Chapter 216 Regret and pain spread infinitely
After Jiang Qin finished her words, she no longer looked at Huo Sili, but looked at Su Lejia who was coming over from a distance. After hearing her daughter's clear voice, she raised her eyes again and looked at the man in front of her.
But it was only a moment, and Jiang Qin looked away.
Are you crying? What does it have to do with her?
But Jiang Qin would naturally respond to her daughter's words, and she was still very gentle when responding, just saying "hmm" and "yes".
Then he turned around and looked behind.
Song Xinye and others came over later.
Jiang Qin looked at Song Xinye, "Then Brother Song, let's go."
He then looked at Su Lejia, who was standing at the door, facing Huo Sili, and was obviously a little timid.
Holding her daughter in her arms, she strode towards her best friend.
Seeing Jiang Qin striding towards her, Su Lejia no longer cared what her ex-husband next to her thought.
He immediately strode forward.
Tiantian turned her head and looked at Su Lejia's face. She smiled happily and reached out for a hug: "Auntie!"
Su Lejia's heart melted at once, "Hey! Come, let auntie hold you, let mommy take a break."
"Okay~" During the past three years, Su Lejia lived abroad for a long time and only returned to China two days ago. In Tiantian's world, Su Lejia is a very close relative.
Actually, you can't drive the car so close here. Zhou Junxuan went to park the car and is not here at the moment.
Su Lejia held Tiantian in her arms and walked side by side with Jiang Qin in front. Behind them, Song Xinye led a group of people and followed quickly with their luggage.
When Zhou Junxuan parked the car and came over to help with the luggage, he saw this scene. Behind him were Carlos and Aunt Zhou, whom he had met abroad before, so he was unable to help at all.
He felt a little embarrassed, and then he noticed that there was his ex-husband standing at the door, who seemed even more embarrassed than him.
Finally, he turned around and went back to driving.
The two sisters in front were chatting happily, and a group of people followed closely behind them, with an obvious protective attitude.
When He Xu rushed over from the company after finishing his work, he happened to see this scene.
Oh, to be precise, it's more than that - it's early December now, the temperature in Kyoto has dropped very cold, and it even snowed heavily this morning.
When he drove over, coincidentally, he ran into Song Xinye who was walking behind him.
He took out a women's coat from the luggage bag he was carrying.
Put it on Jiang Qin.
Jiang Qin pulled her coat closer, turned to Song Xinye and said something with a smile, and judging from her lip movements, she seemed to be saying "thank you, Brother Song".
He Xu suddenly felt a chill in his head.
Finished!
The car came to a complete stop, and then he turned his head to look at the man standing next to the conspicuous Cullinan at the door, who had also turned his head to look at the man.
From the dim light in Huo Sili's eyes, it is not difficult to judge that Huo Sili definitely took in everything that happened just now.
"..." He Xu was stunned.
Bang.
The next second, even more Buddhist, Huo Sili, who had agreed to wait for him and let him drive, got into the car alone again.
Not only did he drive out, he also followed behind the car where Su Lejia, Jiang Qin and others were sitting!
He Xuxin almost jumped out.
No, this tracking can't be so obvious and blatant, right?
But I thought of something and felt a little relieved.
Since learning that his wife was still alive, Mr. Huo's condition has been getting better day by day. In the past three years, Mr. Huo has been having physical examinations. In the second year after learning that his wife was still alive, Mr. Huo was diagnosed with severe depression.
It had gone from making Mr. Lu unable to help but speak softly to him out of pity at a glance, to becoming mild - now that Mr. Lu had read Mr. Huo's diagnosis report, he dared to yell at him again.
In short, Mr. Huo is basically recovered.
However, because he had witnessed Horsley's mental state when he had an attack many times in the past two years, He Xu developed the habit of following Horsley and not daring to let Horsley drive.
Jiang Qin naturally had no idea about these.
But even if she knew it now, she wouldn't care.
…
The temperature dropped and snowed heavily, making the road slippery and icy. The traffic in Kyoto was as heavy as usual, and the car stopped and started frequently. It took nearly two hours to reach the destination that should have taken an hour at most.
The car stopped at a villa, the address of which was given by Song Xinye.
In fact, we had planned to go to Su Lejia and Zhou Junxuan’s new house to get together after getting off the plane today to add some popularity to the new house, but the number of people coming back this time was really beyond the original plan, plus Huo Sili was following behind the car.
Jiang Qin didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble for Su Lejia, so Song Xinye took the initiative to tell her the address and said that he had already arranged it in advance. He was originally worried that the plane would be delayed and he would be hungry and not be able to eat a meal that suits his appetite.
He specifically told people to buy the food early today, and asked a star chef to go over and cook. He made a phone call on the way, and the other party started cooking.
After thinking about it, Su Lejia and Zhou Junxuan had no objection. After all, it was a new house and they had to pray for some good luck. It was okay to have a lot of people, but it would be a shame if her ex-husband went with them.
It’s really unlucky when you think about it.
After all, the ex-husband, wasn’t that an unhappy marriage, and the ex-husband was quite powerful.
Although they also knew that if Horsley was determined to investigate, the privacy of ordinary people like them would be exposed in a matter of minutes.
But, one thing is for another, if I follow him like this, I'm afraid that one day my ex-husband will get drunk and drive over to their building to wait for him based on muscle memory.
This kind of situation has happened before in the past three years.
However, Su Lejia felt that it was too unlucky, and seeing that her best friend was finally "alive" and so energetic, she did not tell Jiang Qin about these bad things.
The car drove into the villa, a group of people put their things away, and started chatting lively.
A black Cullinan was also parked outside the villa, but because the villa was large, the decoration materials should have been specially selected to be soundproof, so the sounds inside could hardly be heard outside.
Huo Sili got out of the car, and He Xu drove over from behind.
He quickly followed him down and was about to say something when Horsley suddenly turned around and looked at him.
"What do I look like now?"
He Xu was puzzled: "What?"
Horsley twitched his lips and mocked himself, "I really look like a rat in the gutter."
The head of the Huo family privately said that he was like a rat in the gutter.
Only He Xu, his confidant, could understand this. If it was accidentally spread to others, others would laugh when they heard it.
But at this moment He Xu couldn't laugh, because, let's be honest, they really did look a bit alike.
They once had such a close relationship, but now I can only stand outside the iron gate like a thief, staring inside from such a distance.
Unfortunately, I can’t see anything.
He Xu sighed, but sorry, he couldn't say anything to comfort her.
After all, isn't it Mr. Huo who has brought this upon himself?
But then again, he seemed to have seen Miss Su holding a little girl in her arms just now.
He Xu thought about this and couldn't help wondering, because of his wife, Mr. Huo had been secretly helping Miss Su and Mr. Zhou in the past three years, hoping that they could live a good life.
However, he hadn't heard that Miss Su and Mr. Zhou suddenly had a baby, and it's so big now, not a baby, but should be two years old, right?
While I was still thinking, I suddenly heard Horsley talking to himself.
"I'm damned."
He Xu was shocked and almost thought that this gentleman was sick again.
I quickly thought, how could this be possible? My wife is still alive and well. The incident has already passed.
Suddenly, he met Horsley's red eyes, and the man's voice was hoarse from sobbing.
"Qinqin is pregnant with my child, He Xu. Three years ago, she faked her death while pregnant. She... I even told her at the time that I would personally take her to have an abortion. She must have hated me."
"Did you see that?"
"My and Qinqin's daughter is so cute, how could I say such a jerk to her?"
He Xu was speechless for a long while.
But it dawned on me in an instant.
So that's it. The little girl was not Miss Su and Mr. Zhou's child, but the wife's.
He said that the little girl looked very familiar and didn't look like Miss Su or Mr. Zhou.
And the ages don’t match. A colleague at the company has a child. I brought him out to a party before, and he happened to be a little girl.
He Xu therefore had some basic knowledge about the two-year-old girl and knew approximately how tall she was.
He was wondering why the ages didn’t match, it turned out that was his future little ancestor!
Oh no, what should I say now?
Mr. Huo, this, this, is this really all over?
Given the wife's temper, it is probably true that it will be difficult for her to accept Mr. Huo again.
After all, when He Xu looked into the villa, although he could hardly see the scene inside, he could smell the aroma of food coming from inside with the wind, and occasionally hear the cheerful laughter of little girls who were amused.
Glancing at Huo Sili again, He Xu opened his phone and took a look.
"Boss Huo, it's getting late, we..."
"You go back." Horsley said, "I want to stay here for a while."
He Xu didn't quite agree, but didn't refute directly. Instead, he reminded, "Mr. Huo, the temperature will drop tonight and it will be very cold. It's not safe for you to stay here..."
Without giving him a chance to finish, Huo Sili returned to his cold and icy demeanor as before Jiang Qin left him. "When did you become so talkative?"
He Xu: “…” Aren’t I just worried about you?
Forget it, feeling sorry for a man will bring you bad luck for the rest of your life.
This is the truth, you must believe it.
He Xu drove away.
As the night deepened, a flake of snow began to fall.
Horsley stood in the snow, looking at the brightly lit courtyard and smelling the aroma of vegetables and meat wafting from inside.
Suddenly my memory seemed to come back to me, and I remembered a poem I learned when I was a child.
The rich have wine and meat, but the poor freeze to death on the streets.
At this moment, Horsley had a shameful fantasy that if he really froze to death, she would be sad for him.
Even for a moment, but judging from reality, Jiang Qin's world seemed to be getting better and better without Huo Sili.
It was not until this moment that Horsley realized how big a mistake he had made.
Inside the house, Tiantian had eaten and drunk her fill, and Song Xinye added two more coats and a plush hat before allowing the little girl to come out to play.
From a distance, Tiantian looked at Huo Sili strangely for a long time, then ran back into the house and held Song Xinye's hand.
"Uncle, uncle, that weird uncle is still standing outside. It's snowing so heavily. Do you have a blanket?"
Song Xinye found it a little funny and bent over to pick up Tiantian.
I thought it would be nice to freeze to death.
In the end, he fulfilled his niece's wish.
Holding Tiantian in one hand and carrying a blanket in the other, Song Xinye walked to the door.
despair.
The wrought iron gate opened, and under the street light, Song Xinye handed the blanket to Huo Sili.
Tiantian looked at this strange uncle curiously, and when Horsley looked at her with tearful eyes, she hugged her uncle tightly.
"Mommy, I miss mommy, uncle, Tiantian wants to hear mommy tell stories."
"Okay, uncle will take Tiantian in to find mom." Song Xinye closed the door, without giving any extra glances, he carried his little niece into the house, turned around and strode into the bright house.
The street lights were dim, and the shadows of the surrounding tree branches were reflected on the snow. Compared with the bright villa in the courtyard, the outside world seemed desolate, dark and cold.
Horsley pinched the blanket in his hand, his fingers trembling with surprise and pain.
Of course he heard it clearly. The little girl just called Song Xinye "uncle", not "dad".
When they were in love, she said that if they had children one day, she hoped he would be a good father.
If she can't do that, she will definitely get a divorce.
But that year, he told her that they would not have children, and later, he said those nonsense.
The blanket was wet, not sure if it was tears or snow. On this snowy night, regret and pain spread infinitely in Horsley's body and mind.
Until dawn.
