Chapter 453 A Few Words

After staring at the phone for a while, Xiao Muzhen put it back silently.

It was not until noon, when Xun Zi went back to get clean clothes for Xiao Muzhen, that Huo Yunting rushed to the hospital.

When he saw Xiao Muzhen, his eyes were filled with guilt and worry, and he hurried to the bedside.

"Zhenzhen, I'm sorry I didn't see your call this morning. How are you feeling now? Are you still feeling unwell?"

Xiao Muzhen looked indifferent, pursed her lips and said, "I'm fine. If you're busy, go back to work. The doctor said it's just a minor injury."

Noticing her coldness towards him, Huo Yunting's expression changed and he sat down directly beside the bed.

"Zhenzhen, are you angry?" His tone was cautious and humble, as never before.

Xiao Muzhen should have been angry, but at this moment she felt a little soft-hearted.

She quickly turned her head away and said coldly, "No, I just realized that your company and your brothers are more important than me."

Huo Yunting frowned upon hearing this and quickly held her hand, saying, "Why would you think so?! In my heart, you are always the most important!"

Xiao Muzhen turned to look at him, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes, "Really?"

"I can swear to God. If you don't believe me, you can tell me how to prove it to you."

Xiao Muzhen pushed his hand away, "No, there's no need to prove anything, and I really don't have anything to do here, so go back to work."

"I won't leave until this matter is resolved today!"

Xiao Muzhen's eyes flashed with impatience, and he frowned and said, "Huo Yunting, could you please stop being so childish? I want to be alone for a while, okay?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Yunting hugged him in his arms.

Xiao Muzhen froze for a moment, then struggled after realizing what was happening.

"Let me go! Let me go!"

However, no matter how she struggled or how she slapped Huo Yunting, the strength with which he held her did not loosen at all. Instead, he held her tighter and tighter, as if he was afraid that she would disappear if he let go.

Until Xiao Muzhen had no strength left and was too lazy to struggle anymore, he spoke in a low voice: "Zhenzhen, I'm sorry!"

"I know you weren't telling me that you didn't want to see me and that you wanted to be alone for a while. You're so angry right now, and being alone will only make you more unhappy. I was wrong to ignore you last night because of company matters. I'm sorry, and I won't do it again."

Xiao Muzhen bit her lower lip. The grievance and unhappiness she had felt since last night suddenly disappeared without a trace, and her mood improved.

She took a deep breath and said coldly, "You were having a party with your brothers last night, why didn't you bring me with you? Do you think I'm not good enough?"

Huo Yunting was stunned for a moment, then couldn't help laughing after he realized what was happening.

Xiao Muzhen pushed him away and said angrily, "What are you laughing at?!"

Her puffed-up look was so adorable that Huo Yunting couldn't help but pinch her face and said with a smile, "I'm laughing at your rich imagination! How could I think you're not good enough? I just think you're too good, so I don't want other men to see you!

If I could, I really want to hide you at home so that only I can see you."

Xiao Muzhen: "...I don't believe it!"

Although she said this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.

"Really, if you want to go, I will take you with me from now on."

Xiao Muzhen curled her lips and said, "No, I don't want to go!"

"Okay, okay, if you say you don't want to go, then I won't go. I'll do as you say."

"That's more like it!"

Not long after the two reconciled, Xun Zi came back.

Seeing Huo Yunting, her face turned cold and she said unhappily, "What are you doing here?!"

"Mom, I came to see Zhenzhen. I was in a meeting just now, so I didn't get here in time."

Xun Zi's expression turned extremely strange. After being stunned for several seconds, she gritted her teeth and said, "Who is your mother?! Stop yelling!"

"You also know that I'm married to Zhenzhen. You're Zhenzhen's mother, which means you're my mother."

Xun Zi: “…”

She had never seen such a shameless person!

She looked at Xiao Muzhen, who was lying on the hospital bed with a calm expression, "Zhenzhen, please let him leave quickly. I don't want to see him."

Before Xiao Muzhen could say anything, Huo Yunting whispered, "Mom, you don't have to embarrass Zhenzhen. If you don't like me, I'll leave now. I'll come to see Zhenzhen after you leave."

Xun Zi snorted coldly, "Where were you when Zhenzhen got into the car accident? How dare you speak so brazenly now? If I hadn't arranged for the two people protecting Zhenzhen to call me, Zhenzhen might still be at the scene of the accident right now!"

Huo Yunting's face changed, and his expression became extremely serious and guilty.

"I was wrong about what happened today. I will definitely be more careful in the future and won't let Zhenzhen get hurt again."

Xun Zi rolled her eyes and said sarcastically, "Everyone can say nice things, but whether they can do it or not is another matter."

"I also know that you won't believe what I say, but I will prove it with my actions."

There was still dissatisfaction in Xun Zi's eyes, but he didn't say anything.

After all, Xiao Muzhen and Huo Yunting are still together. If I make things too difficult for him, it will affect their relationship.

Xiao Muzhen looked at Huo Yunting and said, "Don't you have things to do at the company? Go back to work first and come back in the evening."

Huo Yunting nodded, "Okay, call me anytime if you have anything."

Xun Zi at the side couldn't help but sneer, "Don't ignore the phone again and say you were in a meeting and didn't see it."

"Mom, don't worry, it won't happen!"

Xun Zi felt a headache when she heard him calling her mother, and said coldly: "Hurry up and leave!"

It makes me upset just looking at it!

After Huo Yunting left, Xun Zi placed the lunch box on the table and said with disdain, "I don't know what you like about him! There are many men with the same conditions as him in the capital. I can find you someone who treats you better in a minute!"

Xiao Muzhen was silent for a few seconds, then said seriously, "There are indeed many people with the same material conditions, but there is only one Huo Yunting. Now that I've fallen in love with him, I won't give up so easily."

A hint of helplessness flashed across Xun Zi's eyes, but he didn't say anything, just sighed.

Throughout the day, many people who knew that Xiao Muzhen was hospitalized due to a car accident came to visit.

Not only did Xiao Muzhen not get a good rest, but he was even more tired than before the car accident.

"Mom, please stop them. I want to rest for a while."

Seeing the fatigue on her face, Xun Zi also looked distressed and said quickly: "Well, I won't let the people who come to see you come over next time. You should have a good rest."

"Um."

Just as Xun Zi was about to go out and instruct the bodyguards, the door of the ward was pushed open and Guo Zhenzhen walked in with a smile on her face.

"Ms. Xiao, Madam Xiao, good afternoon. I went to Qingshang to see Miss Xiao today to discuss the design direction of clothing for the next season. I heard that Miss Xiao had a car accident. How is she now?"

There was a flash of surprise in Xun Zi's eyes. The relationship between the Guo family and the Xiao family was not good, and she didn't expect Guo Zhenzhen to come.

Before she could say anything, Xiao Muzhen said calmly, "Thank you for taking this trip, Miss Guo. I'm fine. I think I can go back to work tomorrow. It won't delay my work progress. Don't worry, Miss Guo."
