Sometimes, things are extremely simple.

It’s just that those involved... can’t see clearly.

Children can often see things clearly, yet adults remain oblivious.

Hua Nuan can clearly sense the resentment Huo Si harbors towards Huo Zun.

Obviously... the true culprit is their beloved father.

Huo Zun’s mother committed suicide.

Huo Si’s mother died from depression.

In this grand residence of the Huo Family... probably couldn’t survive.

Their hearts... have died, so even living a life of luxury can’t remedy it.

Hua Nuan pursed her lips slightly, then said.

"Young Master Huo Si, if you’ve finished your story, then I won’t keep you company here idly, after all... not everyone is as idle as you."

After speaking, Hua Nuan smiled slightly and stood up, but the next second her wrist was grabbed by Huo Si.

"Stay, my story isn’t over yet."

Hua Nuan: "..."

"Hua Nuan, my story hasn’t reached the crucial point yet, don’t you care about An Wen’s matter?"

"Indeed, I don’t care. As for An Wen, if I really wanted to know, I’d rather hear it from my husband’s mouth than through someone else’s."

Although Hua Nuan is young and her married life has just begun.

She understands what should be understood.

Compared to others interfering without reason, it’s better for the couple to sit down and talk calmly, which is more effective.

Huo Si: "..."

Huo Si squinted his eyes, deeply gazing at the woman in front of him.

Hua Nuan’s every action exceeded his expectations.

"Alright, even if you don’t care, I still want to tell you."

Shameless.

Hua Nuan looked at the shameless manner of the man with great disgust.

This... it’s like a band-aid that won’t come off, sticking constantly.

Hua Nuan sharply flung away the man’s arm, her mouth curling into a cold smile.

"Fine, then I’ll listen attentively, but let me remind you, I’m busy, so please save time... don’t waste my time."

"Hua Nuan, has anyone ever told you that you’re very wild..."

"Call me sister-in-law, don’t be so disrespectful."

"Heh..."

Listening to the laughter escaping from the man’s lips, Hua Nuan couldn’t discern his emotions, but she could feel a sinister aura emanating from him.

"Continue talking."

Hua Nuan maintained a slight smile, yet her gaze was somewhat sharp.

"Well... An Wen grew up with Huo Zun, An Wen is the daughter of a servant... heh, an unwanted illegitimate child, a servant’s daughter, the two are undoubtedly a perfect match."

Hua Nuan: "..."

This statement truly shows Huo Si’s disdain for Huo Zun.

Hua Nuan twisted her lips, sternly saying, "Huo Si, I warn you, if you casually mention the word ’illegitimate child’ again, be careful, I might destroy you."

Huo Si, hearing Hua Nuan’s warning, lifted the corners of his mouth.

"Alright, I’ll listen to you, sister-in-law."

"When they were young, everyone shunned Huo Zun, even the servants looked down on Huo Zun and Yang Ruo, only An Wen was willing to be his friend."

Hua Nuan squinted her pretty eyes, never having met An Wen, yet hearing her name, especially the things Huo Si described about her, she could sense the woman’s good nature.

"Mm, and then?"

Seeing Hua Nuan finally showing interest, Huo Si’s interest also increased.

However, when it came to what happened later, he was brief.

"Then, An Wen died."

Hua Nuan: "..."

Hua Nuan’s expression changed slightly.

A woman likely so kind, how could she die without reason?

"What do you mean?"

"I killed her."

Hua Nuan: "..."

Upon hearing this, Hua Nuan clenched her small hand, looking angrily at the man in front of her, then reached out and grabbed his collar, sternly questioning him.

"What... did you say? You killed her? Why did you do it?"

"Heh... I’ve already stated the reason, Huo Zun and I are enemies, irreconcilable... so how could I let a woman who warmed him stay around?"

Hua Nuan: "..."

Previously, Hua Nuan might have said Huo Si was immature.

Now she realizes, he is far more than just immature.

Vengeful.

Even ruthless...

Sinister.

Hua Nuan took a deep breath, saying.

"Huo Si... if I had a gun right now, I’d definitely blow your head off... if I had a knife... you wouldn’t last three seconds, so you should be thankful I don’t have those right now."

Seeing Hua Nuan angrily gripping his collar, Huo Si’s lips curled into a subtle smile, exuding a sense of rebellion and recklessness.

"Yes, it seems you’ve treated me well, my respectful sister-in-law. You’ve clearly become an important part of Huo Zun’s heart, yet I don’t want to harm you at all."

Hua Nuan: "..."

Hua Nuan’s mouth curled into a cold smile, then she scolded, "Bah."

"Huo Si, you’re truly shameless."

Hua Nuan’s beautiful eyes were filled with coldness, chilling to the bone, but Huo Si seemed completely unaware as he stared at the woman in front of him, watching her seem eager to punch him fiercely, the smile at the corner of his lips growing even wider.

"Shameless... Ha, am I shameless? Huo Si and Yang Ruo ruined my family... took away everything that was originally mine, if that counts as shameless, then what about them?"

Some people, even when facing death... still don’t realize that what they are doing is wrong!

Hua Nuan squinted her beautiful eyes and swept her fierce gaze towards the man in front of her, angrily rebuking.

"China has an old saying, ’every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor’, Huo Si, none of this was caused by Huo Zun, the initiating sinner is your family, your so-called father, it has nothing to do with them, why did you kill innocent people?"

Hua Nuan raised her hand, clenched it into a fist, and struck the man in front of her hard, but the man lifted his hand and directly grabbed her fist. Hua Nuan sneered out loud, then lifted her leg to attack the man’s abdomen.

"Ugh..."

Huo Si was directly hit in a vital point by Hua Nuan’s leg lift, his lips twitched slightly, full of coldness.

"When An Wen died... she kept calling Huo Zun’s name with her mouth, ha, Hua Nuan, you really have a big heart, one was Huo Zun’s childhood friend, and you aren’t angry at all, but still think of getting justice."

Hua Nuan squinted her apricot eyes.

Hua Nuan raised a hint of a sneer at the corner of her mouth, gazing at the man in front of her and rebuking, "I’m not like you, I won’t look at people through tinted glasses... Huo Zun and An Wen are innocent, on this point, I’m almost certain. Huo Zun’s personality isn’t as sinister as yours, he tells me everything he has, instead of hiding it, so... don’t try to muddle the waters in front of me."

Saying this, Hua Nuan said coldly, "Huo Si, if I were you, I’d reflect on how much of a failure I’ve been, whether I’ve harmed the right person... or killed an innocent person, you’ve hated Huo Zun for so many years, but in fact... you never touched that chord in his heart."

Huo Si’s expression was a bit ugly, hearing Hua Nuan’s words, his big hand clenched into a fist, sweeping towards the woman in front of him, forcefully restraining the anger in his heart.

"Hua Nuan."

"I’m right here..."

Hua Nuan curled her lips, pursing her lips and speaking.

"Your story ends... I don’t want to hear it anymore, but I’m warning you, get lost quickly, or next time, I’ll have to rid the public of a pest."

After speaking, Hua Nuan shook off the man’s collar, preparing to leave, but Huo Si’s unwilling roar sounded behind her.

"Hua Nuan, weren’t those countless sad nights all accompanied by An Wen? You really don’t mind?"

Hua Nuan’s steps halted slightly, hearing the man’s words, the corner of her mouth curled.

Choosing not to say anything, instead directly choosing to leave.

With people like Huo Si, more words are futile.

So might as well say nothing at all.

Hua Nuan pursed her lips and walked straight toward the direction of the elevator.

Not minding is deceiving.

But whether to mind or not... often depends on the actual situation.

Regarding Huo Zun’s past, she has no right to intervene.

Regarding Huo Zun’s future, she... must get involved.

Still, if the two of them really have something going on, Huo Zun would definitely let her know.

So, she doesn’t need to listen to anyone else.

...

Huo Si angrily watched as Hua Nuan gracefully left, clenching his big hand.

...

Hua Nuan pursed her lips, her face somewhat pale.

When she reached Huo Zun’s office, the man was still in a meeting.

Hua Nuan sat on the sofa by herself, thinking about matters, thinking and eventually falling asleep.

When she woke up, she found herself sleeping in the man’s arms.

Hua Nuan’s eyes widened, a familiar scent wafted over, it was Huo Zun.

Hua Nuan smiled slightly, pursing her lips and speaking: "Finished? What time is it now? I fell asleep."

"Mm, it’s 5 PM, hungry?"

Huo Zun smiled, looking at Hua Nuan’s flushed cheeks, then let his long fingers fall on the woman’s cheek, pinching it slightly.

"Huo Zun... I’m not a bun, don’t pinch me casually."

"Hmm? Then can I eat it?"

After speaking, Huo Zun unabashedly planted a kiss on the woman’s cheek.

Hua Nuan: "..."

Her cheek was damp, her heart filled with disdain, just about to voice out her discontent, the man suddenly kissed her red lips.

Huo Zun’s kiss was explanatory, a perfect French kiss that made Hua Nuan dizzy.

The man was devilishly handsome, his kissing skills too good, it was really something.

She felt a lot of pressure.

Hua Nuan smacked her little lips, annoyed, pushing at the man’s chest, chuckling lightly as she spoke.

"It’s work time now, focus on your work!"

"Mm... working hard on you, doesn’t that count as serious work?"

Huo Zun’s blue eyes full of charm, Hua Nuan’s eyes widened.

In the next moment, the man’s gaze seemed like a vortex, Hua Nuan almost wanted to be drawn in completely.

Hua Nuan forced herself to suppress the throbbing in her heart, she still had serious matters to discuss with the man...

"Huo Zun!"

"Hmm?"

Huo Zun’s thin lips tilted slightly, then he took the woman entirely into his arms and headed to the lounge.

"I have something to talk to you about, can you be serious?"

"Mm, let’s discuss serious topics in bed..." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

"For goodness’ sake, how do you talk seriously in bed?"

"Beds can have babies, is having babies serious?"

Hua Nuan: "..."

Alright.

Huo Zun really made a lot of sense, she couldn’t refute him at all.

For goodness’ sake.

Hua Nuan wanted to say something more, but the man hugged her into the lounge and directly pressed her down.
