To My Dear Mr. Huo Chapter 710

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The mountain breeze was slightly chilly,

Shi Mengwan looked at him. She had some guesses in her heart, but she wasn't sure.

Zhan Haoze turned around and looked at her. His voice was very soft, “Because I met you.”

Shi Mengwan was stunned for a moment. When she met the gentleness in his eyes, her heart trembled.

“Dear Brother?”

“En.” Zhan Haoze smiled. That smile was very light. However, it overlapped with when Qiao Ze was a teenager.

At that time, he wanted to take revenge. After coming to Lin City, he had nothing and couldn't do anything to Zhan Kun. Although he wanted to take revenge, he couldn't find a way.

What was worse was that after Zhan Kun found out that he ran away, he sent people to hunt him down several times. He was lucky, and Zhan Kun was focused on expanding his business during that period of time, so he wasn't able to focus all his efforts on dealing with him.

Otherwise, it was unknown whether he would be able to survive.

Naturally, there were other reasons for this. Zhan Lie had come to Lin City and stayed for many years. Naturally, he hadn't stayed for nothing.

Although he looked like an ordinary employee, he had come from the Zhan family after all. He had kept people in Lin City.

Those people eventually became Zhan Haoze's helpers. After coming to Lin City, Zhan Haoze changed his name.

His surname was Qiao, and his name was Qiao Ze. He lived in seclusion in a bungalow and rarely interacted with others. Not only did he not want to be conspicuous, but the most important thing was that he didn't want Zhan Kun to say that he had borrowed the Zhan family's power in the end.

Even if those people were Zhan Lie's, they were still members of the Zhan family. Since his surname was Qiao, he had nothing to do with the Zhan family.

He was only fourteen years old, so there wasn't much he could do. However, this didn't prevent the flames of revenge from burning in his heart.

He lived in a bungalow. This area was shady and the situation was chaotic. Although he was only fourteen years old, he had already seen the dark side of the Zhan family.

In terms of methods, these hooligans weren't more powerful than Zhan Kun.

In terms of ruthlessness, Zhan Haoze, who was bent on revenge, was like Satan, unstoppable.

After he subdued a few hooligans by force, he began to expand his territory step by step.

The time he met Shi Mengwan was a mistake. He was too impatient and accidentally provoked a local gang leader called Brother Liang. Behind Brother Liang was a slightly famous and powerful leader in Lin City called Big Brother Hui.

Brother Liang lost face at his hands, so he picked a night and found a dozen people to find him.

That day, he was also careless and let his subordinate go back first. At that time, he had already been in Lin City for a year. In this year, he relied on his fierce fighting skills to improve a lot.

The youth felt that his skills weren't bad and didn't take this group of people seriously. In the end, it was impossible for him to not lose against a dozen people.

Just when he thought that he was going to die there, Shi Mengwan appeared.

She was actually very timid and didn't dare to do anything else. She only shouted that the police were coming and saved him.

However, this person was quite smart and knew to create some noise.

Brother Liang's people left. His entire body was in an unusual pain from being beaten, but he knew that someone had saved him.

He walked around the alley and arrived in front of Shi Mengwan. Only then did he realize that the little girl had fallen to the ground in fright.

She was clearly so scared that her face had turned pale, but she forced herself to remain calm and didn't run away. For some reason, he took the bread from her bag and ate it.

It was true that he was pretending to be hungry to take the opportunity to teach her a lesson. He didn't expect that the little girl was timid and dared to teach him a lesson, saying that he was littering?

Ha, how ridiculous. Who would care about where to throw the rubbish in that area? What was even more unexpected was that not only did the girl dare to teach him a lesson, she even dared to follow him home.

The days that followed were somewhat out of his imagination.

Not only was she bold, but she was also stupid. She gave him all the money she had on her. He thought that he wanted to take her in by himself, but he didn't expect that she would run away the next day.

She was really stupid. She ran away but was caught. If it weren't for him, she would have been taken away.

If one or two people went missing in this area, there would be no news at all. After that, it was much simpler.

She regarded herself as a lifesaver and called him Dear Brother.

He didn't care. It was just one more person to eat with. As long as she didn't mind, he didn't care.

But after having her, his life was indeed much better. At least he ate three normal meals a day, instead of having an irregular eating schedule.

Later on, things got out of his control.

That year, during the Lantern Festival, there was a bowl of fermented rice balls with alcohol in them. He looked at her red face under the light, and suddenly, he couldn't control the impulse in his heart.

There was that tender kisses, and the intimacy of sleeping together every day. At that time, he was already fifteen years old, and had been on the streets for so long, so he knew almost everything.

He knew in his heart that he had developed a deep desire for the girl.

He didn't feel that this was something that couldn't be said. But in the current situation, he couldn't do anything.

His plan was slowly unfolding, and the number of followers he had taken in was also increasing, but it wasn't enough. He still had to take revenge.

Moreover, she was too young. She hadn't even had her period yet.

She was really too young, even if he could wait for her to grow up, for him, she could not just follow him like this. After all, he still had revenge to take, and she should live a normal life, instead of being like him, a gangster on the street.

So he thought of a way to find a colleague of Qiao Ruoliu's who had a good relationship with Qiao Ruoliu. Then he arranged for her to go to school.

His relationship with Shi Mengwan was getting better and better. He could see the affection in the girl's eyes when she looked at him. He could also feel the girl's closeness to him every night. She would snuggle in his arms and fall asleep. She would cook dinner every day and wait for him to come home.

She did her homework under the light. She was very focused.

He could see that she liked going to school very much. Even though she fallen behind a lot, there was a smile on her face. She obviously liked going to school.

Not only did she study well, but she also took better care of him because she could go to school.

Apart from cooking, she even knew how to tailor clothes. For a period of time, he even felt that apart from being too young, they were no different from a husband and wife at other times. ..

Later on, he saw how eager she looked when she said that she wanted to be a fashion designer when she grew up.

At that time, Shi Mengwan's eyes were bright.

This was good. She would do what she liked while he would do what he wanted to do. He let her go to school and worked hard to help her realize her dreams.

And his methods outside became more and more ruthless because he wanted to become stronger as soon as possible.

Everything was going smoothly. He thought that when he became more powerful, he would take revenge. Shi Mengwan had also grown up. At that time, they could truly be together.

What he didn't expect was that his rapid rise had offended Big Brother Hui. He had sent people to deal with him.

That day, Shi Mengwan said very happily that she wanted to go play. He knew about Mount Qin. He had been there before. When he was young, he had followed his parents.

Those memories had become trauma that he didn't want to touch upon.

However, when he saw Shi Mengwan's smiling face, he couldn't refuse. They went to Mount Qin, climbed the mountain, and played. Everything was blissful.

She was happy, and so was he.

He thought that this happiness would go on forever. However, when he went down the mountain, he met Big Brother Hui's people.

It wasn't just Big Brother Hui. The people who came after him were Zhan Kun's people.

When he was beaten to the ground and couldn't get up, he saw that Shi Mengwan was kicked by someone and her body flew out.

At that moment, his mind was torn apart.

He was beaten to the point that he couldn't resist, not to mention that the other party had a weapon in his hand, and he was alone.

At the moment he lost consciousness, he thought that he was dead meat for sure. The only regret was that such a life was indeed a dream for him.

Not only could he not live a peaceful life, but he had also implicated Shi Mengwan. If he could, if he could, he would definitely let her go back and live a truly peaceful and normal life.

However, Zhan Haoze didn't expect that when he opened his eyes again, not only was he not dead, but he was also saved.

The person who saved him was Chen Feifei. Chen Feifei happened to see his face at that time. As a little girl, she was obsessed with looks and liked handsome men.

At that time, Shi Mengwan was lying behind a tree. Chen Feifei didn't see her at the time, and she only saw Zhan Haoze.

She brought Zhan Haoze home. After Zhan Haoze woke up, he knew that he was saved by Chen Feifei, and he also understood the situation in the shortest amount of time.

Chen Yongchang's company could be considered large in Lin City. Although it couldn't be compared to the Su and Li families, it still had some power, especially since Chen Yongchang's external family was thriving in the province.

He quickly realized that this was a perfect shelter, especially when Chen Feifei, who was still young, had a special liking for him.

He used the power of the Chen family to go to school, start his own business, and develop his own power. Of course, he also repaid his gratitude to the Chen family. This could be considered as a mutually beneficial relationship.

As for Shi Mengwan, she was suppressed in the corner of his memory and was no longer mentioned.

Before he succeeded, before he had any abilities, the further he was from her, the safer it would be for her.

What if Shi Mengwan was with another man?

He thought about it. That was good. There was nothing bad about it. At least, she would be safer and happier than being by his side.

After all, the more he grew up, the more he understood what kind of Colossus the Zhan family was. With his current ability, it was impossible for him to touch the Zhan family.

He could only take things slowly. Slowly. Moreover, he was prepared to die together with Zhan Kun if he really couldn't get revenge. No matter what, he had to take revenge for his parents and sister.

But he really didn't expect to meet Shi Mengwan.

In the hospital, she looked at him and called him Dear Brother with surprise and joy.

At that moment, he could feel the impulse in his heart. It was a kind of amazement. He looked at Shi Mengwan and had a feeling that she was indeed so.

She had grown up and was so beautiful that her beauty couldn't be described with words. He had once imagined how that bright and beautiful girl who loved to smile would look like when she grew up.

He had imagined that she would grow up to be very beautiful. But he had never thought that she would be even more beautiful than he had imagined.

When he saw her calling him Dear Brother with a face full of surprise, and when he saw her pouncing over with a face full of surprise and wanting to acknowledge him, he almost agreed.

But it was only a close call. Those emotions were perfectly restrained by him.

His path was the path of loneliness. He didn't need friends, nor did he need love.

He could endure not looking for Shi Mengwan for more than ten years, so he could force himself not to see her or acknowledge her in the future.

But the coincidences and encounters over and over again made his heart more and more out of control.

He tried his best to push her away, but she tried her best to make him admit his identity. Until that time, until when he was drugged and lost control.

No, it couldn't be considered as losing control. He instinctively hoped that he would have a woman. That woman was Shi Mengwan.

However, this didn't work. His people from Qing City fell into Zhan Kun's hands from time to time. Zhan Kun was careful and never left any traces.

Uncle Chi had followed him for decades, so there was no need to elaborate on his loyalty to him.

If he hadn't borrowed the power of the Chen family, he wouldn't have just learned a lesson.

His treatment of Shi Mengwan was sometimes cold, sometimes warm, sometimes distant. With the impulsiveness of his youth, and Shi Mengwan's beauty after she grew up, he wanted to push her away, but he was also reluctant to part with her.

He wanted to get close, but he was afraid that it would make her unsafe.

His progress Qing City was smooth, but it was only on the surface. The Zhan family was too big, and Zhan Kun had supported them all these years.

Zhan Lie's brothers and his grandchildren all had their own schemes.

The Zhan family's situation was very chaotic, but because of Zhan Kun's strength, they were firmly under his control.

He could only tear open the Zhan family bit by bit. In this process, Shi Mengwan felt all the coldness and neglect from him. It was all because he had no other choice.

He knew how much Shi Mengwan was in pain, but he couldn't say anything. He couldn't say anything.

When he had nothing, Shi Mengwan was willing to suffer with him. Now that the danger was like this, Shi Mengwan probably wanted to be by his side more.

But he couldn't. He would rather stay away from her. He would rather be engaged to Chen Feifei.

But he didn't expect that he had overestimated his self-control. When Xiao Qi and Wan Xianyang appeared by Shi Mengwan's side one after another, he still couldn't control himself. He wanted to trap her by his side and make her belong to him from the bottom of his heart.

He was a selfish man. If he didn't see Shi Mengwan, if he didn't see her, then he could really let her marry and be with other men.

But he couldn't. If he didn't get her, then it didn't matter if he lost her. But after getting and losing her, he realized that he couldn't accept it.

Reminding her that she belonged to him, he could only destroy her being with other men again and again, trapping her by his side again and again.

On the surface, he was very successful, but he knew that she wasn't happy. If he wanted her to be happy, he had to stop taking revenge. This was even harder for him.

In this dilemma, he sped up his actions, but he found a new obstacle.

He wanted Zhan Kun's life, but he didn't want to put himself in danger anymore, because of Shi Mengwan, He still wanted to be with her, spend the rest of their lives together, form a family together, and perhaps have one or two children.

So, he hesitated. When Uncle Chi came looking for him, he decided to stick to his plan.

He wanted to get the Zhan family and make Zhan Kun pay the price, but he didn't want to have anything to do with the Zhan family.

“Wanwan.”

Zhan Haoze wrapped his arms around Shi Mengwan's waist and held her in his arms. “I'm sorry.”

He didn't acknowledge her when she recognized him and didn't explain it to her right away.

This was his pride, but it was also his selfishness.

Shi Mengwan's nose was a little sore, and her eyes were swollen and uncomfortable. She buried her face in his chest. She had received too much news today, and she didn't know how to react.

She had always known that he was her Dear Brother, but she had never thought that one day he would personally admit it.

“I thought that you would never admit it in this lifetime.”

“I'm sorry.” Other than these words, Zhan Haoze didn't know what else he could say.

Shi Mengwan shook her head. How proud was he? She had known it before.

Seeing that he never told her anything, she could roughly understand. In his heart, he always liked to place himself in the position of a protector.

“I should have told you earlier.”

Shi Mengwan didn't care about what he said. What she cared about was something else.

She looked up at him with tears in her eyes. “You said that if I didn't recognize you, you wouldn't have come to find me?”

“Yes.”

“Even if I was with another man? Even if I got married and had children?”

Zhan Haoze's expression was a little subtle, but he still nodded. “Yes.”

Shi Mengwan's eyes were redder than before. “Do you know that if you really did that, it would be the most cruel thing to me?”

“Wanwan?” He knew, but he also believed that even if that was the case, she would still be doing very well.

“I've been looking for you for more than ten years, but they all said that Qiao Ze doesn't exist.”

She wrapped her arms around his waist, as if she was looking for some comfort. “I didn't believe it, and I didn't give up. Do you know why my studio is called Song Searching Studio? It's because I wanted to search for you, my Dear Brother.”

“Dear Brother, ever since I saw you that year and was saved by you, in my heart, there was only one person I want to be with, and that's you.”

Zhan Haoze looked at the sincerity in her eyes and reached out to wipe away the tears at the corner of her eyes. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead.

“I know.”

“If you knew, why didn't you come to me?”

“I wanted you to be happy.”

“If it weren't for you, my happiness would be lessened.”

She had family, friends, and her own career. She could also live a good life, but her happiness would be missing a piece.

That piece of happiness was something only he could give her.

“Who told you to take away my first kiss? Who told you to appear in my life? So, you have to be responsible.”

“Okay.” Zhan Haoze nodded. “From now on, your life will be my responsibility.”

Shi Mengwan smiled. She buried her face into his chest and rubbed it gently. “Dear Brother.”

“Yes.”

“Dear Brother.”

“Yes.”

“Dear Brother.”

Shi Mengwan kept feeling that it was unreal. This made her call him Dear Brother continuously.

Zhan Haoze couldn't help but lower his head and give her a deep kiss.

Shi Mengwan was very active in pandering, but she reacted soon after. She took a step back and looked at the tombstone at the side in embarrassment.

“It's okay. Mom and Dad will like you.”

Zhan Haoze seemed to know what she was thinking, and his voice was a bit teasing.

This was the first time she had seen Zhan Haoze so relaxed and casual. She bit her lip and felt a bit nervous.

“Is your problem solved?”

“It's all solved.”

With Zhan Kun's death, the fall of the Zhan family was inevitable. Of course, before the fall of the Zhan family, he had already broken the Zhan family's business into pieces, then broken them into pieces and reassembled them.

During those few months, he only slept for three hours every day. After his operation, the current Zhan family was a brand new Zhan family without Zhan Kun.

All of Zhan Kun's Zhan family no longer existed. The new Zhan family was a brand new business kingdom that he had single-handedly integrated.

Shi Mengwan nodded. “Dear Brother, we'll be together forever, right?”

“En.”

“That's great.” Shi Mengwan hugged Zhan Haoze again. “From now on, I'll call you Dear Brother, okay?”

“Okay.”

“Dear Brother.”

“En.”

“Dear Brother.”

“En.”

“I love you.”

“Me too.”

“Dear Brother.” Shi Mengwan suddenly raised her head to look at him with an attentive expression. “What my mom said last time was a lie to you. My mom wouldn't want me to take in a son-in-law.”

“I know.”

Father Shi had already said that there was no need for Shi Mengwan to make any sacrifices. It didn't matter who she married, as long as she was happy.

“You have very good parents.”

“You too.”

Shi Mengwan held his hand tightly and looked at the three tombstones. “Dear Brother. Believe me, your parents definitely want you to live well.”

They didn't want him to take revenge. Even though he had succeeded, he believed that all the parents in this world only wanted their children to grow up safely.

“Yes.”

“I know.” Zhan Haoze held her hand tightly. “Let's go. Let's go down the mountain.”

He turned around and looked at the tombstones. In the end, he bowed. When he raised his head again, there was a faint smile on his face.

He appeared bright and sunny. It was completely different from his usual gloomy aura.

Dad, Mom, don't worry. I'll live well. For myself, for you guys, and for Wanwan.

“Then, goodbye, Aunt and Uncle.”

Shi Mengwan also bowed, but the way she addressed them drew Zhan Haoze's objection.

“You should call them Dad and Mom too.”

Shi Mengwan blinked, as if she was a little embarrassed. In the end, she obeyed.

“Dad, Mom, sister, Goodbye. Next time, Haoze and I will come and visit you all.”

Zhan Haoze smiled, held Shi Mengwan's hand, and they left together.

“Wanwan.”

When they were going down the mountain, Zhan Haoze suddenly called Shi Mengwan's name.

“En?”

“I founded XM Company in Lin City. XM is just an abbreviation, but in Chinese, it means to dream, to Miss Mengwan.”

Shi Mengwan was stunned. She turned around to look at him with a flash of surprise in her eyes. “Dear Brother?”

“Thank you, Wanwan.”

Zhan Haoze stopped and looked at her. “Thank you for waiting for me.”

Without her, he could still continue his revenge. He could continue living his life, but at the same time, his happiness would be lessened.

Without Shi Mengwan, his life wouldn't be so perfect.

However, Zhan Haoze didn't expect that other than perfect, it could be even more perfect.

He and Shi Mengwan's wedding was scheduled for October. They parted in October, so they chose to get married in October.

After the wedding, they were supposed to go on a honeymoon, but they didn't expect that as soon as the wedding ended, Shi Mengwan vomited uncontrollably.

Zhan Haoze, who was nervous, called the doctor to check on Shi Mengwan's body. Only then did he realize that she was already more than two months pregnant. Because she had been busy with the wedding and the matters at the studio, she didn't even know.

Because of the severe morning sickness reaction, Zhan Haoze and she naturally couldn't go on their honeymoon.

Seven months later, Shi Mengwan gave birth to a very cute baby girl.

Zhan Haoze had always wanted a daughter, and now his wish had finally come true.

He thought that his life was truly perfect now.
