072 Thank you so much, Yao Yao!

The generous man's hair seemed to glow, and in Xie Yaoyao's eyes, Huo Yanxi at that moment was "Hallelujah".

His whole body radiated holy light.

Huo Yanxi felt uncomfortable under her adoring gaze. He cleared his throat and said, "However, Teacher Xie, you really should lose weight."

Xie Yaoyao immediately shut down the engine.

"Mr. Huo, can we skip this part and change the subject?" She knew she was fat, but she didn't want to lose weight.

She doesn't want to lose weight.

Huo Yanxi said seriously, "The doctor said your condition is quite dangerous, and you can't continue to gain weight."

Xie Yaoyao said dejectedly, "President Huo, you even care about your employees' figures?"

"I'm not advising you from the perspective of a boss, but from the perspective of a friend."

"Being a little chubby is fine, but if being chubby affects your health, you still need to control your weight reasonably."

Xie Yaoyao was helpless.

Does anyone know?

Being persuaded to lose weight by my ex-husband is a bittersweet feeling, isn't it?

Xie Yaoyao picked at her fingers, "But I feel pretty good right now. Look, if I didn't have this much muscle, who knows what would have happened in this car accident."

Huo Yanxi: "..."

Speechless!

Xie Yaoyao didn't want to continue talking about this, so she changed the subject, "Mr. Huo, what are your plans to do with Miss Chi?"

Chi Wanwan is a bully who abuses his power, and she is very likely the mastermind behind the arson case five years ago.

She would never let her off easily.

Huo Yanxi said, "Give them a taste of their own medicine. Don't worry, I'll give you a satisfactory solution."

In fact.

During the days Xie Yaoyao was in a coma, the Chi family brought Chi Wanwan to the ward several times to apologize to Xie Yaoyao in person.

However, he turned them all away.

Just as Xie Yaoyao was about to speak, there was a knock on the ward door, and then a nurse opened the door.

"Mr. Huo, the Chi family heard that Miss Xie has woken up and would like to apologize to her in person."

Huo Yanxi saw the Chi family of three standing behind the nurse. He turned to Xie Yaoyao and asked, "What do you think?"

Xie Yaoyao could not easily accept the harm that Chi Wanwan had caused her, but an apology from Chi Wanwan was necessary.

"Let them in."

She wanted to see how much genuine remorse Chi Wanwan had for her actions.

Huo Yanxi nodded to the nurse, who then stepped aside to let the Chi family of three in.

Xie Yaoyao struggled to sit up in bed, and Huo Yanxi reached out to help her.

He had only halfway to help when he realized something and withdrew his hand.

Xie Yaoyao glanced at him, but didn't think much of it. Instead, she looked at the Chi family of three in front of her.

Mr. Chi was in his early fifties, with graying temples and a mature and wise air about him. He was also in excellent physical condition.

Most men his age are overweight, but his posture remains upright, a result of long-term self-discipline.

What's most striking about him is his eyes; they aren't sharp when he looks at people, but rather like deep pools.

Chi's mother looked younger, with her hair styled up and wearing a modified Chinese cheongsam, exuding gentleness.

Both of them looked like highly educated people, with a particularly elegant and poised demeanor. While Chi Wanwan was beautiful, she didn't resemble her parents in any way.

As Xie Yaoyao sized them up, the other person was also sizing her up.

Chi's mother believed Chi Wanwan's words and thought of Xie Yaoyao as an extreme and petty person.

But seeing her now, looking at her chubby cheeks, I felt a strange sense of familiarity.

She placed the nutritional supplements on the table, walked to the bedside, and asked with concern, "Teacher Xie, is there anything else that's bothering you?"

Xie Yaoyao felt that the parents who could raise a child like Chi Wanwan were probably looking down on people.

But she didn't sense any sense of superiority from Chi's mother.

She is very sincere.

His sincerity made her feel at ease.

Xie Yaoyao pursed her lips. As the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face, so it was hard for her not to give him a friendly look.

"Thanks to Miss Tuochi, she didn't die in that car accident."

Chi's mother's face stiffened. She turned to look at Chi Wanwan and frowned, saying, "Wanwan, come over and apologize to Teacher Xie."

"No," Xie Yaoyao said, seeing Chi Wanwan's reluctant expression. "I don't deserve an apology from Miss Chi. Don't make me feel bad. If I upset her, she might sell me and my son to northern Myanmar."

Although it was said to be a self-deprecating remark, every word and phrase implied that Chi Wanwan was abusing her power and bullying others.

This time, not only did Chi's mother's face freeze, but Chi's father's face also turned ugly.

But they were in the wrong.

This is tantamount to kidnapping one's own child, and then there was a car accident that nearly cost someone their life.

He stepped forward and said, "Miss Chi, it was my mother and I who spoiled her. Please forgive her this time. I promise she will never dare to hurt you again."

Xie Yaoyao scoffed, "Mr. Chi, is your guarantee any good? Miss Chi is ruthless and methodical in her actions. It seems this isn't the first time she's done something like this. Are you going to cover for her for the rest of your lives?"

Seeing that her parents were already so humble, yet Xie Yaoyao was still relentless, Chi Wanwan couldn't take it anymore.

"Xie Yaoyao, don't push your luck. I've already done you a favor by coming here to apologize."

Before Xie Yaoyao could speak, Huo Yanxi, sitting next to her, said coldly, "If you're not sincere, then get out. Chairman Chi, or shall we see you in court?"

His words stunned everyone.

Chi's father raised his hand and slapped Chi Wanwan across the face, causing her to fall to the ground.

"You unfilial daughter, kneel down and apologize to Teacher Xie properly."

Chi Wanwan covered her burning cheek, looking at her father in disbelief. "Dad, you hit me because of an outsider?"

“Beating you is too lenient. Do you want to spend two years in jail? Chi Wanwan, our Chi family can’t afford to lose face like this.”

Everyone in Hong Kong knows Huo Yanxi's ruthlessness. He's clearly protecting Teacher Xie, so who would dare to oppose him?

Are you perhaps planning to let the pond break when it gets cold?

Chi Wanwan clenched her teeth tightly, her gaze towards Xie Yaoyao filled with resentment and hatred.

She knelt down in humiliation and apologized to Xie Yaoyao, "Teacher Xie, I'm sorry. I acted impulsively that day. I apologize to you."

Xie Yaoyao pursed her lips. "To be honest, I don't want to forgive you. I think we should see each other in court."

Just for the fact that Chi Wanwan kidnapped her, she should be imprisoned for several years.

This social cancer deserves far too little from a mere, perfunctory apology.

Chi's mother's heart tightened. "Teacher Xie, Wanwan is impulsive. It's because we haven't disciplined her strictly enough. As long as you forgive her, we will definitely discipline her more when we get back."

Xie Yaoyao said, "Mrs. Chi, I work in education. If a child is unruly, it's because he hasn't been taught enough lessons. It's difficult for a person to succeed through teaching, but a person will remember what he has learned for a lifetime through his own actions."

"You're covering for Miss Chi today, but she hasn't learned her lesson. She'll cause even bigger trouble next time. Once she's really messed things up, how will you cover for her then?"

The couple exchanged a glance.

Xie Yaoyao's words were not going to end well. She had Huo Yanxi backing her up, while they were the ones at fault, so they couldn't be forced to accept it.

After hearing Xie Yaoyao's words, Huo Yanxi looked at her with more appreciation.

Unafraid of power, upholding justice.

Thank you so much, Yao Yao!
