After getting someone to handle the aftermath, Huo Chengyu drove to the Huo family’s manor.

Beethoven’s piano piece was playing in the car. It was relaxing and melodious.

Shen Yan still remembered that Huo Chengyu had joined a piano competition representing the school. She managed to get a VIP ticket through her connections.

At that time, he was wearing a white tuxedo and playing a Beethoven piece in front of the piano.

While watching him on stage in his glory, she was already certain that she would turn this man into hers in the future.

Later on, she succeeded but unfortunately, it wasn’t a wonderful success.

While she was thinking about it, tears began to well up in her eyes. “Huo Chengyu, I’d like to live life in reverse the next lifetime.

Huo Chengyu slowed the car down and slowly turned to the side to look at her.

Still wearing a decent smile on her face, Shen Yan said, “I want to start life as an old person and get younger as each day passes. I want to turn from a married woman into a young woman. I want to start living from the dead. I will then be able to know of all the secrets before forgetting them. I can even gradually forget you bit by bit.”

Huo Chengyu felt as if there was cotton candy blocking his throat, which was terribly uncomfortable.

With a stuffy feeling in his heart, he could see the tears glistening in her beautiful eyes. He finally couldn’t help but ask, “Do you hate me that much?”

“I don’t hate you, there’s nothing worth hating you for. I just regret it a little.”

Shrugging, she shifted her gaze to look out the window.

Even though it was nighttime, the streets of the city were filled with immense traffic.

Most of the nearly three decades of her life was almost occupied by Huo Chengyu. Her lifestyle habits and hobbies were all influenced by him.

After a long time, Shen Yan finally said again, “Do you know why I chose to become a fashion designer?”

Huo Chengyu chose to remain silent.

“Do you remember what happened at your 13th birthday? Zihang accidentally ripped off the button of your suit and I barely sewed it back on in a very unskilled manner. You complimented me on my sewing and at that time, I decided that I would take care of your closet.”

After yet another long silence, Huo Chengyu said, “Thank you.”

“I’ll take a nap now. Wake me up once we’re there.”

By the time Yan Jinyi and Huo Xishen arrived in the Huo family’s manor, Huo Chengyu was seated alone in the living room and smoking.

“How’s Yan Yan? Where is she?’

Snubbing the cigarette, he looked up at Yan Jinyi to meet her eyes. “It’s alright, she’s already fallen asleep.”

Yan Jinyi trusted Huo Chengyu. Hearing his words, she heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Huo Chengyu, why don’t you remarry Yan Yan!?”

Huo Xishen and Huo Chengyu both seemed shocked.

“I’ve tried so hard to set Yan Yan up with Shen Guanzhou but it doesn’t work at all. It must be because she still hasn’t forgotten about you yet.”

Yan Jinyi spread her hands apart and said helplessly, “Yan Yan has been in love with you for so many years. She can’t just forget you like that. You may be a jerk but you’re also the only man who can give her happiness.”

Huo Chengyu was indeed in a complicated mood tonight, especially after hearing Yan Jinyi’s words.

To be honest, he wasn’t used to life without Shen Yan after their divorce.

It was especially so when he saw the empty side of the closet and the empty basin, which used to be occupied by her skincare products.

“Consider it properly.” After saying that, Yan Jinyi wrapped her arms around Huo Xishen affectionately. “Mr. Huo, hug me to sleep tonight!”

Huo Xishen looked at her with a deep gaze, his eyes filled with her,

“Okay.”

It had been a long time since Shen Yan had slept comfortably. By the time she woke up, it was already past nine.

She quickly washed up and got ready to rush to the office. As soon as she opened the door, she saw Huo Chengyu standing there.

“Shen Yan, let’s start afresh.”
