Chapter 59 I Wanted to Fight Back

Looking at the handsome man in a suit and tie with a noble temperament who appeared at the door.

Colleagues were shocked: "Huo, Mr. Huo?"

Huo Min nodded calmly, his gaze fixed on Mu Yuan, who was lying on the bed, apparently frozen. "Does your eye still hurt?"

At this moment, Mu Yuan was afraid that her colleagues would find out, and at the same time, she was puzzled as to why he appeared.

When she saw her colleagues, their gazes all shifted from Huo Min's face to hers.

Mu Yuan suppressed the turmoil in her heart and pretended to be polite: "It doesn't hurt anymore. Thank you for your concern, Mr. Huo."

"Yeah." He moved naturally, facing three gazes, pulled over a chair, and sat directly beside her bed.

He glanced at his two stunned colleagues and dismissed them in a cold voice, "Thank you for your hard work, you can go back now."

"Mr. Huo, you want to..."

Mu Yuan stared at him intently, afraid that he would make some shocking remarks.

Huo Min noticed it from the corner of his eye, raised his eyebrows, and said calmly: "Condolences."

Mu Yuan's tense nerves finally relaxed.

He told lies very naturally.

The two colleagues really didn't find anything wrong and looked at Mu Yuan: "Then Engineer Mu, we will go back first."

Mu Yuan quickly put away her nervous expression: "Okay, thank you."

"Goodbye, Mr. Huo."

Huo Min nodded faintly.

However, just as the colleague reached the door, he turned around and said, "By the way, Mr. Mu, when you go back, you should notify your husband to pick you up. Try to avoid traveling alone recently."

Mu Yuan's nerves, which had just relaxed, shot to the top at the word "husband".

Her throat was like a rusty production belt, stuck for a long time before it could operate normally: "Okay..."

She didn't turn her head, but she could feel Huo Min's burning gaze.

His fingers curled up on the quilt, his brain working quickly to explain.

"you……"

"They don't know it's you."

They spoke almost at the same time.

Huo Min leaned back in his chair, his large hands with distinct wrist bones loosely clasped and hanging between his legs, beneath the finely crafted black and silver round cufflinks. His casual posture hinted at a sense of lethargy.

"I know." His voice was flat and without any inflection.

Mu Yuan frowned: "You know?"

Huo Min said calmly, "I'm not up to par."

He laughed at himself and said that his sarcasm was too glaring.

It made Mu Yuan feel numb in her heart.

She opened her lips, wanting to say that she didn't mean that, but what she did couldn't refute her intention.

Huo Min changed the subject and said calmly, "The doctor examined you. Your eyes have been cleaned with drops of water, but you still need to observe them. Let me know if you feel any discomfort."

Mu Yuan swallowed the explanation in his throat.

"good."

But he suddenly stood up.

Mu Yuan's gaze followed subconsciously.

He poured a cup of warm water from the kettle on the bedside table and handed it over.

"Drink something, your throat is dry."

Mu Yuan's eyes froze.

She was indeed thirsty.

None of her colleagues noticed this.

Unexpectedly, he noticed it.

"Thank you..." Mu Yuan took it and took a sip. The water that flowed into her throat went down to her heart, moistening the dryness.

The police arrived.

As soon as he saw the police rushing in at the entrance, Mu Yuan subconsciously perked up and became nervous.

But the next second, his consciousness was forcefully drawn away by Huo Min again.

He bent down and tucked the corner of the quilt for her.

Backed away and stood in the corner.

He clearly didn't say anything else, but Mu Yuan's attention was always drawn to him.

Even the slight nervousness I felt when seeing the police just now disappeared silently.

After taking some notes, he asked, "The other party has been detained. Do you want to mediate?"

Mu Yuan's lips just opened.

But Huo Min, with a cold tone, answered first: "No mediation, pursue it to the end."

Mu Yuan immediately looked sideways.

His expression was stern and his low-pressure aura was filled with inhuman coldness.

She was surprised by his extreme reaction.

The police still had official duties to attend to, so after receiving a definite response, they left.

In terms of her temperament, she wants the other party to be punished.

But from a human perspective, Mu Yuan thought of what his colleague described: there are four elderly people and two children to support at home.

Some people just can't bear it.

Seeing that she remained silent, Huo Min asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Mu Yuan raised her eyes and met his expression, which was no longer as cold as before, but rather as gentle as the surface of a quiet lake, rippling gently with the wind.

His mood was the opposite of what it was just now.

She was stunned for a moment.

She began to understand the changes in his expression out of surprise.

Before this, it had always been a difficult task to read his facial expression and understand his psychology.

Now it suddenly feels like the Ren and Du meridians are opened.

Meeting his penetrating gaze, Mu Yuan couldn't help but feel uncomfortable, but she still spoke her mind: "After all, she didn't cause any actual harm to me. Chen Zhoufeng has already been arrested. If she is arrested, there will really be no one to take care of the old and young in their family. I think I should just ask her to apologize and let it go."

She watched as the gentleness on his face was like a landslide, and then it instantly fell into the coldness of ice and snow.

But he met her surprised expression.

He seemed to realize that his emotions were showing, so he lowered his eyes and forced himself to regain his indifferent expression.

But the deep voice said, "Yuanyuan, anyone who does something wrong must be punished. Her hardship cannot be a reason for her to hurt you."

Mu Yuan frowned slightly: "I understand, but I..."

Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Huo Min who suddenly raised his eyes.

There was a brutality in his eyes that she had never seen before. His jawline was so tight that it was cold and hard. He spoke almost word by word: "She hurt you, and I wanted to retaliate."

Tooth for tooth...

So he originally wanted to throw sulfuric acid back?

After Mu Yuan realized his intention, her whole body subconsciously felt cold.

He saw her surprise.

His Adam's apple rolled heavily, and he regretted blurting out his true feelings impulsively.

His image in her mind was never very good.

Now she saw another side of him.

I should be even more disgusted.

He avoided meeting her gaze and said in a muffled voice, "You don't have to look at me like that. This matter cannot be discussed. She hurt you, and there is no way I'll let her go."

He seemed to mind that she was hurt?

A strange feeling welled up in Mu Yuan's heart.

"I understand." After a while, she weighed the pros and cons and said softly.

I thought she would be angry or have some other rejection reaction based on being against him.

Unexpectedly, she agreed.

Huo Min suddenly raised his eyes, his black pupils filled with surprise.

His gaze was too intense.

Mu Yuan found it hard to resist. She looked away and pretended nothing had happened: "I just think what you said makes sense. If you make a mistake, you must accept the punishment. After all, everything is your own fate. As for the elderly and children..."

She hadn't finished speaking yet, but he seemed to know what she was thinking and took the initiative: "I will handle the family issues. After all, they are the family members of group employees. The group will not sit idly by."

"good……"

She opened and closed her lips. It was actually very humanitarian to handle it this way.

Silence returned to the room.

She lowered her eyelashes and avoided his gaze.

But his gaze was too direct.

It's simply impossible to escape.

The moment their eyes met, she was so warmed by his affectionate smile that her eyelashes blinked faster.

He immediately looked away.

Her eyelashes drooped, and the heat in her heart spread to her cheeks. She felt uneasy and simply lifted the quilt and wanted to get out of bed.

Huo Min came over immediately: "Why are you getting out of bed?"

"I'll go get discharged."

Huo Min's face was serious: "Your eyes need to stay in the hospital for observation." It was obvious that he did not agree to be discharged.

Unlike his nervousness, Mu Yuan was calm: "Didn't the doctor clean my eyes? I don't feel anything now, so there's no need to stay here."

Huo Min's eyebrows suddenly fell. "No, at least after tonight, I can be discharged after observation and see if there is no problem."

He took advantage of his long legs and stretched them out to push Mu Yuan's shoes aside.

Mu Yuan, whose feet landed in the air, said: ...

What's going on? Why do I suddenly feel that he is so childish?

Mu Yuan frowned: "Give me back my shoes."

"Give me back my tie first."

“…” She had completely forgotten about this.
