192. To avenge her.
Huo Yanxi pulled her to sit next to him, enjoying this moment of companionship.
"I'll write to you every day when we get back to Hong Kong."
Xie Yaoyao looked at him in confusion, "Write what?"
"Love letters are acceptable, as are love poems." Huo Yanxi picked up a brush and began writing on the invitation.
The strokes are strong and powerful, like iron hooks and silver lines.
Xie Yaoyao ground the ink while watching him write.
Huo Yanxi's fingers were long and slender, and the way he held the pen was very graceful, just like the handsome man himself.
Unrestrained and carefree.
Xie Yaoyao asked, "Do you write your own love poems?"
Huo Yanxi looked down at her. "Hmm, I can write it too. Will you accept it?"
Xie Yaoyao smiled radiantly, "Of course, this is President Huo's calligraphy."
It is the only one of its kind in the world.
It is quite meaningful to pass it down to future generations.
Huo Yanxi looked around to make sure no one was around, then leaned over and kissed her on the cheek.
Xie Yaoyao glared at her. "Don't kiss me all the time. It's not good if someone sees us."
Huo Yanxi turned back to continue writing the invitation, saying, "I just think you're cute and I want to kiss you."
Xie Yaoyao: "..."
She's so old, yet Huo Yanxi still praised her for being cute; she was truly embarrassed.
At this moment, Xie Ziyu ran out of the kitchen and came over when he saw them around the table.
He is much taller than other children his age, towering over them even when standing next to a table.
What are you writing?
Xie Yaoyao said, "Yubao, look how many characters you know."
Xie Ziyu looked at the invitation card that Huo Yanxi had just written, which was being placed next to him to dry the ink.
He read it out word by word, and surprisingly, he didn't misread a single one.
Huo Yanxi didn't know how many words other five-year-olds could recognize, but his son seemed to be a genius.
"Yubao, you know them all?"
Xie Ziyu said smugly, "Of course, I learned it from TV."
When Xie Ziyu was a child, Xie Yaoyao was busy with work, so she took him to school.
Some teachers at the school would help her tutor when they didn't have classes, teaching her some characters and arithmetic.
Later, when Xie Ziyu got a little older, kindergarten let out earlier, so Xie Yaoyao would lock him inside the house and turn on the TV for him.
She had no choice but to do this in order to make money.
Over the years, I've always felt guilty towards this child. I never imagined that he would learn so much while watching TV alone at home.
Huo Yanxi looked at Xie Yaoyao with bright eyes, "Manman, you gave me a child prodigy."
Xie Yaoyao's cheeks flushed slightly, and she felt a pang of guilt. "I didn't take good care of him. Aren't you angry with me?"
Huo Yanxi: "You raised the child alone, which is the hardest thing for you. If I have to blame someone, it's myself for not being involved in your pregnancy and childbirth, and even less so in Yu Bao's growth."
Xie Yaoyao's eyes welled up with tears.
Xie Ziyu quickly said, "Okay, okay, I'm all grown up now, you don't need to blame yourselves. If you really want to blame yourselves, then be nicer to me in the future."
Xie Yaoyao burst into laughter through her tears, "Haven't I been good enough to you?"
Xie Ziyu quickly showered her with compliments, "Mommy is the very, very best to me."
"At least you have a conscience."
After Huo Yanxi finished writing the invitation, he pulled Xie Ziyu aside and wanted to teach him calligraphy.
Xie Ziyu obediently followed along and learned quite well.
The family of three was enjoying a happy time together.
Just then, a familiar male voice rang out from outside the courtyard, "This is the right place, isn't it? I haven't come to the wrong place, have I?"
Xie Yaoyao recognized Pei Yan's voice and got up to walk outside.
Then Pei Yan appeared at the courtyard gate, looking travel-worn, and smiled when he saw her.
"I knew I had the right teacher, Teacher Xie. It's been a long time."
Xie Yaoyao in front of me seemed to have lost even more weight; her cheeks were sharper, and her waist was thinner.
Wearing a haute couture pink dress, she looked more beautiful than the flowers; there was no comparison to how she looked a few months ago.
"Teacher Xie is getting more and more beautiful. I didn't even recognize her at the door just now."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Huo Yanxi and quickly greeted him.
Huo Yanxi's expression was cold. "I thought I was no longer worthy of Secretary Pei's attention."
Pei Yan felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing that sarcastic tone. "How could that be? You're my god of wealth."
How could Pei Yan not coax him?
After all, he hadn't gotten his hands on the car he wanted yet, so he still had to appease the God of Wealth.
Huo Yanxi reached out and pulled Xie Yaoyao into his arms, displaying a possessive demeanor.
Pei Yan immediately understood why he was being sarcastic.
Oh dear, this man is so stingy, I can't bear to look at him!
Pei Yan said, "I brought the person you asked me to bring. She's outside. I didn't dare let her in and dirty this place."
Huo Yanxi frowned slightly.
Xie Yaoyao turned to look at him, "Huo Yanxi, who did you have Secretary Pei bring?"
"sinner."
Yesterday, Xie Yaoyao's crying scene broke Huo Yanxi's heart.
He immediately decided to seek justice for his wife.
Since he gave the Chi family a choice that they couldn't make, then he would play the villain.
Xie Yaoyao looked at Pei Yan with a puzzled expression. Pei Yan said, "Your husband feels sorry for you."
Huo Yanxi put his arm around Xie Yaoyao and walked out, saying, "Come on, I'll take you to get revenge."
Xie Yaoyao followed Huo Yanxi outside; the beach had already been cleared out.
Dozens of bodyguards set up a cordon and formed a human wall to block the tourists' view.
Xie Yaoyao stepped out of the courtyard and saw Chi Wanwan kneeling on the beach with her hair disheveled.
She was bound hand and foot, still wearing her pajamas, as if she had just been dragged off the bed.
When Chi Wanwan saw the houseboat, her expression turned ashen.
Seeing Huo Yanxi and Xie Yaoyao again, she struggled to get up and started cursing, but her mouth was sealed with plastic tape.
She glared at them resentfully, her eyes red as if they were about to shed tears of blood.
Xie Yaoyao frowned.
"Huo Yanxi, what is she doing here?"
Huo Yanxi had a chair brought out for Xie Yaoyao to sit on, and said, "Tear off the tape for her."
The bodyguard followed each instruction and action, forcefully tearing off the tape.
This is super adhesive tape, which was sealed on Chi Wanwan's lips all morning. Now it was violently ripped off, almost tearing the skin off her lips completely.
Chi Wanwan screamed in pain, wanting to curse but her mouth hurt, and she trembled with anger.
Huo Yanxi looked coldly at Chi Wanwan, "Miss Chi, do you recognize this place?"
Chi Wanwan shivered as he stared at her with his eerie black eyes.
Huo Yanxi is going to settle scores with her later.
Chi Wanwan certainly recognized this place. Back then, before the small fishing village was developed into a tourist attraction, it was deserted and uninhabited.
That night, she instructed her bodyguards to set fire to the houseboat on the dilapidated road behind it.
She heard the heart-wrenching barking of dogs from the houseboat and saw someone rush into the sea on fire and never come back up.
She thought she had eliminated all traces of the enemy, but to her surprise, Chi Xiaoman was still alive.
Not only is she alive, she also stole her engagement.
"I was too kind-hearted back then. I should have sent you to meet the King of Hell first, and then set fire to destroy the body and cover up the crime."
Xie Yaoyao lowered her eyes and stared at her, her hand already pressing the record button before she could even speak.
“Go on, I want to see how many heartless and despicable things you’ve done.”
