Huo Jingcheng ate very slowly. He chewed slowly without saying a word or raising his eyes. He just lowered his head and ate the fish in front of him.

Zhu Jin did not rush, but instead moved the dishes in the direction of the other party.

Huo Jingcheng put the chopsticks on the chopstick holder.

Zhu Jin made a move and said, "Don't you like it?"

"No." Huo Jingcheng replied seriously, "It tastes very good, like home."

"My mother used to make good fish." Huo Jingcheng's tone was rare, with a hint of nostalgia, "Since her death, I haven't eaten such delicious fish for a long time."

Zhu Jin was stunned. She didn't expect that she had made a mistake and the dish she cooked just suited Huo Jingcheng's appetite.

She had never seen Huo Jingcheng like this before.

Even though he was lying motionless on the bed before, Huo Jingcheng exuded an aura that kept strangers away, full of coercion, and made people afraid to look up.

Only now, sadness seemed to linger around him in strands.

Mr. Huo, who is well-known in Beijing circles, seems a bit lonely at this moment.

Zhu Jin felt a pain as subtle as a needle prick in his heart.

"If you like it, I will do it for you in the future." Zhu Jin said.

It wasn't that she wanted to please Huo Jingcheng, it was just that she couldn't see the usually high-spirited man now looking so pitiful.

"I have to believe what you said." Huo Jingcheng said.

"Okay."

The two looked at each other and smiled, but they didn't say anything more, and the sadness that had been lingering between them dissipated completely.

After eating, Huo Jingcheng and Zhu Jin had no intention of cleaning. They simply put the dishes and chopsticks in the sink and waited for the housekeeping aunt to come and clean them in the afternoon.

"Are you free tomorrow?" Huo Jingcheng called to Zhu Jin.

Zhu Jin looked back in confusion, "Yes, isn't it a holiday tomorrow? What's wrong?"

"If you have a free day tomorrow, I will take you to Smith's jewelry exhibition." Huo Jingcheng said.

His tone was calm, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

Zhu Jin was stunned on the spot.

After blinking his eyes, a long time passed before Zhu Jin came back to his senses.

There was an unprecedented brightness in those eyes, and they were instantly filled with smiles.

"Huo Jingcheng, are you telling the truth?"

Seeing her look like this, the man couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly with a smile, "Huh? What should you shout?"

"Husband, husband!" Zhu Jin's mind was spinning rapidly. She held her arm, "So, is what you said true? Can we attend Mr. Smith's private exhibition tomorrow?"

"Do you think I would deceive you about this?" Huo Jingcheng asked.

Zhu Jin's head shook rapidly.

Huo Jingcheng raised his hand and poked the person in the head, "Then you still ask?"

"Husband is the best!" Zhu Jin leaned over and gave the person a quick kiss on the face.

There is a moist and soft feeling on the face.

Huo Jingcheng's eyes darkened.

If something hadn't happened in the morning, he would have been reluctant to let the other person go.

"Husband, you are busy first. I am also going upstairs to do some work." Zhu Jin waved to people with a smile.

Huo Jingcheng watched the other party go upstairs and then came to the door in a wheelchair.

Assistant Chen, who had been waiting at the door early, had his head lowered, looking at his nose, his nose and his mouth, and his mouth and his heart.

The way my wife gets along with my second master is really beyond my expectation.

Assistant Chen walked to the wheelchair and pushed it.

"Second Master." Assistant Chen asked, "Should we go to the company first or..."

Huo Jingcheng raised his hand to stop what he had not finished, and gave an answer that Assistant Chen didn't expect.

"Go to the hospital."

Assistant Chen was startled and then reacted quickly.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Assistant Chen asked worriedly.

"No."

"Then this is..."

Huo Jingcheng tapped the handle of the wheelchair a few times, "No, I want to repair the scars on my face and leg injuries."

Assistant Chen was stunned by these words.

"what?"

But aren't these all Huo Jingcheng's pretense?

Even if you go to the hospital, the doctor can't do anything.

The next second, an idea flashed through Assistant Chen's mind, and he captured it instantly.

"Second Master, are you planning to remove the scar?"

"Ah."

Huo Jingcheng's fingertips gently rubbed the scar on his face. Although it was attached, he still paid a high price to customize it in order to be realistic, so even when he touched it, it felt extremely realistic, as if he really had a scar on his face.

"you……"

Assistant Chen originally wanted to ask Huo Jingcheng why he suddenly changed his mind.

But then I figured it out again.

Now there is no other thing that can make my second master change his mind except the smell of living in this villa.

"Then the morning meeting will be moved to the afternoon?"

"Ah."

……

That night, when Huo Jingcheng came back, Zhu Jin had already washed herself, sitting on the bed and reading the jewelry magazine in her hand.

"You're back." Zhu Jin got out of bed.

"Ah."

"I went to the hospital today."

Huo Jingcheng's words made Zhu Jin's heart skip a beat.

"Hospital?"

"Are you OK?"

Zhu Jin glanced up and down, his eyes full of worry.

Huo Jingcheng pursed his thin lips and shook his head, "It's okay."

Zhu Jin was obviously relieved.

"Why did you go to the hospital?" she asked casually.

"..."

Huo Jingcheng pursed his lips and said, "Look at me."

Zhu Jin turned around to look at the person, then turned back to continue busy with his own business, "It's nothing different."

Huo Jingcheng:......

"Look again."

Zhu Jin turned around, squatted down, and looked at the other person's face carefully.

"Hey, the scar on your face seems to be lighter than before." Zhu Jin's eyes were full of surprise. She held Huo Jingcheng's face in her hands, "Is your face almost healed?"

"Ah."

A smile flashed across Huo Jingcheng's lips, but he still maintained a calm expression on his face.

"I'm going for a review today," Huo Jingcheng said. "The doctor said that my scar healed quickly, and maybe I can recover as before in the future."

Zhu Jin looked at it again and again carefully.

"Well, it has indeed faded a lot. Take your time." Zhu Jin was worried that the other party was eager for success, so he comforted him, "It's okay. No matter whether the scar on your face has been repaired or not, you are still my husband."

This time, Huo Jingcheng couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

He clenched his fist and coughed lightly, "Yeah. I'll go to the bathroom to wash up first. You can go back and continue reading."

"it is good."

Zhu Jin pushed him to the bathroom before turning back to the bed.

That night, Zhu Jin didn't know why Huo Jingcheng had so much energy after returning home after being busy outside all day.

She hugged the other person's body with her hands and let him ride on her body.

Under the moonlight, the body on the bed seemed to be rolling like a wave of sea water.

"Go to sleep, I'll call you tomorrow." Huo Jingcheng's kiss fell on Zhu Jin's forehead.

After receiving the assurance, the woman closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep. She couldn't even lift her arms, and she had no brain to remember what the other party said. She only knew that this was a guarantee that was enough to reassure her.
