86.

They signed a divorce agreement and have since been free.After losing the bondage on her fingers, Xia Zuo, who had lost that little bit of weight, was not used to it, as if her heart was suddenly out of balance, which made her a little dazed.

With the day to return to San Lorenzo approaching, Xia Zuo took some time to pack his luggage.Even though she has left a lot of things in Haisong in the past few years, there are not many things to take away.She just packed some important items, and only brought a few sets of clothes that could be worn, and she was not going to take away the rest.

"I'll trouble you to take care of the rest." After storing all his luggage, Xia Zuo smiled, looked at He Bo who was leaning against the door and said.

"Yes." Heber nodded, and he deserved it very simply.

This was the day before Xia Zuo was going to leave, and they didn't talk too much.Knowing that Xia Zuo was going far away, the children were very depressed.That night, they stuck to Xia Zuo and told stories about the night.But in the early morning of the next day, Xia Zuo got up early and tiptoed to go out with the suitcase alone.

The children are still too young, if she leaves in front of them, she probably won't be able to go out today.They would cry very sadly, instead of letting them cry, Xia Zuo would choose to leave quietly.

Before closing the door, she kissed the foreheads of the two children, kissed and kissed again, and finally got up and walked towards the door.

Not surprisingly, she saw Heber who also woke up very early.The well-dressed Heber sat on the sofa waiting for her, watched her pull the suitcase, and said softly, "I'll see you off."

Xia Zuo did not refuse, nodded and agreed with Heber's approach.So while Heber was driving the suspension vehicle, Xia Zuo threw his luggage into the back and sat in the passenger seat.

The autumn morning in Haisong is very cool. The two drove the suspension car along the high-altitude track, and they didn't talk much along the way.When we arrived at the port to board the ship, the sky was just bright.Xia Zuo and He Bo went to a nearby restaurant to have breakfast together, and the two of them didn't speak during the meal, and the scene was very stiff for a while.

"I'm done eating." Wiping the corners of his mouth with a napkin, Xia Zuo looked at Heber who was still eating slowly in front of him, coughed lightly, and said so.

"Yeah." Heber heard the words, put down the tableware in his hand, held the napkin and licked the corners of his lips, and said softly, "I'm fine too."

"Then go back, the children should wake up in a while." Xia Zuo said with a smile, "I will also enter the lounge later, so be careful on the way back."

"Hmm." Heber nodded without saying anything to rebut.

"Then let's go." Xia Zuo said, got up and walked outside.After they paid the bill, they walked towards the door one after the other, Xia Zuo walked towards the port, and the suitcase followed her side by step.And behind her was the silent Heber.

There were not many people on the earliest flight.Xia Zuo followed the crowd in the queue at the port of registration, ready to go through the security check and enter the lounge waiting for the flight.

Hebe followed behind her, retracted his outstretched hand, bit his lip, made up his mind, reached out and grabbed Xia Zuo's clothes.

"Xia Zuo..." She called out, softly, for fear of disturbing the person standing in front of her.Xia Zuo quickly turned around, turned to look at her and asked, "What's wrong?"

"After I go in later, you should go back. Heber, be careful on the road." Seeing the other party's cautious expression, Xia Zuo's heart softened, and he couldn't help reaching out and holding the hand holding her clothes in his palm , said in a low voice, "I will tell you when I get back to San Lorenzo, don't worry. Also, I promised the children that I will tell them stories when I have time, so don't worry."

A steady stream of heat came from the wrapped hand, calming Heber's uneasiness that had swayed all night.She nodded, looked up at Xia Zuo's face, bit her lip, hesitated for a while, and then mustered up the courage to say, "There is something... I need to tell you..."

"Huh? What's the matter, tell me." Xia Zuo looked at her, his eyes were full of connivance as always.

"I... I'm going to... open a studio..."

"Well, it's a very good thing. Are you worried about the children? They are very good, and it would be nice to have a nanny to take care of them. Or do you want to..." Xia Zuo suddenly realized another thing, his eyes jumped After a few touches of surprise, he held Heber's hand tightly, and said a little excitedly, "If you are willing to let them come to San Lorenzo, I will..."

"No... no..." He Bo shook his head, looked up at Xia Zuo, saw her gradually calming down, his heart tightened suddenly, and even his face changed a little bit.

Heber is very strange today, in a state of extreme uneasiness.Xia Zuo looked at her suddenly changed expression, and realized what he had just said.She quickly reached out, hugged Heber in her arms, patted her thin back, and comforted her, "Don't worry, Heber, don't worry, I won't snatch them from you." Yes.She also loves her children very much and is reluctant to be separated from them, but she cannot come to Sea Pines in San Lorenzo.

And after returning to the army, she also didn't have much time to take care of her children. Just because she knew this, she would buy time to stay with the children in the past few years.Moreover, she never had the idea of ​​depriving Hebe of the child.

"It's not... Xia Zuo..." She leaned against this long-familiar embrace, clenched her fingers, and after a while forced herself, she said intermittently, "Yes...that's how it is."

"I quit my job in about [-] and went back to San Alonso. The kids will go to school there and I'll be preparing my studio there."

Heber tried her best to stabilize herself, but every time she said a word, she trembled a little.They have nothing to do with each other anymore. They can choose their own lives. In fact, she doesn't need to change her plan. If she can, she can choose not to set foot in Neustadt for the rest of her life, even if it is her homeland.

San Lorenzo, on the other hand, is an abyss that seems to be able to swallow her up.Even if she doesn't care anymore, she still can choose not to step into that place.

There are too many people out there who know about her past.San Alonzo, too, was the same place where she was oppressed in her youth.

As long as she stepped into Neustadt, she would be in the sight of those people.They know her past and will see her present.

They would be curious about the identities of Cheno and Li Qi, and they would speculate with some people in Charlotte who her partner was, and who would be the mistress of a divorced woman like her who came out of the Duke's mansion.

Yes, in Neustadt there is always a lot of speculation about divorced women.She knew exactly what she was going to face, because she had already been through it.She wasn't afraid of this, but if she was with Xia Zuo, the young duke would have to face even more.

Like herself, she has her own career and her own ideals.

Xia Zuo is a duke, and her marriage alone can be exchanged for the marriage of a big family, gaining countless benefits.For the position of heir, Heber has already fully understood what those people can do.She has already struggled out of there once, and there is no need to go back to that quagmire.

Xia Zuo's reputation and her freedom will all be affected by that place.

But...it doesn't matter...it doesn't matter Heber...to her, these are irrelevant things.

So she leaned into Xia Zuo's arms, pressed her hands into fists against Xia Zuo's heart, and said as calmly as possible, "If you have time, you can visit them during your vacation."

"We'll be waiting for you...at Sant'Arenzo..."

This is the only thing she can do, in response to Xia Zuoshou's three years by their side.She didn't know who she would meet in the future, and she didn't care whether Xia Zuo would have someone who would care more about him.

So she took a step forward, hugged Xia Zuo, patted her on the back, and said in a trembling voice, "Take care of yourself, Xia Zuo."

She still couldn't take the initiative, couldn't tell Xia Zuo that I love you, and it was so difficult to respond with a word of willing to wait for you.She didn't know what consequences she would have if she did this, whether it would be good or bad for herself, but she didn't want to make Xia Zuo sad, because she would be even more sad.

The moment she leaned against Xia Zuo's arms, she suddenly felt settled down.

What is Xia Zuo thinking at this moment?

She just hugged the woman in her arms tightly, resting her chin on Heber's forehead, and for the first time deeply felt Heber's response.

The woman in his arms would prepare her clothes for the four seasons and travel items, and would gently tidy up her clothes, and whisper to her forever. Xia Zuo felt more than once that it was all because he was a child. Her mother, if it was someone else, Heber would be able to take care of her so meticulously.

Because you see, even if Lynn betrayed her back then, she still did what a wife should do.

She thought more than once that Heber's cooperation was only because of her own needs.

Only now can she be sure that apart from gratitude and guilt, admiration and liking, Heber has something else for her.

If you want to use any word to define it, it must be "love".

Xia Zuo nodded, embraced the woman in his arms, and said solemnly, "I will be back, I promise."

She rubbed Hebe's hair and said softly, "Hebe... can I pursue you?"

Just like when they met again in San Lorenzo, there is no difference of status, no unexpected estrus, no bondage of children.Simple, just Heber and Xia Zuo, how about they do it all over again?

"If you don't agree, that's the default." Xia Zuo said, rubbing Heber's hair.

The woman leaning on her arms didn't reply, but thought in her heart: Is this something that requires her consent?

Those who felt that they had received a response carried their luggage and returned to San Lorenzo without any worries.Leaving Heber to go home alone to face the two children who were crying so hard because of her departure.

Xia Zuo did not break his promise. After returning to San Lorenzo, he took the time to correspond with the children.At the same time, the formal pursuit of Heber began.

Thinking about it carefully, except for the very short time in Haisong, Xia Zuo didn't seem to have pursued Heber well during the three years of his contractual marriage with Heber.But even in that short half month, the relationship between them was more similar to that of friends.

Xia Zuo, who has never tried to pursue a partner, and He Bo, who can handle the pursuit of countless people with ease, stumble into a very distant and vague relationship.

After the queen's celebration, Xia Zuo went to Saas. Because of the confidentiality of the military base, she had no choice but to cut off contact with Heber and the children.

During this period, Heber packed up all Haisong's belongings, bought a villa in San Elenso, and set foot on his homeland again.

With her return, there was a little more chatter in the aristocratic circle of San Alonso.Before those gossip people had time to ask Heber how his life was in the past few years, Heber, who had been away from San Elensau for more than ten years, used his commercial value to set off a bloody storm in San Elensso.

Just relying on the shares acquired from the Fox family last time, as well as some celebrities in the art circle that she has recruited, and the cooperation with Charlotte, she began to create her own brand.

Heber's career successfully attracted the attention of partners, but there were few comments on her private life. Then, a more important thing happened.

Just after the Queen's celebration, Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess changed her surname with the Queen's consent, and voluntarily gave up her right to inherit the throne.

After the news came out, the whole country was in an uproar.

The author has something to say: The eldest princess: I have a dream, I want to do something...

Xia Zuo didn't have much time to officially chase dumplings, I'm sorry.
