Chapter 900: A Solemn Promise
Huo Qihan had many properties under his name, but he had spent a lot of money to maintain his high expenses after being chased out of the Huo Corporation.
Moreover, in this sensitive period, hiding in his own house was tantamount to walking into a trap.
However, most people like them would leave themselves a few escape routes just in case.
Huo Qihan first brought Xue Beilei to a small two-story house with a courtyard in the suburbs that he had specially transferred to her after seeing that she was pregnant.
However, less than a day after they settled down, they heard the sound of a police car from afar that night. They were so frightened that they got up overnight, picked up their things, and ran.
After that, the two of them no longer dared to casually run towards the properties under their names. They could only hide and look for houses to rent, running towards those dilapidated slums.
They thought that as long as they hid in a place where dragons and snakes mingled, the police would not be able to find them in the short term.
As a result, they were discovered soon after they arrived.
Fleeing, being discovered, escaping again, being discovered again. If this happened a few times, Huo Qihan’s emotions were already on the verge of collapse.
“Damn it, why are these people like dogskin plaster? I can’t even tear them off!” When he heard the familiar long cry again, Huo Qihan rushed out of the bathroom without even putting on his pants. His face was filled with hostility, and he wished he could rush out and fight.
It was impossible to fight. Xue Beilei seemed to be used to such torture. She quickly packed his things and grabbed Huo Qihan’s hand. “Don’t be rash. As long as we’re alive, there’s hope. If you’re caught by them now, we’ll really have no hope.”
Huo Qihan’s expression improved slightly after being persuaded by her. He carried Xue Beilei and left the temporary rented hut before anyone came over.
The two of them had run out in the middle of the night without even a place to stay.
They were usually afraid to go to hotels that were larger and safer. This was because they had to use their IDs to get a room.
In the end, in order not to end up on the streets, they had no choice but to enter a particularly simple black hotel.
Not only had it cost a fortune, but the house was especially simple. The walls were yellowed, the curtains old. Even the blanket they were going to cover tonight smelled damp and rotten.
Huo Qihan had never suffered like this before. As soon as he entered the room, his face darkened.
Xue Beilei saw that his expression was ugly and knew that he was angry. She sighed softly and comforted him. “The conditions here are a little bad. It’s a critical period. Let’s endure it. After this hurdle is over, we will slowly recover in the future.”
Huo Qihan looked at the woman who had been by his side for the past few days. His originally angry and indignant heart could not help but soften.
He reached out and pulled her into his arms. “It’s been hard on you,” he said, feeling touched.
Xue Beilei buried himself in his arms and replied in a muffled voice, “No, as long as I can be with you, these are nothing.”
Huo Qihan was even more touched when he heard this. Who would have thought that the head of the Huo Corporation, who was high-spirited two years ago, would not only lose his company two years later and turn against his wife and children, but even his business partners who usually called him brother and flattered him would also kick him while he was down and reject him?
The only person who stayed by his side and was devoted to him was this little woman who kept him on a whim.
Huo Qihan was both disappointed and resentful. He promised Xue Beilei solemnly, “I promise that as long as we get through this, I’ll marry you. I’ll only treat you well in this life.”
