Looking up at the tall, slender, and strikingly handsome man before her, Wen Ci drooled. "Were you just passing by?" The man replied coldly, "Your husband." Wen Ci's eyes widened.

Just as Wen Ci was about to speak— Huo Jingyuan appeared at the doorway in casual clothes, his expression cold. The doctor tugged at Wen Ci's sleeve and whispered, "It's him! The Living Yama!" Wen Ci proactively walked to his side. "What are you doing here?" Huo Jingyuan replied unhurriedly, "Picking you up to go home."
