Chapter 454 I thought it was her

“I thought it was her,” Lin Xuan said.

Lu Xinyi completely broke down.

She hung up on Lin Xuan and burst into hysterical sobs.

It turns out that she had been living in the glory brought by Shi Nian all along, and much of what she had gained was because of Shi Nian.

But she thought it was because of herself.

She thought it was her own ability and skill.

Arrogant and overbearing.

...

On the other side.

Huo Yanmo's car had already driven onto the ground outside.

The car continued on its way, while Shi Nian kept looking out the window.

Her long eyelashes curled upwards.

She no longer resembled the person in the underground parking lot; she was simply staring out the window, lost in thought.

The street scene is receding rapidly.

Just like her past.

She kept leaving him behind.

Huo Yanmo, in the driver's seat, stopped at a traffic light to look at Shi Nian beside him.

I saw her injured profile.

His brow furrowed slightly.

He noticed the injury on her face when she got on the bus, but seeing that she didn't want to talk, he didn't ask.

He only glanced at Lu Xinyi on the ground from afar as he drove away.

The traffic light countdown timer is ticking.

She didn't speak, and he didn't say anything either; he just looked at her like that.

"Beep beep—"

It wasn't until the car behind honked that Huo Yanmo looked away, started the car, and drove off.

There is an intersection ahead.

Huo Yanmo stopped the car midway.

"Wait for me," Huo Yanmo said to Shi Nian.

"Mmm," Shi Nian responded softly.

She watched as Huo Yanmo ran towards the pharmacy next door.

She looked away, took out her phone, and made a call to someone.

Meanwhile, at the pharmacy, Huo Yanmo asked the clerk to find the medicine while calling Huo Junhui to ask what had happened.

Huo Junhui told him what had just happened in the parking lot.

Lu Xinyi.

Huo Yanmo gripped his phone tightly.

He stood there, gazing at the car in the distance.

After a while, Huo Yanmo returned to the car with the medicine and ice packs.

“We’ll wait here for a bit, the driver will come and get the car later,” Huo Yanmo said.

Shi Nian nodded, got out of the car, and sat down in the back seat with them.

Huo Yanmo carefully applied an ice pack to Shi Nian's swollen face, and saw her flinch slightly.

His eyes were full of heartache.

After applying the medicine for a while, he applied more medicine to Shi Nian.

Looking at Shi Nian's injuries, Huo Yanmo pursed his lips.

Shi Nian wouldn't hold a grudge against Lu Xinyi; he couldn't.

"Did you fight back?" Huo Yanmo suddenly asked.

Shi Nian was slightly taken aback; she hadn't expected Huo Yanmo to ask such a question.

After all, he has always been refined and gentle.

But then she said, "We fought back."

He looked into her eyes: "Was it too forceful?"

She smiled slightly: "I hit her hard, and she fell flat on her face."

"That's good." Huo Yanmo said, looking at the injury on her face.

Their eyes met, and in that instant, they were of one mind.

Huo Yanmo looked at Shi Nian's profile and said admiringly, "Niannian, the rag that has been covering your bright pearl has finally been lifted, and they can finally see your brilliance."

"Hmm," Shi Nian responded, picking up a mirror to look at her face.

"What are your plans for the future?" Huo Yanmo asked with a smile.

"I want to eat the desserts from that shop that the mother and daughter run," Shi Nian replied.

Huo Yanmo smiled; she knew perfectly well that this wasn't what he was asking.

"And Yan Mo," she turned her head and looked up at him, "my face is a little swollen. Will it look bad in our wedding photos in a couple of days?"

She didn't want to think about things that were too far in the future.

Many things are complicated.

Her future is clear: to rebuild the Shi family and uncover the truth behind her father's death.

She felt a little tired and needed to catch her breath.

So let's look at what's in front of us first.

The little dessert in front of me, and the wedding photos to be taken in a couple of days.

This was her first time shooting wedding photos outdoors.

"Let me see." Huo Yanmo looked closely at her face, then suddenly smiled.

"What are you laughing at?" Shi Nian asked curiously.

"I'm thinking." Huo Yanmo looked into Shi Nian's eyes.

Looking at Shi Nian's face, he said softly, "I'm so lucky to be able to be by your side."

When he saw the links to the things that Huo Junhui had sent him from Lin Xuan.

He thanked God for giving him the opportunity.

Shi Nian looked at him and saw a flutter in his eyes.

Without any hesitation, she kissed his lips.

“Me too,” she said.

The two looked into each other's eyes, needing no words, they understood each other's feelings.

"Let's go get some small cakes," Huo Yanmo said. "I'll have Secretary Xu look for a miracle cure for my face."

"Niannian, don't worry, we'll do your makeup then, and even if the photos don't turn out well, we're not just shooting one set."

He held her face and said, "We can take many, many sets of wedding photos, see all the scenery we want to see, and go to all the places we want to go."

Shi Nian nodded with a smile.

"Once the Shi family's matter is resolved, Yanmo, let's take Sisi out for a good trip," she said.

"Okay," Huo Yanmo said.

A short while later, the driver arrived, started the car, and took the two of them to the dessert shop.

The two held hands tightly throughout the journey.

...

foreign.

Lu Yanzhi was also watching the video sent by Lin Xuan.

Looking at what happened after he left.

Hearing her repeatedly say that she loved him.

He looked at her loving eyes every time she looked at him.

Lu Yanzhi looked at the scenery by the sea.

I recall many things from the past.

She once asked him, "Ah Zhi, do you love me?"

He remembered his answer was: "Love."

"How much do you love him?" she pressed.

"I love you so much," he replied.

“Okay.” She smiled, looked at him with those eyes, and said, “Ah Zhi, I believe you.”

The day after she asked him these questions, gossip broke out about his intimate behavior with Han Wei.

How much love do you need?

How much do you love her?

Perhaps at that time, she knew something and felt uneasy, which is why she asked him.

If only he had cared for her more back then.

If only he hadn't ignored her because of Han Wei's situation.

Would things be different today?

Lu Yanzhi felt sad.

He must catch Li Yanqing!

He must find Shi Nian!

The tide was still rising, and Lu Yanzhi stared at the sea, like a statue.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

Just then, his phone rang.

He said, "I am Lu Yanzhi."

The other party told him that the matter on this side had been successfully resolved.

"good."

Lu Yanzhi sent a message to Zhou Zhiyu.

Book me a flight back to China now.

Zhou Zhiyu immediately replied: "Yes!"

Lu Yanzhi stood up, took one last look at the sea, then turned his back and headed towards the airport.

...

Time passed slowly.

But City A was in an uproar.

Because of Guo Kai's PDF being exposed, everyone now knows that Lu Xinyi was the one who spread the false information about Yu Yan.

Since Yu Yan is now completely unharmed, it has been confirmed that both the Fu and Huo families are on the train, and the train has passed the test and is now very stable, so many people have started to make a fuss.

"What is Lu Xinyi doing? Is it because the Lu family wants to get on board, so they are deliberately spreading false information?"

"The Lu family must provide a solution to this matter, or this is not over!"

"Yes, a perfectly good investment opportunity was missed because of the Lu family's false information. They must give us an explanation!"

...

Countless people went to find the Lu family.

Lu Yanzhi is currently not in the country, and Lu Qiansheng is also recuperating at home, so they cannot be stopped for the time being.

However, Lu Qiansheng and the others' phones had already been bombarded with calls.

Just then, Lu Xinyi was sent back to Mingyue Manor.

Shi Nian called the people at the Lu family's side and asked them to pick up Lu Xinyi and take her back.

When Secretary Li arrived at the underground parking garage, he saw Lu Xinyi crying there.

She thought something had happened and rushed to get checked.

Fortunately, Lu Xinyi was only slapped once, although it was a bit hard, but otherwise she was fine.

However, Lu Xinyi seemed to have broken down.

"Miss Lu, Miss Lu, what happened to you? Who hit you?" Secretary Li asked anxiously. "We'll teach him a lesson!"

But Lu Xinyi just shook her head.

What right does she have to give Shi Nian a good look?

Many of the things she received were given to her by Shi Nian.

Secretary Li panicked when he saw her dazed look.

"Miss Lu, what happened? Don't scare me!" Secretary Li said anxiously.
