Is she distressed?
Nanzhi slowly looked down along Huo Sijue's shoulder.
While she was deep in thought, she unconsciously stretched out her hand and slowly slid it down along the curve of the man's back, finally settling on his waist.
She was distressed.
Nanzhi said nothing and looked complicated. She thought several times that she no longer loved this man and wanted to be with her mother for the rest of her life. But when Huo Sijue asked this question, Nanzhi was still speechless.
"No." She answered coldly and simply.
"Nanzhi, has anyone ever told you that you are really not good at lying?"
Huo Sijue's tone was gentle, his fingers had clear joints, and his slender fingertips covered the back of Nanzhi's hand.
Slightly cool…
Nanzhi's heart trembled: "Did you take off your clothes and feel a little cold?"
After she finished speaking, she was about to close the window, but Huo Sijue stopped her.
"I'm scared, can you sleep with me?" Huo Sijue's voice was soft.
Nanzhi had never heard him speak like this.
"You...you really don't have a fever, do you?" She doubted herself.
Nanzhi panicked and took out the thermometer from the table and let Huo Sijue hold it under his arm. Ten minutes later, she took it out calmly and took a closer look at it, 36.5.
With such a normal body temperature, how could Huo Sijue say such coquettish words?
"There is only one bed here." Nanzhi emphasized.
The hall originally had two single beds, but Jiang Weiwei was afraid that the bed would be too small to sleep a tall person like Huo Sijue, so she put the two beds together.
He patted the spot beside him.
"You can still sleep here." Huo Sijue took a breath of air: "If you go up like this, what should I do if I feel uncomfortable?"
Nanzhi frowned.
Why doesn't she believe it so much?
"I inherited the family business at a young age. Since I was 18, many people have been waiting for me to fall from this position, but I have survived them all."
"Grandpa hit me not because of Gu Mingxi, but because of the business war."
Business?
Seeing that Nanzhi was curious, Huo Sijue stopped talking and continued to pat the place next to him.
"Go to sleep and I'll tell you slowly."
That night, Huo Sijue told many stories about the Huo family, including his grandfather, grandma, and the death of his parents. In the end, his great-grandfather used coercion and inducement, and was determined to let him grow up...
When he heard that it was almost dawn, Huo Sijue seemed to come closer to her in a daze and placed a kiss on her forehead.
This must be a dream.
Nanzhi fell asleep completely.
When the sun was about three meters high, Jiang Wei screamed.
"ah--"
"You, you..."
"Xiao Zhi, didn't you sleep with me last night?"
Jiang Weiwei's appearance was as if her cabbage had been eaten by a pig. To describe it in four words, it was simply 'heartbreaking'!
"Don't argue, she's tired." Huo Sijue looked sternly and glared at Jiang Weiwei.
These six words were so devastating that she suddenly cried.
"Brother, I'm sorry for you, ah... I lost three bags for nothing!"
When Nanzhi was woken up, she muffled her voice and stood up with one hand supporting her body. She saw Jiang Weiwei crying with snot and tears.
"Who died?"
Crying so hard?
"Nanzhi, we are still not good friends. We agreed to sleep with me, how could you come down and sleep with him!" Jiang Weiwei jumped in anger.
"Stop it!" Nanzhi had just woken up and his head was not very clear yet.
She held her forehead and thought for a while: "Who slept with him?"
"Huo Sijue said the wound hurt, so I came down and chatted with him for a while. But I got tired of listening, so..."
Nanzhi couldn't remember anything about what happened next.
Did you fall asleep later?
"Uuuuuu——"
Jiang Weiwei is still making trouble.
"Noisy." Huo Sijue was disgusted.
"You still dislike me?" Jiang Weiwei pointed at herself.
Didn't she hear it wrong?
"Please, you were not good to Xiaozhi, so you got divorced. Now that we are separated, don't pester her! If you don't want it, there will be someone waiting eagerly to get it!"
Before Jiang Weiwei could finish her words, Huo Sijue glanced at her with a stern look. She was so frightened that she suddenly took a step back. She couldn't even shed tears anymore and was holding them back.
Outside, someone knocked on the door.
Nanzhi was upset and was stunned as soon as he opened the door.
"Si Mian?"
Nanzhi stayed at the door, unable to move for a long time.
Outside the door, Huo Simian was sitting in a wheelchair, followed by a housekeeper. He was wearing a black sweater, with brown hair scattered on his forehead, looking gentle and obedient.
"Sister-in-law, I heard that eldest brother is here, so I came to take a look."
The relationship between Huo Sijue and his uncle was not good. Under such circumstances, Huo Simian was really willing to come to visit.
Nanzhi quickly stood aside and made way for Huo Simian to come in.
She turned on the light and opened the curtains.
The hospital was suddenly brightly lit.
"Brother, let me see you."
Huo Simian pushed the wheelchair to the bedside. He smiled when he saw that the wound was carefully bandaged and tied with a bow.
"Only my sister-in-law dares."
Looking at the entire Huo family, almost everyone lives their lives looking at Huo Sijue's expression. The whole family's hopes also rested on him alone.
He has always kept his emotions and angers secret, and pays great attention to his words and deeds.
It was the first time Huo Simian had seen him lying on the hospital bed like this, decorated with bows.
"Who asked you to come?" Huo Sijue said with a cold face.
"Brother, don't worry, grandma doesn't know. I went to see my great-grandfather yesterday and heard what Butler Huo said."
Huo Simian spoke in a sweet tone. He waved his hand, and the servant behind him came in with a large bag of supplements.
"Grandpa doesn't say anything, but he still misses you in his heart. As soon as I went there yesterday, he asked Butler Huo to give me a bunch of things."
Huo Simian smiled softly: "Why do I need such a big supplement?"
"I don't have a wife, I'm not hurt, and I don't have to work hard."
"Looking at it, I just want to lend my hand and give it to you."
After Huo Simian finished speaking, he glanced at Nanzhi.
"Sister-in-law, did you just wake up? Did I come too early?"
"It's not early, it's almost eleven o'clock." Nanzhi's voice became softer and softer, and she felt guilty.
"Since you're here, let's stay and have dinner together at noon. I'll go to the restaurant next door to order." Nanzhi straightened her hair awkwardly and hurriedly went upstairs to change clothes.
Huo Sijue said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescence.
At noon, Nanzhi borrowed a big table from next door.
She bought a lot of things. In her eyes, Huo Simian was just a child. As a former sister-in-law, since he has come to her territory, as a host, of course she must entertain him well.
"Simian, please eat more." Nanzhi greeted gently on the square wooden table.
The small plate in front of Huo Simian was filled with vegetables.
Huo Sijue's face was expressionless, and he couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy. However, every time Nanzhi showed concern for Huo Simian, he would frown slightly and then loosen his eyebrows briefly.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Just as Huo Simian was about to put the chicken drumstick into his mouth, he noticed a cold gaze and put it down again.
"Give it to brother, he is sick."
"You don't need it, brother!" Huo Simian had just put the chicken legs into Huo Sijue's bowl when Nanzhi took them back.
"Be good, you are still young, eat more, my sister-in-law loves you."
Snapped--
Huo Sijue put down his chopsticks.
