On the way home from the hospital with the children, they met Huo Xuewen who was rushing over.
He looked tired and had a circle of blue stubble on his chin.
Chenchen was the first to see him and shouted happily, "Dad! Dad is here!"
Huo Xuewen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw his expression. He quickly walked over, took the child from Ning Shaoyun's arms, and looked at him carefully. "Are you sick? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Chenchen put his arm around his neck and said happily, "Just take the medicine and it will be fine. No need for injections!"
Huo Xuewen took the temperature on his forehead and turned to Ning Shaoyun, "Thank you for your hard work. What did the doctor say?"
"It's nothing serious. Just take your medicine on time, drink plenty of water and rest." Ning Shaoyun asked, "Why are you here?"
Huo Xuewen said, "I just got off the train and heard that Chenchen was sick."
Ning Shaoyun just said "hmm" and didn't ask him how he knew.
Huo Xuewen followed behind silently, holding Chenchen.
Xia Mian looked at him curiously.
According to what Ning Shaobai said before, Huo Xuewen must have lost a lot of money by selling the land in Hainan at a low price in order to avenge Chenchen;
Moreover, now that his life experience has been revealed, the Huo family has been thrown into chaos by Director Luo's influence and has no time to care about him at all.
His current situation should be very bad. An ordinary person would probably be devastated, but his mental state is much better than before.
Xia Mian noticed it, and Ning Shaoyun certainly knew it better.
After returning home from parting with Xia Wenyue and Xia Mian, Ning Shaoyun hesitated for a moment before asking, "How have you been lately?"
Huo Xuewen patted Chenchen's head and said, "It's much better than I thought. I don't need to work hard to please them. It's very easy."
He always thought that Huo Pengyi and Hu Cuihua's indifference was because he had not done well enough, so he kept working so hard, but he didn't expect that it would turn out to be such a joke in the end.
Huo Xuewen looked at Ning Shaoyun and Chenchen. Fortunately, in his ridiculous life, he still had two treasures...
Ning Shaoyun sighed with mixed feelings, "What are your plans for the future?"
"Go back and recognize your parents first," Huo Xuewen said, "and then use the remaining capital to start some business. I'll definitely give it to Chenchen and..."
Having said that, he paused and continued, "Earn a fortune."
He stroked Chenchen's back and said, "I've already felt very sorry for him before."
Chenchen turned his head in confusion, "Dad?"
"Yeah." Huo Xuewen pinched his son's little face, a gentle smile appearing on the corner of his mouth. "I hope our Chenchen can grow up as he pleases and do whatever he wants."
Instead of being like him, overwhelmed by reality and unable to even protect his wife and children.
Chenchen's eyes lit up slightly. He glanced at Ning Shaoyun secretly and whispered in Huo Xuewen's ear, "Dad, I want to fly a plane."
His latest Lego puzzle is an airplane.
Huo Xuewen's eyes were full of determination. "Well, wait until Dad makes money to buy you a plane, but it may take some time. Can you wait for Dad?"
Chenchen nodded.
Ning Shaoyun couldn't help but frown, "Don't promise him so easily, you now..."
"Xiao Yun," Huo Xuewen said solemnly, "From now on, I will do everything I promised him."
Ning Shaoyun met his gaze, and Huo Xuewen whispered, "Although I am no longer the eldest master of the Huo family, I am still Chenchen's father..." Your admirer.
"For him," and you.
"I'll start over too."
Start learning to love again, learn to protect again, and find back the treasures that he lost.
Ning Shaoyun was speechless.
The sound of a cell phone ringing interrupted the somewhat silent atmosphere. Huo Xuewen looked at the caller ID and answered the phone with a serious expression:
"Yes, I'm Huo Xuewen."
“…”
"Hello, police officer."
“…”
"The North City Project? That project was handed over more than a month ago. It's not under my jurisdiction."
“…”
"Okay, I understand. I will cooperate."
See him hang up the phone.
Ning Shaoyun couldn't help but frown and asked, "What's going on? What happened to the Chengbei project?"
Huo Xuewen said, "It was the police who called and said something happened with the Chengbei project."
Seeing Ning Shaoyun's worry, he comforted her, "It's okay, the police just asked me to cooperate with the investigation."
After thinking for a moment, he began to explain carefully, "Dad... Huo Pengyi has given Huo Yuanlong a lot of power since last year."
"At the time, I didn't think much of it, and didn't take it to heart. It wasn't until Xiaobai reminded me that I found out that he had planted many of his current relatives and friends in that project to cut corners and make money."
"I was busy collecting evidence to deal with those people some time ago, but the project was taken back before I could finish it..."
"You know everything that happened afterwards..."
Ning Shaoyun thought for a moment and said, "So it must be Huo Yuanlong who caused the trouble this time?"
"I guess so," Huo Xuewen laughed at himself, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, "The old man probably wants me to take the blame for his own son."
Ning Shaoyun frowned worriedly, "Then you..."
"It's okay," Huo Xuewen said, "I collected a lot of evidence before, and it all comes in handy now."
Ning Shaoyun felt relieved. "No matter what, be careful."
Huo Xuewen looked at her and suddenly said, "I'm sorry, I should have communicated with you more before."
Obviously, saying more would stop her from worrying too much, but he always felt that she didn't need to worry about things outside. Not saying anything would make her feel insecure.
So much so that the two of them had almost nothing to say to each other.
Ning Shaoyun lowered her eyelids to hide the emotions in her eyes, "It's okay, it's all in the past."
Huo Xuewen didn't say anything else, stood up and said, "I have to go."
Ning Shaoyun reached out to take Chenchen over, and Huo Xuewen suddenly took a step closer and hugged her tightly in his arms.
Ning Shaoyun was about to struggle when she heard Huo Xuewen say softly, "Let me hold you for a while." He needed to gain some strength.
Ning Shaoyun sighed secretly and did not move.
Fortunately, Huo Xuewen quickly let go, rubbed Chenchen's head and said, "Dad has something to do and left first. I will come to see you in a few days."
Chenchen nodded, "Dad, next Friday is Xiaofeng's birthday, will you come?"
Huo Xuewen thought about it carefully and said, "Next Friday? Sure, Dad will come to see you then."
Chenchen nodded happily, just like before, he just received a message but didn't have complete trust.
Huo Xuewen rubbed his soft hair: His best life has been ruined by other people's selfishness, but fortunately he still has people worth fighting and working hard for.
I hope to start my life over again, and everything is still possible.
