Chapter 162 Familiar Strangers
When Xu Zhiyang was brought to the interrogation room, Huo Ting was like a proud lion who never bowed his head. He was born to be a man at the top of the food chain and was not afraid of any scene.
The police asked her to sit opposite Huo Xushen.
"Speak out boldly about what happened in the car. As long as it is true, we can make the decision for you!"
Xu Zhiyang glanced at Huo tingshen from the corner of his eye. Nothing substantial happened in the car.If she insisted on Huo Tingshen's sexual assault, the police would not be able to draw a conclusion.
After all, if you can’t see it through surveillance, you can’t just say it.
Moreover, with Huo tingshen's methods, no one can do anything to him.
Xu Zhiyang is worried that once any news reaches his grandfather, it will undoubtedly be a huge blow to the current grandfather.She weighed it for a long time before speaking.
"I'm sorry, comrade policeman. We are getting divorced recently. We had a fight in the afternoon, but nothing happened."
The older policeman snorted in disbelief.
"Women must know how to safeguard their own rights. In a place like this, you are not afraid of anyone and can speak out boldly about anything."
Xu Zhiyang almost didn't think about it and confirmed again and again,
"Comrade police, I'm sorry. I'm canceling the report."
The police's eyes fell on Huo Tingshen. From beginning to end, Huo Tingshen lowered his eyelids and did not look at her or say a word. He did not pose a threat to the woman beside him.
It was the woman who withdrew the report on her own initiative.
Reluctantly, the police had no choice but to let him go.
The two came out of the police station one after another, Huo Tingshen walked in front with long legs.
The city has been shrouded in chaos at night.
The cicadas on the tree kept chirping, and the sound was continuous and long, as if they were telling about the heat of the midsummer night.
The wheels of the suitcase Xu Zhiyang was pulling rubbed against the floor, making a rumbling sound that could not be ignored even if he wanted to.
Huo Ting stopped suddenly and looked back at the box. His eyes seemed to have been hardened. A few days ago, the two people who were showing off their affection in front of the entire company's employees were now so intimate that they called the police.
"Where are you going to escape this time?"
He was still angry with her for moving away from Jinyuan and walked away without even saying hello to him.How many times has this runaway from home?
Fortunately, he postponed the evening meeting because he was thinking of going home early to have dinner with her.She has already found a spare tire, and she has Lao Wang next door on her phone. She doesn't care whether she eats the meal or not. On the contrary, she feels more comfortable when he is not at home.
Xu Zhiyang didn't realize the weirdness in his voice for a moment, she said, 'Huh? ’ said, and then replied,
"I'm going back to the hospital to stay with grandpa."
Her answer surprised Huo Ting. When he just saw her appearing with the box, he felt an unknown fire in his heart. Now she doesn't report her whereabouts to him at all, and it depends on her mood if she wants to contact her.
What a wonderful Mrs. Huo!
Hearing her talk about going to the hospital, his hair became smoother.
"Grandpa has a caregiver and Uncle Zhong, so you don't need to stay with him day and night."
How could he have imagined that Xu Zhiyang was using every opportunity to fulfill his filial piety to his grandfather.
According to her plan, she would flee the city on the day she got the divorce certificate. There were only twenty days left in the one-month cooling-off period. This month would be the longest month in her life.
She would mark a number on her calendar every day when she opened her eyes, and even dreaming was an escape.
Xu Zhiyang lowered his eyebrows and smiled slightly, and replied, "I do."
Huo Ting didn't know why she was laughing. Jiang Zheng came to meet him from a distance. He was a discerning man and asked for the box from Xu Zhiyang.
"Madam, parking is not allowed here, we need to cross the road."
Xu Zhiyang planned to take a taxi. She didn't want to stay with him for a minute. It felt really suffocating to become a stranger with the person she was most familiar with.
"Assistant Jiang, don't bother. You send Mr. Huo off, and I'll just take a taxi."
When she spoke, she didn't even look at the person next to her. Her expression was dull and her eyes were distant. She called him "Mr. Huo" and vividly displayed the differences between the couple every word.
Jiang Zheng didn't dare to get involved in the matter between the young couple. He glanced sideways at Huo Tingshen. He had a straight face and an unclear look in his eyes. Jiang Zhengren had been with him for so many years, and he couldn't guess what he was thinking at this moment.
So, should I send my wife to the hospital?
One firmly said there was no need to send it away, while the other remained silent.
A phone ringing broke the deadlock. Xu Zhiyang took out his cell phone from his bag and picked it up calmly.
"Okay. I'll be there soon. Please wait for me on the roadside."
The online taxi she ordered arrived.
Jiang Zheng raised his eyes and looked at Huo Tingshen again. He still had the same expression as before. He was really worried about the CEO. He thought to himself, Mr. Huo, stop being so arrogant and put down your body to coax her. Your wife is running away!
When a woman is neither noisy nor clingy, nor asks a man for help with anything, the relationship is basically hopeless.
The three of them walked out of the compound in silence and turned onto the road. Not far away, a Volkswagen drove up with double flashers.
Xu Zhiyang took two quick steps around to Jiang Zheng to get the box.
"Assistant Jiang, give it to me, please."
Jiang Zheng coughed lightly and wanted to say something to persuade him, but found that he was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say.The current situation is simply that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry. The key point is that he is not in a hurry. Based on his experience, the wife is so determined this time that she will not be able to pull back ten cows.
Seeing Jiang Zheng's hesitation, Xu Zhiyang said a few more words,
"Assistant Jiang, give it to me, don't waste Mr. Huo's time."
Huo Ting was silent all the way and finally spoke,
"give her!"
These two words made Jiang Zheng shake his head and let go.
After saying that, he walked towards the opposite side of the road with his incredibly long legs. Parked opposite was his eye-catching limited edition Bentley.
Jiang Zheng trotted to follow him, looking back from time to time. His wife had already walked to the online car-hailing car with her suitcase, and was struggling to stuff the suitcase into the trunk.
Jiang Zheng sighed,
"Mr. Huo, do you want to take a photo of the license plate number?"
"Need not!"
What was waiting for was two more words.
Jiang Zheng sat in the driver's seat and silently memorized the license plate number in front of him.There has been a lot of negative news about online ride-hailing some time ago, so it’s always right to be vigilant.
He knew that his president was angry, and as an assistant, he couldn't be careless.
Huo Ting got into the car and leaned against the back seat and squinted for a few minutes. It was freezing cold without turning on the air conditioner in the car.
He looked out the car window at the colorful city night scene, and some unprovoked memories came to his mind.
Just a few months ago, she frowned and complained in front of him that she came home too late every day and could not accompany her to the mountains to see the night view.
The night view of Beijing is famous throughout the country. Many tourists must climb Jingshan Mountain to see a grand night view.
When the neon lights up, look for your own light.
Now, the light in Xu Zhiyang's heart went out.
Huo Ting came back to his senses and found that Jiang Zheng followed the Volkswagen in front of him unhurriedly until the car stopped at the entrance of the hospital, then turned around and drove towards the company.
Regarding Jiang Zheng's self-assertion, he didn't reprimand him, and he acquiesced in his heart.
