You, CEO’s Secret Wife

Shen Faangqi suddenly stood up. She was caught off guard and slapped Huo Liancheng's face. Huo Liancheng tilted his head slightly.    

    

Jian Yun was shocked and subconsciously looked up at Huo Liancheng. Her hands also grabbed his clothes. Huo Liancheng held her hands and comforted her silently. He smiled at Shen Faangqi.    

    

"What are you smiling about?" Shen Faangqi's face was cold and her eyes were full of fierceness as she scolded.    

    

"I even took the initiative to quit. Mother, what else do you have to be dissatisfied with?" Huo Liancheng did not answer Shen Faangqi. Instead, he narrowed his eyes and spoke in a cold voice.    

    

"Just for her?!" Shen Faangqi suddenly pointed at Jian Yun. Her well-maintained face was full of gloom.    

    

Jian Yun was confused. She did not know what the mother and son were talking about. When she saw Shen Faangqi point the topic at her again, she was shocked.    

    

"It has nothing to do with her!" Huo Liancheng pulled Jian Yun behind him and used his tall body to protect her, "I am tired of it. Because of this, Qingcheng almost lost her life. If I did not have a trace of hope, I would not have lasted until now. Mom, you know better than anyone else, don't you?"    

    

"Qingcheng..." When Shen Faangqi heard Huo Liancheng mention Huo Qingcheng, her expression finally loosened. She was no longer as cold as before but was instead stained with a sense of loss. Her eyelashes drooped as if she was thinking about something. She did not speak for a long time.    

    

Huo Liancheng stared at Shen Faangqi. That pair of beautiful black eyes were filled with emotions that Jian Yun did not understand.    

    

Jian Yun was already completely confused when she heard Huo Liancheng's tone. Why did it sound like the reason why her sister became a vegetable was not a natural disaster but a human disaster?    

    

"Mom, I know you don't want to see me. I will leave tonight!" Huo Liancheng took a deep breath. He seemed to be very depressed. After saying this, he walked towards the door with Jian Yun in his arms.    

    

Jian Yun felt something was wrong. She wanted to ask Huo Liancheng but saw that he did not look well. She could only hold back her words. The moment they left the door, Jian Yun looked back and wanted to see Shen Faangqi's expression, but she was surprised.    

    

Huo Liancheng brought Jian Yun back to the room. His face was pale and he was not in good spirits. Jian Yun helped him sit down and asked caringly, "Does the injury on his back still hurt? How about I apply some medicine for you?"    

    

Huo Liancheng pulled Jian Yun's hand that wanted to remove his clothes and hugged her to sit on his legs. He buried his face in her neck and said, "I'm sorry."    

    

Jian Yun was surprised. "Why should I apologize?"    

    

Huo Liancheng raised his head and looked at Jian Yun. "Don't take what my mom said to heart."    

    

Jian Yun remembered what Shen Faangqi said just now and blushed again, "Your mom, she..."    

    

"My mom has a sharp mouth and she never speaks politely. Actually, she doesn't mean any harm, so you don't need to care!" Huo Liancheng stroked Jian Yun's face. When he said these words, his eyes flashed but when he saw the doubt on Jian Yun's face, he asked again, "What are you thinking about?"    

    

"I am thinking about what you said to your mom." Jian Yun's mind was currently filled with Huo Liancheng's way of getting along with his parents. Why was there something strange about it everywhere?    

    

"What did you say?" Huo Liancheng asked.    

    

"What do you mean by quitting? "And your sister..." Jian Yun asked as she sighed in her heart. Everyone in the world envied the rich, but they did not know that there were so many troubles for the rich. People die for money and birds die for food. Since ancient times, as long as there were people, there would be fights. For benefits, there would be no humanity.    

    

Huo Liancheng was silent for a moment as if he was thinking about what to say. Jian Yun saw that he was in a difficult position, so she reached out and pressed his lips, "If it is not convenient to say, then don't say    

    

Huo Liancheng took Jian Yun's hand. His sword-like brows slightly furrowed as he said in a deep voice, "There is nothing inconvenient to say. I did not    

    

Afraid of what?" Jian Yun asked.    

    

"I'm afraid you might dislike me!" Huo Liancheng sighed. He scratched Jian Yun's nose and said helplessly. : "You despise me so much. If you knew about the dirty things in my family, you would have turned around and ran away!"    

    

Jian Yun rolled her eyes at Huo Liancheng. "You sound like I'm scared of small things."    

    

Huo Liancheng smiled. "Actually, it makes sense that you dislike it. Sometimes I dislike it very much. But being born in a family like this is not something I can choose. "    

    

"Do you know that your words are asking for a beating!? Many people are jealous of your family background, but you still dislike it! " Jian Yun blinked mischievously and said with a smile.    

    

"If they knew what kind of life I lived since I was young, they would not have such thoughts anymore!" The smile on Huo Liancheng's face faded. The mist in his eyes was heavy and flashed with an icy cold light.    

    

Jian Yun's heart also trembled along with Huo Liancheng's change in expression.    

    

"Being born with a golden spoon in your mouth, especially in a hundred years old family like this, is not a very happy thing. From the time I remember things, I have been studying non-stop. I have no time to play like the children of ordinary families. I left home when I was five years old, so my relationship with my mother is not very close. Moreover, she suffered a lot when she was pregnant with me, so my mother has always been very cold to me. On the contrary, she loves Qingcheng. When I was young, I saw that she was so good to Qingcheng, but she was strict to me. I hated her very much, so I will work harder to let her see my accomplishments."    

    

Huo Liancheng began to narrate. His voice was as cold as usual. If Jian Yun did not know some things, she would have thought that he was talking about something    

    

But until I grew up, my mother had always been so cold to me. The only time she hugged me was because Qingcheng won the prize in the piano competition.    

    

Huo Liancheng paused for a moment. His eyes were a little scattered. Then he continued, "Ever since I was young, I did not feel any kinship. I However, just as you heard, such a big family, even though they looked glorious on the surface, there had always been internal strife. My father's family was the eldest wife. A hundred years ago, the eldest wife But when I was young, my health was not good. When I was ten years old, I had a serious illness and almost lost my    

    

They attacked you When Jian Yun heard this, she also guessed the development of the matter.    

    

Huo Liancheng's voice was still calm, but the coldness in his eyes revealed his emotions. "They did everything to me, including my serious illness."    

    

"They..." Jian Yun was puzzled. "But I still don't understand why you said you quit, just like your mother said."    

    

This time, Huo Liancheng was silent for a longer time. It was not until Jian Yun thought that he would not answer that he opened his mouth. "Because my second uncle is my mother's first love. I have a half brother!"    

    

When Jian Yun heard this, she was completely confused. Her mind was also in a mess. She looked at the indifferent Huo Liancheng and did not know what to say.
