Chapter 60: "Wife, I Was Wrong! Give Me a Chance"

Shen Cheng stared at him, her clear eyes unblinking.

Shock, disbelief, doubt—her face was an open book of emotions.

[I must be hearing things. How could I possibly hear such a response from that dog of a man, Huo Xingjian?]

[Oh, right! He must be reluctant to give me money, so he’s dragging this out.]

[No, no! He didn’t say that if we didn’t divorce, all the money was mine? If we divorced, he wouldn’t give me a dime.]

[Ah! I’m losing my mind. What the hell does Huo Xingjian want?]

"Miss Li, it seems I haven't made myself clear enough." Huo Xingjian looked down at the woman sitting in the wheelchair, his voice cold and detached. "In that case, I think I need to repeat myself."

"Let's also settle the account for the past two years."

"Account? What account?" Li Qingxue looked at him in confusion.

"You and I have no personal connection. Emotionally or logically, I have no obligation to spend my money or energy on you."

"I’ll have Zhang Hui calculate all the expenses from your hospital stay over the past two years. You’d better pay me back!"

"My money didn’t come from the wind; it’s the result of my hard work. We were strangers to begin with, so it’s not my responsibility to pay for this."

He spoke slowly, each word chilling, with no hint of a joke.

Li Qingxue froze, hardly believing her ears.

Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at him. "Xingjian..."

"Call me Mr. Huo!" Huo Xingjian corrected her.

"Mr. Huo," Li Qingxue's voice trembled, "how could you treat me like this? Are you pushing me to my death?"

"I... I’ve been in a coma for over two years and just woke up! How could I possibly have money to repay you?"

"That’s your problem, not mine!" Huo Xingjian answered coldly.

Crystal-clear tears slid down Li Qingxue’s face, making her look pitiful. But even with her heartbreaking appearance, Huo Xingjian felt no sympathy, only disgust.

"But... but I was in that accident because of you, I went into a coma because of you!" Li Qingxue gazed at him with tears in her eyes.

"Xingjian, I’m not trying to extort you or anything. I’m just... "

"Let’s put aside the fact that I never involved you in my business. As for that car accident, I will have someone investigate it." Huo Xingjian interrupted her.

Li Qingxue’s eyes flashed with panic.

What?!

He wants to investigate the accident?

That can’t happen. The accident was planned by her and Huo Xinglang to make him feel guilty, to burden him with moral responsibility.

[Oh, she’s nervous! She doesn’t want Huo Xingjian to investigate the car accident because she knows it’s not just a simple crash!]

[Look at that, Huo Xingjian really believes her! He hasn’t looked into the accident, even though if he had, the truth would’ve been easy to uncover.]

[So typical of love-struck men—totally blind!]

[Hurry up and investigate! Not only will you find something about Huo Xinglang, but it might even drag Huo Yunshan into it!]

Huo Xingjian exchanged a glance with Wen Yintong, both their eyelids twitching.

Looks like Shen Cheng still holds a grudge. He’ll have to keep trying to please her.

Wen Yintong: If you want to repay the life debt, you’re going to spend the rest of your life working for her, selling your soul for Chengzi!

Huo Xingjian: I’d like to, but have you seen how she looks at me?

Wen Yintong: Useless fool! If you can’t make her happy, don’t call yourself my son! I have no son like you—what a disgrace!

Huo Xingjian: ...

[The road to chasing his wife is long and arduous!]

Li Qingxue took a deep breath, her voice full of sorrow, "I understand. I really have no right to ask you to spend so much money on me. Don’t worry, I will pay you back. As long as I’m alive, I’ll make sure to return the money."

"Should I transfer it to your account?" Huo Xingjian turned to look at Shen Cheng. His gaze, no longer cold and harsh, was filled with tenderness and affection. "Let’s consider it extra money for fruit."

Li Qingxue: "…!!!"

How ridiculous! He’s demanding that I repay all this money, but he’s calling it money for fruit for Shen Cheng!

Shen Cheng smiled gently, "Well, if my husband wants to give me money, I have no reason to refuse. After all, it’s our joint property in marriage, and you didn’t ask for my consent before giving it away, so you’re at fault."

"Yes, I was wrong. I now realize my mistake. Please give me a chance to make things right," Huo Xingjian apologized earnestly.

"Since you’re being so sincere, I’ll let it slide this time. Just get the money back." Shen Cheng smiled sweetly.

After Huo Yushu finished vomiting up all the bile, she weakly walked over, "Brother, I don’t want to stay here anymore. I want to live in your Xinxi Garden."

"What are you sticking your nose in for?" Wen Yintong shot her a glare. "You’re single and alone—why be a third wheel? Go with your grandfather!"

"I want to go too! I miss Grandpa!" Shen Cheng said seriously.

Before Huo Xingjian could respond, she hurriedly grabbed Huo Yushu and rushed out. "Let’s go! We haven’t seen Grandpa in so long, I really miss him!"

The family of four left.

Li Qingxue clutched the armrests of her wheelchair, her eyes filled with hatred.

It wasn’t until she heard the car leave the yard that she snapped out of her thoughts.

She grabbed her phone and dialed a number. "He said he’s going to investigate the car accident from two years ago."
