Chapter 336

He wanted to love this woman.

Because she was worth it.

The madness in this foreign land over these past few days, the traces of their pleasure left everywhere in the hotel, all served as proof that he liked this woman.

It was just that...

Huo Jingyan frowned.

Ye Yaoguang raised her hand and let it rest gently between his brows, "Why are you frowning again? Frowning every day makes it easy to get wrinkles, you know!"

"It's nothing."

Ye Yaoguang felt a bit nervous inside, and she said softly, "If, one day we have a child, what should we do?"

Upon hearing the word 'child', Huo Jingyan suddenly had an image appear in his mind of Jiang Nannan telling him they were going to have a child, a child of the two of them; Jiang Nannan's anticipation for the child was his own anticipation.

Thinking of Jiang Nannan, Huo Jingyan's expression changed abruptly.

"What's wrong?" Seeing Huo Jingyan's suddenly distant and cold demeanor, Ye Yaoguang's heart gave a fierce jolt.

Huo Jingyan's eyes were dark and gloomy, and a chill radiated from his body, "I used protection; you won't get pregnant."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yaoguang's eyes flickered.

"Sometimes even with protection, there can be accidents. President Huo, if—I mean if—this accident happens, should I give birth to it?"

Huo Jingyan's face was as cold as frost, and he replied with almost no hesitation, "Get an abortion. I don't want children right now."

Upon hearing this, Ye Yaoguang bit her lip tightly.

He didn't want children...

He was truly heartless.

No matter what methods she used, he remained so heartless and unyielding; could it be that he really only wanted Jiang Nannan to bear his children?

Jiang Nannan was clearly inferior to her in every way.

The driver heard Huo Jingyan's words, and he was not surprised.

Although President Huo and Secretary Ye were entangled, in his view, President Huo simply treated Secretary Ye as a plaything.

Ye Yaoguang bit her lip and replied in an apparently obedient manner, "Alright, I know, I know you just want to spend more time with me as a couple."

She believed that with her methods, Huo Jingyan would sooner or later stop caring about Jiang Nannan entirely.

Shu Xia had been busy all day, and she had been so focused at noon that she forgot the time.

It wasn't until she was tired and went to the restroom that she realized it was almost time to get off work.

She stretched, returned to the workshop, and finished up her tasks.

Then she prepared to leave work.

When leaving, she ran into Gu Lao and Gu Cheng, who was behind Gu Lao.

When Gu Cheng saw Shu Xia, he was a bit at a loss, "Shu Xia."

"How is your leg recovering?" Shu Xia smiled and nodded, then looked toward Gu Cheng's leg.

Gu Cheng immediately took two steps and did a turn to show Shu Xia, "It's recovered quite well, I just can't walk fast; walking slowly is fine. Are you used to working here? If my grandfather has arranged too much work for you, you can go on strike."

Gu Lao turned back and tapped Gu Cheng on the head, "What nonsense are you spouting? Do I, your grandfather, look like someone who exploits employees?"

Rubbing his head, Gu Cheng cried out in pain, "Is Grandfather trying to hit me until I'm a fool?"

Watching Gu Cheng bickering with Gu Lao, Shu Xia smiled and said, "I am very happy working here, and everything I do is what I love."
