Chapter 1797: Huo Ze and Xia Tang (1)That car suddenly turned on its headlights.

The strong light shot toward Xia Tang.

She could barely open her eyes.

Before Xia Tang could react, the car sped toward where she was standing.

The car was so fast that Xia Tang was shocked for a moment but dodged instinctively.

But the car would go wherever she went, as though she was playing a cat and mouse game.

Xia Tang did not know what she had stepped on, but she tripped and fell to the ground.

She could not run anymore and could only see the car driving toward her.

Just when she thought that the car would roll over, the car stopped.

Xia Tang took off her high heels and stood up.

At the same time, the car door was opened.

A tall figure got out of the car.

Xia Tang stood on the spot without moving, watching the man approach her.

The dim light in the district fell on him and that handsome and devilish face slowly appeared in Xia Tang’s sight.

After ending that relationship with him, Xia Tang had returned to her natural self.

Her long curly hair had been straightened and was no longer dyed. It had turned black and straight.

She no longer wore sexy clothes in private. As long as she did not work, she was comfortable and casual, nor did she put on any heavy makeup.

The man in front of her sized her up.

A video he saw at a gathering with his friends appeared in his mind.

He had a childhood friend who had a flight attendant girlfriend. His girlfriend had secretly recorded a video of his Third Uncle kneeling down to a woman on the plane and asked her to be his girlfriend.

His Third Uncle had never been close to women. The Old Master had urged him countless times, but he had always used the excuse of being busy to refuse.

The Old Master had prepared a photo album for him. It was filled with all kinds of unmarried socialites. As long as he chose them, the Old Master would get someone to talk to them about marriage.

But he said that he had someone he liked.

When the family found out, they exploded.

All of them were extremely curious. What kind of woman could capture Huo Third Master’s heart?

Until tonight, when Huo Ze saw that video on his childhood friend’s phone.

He then realized that the woman was Xia Tang.

In the video, Xia Tang was wearing a simple and elegant long white dress. Her long black hair was draped over her shoulders and she had no makeup on her face. She was clean and beautiful.

It was nothing like when she was with him. Whenever they met, she would put on thick makeup and make herself into a slut that he hated.

Huo Ze knew that she did it on purpose.

At first, he did not care about her. However, after getting to know her, he found out some of her strengths.

For example, she was a very hardworking girl.

She would get up to run and exercise every day before dawn. No matter how hard and tiring her work was, she would not complain.

She was very talented. The songs she wrote were thoughtful and recognizable.

She was very good at drawing. It was only later that he heard that she had originally studied art. She hated him very much and even secretly painted him into the image of a comic villain.

She had a mild personality, unlike the girls he dated in the past who were very clingy. If he did not contact her, she could ignore his existence.

She was also very fragile. Sometimes, she would cry in her dreams in the middle of the night. Then, she would snuggle into his arms and punch his shoulders ruthlessly, calling him a bad person!

When the two of them cut ties, Huo Ze did not feel much, just like when he ended his other relationship with his exes.

He was still the handsome Young Master Huo.

There were many women around him who wanted to suck up to him.

However, he was no longer interested.

He suddenly did not like to play anymore.

He turned his attention to work. In the past two years, he had received many praises from the Old Master, saying that he was born to be a businessman.

In the past, when the Old Master saw him, he would only scold him, saying he was a wastrel and a playboy.

There were many talents in the Huo family. Third Uncle and Fourth Uncle were all outstanding talents, except for his parents who were mediocre. However, even if they were mediocre, they were born in the Huo family and did not lack money to spend.

The annual dividends from their shares was enough for their family to last until their next lifetime.

When Huo Ze was young, his parents often whispered to him that he did not need to stand out at home. It would be fine as long as he grew up safely and healthily, opened a small company and married a girl he liked.

The Huo family had their grandfather, uncles, and aunties. Huo Ze really did not need to worry.

In the past few years, he really did not do his job and wasted a lot of time.

After ending it with Xia Tang, something happened and for some reason, he started focusing all his attention on work.

After getting the attention of the Old Master, he found a new world. He used to think that the Huo family was aloof from worldly affairs, but when he started, he realized that everything before was just an illusion.

The fights between the rich and powerful families were far crueler than he had imagined.

…

Xia Tang felt her scalp tingle from Huo Ze’s gaze. She furrowed her eyebrows and took a step back, putting some distance between them. She said coldly, “Young Master Huo, what’s the matter?”

During their best relationship, she had been forced to call him Ah Ze, Ze… and now, he had become the Young Master Huo she was talking about.

Huo Ze strode in front of Xia Tang, his large hand pressing on her thin shoulders. “Don’t accept him.”

Xia Tang naturally knew who he was referring to.

A mocking smile appeared on Xia Tang’s fair face. She pushed Huo Ze’s hands away from her shoulders and her eyes turned cold. “Young Master Huo, what right do you have to request me to do so?”

“It’s impossible for him not to know about our past relationship.”

“Don’t flatter yourself, okay? I’ve known Third Master for a long time. I know his personality very well.” Xia Tang looked at Huo Ze’s handsome and devilish face. When she looked closer, she realized that he had lost a lot of weight and his eyes were slightly sunken, looking like he was not in a good mood.

Xia Tang pinched herself secretly. It didn’t matter anymore. What did it have to do with her whether he was thin or fat?

Xia Tang did not want to argue with him here, so she said to him, “Young Master Huo, come with me.”

Huo Ze narrowed his eyes slightly. “What do you mean?”

Xia Tang did not explain anything and entered the building first.

Huo Ze followed her to the apartment.

When she reached the door, she stopped him from going in again. “Wait here for me. I have something to show you.”

Xia Tang entered the apartment and took out an old newspaper from the drawer.

She took the newspaper and walked in front of Huo Ze, who was leaning against the door and smoking. “Young Master Huo, you should have a deep impression of this woman on the newspaper, right? You know her name even without me saying it, right?”

Huo Ze looked at the old newspaper Xia Tang was holding and his eyes darkened when he saw the photo in the newspaper.
