Chapter 730: Zhang Chongguang: I Can Give Up Anything!
out of the hospital, she ran into an acquaintance at the door.Gu Changqing's mother and sister Gu Jingjing.They carried several large bags of imported fruit, chatting as they walked. They must have c...Two men looked at each other, gazing intently.
Zhang Chongguang looked at the man who had done so much for him. He still remembered when Huo Shaoting was young and handsome, and now he too worried about his children like any other father.
He was unable to speak about Hsi's condition.
He thought Huo Shaoting must know, he just wanted him to make a statement, such as saying from now on he had nothing to do with the Huo family. Such a result was too trivial for him. Zhang Chongguang thought of Huo Xi lying in a pool of blood, and even he couldn't forgive himself.
In the study, it was quiet and still, with only the sound of breathing.
For a long time, Zhang Chongguang gently knelt before Huo Shaoting. He knew in his heart that he didn't even deserve to kneel here. Huo Xi was the pearl of Huo Shaoting's palm, but he had tortured her to suicide.
At that moment, he forgot to breathe and forgot his heartbeat.
At that moment, he had actually compromised.
Zhang Chongguang's voice was very low: "Dad, I will give Huo Xi and the child all of the company and all my property. I don't want anything, and the children will also stay with Huo Xi."
"Does Hoxi need money"
"With our house in such a state, what use is all that money Glory… That child was born into an incomplete family. How do you expect people to explain to her why she doesn't have a father from the start"
……
Ho Shao-ting was extremely depressed.
He rarely smokes anymore because Wen Man doesn't allow it, but at this moment he wants to have a cigarette.
He took a cigarette from the pack, placed it between his lips and lit it with a downward motion of his head. He turned his back and drew slowly on it, trying to calm himself down...
After a long silence, he spoke in a low voice: "Chongguang, you and Hoxi haven't been married for a long time. Your actions should land you in jail for several years, but for the sake of Mianmian and Ruirui, I'll give Hoxi the decision-making power... But..."
He spoke for a long time, every word carefully considered.
After a long silence, Huo Shaoting continued, “Just don’t come again. Don’t appear in front of Huo Xi and don't come home again… If you want to see Mianmian and Ruirui, you can contact the housekeeper at home, and I will make arrangements. Chongguang, I'm getting old, I can't bear the pain of losing my children... Once is enough!”
Zhang Chongguang listened in a daze.
His clenched fingers trembled, for he had heard the meaning in Huo Shaoting's words —
By this age, he has lost his children.
It's Zhang Chongguang!
Pain surged over him like a tidal wave, Zhang Chongguang stiffened completely. His words came out in a trembling voice, his teeth chattering even as he spoke. But he held firm and said yes, he said he would never appear before Huo Xi again, never bother her, never bother the child. He would sign a document relinquishing his parental rights to the Huo family, permanently.
When Zhang Chongguang was saying these things, Huo Shaoting kept his back to him.
Only the back was so lonely.
Zhang Chongguang looked up at him and softly said, "Dad, I'm sorry!"
Huo Shaoting's body stiffened slightly. He didn't turn around, but simply took another cigarette from the pack... His fingers trembled as he lit it.
Zhang Chongguang kept staring at him.
How he longed for Huo Shaoting to whip him again, or slap him a few times and roar at him... But no, there was only the calm cutting and negotiating.
Later, Huo Shaoting left.
Zhang Chongguang knelt for a long time, until his knees went numb... When it was late afternoon, the butler in the villa came in with a troubled expression: "Mr. Zhang, you should go back!"
Zhang Chongguang asked him, "Where is Huo Xi I want to see her again."
The housekeeper paused for a moment and then whispered, "It's best we go back!"
When Zhang Chongguang stepped out of the Huo residence, dusk had settled, casting a somber mood over everything.
He should have walked to the car and left, but he couldn't help himself. He walked to where he and Ho Xi had planted the maple tree all those years ago. The maple tree was gone, and in its place was a small patch of tulips.
In winter, all the leaves are withered.
The butler appeared out of nowhere and said softly, "It's the mistress's wish. She is personally taking care of it now."
Zhang Chongguang's nose felt sour.
He asked, “How is Auntie Wen doing”
The housekeeper sighed softly, "How could it be good This past six months have been truly worrisome... Well, Mr. Zhang, what's the point of me saying all this"
The housekeeper shook his head and left.
In the twilight, only Zhang Chongguang stood there alone. He slowly squatted down and gently touched the withered yellow leaf... He thought, next year, this place would be covered in flowers again.
But he could no longer appreciate it.
Zhang Chongguang left in a hurry, he didn't even have time to put on his coat... His figure seemed thin and lonely. Holding the car door handle, the cold wind blew into his mouth, causing him to cough several times.
He was accompanied by Xiao Guang.
Zhang Chongguang hadn't seen him in a long time, he really wanted to hug the child, but he didn't know if RuiRui was willing to let him. Father and son stared at each other for a long time, RuiRui ran away, after a while Zhang Chongguang heard a child crying "wuwu" from behind the grass.
Zhang Chongguang unlocked the car door.
He walked slowly over, taking careful, light steps, but he still woke up RuiRui.
The proud little one immediately wiped away her tears, glanced at him, and walked away with Xiao Guang.
Zhang Chongguang called out to him softly from behind.
"Rueru!"
Xiao Zhang Rui's body froze. After a long time, he turned his head back. The child's expression was very complex. He shouted at Zhang Chongguang: "Mom is angry, you just coax her. Why did you find other women Why did you force Mom to be like this now Mom isn't the same mom she used to be, I hate you!"
The little guy was utterly depressed. After shouting, he burst into tears again.
He has always loved his father, from childhood to adulthood. But because of the weight his father holds in his heart, he can't accept this even more.
Zhang Chongguang's heart was filled with indescribable sadness.
He walked over and crouched down, hugging Ruirui. Ruirui refused to cry and let him go.
Zhang Chongguang did not let go.
He held Rueru's small body tightly, murmuring repeatedly, "I'm sorry, Rueru. I'm so sorry!"
Rueru struggled in his arms.
His small fists pounded on Zhang Chongguang's shoulder, He cried until he was tired, he lay on Zhang Chongguang's shoulder and sobbed. He was too young to understand grown-up things, he didn't understand why his father had loved his mother so much before, but their family had become like this...
……
As Zhang Chongguang left, he sat in the car, lost in thought for a long while.
He knew he was not welcome here.
He should leave as soon as possible.
But, that's just it. Now that he's leaving from here, he can never step foot in again. Even if he wants to see his child, he has to make an appointment with the servants. In other words, he and Ho Xi have finally reached their end.
His feelings for Huo Xi were like grains of sand slipping through his fingers.
The tighter you grip, the faster the sand slips away.
She had told him, he couldn't hold her down, how long could he possibly hold her A year, maybe two At the time, he said he would keep her for as long as it took, but he hadn't expected this, hadn't expected Huo Xi to use such a brutal way to tell him how much she loathed him, how little she wanted to stay by his side.hing in half the store.Unexpectedly, Huo Yunsi held Lin Xi in his arms and tried on pairs of shoes one by one... He also carefully selected pants and shirts, looking meticulous and calculating.Aunt Li...
