Before going to bed, Little Moon fell asleep later than usual, Qiaozheng hugged her and talked and told stories for a while.

When she fell asleep, Qiao Zheng tucked her in the quilt and turned around slowly.

Then, she took out her phone and clicked on the chat page.

That night, after she finished sending the last sentence, she deleted the chat with Huo Xizhou and set him as Do Not Disturb.

So she pulled down, and Qiaozheng found Huo Xizhou's location, only to find that he had indeed replied to her.

On the blank chat page, he had a few words, which were clear and distinct.

[Huo]: I'm sorry, something happened and I couldn't contact you in time, which made you worry.

This is what he replied at the beginning.

It took a long time to reply again. I don't know if it was because she didn't reply to the message or he fell asleep.

[Huo]: The return to Tongcheng will be postponed for another month... After I go back, I will explain to you again, don't be angry.

He sent her the last one after a few minutes.

[Huo]: Miss Qiao, I miss you too.

Perhaps this sentence is not enough to express emotions.

Immediately afterwards, he sent two more words.

【Huo】...I really want to.

In the dark, Qiao Zheng stared at the phone blankly, a little dazed and a little insomnia.

The messages she sent him were many and long.

And he, with just a few words in reply, pierced into her heart.

The eyes are a little sore, it is unknown whether it is caused by emotion or light.

It must be emotion, she thought.

Recently, she has always been like this, and seems to have developed a physique of tear incontinence.

Every time the emotions get a little more intense, I can't help but want to cry.

[Broken kite]: It's okay, as long as you're fine.

Tears blurred her vision, she stretched out her fingers, and typed very slowly.

After typing this sentence, she read it silently, and found that it was a bit perfunctory.

After a moment of silence, Qiao Zheng typed out another sentence.

She returned to him—

[Broken Kite]: Huo Xizhou, I miss you too.

After sending, Qiao Zheng closed her eyes, turned off the phone, and never turned it on again.

After all, she had already made a decision long before that.

If a relationship is destined to be hurt, then it's better...don't start it.

Not touching feelings is not necessarily a bad thing.

Just like now, she will gradually get used to living with her daughter.

……

The next day, Qiao Zheng sent Little Moon to the kindergarten and transferred to the company.

During this period, she thought about it, took out her mobile phone, and opened the chat page.

Sure enough, Huo Xizhou replied to her in the middle of the night.

【Huo】: This time, it's my fault, you should be angry.

It seemed that the man was a little surprised by Qiao Zheng's concise reply.

Not long after, he replied.

[Huo]: You are not angry, I am very pleased...Miss Qiao, you have grown up.

...has she grown up?

Qiao Zheng stared at this sentence in a daze for a long time.

"Director Qiao, Secretary Liu asked me to inform you to go upstairs for a meeting."

It wasn't until someone came to remind her that Qiao Zheng just woke up like a dream and pulled her lips slightly.

No, she didn't grow up, she just... saw clearly.

In fact, at the beginning, when she couldn't contact him for a long time, she was angry...very angry, very angry.

But rather than being angry, she was more worried, did something happen to him?

Later, when she received a call from Mu Xueyan and learned that he was injured and unconscious, she...was also angry.

Facts are facts, she can't change it, so she can only torture herself, going through it over and over again in her heart.

In the end, the blood was dripping, and there was no cure.

[Broken kite]: At first, I was a little angry, but after I asked Dr. Shen, I knew you had something to do, so I didn't get angry anymore!

[Broken kite]: Our schedule is a bit out of line!You should be sleeping now, right?I'm going to work, see you after get off work!

Before entering the conference room, Qiao Zheng suppressed all kinds of emotions and sent this sentence.

With a cold expression on her face, she sent a lighthearted and humorous reply. From the wound on her heart, it bleeds, scars, bleeds, and scars again.

However, she can only reply like this, Huo Xizhou is so smart, rational, and calm... If her reply is always cold, distant, and indifferent, he will find something is wrong!

And now, after waking up, he should barely be able to reply to the news, otherwise he would have called her long ago!

It's difficult for him to speak now, and he can't make a phone call yet...

Just treat it as a play, Qiao Zheng told herself.

Before he recovers, just stay with him like this, and treat it as compensation and repayment... Because of him, she walked out of her marriage with Huo Beiheng ahead of time, ending the dead and false marriage!

And she thought of taking advantage of him, but she shouldn't have done so.

"Director Qiao, the plans you submitted are old and lack new ideas. Let me redo them! This time, the client you are facing is from a foreign country. Haven't you done some research?"

At the meeting, Huo Beiheng took out the proposal she had submitted, and criticized it expressionlessly.

Huo Beiheng in the shopping mall was a completely different person, with a bit of sharpness and fierceness.

After following him for five years, Qiao Zheng got used to him like this. This was his attitude towards his subordinates. Once something was not done well, he would not show any sympathy.

Some people sitting around didn't think there was anything wrong with this before.

But now, Qiao Zheng's identity has been exposed. She is Qiao Dong's real daughter, who will inherit Qiao's family in the future.

"Mr. Huo, is it a bit serious to redo it? Maybe it's not impossible to fix it..."

Someone tried to smooth things over for Qiao Zheng, but Huo Beiheng gave him a cold look: "Why, do you have an opinion?"

"Don't dare, don't dare..."

The man smiled awkwardly, Huo Beiheng ignored it, and looked at Qiao Zheng: "Director Qiao, can you do it? If you can't, I'll leave it to someone else!"

"I can, I will work overtime and redo it, and try to submit it this week!"

Qiao Zheng got up to make a statement, and Huo Beiheng knocked on the table casually, his tone was not softened, but full of cold force: "It's best, if you are not capable enough, hand it over to others as soon as possible!"

When the meeting was over, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

Before, there was a lot of rumors in the company that Mr. Huo and Director Qiao were secretly married.

Now it seems that most of them are fake.

Even if the marriage was once hidden, it must have broken up now!

Mr. Huo's attitude towards Director Qiao is not so strict, no matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like a husband and wife!

In the next few days, Qiao Zheng was busy working overtime to catch up with the plan.

During the period, when she replied to Huo Xizhou's message, her tone was as normal as possible, which made him feel strange... It was just intentional or unintentional, Qiao Zheng reduced the frequency of her reply, and kept saying that she was busy.

Busy with work during the day, come back from overtime work at night, and help Little Moon with her homework, she is so tired that she can fall asleep as soon as she lies on the bed.

[Broken Kite]: I'm sorry, Huo Xizhou, I worked overtime again today, and I just got home... I'll take a shower, check Little Moon's homework, and I should go to bed.

Once again, Qiao Zheng responded to meaningless messages like in the past few days.

She thought, if there are too many such news, maybe Huo Xizhou doesn't want to pay attention to her, right?

Postpone the reunion one day, good night~
