Man used to be the campus beauty of the music academy, from a middle-class family. Who would have thought she'd end up like this Before, they didn't believe the posts on the school forum, but now Din...Ho Shao-ting never answered her calls.

He...could he have fallen in love with Wen Man

Wen Man, it turns out she's still her father's biological daughter!

How can that be!

How could she take everything that was rightfully hers!

Joanne's face was twisted with obsession, a cold smile playing on her lips.

So what if they are flesh and blood

As long as she destroys the evidence and gets rid of that half-dead jeweler, no one will know about it. Then Joanne will be Qiao Jingnian's only beloved daughter!

Joanna smiled gently.

She tore the letter to shreds!

Downstairs, her husband was sleeping with the young maid again, making a lot of noise and not caring at all about her as his new bride...

Joan didn't care anymore!

*

On New Year's Eve, in the city.

At the end of the year, Ho Chi-ting had many social engagements, so they hadn't seen each other for several days.

Wen Man spent the New Year with her parents, Wen Bo-yan and his wife.

"Oh dear… the pipe burst!"

From the kitchen came Aunt Ruan's exclamation. When she walked out, her apron was soaked with water, dripping onto the floor.

Wen Boyer hurriedly said, "Change your clothes quickly, don't catch a cold."

Aunt Ruan felt warm and fuzzy inside when her husband showed her care.

She walked toward the bedroom, telling Wen Man as she went, "Wen Man, you call the property management to fix the pipes, otherwise we won't be able to eat our New Year's Eve dinner."

Wen Man hummed in agreement.

She found the property's phone number and made a call.

The property management was quick to act, and the doorbell rang about half an hour later. Wen Man went to open the door.

The door opened, but outside stood Huo Shaoting.

Deep gray high-end coat.

Handsome and mature!

Wen Man was stunned and asked, "How did you get here"

Ho Shao-ting looked at her with a hint of tenderness in his eyes: "You came right after finishing your work"

Wen Man wanted to talk to him outside.

Aunt Ruan changed her clothes and came out just in time to see: "Shaoting is here!"

Ho Shaoting seized the opportunity to enter, gracefully placing the gift in his hand on the shoe rack. He naturally took off his coat and handed it to Wen Man: "Business at the firm has been keeping me busy, otherwise I would have come to visit my father long ago."

Aunt Ruan is very happy.

Just come, you don't need to buy anything!

Ho Shaoting looked at Wen Man, then said very slowly, "The first year, it should be."

Aunt Ruan understood what he meant.

She looked at Wen Boyan without a word, prompting him to come up with a charter.

Wen Boyan also saw it.

Huo Shaoting truly wants to be with his girlfriend, but since their parents haven't met, it wouldn't be proper for either of them to have the other over for New Year's Eve dinner.

Wen Boyan smiled and said, "Things are a bit busy at the end of the year! Wen Man, you entertain Shaoting, but don't keep him too long. He has to go home for the New Year's Eve dinner in the evening."

Auntie Ruan prepared the tea.

She poured tea while saying, "Wen Man, you should ask the property management, why hasn't anyone come to fix the water pipes yet"

Wen Man didn't want to argue with Huo Shaoting, so she wanted to go back to her room and make a phone call.

Ho Shao-ting said, "Auntie, don't bother. I'll do it!"

Aunt Ruan broke into a smile.

"Shaoting, you still know how to do this Never mind... I'll be back. Just don't get your clothes dirty."

"It's fine."

……

Ho Shao-ting has already rolled up his sleeves and is working with tools.

Aunt Ruan asked Wen Man to help her.

A cramped kitchen, the door closed.

Wen Man squatted beside Huo Shaoting, watching his skillful movements. She was actually quite surprised: "I didn't expect you to be good at this!"

Ho Shaoting's eyes were deep.

After a moment, he smiled gently: “I have plenty more to do!”

Wen Man's cheeks were slightly flushed.

This person is too unserious!

Ho Shaoting was indeed not exaggerating. He repaired the pipe quickly and efficiently, finishing it in just a few moves.

Everyone says that men are most charming when they're working, and Wen Man hadn't experienced it before, but now that she was by his side, watching his handsome profile, she felt a flutter in her heart.

Ho Shao-ting put things away and turned his head, a smile that wasn't quite a smile on his face.

"Are you blind Have you never seen a man as handsome as me"

Wen Man felt uneasy and wanted to get up.

Ho Shaoting wouldn't let go. He leaned in close to her and whispered, "I have to go home for dinner tonight! We can go on a date later, I have a New Year's gift for you."

Wen Man hesitated slightly.

She was moved... But...

Ho Shao-ting's eyes were deep and profound.

Suddenly, he leaned in and kissed her on the cheek.

……

"Shaoting, are you done yet"

The door creaked open, and Aunt Ruan just happened to see the scene of the kiss.

Wen Man's face flushed, she didn't know how to react. Huo Shaoting, with an incredibly thick face, got up and washed his hands while smiling, "Aunt Ruan... I want to take Wen Man out to buy some New Year's goods later. We've been too busy these days and haven't had a good chance to shop together."

Aunt Ruan naturally agreed.

"Young people should go out and see the world more."

……

Ho Shaoting washed his hands and straightened his shirt.

He said politely, "I'll send Wen Man back before dinner. On the fifth day of the lunar new year, I want to take her home to meet my parents. Let me inform Uncle and Aunt first."

Auntie Ruan suppressed her joy and let Wen Man change into clothes to go on a date with Huo Shaoting.

Ten minutes later, Wen Man got into that golden Continental.

She bit her lip lightly. “I haven’t agreed to meet your parents.”

Huo Shaoting lit a cigarette, his hand resting on the car window frame...

He gave a wry smile: "I met your parents, shouldn't you meet mine Or do you think marriage is something that doesn't need to be told to our families, just secretly decided"

Wen Manqi angrily turned her head.

Ho Shaoting held a cigarette in one hand and grasped her head with the other.

He kissed her…

After kissing for a long time, he pressed his forehead against hers and whispered, "You don't have to tell them when you go to sleep, but we do need to get married."

Wen Man didn't want to do it so soon.

She asked him, "Didn't you say you had a New Year's gift for me"

Huo Shaoting smiled, he stubbed out his cigarette and started the car.

The car drove toward his apartment, but he stopped halfway.

Ho Shaoting got out of the car and bought a pack of cigarettes, as well as a small box of something. It was big and prickly, placed directly on the dashboard.

Wen Man blushed with anger.

She gently turned her face away: " Huo Shaoting, is this your New Year's gift"

Ho Shao-ting fastened his seat belt.

Hearing this, he tilted his head and lightly scraped her flushed cheeks with a chuckle, "Who said this is meant for you Teacher Wen, are you thinking of getting intimate with me just because you saw this"

He was shameless, and Wen Man didn't bother to pay him any attention.

Ho Shao-ting sat upright, gazing ahead.

He coughed lightly. "Um...Wen Man... I'm not bad in that department, right"

This topic, Wen Man simply can't talk about it.

She had never been with anyone else, the only one being Huo Shaoting. But she vaguely guessed that Huo Shaoting was very demanding among men and lived a good life.

Though she didn't speak, the flush on her cheeks told him the answer.

Everything that follows will come naturally...

Adults, male and female, need not speak much. A single glance is enough to know each other's desires.

As soon as they entered the apartment, Huo Shaoting wrapped his arms around Wen Man's waist from behind. Her waist was especially slender, which he found very appealing. He pressed against her back and murmured softly, "The living room or the bedroom... hmm"

Wen Man was bewildered by his kiss.

She tilted her head back slightly, her pale throat taut...

"Go to the bedroom..."

"Ho Shao-ting... Don't..."Joan stepped forward.She purred, "You had an argument"Ho Shaoting's attitude was bad, and he retorted, "What are you here for again"Joan held up the gift box in her hand: "I'm here to apologize to Mis...
