After the divorce, she disappeared overnight

Chapter 146 Is it because our faces look similar?

"Wife, take me with you."

The man looked at her flatteringly, his eyes full of expectation.

"You really dare to think so." The woman responded indifferently.

"Hehe...I'm just worried about you. I'm afraid you'd drink too much and don't know the way home." The man continued to please her with a smile on his face.

"Hehe..." Luo Yao sneered.

"Honey, really."

……

She ate the dessert on the table silently and asked casually, "Huo Chenqi, why did you choose me?"

Hearing this, the man's face suddenly became gloomy. He frowned and asked, "Wife, what do you mean?"

"Is it because our faces look similar?"

Luo Yao's voice was unusually calm, as if she was telling a story that had nothing to do with her, but her eyes were staring at the man with great determination.

The man was stunned. He had never thought that Luo Yao would ask such a question, and he himself didn't know why Luo Yao would think of that.

He didn't take Bai Xi seriously at all, so he had no idea what she meant by similarity. At this moment, a complex emotion surged in his heart.

After a moment of silence, the man slowly said: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

"Do you really not understand or are you playing dumb?"

Luo Yao suddenly raised her head and looked directly into the man's eyes sharply, with anger and disappointment flashing in her eyes.

She gripped the spoon tightly in her hand, her knuckles turning white from the force.

"Wife, I like you sincerely, there is no other factor. As for the 'her' you asked about, I don't take her seriously at all. In my heart, there is only you." The man said seriously.

Luo Yao listened to the man's explanation quietly, without any change on her facial expression.

Although she seemed to have gotten the answer she wanted, she still couldn't let it go deep down in her heart.

She knew that this question was like a thorn that had pierced deeply into her heart and was difficult to pull out no matter what.

At this moment, she could only choose to temporarily believe the man in front of her and hope that time would prove everything.

"Wife, I told you that I agreed to her only because of A Che. I originally thought that as long as I let her know that I had never loved her, she would give up, but it turned out that I was worrying too much." He frowned, his tone full of regret.

"What I never expected was that she would actually attack you. Anyone who dares to hurt you must bear the consequences."

"Over the years, I have done what I should do and given what I should give. I have no guilt in my heart."

Luo Yao gently picked up the coffee cup, took a sip and said lightly: "If you were given a chance to choose again, would you..."

"Wife, it's impossible. If I could do it again, I would be honest with you and work with you to deal with it. I would never act on my own." He quickly interrupted Luo Yao and expressed his determination in sincere words.

"Then why was she the one who answered the phone at that time?" Luo Yao asked.

"Wife, it was a complete misunderstanding. My clothes were dirty, so I washed them in the hotel room and left my phone outside the door," he explained hurriedly.

"So, anyone can enter your room?" Luo Yao's eyes became sharp.

"No, no, honey, please believe me. I promise that nothing really happened between her and me."

"Yeah." Luo Yao opened her red lips slightly.

"Wife, don't you believe it?"

The man's brows were tightly furrowed, his deep eyes were fixed on Luo Yao, his lips were pursed straight, revealing a firmness.

Luo Yao lowered her head slightly and chewed the cake in her mouth silently, as if she didn't hear what the man said.

At this moment, her heart was as calm as water, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.

"I will prove myself with my actions." The man spoke again.

At this moment, Luo Yao suddenly scooped out a small spoonful of cake, handed it to the man's lips, and asked softly: "It's delicious, do you want to have some?"

Huo Chenqi obviously did not expect Luo Yao to do this, and was stunned for a moment.

However, he quickly came to his senses, opened his mouth without hesitation, and swallowed the spoonful of cake into his stomach.

"Thank Wife."

Although he has never been fond of sweets, this cake was made by his wife and became particularly sweet and delicious, making him want to take another bite.

"Do you want more?" Luo Yao raised her big watery eyes and stared at Huo Chenqi with a smile.

She was a little full and couldn't eat any more. She felt bad about wasting food, so she asked on purpose in a fit of excitement.

"Yes~ah..." Huo Chenqi opened his mouth obediently, expecting Luo Yao to feed him again.

Seeing this, Luo Yao couldn't help but smile. She pushed the dessert in front of Huo Chenqi and said coquettishly, "Eat it yourself."

Huo Chenqi was stunned for a moment, a trace of disappointment showing on his face.

He was originally very excited, but now looking at the cake in front of him, he suddenly felt bored.

"Eat it up, don't waste it." Luo Yao's voice was soft but firm.

“.....Okay.” Huo Chenqi nodded helplessly. Although he was a little reluctant in his heart, he dared not disobey his wife's orders.

So, he picked up the spoon without hesitation and started to gobble it up in big mouthfuls.

It wasn't long before the plate was empty.

"Have you finished eating? Then go home."

"Okay, I'll go pay the bill, you sit and wait for a while."

Luo Yao nodded obediently, her eyes fixed on his figure that was getting farther and farther away and appearing and disappearing from time to time.

The corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, revealing her joy and sweetness.

After she packed her belongings, she slowly stood up and walked in his direction.

"Why are you here?"

Huo Chenqi was shocked when he suddenly saw her appear in front of him, and hurriedly tucked the cup of water behind him.

"Drink it." Luo Yao laughed out loud.

"Wife...I'm just a little thirsty."

"Okay, stop being so stubborn. Don't force something that doesn't suit you."

"Wife, you can't say that. There's no such thing as suitable or not. The key is whether you want to do it or not."

"It's getting late, let's go back."

"Okay, I'll have another sip of water."

As soon as he finished speaking, he quickly raised his head and took a sip of water. In the blink of an eye, the bottle was empty.

Huo Chenqi quickly caught up with her, took the shopping bag from her, and then left the mall together.

Because the parking spot was far away, the two had to walk for a distance to reach their destination.

"Honey, why don't you wait here for a while? I'll go drive the car over."

"I'm not that hypocritical. Let's go."

"I'm worried that your feet will hurt if you walk too much in high heels."

"It seems you still don't understand me."

"Wife." The man frowned and stopped when he heard this.

"Are you leaving yet?"

Why are you still like a child, getting angry at the slightest provocation?

"Walk."

The two looked at each other and laughed out loud in an instant.

In September, the evenings are still very hot.

At this moment, the setting sun has completely hidden in the clouds, and the twilight sky is dark.
