Chapter 1798: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (2)

Although the newspaper was a little old, one could still see the woman’s exquisite and beautiful facial features and outline from the photos on the newspaper.

Her long black hair fell over her shoulders. She looked fresh and elegant, pure and moving.

Huo Ze looked at the photo for a few seconds before his bright and charming eyes landed on the cold Xia Tang again. “What?”

Xia Tang found it funny when she saw Huo Ze pretending to be calm.

When she had not ended that relationship with him, she had also been puzzled because he would occasionally look at her with a dazed look, as if he was looking at another woman through her.

Later, she found out from Sister-in-law Mo that Huo Ze had a woman he loved very much in the past. It was only because the Huo family disagreed and that woman had an accident that he started to play with people.

Xia Tang had also been curious before. What kind of woman could make him lose his pursuit and goal in life?

After seeing the photos in the newspaper, she realized that the woman he loved was indeed as beautiful as a painting.

What was more ironic was that the woman’s surname was Tang and her nickname seemed to be Tang Tang.

Huo Ze saw the expression in Xia Tang’s eyes and frowned slightly. “Do you think I’m treating you as her substitute?”

There was an expression on his handsome and devilish face that she could not understand. “Indeed, when I heard that your name was Tangtang, I had some thoughts at first, but I did not treat you as a substitute. I just thought that girls called Tangtang are quite interesting.”“After I interacted with you, I found that you were more interesting than I thought. My interest in you also became stronger…”

Xia Tang did not want to hear him say this anymore. They had already ended that relationship and she did not want to be entangled with him anymore.

“Are you trying to tell me that you really have feelings for me?”

Huo Ze took a step forward, wanting to pull Xia Tang into his arms. Xia Tang seemed to have expected that and took a big step back. Her eyes suddenly turned sharp as she looked at Huo Ze. “I wanted to hide some things for the rest of my life, but since you’re pestering me again, I might as well tell you!”

“When we were together, I experienced life worse than death twice. The first time, I was at the hotel and there were many reporters outside. My stomach hurt and I called you to ask you to send me to the hospital.”

“You asked who I was and I said I was Xia Tang. You asked for my surname, then said that I wasn’t her.” Xia Tang’s eyes showed a trace of ridicule. Although it had been a long time, the pain was still fresh in her mind.

“You said that you weren’t a doctor or a savior. You asked me to see the doctor myself, and that you didn’t have the time to care about me.”

“I wanted to tell you about my condition, but I heard a woman’s voice on the phone. That woman said sarcastically that she thought she would become a phoenix because she had caught your fancy…”

Thinking of what had happened back then, Xia Tang still felt a little suffocated and breathless.

Huo Ze looked at Xia Tang in disbelief.

He had no recollection of what she had said, nor did he remember her calling him.He opened his mouth, wanting to say something when he heard her say coldly, “The second time was after we ended that relationship. Perhaps God wants to punish me. It was the same as the first time.”

Xia Tang looked at the shock in the man’s eyes and there were no more emotions in her heart. “I was lying in the hospital and called you, but the person who answered the call was a woman. She said that she was your new girlfriend.”

If she had not said it, Huo Ze really would not know that she had suffered so much.

He took a step forward and grabbed her hand, wanting to slap it at his face, but Xia Tang pulled her hand back forcefully.

She did not want to take revenge and did not want to live in hatred.

Her life now was under her control and she was very satisfied with her freedom.

Now that they were in a new society, women did not have to cling to men. She could live well alone.

Xia Tang looked at the man’s heavy, pained, and frustrated expression. Her expression was cold and emotionless.

She had long been disappointed in him.

She did not have any expectations or hopes, so she did not care about his reaction.

Xia Tang pursed her lips. Before closing the door, she said to him, “I don’t hate you, because there’s only hate when there’s love. I just want to slowly forget our past relationship.”“As for what you were worried about when you came to find me today, I can tell you that it won’t happen.”

She would not be Huo Third Master’s girlfriend and would have nothing to do with the Huo family!

Huo Ze looked up at her, but she closed the door firmly.

They were only a door apart, but it felt like a whole world apart.

Huo Ze’s eyes slowly darkened. A metallic taste filled his throat and he started to cough uncontrollably.

He took out a handkerchief and covered his lips.

His handsome and thin face turned red from coughing nonstop. His organs seemed to be throbbing in pain.

He bowed slightly and left Xia Tang’s apartment.

When he arrived downstairs, he got into the car and took the handkerchief from his thin lips.

The handkerchief was red.

…After Huo Ze came to find Xia Tang, she did not sleep well that night.

She was not an emotionless machine.

When she was with Huo Ze, he had actually been quite good to her.

But those good things were probably because her name was Tangtang!

Xia Tang did not want to think too much about it. She was about to hold a concert and there was still a lot of work waiting for her. She had no time to be sad.

Soon, it was the day of the concert.

There were no empty seats in the large gymnasium. Tangtang’s fans were holding boards and light sticks, wearing T-shirts with Xia Tang’s image printed on them, turning the stadium into a sea of lights.

Xia Tang was doing her makeup backstage. Staring at the sea of lights on the screen, a faint smile appeared on her lips.

…

Halfway through the concert, Xia Tang introduced her guest on stage.

The guest was a good friend of hers.He was playing the piano.

Because she was singing a love song, the fans in the stadium quietened down.

Everyone waved the light sticks in their hands, anticipating Xia Tang and the guest to sing a love song together.

A melodious piano sound rang and the elevator slowly rose. A figure sitting in front of the piano playing slowly appeared in front of everyone.

The person playing the piano was a handsome and cold man in a white shirt. His fingers were long and well-defined, like jade bamboo fingers, beautiful and perfect.

The man’s deep and mellow voice sounded. His voice was like a treasured bottle of French red wine, so pleasant to the ears.

Hearing the man’s voice, Xia Tang was a little stunned.

It was not her guest, but Huo Third Master?

With his status, why would he be her concert guest? Besides, he had always kept a low profile. Apart from attending upper-class banquets and high-end meetings, he never appeared in public.
