Although the others with him stopped Huo Beixiao from hitting him, they didn't actually plan to call the police, since they were the ones who started gossiping about him behind his back.
Especially the person who got beaten, who was full of foul language, deserved to be beaten.
Huo Beixiao's sharp, cold gaze, like that of a hawk, was fixed on the man rolling on the ground.
The others were also terrified.
At this moment, the man, driven by a sudden surge of malice, hurriedly scrambled to his feet and shouted to the others, "Stop him! Stop him! I'll go call the police myself!"
As he spoke, he scrambled to his feet and ran into the police station.
The others originally wanted to have a proper talk with Huo Beixiao, and if everyone compromised, the matter would be over.
Unexpectedly, the man suddenly got up and rushed into the police station, leaving Huo Beixiao unsure whether to stop him.
Just then, Zhu Dong and Guo Tao arrived.
The two men blocked the man's path, their fierce gazes fixed on him. "What do you want?"
The man instinctively took two steps back. "No, I didn't mean to do anything?"
"Get out!" Guo Tao shouted coldly.
They quickly scrambled away.
When his companions saw him run away, they quickly apologized to Huo Beixiao and ran after him.
Only then did Zhu Dong look at Huo Beixiao, who was clenching his fists and trying to control his emotions.
He sighed and walked towards Huo Beixiao. "Boss Huo, that woman..."
He had barely begun to speak when Huo Beixiao's icy gaze fell upon him.
He immediately swallowed back what he was about to say, and pulled Huo Beixiao's arm, saying, "Forget it, let's go drink."
"I won't drink!" Huo Beixiao refused without thinking. "Qiaoqiao doesn't like me smelling of alcohol."
Zhu Dong couldn't hold back this time. "Boss Huo, that woman not only betrayed you, she left! Who do you think you're better at torturing yourself like this?"
Huo Beixiao looked at Zhu Dong with deep eyes, "Drinking is bad for your health and will lead to mistakes. Going drinking with you is just torturing myself."
Zhu Dong: ...
He suddenly realized that what Boss Huo said made sense.
After Huo Beixiao finished speaking, he ignored him and turned to leave.
Looking at his tall, straight back, Zhu Dong felt a deep sense of suffocation and discomfort.
He scratched his head and said to Guo Tao, "Taozi, what do you think is going on? Boss Huo seems perfectly normal, and he's still as clean-living as before, not even drinking alcohol."
But seeing him like this, I just don't feel right.
"He's bottling all his emotions up inside right now! Maybe if he were to drink himself into a stupor, he'd feel a little better," Guo Tao sighed.
They said their men saw Huo Beixiao's car arrive at the police station and, fearing something else might happen, rushed over.
Unexpectedly, upon arriving, I saw Huo Beixiao clashing with those people.
In the old days, in the black market, everyone did things illegally, so it was fine if Huo Beixiao beat someone up.
But things are different now. Those people aren't the shady dealers from the black market anymore. If you really beat someone up, you'll end up in jail.
Fortunately, Huo Beixiao still had some sense, and they managed to stop the person in time.
"Dongzi, what do we do now? Should we still follow them?" Guo Tao asked Zhu Dong after finishing his reflection.
Zhu Dong hesitated for a moment, then made up his mind, "Let's go with him! Given the boss's current condition, it's dangerous for him to drive by himself. If we go with him, we can at least keep an eye on him."
After leaving the police station, Huo Beixiao was filled with remorse.
He even regretted investing in the shopping mall in the first place.
At that time, he felt that real estate and shopping malls were the future business opportunities that could make a lot of money, and his wife also liked money.
So he couldn't wait to invest, wanting to earn more money to give back to his wife.
If he had known this would happen, that his wife would sacrifice so much for him while pregnant, and that he would even lose her, he would have preferred to be just an ordinary worker at the cement factory.
He earns just enough to support his family each month and lives a peaceful life with his wife.
Huo Beixiao went to the duck products store and Yiren Clothing again to inquire, and learned that Yang Qiaoqiao still had not returned.
He was momentarily lost, unsure of where to look for someone.
Just then, a place suddenly appeared in his mind.
He quickly started the car.
When the car arrived at its destination, his heart was pounding with anxiety, as if it would jump out of his chest.
If my wife isn't here either, I really don't know where else to look for her.
Before getting off the bus, he took a deep breath to calm himself down.
After getting off the bus, he walked quickly toward their house in the cement factory's residential compound.
When he saw the door of the house they used to live in was open, he was overwhelmed with an indescribable surge of emotion.
When I arrived at the door, I saw the figure I had been longing for quietly placing a bunch of wildflowers into a vase.
Huo Beixiao felt a surge of heat in his eyes and quickly ran into the house.
He pulled the petite woman into a tight embrace.
He buried his head in Yang Qiaoqiao's neck, his voice muffled and full of grievance, "Wife, I thought you didn't want me anymore..."
Yang Qiaoqiao felt a mix of emotions.
She had imagined many possible scenarios when he came to find her.
She had imagined him looking at her coldly without saying a word, and she had imagined him questioning her, but she never imagined it would be like this.
He was not indifferent to her, nor did he question her.
He was just feeling wronged and afraid that she wouldn't want him anymore.
Yang Qiaoqiao's eyes welled up with tears.
After a long silence, she spoke in a somewhat hoarse voice, "I divorced you before because I was planning to get a marriage certificate with Qin Haiyang. Aren't you going to ask me why?"
