Chapter 231 Never Mention Divorce in This Life

The man half-knelt in front of her, his big warm palm covering her right leg, massaging her calf muscles with distinct joints.

Gently and softly, and very methodical.

Qiao Xi saw that he was distracted.

Huo Xingzhou raised his eyes, his eyelashes fluttering slightly: "Why are you swimming in a bathrobe?"

He clearly knew everything, yet he tried to tease her with a cold face.

"I..." Qiao Xi racked her brains to find an excuse, "The swimming pool is a bit cold at night."

Huo Xingzhou took a quick glance and the thermometer used for the swimming pool showed that the real-time temperature was 30 degrees.

He didn't say it.

Qiao Xi felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze, and she subconsciously pulled her bathrobe up to avoid revealing the fabric underneath. When she decided to implement her plan, she was very brave.

But when Huo Xingzhou appeared in front of her, her courage receded like the tide.

The man massaged her for more than ten minutes and asked casually, "Does it still hurt?"

At night, under the lighting of the swimming pool, his eyes were even darker and more focused.

Qiao Xi shook her head.

"Since it doesn't hurt anymore, swim two laps with me," he said.

"Mr. Huo, aren't you going to change your clothes?" Qiao Xi asked, pointing at his white shirt and suit pants.

"You can swim in your bathrobe, so it's nothing for me. Besides, I'm already wet."

Huo Xingzhou slowly unfastened the watch on his wrist and put it aside. He then deftly pulled off the belt, rolled it up and put it aside.

The white shirt was almost transparent and stuck to his chest, and was dripping with water.

"Qiao Xi, it's your turn to take off your clothes. Are you really going to swim in your bathrobe, or are you hiding something from me? Don't forget, you are still on probation."

He talked so much that she couldn't find any excuses.

Qiao Xi's ears were burning as she said, "Mr. Huo, you go down first. I'll be right up!"

She took off her bathrobe and there was really nothing left.

The black battle robe inside was soaked with water and stuck to her skin. Just thinking about it, she felt all the blood in her body rushing to her face.

The man went into the water calmly and looked at her leisurely in the swimming pool.

Qiao Xi faced such gazes and slowly moved to the shore. She placed her fingers on the belt of her bathrobe, breathing heavily but still unable to make up her mind.

The man reached out and grabbed her ankle.

Pull hard.

He moved his body in a protective motion to protect her and safely pulled her into the water.

There was a sound of puff.

Qiao Xi entered the water, creating countless splashes.

"Why did you hesitate on the shore for so long?" Huo Xingzhou's eyelashes were stained with moisture, making them look even deeper.

His fingers untied her laces, and her bathrobe fell apart, soon washed away by the water. Qiao Xi was held by him around her slender waist, her face flushed, her eyes dodging.

The man looked at her calmly and said, "So that's how it is. You don't like wearing a swimsuit when you swim, but you like wearing a sexy skirt?"

Is it a question of whether she likes it or not?

Qiao Xi was embarrassed and glared at him.

"You like it!" she defended.

"So you wore it to please me?" Huo Xingzhou had deep brows and a nice voice with a hint of temptation.

Qiao Xi bit her lip and said awkwardly, "Yes, I am apologizing to you and trying to please you."

"Little Doctor, do you think I would like this way of apologizing?" Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "You filed for divorce with me a while ago, and the Civil Affairs Bureau still has our divorce registration application form."

"I'm sorry, I'll cancel it tomorrow."

Qiao Xi was sincere and she had already deeply realized her mistakes.

"Is that enough?" He seemed unsatisfied.

Qiao Xi raised her eyes and looked at him: "You say, as long as I can do it."

"You can do what I said." His expression was calm and precious. "Qiao Xi, don't let me hear the word divorce from you in this life. Can you promise me?"

In the end, he couldn't bear to make things difficult for her.

Raised the white flag.

Qiao Xi looked at him foolishly and nodded solemnly.

"I will not bring up divorce again! If there is any misunderstanding, I will come to you to clarify! But Mr. Huo cannot fall in love with another woman."

"Remember what you said."

His facial features were stern, and when he looked at her deeply, there was an irresistible coldness in his eyes.

"Okay." Qiao Xi said seriously.

Never mention divorce again!

Huo Xingzhou's fingertips caressed her waist, and the black veil was even more vaguely visible in the water. The water in the swimming pool was so clear that everything could be seen clearly.

Under such scorching gaze, Qiao Xi moved her body.

"Qiao Xi, you actually don't lie at all."

Huo Xingzhou's hands restrained her body. He recalled Aunt Qian's words that she was inherently inferior, and said in a slightly hoarse voice, "You are no worse than others. You are beautiful, kind-hearted, and have excellent medical skills.

You are not my choice after weighing the pros and cons."

Under the cool light of the swimming pool's incandescent lamps.

The strands of hair on his forehead were dripping with water, and his handsome face seemed even more dignified and calm because of his focused expression.

It made Qiao Xi feel that he held her at the top of his heart.

She saw herself in the man's eyes.

Beautiful, decent, and dignified.

She had never been chosen for sure.

But the man in front of her told her that her choice was not made after weighing the pros and cons, but was determined to do it even though she knew it was impossible.

Qiao Xi's eyes were bright. She hugged his body and said to him, "Mr. Huo, I will never mention the word divorce to you again. Even if you chase me away, I won't leave."

If she lets go again, she'd be a fool.

"Then please me more and make me unable to leave you," he said.

Qiao Xi came closer and kissed him on his thin lips: "To please you."

There was a faint smile in the man's eyes, like a lake that was shattered and left a piece of shimmering water. He swam to the shore with her in his arms, pressed her against the shore and kissed her wantonly.

His palm was on her back, and his thin lips moved down from her eyebrows to her fair neck.

The water washed over her black translucent suspender skirt, which looked particularly ambiguous in the quiet night.

He asked, "Who taught you to apologize in this way?"

Qiao Xi raised her head slightly, her body fuzzy and she said, "Shu Xue."

"She has a lot of tricks." Huo Xingzhou guessed from the details that Shu Xue and Zhou Yu had a deep relationship. Birds of a feather flock together.

Shu Xue is also a talented person since she can get along with Zhou Yu.

It's good for Qiao Xi to have a close friend like this to give her advice.

"She said that if a girl chases a boy, it's easy to win him over." Qiao Xi opened her mouth slightly and breathed rapidly.

The man's voice was extremely hoarse: "It's better without the veil."

The delicate kisses fell on her skin, and Qiao Xi shuddered unbearably.

His fingers fiddled with her clothes, and finally, with bloodshot eyes, he managed to hold back his anger and said, "I didn't bring anything."

She still has to work hard for her career, and even if the clinic is closed, she will report to the Chinese Medicine Association.

Next month will be a grand event for the traditional Chinese medicine community.

Qiao Xi moved closer, took his hand and whispered, "Mr. Huo, if we have a child, let's give birth to it."

Everything depends on fate.

She didn't want to let go.

Tonight, I also want to indulge in romance all night.

Use the ultimate entanglement to wash away the stained past and heartbreak.

She regards this moment as her new life.
