Chapter 278 So, what about you? Do you love me?
erself tightly against the door, her eyes wide with helplessness as she stared at him. She had actually come to talk about Xiao Hoxi...Ho Shao-ting kissed her lips again.Those lips, smelling of tobacc...A photograph, gently tucked into his shirt pocket.
Wen Man's slender fingers gently helped him tidy up, and finally patted him lightly.
Huo Shaoting looked into her eyes and pulled out that photo—
This firm's new intern is Chu Lian!
He walked to the foot of the bed and sat down, gently loosening his tie and smiling faintly: "Is this what all the fuss is about He's just an intern. Hardly worth making such a big deal out of it!"
"Just an intern"
Wen Man slowly walked over, bent down and whispered: "Ho Shaoting, you've crossed my line! You really think I have no temper"
Ho Shaoting chuckled lightly and touched her delicate cheek.
Wen Man disliked his recklessness and wanted to avoid him, but his movements were too fast. He immediately grabbed her slender waist and lightly caressed it back and forth...
"Is that so"
"And you Do you love me"
“When we were doing it, you held me and called for Shaoting... are you calling for me, Huo Shaoting, or the person in your memories Hmm”
"Wen Man, I'm just a stand-in!"
"Who among us is more noble"
……
Wen Man's heart ached terribly!
She lowered her eyes and sneered, " Huo Shaoting, you've said so much, but it's nothing more than refusing to fire her! I want to ask you, are you keeping an intern, or are you keeping a regret from your youth"
"Haw Shaoting, you sleep with me and enjoy the benefits of marriage, while also putting someone else by your side... Who are you disgusting"
Wen Man picked up the photograph.
She tore it to shreds in front of Huo Shaoting!
He Shao-ting leaned back, his eyes gleaming with an unfamiliar clarity as if he had never seen Wen Man before!
After a long time, he smiled gently: “It turns out I married a she-tiger!”
After he finished speaking, he reached out and pulled her close, causing Wen Man to fall into his arms.
Physical contact, the air thick with unspoken tension...
Wen Man gently lowered her eyes and said coldly, "I haven't reached 42 days yet, are you such a beast"
Ho Shao-ting is keen on having a go.
Upon hearing this, I felt a sense of disappointment.
Of course, when they truly tear off their facades, there's nothing left to be concerned about... no need to pretend. He gently pinched her cheek: "What shall we do Every day I think of being a beast with Mrs. Huo!"
Wen Man pushed him away, got up and smoothed her clothes, then pushed open the door to the master bedroom...
That night, she did not return to the master bedroom.
Ho Shao-ting knew she slept in the guest room, perhaps reminiscing about "that Shao-ting" in the study!
Yes, there are problems in their marriage!
What she loved was her husband…
As for him, there was no trace of her in his memory. He had spent over half a year with her and had indeed tried hard, but he could never find that feeling similar to love.
A pile of scraps of paper on the ground...
He thought, if he loved her, he would do what she asked tonight.
But he didn't love her, they were just a couple who shared a bed but slept apart. Now, they didn't even bother pretending anymore...
Ho Shao-ting felt relieved!
He thought, marriage was still simpler, for example, raising children together, for example, when needed on weekends, the two of them would turn off the lights and do a few things...
Talking about feelings is exhausting!
But he soon realized that Wen Man wasn't just having a tantrum, she was serious.
He was out socializing, she was mostly not home.
The maid said she stayed at the Huo residence overnight to take care of the two children!
Even at home, she wouldn't readily sleep in the same bed with him...
……
One week later, Yingjie Agency.
In the spacious office, Huo Shaoting sat quietly, his long middle finger resting on his chin....
After finishing the business, Zhang the secretary smiled and said: "Tomorrow is Saturday, Mr. Huo, have a nice weekend!"
Ho Shao-ting regained his composure and managed a weak smile.
Ms. Zhang was just about to offer some suggestions on how to improve marital relations when the office door creaked open, and a slender figure walked in. She was very young and looked clean-cut; it was Chu Lian, the intern.
Ho Shao-ting frowned.
Zhang's secretary asked, "Is there anything I can help you with"
Chu Lian raised the small cake box in her hand, a little shyly saying: "Mr. Huo, today is my birthday! I made this cake myself, and I want to share it with you..."
Ho Shaoting glanced at Zhang's secretary.
Zhang's secretary took it and placed it on her desk: "You're so thoughtful!"
Chu Lian didn't leave, she bit her lip, looking pitiful: "Actually... a few colleagues had organized a birthday banquet for me, Lawyer Huo and Secretary Zhang. I would like to invite you both!"
Ms. Zhang cursed inwardly: "This little white lotus!"
Ho Shaoting directly refused: "No need! By the way, don't just barge into my office next time!"
She did indeed have a Joan face.
And she was clearly flirting with him!
But Ho Shao-ting had never harbored any desires for Qiao An, let alone the young girl before him! He simply... Qiao An was dead, and seeing someone so similar to her stirred some emotions in him. He only hoped that this girl who looked so much like her would walk the righteous path.
Even though Wen Man was so angry with him, he didn't fire her!
Ho Shao-ting's rejection left Chu Lian feeling humiliated and ashamed.
She choked back tears and said, “Mr. Huo, I didn’t mean anything by it!”
"Get out!"
Chu Lian covered her face and left, closing the door behind her.
Ho Shaoting closed the file and said softly, "Didn't we say it was on the weekend Please order a bouquet of flowers for me!"
He is going to pick up Wenman.
Zhang's secretary smiled and said, "Okay!"
……
Wen Man has been busy working out and practicing yoga recently.
Bai Wei heard that the effects were great, so she came over too. After practicing for less than half an hour, she was exhausted. Looking at Wen Man who was still calm and composed, she felt both envy and jealousy: "Wen Man, you're so persistent!"
Wen Man did another set of exercises.
The fitness coach, tactfully, left.
Wen Man was applying lotion to her waist, and said with a self-deprecating smile, "A woman who has given birth to two children, if she doesn't work hard at exercising, how can she compete with young girls"
Bai Wei Ke disagreed.
Wen Man's figure, with a chest that's a chest and a waist that's a waist...
No ordinary girl compares!
She had stroked it twice with relish, just when she was in a mood for mischief, Wen Man's assistant came in and said softly, "Ms. Wen, there is a young girl who wants to see you!"
Wen Man asked faintly, "What did you say"
She said her last name was Chu!
Wen Man took a towel and slowly wiped the sweat from her forehead, then softly said, "Let her come in!"
The assistant went out to open the door.
Bai Wei said rather awkwardly, "Isn't that the person you told me about last time No way, Qiao An was so pushy back then, Huo Shaoting didn't even have any interest!"
Wen Man smiled: "This is called a man's sentiment!"
< Bai Wei rolled her eyes. >
In a little while, Assistant Xu led in a very young girl. The girl was quite beautiful, but her mannerisms were a bit awkward. After entering, she softly called out, "Mrs. Huo!"
Wen Man was stretching on the horizontal bar...
That slender waist and straight legs made Chu Lian feel a pang of envy.ne was a bit coquettish.Lu Qian sighed as he signed, "After these few I'm done!"The pearl circled around him from behind.He thought she was going to cause trouble for him, but Mingzhu gently pressed h...
