When he was a child, he tried to disfigure himself, but now he is actually glad that he showed mercy.

Huo Ling snorted. Of course, he, Huo Ling, was the most handsome, otherwise he wouldn't have used his beauty to seduce her the past two days.

She knew that every word she said was hurtful, but she also knew that the relationship between them was not that simple.

She sighed and continued to help Jiang Li treat his wounds.

After treating the wound, Nan Zhi looked at Jiang Li and said, "You should go and rest first. I am tired too."

Jiang Li nodded. He knew he couldn't stay here for long because he felt really uncomfortable from losing too much blood. He felt dizzy, but he was worried because he didn't see her, so he came here anyway.

He stood up, looked at Nan Zhi deeply, then turned and left.

Nan Zhi looked at his back, feeling mixed emotions.

[He saved me, I should be moved, but... he is Nan Wanyi's man, not Nan Zhi's. I have become like this if I want to change the plot, and I can't change the plot for him anymore.]

"Nanzhi!"

Nan Zhi suddenly came back to her senses and looked at Huo Ling: "You should go back and rest too."

Huo Ling sat down on the bed in silence, his head lowered, his hair hanging casually, the gun hanging lazily on his fingertips: "Zizi, is there anyone else in your eyes?"

Nan Zhi looked at his back in some surprise. He lowered his head, making it difficult to see his expression.

【what? 】

Huo Ling smiled bitterly: "I have worked hard all my life and sat on the position of the head of the Huo family just to stand by your side, to be worthy of you, to stand behind you and give you confidence... to stand... to stand in front of you and protect you.

I don’t know what you’ve been through that has changed you so much, but… I’m not stupid, the delicate and pain-averse Nan Zhi is the original Nan Zhi.”

Nan Zhi looked at him absentmindedly, with some panic in her eyes: "What... do you mean?"

[Is something wrong discovered? How is that possible! Even my parents didn’t notice…]

Huo Ling sighed, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to Nan Zhi.

Nan Zhi took one, put it to her mouth with trembling fingertips and lit it. The scarlet tobacco burned and smoke filled the room.

Huo Ling stood up and opened the floor-to-ceiling window for ventilation. He stood in front of the window and smoked. His hair slightly covered his eyes, and his frustration and fatigue were obvious to the naked eye.

Nan Zhi: "Huo Ling... I don't know what you mean, but maybe you don't understand the real me at all."

"Ha~"

Nan Zhi took a deep breath and tried hard not to let her tears fall: "Huo Ling, I know you treat me well, but that's just your wishful thinking. You never asked me if I was willing..."

Huo Ling was silent for a moment, then said, "I know."

Nan Zhi lowered her head, her heart in a mess. At this moment, she really didn't know what to say. The overwhelming oppression seemed to be about to crush her. Only the nicotine in her hand became her only outlet.

"You should return home."

[Stay away from me. If I wasn't the middleman, Huo Ling wouldn't have anything to do with the plot.]

Huo Ling was silent for a long time. He was waiting. He had been waiting for a very long time. He wanted to hear Nan Zhi say it in person.

He wanted to hear her scold himself, scold him for breaking his promise in the previous life and dying early, leaving her alone. He wanted to hear her scold himself for being incompetent, saying how important he was, but he couldn't protect the one he loved until his death.

But no, he couldn't tell her that he could hear her inner voice, otherwise she would be on guard against him. But she just wanted to push him away and was unwilling to face it together.

"Are you chasing me away?"

Huo Ling put out the cigarette, lifted his hair and looked at her.

It was a pity that Nan Zhi couldn't hear his inner voice, and didn't know how much he wanted Nan Zhi to let him stay and not leave.

Nan Zhi lowered her head and nodded: "Let's go..."

Huo Ling sneered, took a bottle of whiskey from the side and sat down to drink: "Do you hate me so much?"

Nan Zhi sighed and looked at him with some sarcasm in her eyes: "Isn't it normal for me to hate you? Huo Ling, an unhealthy person cannot have a healthy relationship."

Huo Ling nodded, smiled bitterly, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, then put it heavily on the coffee table: "Yes...it's me who is preventing you from having a healthy relationship."

[If we put aside the plot, the two of us... can be considered as two unhealthy people redeeming each other, right? Unfortunately... in the last life, you unilaterally saved me, and in this life, it's my turn to protect you. We can't escape the plot.]

"Yeah, you asked me before why I didn't go to Lingdu, Master Huo, are you unclear about yourself?

I went to Lingdu? If I got drunk, your men would report it to you. The next day, I would see you! I only needed to order a male model, and you would scratch his face!

Do you think I don't know? Every time I go to Lingdu, as long as I stop the car, I will enter your monitoring range, right? Is the real-time monitoring good?"

There was unconcealable disgust in her eyes as she spoke. She had known these things for a long time but had never mentioned them, not even in her previous life.

Although the Nan family didn't allow them to interact with each other, and although they knew how crazy Huo Ling was, the favoritism of a madman really made her spoil her to the sky.

She was greedy, she wanted the benefits and favors that came at no cost.

So for all these years, she and Huo Ling had not been in contact with each other, but when he came, she would accept him.

Huo Ling drank in silence, one glass after another. Nan Zhi looked away, unable to bear it any longer.

She knew that Huo Ling could drink a lot, but drinking it alone was extremely harmful to the stomach, and Huo Ling...had a bad stomach.

Huo Ling finished his drink and slowly stood up: "I'm leaving. You can use my people. Don't use Fu Siqing's. I'm afraid I'll get jealous and kill him."

[He... is really leaving? ]

Huo Ling took a step forward and walked to the bedside. When Nan Zhi was stunned for a moment, he leaned over and pressed her down.

The kiss with a strong smell of alcohol fell fiercely. His movements were swift and decisive. He gently held Nan Zhi's shoulders with his hands. He wanted to hug her tightly, but was afraid of hurting her, just like him now.

It seemed that moving forward was against her will, but moving backward and leaving her alone was impossible.

Huo Ling's lips pressed tightly against Nan Zhi's. Full of passion and possessiveness, his kiss was fierce and deep, with a force that almost swallowed Nan Zhi.

A strong emotion surged in Nan Zhi's heart. She just raised her hand and wanted to respond in a confused state, but suddenly she remembered something and pushed the person in front of her away.

【Since there is no future, don't give him hope. 】
