Huo Chen’s hand did not leave her back. He touched her gently and caringly without forcing himself on her.
Lu Zhaoyang stole a look at Huo Chen and found that he was smirking.
This was probably the first time they had been so physically close to each other since their last separation.
Lu Zhaoyang felt wonderful to be in the arms of the man she loved. If only Huo Yunting would just disappear from her life.
Chen had awaken. They were still in love with each other. Perhaps it was not too much a fantasy to hope that they could still be together.
The only way to solve the conundrum was for her to divorce Huo Yunting, but how on earth could she do that...
Her heart was tormented and that made it impossible for her to sleep soundlessly at night.
She worried that this thorn in her heart would affect her health in the long run.
That night, Lu Zhaoyang made noodles with eggs and tomatoes for dinner. Back when she was living with her mother, the latter would often prepare this for her.
For some reason, she felt like having that dish tonight.
Huo Chen tried a mouthful of the steaming hot noodles and gave a thumbs-up. “This is so good it’s even better than in a five-star restaurant.”
“Then should I consider starting an asian style restaurant?”
She had barely finished asking when Huo Chen said, “No way, it’s too tiring.”
Given her condition, she should avoid stressful work.
“I’m feeling healthy!”
“No can do.”
“Alright...”
It had been a joke anyway, but he had taken it seriously.
Renovation on the second floor was not done yet. She was in a hurry to get a job.
Her life was filled with activities for now, aside from when she was alone at night.
When sleep came, she would always dream of Huo Yunting.
Tonight would be no different.
For some reason, the man appeared almost immediately after she fell asleep that night.
His lanky figure circled around her as he looked down at her from his towering figure. His eyes narrowed with unreadable mirth. His lips curved into a cold and mocking smile.
“You’ve had enough fun, Lu Zhayoang. Time to come home.
“Or do you expect me to take you away myself?
“Do you know what you are doing now? It’s called eloping, or having an affair. Are you sure you are willing to face the consequences?”
He spoke calmly and without intonation, but his gaze was intense. When their eyes met, Lu Zhaoyang awoke from the nightmare and quickly switched on the lights.
She said nothing in her dreams, but her heart was aching to say —
We should divorce!
Let me go!
End this ridiculous relationship!
It was still nighttime, but she found it hard to fall asleep again. Nevertheless, she must try, or Chen would notice and worry about her.
The lights were left on as she lay back down on her bed and continued her restless night.
...
It was middle of the night in Paris, but the sun was shining brightly back in the city in Z Country. Mo Shan carried a thermos with her and met Lin Yazhi in the elevator.
Lin Yazhi had a black backpack slung around one arm. She looked at the other woman with her glistening hazel eyes and a tiny bit of curiosity. “Miss... Mo.”
“Hi, Yazhi.” Mo Shan greeted her with a warm smile.
“Are you bringing that for the president, Ms Mo?”
Mo Shan had been visiting quite frequently in the past two days.
Today, she had brought a thermos with her. Lin Yazhi was sure that the president had just finished breakfast. Could he be able to eat some more?
Mo Shan smiled. “I heard that he got drunk last night, so I made soup to help clear his head.”
He got drunk last night and immediately she brought soup the next morning?
Amazing...
