I married a petty hooligan in place of my sister, living a life of poverty. Who knew that my husband would suddenly transform into a mysteriously powerful and influential tycoon?
Jiang Can co...
Why are you thinking about them now? Think about your husband!
Huo Zhixing kept licking his lips.
"I just have a feeling that their relationship won't end like this." Jiang Can looked at him with her bright eyes. "Sister Yuqing told me their story, shall I tell it to you?"
"..."
"Honey, don't you want to hear it?"
Huo Zhixing looked at her, seeing how eager she was to confide in him, and didn't want to disappoint her.
Thus, Huo Sanye, who had lived a life of being the center of attention for over twenty years, learned for the first time in his life how to write the phrase "forced smile".
He forced a smile and managed to utter two words with difficulty, "I want to hear it."
Jiang Can laughed happily, nestled in front of him, and recounted her story. In fact, Huo Zhixing already knew about these things, but to play along with her, he would nod, smile, frown, or add a few comments from time to time.
He wanted her to know that he was listening very attentively.
I also genuinely empathized with her.
After what seemed like an eternity, Jiang Can finally finished speaking. She looked up at him, her big eyes sparkling like stars.
"Honey, what do you think?"
"Hmm?" Huo Zhixing came back to his senses and tried hard to recall what she had just said.
He coughed lightly twice and remained silent for a moment.
Actually, after learning that Lu Lishan had injured someone and gone to jail to protect Lin Yuqing, he actually had some respect for him.
Lu Lishan probably mistook him for Gu Mang and kept causing him trouble, probably in order to protect Lin Yuqing.
It's a good thing for a man to be responsible, but the problem is that his responsibility might not be understood.
“I don’t think… Lu Lishan is a heartless person.” Huo Zhixing’s eyes darkened slightly. “Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done so much for Lin Yuqing.”
"Really?" Jiang Can bit her lip. "But I really don't like his attitude towards you! And now you're actually taking his side?"
"Honey, what kind of conflict did you two have in the past?"
