait a moment.Yu Jingchen stood beside the bed and waited.An Wen was resting with her eyes closed. He casually picked up the patient card on the bedside and was stunned when he saw the diagnosis result on it.When I put the card back, I accidentally saw An Wen's eyelashes move.He paused, looked at it twice more, and put the card back calmly.It just so happened that Huo Yuanchen had finished talking to the doctor at this moment. After sending the medical staff away, he asked Yu Jingchen, "Why are you here?"The tone
