m to come down for dinner.After the Lunar New Year's Eve family dinner, this was Huo Mingzheng's second time seeing Old Master Huo. Before that, someone from the manor had told him that Old Master Huo...Went downstairs, Xia took the opportunity when Fu Yan went to drive and quickly sent a WeChat message to Cao Yuan: 【We're leaving!】
That side almost responds instantly.
Um.
Xia Xia's mind flashed that cool face, quickly put away her phone, and paid for Yan to drive over. She got into the passenger seat, her heart racing to 120 beats per minute.
She thought she was putting on a brave face, but Fu Yan glanced at her and said, "Why do you look so guilty"
"Huh" Xia said innocently, "What are you talking about I'm happy for you. Everyone knows Dr. Cheng is a skilled doctor. Of course I'm happy that you're getting better. I'm just happy, there's nothing to be guilty about."
As the car drove out of the teahouse's range, Fu Yan asked abruptly, "Which friend are you"
Xia Xia's heart skipped a beat. The soul-searching stage had finally arrived.
She said, unfazed, "You don't know her. You've never met."
"Let's have dinner with your friend sometime."
The traffic light ahead is red, and the cars are slowing down.
Xia Xia didn't even think about it: "Okay."
If it really came to that, she could say her friends were busy, she was on a business trip, or she had gone back home - any excuse would do. She wouldn't be caught out.
Woohoo!
She is so clever.
Soon after Fu Yan left, a man in a suit and tie walked out from the next room. This was Cao Fang.
Cao Fang pushed open the door and Huo Mingzheng strode towards the next private room, knocking gently on the door twice before pushing it open.
"Doctor Cheng, thank you for your hard work."
Dr. Cheng rose from behind the tea table and smiled faintly, "Mr. Huo, you're too kind. It's a small matter."
He strode over, and specially had someone prepare the aged Pu-erh tea that the old gentleman liked. He personally poured a cup, "Please."
Dr. Cheng sat down again and accepted a cup of tea from Huo Mingzheng.
"How is YanYan doing"
Dr. Cheng took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and shook his head solemnly. "Ms. Fu's poison has damaged her core, making it very difficult for her to have children again in the future."
Ho Ming's teacup swayed, the scalding water splashed onto his back, sizzling and dripping onto the table.
"Mr. Huo!" Cao Fang immediately stepped forward when he saw this.
Dr. Cheng also looked at him in surprise.
He had heard about the head of the Huo family in Nancheng a few times from others. According to what he'd gathered, this young master was described as aloof, with a deep and inscrutable mind. People like that usually did a good job of concealing their emotions.
...rather than like now, in a shameful way, spilling tea.
Ho Mingzheng waved his hand, signaling Cao Fang to step back. He didn't immediately wipe his hands with a paper, but asked instead, "Does she know"
"I followed Mr. Huo's instructions, no matter what the diagnosis was, I used the words you prepared beforehand to tell her. Miss Fu is still unaware."
Ho Mingzheng pursed his thin lips, the photo of Fu Yan hiding in his WeChat collection flashing through his mind. The flats she ordered, the pregnancy recipes she searched on her phone... how much she yearned for a child, he knew better than anyone.
The fingers resting on the tea table clenched tightly.
Ho Mingzheng's eyes seemed to be filled with frost. "Can you deduce what kind of poison she was poisoned with"atching an adulterer.So, he suspects himself of bringing a man home late at night, does heAt the thought of this possibility, Fu Yan's breath caught in her throat. It turned out that in Huo Mingzheng...
