It was not until they reached the hospital entrance that Ling Zhao realized that he was bringing her here for a pregnancy check-up.

Ling Zhao refused to get out of the car.

[I am not pregnant, my period has just ended. ]

Huo Yixiu took out the key, opened the car door, and turned to look at the woman who was sitting still.

His eyes were calm, leaving no room for negotiation.

Ling Zhao sat there stiffly for two seconds and then got out of the car.

Unexpectedly, Huo Yixiu did not take her to the gynecology department, but to the gastroenterology department, to perform a gastroscopy on her!

Ling Zhao was scared.

She had to be on an empty stomach for a gastroscopy, so he wanted to do a colonoscopy on her as well and asked the hospital to complete the hospitalization procedures.

In her previous life, Ling Zhao had no appetite during her confinement period and became very thin, so she was forced to undergo a gastroscopy.

Like a pig waiting to be slaughtered on the chopping block, the long endoscope penetrated deep into her throat and into her abdominal cavity. She was terrified and in pain, and tears fell from her eyes.

Later, she was sent to a sanatorium and underwent several gastroscopy examinations. She realized that Fan Wenxin had deliberately asked the sanatorium to do this.

Memory awakens.

Frightened, she gave in, tugged at his sleeve, shook her head and begged: "I'll eat, there's nothing wrong with my stomach."

Huo Yixiu stared at her: "Are you really okay?"

Ling Zhao nodded vigorously.

He then gave up and cancelled the appointment.

Back in the car, Ling Zhao was still a little scared. She kept swallowing and twisting her fingers, wanting to say something, but when she saw Huo Yixiu's extremely calm face, she kept everything in her heart.

Huo Yixiu took her to a Hainan restaurant, and Ling Zhao ate a whole plate of pineapple rice and burped from the fullness.

Huo Yixiu's expression became even uglier.

Ling Zhao couldn't figure out what he was angry about.

There is so much unrest outside and he is overwhelmed. He can't bear to punish Fan Wenxin, so is he taking it out on her?

Ling Zhao felt even more aggrieved.

Huo Yixiu held the steering wheel and sat for a while before driving.

Ling Zhao was quiet, like a well-behaved kitten.

But the little kitten still couldn't bear the layers of pain. She died unhappy in her last life, was she going to suffocate to death in this life?

She wants to live, to live happily and fully herself!

When the car stopped, Ling Zhao took a deep breath and grabbed Huo Yixiu's sleeve.

Huo Yixiu put one hand on the car door and looked back at her.

Ling Zhao looked into his deep eyes, pinched his fingers and calmed down: [There is one thing I haven't told you yet. If I tell you, can you promise me one thing? ]

Huo Yixiu narrowed his eyes slightly, loosened the door lock with his fingers, and his face turned visibly colder.

He pursed his lips and waited for her to speak, without any expression, like waiting for a fish to take the bait without putting out any bait.

At this moment, Ling Zhao is also a fisherman, but there must be bait on her hook.

【It's about my mother-in-law. Maybe I can help you. 】

Huo Yixiu sneered and glanced out the window, as if he had heard something funny.

He took a pack of cigarettes from the storage compartment, tapped his fingers twice, and a cigarette popped out. He lowered his head, bit the cigarette butt and took it out, then picked up the lighter with one hand.

"Okay, you say."

The fire lit up, he lit the cigarette, took a puff of smoke, turned his head to look at her with a playful look, as if he was teasing a primary school student.

Huo Yixiu, who always appears steady and serious, has never looked at anyone with such eyes.

Ling Zhao felt humiliated by him again, bit his lip, and gestured seriously: [The money that Mrs. He spent on her nephew may be in Mrs. Min's pocket. ]

Is this important news?

At that time, she wrote the words "Is Mrs. He okay?" on the tea table and asked Mrs. Min, and Mrs. Min overreacted.

If she wanted to distance herself from the matter, she should maintain an indifferent attitude and be indifferent to anyone's words. But after she read what she wrote, she called her a psychopath and left in anger.

That was the anger that came from feeling guilty.

Ling Zhao himself had lied, and when he felt guilty, he would become emotional and overreact.

After all, this is her experience.

The man held the cigarette between two fingers. He lowered the window to get some fresh air and rested his elbow on the window. "Anything else?"

The air from the air conditioner was cool, and it made Ling Zhao feel cold on one side.

She was stunned. Isn't this enough?

Madam Xu said that it was not difficult for children from wealthy families to enter prestigious schools. If they gave the school benefits that everyone could see, then there would be no problem. But no news came out from Tianheng High School.

In other words, Mrs. He gave bribes privately and secured the internal quota.

This amount of money is much less than donating to build a library or a building, but it can satisfy the person who receives the money.

Mrs. Min organized a card game, and the only thing she did was to bring up the fact that Mrs. He wanted to reserve a spot for her nephew. She didn't say anything and told Mrs. He to ask Teacher Du directly.

Mrs. Min thought that since Mrs. Huo had entered her circle, she would be her minion, and the mere dean of teaching would definitely listen to her. In their circle, interests were shared, and those who could read her eyes would understand.

But Teacher Du had suffered a setback more than ten years ago, and valued the position that was about to be obtained even more, so he refused to agree immediately. It was not until Fan Wenxin came that things changed.

After all, it was Mrs. Min who accepted the bribe. Why not let the investigation team investigate her?

Huo Yixiu looked ahead and said slowly, "Director Min and his wife have made a lot of money over the years, relying on their status. But why are they still sitting in their seats safely?"

Ling Zhao frowned slightly.

Judging from his calm demeanor, he already knew that it was Mrs. Min who actually collected the money?

He found it out so quickly?

Ling Zhao thought for a moment: [Did you check her account? ]

It was easy for Huo Yixiu to hack into the account. But even if he did so and got the evidence, he couldn't hand it over.

Because the method he used to check the account was illegal.

To save others, you must first ensure that you are not trapped.

Ling Zhao felt that he was too naive. In front of the thousand-year-old fox, he was just a pure jasmine flower.

Huo Yixiu rubbed her hair and smiled faintly: "This matter is too difficult for you. Don't get involved in things that have nothing to do with you."

"Why not tell me what you want me to promise?"

The smile faded, and his expression became gloomy and serious again.

The dark eyes penetrated into her heart like an endoscope, seeing her clearly.

Under his pressing gaze, Ling Zhao dared not say what was in his heart.

The car was still running and he was very patient, smoking slowly and leisurely. After one cigarette, he opened the cigarette box and prepared to take the second one.

It seemed that he would not let her get off the car unless she said something.

Ling Zhao lost his temper again, gritted his teeth, and gestured: [We will stay in separate rooms like before. Don't touch me again.]

The air conditioner in the car was on, but the window was open, and the warm wind from outside blew in from his side, with a strong smell of cigarette smoke.

Ling Zhao felt suffocated, not because of the smell of smoke, but because of the oppressive feeling coming from him.

Huo Yixiu put the half-smoked cigarette back into the box and glanced at her with his dark eyes, calm, deep, and creepy.

Ling Zhao bit her lip, and her fingers suspended in the air did not fall, firmly expressing her wish.

After a while, the man sneered, and touched her cheek with his cigarette-smelling fingers, gently stroking: "Don't you have a strong desire? You try every means to make me fulfill my husband's duties. Or is there someone who can satisfy your desire?"

Ling Zhao's face turned red, and his eyes also turned red.

It's obviously him who's outside!
