Chapter 194 Her Heart
At the center of all this is Shi Nian.
She also took a big gulp of wine at that moment, feeling very happy about this success.
And he said quite a lot, making the atmosphere very lively.
Although it's not the final victory, it's still a good start.
This reassured her somewhat.
After dancing with Fu Jinyan and Lin Zhihuan for a while, she returned to Sisi's side.
Huo Yanmo, who was standing to the side, handed her things and occasionally looked after Sisi.
Sisi was also very happy, eating in her baby chair while talking to Huo Yanmo.
"Uncle Mo, I'm like other kids now, so can I visit your house to see your cat more often?" Sisi asked expectantly.
"The video Uncle Yao showed me last time, saying that Mimi had learned something new, I haven't had a chance to watch it yet."
Huo Yanmo wiped the rice grains from Sisi's mouth and said gently, "Sure, you can talk to your Aunt Xiaonian later and then go play with Mimi."
Sisi immediately looked at Shi Nian, who was standing to the side, with a longing look on her face.
Sisi is increasingly treating her like family and is slowly beginning to accept her.
Shi Nian was happy about Si Si's change.
So she pinched Sisi's round little face and said, "Of course you can go see it if you like, Sisi. You are my daughter, so you don't need to be polite with me."
Huo Yanmo, who was standing to the side, nodded and said, "Me too."
Sisi's big, dark eyes darted back and forth between the two of them, then she smiled and her eyes crinkled into crescent moons.
“Okay!” Sisi said crisply.
...
While everyone was having a good time, on the other side, Lu Yanzhi and Han Wei had just finished dinner, and Lu Yanzhi was driving Han Wei home.
An eerie silence fell between the two.
Finally, the car stopped downstairs at Han Wei's building.
Han Wei did not immediately get out of the car and go upstairs.
"Brother Yanzhi," Han Wei suddenly spoke.
Lu Yanzhi lowered his eyes slightly, waiting for her to continue speaking.
“I heard it from Secretary Zhou,” Han Wei continued, “The Lu family has already severed ties with me.”
"Mm," Lu Yanzhi responded, looking out the car window at the scenery.
Then there was another silence.
"Brother Yanzhi, are you disgusted with me?" Han Wei's voice came from behind.
Lu Yanzhi withdrew his gaze and took out a document from the side, handing it to Han Wei.
Han Wei took it with a puzzled look and opened it to read.
“The risks of ‘Wei Ai’ are too great; the Lu family cannot afford to take those risks,” Lu Yanzhi said. “This was found by Secretary Zhou. It’s a project that’s quite suitable for your new project, and it can be combined with your studio.”
Han Wei simply tossed the document aside.
“I don’t want to,” she said.
Lu Yanzhi felt a headache coming on.
He didn't understand why Han Wei was so fixated on "Wei Ai".
With so many hidden dangers looming ahead, Han Wei seemed to be bewitched.
However, he doesn't need to know.
"Choose one of the two," Lu Yanzhi said.
Han Wei was furious.
She glared angrily at Lu Yanzhi, who remained calm on the side.
"Yanzhi, don't you want to work hard for our wedding?" Han Wei said. "Everything I'm doing now is for you and me."
However, Lu Yanzhi simply stared calmly ahead without saying a word.
"Are you looking down on me because you see Shi Nian's success today?"
Han Wei's eyes were red: "But you also know that it was Huo Yanmo who helped her."
Lu Yanzhi pursed his lips.
"Yanzhi-ge," Han Wei said, crying, "she's already with someone else, are you still going to side with her?"
"And what about me?"
“Brother Yanzhi…” Han Wei coughed and said, “I know I’m impatient, but I… really don’t have time.”
"Brother Yanzhi, I really, really want to have a wedding with you."
Han Wei was in tears, looking pitiful.
Lu Yanzhi turned his head and looked at Han Wei's tearful face.
Finally, he sighed deeply, then took a tissue from the side and wiped away her tears.
"Don't cry," he said.
He noticed that Han Wei was still looking at him.
Lu Yanzhi said, "We are already divorced."
Han Wei grasped Lu Yanzhi's hand: "Brother Yanzhi, you love me, don't you?"
Lu Yanzhi did not answer immediately; his lips were pressed tightly together.
Looking at Han Wei and listening to her talk about "love," he saw Shi Nian's face instead.
Thinking of how happy she looked when she was with Huo Yanmo, she was consumed by jealousy.
He's really crazy.
...
On the other side.
The celebration banquet has ended.
Huo Yanmo escorted Shi Nian and Sisi back home.
Sisi hugged them both in turn before going inside.
Looking at Sisi's back, Shi Nian felt a strong urge to finish the formalities as soon as possible.
But we still need to wait and see.
"Let's go, it's alright. I've already arranged for medical staff to be here, so don't worry," Huo Yanmo said, looking at her worried profile.
Shi Nian nodded.
Actually, she knew it too.
Perhaps it's because I just had a little bit of alcohol and my emotions are a bit affected.
The two turned around, and the driver was waiting for them in the car.
"Let's take a walk," Huo Yanmo said, noticing her bad mood.
Shi Nian responded with an "Mm".
She really wanted to go for a walk.
Under the dim streetlights, the shadows of the trees were long, and the shadows of the two people were also stretched very long.
Neither of them said anything; he simply stayed quietly by her side.
He told her to stop after walking for an unknown amount of time.
"Your shoelaces are untied," he said, then knelt down and reached out to tie them for her.
Shi Nian tried to stop him, but he had already grabbed her shoelaces.
Shi Nian looked at his serious profile and the way he looked with his head down.
He always had such a gentle demeanor, as if he could tolerate everything.
Sisi and he have a very good relationship.
Under the streetlights, everything was bathed in a yellowish hue.
He will treat Sisi well.
I kept thinking about it.
"Okay," Huo Yanmo said, wiping his hands with a handkerchief, then looked up and met her gaze.
He didn't stand up immediately, but remained kneeling on one knee, looking up at her.
Then, he frowned slightly.
“Nian Nian,” he said.
"Hmm?" she replied.
“I don’t want you to accept me because of Sisi,” he said.
Shi Nian lowered his eyes slightly, and he guessed her thoughts again.
He reached out and touched her face, making her look at him.
He remained kneeling on one knee, looking up at her.
"Niannian, I want you to love me."
He said, "I want you to see me."
"It's not because of Sisi, it's not because of the bet."
His eyes were dark and deep.
He said, "Niannian, not because of anything else, I hope that you see me and love me in your eyes and heart, Huo Yanmo."
A gentle breeze blew by as Shi Nian looked at the man squatting below her.
Her heart seemed to be gently stirred by the breeze.
