Chapter 45: Returning It One At A Time

Huo Chuan’s voice was full of concern over the phone.

If Yun Qing had been cared for like this once in those three years, she would not have been so disheartened.

“Nothing much. He just called Yun Zhe’s father to complain to him and even made up a story about me.”

Yun Qing said it lightly, but Huo Chuan’s heart only hurt even more.

“But President Huo, Elder Huo is getting old. You have to keep a close eye on him. Don’t let him strain himself too much.”

Yun Qing couldn’t help but laugh.

Huo Chuan had to endure Yun Qing’s bitter words.

This was all his atonement.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t stop grandfather in time.” Huo Chuan said softly, sounding really guilty.

Yun Qing was still not used to him being like this.

“Huo Chuan, you’re really interesting. When we were husband and wife, I had to call you almost every day to show concern for you, but you ignored me. Now that we’re divorced, you’re taking the initiative instead.

“Tell me, aren’t you the slut now?”

Yun Qing did not even try to mask her words and felt that Huo Chuan’s actions were extremely laughable.

‘Now he’s pretending to be a good man in front of her? Too late!’!

Huo Chuan’s heart skipped a beat — Yun Qing had called him every day to show concern for him, so why didn’t he know about it?

His thoughts quickly returned to the days when they were together. It seemed like once, his Assistant Li Yi did tell him that Yun Qing had called.

She asked him if he had eaten his fill and had slept well.

However, he was busy with work at the time and did not pay much attention to it. He even told Li Yi to stop patching in calls to him about such trivial matters and asked Yun Qing to stop bothering him.

After that, he no longer received any more phone calls from Yun Qing.

It seemed that Li Yi was just following instructions?

Huo Chuan almost could not breathe when he thought of this.

He suddenly understood why Yun Qing was so determined to divorce him.

It turned out that such an outcome had already been decided a long time ago.

“President Huo, if there’s nothing else, I’ll hang up.”

“Yun Qing…”

Before he could finish, the call was disconnected.

Yun Qing leaned against her office chair and stared at her computer in a daze.

She was indeed not used to Huo Chuan being humble like just now.

During her three years in the Huo family, she was already used to being humiliated, ignored, and tortured.

Huo Chuan’s sudden behavior made Yun Qing feel a little strange.

Yun Qing shook her head and quickly drove Huo Chuan’s tenderness out of her mind.

She could not be deceived by this dog of a man!

Bai Ting was about to return to the country. He only thought of her because Bai Ting was not around.

In his heart, Bai Ting was still the most important person.

When she convinced herself of this, Yun Qing’s eyes darkened.

What she was doing now was only the beginning.

She wanted to personally slap the Huo family in the face and return all the pain she had suffered.

…

After a busy day, Yun Qing was just about to go home from work to rest, when Zhu Zhan caught up to her. “Vice President Yun, President Wang of Greenland wants to treat you to a meal. He said he wants to talk to you about the project.”

In order for the project to proceed smoothly, Yun Qing could only nod and agree.

“Come with me.”

Yun Qing brought Zhu Zhan along and drove to the restaurant that Wang Fang had booked.

When they reached the agreed location, Yun Qing realized that it was not only Wang Fang who was there, but also Huo Chuan.

A narrow road was truly rife with enemies.

But who asked them to be partners of Greenland at the same time?

“President Wang, are you looking for me for something, or is President Huo looking for me for something?”

Yun Qing stared at Wang Fang and spoke slowly.

Wang Fang chuckled and scratched his head. “Vice President Yun, both of you are my partners. I naturally hope that the relationship between the two of you can be better. This will be beneficial to our cooperation.”

Yun Qing did not believe Wang Fang’s words. It was obvious that he had invited her to a dinner party for Huo Chuan’s sake.

Moreover, Huo Chuan’s motive for meeting her was most likely for the jade ring.

However, wasn’t it better to say it over the phone just now?

“President Huo, if you’re looking for me for the ring, then there’s nothing more we can talk about.”

Yun Qing made it clear that she did not want to talk to Huo Chuan.

“Yun Qing, I just want to apologize to you face-to-face. Don’t take grandpa’s matter to heart.” Huo Chuan’s voice was still soft, which did not conform to his usual public image.
