Chapter 65 Nightmare
Huo Yunting's blunt refusal froze Xia Menghua's expression.
But she still tried to maintain her composure. She smiled, but her smile was extremely cold. As expected of her surname Huo, she had learned all the arrogance and contempt for others from her family.
Since this can't shake him, the only thing I can do is to defeat him from the heart.
Xia Menghua was unhurried, lowering her eyes as she adjusted her fingers, her voice returning to its usual gentleness. "Grandma doesn't want to worry about what's going on between you two, but don't you find it strange? Grandma is forcing you to divorce because of a deal between Shen Nanxing and me."
Xia Menghua emphasized the word "transaction" and raised his voice a lot.
Hearing this, Huo Yunting's hands trembled. This was completely beyond his expectations.
Since divorce didn't work for him, she sought external help?
Or his grandmother?
The knife handed to him by his relatives was indeed cruel, piercing his heart and causing it to bleed profusely.
OK!
"Take it." Xia Menghua walked up to him and handed him the thing.
The five big words "Divorce Agreement" stung his eyes so much that they hurt.
Huo Yunting stretched out his hand and tried to grab it, but at the critical moment his hand loosened and the paper fell lightly to his feet.
The corners of his mouth curled up, "Grandma, the person who can force me to do something hasn't been born yet."
In the end, she was crushed under the man's feet.
"You..." Xia Menghua was very angry, but couldn't say anything to refute.
After a few seconds of stalemate, she took a deep breath and tried to calm down.
"Yun Ting, don't be naive." Xia Menghua looked at him dissatisfiedly, "One day, you will know that I am doing this for your own good."
Xia Menghua turned and left. Finally, she looked back at the Huo family villa, which was a hundred years old. It was dark and there was no sign of life.
Huo Yunting was hidden in the darkness, the light in his eyes dim and unclear.
What a tricky man.
In order to escape from him, Huo Yunting didn't expect that Shen Nanxing would choose to cooperate with his grandmother. Apart from anger, he couldn't feel any emotions.
"Shen Nanxing! Stop struggling in vain!" Huo Yunting clenched his fists, "Even if you want to leave, it's not your turn to think about it before me!"
late at night.
Faintly, Shen Nanxing seemed to dream again of the day when she first met Huo Yunting.
In the dream, even breathing was heavy.
Her accidental intrusion shocked both the kidnappers and the rescue special police team hiding nearby. Both sides thought that the other side had already started to act.
The rescue plan deployed by the special police had to be brought forward.
Amidst the sound of gunfire, a pistol was kicked to Shen Nanxing's feet.
By then, the atmosphere had reached an irreparable point.
The kidnappers had their guns pointed at Huo Yunting's parents' heads, wanting to vent their anger on the hostages' lives. In desperation, Shen Nanxing, completely out of kindness, wanted to help the hostages and shot the kidnappers.
But no one expected that the person who was hit was Huo Yunting's mother.
Until then, Shen Nanxing always felt sorry for Huo Yunting until they met again at his engagement ceremony with He Xiaowen.
Fate completely tied them together.
"ah!"
Shen Nanxing woke up with a scream. The moment she sat up, she saw Huo Yunting's face so close to her, and she was almost scared out of her wits.
She shrank to the corner of the bed again and again, trying to stay away from him.
"Are you scared?" Huo Yunting's cold eyes fell on her, as if he was wondering about something.
"Having a nightmare?"
Huo Yunting came over and wanted to question her about what happened between her and her grandmother, but seeing her pitiful appearance, he couldn't bear to question her here.
We can only postpone this matter.
Huo Yunting looked at her. There was a distance between them, but he could clearly feel the other person's slightly trembling breathing.
She seemed to be filled with fear and a mixture of emotions.
Looking at that beautiful yet frightening face, Ana Shen clenched his hands, his eyes were deep, with a hint of complexity in them.
Looking at that face, tears rolled in Ana Shen’s eyes, but she didn’t dare to let them fall.
"I...I..." She was speechless, with fear in her eyes, "No, no..."
"If you didn't, why did you keep saying sorry in the dream?"
Huo Yunting's indifferent voice made Shen Nanxing's expression freeze.
Ana Shen knew that if there was no reasonable explanation for this matter, given this man's character, he would definitely get to the bottom of it.
But judging from the current situation, he probably doesn't know this secret.
Ana Shen sniffed, suppressed the fear in his heart, and dodged his gaze. “Today is the anniversary of my adoptive mother’s death. I’m a little sad, so…”
Speaking of this, she couldn't help wiping away tears.
She didn't expect that her adoptive mother, who had been so kind to her during her lifetime, would be able to help her on her death anniversary.
The bitterness in my heart became even worse.
When mentioning this person, Huo Yunting's eyes looked a little deeper, and he looked away silently after falling on her.
However, Ana Shen didn't notice it.
"It's all in the past. It's better not to think too much about such sad things, especially since you are in poor health now." Huo Yunting offered symbolic comfort.
Everyone understands the truth.
Shen Nanxing stammered, with many words stuck in his throat and unable to come out.
Thinking of the scene in the dream, Shen Nanxing's expression suddenly became panic. She didn't dare to think about that scene, let alone think that one day Huo Yunting knew the truth...
Now, the only way to avoid those misfortunes is to get a divorce and run away.
She complained inwardly for a long time before finally uttering a probing question, "On the anniversary of your parents' death, don't you hate those who kidnapped them?"
Her voice became weaker and weaker, and by the end it was almost inaudible.
Despite this, she still insisted on finishing her speech.
Huo Yunting's face darkened visibly. Shen Nanxing had given up hope that he would respond, but unexpectedly, the next second, the man's voice reached his ears.
"Why do you hate me?" Huo Yunting seemed puzzled by her question. "I watched them become fish food with my own eyes. The moment the pond water turned red was breathtakingly beautiful."
He spoke calmly, but his eyes lingered on her face with interest, as if wondering why she asked these questions.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
His eyes narrowed slightly, "Don't you want to know more details?"
Ana Shen was so frightened that he kept shaking his head.
She thought he would be angry, even furious, but she didn't expect him to react like this!
If he discovered the truth one day, the means he would use against her would not be any lighter than this.
Huo Yunting stared at her, his expression suddenly becoming serious, "Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden?"
Realizing that the other party’s voice had turned cold, Ana Shen’s heart beat violently.
"No, nothing." She stammered in fear.
"Really?" Huo Yunting refused to let go of the expression on her face, trying to find evidence of her abnormal behavior.
"Yeah." Ana Shen nodded, trying to make herself look sincere.
He stared at her face, knowing she was hiding her true self.
I have to say, she is quite cute when she pretends to be stupid.
