Wen Li really didn't dare to do it again.

She knew that her back injury could not withstand too much intense exercise. The last time was already the limit, and she didn't know if it would make the injury worse. If it happened again, she would die on Huo Yuanchen's bed.

But she didn't dare to refuse Huo Yuanchen.

She could only rub her head against the man's chest pitifully and asked cautiously, "Does Professor Huo still have the energy?"

Huo Yuanchen didn't really want to do it again. In this kind of thing, he always put in more effort. Wen Li always worked harder at the beginning, but after that he would beg for mercy and act like a spoiled brat.

She has the nerve to say she is tired.

He turned over, leaving his back to her , "No more."

Wen Li pretended not to notice the impatience in his eyes and hugged his waist from behind, continuing to hold him close.

"Professor Huo, can you give me priority for the remaining Pratt?"

She spoke carefully, thinking that men should be easy to talk to when they are satisfied.

Huo Yuanchen didn't say anything, and it was unclear whether he was asleep or just didn't want to pay attention to him.

Wen Li didn't give up, and hugged him again, kissing his back gently, with obvious intentions of trying to please him, "Professor Huo, is this okay?"

Huo Yuanchen stretched out his hand and pushed her away, saying in a cold tone, "Do you dare to believe what a man says in bed?"

Wen Li felt heavy in her heart and exhausted, but she couldn't fall asleep for a long time. She looked at the ceiling, wondering what else she could do to make Huo Yuanchen change his mind.

At two o'clock in the middle of the night, Wen Li was awakened by the ringing of Huo Yuanchen's cell phone. She had just fallen asleep and had a very light sleep, so she woke up at the first ring, earlier than Huo Yuanchen.

Then I saw the person on the screen. It was An Wen.

She didn't know why she wanted to reach out and hang up the phone, but just when she stretched out her arm halfway, Huo Yuanchen stopped her and woke up immediately when he saw that it was An Wen calling.

"What's wrong?" He had no intention of answering the phone behind Wen Li's back, and his tone was gentle, which was completely different from hers.

Wen Li heard the girl crying and asked him, "Brother Yuanchen, where are you? I'm so scared, can you come and stay with me?"

"Okay." Huo Yuanchen agreed without any hesitation.

He put on his clothes as quickly as possible, opened the door and was about to leave.

Wen Li spoke at this time.

"Huo Yuanchen, I'm scared too. Can you stay with me?"

Huo Yuanchen looked back at her, his eyes were cold and without any emotion.

Wen Li sat alone on the two-meter-wide bed, hugging the quilt. The quilt was too big and too thick, making her look small. She looked pale and haggard.

She looked back at Huo Yuanchen without hesitation, her slightly flickering eyes revealing her expectation.

"Can you not leave?"

After she said it, she realized how easy it would be to annoy him, and quickly changed her words, "Or, give me a definite answer. Huo Yuanchen, my father is very important to me, can you give me a definite answer? Even if I beg you."

Huo Yuanchen looked at her, his dark eyes seemed particularly ruthless in the silence at the moment.

In the end, he didn't stay and left without any reluctance.

Wen Li felt suffocated and sat on the bed for a long time. Seeing that the clock had pointed to four o'clock, she forced herself to go to bed.

Before going to bed, she sent a message to Huo Yuanchen, "Come pick me up early tomorrow. I have something to do at home, so I must be back before noon."

When she closed her eyes, she thought, Huo Yuanchen should agree to this request, right? After all, it was he who insisted on bringing her to such a far place, and he had the responsibility to send her back.

He owed her this.

As it turned out, she thought too highly of Huo Yuanchen.

When he woke up the next day, it was almost 11 o'clock. The hotel curtains had a good light-blocking effect, so Wen Li didn't feel the dawn and overslept.

She immediately checked her phone, fearing that she had missed the message that Huo Yuanchen was coming to pick her up.

There were quite a few new messages and two missed calls, both from Hu Huifen. First, she asked her when she could go back, and later she kept urging her to go back quickly.

Wen Li called Huo Yuanchen and wanted to ask him where he was.

It took him a long time to answer the call, and before he could say anything, Wen Li heard An Wen's voice first.

"Brother Yuanchen, try this. I made it myself. Is it delicious?"

The voice was lively and happy, and there was no sign of fear in it.

Huo Yuanchen must have tasted it and said "it's delicious", then he remembered that Wen Li was still waiting for his reply.

"Something?" He asked, his tone both confused and impatient.

Wen Li held back the anger in his heart and asked him, "Did you see the message I sent you last night?"

"Um."

Wen Li thought he would deny it, but he admitted it. Her heart was getting more and more blocked, but she could only suppress her voice, "Why didn't you come to pick me up after you saw me? It was you who said you would send me back, and it was you who took me to Lin County. You also promised to send me back today, Huo Yuanchen, how can you go back on your word?"

The other side didn't speak.

Wen Li waited for his explanation, sneering in her heart and guessing what excuse he would use to fool her.

Probably something like he's busy and can't leave.

After a while, Huo Yuanchen spoke in a nonchalant voice, "I forgot."

Wen Li finally couldn't stand his indifference and hung up the phone.

She didn't bring any luggage, only the clothes he tore last night, and she didn't mind, she picked them up and put them on. The white nurse's uniform was still lying on the carpet, and the torn state showed the madness of last night, and the irony towards her.

Wen Li found a garbage bag, put her nurse's uniform away. The hotel cleaner would come in soon, and she didn't want anyone to know what she did last night, not even strangers.

Huo Yuanchen's attitude towards her made her feel that it was disgusting to do such a thing with him so intimately, and even to put aside her self-esteem and deliberately try to please him.

She bought emergency contraceptive pills at the pharmacy opposite the hotel and swallowed them without water. Huo Yuanchen didn't like to take safety measures when doing that kind of thing, and his mood often made her unpredictable. She was used to putting a box in her bag. She didn't bring it with her when she went back to her hometown these days, and she didn't think she would run into him.

Today is New Year's Eve, and the streets are full of people rushing back home to celebrate the New Year. It's hard to get a taxi in a small county, so Wen Li used a taxi-hailing app and waited for 40 minutes before someone finally accepted the order.

During this period, Huo Yuanchen did not contact her, not even a single message.

When Wen Li rushed back, it was almost two o'clock in the afternoon.

The two aunts will go back to their respective in-laws' homes to celebrate the New Year. Only this lunch today is the real reunion dinner for the whole family. Because Grandma Wen is not in good health, the whole family tacitly regards this meal as more important than in previous years.

Unfortunately, only Wen Li missed the reunion dinner.

She had never hated Huo Yuanchen as much as she did now.
