Chapter 567 - 565 Love Burned to Ashes (Part 5)
Later, Yuan Yumeng reached out again but there was no response from Ye Hao. She suddenly realized he might be a bit angry, but why was he angry?It felt inexplicable.
But she still listened to his words; Ye Zheng’s departure had a significant impact on her. Initially, she really wanted to just leave with him, as if her entire life had lost its color, everything looked dark, food lost its taste, flowers lost their fragrance, and the days lost their charm.
Actually, she hadn’t expected Ye Zheng would have such a huge influence on her, considering they knew each other for such a short time and were together for such a short period.
Gradually, she seemed to get used to this kind of life, not too sad but not too happy either, sometimes like a person on a spiritual journey.
Life is still so long, she really shouldn’t continue to be so downcast.
If Ye Zheng were still alive, he definitely wouldn’t like to see her like this.
At this moment, Sister-in-law Zhang stood beside her, looking at her in a daze, wanting to say something but inexplicably not knowing where to start—
"Sister-in-law Zhang, could you bring me a mirror, please?"
"Oh, sure." Sister-in-law Zhang immediately rummaged through boxes and cabinets and handed a delicate small mirror to Yuan Yumeng.
Yuan Yumeng looked at the woman in the mirror with slightly sallow skin, so thin she was almost unrecognizable, and murmured, "So I really have... lost so much weight. I tried so hard to lose weight before but never succeeded, and this time I actually did."
"...Ma’am, being too thin isn’t good for your health either, you see your complexion has never improved." Sister-in-law Zhang sighed beside her.
"Yes." Yuan Yumeng smiled slightly at the mirror, "From now on... I won’t be like this, I will slowly become happier, I still have many things to do."
"Beauty, this is what you hoped for too!"
After saying that, the woman drew a smiling face on the mirror with her hand—
At this moment, the sun was shining brightly outside, fragrant and splendid.
...
When Huo Junting returned home, just like last time, there was a very sumptuous dinner. The woman sat at her place with a faint smile, and as soon as she saw him, she said, "You’re back, sit down! I didn’t make any of this, they’re all takeout I ordered, Sister-in-law Zhang and the family have all been given a holiday by me, it’s just the two of us."
The man rarely hesitated, but this time he didn’t respond for a while. He put down the briefcase in his hand and walked to the main seat, "What’s today? Wedding anniversary?"
"Do you think I would celebrate a wedding anniversary?" Yuan Yumeng asked with a smile.
Huo Junting looked at her face seriously, seeing her smiling somewhat unrestrainedly, and shook his head saying, "No, definitely not. If it were Ye Zheng’s wedding anniversary, you would definitely remember."
"That’s all in the past..." Yuan Yumeng lowered her eyes and picked up the wine glass on the table, "Let’s not mention him today! Let’s talk about us, brother..."
This word ’brother’ sent Huo Junting into an ice cellar. He forced himself to smile and nodded, "Do you have something to say?"
"Actually, I should have recognized you earlier, but at that time, I didn’t know why..." Saying this, Yuan Yumeng sipped the red wine, "But now there’s no point in mentioning that. Now we’ve acknowledged each other. Let’s talk! After being adopted by the Huo Family, how was it?"
Huo Junting rested his hands on the table, "Indeed, there were no worries about clothing and food, but the mental pressure was quite high. My adoptive father... was quite strict."
"So it seems, otherwise you wouldn’t be as excellent as you are now."
Huo Junting wanted to hear her praise him, face-to-face praise, but hearing her say it so calmly, he knew he no longer had a chance—
Sure enough, in the next second, he heard her say: "Let’s divorce."
