Chapter 57: A Man's Dark Thoughts

r intuition was right.Ho Shaoting finished his cigarette and then leaned in to kiss her.They kissed for a while, on and off. Wen Man woke up a little, leaning against his shoulder and murmuring softly...Wen Man also has a bit of a temper.

She had a falling out with Huo Shaoting and didn't bother with him after coming back.

She took a shower, washing away the faint smell of oil smoke from her body, and then leaned against the washbasin to take care of her skin.

Ho Shaoting hadn't treated her poorly; she had only been there for two days when he had several high-end skincare products delivered. Wen Man didn't ask him and directly opened them to use. She thought, that was probably some of the man's dark and secretive thoughts.

Who doesn't love soft and delicate skin

After smoothing down her upper body, she bent over to massage her calves. Wen Man had a great figure, and even such simple movements were incredibly alluring.

At least Huo Shaoting was flirted with.

He walked over and confidently hugged her from behind. Wen Man was startled, but instead of pushing him away, she let him do as he pleased.

After a moment, he whispered warmly in her ear, "Did you get any on you"

Wen Man guessed he had calmed down, so she followed suit: "I just arrived this evening."

He stopped but remained close behind her, in a mood to chat. "What do you want to do after the trial is over You can't just bring Jiang Sheng as your only student, right"

Wen Man's mind was in a bit of a mess, and she followed his train of thought, saying: "After things settle down, I want to teach at a different place."

Ho Shao-ting gently nibbled on her ear.

"In a few years, I'll send you to study in England"

Wen Man Qing woke up a little, she also heard the meaning in his words.

His relationship with her wouldn't last. When the novelty wore off, he would send her abroad as compensation and to keep her away from Gu Changqing, so as not to affect Huo Mingzhu's marriage.

Wen Man didn't ask him pretentiously: If he went abroad, would he go to see her

She knows he won't.

When he walked her out, that was the end of them.

If this is his rule of the game, Wen Man is willing to abide by it. She's not someone who doesn't know right from wrong.

Probably because Wen Man was docile and obedient, Huo Shao Ting was in a good mood. He held her slender waist and told her about a piece of gossip from today, making Wen Man's face blush and her heart beat faster, her legs also feeling a little weak.

She was incredibly sweet and adorable.

Ho Shao-ting turned her body, pressing her against the dressing table and kissing her. This kiss was definitely different from before, full of a spicy taste...

Wen Man thought he was a beast.

She never dared to doubt Lawyer Huo's health again; he was practically bursting with energy!

Just as they were lost in a haze of confusion, Wen Man's phone rang.

The ringtone is Bai Wei's number.

She nudged Huo Shaoting: "I... need to take a call."

Huo Shaoting reached out and took her phone, then put it on speaker in front of her. Wen Man was speechless. She thought Huo Shaoting was sometimes childish; their relationship didn't seem to require such check-ins.

She did not avoid him and spoke to Bai Wei.

"Hey!"

Bai Wei frowned over there: “Wen Man, what’s wrong with your voice”

"Huh No."

Bai Wei joked with her: "If I didn't know you were single, I would have thought you were with a man...you know!"

Wen Man's face flushed red, and she muttered under her breath.

Ho Shaoting leaned into her ear, chuckling softly, "She's right!"

Wen Man was afraid Bai Wei would hear, so she covered her bathrobe with one hand and ran into the master bedroom, "Bai Wei, I have something to talk to you about. Can we meet tomorrow"

Because of Huo Shaoting's intervention, the Wen family's property was unsealed. Wen Man wants to return Bai Wei's money to her.

Bai Wei also heard that Wen Boyan was released on bail, and she was happy for Wen Man.

After a few pleasantries, Bai Wei got to the point of her call: "I have two things to tell you! You know that Gu Shi is being targeted, right My husband told me that Gu Changqing is in hot water and might even end up in jail! Serves him right... just thinking about it makes me feel good."

She mentioned Gu Changqing, and Wen Man was afraid Huo Shaoting would be unhappy.

She tilted her head and looked at him...tiffened.He said, once upon a time...Huo Shaoting listened to the rapid breathing on the phone and couldn't help but chuckle: "Forgotten Christmas Eve!"Wen Man clenched her fingertips around the phone...
