Chapter 540
in the master bedroom, getting up several times to look out the window at the rain. The landscaping lights in the courtyard cast a green glow on the shrubs, and the rain fell from the sky like silver...Huo Mingzheng's warm fingertips caressed the imprint of her hand.
If she truly didn't care, why would her hand clench so tightly when she said those words to him
A person's unconscious actions never lie.
He fixed his gaze on her, determined to get a response from her.
He also kept holding her hand, not letting her pinch him again.
Fu Yan turned her head to glance at the streetlights on the street. In the dimness of this side, her eyes seemed to shimmer with moisture.
She suddenly asked Huo Mingzheng, "What do you think"
"You think I love you, so I said those insincere words to get revenge on you, right"
She looked up at Huo Mingzheng, her eyes not dodging at all, and then smiled, "I just want to tell you, you've overthought things."
Such a nonchalant appearance caused Huo Mingzheng's chest to surge with anger.
He instinctively tightened his grip on her, "Yan Yan, don't speak to me like that!"
Darkness is a breeding ground for certain emotions. Huo Mingzheng desperately suppressed the tumultuous emotions surging within him, trying to tear them apart.
He said slowly, "You can't fool me."
"Do you really care about me"
As he hugged Fu Yan, a black object, pencil-length but thicker than a pencil, appeared in her hand. It was pressed against Huo Mingzheng's chest.
Huo Mingzheng recognized it at a glance, it was a personal defense electric shock weapon!
At almost the same time, bodyguards hidden nearby sprang into action.
Ready to charge towards Fu Yan!
"
Stay still!
"
Ho Ming-zheng gave an order, and the bodyguards stopped their movements.
His eyes were fixed on Fu Yan's face, his chest rising and falling with each breath. "A self-defense tool, you used it on me"
Fu Yan forcefully pulled her hand away, the other hand still gripping the stun gun against his chest.
"Mr. Huo, remember this, the next time you get close to me, I won't be polite."
Fu Yan walked two steps, she heard Huo Mingzheng's footsteps behind her, and didn't look back.
Since you have so many bodyguards, there are naturally cars to go back. Don't waste your effort trying to take mine.
Fu Yan walked out of the alley with large strides. The expression on her face was the same as it had been inside the alley—composed and indifferent.
She opened the car door, got in, started the engine, and drove away.
Just as we came to the first traffic light, the car stopped.
Her hands, gripping the steering wheel, were tense and white.
A pair of eyes were red with tears.
As night deepens, the entire city gradually enters a state of slumber.
Downstairs in the neighborhood, a black Bentley stopped after pulling up onto the curb. The window rolled down.
The lights on the twelfth floor came on.
Huo Mingzheng lit a cigarette.
Even with her terrible driving skills, she wouldn't be half an hour late due to a few traffic lights.
Thinking that she must be heartbroken and delayed her journey, Huo Mingzheng's hand holding the cigarette trembled slightly, the flame licking at his fingers.
This pain is nothing compared to the agony in my heart.
......
The city's public bid item that Fu Yan wanted to win. After work, she stayed behind and worked overtime even though her colleagues had already left. She had been working overtime for seven days, excluding weekends.
"Manager Fu, I'm leaving first. You should head home early too," Assistant Xiaoxi also left.
"Okay, be careful on your way."
Fu Yan wrote some new project proposals again. Looking at the time, it was 10 o'clock in the evening.
Just as she was about to pack up and leave, suddenly something rang in her hand.
Incoming Call: Huo Mingzheng
Fu Yan looked at it for a few seconds, her mind recalling Huo Mingzheng's words from a few days ago, both chasing after her and asking if she could start over.nly took a step forward from behind, pulling her into his arms.One hand gripped her tightly, the other placed at the back of her head.Huo Mingzheng's breath was ragged, his eyes flashed red, and he sa...
