Huo Yan asked with a smile, "What do you want? Did you and my dad give me another little sister?"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yaxuan's expression changed, and anger flashed unexpectedly in her eyes! Huo Yan's words had inadvertently struck a nerve with her!
Her married life with Hockey was extremely rare; Hockey was always traveling all over the world, claiming to be busy, but in reality, he was just avoiding her.
In order to steal Huo Xize's love, Ji Hanchen drugged Huo Xize and forced them into a relationship.
She then faked a pregnancy to force Huo Xize to take responsibility for her, and used the Ji family to pressure him into a marriage alliance.
At the time, Hoczez was under pressure from his family and had no choice but to temporarily agree to get engaged to her.
But Huo Xize still had Ye Jianjia in his heart and refused to break up with her no matter what.
Afterwards, Ji Yaxuan used Ye Jianjia's unborn child to force Ye Jianjia to leave, and gave her a bank card with 100 million yuan in it.
Huo Xize believed that Ye Jianjia had betrayed him for money, and he was completely heartbroken. Only then did they officially register their marriage, hold a grand wedding, and become a real couple.
On their wedding night, Huo Xize did not go home and refused to have sex with her, citing her pregnancy as the reason.
Even after Huo Yansheng was born, he said that it was not suitable to have sex after just having a child.
Later, Huo Xize let her sleep with Huo Yan by herself, saying it was for the child's good, and they began to live separately.
It wasn't until Huo Yan was five or six years old that she finally couldn't hold back anymore and drugged Huo Xize again.
They finally had sex, but it was during that time that she became pregnant with her daughter.
Then the process just kept repeating itself.
When his daughter grew a little older, Huo Xize said that his body was no longer good enough and that he had no desire for sex. He even got a diagnosis of impotence to make her give up on him.
But Ji Yaxuan understood that it was all because Huo Xize didn't love her.
Unlike other wealthy young men, Huo Xize is self-disciplined and can control his desires for the woman he loves.
Such a man is extremely rare, and that is precisely why Ji Yaxuan is even more fascinated by him.
Over the years, her obsession with Huo Xize has remained strong, but it's become unclear whether it's just a lingering obsession with unrequited love or because she truly loves him too much.
Ji Yaxuan pulled herself together and chuckled coquettishly, "You naughty child, always so mischievous. How old are your father and I? You're never serious."
"So what do you want from me?" Huo Yan pressed.
Ji Yaxuan said, "Mom is just reminding you that your grandpa's 80th birthday is next week. You can't just focus on having fun and forget about such an important event. Your grandpa loves you the most, so you can't be ungrateful."
"Okay, I understand. I'll definitely be back on time."
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yan sneered, "That woman is really good at acting. After all these years, she really doesn't get tired at all."
Xu Qingyun narrowed her cold eyes; Ji Yaxuan should resolve this as soon as possible.
That vicious woman has lived for far too long; it's time for her to pay the price!
"Brother, my sister and I will go back with you next week."
Xu Qingyun spoke coldly.
Huo Yan raised an eyebrow. "Okay, it'll probably be quite lively."
Then, he turned to Xia Chu and said, "Sister, take good care of yourself this week."
Xia Chu nodded, having regained her composure after nearly collapsing. She needed to conserve her energy for revenge!
**
There were few men around during the day, and it wasn't until after 10 p.m. that Ji Hanchen, Lu Chuan, and Shen Luo returned.
Xu Qingyun and the others were unaware of Bai Ruiting's situation, but seeing their red and swollen eyes and sorrowful faces, they knew something terrible must have happened.
Xu Qingyun and Qin Shuang looked at each other, and Qin Shuang asked, "Lu Chuan, what happened?"
Lu Chuan didn't say anything, but sat down in front of Qin Shuang and rested his head on her shoulder. "Wife, I'm so tired, let me lean on you for a bit."
Qin Shuang raised an eyebrow and patted Lu Chuan's head, "Yeah, yeah."
Xu Qingyun also stood up and walked towards Ji Hanchen, pursed her lips, and asked in a low voice, "Is it Bai Ruiting...?"
The fact that all three of them showed this expression at the same time most likely has something to do with Bai Ruiting.
Ji Hanchen's eyes reddened again, his thin lips trembled, and he gave a hoarse "hmm".
Then he didn't say anything more, but took Xu Qingyun's hand and left Xia Chu's ward.
The two entered the corridor, where Ji Hanchen gently embraced Xu Qingyun's waist, arched his back slightly, and buried his face in the crook of her neck.
Warm tears fell, and Xu Qingyun's heart trembled slightly.
Ji Hanchen actually cried.
Bai Ruiting... is dead?
Xu Qingyun didn't ask, but she already had a pretty good idea of the answer in her heart.
After a long while, Ji Hanchen straightened up, suppressing all his emotions, and said in a deep and hoarse voice, "Bai Ruiting and Bai Shuze died together, burned beyond recognition."
Xu Qingyun's pupils contracted, her eyes filled with shock.
He knew Bai Ruiting was in trouble, but he never expected it to be in such a tragic way, and that Bai Shuze was also dead?!
"Is it because of what Bai Shuze did?"
Ji Hanchen nodded. "He feels guilty towards us. Yunyun, Bai Shuze's death is not a pity, but Bai Ruiting is innocent. And the one who deserves to die the most is Ji Yaxuan!"
Xu Qingyun's eyes turned cold. "You're right, Ji Yaxuan deserves to die? Ji Hanchen, I need to make this clear beforehand, I won't show you any mercy!"
Ji Hanchen's eyes narrowed. "From this moment on, Ji Yaxuan has nothing to do with me!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Qingyun's lingering worry vanished completely.
At the same time, Shen Luo in the ward was also on the verge of collapse.
Xia Chu had loved this man deeply after all, so she looked at him with concern, "Chen Luo."
She reached out her hand to Shen Luo.
Shen Luo walked heavily to Xia Chu with her two stiff, leaden legs.
Xia Chu gently held his hand, silently giving him strength.
Shen Luo couldn't stop her tears and buried her face in Xia Chu's hand, sobbing silently.
Seeing this, Qin Shuang and Lu Chuan tacitly withdrew.
Only then did Shen Luo completely let go, "Chu Chu, Rui Ting is dead. He avenged you by killing Bai Shu Ze."
Bai Ruiting didn't say it was to avenge Xia Chu, but the three of them understood that Bai Ruiting just didn't want them to blame themselves.
Bai Shuze did those vicious things, but Bai Ruiting did not betray Xia Chu.
Xia Chu's fingers went numb; Bai Ruiting had actually...
Why bother?
After an unknown amount of time, Xia Chu finally spoke up, "Shen Luo, let's get a divorce."
Shen Luo froze instantly, her face drained of color.
She finally said those words.
From the moment his child died, he knew there would be another day.
But when she actually said those words, she was heartbroken, her heart felt like it was being torn apart, and she felt a suffocating pain.
"Chu Chu, please, can we not get a divorce?"
