Jian Yunong also saw Huo Jincheng. He stood there, expressionless, and when their cold gazes met, it felt like snow melting in the air.
Taking a moment to steady her mind, Jian Yunong still stubbornly said, "He will believe me."
Yi Nansheng chuckled, and Jian Yunong noticed his movement. "What are you doing? Don't mess around. Hurry up and open the door; I want to get out."
However, Yi Nansheng reversed the car smoothly, making a sharp turn and driving out of the community gate. The familiar villa grew smaller in the rearview mirror until it disappeared completely.
Jian Yunong's face darkened. "What are you doing? Yi Nansheng, what do you really want? You got divorced; do you want me to get divorced too?"
Yi Nansheng firmly gripped the steering wheel. "I just want to help you. If he truly loves you, how could you possibly get divorced?"
Jian Yunong unbuckled her seatbelt. "Human nature can't withstand tests. Don't test it for no reason! You know very well that I married him without any emotional foundation. Everything we've built up to now has been gradual. When I married him, I initially thought I could leave at any time. But things changed... I can't back down at the first sign of difficulty. Yi Nansheng, I'm grateful to you; from my failed relationship with you, I've learned that love shouldn't falter over minor challenges. I was young and reckless before, but now I'm facing marriage, and I want to cherish it properly. I want to handle my feelings with an adult's mindset."
Yi Nansheng slowed down the car and eventually stopped by the roadside.
The window rolled down, and a biting cold wind rushed in.
"So... it was me who taught you what it means to like someone, only for you to turn around and love someone else. I never expected that one day the person I love most would love the person I hate most."
The smile on Yi Nansheng's face looked more like crying.
"Aren't you coming with me, Nong Nong? I will treat you better."
Yi Nansheng spoke softly, more as if he were talking to himself.
The cold wind blew from his side into Jian Yunong's heart, causing both pain and frost.
It was cruel to say, but her heart truly no longer belonged to Yi Nansheng.
"I used to like you—your gentleness, your good temper, your constant tolerance of me. If you asked me why I fell in love with Huo Jincheng, I probably wouldn't be able to answer. He has many strengths but also many terrifying flaws. Yet I've already fallen for him."
Jian Yunong said gently, "Yi Nansheng, let go. Fulfill my happiness; give up on me, and you'll be happier. It's like a cup—if it's full, how can it hold anything else? What you need to do is forget me..."
The central lock opened, and Jian Yunong almost immediately pushed the door open to get out of the car.
Jian Yunong didn't say goodbye; it was better not to meet again, for both their sakes.
Yi Nansheng maintained his position without change, watching Jian Yunong limp forward, taking uneven steps.
Jian Yunong walked quite gracefully at first, but halfway through, when she realized she was lost, the feeling of despair was enough to bring her to tears.
Where exactly had Yi Nansheng driven the car?
Which direction was home?
Fortunately, Jian Yunong had some money on her when she left. She hailed a taxi and finally returned home after half an hour of hassle.
She was anxious and had a lot to say, but Huo Jincheng wasn't home.
He wasn't home?
Jian Yunong collapsed onto the sofa, wondering what Huo Jincheng was doing now. Was he out looking for her?
There was no one in the bedroom on the second floor.
She called the office, and the secretary said Huo Jincheng hadn't gone to work today.
Jian Yunong held her phone, feeling a wave of helplessness wash over her.
Holding the phone, she typed out message after message, writing more than ten words only to delete them again.
How could she possibly convey these things in a text message?
Of course, it had to be said face to face!
Jian Yunong changed her clothes and went to the hospital.
It was drizzling outside, and Jian Yunong didn't bring an umbrella, so she walked in the rain.
On the top floor, in the VIP Room, Jian Yunong headed straight for that level. Outside the last patient room, she heard Huo Jincheng's voice.
Jian Yunong wanted to hide, but it was too late; she bumped directly into Huo Jincheng, who had just opened the door.
To be precise, the person opening the door was not Huo Jincheng but Bai Ru.
Huo Jincheng was holding Bai Ru; she had one arm around his neck while using the other hand to open the door.
Jian Yunong forced a smile, trying to appear calm, even though her heart ached so much that she felt like crying because she had come to find Huo Jincheng with her injured foot.
Bai Ru didn't say anything; her lips curled slightly in a smirk that seemed to convey a sense of triumph, at least from Jian Yunong's perspective.
"What are you blocking the door for?" Huo Jincheng's tone was very flat. Jian Yunong instinctively took a step back to make way for the two of them.
What were they going to do?
Jian Yunong didn't follow them. She felt very tired and leaned against the wall, breathing slowly.
Before coming here, Jian Yunong thought Huo Jincheng would be very angry.
What she didn't expect was that he treated her like air.
She felt empty inside, and then gradually shrank down, squatting on the ground.
A familiar voice sounded, "Mrs. Huo, what's wrong with you?"
Who?
Who is calling her?
Jian Yunong looked up, and Huo Jincheng's Assistant was looking at her with concern.
Jian Yunong wanted to say it was nothing, but she saw a pale version of herself in his eyes.
"Mr. Huo asked me to take you home."
"Oh."
Jian Yunong didn't ask him why he wasn't taking her himself.
She also didn't ask what Huo Jincheng was doing now.
"Do you need to see a doctor?" The assistant thought Jian Yunong really needed to see one given her appearance.
But Jian Yunong refused; she didn't want to stay in this hospital for even a moment longer and just wanted to go home and get some good sleep.
...
Huo Jincheng received a call from his grandmother while he was handling matters at the company.
"Why is there no one at home again?"
Huo Jincheng replied casually, "There is someone at home."
Jian Yunong was currently left alone at home.
The assistant mentioned that Jian Yunong had been staying at home obediently for the past two days and hadn't stepped out the door even once.
Now, both of them need to calm down.
Mainly, he needs to calm down; otherwise, just thinking about the scene where Yi Nansheng drove her away that day makes him angry inside.
He has an impulse to crush Jian Yunong to death.
Of course, Huo Jincheng did not drive to chase after her.
Putting on a passionate street racing drama for her?
That is not the style of Huo San Shao.
Huo Jincheng would make Jian Yunong understand the consequences of such actions.
"I rang the doorbell for a long time, but no one answered!"
Grandma Huo was actually in the living room; she was downstairs calling their names but received no response. She didn't go upstairs because she was afraid the young couple might be getting intimate up there.
In the end, Grandma Huo overthought it.
Huo Jincheng frowned. Could it be that Jian Yunong sneaked out again?
