m."Li Qin quietly clenched her hand.Could it be that she couldn't bear the thought of her and Azheng getting married, so she ran away with the childGiven her understanding of how Yan deals with things...He gave a slight smile, but it didn't reach his eyes, "Brother."

After ten minutes.

Cao Fang knocked on the door and came in: "Mr. Huo, the car is ready."

Ho Mingzheng was smoking by the window, slowly exhaling a puff of smoke. The wind blew it away, but the smell of tobacco still lingered in the air.

"Not going."

......

It was almost nine o'clock after the dinner.

Fu Yan received a phone call from Cao Fang before leaving.

"Ms. Fu, would you be available to speak"

Fu Yan walked to a secluded spot, "What's wrong"

Cao Fang hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Mr. Huo hasn't eaten much today. I think it would be helpful if you went to see him. If you're there, he might eat something."

"Didn't he have dinner" Fu Yan's heart clenched.

He didn't even touch anything I made.

Cao Fang's culinary skills are certified, professional level. Even Huo Mingzheng, no matter how picky he is, will eat a few bites.

He didn't touch it at all, so it wasn't that his appetite was off, it was that he was in a bad mood.

Could it be because she stood him up

Cao Fang said, "I'll be waiting for you at the right gate of the castle."

She hung up the phone and glanced back at Fu Hanlin in the crowd. She walked over, and the crowd gradually dispersed. The banquet was nearing its end.

When Fu Yan walked out of the castle, she wrapped her shawl around herself and saw that there was indeed an unassuming carriage parked on the right.

"Mr. Fu, I won't go back with your car. I have some personal matters to attend to."

Fu Hanlin followed her gaze and narrowed his eyes slightly behind his frameless glasses.

He withdrew his gaze, "Okay."

Cao Fang was unable to appear in public, so his bodyguard opened the car door for Fu Yan.

The moment she got into the car, Fu Yan hesitated and said, "Where's Li Qin"

Caofang knew her concerns, “Miss Li is never around in the evenings.”

By the time they reached the ward, the patient was mostly resting. Fu Yan took off her high heels and carried them in one hand, adjusting her skirt with the other.

"Do you need to change your clothes first" Cao Fang dared not look around.

"It's fine, I'll just make him some porridge first." I don't even know what time it is after changing clothes.

Entered the kitchen, Fu Yan immediately began washing rice and putting it in a pot, then chopping fruit.

It's bound to cause a stir.

Huo Mingzheng wasn't asleep yet, there were several cigarette butts in the ashtray, and Cao Yuan didn't dare to persuade him.

He hadn't seen Ho Mingzheng like this in many years, a strange melancholy had settled over him.

The door to the ward was only slightly ajar, and there was a clang from the kitchen.

"Go take a look." Huo Mingzheng rubbed his temples.

Cao Yuan went out, and soon Cao Fang came in, saying timidly: "Mr. Huo, it's Miss Fu."

The man's hand paused on his temples.

Fu Yan had rushed to finalize the plan and hadn't had a lunch break. She was so tired that she started yawning uncontrollably. The porridge was still simmering in the clay pot. She grabbed a stool and sat on the edge, just wanting to lean against it for a moment of rest. Unexpectedly, she fell asleep.

The kitchen door opened silently from the outside.

The gurgling sound of boiling water caught Huo Mingzheng's eye, and he immediately saw Fu Yan sleeping against the side.

She was still wearing the evening gown from the photo, but with an added shawl that covered her voluptuous curves.

Her hair, styled high, had a single strand escaping its confines. The once noble and aloof look was now touched with an unexpected girlish charm.

He walked over, his fingertip still hovering before her cheek, only to hear a soft whisper from her: "Big brother..."

The outstretched hand froze in mid-air. unfazed.When Mr. Kevin was in a bad mood, he would take it out on the estate's servants by whipping them, which seemed to soothe him.A woman's terrified and pained sobs echoed from the dimly lit room...
