Chapter 292: Chapter 292 Until Death Do Us Part (2)
Yun Xuefei lowered her eyes.
“Xuefei…” Huo Yanzhao held her hand and brought it to his lips, giving it a gentle kiss, “everything will pass, I promise.”
“It won’t.” Yun Xuefei suddenly struggled free of him, her body starting to tremble, “Yanzhao, there’s no chance left.”
“Who says there’s no chance left? Xuefei, we…” Huo Yanzhao desperately tried to grasp her hand, but Yun Xuefei seemed to erupt suddenly, fiercely pushing him away and then tremblingly turning on the laptop beside her.
Soon, the screen lit up, and Huo Yanzhao saw the photo on the screen.
He suddenly felt as if all the blood in his body had been drained!
“After we came back from the hospital last night, I received this…” Yun Xuefei muttered, “I kept telling myself that this photo was Photoshopped, and I thought of many ways to verify it, but the final result told me that the photo is real, untouched by anyone…”
Huo Yanzhao snapped the laptop shut with a “slap,” his entire body tensing and trembling: “Xuefei, don’t look!”
“It’s no use, I’ve already seen it.” Her voice was bitter and ephemeral, “Since last night, this photo has been in my mind… I keep telling myself it might be Photoshopped, but it’s not. So I can only keep drawing my designs, keep drawing to temporarily forget…”
Her voice was extremely hoarse, and her dark, deep eyes revealed a vulnerability and confusion akin to a little girl: “Yanzhao, tell me… what should I do…”
Huo Yanzhao suddenly experienced a tremendous sense of panic and despair.
This panic and despair had not struck when Xuefei learned the truth, nor when she suggested divorce, but at this moment… he suddenly couldn’t stop trembling.
It was as if… the whole world was obstructing them, one step at a time, one link after another…
He had finally found the woman, Sun Qiuran, but his mother somehow found out the truth and intervened.
Then, Xuefei received a photo… a photo of him and Sun Qiuran.
In the photo, his eyes were closed as if he was fast asleep, while Sun Qiuran lay on top of him… It wasn’t a very explicit photo, but it was enough to explain everything.
Huo Yanzhao suddenly realized that if he didn’t let go, this would never end. This matter would continue to torment her, whether it was Sun Qiuran’s existence or that of the child… each one leaving wounds on her heart.
This time it was a photo, what would it be the next time? A video recording?
Huo Yanzhao clenched his teeth tightly, filled not only with remorse but also with hatred!
Perhaps only when he and Xuefei parted the puppeteer behind this would reveal themselves.
Thinking this, Huo Yanzhao suddenly laughed hoarsely.
He pulled her tightly into his arms: “Xuefei, don’t torment yourself… Tell me, what can I do to make you feel a little better? Whatever it is, I will… agree to it.”
Yun Xuefei leaned against his chest, her tears falling silently.
Her lips moved, but she couldn’t utter a word. That day she could impulsively speak of divorce because she knew Huo Yanzhao wouldn’t agree. But now, she found herself unable to say it, realizing that this time, he really would agree.
