million. If Ms. Zhou is unwilling, just find someone else!"Vice President Li was clearly taken aback.What's going on hereHo Shaoting had already given an order to leave: "Miss Zhou, you will be workin...Wen Man had no mind to talk at all.

And what he wanted to talk about, she knew exactly. He just wanted to get back together with her.

Having gone through that and divorced for three years.

Wen Man had long since lost her feelings, she didn't hate him anymore, but the love they once shared had also vanished like smoke.

But because of Ho Xi, she wanted to live in peace with him.

She whispered, “I want to see her first!”

Under dim lighting.

He tightened his grip for a moment, then loosened it and whispered, "Go. Don't wake her."

Wen Man softly hummed in response, walking past him and heading upstairs.

After she walked away, Huo Shaoting lowered his head to gaze at his palm. The warmth of Wen Man's touch still lingered there, a warmth he cherished.

……

Second floor, in front of the children's bedroom.

Wen Man's fingers rested on the doorknob. She hesitated for a moment, then gently pushed it open.

Little Ho Xi was indeed asleep.

In a pale pink bedroom, a bedside lamp glowed softly. The little creature lay on its side, sleeping soundly, its mouth slightly open, breathing sweet air.

Wen Man's heart ached with a mixture of tenderness and sadness.

She sat on the edge of the bed, extending a slender finger to gently stroke the little one.

There's so much to touch!

For three years, she missed this child for three years, especially the two years when little Huo Xi lay in the lab, her mother was not there.

Guilt filled her completely.

Even though she knew Huo Shaoting did it for her own good, she still hated him.

Wen Man's eyes slid over tears, she didn't care, leaning down and kissing her little Huo Xi.

Hosei, she looks like her.

But her personality was entirely inherited from Huo Shaoting.

Wen Man couldn't help but lie down and hug Xiao Hoxi. Inhaling the faint milky scent from her, she felt a sense of calm wash over her. It was as if in this moment, all her pain had been soothed away.

Ho Shao-ting stood at the door, quietly watching them.

He knew he should give Wen Man time to adjust, but he couldn't contain himself.

He longed to be close to her.

It's not just about wanting her; he wants to possess her. Three years from now, he'll want to know... does she still want him

Ho Shaoting turned off the light.

The bedroom suddenly plunged into darkness, Wen Man was startled.

Then, the soft mattress beside her sank deeply. Huo Shaoting propped himself up above her, and in the dim light, no one could see who was doing what to whom...

Wen Man lowered her voice: "Ho Shao-ting, are you crazy!"

He gazed at her.

Then, under her gaze, he bowed his head and kissed her. Wen Man was caught off guard and was allowed into his mouth by him, gently teasing...

They hadn't seen each other in a long time.

Ho Shaoting was clearly much less skilled. He relied on memory to tease her, making her feel comfortable.

Wen Man pushed him.

But Little Huo Xi was sleeping beside her, and any movement would wake him. She didn't want the child to see this scene, so she hesitated for a moment. At that moment, Huo Shao Ting cupped her face and began to kiss her deeply...

Wen Man couldn't dodge and, in a panic, bit him.

Ho Shao-ting stepped back.

In the darkness, his black eyes locked onto hers, he said in a hoarse voice: "Wen Man, you responded just now! You still feel something for my body!"

The warmth left her breathless.

They were both in a state of distress now, even each breath she took felt like it pressed her against his body. She was both ashamed and angry: “ Huo Shaoting, didn’t you say we were going to talk in the study What is this now”

He pressed down on her.

His face was pressed against her neck, and for a long time he remained silent.

After a long silence, he finally spoke: "Wen Man, I miss you so much! I admit I want you, I want to be with you in bed. Which man wouldn't want to be intimate with the woman he loves after being apart for years"

Wen Man's mind cleared somewhat.

She kicked him and shouted, "Get out! We're divorced!"

I thought he would cling on, but to my surprise, he gently moved his body and didn't force her.

After all, it was almost a disaster.

Wen Man went to the restroom, freshened up, and then went to the study to talk to him.

There is so much they need to talk about.

Xiaohuxi's past, present, and future.

As parents, even if you're divorced, these things need to be carefully considered.

……

It was obvious that Huo Shao-ting was also prepared for a long talk with her.

Wen Man pushed the door open. He was making coffee and, hearing her footsteps, said naturally, "Still Mint Ting, right"

Wen Man nodded, she lightly sat down on the sofa.

She watched his back.

Upon their reunion, this was her first time truly looking at Huo Shaoting. He was still as handsome as ever, but his temperament had become more reserved. Of course, there were times when he acted shamelessly, just like before.

Ho Shao-ting placed the coffee in front of her.

He took out a thick file from the bookshelf and handed it to her. Wen Man had been prepared by Lu Qian, but her fingers still trembled uncontrollably as she took the file.

The night was deep.

Wen Man turned the pages one by one, and he accompanied her quietly.

As the sky began to lighten, Wen Man closed her files, her face etched with fatigue.

Ho Shao-ting's handsome face fell into reminiscence. He whispered, "Back then, when you were sick, I was afraid you wouldn't make it! Later, little Ho Xi got better, but the first two years were really tough! Until this year, Ho Xi has been basically stable. Although she still gets the occasional minor illness, she will grow up well!"

Wen Man gently put the file down.

She looked at him, softly murmuring, "What kind of little illnesses are you talking about"

Ho Shaoting struggled to speak: "Autism, blood clotting disorder, and... she's also a panda."

As he said these words, he was lost in thought himself.

Wen Man listened even more dazed.

Her slender fingers dug deep into her flesh, she couldn't believe what she had heard, her heart ached terribly.

Huo Shaoting went around behind her.

He gently held her, resting his chin on her slender shoulder: "Wen Man, let's start over! This time I'll be a good husband and father. I won't let you down again!"

He knew she wouldn't agree easily.

But he couldn't help but say it, this kind of night is perfect for courting.

Wen Man refused without even thinking about it.

She restrained herself and said calmly, "Ho Shaoting, we can't be together! I won't fight you for custody because Ho Xi is raised by you. I can't hurt her feelings, so the best way is for us to co-parent! We can divide our time...I can do whatever you want!"

Ho Shao-ting's heart turned cold at once.

Wen Man even planned out the time allocation and didn't get angry with him, let alone slap him.

He would rather she slapped him!

Given the atmosphere, he wasn't comfortable flirting with her anymore. He had to back off for now: "Let's talk later! Accompany Huo Xi first! By the way, Huo Xi has autism and goes for checkups every month. Let's go together next time!"

Wen Man did not refuse.

She is Xiao Hoxi's mother. When she stepped into this villa last night, she knew she would have less freedom.

But she had no regrets.

Wen Man also had her own thoughts. She tentatively said, “ Huo Shaoting, I… don’t intend to get married. If you plan to remarry, why not entrust her to me I guarantee I won’t go abroad, and you can see her whenever you want!”shots, my arm is practically useless.Her radar was on point.An Ran packed very neatly, but Huo Yunsi being a man, was not as meticulous.The shirt collar was slightly open, his skin flushed, with tiny,...
