Chapter 716: Huo Xi, Give Me Another Chance!

    

guang understood what she meant.Zhang Chongguang really understood. He sat in the car, watching her walk towards the villa.In the living room of a villa.Ho Shao-ting and Lu Qian sat face to face on th...During the second trial, Zhang Chongguang saw Huo Xi.

He had no hope, but when his car pulled up to the courthouse, a familiar figure got out of a white BMW across the street. It was his wife, whom he hadn't seen in ages.

It had been a while since they last saw each other, and Ho Xi had visibly lost weight.

When she closed the car door, she also saw Zhang Chongguang. As he was about to get out of the car to speak to her, she walked into the courthouse first, leaving him only with her back.

Zhang Chongguang chased after him: "Huo Xi!"

She stopped short, his steps slowing from a brisk pace to a cautious one, as if afraid of startling her. When he was just a step away, he wanted to speak to her, so many words swirling in his mind, but at that moment, he couldn't utter a single one.

He only muttered her name: "Hoxi."

Ho Xi didn't turn around: "Let's talk about it in court!"

Zhang Chongguang's heart ached, but before he could speak, Huo Xi was already far away.

For four hours, during the trial, he never took his eyes off her. She had lost weight...her hair was back to its original brown color. He vaguely remembered him saying once that she looked better with black hair, so she always kept it black.

Now she has dyed her hair back.

Zhang Chongguang knew what this meant, his face paled involuntarily.

The second trial hadn't reached a verdict. The judge said they needed to deliberate and set a new date for the announcement. Huo Xi expressed no objections, she briefly chatted with Lawyer Wang and then left. Zhang Chongguang caught up with her in the parking lot outside.

"Hoxi!"

Huo Xi had already opened the car door. Hearing his voice, she turned her head. Her face was calm, without a hint of emotion. She asked him, "What needs to be said has already been said by my lawyer in court, Zhang Chongguang... Is there anything else we need to say to each other"

"This!"

Zhang Chongguang took out the glass ball from his pocket and stared at her softly, "I saw this in the bedside drawer, Huo Xi... We had a chance to mend things between us, didn't we"

In the sunlight, the glass was dazzlingly beautiful.

Huo Xi remembered that she had even blistered her fingers from doing this.

Zhang Chongguang spoke again: “The maple leaves here were picked from the old house. That maple tree was planted by us when we were children, Huo Xi, you won't forget those, and I won't let you forget them! That night I went to see that tree, it grew very tall and beautiful...”

He spoke with passion, but Hosi heard him with numbness.

She smiled faintly and said, “That doesn't mean anything! If letting you misunderstand us gives us a chance, if misunderstanding me would make me rekindle old feelings, then I'll cut down that tree.”

Zhang Chongguang was stunned, and after a long silence, he softly asked: "Don't you have any old feelings"

Old love

Ho Xi only found it laughable. When he repeatedly dragged her face through the mud, why didn't he reminisce about old feelings Didn't he ever consider their past when he was kissing Song Yun in that apartment

Suddenly, Huo Xi caught sight of Song Yun out of the corner of his eye.

She stood in a corner by the courthouse entrance, looking pitifully forlorn.

Ho Xi's expression grew increasingly cold. She leaned against the car door, her voice flat: "When you came back from abroad, I shouldn't have been with you."

The car passed by Zhang Chongguang, Huo Xi didn't even glance at him. It was as if he were a stranger to her. There used to be so much adoration in her eyes, she remembered how thrilled she was at the prospect of every meeting and date with him when they first started dating... Now, she couldn't bear to look at him even once.

A white BMW drove away slowly.

Zhang Chongguang looked for a long time, Songyun wanted to come up but seeing Zhang Chongguang's expression, she still didn't dare...

*

From that day on, it seemed Huo Xi had returned to a normal life.

She no longer avoided Zhang Chongguang, and occasionally they would meet in their shared circle.

Friday at 10 PM, at the Crouching Tiger Institute.

Zhang Chongguang had had too much to drink. He leaned against the wall as he walked down the corridor of the clubhouse, reaching into his pocket for a cigarette but failing to light it after several tries.

Qin, the secretary, caught up and persuaded, "Zhang Zong, the doctor said you should quit smoking and drinking."

Zhang Chongguang said nonchalantly, "It's just a suggestion! There are always times when you have to smoke and drink at social gatherings."

Qin's secretary remained silent.

She vaguely remembered that during the most crucial time of founding the company, Zhang always kept his social engagements to a minimum...Back then, he and Lawyer Huo were very close, so he cherished his health.

But now…

Qin's secretary was deep in thought when she saw Huo Xi and Jing Zong walking over together from the opposite side, their appearance suggesting they had just finished socializing.

Tonight Jingrui begged Huo Xi for a favor. Now that the matter was settled, he couldn't help but say as he walked: "Thanks to you for this, really! I thank you on behalf of my eight generations of ancestors!"

"Alright, I guess I'm still a little younger than you!"

Ho Xi said lightly, but the next second her eyes stopped. She saw Zhang Chongguang, who was drunk.

That man was wearing a white shirt, he looked handsome and elegant. He had a cigarette between his fingers but hadn't lit it. He must have seen her as his eyes were fixed on her side, deep and unreadable.

After a long, lingering gaze, Huo Xi said softly, "Let's go!"

After a moment of surprise, Jingrui immediately nodded. "I'll take you downstairs."

As they brushed past Zhang Chongguang, Jingrui gave him a slight nod, shaking his legs as a greeting... Unexpectedly, the next second, Zhang Chongguang grabbed Huo Xi's hand and slammed her against the wall of the club hallway with a bang.

Huoxi regained his senses: "Zhang Chongguang, let me go!"

She struggled, but Zhang Chongguang used his strength to hold her down firmly. Under the crystal chandelier, his eyes were bloodshot and terrifying as he stared at her and asked: "Why are you with Jingrui You can chat and laugh with him, but you won't even look at me"

Huo Xi couldn't break free, she tilted her head back and glared at him coldly.

Her eyes were full of disdain.

"I don't like the look in your eyes!"

"Zhang Chongguang, are you crazy!"

"Yes, I'm crazy...I wish I could die with you, Ho Xi...Does it hurt It hurts me so much right now."

……

Jing Rui and Qin's secretary, on the other hand, finally came to their senses.

Jǐngruì, with a burst of courage, reached out to pull the person back, while babbling: "Chóngguāng ge, please calm down. It's fine to speak your mind, but you can't just go around kissing people! We're at a club, in broad daylight!"

He pulled a few times, but was roughly thrown away by Zhang Chongguang.

Jing Rui dared not move.

Zhang Chongguang held Huo Xi, burying his entire face in her neck and panting. After a long while, he raised his eyes and stared at Huo Xi, asking: "Why can't I kiss my own wife"

Huoxi was also struggling to breathe.

There was still blood on the corner of her mouth, Zhang Chongguang's. She had bitten him.

She coldly glared at him and asked, "Zhang Chongguang, why do you say that"

Hosy pushed him away in the momentum.

She left without looking back. Jing Rui wanted to see her off, but Ho Xi refused. Jing Rui turned back to Zhang Chongguang: "Brother Chongguang, I'll send you back! Ai, you're so drunk!"s sister went out, she would also let him hold her hand... how nice that would be. Probably because of blood ties, Zhang Baiyan treated him very well, but in his heart, he was still not as good as Qin...
