Chapter 222: Pulse Warmth Flow Heart
"Confused!" Mrs. Huo reprimanded, "There are more women who want to marry into the Huo family as daughters-in-law, can it be that cats and dogs can do it?" Don't you know what the situation of the Fang family is? What good daughters can a family like that teach? β
Huo Lingxiao didn't want to say anything, they decided that Fang Ruoning was a scheming and money-worshipping girl with other means, they looked down on the Fang family from the bottom of their bones, these concepts were deep-rooted and could not be solved.
In the silence of the room, Huo Lingxiao moved, turned around without saying a word, and walked out.
"Ling Xiao!"
"Big brother!"
Everyone stayed, and Mrs. Huo chased forward again, and persuaded in a low voice: "Grandpa will come back for a few days during the New Year, no matter how unhappy you are, you have to have a meal before leaving." You have always been steady, don't mess up for a woman and hurt your grandfather's heart. β
Huo Zhengzhao, who had been silent, also spoke at this time, "It's all back, eat and leave!" β
A junior picked up the sunken wooden cane and handed it over, the old lady took it, and said hatefully: "Let him go!" You have left people behind, and the heart is not here, what's the use?! β
Huo Lingxiao listened to his mother's words, in the end, he was soft-hearted, and his strict tutor since childhood also told him that today's words and deeds were definitely inappropriate, so he turned around again, bowed to Mrs. Huo across most of the living room, and said lightly: "Grandpa, when you are angry, I will come back and explain to you well." β
The words fell, but he still turned around and left neatly.
Bentley Mulsanne gave a neat and clean flick of his tail and walked away.
Mrs. Huo stood on the steps, weeping, and beside her, the female family members hugged her and whispered comfort.
"Hey...... If I knew this was the case, I might as well let him remain single-"
In the cold atmosphere of the room, Huo Ziqian walked over, stood in front of Old Lady Huo, and said crisply: "Grandpa, Brother Yunxuan is my idol, and Aunt Fang, she is a good person...... She would hold me like a mother and tell me and Brother Yunxuan stories! β
Huo Ziqian, who was more than three years old, was articulate, and after quietly watching the whole war, he suddenly said these words unexpectedly.
The elders and adults in the audience were all stunned and looked at each other.
*
The car returned to the city, but Huo Lingxiao couldn't go to the hospital. If he went back so early, Fang Ruoning would definitely see the clues.
I made a phone call and went out, and as soon as I got through, I teased: "I thought you had saved the beauty, and you completely forgot about your brother!" β
There were overwhelming news reports about the flight in distress and forced landing, and Ji Nanchen knew that Fa Xiao was also on that flight, so he called to care. However, after returning to China, the two have not had much contact. Ji Nanchen guessed that the two of them were together, thinking that Fa Xiao was drunk and gentle, and forgot about brotherhood.
Huo Lingxiao's face was gloomy, and he said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, come out and drink." β
"What's the matter? Won't they quarrel again? Or did it not fit at all? Ji Nanchen heard the clue, and the smile on his face stopped suddenly.
"It has nothing to do with her, let's talk about it when I come out."
On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, Ji Nanchen was still visiting relatives and friends, but after answering the phone, he had to get up and explain to the elders at a table, and took the initiative to have a drink, before hurriedly asking the driver to drive away.
When he arrived at the clubhouse, Huo Lingxiao had already drunk alone.
The spacious and bright room was deserted and quiet, Ji Nanchen walked over, looked surprised and confused, and teased: "What's the matter?" What's wrong? Do you want to make it so bleak during the Chinese New Year? Want to drink and how many more people should I call? β
"No need." Huo Lingxiao frowned and vetoed, tilted his head, and swallowed half a glass of wine into his throat.
Ji Nanchen frowned, and when he saw that he was about to pour wine again, he hurriedly stopped: "You have a bad stomach, do you want to go to the hospital again after drinking like this?" β
The wine glass was asided, Huo Lingxiao threw his heavy and tired body into the soft and expensive imported sofa, tilted his head and closed his eyes, his handsome and resolute facial features were glowing helplessly and haggard under the light, and he was silent for a while before his thin lips opened lightly: "I just went home, the old lady came back, I thought that he would agree to me being with Fang Ruoning, but who knows-the old man didn't know what slander he heard, and before I could open his mouth, he convicted the woman of several major crimes - scheming, no tutor, no etiquette, and a bad family background......"
As he spoke, the man raised his head, and the corners of his mouth turned into a cold and sneering smile, "My last bit of hope has also been dashed, I'm afraid it is...... Unless I'm disconnected from my family, it's no good. β
Ji Nanchen's face changed, and he instantly became solemn, "How can this be?" You didn't explain? β
Huo Lingxiao shook his head, "It's useless, I understand the old man's temper, not to mention that he is angry, I say a lot of mistakes." β
Ji Nanchen nodded, understood, sighed heavily, patted his palm on his shoulder, and pressed it hard.
Without saying a word, he also took out a wine glass, and brought a wine bottle in the other hand, both of which were full: "Come, have a drink with you, Happy New Year." β
Huo Lingxiao smiled bitterly, this New Year, where is there any happiness at all.
Now, I miss the few days in Switzerland, although Fang Ruoning also ignores him, but he is okay.
Now when I come back, a bunch of troublesome problems come to my face.
The wine glass was put down, Ji Nanchen turned his head to look at him, and thought about a move: "Do you wait for the old man to be angry, and take their mother and son to meet the old man in a few days?" Maybe when I saw me, the old man's concept changed. β
Huo Lingxiao's face was gloomy and he shook his head, "Not for the time being." β
"Why?"
Fa Xiao didn't know about this yet, so it seems that the news that came out on the Internet before has not spread widely, and Li Quan's side has dealt with it thoroughly, which can be regarded as containment.
"Ruoning is hospitalized."
"Hospitalized?" Ji Nanchen was taken aback, "What's the matter?" Injured on the plane? Didn't you say you were all okay that day? β
"It's worse than an injury." Thinking of the frightening scene in the airport that day, he still has palpitations, "As soon as the plane landed that day, before we left the airport, she fainted in the bathroom, the ectopic pregnancy ruptured and hemorrhaged, and she was in shock - if the ambulance hadn't arrived in time, she rushed all the way to the hospital for rescue, I'm afraid that everyone would have been gone." β
Ji Nanchen's whole face was stunned in horror.
"I lost more than 3,000 ml of blood, barely saved my life, and stayed in the ICU for one night, was in a coma for half a day and a night, and only woke up this morning."
Ji Nanchen's shock continued, and after a while, he said in disbelief: "Ectopic pregnancy? Child...... Is it yours? β
Huo Lingxiao glanced at him fiercely, this is not nonsense?!
There is also a reason why Ji Nanchen asked like this, the two have broken up for so long, how can they get an ectopic pregnancy again, this must be confusing. It seems that during the breakup, the two still had dealings, and this hand was not clean.
"How's that guy doing? You're not in the hospital at this time, who will take care of you? β
"The person is out of danger, it's okay, it's just that he has to be hospitalized for a few days, and he has to recuperate for a few months after being discharged from the hospital."
Ji Nanchen imagined the danger of that scene, and also felt cold, and patted his brother's shoulder again: "I don't see you say anything when there is such a big event, so I can accompany you!" β
"It happened so suddenly, I didn't even react at the time."
"Understood, understood!" Knowing this, Ji Nanchen took his cup away again, "In that case, you better drink less, and don't you have to go back to the hospital to take care of her later?" Don't get drunk and let people worry about you. β
Huo Lingxiao didn't speak, just leaned back on the sofa, his face heavy.
"You don't know about this at home, do you?"
Huo Lingxiao said: "Ling Yuan knows that it was Ling Yuan who went to pick up the plane yesterday. β
"If this happens, you will definitely be even more difficult to separate from others, this knot can be resolved!"
Huo Lingxiao shrugged his shoulders as if he was smiling, he had been thinking about how to resolve it, but the knot became deeper and deeper.
Grandpa said that he wanted to meet people, but he didn't explain the truth, and he was worried about extraneous complications.
Her family has already disapproved of her, and if they know that she had an ectopic pregnancy surgery to remove one of her fallopian tubes, it will be difficult to get pregnant in the future, and I am afraid it will become a stain again.
Although this "stain" is not a problem in his opinion, in the eyes of his family, he doesn't know what it will be.
Therefore, Ruoning's hospitalization can only be concealed temporarily.
*
When Huo Lingxiao returned to the ward, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.
There was a companion bed in the VIP ward, and Fang Yunxuan refused to go back to the villa, so he had to sleep on the companion bed.
Fang Ruoning also slept, but her abdomen still had a dull pain, and she was uncomfortable after lying down for a long time, and she didn't sleep well after tossing and turning.
Faintly, she felt that the door of the ward was pushed open, and a tall figure slowly walked towards her, her consciousness was ignorant and blurred, she couldn't distinguish between dream and reality, until the strong smell of alcohol invaded her nose, and the sofa chair next to her made a rustling sound, and her body suddenly shook slightly, and she woke up from her dream.
"Huo Lingxiao?" Her mind cleared instantly, and she recognized the person sitting down just by her dim figure, and exhaled.
Huo Lingxiao was also taken aback when he saw her open her eyes, his deep voice was dyed with wine, with a little hoarseness, "Woke you up?" β
The atmosphere was awkward, and she said in a low voice, "No...... I haven't slept much yet...... "After a pause, he added, "I said don't come here too late, I'm fine." β
After returning to China, there was no time to reverse the jet lag, he must have worked hard these days, and he drank again, so there was really no need to go back and forth.
Fang Ruoning also thought that he was going back to eat a family banquet to drink.
"Xuanxuan is also here, I don't worry, in case something happens, you can't take care of it."
The lights in the room were not turned on, but the lights outside the window and in the corridor were dimmed in a little, and the two of them adapted to the darkness, and could see each other's silhouettes clearly.
Fang Ruoning heard that he cared about himself between the lines, and his heart was also soft, and he persuaded him after a deep groan: "It's not early, you can go to sleep quickly, you can only squeeze with Xuan Xuan." β
Huo Lingxiao leaned forward, and lay on the edge of the bed childishly, his voice dyed with alcohol was like a dream, and he muttered, "But...... I want to squeeze ...... with you."
Fang Ruoning was stunned for a moment, and in the darkness, a heat wave swept in instantly, and his whole face burned.
Don't say that this bed is too small, just say that she looks now, she is still recovering from surgery, and she can't mess around!
The two had been separated for so long, huddled together, and he couldn't hold back anything in case of dry wood and fire......
Fang Ruoning's nervous tongue was knotted, and she didn't know what to say for a long time, seeing that this person was lying on her stomach and there was no movement, she was embarrassed and silent for a while, so she had to push his arm: "Hey...... Huo Lingxiao, don't make trouble, go to sleep on the bed next to you. β
"No, I'm just lying on my stomach...... Very good. In the darkness, the man grabbed her hand and held it, and pulled it in front of him, almost under his face, and gently coaxed, "You can sleep too, leave me alone." β
Fang Ruoning: "......"
How can she sleep in this position?
He pulled a hand under her head, and half of her body was pulled.
What a speechlessness!
If you drink too much, you can sleep well at home, you have to come here to make trouble! It's not as worrying as even a three-year-old child!
"Huo Lingxiao, don't be like this, go to bed and lie down and sleep."
"Don't want to move ......"
"Huo Lingxiao! Don't make a fuss! Do you want me to get up and help you through? β
Her voice became heavier, and the hand he held was also withdrawn, Huo Lingxiao's heart was slightly disappointed, and he sat up with his tired body.
In the dark, the two looked at each other, and they could only see the faint light in each other's eyes, but it was that light that illuminated each other's hearts little by little.
Fang Ruoning's heart beat faster suddenly, she looked away, and said in a low voice: "Leave it to you, I'm sleepy." β
The man approached again, with the smell of intoxicating wine, the tip of his nose almost touched her cheek, Fang Ruoning was startled, the hairs on his body stood up instantly, his body instinctively tensed, and the wound in his abdomen hurt, and he was angry: "What are you doing?" If you don't sleep, you go, don't bother me! β
"Kiss one, I can't squeeze with you, it's okay to kiss one."
Flustered, Fang Ruoning didn't see his expression clearly, but when he heard this, he burned his cochlea.
Is this drunken madness or seriousness?
Before she could respond, or figure it out, the shadow had quickly approached and kissed her on the lips.
The light was so dim, he could accurately catch her lips, Fang Ruoning felt that he was not drunk at all, and he deliberately took advantage of it by drinking!
Fortunately, he was talkative, and after kissing him, he got up and left, and walked to the companion bed next to him.
Fang Ruoning saw him lying down, and said "good night" gently, and the chaotic heartbeat didn't calm down for a while.
The next day, when the doctor came to check on the ward, the family of three was still sleeping soundly.
Fang Ruoning was glad that someone didn't squeeze with her last night, otherwise how would she face the doctors and nurses at this time.
Although the movement was small, the big and small on the escort bed still woke up.
As soon as Mr. Huo, who paid great attention to personal hygiene, woke up and found that he had slept with his clothes without washing last night, his thick eyebrows were furrowed, and he immediately entered the bathroom.
Fang Yunxuan sat up ignorantly, rubbed his eyes, probably found that there was nothing wrong, and lay down again.
The man came out quickly, and after washing, he looked refreshed, and although his shirt was a little wrinkled, it still did not change his handsome and noble appearance.
Sent the doctor out, inquired about the condition by the way, and learned that everything was recovering normally, so he came back with peace of mind.
Fang Ruoning thought of the kiss last night, and he didn't know if this person remembered it, and when he saw him come back, he immediately retracted his gaze in embarrassment.
Huo Lingxiao didn't seem to remember anything, or maybe a kiss was nothing to him at all.
Walking back to the bed as usual, his handsome eyebrows and eyes were still with crystal droplets, and he asked gently, "What do you want to eat in the morning?" I asked Li Quan to order food. β
Her eyes still didn't know where to fall, and she said lightly: "Whatever, just be light." β
"yes, got it."
She lifted the quilt and wanted to get up, but Huo Lingxiao immediately approached to help her. On the way to the bathroom, this person was still diligently supporting, which made Fang Ruoning's mind even more confused.
"I can do it myself, don't treat me as a waste." At the bathroom door, the woman lifted his hand and closed the door panel after saying this.
Outside, the tall man didn't know what to think, and his good-looking thin lips were lightly and elegantly hooked.
*
Fang's villa.
Years ago, Fang Bingguo had been discharged from the hospital and went home. His body did not fully recover, but he stayed in the hospital for too long, he was tired of it, and he thought that it would be unlucky to live in the hospital during the Chinese New Year, so he insisted on being discharged from the hospital to recuperate at home.
Xu Meihui has been doing it for a while, and now she is being crushed by Fang Ruoning, and now she is honest and peaceful.
There are servants and nurses at home, Fang Bingguo basically doesn't need her to take care of her, she takes her three-year-old son to hang out and play every day, which is still the life of Mrs. Kuo before.
Early in the morning, Xu Meili came, the sisters hid in the room and didn't know what they were doing, when Fang Bingguo came out in a wheelchair, he saw that the two sisters also happened to go downstairs.
"Brother-in-law, you look good today!" Xu Meili greeted with a smile, and her tone sounded weird.
Fang Bingguo now recognizes the Xu family, and treats this little sister-in-law as pleasantly as before, his eyes fell when he heard the words, and he said lukewarmly: "As long as you don't cause trouble for me, I will be in a good mood and have a good complexion." β
"Shh Xu Meili sneered, walked towards the living room, and said in a weird manner, "I used to keep saying that I relied on us, but now I treat us as a burden, right?" β
Sitting down on the sofa, Xu Meili dragged her tone more and more, and said in a low voice: "Yes...... Your good daughter is so capable now, and we are nothing compared to herβbut she is so good, how can she not show up at all during the New Year? I didn't even give you this New Year's greeting to my father. β
Speaking of this, Fang Bingguo's face was a little ashamed, and he pretended to be generous: "She has her own life, and I won't blame her if she doesn't come." β
"Oh, I don't think you know yet."
"Know what?" Fang Bingguo looked at her, his eyes showing doubts, "What's wrong with Ruoning?" β
Xu Meihui sent her son to the side to play, then sat down and said: "She went on vacation abroad, and when she came back, she almost encountered a plane crash, and she saved her life, but she didn't want to faint in the bathroom as soon as she got off the plane." With a gloating smile on her face, she deliberately continued slowly, "The rupture of the ectopic pregnancy caused massive bleeding and shock, and I was rushed to the hospital for rescue, and I don't know if I was rescued......
Fang Bingguo's face changed color in shock, his eyes looked at their faces in horror, and then said angrily: "Impossible! You must be cursing her! β
