Mr. Huo, my wife is offering 1000 billion for divorce!

The man standing by the window answering the phone raised his eyebrows and said, "I didn't expect Iris to die in this way. It's really boring. Okay, come back."

"Ok."

……

Chi Muzhen originally thought that she and Huo Yunting were swept away by the huge waves and would definitely die, but unexpectedly they were saved by a tree on the shore.

At that time, she and Huo Yunting were hit by a huge wave and hit the shore. There happened to be a tree next to them. She quickly held on to it until the huge wave passed, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

If the heavy rain hadn't caused the water to rise to the branches of the big trees, they would have been swept farther away.

After the two of them rested, they slowly swam towards the shore.

After landing, Huo Yunting walked forward with a cold face, pretending she didn't exist.

Chi Muzhen followed him, looking at his back, feeling an indescribable emotion in her heart.

It feels like gratitude, but also like luck.

If it weren't for Huo Yunting, both she and Shi Yiheng would most likely have died today.

She walked quickly to him and said seriously: "Mr. Huo, thank you!"

A thank you is too light, but other than thank you, she doesn't know how to repay him.

Huo Yunting glanced at her coldly, with overwhelming anger brewing in his eyes.

"Chi Muzhen, are you stupid?! You risked your life for Shi Yiheng, and you like him so much?!"

Chi Muzhen was stunned for a moment, pursed her lips and said, "I didn't risk my life for him, and I didn't expect such a big wave at the time."

Huo Yunting sneered, and every word was dripping with ice.

"When rescuing people, you don't even weigh how much you weigh! If I hadn't arrived just in time this time, how many lives would you have had to save?!"

Facing his anger, Chi Muzhen just remained silent and did not speak.

Huo Yunting gave her a cold look, "Why don't you speak? Are you mute?!"

Chi Muzhen raised her head and looked at him, "I really didn't expect it to be so dangerous at first. If something like this happens next time, you don't have to worry about me. Whether I live or die is my own life."

Huo Yunting laughed angrily, his voice as cold as snow.

"Don't worry, next time, unless I get kicked in the head by a donkey, I will never care about you!"

Seeing the anger in his eyes, Chi Muzhen pursed her lips, lowered her head and said nothing.

When the huge wave hit just now, she was panicking. She was not afraid of death, but she was afraid that Huo Yunting would lose his life along with her.

She didn't want to owe him, but every time she was in danger, he seemed to appear and save her again and again.

The two climbed up for a while, and finally saw a house halfway up the slope.

An old couple lived in this household. Chi Muzhen briefly explained what happened to them and asked if they could stay for one night. After some discussion, the two old men agreed.

After walking into the house, it didn't take long for Grandma Xu to find two relatively new sets of clothes and hand them to the two of them.

"Girl, these are my and the old man's clothes. If you don't mind, please put them on first, otherwise you will catch a cold later if you wear wet clothes."

The clothes on both of them were patched, but the clothes given to them were clean and tidy. It could be seen that they were clothes that the two of them could not bear to wear on weekdays.

Chi Muzhen felt a little moved, took the clothes and said, "Thank you, Grandma Xu."

"You're welcome. You go to the bedroom to change first, and then let your wife change it later."

Realizing that they had misunderstood her relationship with Huo Yunting, Chi Muzhen was about to explain when Huo Yunting spoke.

"Go and change first."

By the time the two of them had changed their clothes, Grandma Xu had already made ginger soup.

"Drink some ginger soup first, dinner will be ready later."

After dinner, the two old men quickly went to bed.

They only had two rooms in their house, and they thought Huo Yunting and Chi Muzhen were husband and wife, so they naturally arranged them in one room.

After returning to the room, seeing the embarrassment in Chi Muzhen's eyes, Huo Yunting said indifferently: "You sleep on the bed, and I'll deal with it on the chair all night."

When Chi Muzhen heard this, she suddenly felt guilty, and said quickly: "No, the bed is big enough, I can just put a pillow in the middle."

And it's not like they haven't slept together before. Now that the situation is special, she isn't that particular.

Seeing that there was no shyness in her expression, Huo Yunting's eyes turned cold and he said no more.

After laying down the quilt, Chi Muzhen called Huo Yunting to go to bed.

Both of them usually work late at night, and this is the first time they go to bed so early.

Chi Muzhen lay still for more than an hour and couldn't help but said, "Mr. Huo, are you asleep?"

"no, what happened?"

After hesitating for a few seconds, Chi Muzhen still whispered: "I'm sorry for what happened today... I didn't say angry words to you before, I just don't want to owe you more and more. I'm afraid I can't pay you back..."

After a moment of silence, Huo Yunting's cold voice sounded in Chi Muzhen's ears.

"Since you can't afford it, don't do it. My original intention is not to make you feel guilty about me. Do you really don't understand, or are you pretending not to understand?!"

Because of his words, Chi Muzhen was a little confused.

Of course she knew that Huo Yunting was not the kind of person to meddle in other people's business. The things he had done for himself during this period all pointed to a possibility.

But that possibility was something she couldn't believe.

During the three years of their secret marriage, she had been disappointed so many times that she no longer dared to have any hope in Huo Yunting.

"Mr. Huo, you... like me?"

"Otherwise, do you think there is any other reason for me to leave my job and come here?"

Chi Muzhen's hand on her side tightened unconsciously, and her whole body felt unreal and erratic.

She admitted that she was indeed a little moved, and for a moment she wanted to be with Huo Yunting again.

But the previous painful experience made her calm down quickly. The conflict between her and Huo Yunting has not been resolved, and even if they get back together, it will only cause pain to both parties.

"But... you clearly liked Chi Xuan before."

"You also said it was before."

The two fell into silence again. After a long time, Chi Muzhen said slowly: "Let me think about it. I am very confused now. I will give you an answer after I think about it clearly."

"it is good."

At least her attitude towards herself is not as resistant as before.

Chi Muzhen knew very well that she should not be soft-hearted towards Huo Yunting, but the moment he cut off the rope without hesitation today, the shock in her heart could not be described in words.

Thinking about it now, I still can't calm down.

Early the next morning, Huo Yunting's men came over.

Before leaving, Huo Yunting asked his men to prepare a million to thank Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu, but they were rejected by the old couple.

Huo Yunting didn't insist, and just told Kening to find someone to repair the house for them.

After bidding farewell to Grandpa Xu and Grandma Xu, Chi Muzhen and Huo Yunting got on the helicopter back to Chengdu.

Back in Rongcheng, as soon as Chi Muzhen walked into the villa, she was hugged by Zhen Yan.

"Zhen Zhen, do you know that you scared me to death? I thought I would never see you again!"

Hearing that Zhen Yan's voice was choked, Chi Muzhen patted her back and comforted her: "Didn't I come back safely?"

"How dare you say that! If Mr. Huo hadn't rushed over, I don't know what would have happened... I saw the news reporting that you and Mr. Huo were swept away by a huge wave, and you couldn't get through on the phone. I cried several times. That’s it!”

"Well, I'll be careful next time. I'll take a shower first."

After taking a shower, Chi Muzhen went directly to MY.

On the way back, she called Shen Tian and Zhen Yan to report that they were safe, and also learned that Bai Ruru and Xu Qing had returned last night.

As soon as she returned to the office, Shen Tian came to find her.

"I'll treat you to dinner tonight to calm down your panic. Next time you encounter this kind of situation, don't act like a hero and hide as far away as possible."

Chi Muzhen smiled, nodded and said, "I understand."

Seeing her like this, it was obvious that she didn't listen. Shen Tian couldn't help but shook her head.

"By the way, Huo Yunting almost took his own life trying to save you this time. Word has spread among the Huo family that he will probably come to trouble you. You'd better be mentally prepared."
