Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!-Chapter 708 - 709: The Thing I Regret Most Is Falling in Love with You 5
A man who can’t distinguish between right and wrong, who has no discernment—she won’t pay attention to him anymore!
Today’s incident was entirely intentional on Song Yi’s part. Her intuition was very strong!
Song Yi was using him, and yet he made excuses for her. Does he really believe Song Yi wouldn’t harm Tianxin?
How ironic! 𝘧𝘳𝘦ℯ𝓌𝘦𝒷𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸𝘰𝓂
Huo Shaohua was both angry and scared. He grabbed her shoulders with both hands, forcing her to face him.
"What are you angry about? I’ve already apologized!"
Tian Xingyun widened her eyes and glared at him, a smile playing on her lips.
Was he really angry? Angry that she wasn’t listening to his explanation, misunderstanding him?
Huo Shaohua’s brows furrowed deeply. What was she smiling about? Did she still not believe him?
Patiently, he explained again: "Today’s incident was my fault and had nothing to do with Song Yi. She didn’t touch Tianxin. When I took Tianxin to the supermarket to buy things, I didn’t take my phone, which caused today’s misunderstanding."
"Enough!" Tian Xingyun was furious and could no longer listen!
She raised her hand and pushed away his hands, glaring at him with anger.
Even now, he was still speaking for Song Yi, still defending the woman who wanted to harm his daughter!
"Xingyun..."
"Don’t call me that!" Tian Xingyun cut him off coldly, saying angrily, "Huo Shaohua, you may not care about Tianxin, but I do! I know exactly how much Song Yi hates the two of us. Today, she didn’t actually do anything to Tianxin, but she manipulated you into doing something. Think carefully about it!"
"Of course I care about my daughter!" Huo Shaohua was angry. She couldn’t just disregard his love for his daughter because of today’s incident.
"Really? You have a son on the way, and you still care about your daughter?" Tian Xingyun sneered.
"Tian Xingyun, don’t talk nonsense!"
"Nonsense? Huo Shaohua, aren’t you very smart? Even I, being as dumb as I am, can understand what’s going on with today’s incident. Why can’t you?"
"..."
"Even an ordinary person would inform the mother when taking a child. Besides, Song Yi is also going to be a mother soon. How could she forget to tell me? You usually carry your phone with you, so why did you leave it in the car today? Why did you take Tianxin when the children weren’t paying attention? Why were you at the supermarket with Tianxin for so long? Was she really that kind to buy things for my daughter? What a joke! She just wanted me to think the child was kidnapped, to see me go crazy with worry!" Tian Xingyun clenched her teeth and fists, letting out all the frustrations she’d been holding back. She felt much better after speaking her mind.
Huo Shaohua’s eyes became sharp. After her outburst, he recalled all of Song Yi’s actions today.
He had indeed been used, all because he was too happy to see his daughter.
He hadn’t thought much of it, and instead, he was manipulated by Song Yi...
His gaze softened, feeling a mix of heartache, guilt, and complexity as he looked at her.
No wonder she was so angry. She was not mad at Song Yi, but at him.
Angry that he defended Song Yi...
"Xingyun, I..." His mouth dry, he called her name but couldn’t say anything else for a long time.
"Just go, I don’t want to see you anymore!" Tian Xingyun closed her eyes and said, opening them again with a weak smile.
As she turned, she was hugged tightly, held tightly by him.
He wrapped his arms around her waist, lowering his head as he choked out an apology: "I’m stupid, I’m sorry..."
He was too stupid, allowing himself to be manipulated by Song Yi.
Tian Xingyun cried in agony. He wasn’t stupid; he just chose to believe Song Yi.
He was so smart that no one could deceive him, yet he never suspected Song Yi in today’s incident.
Instead, he thought she was being unreasonable, thought she was wronging Song Yi.
What broke her heart was that he chose to believe Song Yi.
