Qiao Shinian didn't expect Huo's mother to say this to her suddenly. She comforted, "Don't be sad, aunt. Yushan is well taken care of by you now."

Mother Huo shook her head, with a hint of guilt in her bitter voice, "If it hadn't been for the unexpected premature birth, Yushan would have been very healthy. No matter how much I take care of her, I can't make up for it."

Although Huo's mother didn't say anything about the accident, Qiao Shinian guessed from her tone that the matter was related to Huo's father.

Otherwise, Huo's mother would not have chosen to take Huo Yushan abroad alone.

It's just that it's not easy for her to pry into these private matters.

"Shi Nian, Yushan's father asked us to move back to Huoyuan. I won't force you to go to Huoyuan. I have to worry about the incense. I will take Yushan to see you when you are free." Mother way.

Huo Yuan Qiao Shinian really didn't plan to go.

But Huo's mother doesn't have to move back. Grandma Huo has said that even if Huo's mother wants to divorce, she will support it.

Qiao Shinian couldn't help but said, "Auntie, if you don't want to, Dong Huo can't force you, right?"

Huo's mother heard what Qiao Shinian meant. She smiled lightly and said, "I can't explain the past grudges in a sentence or two. Yushan's condition has improved after returning to China, and she is willing to cooperate with the doctor. I should not go to the Y again." country."

"Now that I have returned to China, I am still Mrs. Huo, and I still have to maintain some superficial relationships."

After hearing this, Qiao Shinian didn't ask any more questions.

"Shi Nian, Yan Ci did not agree to the marriage with the Li family. This is his father's wish."

Mother Huo said, "Dad Yanci is used to giving orders and does not tolerate resistance. If what he just said made you feel uncomfortable, I apologize to you on his behalf."

"I'm not feeling uncomfortable."

Qiao Shinian said calmly, "I think the marriage between Huo Yanci and the Li family is quite good. Miss Li, you have also seen that she has a good family background and a soft personality, so she is more suitable to be the Huo family's daughter-in-law than me."

"Yan Ci?"

As soon as Qiao Shinian finished speaking, Huo's mother called to the door.

Qiao Shinian turned his head and saw Huo Yanci standing at the door of the music room.

He was dressed slightly differently than usual today. A smoky gray suit made him look a little less cold and more elegant.

There is no burning anxiety or embarrassment.

He must have heard what she and Huo's mother said. Huo Yanci's dark eyes were so deep that it was difficult to discern the emotions inside.

"Are you looking for Shi Nian?"

Huo's mother supported the sleepy Huo Yushan, "You guys chat, I'll take Yushan back to her room to rest."

After Huo's mother left with Huo Yushan, only Qiao Shinian and Huo Yanci were left in the music room.

None of them spoke, and there was an inexplicable embarrassment in the air.

"Why are you here?" Qiao Shinian spoke first.

Huo Yanci replied, "Grandma notified me that dad mentioned the marriage again, and you are here too."

Huo Yanci's eyes were still dark, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Qiao Shinian said, "I knew about this last time, and I also expressed my intention. There is no need for you to rush over."

Huo Yanci naturally remembered Qiao Shinian's answer.

His dark eyes looked at Qiao Shinian for a long time, but he changed the subject, "Nian Nian, do you like this music room?"

Qiao Shi Nianhuan glanced at it and said truthfully: "It's very good, but if it's for me, it's completely unnecessary and I don't need it."

Huo Yanci said slowly, "I never asked you about your dreams and preferences before, nor did I get to know you seriously. It's all my fault. I just want to make up for some mistakes."

Hearing this, Qiao Shinian couldn't help laughing at himself, "Thank you, but I don't need your compensation."

Huo Yanci looked a little disappointed, "Nian Nian, how can you forgive me?"

He tried not to appear in front of Qiao Shinian because he was afraid of making her unhappy, but Qiao Shinian saw that he was still so cold and devoid of warmth.

Qiao Shinian had already discussed similar issues with Huo Yanci several times. She didn't want to discuss it with him anymore, "It's getting late, I'll go back first."

Huo Yan said, "I'll give it to you."

"It's just a way, I want to go back too." Fearing that Qiao Shinian would disagree, Huo Yanci gave another reason.

Qiao Shinian didn't drive here, Huo's mother sent a driver to pick her up.

Even if she rejects Huo Yanci, he will probably just wait for her in his car like last time.

Qiao Shinian walked downstairs without making a sound.

There was no trace of Father Huo in the living room, and Grandma Huo also went to the Buddhist hall.

Qiao Shinian went in, greeted her grandma, and walked outside.

The night wind blew, and before Qiao Shinian felt the chill, he had a warm coat on his body.

Smelling the faint scent of cedar, Qiao Shinian wanted to refuse, but Huo Yanci walked towards the car with long legs.

Huo Yanci's driver is already waiting.

Seeing her, the driver opened the back door and thanked her, "Miss Qiao, thank you for taking Mr. Huo with you last time."

Qiao Shinian forced a smile, stuffed his coat back to Huo Yanci, and planned to bypass the front of the car and walk to the passenger seat.

As a result, she walked too fast, didn't notice the pebble in front of her, and slipped on her foot.

"Hiss!" Qiao Shinian cried out in pain and fell to the ground.

"Miss Qiao, are you okay?"

When the driver exclaimed, Qiao Shinian felt a gust of wind coming, and then her body lightened up, and her whole body was picked up by two strong arms.

Looking up at Huo Yanci with a calm expression, Qiao Shinian hurriedly said, "I'm fine, put me down!"

But Huo Yanci turned a deaf ear and directly carried her into the back row.

"Go to the hospital." Huo Yanci told the driver.

"There's no need to go to the hospital. I'll just go back and find medicinal oil and rub it in!" Qiao Shinian refused.

Huo Yanci ignored her words, picked up her feet and put them on his lap.

Qiao Shinian wanted to withdraw, but was held down by Huo Yanci.

He took off her shoes and pulled her white socks down to her ankles.

As expected, the joints of her ankles were red and painful when touched.

"It's probably a twist. Just bear with it." Huo Yanci's tone was filled with rare tenderness.

Qiao Shinian's feet were held by Huo Yanci's big palms. The warmth of his palms traveled along the skin of his feet, making Qiao Shinian feel inexplicably uncomfortable.

"Let go of my feet. It's uncomfortable for me to sit like this." Qiao Shinian said.

Huo Yanci glanced at her for a few times, then gently put her foot down.

The car became quiet, and Qiao Shinian turned to look at the scenery outside the window.

"You and Song Qingchuan often eat together?" Huo Yanci asked.

Knowing that Huo Yanci was talking about what happened at noon yesterday, Qiao Shinian explained briefly, "Song Man worked with me, and Song Qingchuan came over to see her, and we took the opportunity to have dinner together."

Huo Yanci pursed his thin lips and said, "Don't get too close to him unless necessary."

Huo Yanci had reminded her before that Qiao Shinian didn't want to have too much contact with Song Qingchuan, so he nodded.

Soon after, the driver drove the car to a hospital.

Huo Yanci got out of the car first and extended his hand to Qiao Shinian, indicating to help her.

Qiao Shinian ignored it and got out of the car carefully.

She was planning to jump into the hospital on one leg, but Huo Yanci directly hugged her sideways!
