Bai Qingqing had not been able to sleep well. It was not easy for her to fall asleep, but she was awoken by a nightmare.
No matter how she ran, it seemed like there was no end. However, when she made up her mind to look back and see what this man looked like, she saw a face that didn't have a single trace of grievance hanging in front of her …
He sat up in shock, his back drenched.
Suddenly, his cell phone rang, giving him a fright.
An unfamiliar number?
4: 50 in the morning?
Who wouldn't be on the phone at this hour?
Bai Qingqing's first thought was to disturb the phone and immediately pressed down.
Just as he was about to close his eyes and go to sleep, the phone rang again.
Hanging up again.
Again.
Huo Yun Chen frowned.
He finally accepted it, but he didn't know what to say.
"Hello."
"Hello."
The voice was low and cold, not familiar.
Bai Qing asked tentatively.
"Who are you?"
"Huo Yunchen."
Huo Yunchen?
Xiao Bai gently searched through the information stored in his brain before directly replying,
"I don't know him. You called the wrong number."
Beep — — beep — — beep — —
She had actually hung up on him. When had he, Huo Yuncheng, ever taken the initiative to call a woman? She had even hung up on him.
Huo Yun Chen held the phone in his hand and stared blankly at it for a while until the screen turned black.
The corner of her mouth curled up into a faint smile. She rubbed her ears, not understanding why she had made this call.
It was just a dream.
That dream had been haunting him all these years, the dream of him and a woman in a bed as white as snow. But all these years, he had never seen that woman's face in his dreams.
It was really funny that it was her.
It was impossible for the Huo family to marry a woman who had given birth to a child, especially a woman whose birth father was unaware.
He left his cell phone on the bed and went to the bathroom to take a cold shower.
He changed into a sportswear and went out to the mountain behind the manor house for a morning run. He stood on the mountain and watched the yellow sun break through the clouds.
His impetuous mood improved a lot, but the more he tried not to think about that woman, the more she became ingrained in his mind.
During breakfast, Liu Kai placed a folder next to Huo YunChen and spoke with a serious tone.
"Mr. Shen, I found it. This is all the information that the woman has. "
"Well, put it down. I'll see for myself later. You haven't had breakfast yet, so sit down and eat together. "
Huo Yun Chen gestured for Liu Kai to sit down, but Liu Kai stood there obediently with a heavy expression.
"What happened to you so early in the morning? Is there a problem with this woman? Was it sent over from there? "
"No, she … she has no problems. It's …" "Yes …"
As Liu Kai spoke, he started crying. Huo Yun Chen looked at him with disdain.
Why did he bring such a bodyguard home? He cried faster than a woman.
"Alright, say it quickly if you have something to say."
"It's the old lady!"
"What happened to the old lady?"
"When I was passing by the garden, I heard a few gardeners saying that the old lady's illness has reached its advanced stage. There's less than half a year left."
As Liu Kai spoke, he cried even more miserably.
The fork in Huo YunChen's hand fell to the ground with a thud. It wasn't a fake.
Grandmother was really sick, but she didn't want him to worry so much that she forced herself to stay alert.
He got up and walked to the French window. Looking at his grandma sitting on a wheelchair in the garden, he felt as if he had swallowed a large lemon. His internal organs were all sore.
