The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 376

Huo Shao Ting was well aware of her intentions; he knew about her medical examination report.

Although he really wanted her to stay here and recuperate for a while, because he knew she wouldn't obediently stay in bed and rest if they went back home.

But he was more worried that staying here would constantly remind her of the sorrowful past. No matter how luxurious and upscale the place was, it was still a hospital.

Today, she was unusually happy, and her sadness over losing the baby had diminished quite a bit.

"Then let's go back," he answered her with an indulgent tone, holding her in his arms.

Rong Dai's eyes immediately brightened, and she tiptoed to give his thin lips a kiss.

Huo Shao Ting's breath slightly caught as she approached him, arousing his intense passion.

Sensing his change, Rong Dai didn't dare to continue being playful.

First, she felt sorry for him, and second, she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to control herself in such intimate moments.

The couple separated with silent understanding, and they didn't have many belongings, so it was easy to pack up.

Huo Shao Ting wrapped her in a thick and specially windproof down jacket, leaving only her two eyes exposed.

Watching Huo Shao Ting carry her into the car, Rong Dai couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.

The couple didn't arrive home until around ten o'clock in the evening.

As soon as they arrived home, Huo Shao Ting's phone started ringing. Taking advantage of his pause to answer the call, Rong Dai climbed out of the down jacket herself.

Seeing her small home, she stretched lazily, tidied up her things, and took a shower in the bathroom.

She skillfully placed a sanitary pad this time, not daring to catch a chill. After changing into her home clothes, she draped a robe over herself.

Coming downstairs, Huo Shao Ting was still on the phone. His face didn't look good; it was very cold, with a hint of killing intent.

Her heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively slowed her pace and walked up to him.

Huo Shao Ting reached out and embraced her when he saw her approaching.

Rong Dai could clearly hear Zhang Assistant's voice on the phone.

After he hung up, Rong Dai asked softly, "Did Brother Long get caught?"

Huo Shao Ting put the phone aside, worried that standing for a long time would affect her health. He then laid her down on the sofa, cradling her in his arms.

"He was caught. He's still in Shengjing; he didn't escape."

Rong Dai couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. "Is the most dangerous place also the safest?"

That statement only applied in specific circumstances.

If it were an ordinary family instead of the powerful Huo family in Shengjing, they wouldn't have been able to deal with Brother Long.

But he was too arrogant.

"This matter also involves someone else. Zhang Changdong is cooperating with the police to catch people tonight."

Huo Shao Ting tidied up the loose strands of her hair, his voice deep and gentle.

Rong Dai looked at him without asking, but her eyes already conveyed her curiosity.

"It's Yang Yue, Wen Shi Lan's driver."

Huo Shao Ting spoke, and Rong Dai noticed that his gaze became sharp and profound, indicating that there were many things she didn't know.

Little did she expect that Wen Shi Lan would end up in prison, and after the Wen family's company was acquired by the Huo family, they moved overseas as a whole.

Including Wen Runlin, who previously seemed to have a deep sibling bond with Wen Shi Lan, disappeared without a trace after Wen Shi Lan was sent to prison.

In the vast city of Shengjing, the former glory of the Wen family no longer exists.

She had some recollection of the driver who was by Wen Shi Lan's side; he was a young man who appeared somewhat gloomy.

Perhaps even Wen Shi Lan herself had not expected that while the people of the Wen family disregarded her life and death, there was only this one outsider who continued to do things he deemed worthwhile for her.
