377 Husband And Wife Who Don’t Share A Room
Huo Feng was clearly the most hypocritical, cold, and unscrupulous person in the Huo Family, but he left a very positive impression on everyone. Of course, this also meant that he was the best at pretending among the Huo Family…
Therefore, in order not to let his disguise be exposed, after Huo Feng left Mr. Huo’s room, he turned around and walked towards the master bedroom where Mrs. Huo was.
That’s right, Mr. and Mrs. Huo, the model couple who were very close and loving in front of outsiders, had already started sleeping in separate rooms before Huo Feng was born.
As for the reason, although the two of them had simultaneously hidden it for so many years, Huo Feng could roughly guess it based on the information he had gathered.
In fact, before Huo Feng was born, there was a period of time when Mr. Huo wanted to divorce Mrs. Huo and then have a political marriage with an uprising family.
At that time, Mrs. Huo no longer had a maternal family to back her up. If she wanted to have a firm foothold in the Huo Family, she could only rely on her own capabilities. However, she had been spoiled since she was young and hadn’t come into contact with work for several years after her marriage. She was unable to improve her capabilities in a short time, making it hard for Mr. Huo to leave her.
Therefore, Mrs. Huo thought of an effective method back then.
After calculating her menstrual cycle, Mrs. Huo specially chose a time when she would be easily pregnant and drugged Mr. Huo. After the two of them slept together, Mrs. Huo quickly found out that she was pregnant.
At first, Mr. Huo was very angry. At that time, he was already in contact with the young miss from a wealthy family who wanted to marry him. He was organizing his businesses, wanting to reduce his losses when he proposed a divorce with Mrs. Huo. However, he was tricked by Mrs. Huo during this period. In his anger, Mr. Huo almost hit the pregnant Mrs. Huo. Fortunately, Mrs. Huo was quick-witted and pretended to be unwell and fainted. Thereafter, she even hid in the hospital until she gave birth to Huo Feng.
Mr. Huo hated his wife’s schemes against him. From then on, he never slept with Mrs. Huo again.
Over the next decade or so, Mrs. Huo worked conscientiously and tried hard to improve her social skills, becoming a role model for wealthy ladies praised by everyone and also an indispensable assistant to Mr. Huo. However, Mr. Huo was wary of Mrs. Huo from the start to the end. He didn’t want to be schemed against by someone else, so he had been sleeping separately from Mrs. Huo until now.
However, who would have known that the model couple who were inseparable and loving outside had not slept together for more than ten years?
This was also an extremely ridiculous scene in this family. When he was young, Huo Feng had once treated this matter as an interesting riddle, imagining that one day, he would uncover the truth and perhaps obtain a very fantastical and amazing secret. However, the current him no longer had such naive thoughts.
In the huge master bedroom, there was no one else other than Mrs. Huo, and she didn’t meticulously carry out the tedious skincare routine as usual.
She just sat in front of the dressing table in a daze. The mirror clearly reflected half of her swollen face, but Mrs. Huo acted as if she didn’t see the injuries on her face. Her gaze was empty as they landed on a certain spot in the void. No one knew what she was thinking.
Huo Feng pushed the door open and realized that Mrs. Huo was in a daze. He bent his fingers and knocked lightly on the door. The crisp knocks reminded Mrs. Huo that someone was entering her room.
Mrs. Huo came back to her senses and turned to look at the door. When she realized that it was Huo Feng, she instinctively wanted to smile.
However, the curling of her lips tugged at the wound on her cheek. The pain made Mrs. Huo frown deeply. She also recalled the scene of her being ignored by Huo Feng earlier, so her expression turned cold.
Mrs. Huo shifted her gaze away and stopped looking at Huo Feng. Instead, she scanned the bottles and cans on the dressing table as if she was considering which skincare product to use next.
