Mr. Huo, stop being abusive. Madam has already entered the emergency room.

Or is he too hard-hearted and never had feelings for her?

It is the latter.

Eye sockets became hot, Cheng Zhi closed her eyes.

Could it be that her recent self-sacrifice and lowliness are all in vain?

"Don't you just want to see your father in prison?" Huo Linyuan suddenly said.

Cheng Zhi raised her head at once, with a bit of astonishment in her eyes.

"Sneaked away from the hospital and hid in Cheng Jiaye's study. Is it hard to guess what you're thinking?" Huo Linyuan continued, with a bit of contempt on his face, and it was difficult to distinguish between emotions and anger in his eyes.

"You haven't been home recently because you know..." Cheng Zhi couldn't help asking.

Huo Linyuan immediately denied it, "You think too highly of yourself!"

Pursing her lips, Cheng Zhi completely fell silent.

Staring at her for a while, Huo Linyuan showed impatience on his face, "If you want to visit the prison, just stay at home obediently. I need you, so I will naturally find you."

His eyes became a bit colder, "There's no need for you to follow up and ask about your health, it's not only embarrassing, but also hypocritical."

Cheng Zhi nodded dumbly, remembering the discussions he heard all the way after joining the company.

Huo Linyuan couldn't see her like this, "Since you know, don't you hurry up?"

"I'll go back and wait for you." Cheng Zhi gritted his teeth, turned and left gently.

After she left, Huo Linyuan stood alone for a while, and suddenly smashed the paperweight on the table with his hands.

……

The two resumed their lukewarm relationship.

Huo Linyuan still spoke with thorns, while Cheng Zhi remained submissive.

Life is not peaceful, but it can be called stable.

On the first sunny day after the snow, Cheng Zhi met Xiao Song at the villa in the middle of the mountain.

"Miss Cheng, Mr. Huo asked me to pick you up."

Feeling something, Cheng Zhi quickly went upstairs to put on light makeup and dress up a bit.

Watching the scene outside the car change, she raised her hand to hold her heart, trying to calm down her ever-accelerating heartbeat.

She can finally see her dad!

Behind the glass of the meeting room, Cheng Jiaye was brought over.

He has lost a lot of weight, but his eyes are bright and his spirits look good.

On the other hand, Cheng Zhi's eyes were black and blue, which couldn't be concealed by makeup, making her eyes look a bit melancholy.

"Little Zhi! Did you suffer? Did you eat well? Where's mom? Is she okay?"

As soon as mother was mentioned, Cheng Zhi lowered her head and held back her tears.

Mom is gone...

She held the microphone tightly, bit the soft flesh in her lips, and then raised her face under her father's worried eyes.

"Dad, don't worry, everything...everything is fine!"

Seeing that her father was worried, frowning and still asking questions, she hurriedly said in a low voice, "Dad, I'm looking for you this time because I have something important to do!"

"What's the matter? Could it be Huo Linyuan..."

"No dad."

Cheng Zhi immediately interrupted him, not wanting to think of that person at such a time.

"It's a handbook. I found your handbook, but one of the most important pages was torn off. I want to ask you..."

"Xiao Zhi!" This time, it was Cheng Jiaye who interrupted her.

But after calling her, he lowered his head, as if he was suppressing something, unwilling to say another word.

"dad?"

Cheng Zhi opened her eyes slightly, and suddenly thought of a possibility.

"Is someone threatening you? Asking you to take the blame?!"

Shaking his head constantly, Cheng Jiaye said with great heartache: "Xiao Zhi, don't ask too much, and don't pursue it. That matter ends with Dad. Take care of yourself and Mom..."

The timer rang, and the prison guard came to remind, "It's time."

Cheng Zhi jumped up anxiously, and couldn't hold back the tears, "No, Dad! Dad, please explain clearly!"
