After the two posted on Weibo, they accompanied the six children to the stables to see the ponies.
They did not know that because of their interaction, the Internet instantly exploded.
After the group had dinner and returned to the babies’ house from the racecourse, it was already eight o’clock in the evening.
It was only then that Huo Wu took out her phone. She had set her phone on silent mode, so it was only now that she found 17-18 or more missed calls.
Some were from Yu Xinxin, Gu Yan, Gu Chi, and also Mo Ze.
The moment Huo Wu opened her phone, it rang again. And the caller was Mo Ze.
Huo Wu answered it.
Mo Ze’s voice came out from the other end in the next second, muffled and deep, like a summer thunderstorm, bringing with it a damp and gloomy atmosphere. “You’re with him?” There was no need for the both of them to identify who the man he was referring to was.
Huo Wu graciously admitted. “Yes.”
Mo Ze laughed mockingly at the other end. “Huo Wu, it’s the first time I’ve ever liked someone so much.”
Huo Wu did not know what to say and could only choose temporary silence.
Mo Ze continued on the other end of the phone, saying self-deprecatingly, “Huo Wu, do you know? I have had no real home since I was a child, nor have I ever experienced the warmth of home. My so-called parents played their own games. No one has ever taught me how to love someone. So, I never understood love or wanted to love. It’s said that when parents don’t set a good example, the children aren’t expected to behave well. My so-called parents shuttled between appetite and lust, among men and women. I, for one, have seen more, and naturally picked up a few things. I’ve played the field for more than a decade and never run into any hiccups. But you know what, after meeting you, I really wanted to learn how to love someone, but you didn’t even give me a chance.”
Huo Wu’s grip on her phone slowly tightened.
Mo Ze’s private confession could be said to be utterly sincere. However, she could not respond to Mo Ze’s affection.
She was acutely aware that things like feelings were almost impossible to force, and she couldn’t give him the response he wanted. Nevertheless, she truly hoped for Mo Ze’s happiness.
“Mo Ze, even if it’s not me, you’ll meet another person who is more suitable for you. I wish you a good life and everlasting happiness.” In the previous life, Huo Yuqin was the person who could make Mo Ze happy. And in this life, even without Huo Yuqin, Mo Ze’s halo that belonged to the hero was still there. Huo Wu believed that with his means and charm, he would live happily.
Mo Ze chuckled, but his tone was devoid of any emotion. “Heh, then I’ll humbly accept your blessing.”
“Don’t mention it.”
After this exchange, the two remained silent.
After a few seconds of silence, when Mo Ze spoke again, his tone was a bit more relaxed than before, “Huo Wu, I’m leaving the city. I’ll temporarily move the focus of my career to the neighboring city and develop there.”
Make the move to transfer to the neighboring city? So abruptly, and with such a grand gesture?
Huo Wu didn’t know whether Mo Ze’s departure was related to her. However, he might live better in a different environment.
She heaved a deep sigh and sent her sincerest wishes. “Mo Ze, I wish you well in your career and all the best in the future.”
Mo Ze fell silent for a long time this time. Long enough that Huo Wu thought he wouldn’t respond. All of a sudden, he spoke up faintly and said, “Thank you, and I wish you all the best too.”
After hanging up the phone, Huo Wu let out a long sigh of relief.
Mo Ze’s last words of blessing should have put aside his feelings for her. Mo Ze was spontaneous and unrestrained by nature. He could afford to take something and let it go. Since she was now with Huo Yusen and had never given him a chance, then he would naturally give up.
When Huo Wu was answering Mo Ze’s call, Huo Yusen’s phone was also jammed.
He ignored most of the calls and put his father, Huo Yuan, through.
“Are you crazy? You even made your relationship public? Do you even know what you’re doing?”
Once the phone was connected, Huo Yuan’s furious questioning voice rang out loudly.
Huo Yusen’s blandness contrasted with Huo Yuan’s irritability. His clear and extremely textured voice sounded unhurriedly on this end of the phone. “I know.”
“Can you bear the consequences after the relationship is made public? That’s your sister!”
“She’s not.”
“No matter what, she’s been your sister for eighteen years!”
Huo Yusen took his phone and slowly walked to the window area. He looked at the myriad of twinkling lights outside the window and felt an absurd and ridiculous sensation for the first time. While looking at the scenery outside the window, his face turned cold, and his words echoed as frostily as the chilly wind. “If you hadn’t had that love debt at the beginning, the case of the two babies being swapped eighteen years ago wouldn’t have happened. Speaking of which, I never knew that you were still having an affair with that woman after you and Mom got married. It turned out that the harmony, perfection, and happiness of the family back then were all false.”
