The dumb wife died with hatred, and she was not obedient after rebirth

Chapter 188: Fortunately, now is not the worst time

Ling Zhao's eyes became even dimmer.

Oh, it's true.

He didn't want her child.

So when he said that he was busy and didn't have time to accompany her for prenatal checkups or to see her, a big part of the truth was that he didn't want to see her.

He used work as an excuse to avoid her.

After the child was born, he was unwilling to come to see her, and a big part of the truth was that he didn't want to see her.

The fact that she was the mother of his child annoyed him.

He even gave the child to Fan Wenxin to raise. He must regret letting her give birth to the child.

Oh, the truth is so cruel. In her previous life, she was pregnant and looking forward to the future of a family of three.

So stupid.

Huo Yixiu saw her reaction and thought she would be angry and jump up to argue with him, asking him why he didn't expect her child and that she loved him very much.

She looked so listless and lifeless that he felt a strange pain in his heart.

"Ling Zhao, I could have told you a lie to make you feel better and myself feel better. But I still choose to tell you the truth. This life is not the last life. We are here to find out the mistakes we made in the last life."

"I did think about not having children. I couldn't imagine raising a child with someone I hated. It would be so painful. But I still let you give birth to the child."

"I was so busy every day that I almost forgot that I had a daughter and a wife. Until I heard the news of your death, I was abroad at that time... I was still wondering if you had come up with another lame excuse to see me."

"When I returned to China and saw your tombstone, I finally realized that you were really gone."

"Haha, actually we didn't spend much time together, and I hardly saw you in the later period. In fact, I had already adapted to life without you... But since then, I can always see your shadow when I am half asleep, and you come to my dreams every day."

"I've thought about it for a long time. What do I still owe you? I promised my father that I would be responsible for you for the rest of my life. Why don't you let me go?"

"Until this life, I figured it out...I owed you."

Ling Zhao looked over without any emotion.

Huo Yixiu was still laughing to himself, laughing at himself.

He thought he had lived a happy life in his previous life. Marriage was not what he wanted, but he had a successful career. He brought the Huo family to unprecedented heights and made it a famous family at the top of the pyramid in South City. He had a beautiful, smart, cute, filial and sensible daughter who inherited his company, so that he would have successors. She married a man she liked and he approved of, and she would no longer suffer in a loveless marriage like him and Ling Zhao.

But now thinking about it, what he thought was perfect, his smart, well-behaved, filial daughter of the director, was born to her by Ling Zhao. How much regret would he have if he didn't have this child.

He will be lonely for the rest of his life.

The Junhai Kingdom that he spent his entire life building had no one to inherit.

How come I don't owe her this?

But in this life, Ling Zhao no longer needs him, nor does he like him anymore.

She is cold-hearted and afraid to love again.

Huo Yixiu regretted that he realized it too late and said he was protecting her in a self-righteous way.

He was also glad that now was not the worst time and he still had a chance.

But when the words came to his lips, he didn't know how to tell her, what he would do in the future, how to protect her self-esteem, and how to treat her well.

Even after I told her, she no longer believed it.

Huo Yixiu licked his chapped lips and said only one sentence at the end: "I have transferred Fan Wenxin out of the company headquarters."

He said nothing more and quietly left her room.

Ling Zhao's eyes moved slightly, and his gaze fell on the foot of the bed where he had been sitting.

The dent there had recovered, as if it had never been pressed in. The only proof was the slight wrinkles left by the bed sheet.

In the following days, Huo Yixiu lived in Jinxi Garden every day. He would sometimes go to Lingji to pick her up after get off work. But because he stayed in Beicheng for a week, the company had a lot of work, so he worked overtime at home every night.

It was impossible for Ling Zhao to make soup and send him coffee as he did in his previous life. Every day before get off work, his cousin would leave a pot of soup in the rice cooker. Sometimes it was Tremella porridge, sometimes it was red bean porridge, sometimes it was chicken soup, meat porridge, and it would simmer for a few hours so that he could serve it out when he was hungry.

Of course, although there was ready-made food to fill his stomach, no one served it to him. Huo Yixiu felt hungry and had to leave his study temporarily and go to the kitchen.

He would fill two bowls of soup, place them on a tray, and go to Ling Zhao's room to eat with her.

Ling Zhao didn't talk to him. He would talk about work, complain to relieve stress, or talk about the farm in Wangcun.

The farm is managed very well by someone. Over the past few months, pesticide-free, purely green organic vegetables and fruits, as well as chickens, ducks and geese that do not eat feed but only insects and grains, are delivered to the city every day by special personnel and vehicles. Some are sent to Ziqing Garden and some to Jinxi Garden.

Previously, he had planned to use these vegetables, fruits, chickens, ducks and geese to do favors. Ling Zhao didn't want to be the thoughtful Mrs. Huo who had to read people's faces and flatter them. Fan Wenxin was transferred away by Huo Yixiu, so no one was willing to do such a thing.

Huo's mother wanted to meet and greet the ladies in the upper circle, but there was no one to lead the way. Huo Yixiu used the recent events in the Huo family to persuade her to go out less to play cards and go shopping with others, and concentrate on her own education career.

Mother Huo listened to it, but she was old and used to having someone around to give her advice and help her with things, so she wanted to bring Fan Wenxin to her side.

"You asked her to take care of the renovation of that building. It's not a big deal. I asked her to help me run the training school. She has the heart to do it."

Huo Yixiu held the chopsticks, frowned slightly, and said calmly: "That building will be the headquarters of Junhai Technology in the future. Not only will Junhai move there, but there will also be many other important investment companies. You say that's not important?"

Huo's mother felt that her son had changed, becoming more domineering and no longer listening to her at all.

Mother Huo was unhappy and put down her bowl and chopsticks.

"So, to you, I am not important as your mother? The only important thing is that dumb woman?"

Huo's mother went to Junhai Technology and heard from a shareholder that Huo Yixiu stayed in Beicheng for a week, not taking care of any company affairs, and even donated a laboratory building to a medical school and gave away medical equipment for free.

Others may not know, but Huo's mother has already learned from Fan Wenxin that Huo Yixiu went there for Ling Zhao.

"Oh, her lover openly spoke for you at the meeting, and you think she is important to you?"

"Yi Xiu, I know you value the company and your career. But you can't ignore the Huo family's reputation for the sake of the company, right? So many people are laughing at you, can't you hear it!"

There was a crisp sound of splashing.

Huo Yixiu dropped the bowl, his face turning pale.
