C148 Farewell, Last Dance

In the hospital ward, Song Xiazhi leaned on her bed in a daze.

Her hand continued to stroke her lower abdomen.

Her tears fell quietly from the corner of her eyes. Even though she already had a child, Big Brother Xiao still chose Qiao Mo …

She closed her eyes. What meaning did she have in wanting this child?

This dirty child …

The phone by the side suddenly vibrated. It was a text message with an unfamiliar number.

"Since you killed my brother, don't blame me for spreading all your scandals! Xiao, too, too! "

Song Xiazhi was severely startled, this message was …

Her gaze fell on her lower abdomen, and she opened her pale, dry lips in disbelief. She stared blankly at her hands, as if she saw them covered in blood.

She clutched her head and screamed uncontrollably.

One report, one report, it was all preordained from the beginning.

What was she going to do, what would she do if that person actually broadcast those photographic negatives and videos? How could he face big brother Xiao?

She might as well die!

… ….

Xiao's Building, CEO's Office

Zhao Qian came in with a courier. "Boss, there's an anonymous courier addressed to you. The courier even asked you to do it personally."

Xiao Yan sat on the black class chair, frowned and took the delivery letter and opened it.

The things inside were wrapped very tightly, they were opened up layer after layer using the letter opener. When Xiao Yan reached the last layer, countless of photos were taken and with a "Hua la" sound, they all fell to the ground. There was also a small USB stick that landed crisply.

The photos that fell on the floor were filled with scenes of men and women holding grudges against each other …

Xiao Yan frowned even more as he picked up one of the papers.

The one who was fighting with the unfamiliar man was Song Xiazhi.

Zhao Qian, who was standing to the side, was also startled. He immediately bent down and prepared to clean up, "Boss, I think it must be a prank. I'll go deal with it right now."

But Xiao Yan stopped her, "Wait."

"Boss?"

"Did you see what the courier looked like?"

Zhao Qian nodded. "The surveillance cameras have taken. As long as he's in Seahold, it won't be difficult to find him."

"Find this person, and the person who caused this. For the time being, do not tell anyone about this matter. "

Zhao Qian understood. "I'll do it right away."

After Zhao Qian left the office, Xiao Yan carefully studied the photos. It was not a PS fusion, so if all of these were true, then what exactly was in the USB drive?

Inside the USB drive, it recorded the entire process of Song Xiazhi trying to donate blood essence underground.

Xiao Yan's heart shook. For a moment, all sorts of feelings welled up in his heart, feeling both surprised and happy.

Song Xiazhi had taken care of him for two years, so even if he did not love her, he still remembered her kindness toward him.

Amidst his surprise and joy, Xiao Yan also felt a little sympathy towards Song Xiazhi.

If all of these were true, then the child in Song Xiazhi's stomach would not be his.

Xiao Yan thought back to that night when he was drunk with Song Xiazhi. Although it was a little blurry, he could still vaguely remember that he was extremely drunk.

That night … Was it also a scam?

For a moment, Xiao Yan was not sure.

After tidying up the photos and USB on the floor, Zhao Qian checked and then pushed the door open.

"BOSS, I just checked and found out that Miss Song went to the private underground donor club two months ago. Moreover, the murder case that happened in the alley a month ago might be related to Miss Song."

"Keep investigating!"

"Yes, I'll go right away."

Xiao Yan leaned on the large chair, and let out a long breath.

He thought that in this lifetime, a child would stand between him and Qiao Mo.

However, towards this relationship, he'd still, in the end, never betrayed it.

He did not plan to tell Qiao Mo this matter until the truth was revealed.

He looked at the cell phone on the table and dialed a number.

His phone rang for a long time. However, the mechanical woman's voice indicated that the other party was in the midst of a conversation.

Xiao Yan frowned, who was Qiao Mo talking to at this time?

… ….

New Garden Villa.

Qiao Mo received a call from Huo Xing. She was busy mixing up small rice bucket's lunch, and had originally planned to go out after mixing up the dishes. She made an appointment with Xiao Yan to have lunch together at noon.

However, just before he left, he received a call from Huo Xing.

"Mo, I'm in Seahold. Let's meet up."

Qiao Mo pursed her lips. Whatever you need to face, what you need to solve, will be dealt with by you in an unrelenting manner.

"Okay, send the address to my cell phone and I'll leave immediately. "Huo Xing, I have something I want to say to you."

… ….

Qiao Mo arrived at the address Huo Xing gave him, a western restaurant with an elegant and tranquil environment.

Huo Xing was a gentleman like usual. After Qiao Mo arrived, he gracefully and considerately pulled her seat, allowing her to safely sit down.

Huo Xing was a perfect lover. He had always been, but …

"Huo Xing, I came here today to explain to you clearly that I am still Xiao Yan's wife now, and that in the future … It could still be. I can't take this ring anymore. "

Qiao Mo pushed the purple velvet box in front of him.

Inside was the wedding ring that Huo Xing had used to propose to her.

Huo Xing's gaze lightly fell on the velvet box. He pulled up the corner of his mouth and said with a bitter smile, "Could it be that between us, there's nothing else to say other than breaking up?"

"I'm sorry, I've delayed you."

Qiao Mo had a lot of guilt towards Huo Xing after all. In these past two years, he had looked after her, cared for her, and given her warmth. She was not a stone, and it was not possible for her not to feel it. There was no way to respond or to return the favor.

"Mo, you haven't even ordered anything yet."

Huo Xing handed the menu over to Qiao Mo. Qiao Mo originally wanted to reject, but the guilt in her heart caused her to shut up.

Just treat it as the last meal.

The phone on the table kept vibrating.

Qiao Mo looked over, the caller ID showed that it was Xiao Yan.

Huo Xing's sharp gaze fell on her caller ID.

"Aren't you going to answer?"

Qiao Mo was startled and picked up the phone.

"Hey, Ah Yan."

"Where are you?"

Xiao Yan who was on the other side looked at the address Huo Xing sent over and questioned Qiao Mo coldly.

However, Qiao Mo didn't know the situation. She only thought that she didn't accompany him for lunch.

"I-I can't accompany you to lunch today."

It was not convenient for Qiao Mo to tell her that she didn't know about Xiao Yan's personality when they met. Even if she did, she would probably be furious if she knew that she and Huo Xing had met alone.

On the other side, Xiao Yan snorted coldly, "Really?"

Qiao Mo bit her lips, "I'll explain it to you when I get home."

Qiao Mo immediately hung up, she only wanted to quickly end this lunch.

When they first came in, Qiao Mo did not notice, but at this moment, she realised that there was only one table in the dining hall.

Huo Xing booked the dining room. He snapped his fingers and a man and a woman in black played the cello gracefully under the dim lighting.

Qiao Mo only felt that this lunch was like sitting on pins and needles.

"Huo Xing, I …"

However, Huo Xing snatched away her words and said, "Mo, even if you want to break up, don't you want to give me the last bit of time? We've been dating for two years and we haven't really danced a dance. "

In between a dilemma, Huo Xing had already stood up. He bent his body slightly and reached out his palm towards her, "Dear Miss Qiao, may I have the honor of inviting you to dance?"

Qiao Mo frowned slightly. In Huo Rulie's eyes that was filled with deep emotions, Qiao Mo was not softhearted.

Even if it was in return for Huo Xing's care and tolerance towards her over the past two years, so what?

It was just a dance.

During the formal banquet, even if it was an invitation from a gentleman who was a stranger to her, she had no reason to reject it.

Moreover, this man had once given her warmth.

In the midst of his hesitation, Qiao Mo slowly reached out and covered his thick palm.

After jumping for an unknown amount of time, as the waltz rotated back and forth, Huo Xing suddenly grabbed her waist and hugged her tightly. He was practically holding her to the point where she couldn't breathe.

Qiao Mo resisted, "Huo Xing... "Don't do that!"

Huo Xing still did not seem to want to let go. His lips were practically right next to her ear as he spoke word by word, "If I had been like this earlier, would you have never returned to Xiao Yan's side? Qiao Mo, I should be more ruthless. I really did want you back then, I didn't let you go back to Seahold. If I really did that, you would still be mine now! The thing I regret the most is encouraging you to return to your homeland and look for Xiao Yan. I'm too confident in myself … "Mo, tell me, have you ever loved me, even the tiniest bit?"

Qiao Mo struggled, her face flushed red, but when Huo Xing asked the last sentence, his body froze.

Did you love him?

"I'm sorry."

"You know, I never wanted to hear that."

Huo Xing looked at Qiao Mo in pain, causing Qiao Mo's eyes to become wet.

He released her waist and Qiao Mo let out a long sigh of relief.

"I'm sorry, I'm leaving."

Qiao Mo turned around, carried her bag and prepared to leave.

Huo Xing grabbed her wrist and looked at her pleadingly. "I'll walk you out," he said. Even if it's just looking at you for the last time. I flew all the way from New York to Seahold just to have this farewell dinner with you and. It's real. I'm just looking at you a few times. "

Qiao Mo pursed her lips and did not refuse again.

When they arrived at the entrance of the dining hall, Qiao Mo turned his head and said to Huo Xing, "Let's send it here. I'll take a taxi myself."

With Huo Xing's sharp gaze, he saw the black Worldlord running towards him from afar. He lowered his head and smiled at Qiao Mo.

"Silence."

Before Qiao Mo could react, she was hugged tightly by Huo Xing.

Just as she was about to struggle, she heard Huo Xing slowly open his mouth and ask, "One last hug, is that okay?"

Struggling again made her seem pretentious. Even if she were to bid farewell to an ordinary friend, it wouldn't be a big deal.

Qiao Mo lifted his hand and hugged him back slightly.

She pursed her lips and sincerely wished him well. "I hope that you will meet something that is most worth meeting in the future."

Huo Xing's gaze was fixated on the man in the Venerable Class car not far away. Even though they were so far away, he could still feel the killing intent and coldness coming from the man through the windshield.

"Mo, in the end, you don't love me."

After Huo Xing released her, Qiao Mo bade farewell to him.

His entire body froze on the spot.

Why would Xiao Yan appear here?

No matter how slow his reaction was, Qiao Mo understood what was going on.

She walked quickly to the World's Herald.

The man had already got out of the car. He leaned against the car with a cold and calm look in his eyes.

Qiao Mo felt his scalp go numb. Damn it...
