Huo Ci, on the other hand, calmed down. He discarded all distracting thoughts and tightened his grip on the steering wheel. The van let out a sharp screeching sound as sparks flew between the wheels and the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the van narrowly missed the truck.
The truck driver broke out in a cold sweat. He looked at the van opposite him, it was as if it was performing acrobatics, its driver’s skills made him gasp in amazement. For a moment, he even forgot to step on the brakes. He frantically stepped on the brakes when he almost crashed into the van.
The two vehicles brushed past each other.
Huo Ci looked at the woman who was still lying on top of him and sobbing softly. He felt a lump in his throat and suffocated. The salty smell spread to his nose and his heart started to ache.
Was she worried about him? Was she afraid that he would die?
The truck driver was knocking on the window, asking about the two of them.
Huo Ci wanted to call out to her, but his hand reached to the top of her head and gently landed on it. He patted her twice to comfort her before turning to look at the truck driver outside the window and shaking his head.
When the driver saw the man turn his head, his eyes widened in shock. Huo Ci, Movie King Huo, and a woman in his arms!
Huo Ci saw that he was still not leaving, and he even took out his phone to take a photo. He glanced at him coldly and berated, “Get lost!”
The truck driver only felt a cold death stare that seemed threatening. He was so frightened that his body trembled, and his phone fell to the ground. He hurriedly picked it up and turned to flee.
It was very quiet in the car. Only the low, suppressed sobs of the woman could be heard.
After a long time, he spoke. “Hey.” Huo Ci’s voice was hoarse. He lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the woman in his arms. There were tears in his eyes, and his lips curled up into a relieved and happy smile. “Your daughter is already so old, why do you still like to cry so much?”
Nangong Lengyu hugged him as tears flowed down her cheeks. The person in her arms had a real warmth to him. It was as though he had never changed in all these years.
After sorting out the messy memories in her mind, she still did not understand what had happened. Was what happened a dream or was she still in a dream?
“I’m sorry.” Seeing that she was silent, Huo Ci hugged her tightly and rested his chin on the top of her head. He sighed softly. “I love you.”
They almost got separated by death. Perhaps only after the close shave with death, they would know how precious time was and how to cherish every minute and second of being together.
He clearly remembered that at the last moment of his life, he regretted not being able to apologize to her. No matter how much he hated or resented her, it was not enough to overcome his love for her.
Nangong Lengyu’s cries grew louder. Other than crying, she did not know what to say or do.
The operating theater was so quiet that it was suffocating. His cold corpse made it look like the accident had just happened a moment ago.
It was at that moment that she realized that nothing else mattered. In the face of death, their resentment and mutual torment were so childish.
After a long time, Nangong Lengyu was finally done crying. She felt much better and wanted to slowly retreat. However, she was hugged tightly by him. A man’s deep and pleasant sexy voice sounded in her ears. “Don’t move. Let me hug you.”
Nangong Lengyu felt embarrassed. She was already in her forties and was no longer young. “Huo Ci, let go of me.”
“I’m not letting go.” Huo Ci had waited so long for the two of them to finally let go of their differences. He said in a hoarse voice, “I haven’t hugged you for so many years. Come back to me.”
She did not hate him, nor did she not care about him. After knowing her feelings, he suddenly wanted to tell the whole world that he was the happiest person in the world.
Nangong Lengyu frowned. What kind of twisted logic was that? She nudged him. “I’m going to look for Sheng Sheng.”
“She’s an adult, not a child.” Huo Ci scoffed. Sensing the woman’s body stiffening for a moment, he quickly said, “Fifth Brother said that she went to look for Song Yiyan.”
“You’re not a child either.” Nangong Lengyu pushed him again. Her hoarse voice sounded coquettish. “Let go. I can’t breathe.”
Only then did Huo Ci loosen his grip. A delighted smile hung on his lips. “Why did you rush over just now?”
Nangong Leng frowned slightly but did not say a word.
“Were you touched when I saved Xiaoqi?” Huo Ci let out a low laugh. He squinted his eyes slightly and took in the light fragrance on her body. He was in a good mood.
Nangong Lengyu heard him mention Xiaoqi and asked, “Where’s Xiaoqi?”
“At Jun Shiyan’s place.” Naturally, Huo Ci would not tell her that the rascal had gone to look for him and called him ‘Grandpa’. In the end, he had sent him away with a single word.
Now that he thought about it, the rascal must be really sad at that time. He heard from his parents that the rascal went to visit them at the Huo Family. They even asked him who he was and why he called them Great-Grandpa and Great-Grandma.
“What’s going on with Ah Yan? Is Sheng Sheng back for you or them?” Nangong Lengyu frowned.
“She’s definitely looking for me.” Huo Ci was very sure, and his tone was obviously arrogant.
That wretched girl even went to look for him at night and cried while chasing after his car. If he ignored her, she would be heartbroken!
The wretched girl and the rascal at home must have not lost their memories. Once they found her, he would know what happened and why he died and came back to life.
What about Third Master Jun? He must have lost his memory. Otherwise, with his temper, he would have gone all over the world to look for that wretched girl.
Oh yes, he had a woman by his side now, she had been with him for two years. It was Gu Shen’s girlfriend, the one called Luo Xin.
Fuck, Third Brother Jun’s three grandsons were just playboys. No, he definitely couldn’t let that wretched girl find him. He had to stop the possibility of them being together.
“Sheng Sheng, hurry up and get up!” Song Yiyan entered the house and dashed towards the big bed. She tugged at Ling Sheng excitedly. “Your parents are in the headlines!”
Ling Sheng was sleeping soundly when she was pulled up by someone so strong that she was forced to sit up straight. She was still angry at her for waking her up and growled angrily, “You lunatic!”
“Your parents are in the headlines. Hurry up and take a look.” Song Yiyan seemed to be excited about something as she pointed her phone at Song Yiyan’s face. “A taxi driver said he pulled your mother over. Their car broke down on the road and your father took your mother away.”
Ling Sheng was in a daze and could not open her eyes. She could barely read the words. When she saw the names of the two of them, she woke up immediately.. “My mother is in China?”
