Huo Yunshen was touched that his wife would finally want to play with him in the office on her own.
“My wife…”
“Stop calling me your wife!” Xu Xiyan scolded, but her voice was cold as her eyes were red. “Huo Yunshen! Why is your phone off?”
“I was at a meeting just now, so I turned it off for a while,” Huo Yunshen said, thinking that Xu Xiyan came over because she couldn’t get in touch with him. He had switched his phone off because of a harassment call which had interrupted his meeting.
“You’re not allowed to turn your phone off ever again, you hear me? I want to be able to find you 24/7 and know where you are and what you are doing!”
Xu Xiyan was definitely off. It was her first time being angry at Huo Yunshen.
“I’m sorry, it won’t happen again, I promise!”
Xu Xiyan stared at the man in front of her. She was deeply in love with him, and there was no way she could leave him.
She got up onto the couch and between his legs. She held his head and kissed him with her shaky lips.
It was a messed up kiss, just like how her mind was.
She let go of his lips and asked, “Tell me the truth, Huo Yunshen, have you ever lied to me? Are you hiding anything from me? Did you tell me everything sincerely?”
“…”
Why would she ask this? Had she heard something outside?
Huo Yunshen was stunned as he really did hide something from her and did not answer straight away.
He’d never told her about his identity as Zeus, and he had no intention of telling her. He wanted to live a happy life with her as Huo Yunshen.
He was afraid that she might be worried about his safety if she knew about it.
Yet his silence worsened her mood. She closed her eyes and tears started to roll down her cheeks.
She could not hold it in anymore.
Her tears fell onto Huo Yunshen’s face, and it made him panic.
He held her shaking shoulders and looked in her eyes as she frowned and her lashes shook. It looked like she’d been really hurt.
Huo Yunshen had no idea what had made her cry like that.
“Jing Xi, I’m sorry. I know I shouldn’t hide it from you, but I have my reasons,” Huo Yunshen said as he hugged her tightly.
Did he just admit it? That he is hiding something? Everything about him and Tang Shixue was true?
Xu Xiyan could feel herself going crazy. She was hurt. It hurt more than being stabbed.
She pushed him away as she beat on his chest and screamed, “Huo Yunshen, how could you do this? Didn’t you promise me that we would always speak the truth? Yet you still hid it from me! How could you do this? Why? Why? Why?”
Huo Yunshen did not flinch no matter how hard she hit him. If it could calm her down, then he would be her punching bag.
“You bastard! If you could not let her go, then why did you accept me?”
