"In the beginning, I also blamed you. Blame you for marrying me and thinking about getting divorced all the time. "Blame you for believing that I had a one-night stand with you, blame you for thinking that I would make things difficult for you and your aunt, blame you even more, blame you for thinking that you could not protect me, that you would actually hide behind me, and appear in public as Huo Zichen's girlfriend." Huo Yan caressed her delicate face and smiled bitterly.

"But, what right do I have to blame you? It's because I hurt you too much in the beginning and the sense of security I gave you after we got together was too little. That's why you couldn't fall too deep into love with me and wanted to leave at any moment. "

"I won't speak too much sweet words to a woman. The only way I can give you a sense of security is to give you everything I have. Qingqing, I promise you, I've never had a woman other than you. There won't be any in the past, and there won't be any in the future. If you find out that I've been lying to you, you can ask for a divorce at any time and let me out of the house. "

Huo Yan looked deeply at her. In his dark eyes, Gu Lan Qing could see that her eyes were filled with tears.

She hugged Huo Yan tightly. "You liar!" "If I don't like you anymore, and take your money and stay with Zichen, what will you do?"

"Don't worry, I won't give you the chance to do so." Huo Yan chuckled, but a trace of malice flashed across his eyes.

As if he was crazy, he cared about her relationship with Huo Zichen.

However, he had to desperately pretend that he didn't care.

He wanted her to believe him, and he had to give her the same trust first.

"Fool …" How could Gu Lanqing not know what he was thinking?

She raised her head and looked at him, tears shining in her eyes. With a hoarse voice, she asked, "Huo Yan, I can't give you a child." Your aunt did that to save you. She was against our being together. I really don't want to put you between her and me. "

"Foolish girl, if I had all listened to her, I would not have reached where I am today. She saved me, but that doesn't mean I have to do what she wants me to do. As for the child … " As soon as he mentioned his child, pain flashed across Huo Yan's eyes.

Wasn't the dead child a wound that he would never be able to heal?

Even if he destroyed the entire Mo Clan, the wound would still be there.

"If you like, we can adopt."

Gu Lanqing's small face revealed a hint of hesitation at the mention of her child.

"What's wrong?" Huo Yan asked in a low voice.

Gu Lan Qing leaned against his chest, her slender fingers lightly fiddling with his clothes. She whispered, "How is Huo Jinyang now?"

"He has already woken up and escaped from danger." Huo Yan's voice turned cold. He reached out and grabbed Gu Lan Qing's chin. "I know what you're planning." That child might have half my blood and bones, but to me, he was completely tricked. I won't allow you to think about adopting him. "

Gu Lanqing couldn't blame Huo Yan for being cold-blooded.

After all, Huo Jinyang's mother was Mo Wanying.

Mo Liantao was his father's enemy.

He couldn't leave Huo Jinyang behind.

She sighed to herself — she really liked that child.

"I didn't ask you to adopt him. I just feel sorry for him. " she whispered.

"Because of him, you are the one who almost became a murderer. "Don't waste unnecessary sympathy on unnecessary people." Huo Yan said coldly.

With that, Ye Zichen's phone rang.

Gu Lanqing seemed to be running away as she hurried Huo Yan to pick up the phone. "It's already so late. I think I have urgent business with you."

Huo Yan let her go and went to answer the phone.

Picking up the phone, he saw that it was Ling Hong calling.

"What's the matter?" He answered the phone and asked tersely.

"Alright. With such an impatient tone, it can't be that I have disturbed the love between you and your wife, right? " Ling Hong asked mockingly.

"Since you know, then cut the crap." Huo Yan tilted his head to the side and looked over at Gu Lanqing, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, looking at him with a smile.

How could she not know that she was slightly displeased by his ice-cold attitude towards Huo Jinyang.

"…" Ling Hong was silent for a few seconds. Finally, he opened his mouth and said, "Huo Yan, come out." I have something to say to you. "Don't let Gu Lanqing hear it."

"What is it?" Ling Hong asked as he walked towards the door, with a rare serious tone in his voice.

"It's about Huo Jinyang's ancestry. Huo Jinyang's mother is not Mo Wanying. " As soon as Ling Hong finished speaking, Huo Yan suddenly stopped.

Even though Gu Lan Qing was sitting on the bed and the light was dim near the door, she could still feel Huo Yan's body stiffen in that instant.

What happened?

As if she was hallucinating, Huo Yan had already opened the door and left the bedroom.

Two minutes later, Huo Yan returned.

Gu Lan Qing looked worried. "What's wrong?"

"Yes." I have to go on a business trip. I'm afraid I won't be back for the next two days. "Be good." Huo Yan walked to the bed and looked down at Gu Lan.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Gu Lan's almond eyes widened as she looked at the clock. It was already one o'clock in the morning.

"Yes, something urgent has happened." A haze flashed across Huo Yan's eyes.

"I'll help you pack." Gu Lanqing got off the bed, but before her feet could touch the ground, her sharp chin was caught by Huo Yan.

Huo Yan bent over and kissed her tightly with his thin lips.

A kiss that was filled with uneasiness and a little hostility almost took her breath away.

Just as she couldn't take it anymore and was about to punch him on the back, he released her. Huo Yan's dark eyes locked onto her, making her feel uneasy.

"Qingqing, take what I just said to heart. I never betrayed you. " With these words, Huo Yan stood up and left the bedroom.

Gu Lan caressed her swollen lips, worry in her almond-shaped eyes.

What did Huo Yan's words mean?

The next day.

After she recovered from her injuries, she went to the studio to work.

Just as he walked into the elevator, a slightly hoarse male voice called out, "Wait a moment."

Gu Lanqing hastily pressed the key to open the elevator.

Liang Wenxiu stepped into the elevator.

His face was pale and handsome. He looked down at Gu Lan Qing with eyes full of guilt.

"Qingqing, I'm sorry about that night. I almost offended you. "

Gu Lanqing raised her head and met Liang Wenxiu's gaze. "The one who should be apologizing is me." I've implicated you. "

It was Mo Wanying who wanted to destroy her and Brother Liang.

"Perhaps I have implicated you." A dark light flashed in the depths of Liang Wenxiu's eyes.

"What do you mean?" This was the first time Gu Lanqing had seen such an expression in the refined and open-minded Liang Wenxiu's eyes. She couldn't help but ask.

"I don't want to say more. Qingqing, be careful of Liang Xi Yu. She's not as simple as you look. " The elevator door opened.

Liang Wenxiu was the first to step out of the elevator, leaving a message for Gu Lanqing.
