Chapter 289 - Ye Shaochen Cheated (1/2)

Huo Yunxi sat on the floor, his back leaning against the bed, his hair messy and his eyes swollen.

“Yunxi, what’s wrong with you?” Intoxicated, he hurriedly went over and helped Huo Yunxi to the bed. Then, he took out his clothes and draped them over her shoulders. He said with concern, “Yunxi, did you hear what I said?”

“Yunxi, my mother, did you hear what I said?”

However, no matter what they said, Huo Yunxi was still sitting on the bed dumbfounded, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Huo Yunxi’s eyes had always been bright. When had they ever seen her like this, all of them immediately became anxious.

“I’ll go find Ye Shaochen.” Huo Yunzhan frowned, his face ashen with anger.

Although he and Ye Shaochen were also considered brothers, Yun Xi was the one who had watched him grow up. Now that he was wronged to such an extent, he truly felt heartache.

“Don’t go.” Huo Yunxi suddenly said. He looked up at Huo Yunzhan and said with tears in his eyes, “Second brother, don’t go.”

Huo Yunzhan’s face turned ashen, “Tell me, what happened?”

Why are the two of them so awkward?

“Yunxi, tell me, what happened? Why did you quarrel with Shaochen?” Intoxicated said softly, “If there is a misunderstanding, you should also solve it.”

Huo Yunxi shook his head, “There is no misunderstanding. All of you go and rest. I want to calm down.”

“Yunxi, how can you let mom rest assured like this?” Liu Yan wiped away her tears anxiously. She sat beside the bed and reached out to hug Huo Yunxi into her arms. “Silly child, you are speaking.”

Intoxicated, she frowned. The corner of her eyes saw the phone that had been smashed on the floor. Her mind moved. She bent down and picked it up. She clicked it open. When she saw the photo on it, her fingers trembled with anger.

“Ye Shaochen, how could you do such a thing!” She gritted her teeth and said, “Bastard!”

Huo Yunzhan took out his phone and looked at it. His expression immediately darkened, as if he had accumulated a lot of storms on his face.

“I’ll get him for you.” Huo Yunzhan said coldly, his fingers wishing to crush the phone into powder.

Tao Zui grabbed Yunzhan and stomped his foot anxiously, “Calm down and figure out what happened. Did someone intentionally frame him? I don’t think Shaochen is such a person.”

Everyone had experienced so many things together. Ye Shaochen had always treated Yun Xi well and cared for her. Moreover, he did not show any signs of cheating before. Why did such a thing happen all of a sudden?

Not to mention that Yun Xi couldn’t accept it, even they felt as if they had been struck by a bolt of lightning from the blue.

When Liu Yan saw the picture on her phone, her entire body trembled with anger. However, seeing Huo Yunxi’s painful expression, she could only suppress her anger. She comforted her and said softly, “Yunxi, you should believe in Shaochen before the matter is investigated clearly.”

If no one wanted to believe that Ye Shaochen was such a person.

“All of you, go out. I want to find someone to be quiet with.” Huo Yunxi said in a hoarse voice and forced a smile at Liu Yan, “Mom, it’s already very late. You should go and rest quickly.”

Liu Yan opened her mouth and said, “Yunxi, you …”

“Yunzhan, send Mom back to rest first. I’ll stay with her.” Tao Zui pushed Huo Yunzhan and looked at Liu Yan, “Mom, don’t worry, I will take good care of her.”

Liu Yan knew that staying was useless, so she could only get up and nod, “Alright, you guys have a chat.”

Only Intoxicated and Huo Yunxi remained in the room, so quiet that they could hear each other’s heartbeats.

“Yunxi, if you want to cry, then cry.” Intoxicated, he reached out to embrace Huo Yunxi and whispered, “Although my shoulders are not thick enough, I can still give you support.”

Her intoxicated words seemed to open the valves of Huo Yunxi’s tears. She hugged her intoxicated hands and cried until she was out of breath, as if she was going to faint at any moment.

“Cry, cry, just cry.” Intoxicated, he comforted Huo Yunxi while patting her back to help her breathe.

After a while, Huo Yunxi let go of his intoxication and said in a hoarse voice, “I thought to myself that as long as he denies it, I will believe him. I can pretend that nothing happened, but he …”

“He didn’t deny it?” Intoxicated, he was also shocked. He grabbed Huo Yunxi’s finger and unconsciously exerted force, “Did someone frame him?”

Now that Ye Shaochen was a senior leader of the Huo Corporation, it was inevitable that uneasy employees would want to take advantage of him.

“No.” Huo Yunxi shook his head, and a desolate smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. “I’m stupid. I don’t know what I should do or even how I should breathe …”

She never knew that a good heart could hurt like that.

Intoxicated, he didn’t know how to describe his inner feelings at this moment.

After living under the same roof for so long, she did not believe that Ye Shaochen was such a person, but Yun Xi said it clearly.

Moreover, Ye Shaochen turned around and left, making her believe it.

“He didn’t say a word?” Intoxicated, he poured a glass of water for Huo Yunxi and comforted him warmly, “Perhaps he didn’t understand what was going on, just give him some time.”

Huo Yunxi raised his head and shook his head with tears in his eyes, “He said ‘I’m sorry’ to me.”

I’m sorry

He admitted that he had wronged him.

Intoxicated, she was stunned and her mind buzzed. She asked herself over and over again, how could this be? How could this be?

Ye Shaochen betrayed Yun Xi?!

“If he doesn’t say anything, I can still find a reason to comfort myself.” Huo Yunxi laughed softly, but it was even more heartbreaking than crying. “But he said, ‘I’m sorry,’ what should I do?”

Intoxicated, Huo Yunxi’s eyes turned red, and he put Huo Yunxi into his embrace. He patted her back gently and said, “Yunxi, we will all accompany you all the time. I promise.”
