Chapter 24: The Heartless
their place."Huo Yirou's face paled, as if recalling a painful memory, her entire being seemed to lose its vibrancy.Su He stepped forward to protect her, fighting back without showing any weakness: "...Seeing the familiar sports car chasing behind, Su He frowned slightly, wondering what Huo Chenxi was trying to do.
He designed her, just to hold her and sleep with her for one night
"Hold on tight!" Long Mao glanced at the rearview mirror and told Su He, then slammed his foot down on the gas pedal.
Huo Chenxi followed closely without any hesitation.
In the night, on an expansive suburban boulevard, two sports cars raced each other.
Taking advantage of his familiarity with the terrain, Long Maozi deliberately made a sharp turn at the intersection. Huo Chenxi, as expected, clung to him tightly.
Long Mao's eyebrow twitched with a hint of smugness. In an instant, he executed a beautiful quick stop and drift, reversing his direction to turn into the side road.
He Chen Xi came to a stop too late, could only watch helplessly as Su He sat in Long Mao Zhi's car and disappeared into the night.
He slammed his fist onto the steering wheel, knowing it was hopeless. Despite that, Huo Shenxi still turned the car around and chased after Su He's direction.
Besides Storm and Moon, a handsome and dashing foreign man appeared by her side.
A strong sense of crisis spread through his heart, as if he were truly about to lose Su He.
Even when getting a divorce certificate at the Civil Affairs Bureau, I didn't feel this intensely.
Su He, with a heart pounding in her chest, glanced at the rearview mirror. Seeing that Huo Chen Xi hadn't followed up, she felt a strange sense of unease.
"Fear, or worry about him" Long Mo looked sideways at him, a smile playing on his lips.
Su He looked at him: "Mr. Long's way of walking is really unique."
First time I knew, it turns out you can use speeding walk.
Long Mao smiled wryly: “I’ll take you to a good place!”
He found a parking spot, and Long Mao led Su He through the streets and alleys. In a remote corner of an old village community, they found a small, unassuming shop.
It's a very small shop, less than eight square meters. There are only two bamboo tables inside, but the shop is very clean, with a tranquil and cozy atmosphere that makes people feel comfortable.
No menu, whatever the boss makes, that's what the guests eat.
This peculiar pattern piqued Su He's curiosity.
The two of them drank some bamboo tube tea brewed with mountain spring water in the shop. The boss brought out three dishes, all of which Su He couldn't name.
Su He tasted it, the flavor was so fresh that she felt all the best she had ever eaten couldn't compare. She didn't care about her manners and ate with gusto.
Raising her head, Su He unintentionally met Long Mao's gaze, which was close to doting. Her heart skipped a beat, and the feeling of déjà vu she had become even stronger.
"Have we met before" Su He blurted out, his eyes filled with confusion.
Long Mao smiled without answering, and asked instead, “Have you eaten”
Su He touched his rumbling stomach, glanced at the clean plate, and nodded sheepishly.
Before she realized it, she had devoured about two-thirds of the dishes.
But, the taste here is so good. When I hosted him before, the food arrangements didn't even mention the most authentic local dishes. How did he discover this
"You're very familiar with City A," Su He said, gazing into Long Mao's deep blue eyes, her voice soft and measured.
It is not a question, but a statement.
He said that this was his first time here.
Long Mao smiled faintly: "I'm not lying to you, this is indeed my first time in City A. However, I have a friend here, so I've always been interested in City A. I did some research beforehand."
With a gentle and tender tone, Su He smiled knowingly: "Your friend must be very important, right"
Long Mao nodded slightly and said in a low voice, "It's very important. I can say she is the light of my life. When I was at my most painful and lost, she pulled me out and showed me the way."
When it comes to the most important people in life, he has deep and profound blue eyes that sparkle with affection, as if adorned with a thousand stars, shining brightly.
Su He looked at his heart couldn't help but move, proactively said: "Do you want to see him If you need it, I will do my best to cooperate here."
His gaze slowly fell on Su He's face, staring at her for a long time, Long Mao shook his head and smiled: "No need. I know she's fine now, that's enough!"
Two people got up and left. When Su He went to pay the bill, he was told that someone had already paid for it.
Mr. Long...
"Call me Amo!"
Su He hesitated: "This isn't very good, after all, you are a distinguished guest of the group."
Long Mao's smile: "If you consider me a friend, call me Ah Mao. At the group, you can address me as Mr. Long."
Such an honest and polite partner is definitely worth getting to know.
Su He readily agreed: "A Mao, can I still come to this place in the future"
Long Mao looked at Su He, who had a serious expression on his face, and suddenly smiled.
She was smarter than he thought, even discovering that this was his territory.
"As long as you're willing." Long Mao smiled faintly, "If you need help in the future, you can come here to find the boss too."
Su He was slightly surprised, and smiled before nodding.
The little shop was a bit off the beaten path. The two of them chatted as they walked toward the parking lot, but at the intersection they saw Huo Shenxi with a sullen face.
Seeing Long Mao, he rushed over without a word, raising his fist and smashing it toward his face.
Long Mao also wasn't weak, he immediately retaliated with a punch.
"Stop!" Su He shouted, watching the two of them fight.
Long Mao immediately stopped, but was struck by a punch anyway.
Seeing Huo Chenxi's fist come down again, Su He rushed forward without hesitation and stood in front of Long Mao, spreading her arms to shield her.
A powerful fist wind struck, and Huo Chenxi's fist stopped just short of her nose, less than thirty centimeters away.
With bloodshot eyes, Huo Chenxi glared at her fiercely: "Su He, do you know what you're doing"
Su He gritted her teeth and glared at him: "That's a question I should be asking you. Huo Chen Xi, what are you trying to do by constantly pestering me"
Huo Chenxi looked at Long Mozhi, who was protected behind her with a smug face, and suddenly lowered her eyes to stare at her own fist, sneering.
From the beginning, I knew she married him only for the Ho family's wealth and his status as heir.
But she was too good at pretending, pretending to have deep feelings for him, pretending that she couldn't live without him.
After a long time, he actually believed that she truly loved him and sincerely wanted to be with him, to spend their whole lives together.
"Su He, you provoked me first," Huo Chen Xi grabbed her wrist abruptly, his sharp eyes like daggers piercing through her.
Su He felt her wrist bones were about to be crushed. She gritted her teeth and reminded him, "We've been divorced for a long time."
Long Mao noticed Su He's pain hidden behind her face, and stepped forward, dangerously staring at Huo Chen Xi: "Let go, you hurt her!"
Huo Chenxi stared straight at Su He, asking in a nearly cruel tone, "Can someone without a heart feel pain"
Of the two, who is it that has no heart
Unable to bear it any longer, Su He suddenly extended his other hand and made a gesture.
A shadow appeared silently behind Huo Chenxi, and with a sudden blow, Huo Chenxi was knocked unconscious without being prepared.
"Throw him to a deserted place, the farther the better!" Looking at the unconscious man, Su He ordered angrily.
The Dark Guard took orders and carried Huo Chenxi away into the night.
Long Mao stared at Su He in astonishment and silently gave her a thumbs-up.
Now she won't be bullied by others anymore, that's great!sounds weird. 。He had finally managed to track her down, only to find that she was with a blond-haired, blue-eyed foreigner. 。Every time he saw them, he naturally assumed the foreigner was her boyfrie...
