Chapter 168

is gaze sweeping over the Republican-era buildings before him. The large courtyards felt suffocating.Remembering yesterday when he called Yanshuang, her voice was filled with sadness and disappointmen...Fu Yan assumed Huo Mingzheng had left. She was just about to reach for her phone on the bedside table to call Ji Lin when she saw the curtains being pulled open.

My hand trembled, and my phone slammed against the edge of the table with a loud bang. 。Seeing this, Cao Fang hurried forward and picked up the cell phone. 。But instead of giving it to her, he handed it to Huo Mingzheng. 。

Fu Yan's hand that had reached out clenched into a fist.

Huo Mingzheng moved away the stool where Fu Hanlin had just been sitting and sat directly beside the hospital bed. 。He cupped her chin, turning her face. "So brazen to tail someone, yet ashamed to be seen"Her complexion was pale, likely from the shock, with gauze stuck to her forehead. She looked so frail and vulnerable that Huo Mingzheng involuntarily loosened his grip. His gaze swept over her eyes 。

"If Second Brother is here to throw a rock into the well, then it's time for him to leave."

"Pays her respects with an emotionless face" 。You know exactly how to piss me off. 。"Huo Mingzheng said coldly, releasing her chin and his gaze fell on her neck." 。She lowered her hair, obscuring most of the scratches. They were barely visible, more like a deliberate attempt to draw attention than to hide them, making one want to know more. 。As his finger grazed her long hair, Fu Yan ran to the side, but she forgot about her slight concussion. Her swaying arc became wider, and she felt dizzy for a moment. 。"You're asking for it!" Huo Mingzheng's face was as cold as ice, he supported her shoulders and pulled her closer to him. 。He gently parted her long hair, revealing her smooth neck. 。The scratch on my neck isn't deep, it's about two to three centimeters long. Judging by the scab, not much blood was lost and the cut isn't very severe. 。Even so, blemishes appeared on her fair skin, startling to behold. 。She was fierce, and if it weren't for Cao Yuan's compromise, she would have been ruthless towards herself. Just from her design to get herself into danger in order to take revenge on Shen Wei, you could tell how cruel she truly was. 。He laughed angrily, his voice dripping with sarcasm, "Have you been watching too many TV dramas and novels that you've also learned to be as righteous and heroic as the characters"Fu Yan's eyes welled up with tears, her tongue pressed against her upper jaw, she pushed him away silently. 。Alas, she couldn't move Huo Mingzheng even an inch. He was like a towering mountain, motionless as he held her waist tightly. "Still causing trouble Cao Fang, go take care of the paperwork and call Qin Heng." 。After finishing his words, the other hand slipped through her hip and grasped her waist, pulling her upwards in a sideways hug. 。

Cao Fang went to do the procedures, Cao Yuan went to drive.

The temperature in Nancheng dropped tonight. As soon as Fu Yan walked out of the emergency room, she felt a strong cold wind blowing against her, and she shivered instinctively.

The next second, she was forced to press her whole body against the man's chest. The cold wind was blocked, and all she could smell was his familiar scent. 。The scorching blood flowed in my chest, the fear after a narrow escape and all sorts of mixed emotions surged up at once. 。"I want to go back to my own place" 。She sniffed. 。Cao Yuan drove the car over, Huo Mingzheng lowered his eyes to glance at the person in his arms. He was clearly exhausted, yet he was still trying hard. He said without hesitation: "Don't even mention it" 。The carriage was warm, Huo Mingzheng held the person and sat in, Cao Yuan started the car, the bodyguard's car behind stopped and waited for Cao Fang. 。Fu Yan has already given up resistance. 。She also knows that she can't do anything in her current state. She's like fish on a cutting board now, and whatever Huo Mingzheng wants to do to her is up to him. 。Except for the two years with Huo Mingzheng before, she couldn't stand his tossing and turning, often staying up late. However, her daily routine was actually quite regular, usually able to fall asleep before eleven o'clock. 。oon."The car drove out of the gated community.In the villa opposite Li Qin's, on the second floor, a room with no lights was lit.
