On the way home from the hospital with the children, they met Huo Xuewen who came in a hurry.
He looked travel-weary, with a circle of blue stubble on his chin.
When Chenchen saw him, he shouted happily, "Dad! Dad is here!"
Huo Xuewen seemed to breathe a sigh of relief when he saw his expression. He quickly came 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 checked his forehead temperature, then turned to Ning Shaoyun and asked, "Thank you for your hard work. What did the doctor say?"
"It's nothing serious. Just take medicine on time, drink plenty of water and rest." Ning Shaoyun said, "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 held Chenchen in his arms and followed behind silently.
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 at a low price in Hainan in order to avenge Chenchen;
Moreover, now that his background has been revealed, the Huo family has been thrown into chaos by Director Luo's influence and they have no time to care about him at all.
His current situation should be very bad. If it were an ordinary person, he 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 Xia Wenyue and Xia Mian, Ning Shaoyun hesitated for a moment and then asked, "How are you doing recently?"
Huo Xuewen touched 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 didn't do well enough, so he worked 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, he still had two treasures in his ordinary life...
Ning Shaoyun sighed with mixed feelings, "What are your plans for the future?"
"Go back and meet your parents," Huo Xuewen said, "and then use the remaining capital to start some business. I'll always give it to Chenchen and..."
At this point, he paused and continued, "Earn a fortune."
He stroked Chenchen's back and said, "I've already been very sorry to him before."
Chenchen turned his head in confusion, "Dad?"
"Yeah." Huo Xuewen pinched his son's face, with a little gentle smile on his face, "I hope our Chenchen can do whatever he wants in the future 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 most recent Lego puzzle is an airplane.
Huo Xuewen's eyes were full of determination. "Well, wait until Dad makes money to buy you a plane. It may take some time, so can you wait for Dad?"
Chenchen nodded.
Ning Shaoyun couldn't help but frowned, "Don't promise him so easily, you are 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 son of the Huo family, I am still Chenchen's father..." Your admirer.
"For him," I have you.
"I will start over again."
Start learning to love again, learn to protect again, and find back the treasures that he had 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 comrade."
"… "
"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, "The police called and said something happened in 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 while, he explained carefully, "Dad... Huo Pengyi has given Huo Yuanlong a lot of power since last year."
"At that time I didn't think much of it, and didn't take it to heart until Xiao Bai reminded me. Then 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 finished it..."
"You know what happened next..."
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 made her feel insecure.
So much so that the two of them had almost nothing to say to each other afterwards.
Ning Shaoyun lowered her eyelids to hide the emotions in her eyes, "It's okay, it's all in the past."
Huo Xuewen said nothing more, stood up and said, "I have to go."
Ning Shaoyun reached out and took Chenchen over. 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. 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 was just getting some information 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 has people worth fighting and working hard for.
I hope to start my life over again, and everything is still possible.
