denly spoke: "I just saw Miss Wen! Gu Changqing, are you still blaming yourself for not being able to save her Don't worry, brother saved her and took care of her personally… You can rest assured."Gu...At the thought of it, Huo Shaoting couldn't bear it.

But he's not a young hothead anymore, he couldn't possibly do something irrational just because Wen Man is dating Jing Ci.

For example, pull them forward.

For example, Chong impulsively confessed his love to Wen Man, saying he wanted to marry her.

It was he himself who told Wen Man that he couldn't give her what she wanted!

He thought that breaking up with Wen Man was an ordinary thing. Although he felt something when he saw her the other day, he didn't think she was indispensable by his side.

But when he discovered she might belong to someone else.

This is a big thrill for him!

Ho Shao-ting was experiencing a change unlike any he'd ever known, and at this moment, he couldn't figure out what he truly wanted!

If Wen Man's body were compared, there were those who were prettier and had better figures.

As for companionship, Ho Shaoting has never been short of people around him. With his family background and appearance, there are plenty who fawn over him with tenderness... Only Wen Man was the one who wouldn't accept marriage and would simply walk away after giving a pat on the ass.

Thousands of fireworks...

Huo Shao Ting raised his eyes, looking incredibly strained.

But those who embraced each other are already gone!

Where did they go

The atmosphere is so good tonight, do you think they'll go straight to the hotel... and do it

Ho Shao-ting's heart ached, so painfully that he could barely breathe!

……

Wen Man finished the art exhibition, Jing Ci then gentlemanly escorted her home.

He could see that Wen Man wasn't that invested. She did have feelings for him, but those were because of his outward appearance.

Wen Man didn't feel a spark.

Jing Ci was not discouraged. He gallantly sent her home and made plans for next time.

Night fell thick and heavy.

Wen Man said goodbye to Jing Ci downstairs in the apartment building.

The streetlights stretched their figures long and thin. Jingci probably liked her too much, as he talked for a long time... In the end, he laughed, "Go upstairs! Otherwise I'll be talking until dawn."

Wen Man nodded.

She took off her scarf and gave it back to him.

Although his words remained unspoken, a profound depth resided in his gentle and refined features.

"In the not too distant future…Wen Man, I hope you’ll invite me up for a visit."

This is an invitation from a mature man, you can tell just by tasting it.

Wen Man is not a little girl anymore.

She didn't say yes, nor did she say no.

She smiled slightly. "We'll see."

Jing Ci smiled and walked backward, waving at her: "Good night, Miss Wen."

He opened the car door and got in.

Wen Man also waved goodbye.

She thought, tonight's date was very pleasant. Jingci, with his personality, is the kind of person who suits her.

Wen Man is in a good mood.

She took a bath, emerged wrapped in a towel smelling sweetly of it, and received another WeChat message from Jingci.

He sent a postcard.

It's probably in front of his villa, with lights and decorations for Christmas.

Wen Man smiled faintly.

She was just about to reply to a WeChat message when her phone rang...

The caller is [Lawyer Huo].

Wen Man hesitated for a moment, but still accepted the call. However, there was a long silence on the other end of the line.

Finally, Wen Man couldn't help but speak up.

"Mr. Ho"

Ho Shaoting's voice was hoarse: "Wen Man, how have you been lately"

Wen Man thought to herself, Huo Shao Ting wasn't a fussy person either, so why did he suddenly become so warm and caring But considering he helped her father win the lawsuit, she still replied softly: "Um...that's good."

"Where are you spending Christmas Eve today Are you having fun"

Wen Man is not stupid.

Ho Shao-ting asked this way, he must have known something.

She fell silent for a moment, then murmured, "Pretty good! Pretty happy."

Got a boyfriend

……

He was practically torturing the prisoner. Wen Man hesitated for a moment before saying, “Yes! There is such a person.”

What kind of person Are they good-looking What do they do for a living

Wen Man couldn't help herself.

She lowered her voice deliberately. "Ho Shaoting, it's over between us!"

"So"

So, about my business, you don't need to worry! If you really want to know, I'm going to get along well with him. He's a very nice person and he looks good too.

……

After she finished speaking, she had some regrets.

What is she trying to compete with Huo Shaoting for

Over there, Huo Shaoting was silent for a long time before softly asking, "Is Jingci more handsome than me"

He hung up the phone right after he finished speaking.

……

Wen Man blinked lightly, unable to believe what she had heard.

Surely Huo Shaoting knew, but he pretended to go around in circles with her for a while.

She can go to hell!

Wen Man's mood was affected by him, and she lost some interest in chatting with Jing Ci.

*** Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

Over there, Huo Shaoting's mood was even worse.

The floor-to-ceiling windows of the penthouse apartment overlook the best cityscape.

Ho Shaoting stepped out of the shower, his hair still dripping wet. He wore a black bathrobe, slightly open at the chest.

He leaned against the bar, watching the night view with a slight daze.

After Wen Man, he wanted to forget her, but his apartment was full of the scent of Wen Man's life.

In the dressing room, her kimono hung beside his.

She bought two pairs of couple slippers, which are still unopened.

Every day, he would open the jewelry box and see the sets of jewelry he had bought for her, lying in velvet boxes…

She didn't take any of these!

These, all of them, were reminding him that there had once been a woman who had invaded his life, perhaps even his body and mind.

Recently, Ho Shaoting has started having insomnia.

Mingming is very tired from work, but she can't fall asleep lying in bed...

Occasionally, in the early morning, he would roll over and think Wen Man was still there. He'd want to give her a good morning kiss or maybe kiss her until their bodies were on fire and just...make love.

There is nothing...

He can only hold a pillow.

On the vast bed, he couldn't feel anything when he reached out.

Ho Shaoting finished the red wine, ending this cold Christmas Eve. He walked to the bedroom, which was still cold and empty.

He lay there for a while, but then got up and went to the bathroom.

For a moment, drops of water fell.

In the water sounds, occasional stifled gasps of a man could be heard...

After the

ordeal, Huo Shaoting returned to bed with damp hair.

He turned off the light, but he felt emptier.

When the night was deep and all was still, his body was more truthful than he was.

He missed Wen Man, missed her body. Calculating the days, it had been almost a month since he last...

*

Good morning.

Aunt came back to work and tidied up the house, made breakfast.

Ho Shaoting came out of the bedroom.

Auntie didn't know that Wen Man had moved out, so naturally she asked, "Has Miss Wen gotten up yet"

Ho Shao-ting adjusted his tie.

He sat down at the table, took a sip of his coffee, and then said in a low voice, “We broke up! She’s moved out.”

Aunt knew she had spoken wrongly and apologized repeatedly.

Ho Shao-ting opened the morning paper: “Just be more careful in the future.”

He paused, gazing at his aunt: "You tidy the bedroom today, and organize the walk-in closet. Pack up Miss Wen's clothes in bags, and her jewelry... have Zhang the secretary come and handle it."

Aunt listened to him say that, knowing it was a complete breakup.

She is pretty sad.

Before, I thought Lawyer Huo treated Miss Wen quite well, with an infatuated look. He even wanted to do that thing early in the morning.

How can things change so suddenly

Aunt hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then how do we deal with the clothes after packing them Just throw them away"lly have"Today she asked him out for coffee, and he was overjoyed.He thought she had come to terms and wanted to start over with him, but he never expected her to do this.Someone like Yao Zian, she co...
