Chapter 625

A wave of ominous premonitions washed over him.

"Could tomorrow be straight-up hell mode? How on earth did Shu Xia make the boss angry? The boss was actually letting another woman get close to him!"

Looking closer, the woman even looked a bit like Shu Xia.

Did he find a substitute?

It's over.

He wouldn't be sleeping tonight.

——

After Huo Jingyan returned to the Huo Family, he called Qiao Muting several times.

No one answered.

Asleep at this hour?

He tossed his phone aside and then examined the few items laid out on the table.

They were all found in Ye Yaoguang's home.

He had seen all of these before, and at the time, he had felt a momentary doubt; these items did not match Ye Yaoguang's style or temperament, so why would she carry them?

And this painting.

It was also inconsistent with the decor style of her home; she was definitely not the type of person who liked to collect such paintings.

Therefore, these items were somewhat inexplicable, as if she had deliberately wanted him to see them.

When he first saw this painting, he had felt an impulse that having a child with Ye Yaoguang wouldn't be bad, but this thought had only just flashed through his mind before vanishing completely.

Looking back now, this must have been intentional on Ye Yaoguang's part.

"Ye Yaoguang, you are courting death!" Cold light surged in Huo Jingyan's eyes, his voice icy to the extreme.

Meanwhile, Ye Yaoguang had just returned home.

Her plane ticket was already bought for an early flight tomorrow morning.

She had just confirmed with her mother that her stepfather was already on his way to Jing City, and they knew she had money on hand now and wanted her to give all the money to them so they could enjoy life.

They said that since she was still young anyway, she could continue to earn more.

They knew her current address clearly now.

She hadn't expected Huo Jingyan to truly be as good as his word; he hated her to the core!

Even now, she couldn't understand it; even if he didn't like her, after spending this much time together, shouldn't she have had some place in his heart?

"Huo Jingyan, are you heartless?"

"You already know my history, so you should understand that I am the victim who most needs care, concern, and love! Do you not feel the slightest sympathy for what I've been through?"

All of her questions seemed to turn into mockery of her at this moment.

The next moment, she returned home.

When she went back to her room to pack her luggage, she looked sharply toward the wall.

The painting that had originally hung there was now gone.

Her eyes widened as she keenly realized something, and she immediately began to frantically search for the other items.

The things that had been in the vanity drawer were also gone!

"How is this possible? Huo Jingyan, did you sense something? Impossible, how could you have sensed anything? No, it's impossible, the house must have just been burgled."

Her hands trembling uncontrollably, she called the airport, "I want to change my booking. Is there a flight tonight? As long as I can leave Jing City, any flight will do."

"I'm sorry, there are no seats available on any flights tonight," the staff member replied.

Ye Yaoguang went limp and collapsed onto the floor.

"Take the train, yes, take the train and leave!"

She had to leave before dawn, leave right now!

If Huo Jingyan confirmed the truth, she would truly be finished!

When Shu Xia woke up the next morning, she did not see Qiao Muting.

While making breakfast, she received a phone call.
