At Yuxiu Garden .
The light of the bedroom was switched off, it was a dark, silent night . The moonlight crept into the bedroom quietly through the slits between the curtains .
Ning Meng lay on the bed . She had mixed feelings .
She was not angry at Huo Beichen, but at herself .
What was she thinking about? How could that man fall in love with her?
She had even promised herself that she would never care for Huo Beichen . And yet, why would she return to the mansion just because of what he had said that day .
What did he think she was!?
Ning Meng covered her face with the blanket . She wanted to slap herself .
She forced herself to take deep breaths and suppressed the annoyance in her heart .

How useless!
In actual fact, they were just a married couple on the surface . There was nothing to be upset about .
Ning Meng thought about that when her phone vibrated again .
She picked it up immediately and realized that there were some messages from Qi Shan .
Qi Shan: [Stupid girl! I’m telling you now, you’ve got no more chances . ]
[I’ve never seen the boss adore a girl like this . He was quite angry today but his anger disappeared when I told him to buy a gift for the girl he likes!]
[By the way, do you want to know what kind of gift the boss bought for her? A pair of diamond earrings! Each diamond is worth three carats and they’re from Cartier! They’re worth 2 . 19 million!]
Ning Meng was outraged .
How frustrating!

Normally, she would retort to that kind of message, but today, she just couldn’t find it in her to say anything .
She threw her phone aside and closed her eyes .
Downstairs .
Huo Beichen sighed when he saw that the light was switched off . His face darkened and he said to the driver, “Go home . ”
The next day .
Ning Meng woke up early in the morning .
She had not slept well the whole night, and so, her eyes were rather swollen .
She looked at her phone twice . She had only received a message from Zhen Shanmei other than those messages from Qi Shan . “How’re you?”

Ning Meng seemed all excited and energetic all of a sudden . She replied to Zhen Shanmei with a voice message . “No man will love a good woman! We cannot limit ourselves to only a man! The new man will not come as long as we don’t let go of the past! Who the hell is Huo Beichen? How could I abandon the entire forest just because of one tree?”
She was releasing her anger and said all these things to Zhen Shanmei .
Right then, she heard a knock at the door .
Ning Meng walked over to the door and opened it, revealing the man who had just been scolded by her earlier . Why was he standing at the door?
Huo Beichen was wearing a black suit that showed off his nice and tall body . The dark eyes below his short hair seemed rather cold .
Ning Meng stood up straighter subconsciously when she saw him, and she asked, “Why did you come here?”
She sounded unfriendly .
Huo Beichen could not understand why Ning Meng was having a bad mood so early in the morning .
If anything, he was the one who should be angry .
He had returned happily to the mansion yesterday but had not seen her there .
He had come to meet her today just to give her a chance to apologize to him .
Huo Beichen frowned, deciding not to be angry at her .
He took a gift box out from his pocket slowly and put it in her hand . “This is for you . ”
His ears becoming slightly red, he explained, “I bought it casually . ”
Ning Meng looked at the gift with mixed feelings .
Just then, the door of the lift opened with a ding .
Zhen Shanmei appeared and she was looking down at her phone, listening to the voice message which Ning Meng had sent to her just now . As she was holding the phone in her hands, Ning Meng’s voice message was heard throughout the entire floor . “…The new man will not come as long as we don’t let go of the past! Who the hell is Huo Beichen? How could I abandon the entire forest just because of one tree?”
Huo Beichen was stunned .
