After indulging in aimless thoughts for a while, she closed her eyes. Nothing else mattered anymore; from now on, she would sever all ties with Gu Jizhou’s world!
————Yunqi Academy————
The next morning, Che Huan got up very early. When she ca downstairs, she saw Qin Shaojin had just returned from his morning run.
Qin Shaojin picked up a towel to wipe the sweat from his face, then pointed to the docunt bag on the coffee table, "Inside are so pieces of evidence I’ve collected. Take a look."
Che Huan walked over, sat down, opened the docunt bag, and pulled out a bunch of photos and CDs.
Her face flushed after looking through just a few of them.
They were all indecent photos of Gu Jizhou with won, and as for the CDs, they were probably akin to the legendary adult movies—there was no need to watch them to know they contained X-rated scenes!
Qin Shaojin sat aside, "I think these should be sufficient to prove he’s the one at fault in the marriage. I’ll fight for more benefits for you."
"..." Che Huan wanted to say she didn’t care about the property, but in the end, she remained silent.
Qin Shaojin looked at the European-style wall clock in the living room, "I have sothing to do this morning. It’s not convenient to hail a cab here, and Huo Brother is heading to the city. He can give you a lift on the way."
"No need," said Che Huan, but as she finished speaking, she saw Huo Jinnan descending the stairs, which suddenly made it hard for her to breathe.
Qin Shaojin looked towards Huo Jinnan, "You didn’t bring a car, so take mine and return it later. In a few days Huo Bei can bring it back to ."
Huo Jinnan grunted in acknowledgnt, then looked at Che Huan, "Let’s go."
"..." Che Huan took her bag and headed to the door, glancing in the direction of the group leader and Huo Jinnan, "You guys go ahead, I’ll hail a cab myself."
Seeing Qin Shaojin heading to the kitchen, Huo Jinnan shot Che Huan a sidelong glance, "Want to carry you to the car?"
"..." Che Huan’s breath suddenly tightened, "I’m not yet divorced from Gu Jizhou, Mr. Huo... "
Huo Jinnan’s eyes, deep and unfathomable, glanced at Che Huan, "Can I carry you once you’re divorced?"
Che Huan stood there, avoiding eye contact, playing with her fringe, "That’s not what I an!"
Huo Jinnan remained silent, his large hand grasping her wrist.
Che Huan struggled but couldn’t break free.
Holding her hand, Huo Jinnan strode towards the Porsche parked nearby, opened the passenger door, forcefully pushed Che Huan inside, then leaned over to pull the seatbelt tight across her waist, his gaze sharp as a blade as he swept over her, shut the car door, and headed to the driver’s seat.
As he took his place behind the wheel, Che Huan turned away, looking in the opposite direction.
They hadn’t gone far when suddenly a car from the side followed them.
Che Huan quickly recognized it as Gu Jizhou’s black Ferrari SA Aperta, and turned to glance at Huo Jinnan.
At that mont, her phone rang.
She fumbled in her bag and saw it was Gu Jizhou’s number—since it wasn’t saved, only the digits were displayed.
Huo Jinnan briefly glanced at it, took her phone with his slender fingers, ended the call, then dialed his own number, picked up his phone, and connected the call, tossing both phones into the drawer beside him, and calmly said, "If you didn’t sleep well, you can rest there for a while."
"..."
How could she possibly sleep now?
Che Huan viewed the black Ferrari SA Aperta in the rearview mirror.
It took a long while before she turned her head back to look at Huo Jinnan.
Not a ripple appeared on Huo Jinnan’s face; he didn’t even spare Che Huan a glance, his slender fingers smoothly handling the steering wheel as he focused on the road ahead.
Then ca a long silence. Inside the car, only their breathing could be heard, intertwined with each other.
