Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace-Chapter 603 - 542: Jun Ni Liangsheng Finale Part 2: Treating Me Like a Fool 2
Wait?
Wait for what?
Guan Yu pressed his lips together, glanced at Huo Shaojun, then raised his hand to look at the watch on his wrist. Seeing that there was still enough time, he said nothing more.
About twenty minutes passed.
Guan Yu caught another puzzled look from the driver in the front, took a breath, looked at Huo Shaojun, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Huo, should we go?"
Huo Shaojun glanced at him and said nothing.
Guan Yu smacked his lips in frustration, shrugged at the driver.
The driver, losing patience, sat for two more minutes before getting out of the car to smoke by the roadside.
Guan Yu kept checking his watch; there were less than forty minutes to the appointed time.
And it would take about half an hour to drive from here to the destination.
So now... they must set off!
Guan Yu glanced at Huo Shaojun, looked again, then slightly turned his body towards him, leaned forward, and said in a negotiating tone, "Brother Huo, my dear Brother Huo, there are less than forty minutes to the appointed time, can we go?"
"Wait a little longer." Huo Shaojun said.
Guan Yu, "..." Going crazy!
It’s really almost too late, ahhhh!
Really!
It’s always like this!
The emperor’s not in a hurry, but the eunuch is... wait, I’m not a eunuch!
"Sigh."
Guan Yu resigned himself to slumping against the back of his seat, looking pitifully at Huo Shaojun with his pale face.
Just counting on the time when he’d look at him pitifully, feel a bit of compassion, and agree to leave quickly.
But Huo Shaojun didn’t buy it at all and didn’t even glance at Guan Yu.
Guan Yu, "..." Ugh!
Waited another two or three minutes.
Guan Yu couldn’t take the torture anymore, sat up straight with a jolt, deciding he’d drag someone along by force if he had to!
He leaned his head out the car window to call the driver.
At that moment, Huo Shaojun’s phone rang.
Guan Yu stopped his call and turned to look at Huo Shaojun.
And at the instant he saw Huo Shaojun answer the phone, his unusually stern and tense expression startled him.
After all, having worked by his side for so many years.
Other than Jian Liangtong, no one had ever made a certain master show his emotions like this, let alone such a "spectacular" change on Huo Shaojun’s face.
Could it be that the caller is... Jian Liangtong!
While Guan Yu’s mind was busy imagining scenarios, Huo Shaojun had already hung up the phone, his voice deep and hoarse, he said, "Drive."
Guan Yu, "..."
Stupidly asked, "Where to?"
Huo Shaojun looked up at him, the intense color in his eyes startling Guan Yu again.
"Four Seasons District!" he said.
"..."
Four Seasons District.
The doorbell rang just as Jian Liangtong was getting up, tousling her messy hair as she came out of her room, planning to grab some water from the kitchen fridge.
Hearing the doorbell, Jian Liangtong paused with one foot in the kitchen, turned her head in confusion towards the door.
At this time, both He Xinyun and Jian Ningfeng have gone to work.
Who could it be?
Jian Liangtong pursed her lips, walked towards the door while casually tying her hair back with a tuft of locks.
Reaching the door, Jian Liangtong was about to open it, but suddenly stopped with her hand on the doorknob.
She pulled back her hand, opened the peephole cover, and peeked outside.
The pair of deep black eyes she suddenly saw startled Jian Liangtong, causing her to quickly withdraw her gaze and take a step back.
Standing inside, Jian Liangtong took a couple of deep breaths before looking through the peephole again, her eyes full of suspicion.
Confirmed that it was indeed a certain someone standing outside.
Jian Liangtong’s delicate face visibly fell.
Didn’t want to deal with it.
Jian Liangtong turned to head back to her room.
Bang bang bang—
Just as Jian Liangtong turned around, there was a loud bang on the door.
Jian Liangtong stiffened, furrowed her brows, and glanced sideways.
"Open the door, I know you’re in there!" The man’s voice was uncommonly stern and commanding.
Jian Liangtong pressed her red lips together, stood still for a few seconds, and eventually walked back to open the door.
Standing in front of Huo Shaojun, Jian Liangtong could only be described as disheveled.
Her tied-up hair was a mess, the floor-length straight nightgown had no shape, and the flip-flops on her feet were exaggeratedly worn on the wrong sides.
But she didn’t care at all.
And clearly, Huo Shaojun’s current focus wasn’t on whether Jian Liangtong was "sloppy" at the moment.
As soon as the door opened, Huo Shaojun stepped into Jian Liangtong.
Jian Liangtong’s nose nearly collided with his solid chest.
Her body slightly stiffened, and the crisp, fresh scent of the man approaching caused a hint of daze in Jian Liangtong’s eyes, making her not evade immediately.
Huo Shaojun looked down at Jian Liangtong, his deep, cold eyes rippling with an unknown undercurrent, "Go in!"
"..." Jian Liangtong trembled slightly, and when she raised her eyes in confusion, she inadvertently swept to his fists hanging by his sides, clenched so tightly the veins on the backs of his hands stood out, startling.
Jian Liangtong’s heart couldn’t help but tremble again.
Before she could think about the reason for his visit, her body was bumped aside by someone, although the force wasn’t great, just enough to make her step aside for him to enter.
Jian Liangtong stumbled back two steps towards the side of the entrance, feeling a bit of pain as her shoulder bumped into the hard door panel.
Jian Liangtong blinked and looked at Huo Shaojun walking inside.
Her almond eyes filled with deep suspicion, inevitably with a hint of displeasure.
What did he take this place for? His Huo Family?
Jian Liangtong bit her lower lip, managing not to have an outburst.
She closed the door and walked over.
Huo Shaojun stood in the living room, his tall and straight back facing Jian Liangtong.
Jian Liangtong stopped about three or four steps behind him, her almond eyes shimmering with confusion as she stared at his back.
The room was silent.
So quiet that Jian Liangtong felt an illusion.
As if at this moment, she was the only one in the house.
After all, now she could only hear her own breathing.
"A year ago..."
The extremely hoarse male voice slowly sounded, "I asked you if Hao Hao was my child, and you said no."
He had asked her personally.
But her answer was negative.
So later, when Fang Jingting brought that paternity test report showing he had no blood relation with Hao Hao, he believed it.
A hole opened in the location of Huo Shaojun’s heart, with a whirlwind wreaking havoc inside.
Jian Liangtong looked at his eyes, very calm, but who knows if her heart was equally calm.
"So what?" she asked flatly.
Huo Shaojun’s tongue felt bitter, his throat seemed choked with some sticky substance.
He turned around.
Jian Liangtong noticed that at this moment, his pupils were as red as a demonic creature.
His handsome face was tense due to suppressing some profound emotion, vaguely showing slight twitching in his facial skin.
"Why?" Huo Shaojun’s voice trembled, as if about to spit blood with each word.
Jian Liangtong furrowed her brow and tugged at her lips, "Why what?"
"Why didn’t you tell me Hao Hao is my child?" Huo Shaojun shouted.
He didn’t want to lash out at her; he just couldn’t suppress the surging emotions in his heart.
Hurt, guilt, remorse, anger, and pain, like countless invisible threads, bound tightly around his heart, rings of his heart breaking, bleeding boiling hot blood.
Jian Liangtong’s throat ultimately trembled slightly.
Lowering her dense, long eyelashes, Jian Liangtong said, "I couldn’t think of a reason to tell you."
At that time, her heart was like dead ashes, and she had no hope for him whatsoever.
Besides.
She didn’t want to have any more entanglements with him because of Hao Hao.
Moreover.
She didn’t think Huo Shaojun would care much about her child.
In such a situation, she didn’t want to tell him at all; she didn’t even want to speak to him.
A reason she couldn’t think of to tell him?
The redness in Huo Shaojun’s eyes seemed about to flow from the corners of his eyes.
"Besides, even if I said no. Didn’t you, Huo Shaojun, have eyes to see? Who does Hao Hao look like, who does he act like, how much he likes you, depends on you, could you not see all that? If I said he’s not your child, does he really become not yours? Who are you, you are Huo Shaojun, if you really wanted to know if Hao Hao is your child, you could have taken Hao Hao to the hospital for a test. Yet you didn’t, did you? You were convinced, convinced Hao Hao was a bastard born from my affair with another man..."
"Shut up!" Huo Shaojun roared low.
Jian Liangtong was startled by his shout, pursing her red lips and staying silent.
In fact, she wanted to say these words when she found out he had always doubted whether Hao Hao was his child.
Jian Liangtong was originally a straightforward girl, but when she loved Huo Shaojun deeply, she became excessively cautious and careful in front of him, being very mindful of his feelings in saying and doing anything, which made her seem too timid and hesitant in front of him.
So, for Jian Liangtong to endure until now, really wasn’t easy!
Moreover, even if Huo Shaojun hadn’t realized that Hao Hao was his child today, Jian Liangtong wouldn’t have tolerated much longer herself.
There was no possibility for her with him anymore.
But that didn’t mean she would submissively accept being deemed an indiscreet woman all her life!
If she had to break, she’d break clearly, straightforwardly.
She wouldn’t bear a single undeserved blame!
Jian Liangtong took a deep, deep breath, lifted her fair chin, and said to him, "Huo Shaojun, when I was with you, I never did anything to betray you or feel guilty towards you. I don’t understand why you always face me with an attitude like I’ve wronged you, like I’m deeply sinful! Maybe in your heart, I’m just a fickle woman with no self-love or self-respect. In the past, I loved you, only you, and I could endure any accusation you made towards me, continuing to be devoted to you as always. But now I don’t love you anymore, could you please do me a favor and not let me see your current ’you are the victim’ posture anymore. I, Jian Liangtong, owe you nothing!"
Speak up.
Say it all out!
From now on, separate ways, each to their own!
Huo Shaojun looked at Jian Liangtong, seeming to suddenly give up.
Jian Liangtong slightly parted her lips and exhaled, finally saying the words that had been suppressed in her heart for a long time, but her eyes turned red.
She looked at Huo Shaojun, and her voice was slightly hoarse, "I always felt we shouldn’t have ended in the current confrontational state. I don’t know who caused it to be this way. But I really don’t want to continue. Huo Shaojun, let’s both live our own lives well, can we? Just, just consider it my plea to you."
