Chapter 144 I heard that you two are getting a divorce. Is that true?

Shang Wanwan's eyes were red. Huo Dongming stared at her beautiful face. The tearful expression in her big eyes instantly disappeared.

"Wanwan——"

He lowered his voice, and his usual arrogance disappeared without a trace.

"Grandpa has woken up. I want to take you to see him."

Shang Wanwan didn't want to pay attention to him. If it weren't for the old man, she really wanted to chase him away herself.

"Wait for me, I'm going to change my clothes."

Shang Wanwan noticed that his eyes kept lingering on her collar, and then she realized that the clothes she wore at home before were all low-cut pajamas that clearly exposed her cleavage.

Many of them are translucent because Huo Dongming likes to look at them.

Her ears felt hot, and she quickly grabbed her clothes and went upstairs.

At first, Mrs. Zhang was worried that the couple was going to argue again, but Mr. Huo actually braked halfway.

She also felt at ease to do other things. Although her husband had left, Aunt Zhang was still a servant of the Huo family.

Since her husband is not around, she also wants to follow his wife.

She was afraid that she would not be used to being alone, so if anything else happened, she could immediately inform her husband and ask him to come back.

The husband and wife were used to quarreling after marriage, and she had seen it a lot.

The two of them were sulking and quarreling like children.

In Zhang's mother's view, the more people care about each other, the more they hurt each other, and there is constant emotional friction.

A couple who truly have no feelings for each other, such as her and her ex-husband, treated each other with respect all year round, never quarreled, and even said "please" when eating out. However, they ended up breaking up after signing the divorce papers, and they no longer had any contact even though they had children.

Shang Wanwan returned upstairs and found that the closet was now full of her clothes, and half of the closet was empty.

She took out a beige sweater that she liked. Shang Wanwan always had an indelible love for light colors, just like her, with a kind of clear beauty.

Her long black hair was draped over her back, and she pinned it up with an exquisite hairpin, which made her look simple and gentle.

Just when she was putting the sweater on, a loose thread came out of the hairpin. She turned around instinctively and her eyes met the eyes of Huo Dongming who followed her in silently.

Shang Wanwan stood there in shock and fear, probably because she didn't expect him to follow her. She was at a loss as to what to do. She was only half-dressed and hadn't even had time to choose her underwear. Her breasts were half exposed, so she didn't know whether to cover them or not...

Huo Dongming looked down, and Shang Wanwan felt very embarrassed.

"Don't move, your hair is caught. If you keep messing around, your clothes will get ruined."

He stepped forward, and Shang Wanwan thought he would help her untie herself, but his hands touched her body instead, his fingertips slowly moved up along her waistline, and his chin rested on her neck and shoulder.

Shang Wanwan's heart was beating like a drum. They were both adults, and had been married for more than three years. She knew what he was thinking without even having to think about it.

He hugged her from behind and could clearly feel her body becoming stiff. He immediately slowed down his move, which was about to go further.

She was still afraid of him, and this realization made Huo Dongming very sad.

"Relax, don't be nervous. I promise not to touch you until your body is ready for me again."

His body was pressed so tightly against hers that she could feel the warmth through his clothes and his natural physiological reactions.

Although very excited, Shang Wanwan had no interest at all and was just afraid.

The memory of that night was too horrifying.

No one could do that to someone who hurt them and act as if nothing had happened, at least she couldn't do it now.

Huo Dongming's voice became softer and his movements slower.

He gave up the erotic touch and instead untied her tangled hair and put her sweater down.

The two of them were still pressed very close together, Huo Dongming's lips pressed against the soft flesh of her ear, his voice almost sounding like begging.

"Wanwan, please forgive me, okay?"

He dressed her, turned her body over and pressed her into his arms.

His voice was deep and pleasant, with a gentleness he had never had before, whispering and whispering in her ear like a lover.

Shang Wanwan developed resistance to him in her heart, and she had formed an instinct to reject him.

"Huo Dongming, it's getting late, stop dawdling."

Her voice was hoarse, her eyes were staring blankly ahead, and her heart was calm.

It was clear that she didn't want to go any further with him.

Some things are done and done, just as he had always believed that she had schemed against him. Over the years, she had tried many things to make up for it, but he had never given her any chance.

Shang Wanwan will never mention the past again. There are still 29 days left and their marriage will enter the countdown. Perhaps after the divorce, it will be a permanent farewell and they will never see each other again.

The truth of the matter is not important, nor is forgiveness or non-forgiveness.

Living apart from each other and not disturbing each other is the most satisfactory answer to the past three years of getting along with each other.

Huo Dongming let her go, and his bony hands dug deep into her black hair, trying to kiss her.

Shang Wanwan turned her face away.

"That's enough. If you keep doing this, I won't go to Grandpa's with you. I have legs and a car, so I can go by myself."

Huo Dongming's hands dropped weakly. Shang Wanwan turned around, kept a distance from him, and went downstairs first.

…

At the hospital entrance, Shang Wanwan got out of the car and Huo Dongming opened the door for her.

Before she stepped into the hospital, he quickly stepped forward and held her hand.

Shang Wanwan wanted to break away, but Huo Dongming's eyes darkened slightly.

"Do you want Grandpa to find out we're getting a divorce?"

Shang Wanwan raised the corners of her lips slightly, with a hint of sarcasm on her face.

"As for your uncles and brothers, I'm afraid that as soon as Grandpa wakes up, he will tell them about our divorce."

Huo Dongming still didn't let go.

"Seeing is believing and can dispel all rumors and slanders."

He pulled her all the way to the ward. Yuan Yi also came, and when she saw the two of them coming in hand in hand, her brows slightly frowned, and the unhappiness in her eyes was about to overflow.

The old man woke up and was sitting up. The nurse had just finished feeding him medicine.

"Grandpa——"

Shang Wanwan and Huo Dongming spoke at the same time. Seeing that they were still in love, the old man's sick face actually brightened up.

The old man shifted his gaze to Yuan Yi and his sons and nephews beside the bed.

"Everyone, get out. I have something to say to Dong Ming and his wife."

Huo Dongming's uncles and brothers left reluctantly, and Yuan Yi was angry.

They said they were divorced yesterday, but today they are holding hands again. What is going on?

"Sit down, tell me, what's going on between you two recently, Dong Ming, and what's the problem with the cooperation between our Huo family and Chen family?"

What the old man cared about most was this cooperation. When he heard that it failed, he fell ill on the spot.

Before Huo Dongming could speak, Shang Wanwan said lightly.

"I talked to Mrs. Chen, and she said it was a misunderstanding and she would contact us at Huo's to sign the contract again."

Shang Wanwan cannot repay kindness with enmity. In order to consolidate her position in the Huo family, her father gave her shares, allowing her to have a say in the Huo family, and no one can really drive her away.

"Is that so?"

The old man spoke in a stern tone, but he was looking at Huo Dongming.

"Tomorrow, Chen and Huo will hold a press conference to announce their cooperation. This matter has been finalized, Grandpa, don't worry."

The old man was relieved to know that his grandson would not lie to him.

"Now let's talk about the two of you. Your two uncles, your aunt, your uncle, your aunt, and even your mother all said that the two of you were planning on getting a divorce. Is that true?"
