Chapter 139 Mom, I'm Not Ready for a Divorce
Shen Qingran's hand just rested on the door handle.
But before Huo Tingxiao could answer, he heard Huo's mother start to lecture him again with dissatisfaction.
"You know what you did in Ning City."
"First, let's ask for Elder Xu's help. What kind of ability can a country girl who has only studied traditional Chinese medicine for two years have? Are you so eager to guarantee her? If something goes wrong, will you give up your future?"
"As for Jiang Dongyang, he is your father's subordinate after all. So what if Tingzhou asked for help? You caused discord between two brothers just for a woman. Did I teach you that?"
The more she spoke, the higher her mother's voice became.
"Huo Tingxiao, you are so great now that you are the head of the military corps. You look down on your brother, right?"
Huo Tingxiao pursed his thin lips, and his tense jawline showed a bit of sharpness.
His voice was unusually serious, "Mom, was it you who pushed that person?"
Mrs. Huo's mumbling and complaining stopped abruptly.
Then there was another sound like a screaming chicken.
"Huo Tingxiao, are you here to teach me a lesson?"
"Mom, if you report someone to the police, you will go to jail. Dad won't cover for you."
Mrs. Huo was stunned, and her voice suddenly became quieter.
"Huo Tingxiao, you came back just to seek justice for her mother?"
"Did you see that I was injured too?"
As he spoke, his temples began to throb with anger.
Ji Huiying lived a glorious life. Even when her husband, who held a high position, was forced to move to the countryside, she never complained.
Since Ji Huiying could be a lady because of her husband, she could also naturally be a criminal who was demoted for her husband.
Thinking about all the suffering and fatigue I have endured over the years.
Not only does his own son not stand on his side, he also attacks him on behalf of outsiders.
The more I thought about Ji Huiying, the more uncomfortable I felt.
My eyes turned red.
Listening to the chaos inside, Shen Qingran lowered his brows and walked away silently.
If she went in at this time, it would only add fuel to the fire.
After a while, the sobbing inside stopped.
Ji Huiying held the handkerchief in her hand and pulled Huo Tingxiao's hand.
"Listen to your mother and divorce her. It's only been a few months and she has caused so much trouble for you."
"Even if you don't marry someone else, you can't live with a troublemaker. Not only can she not be a good wife, but she also holds you back."
"Ting Xiao, your father is living on thin ice and is counting on you. Can you bear to see him worrying about your affairs while working hard on his own affairs all day long?"
I have to say.
Ji Huiying knew her son very well and knew how to strike him at his weakest point.
Huo Tingxiao looked at Ji Huiying expressionlessly.
"Mom, Dad and I will have a good discussion about Dad's matter. I just want to ask you, can you push the person?"
Ji Huiying's heart choked and her face turned pale.
Gnashing her teeth with disdain, "No matter how much I dislike someone, I will never push her away, and she will hit me without mercy."
The country woman was strong and fierce.
She's missing a tuft of her scalp, she must be incredibly ugly.
Her body was in even more pain. The old woman's pinching only caused pain but no injuries, leaving her speechless with pain.
"How did that person fall?"
Ji Huiying stammered, "I wanted to pull her, but I didn't expect my heel to fall off, and my ankle twisted and I bumped into her."
She really didn't mean it.
But looking at her son's eyes, she still felt upset.
"Why are you looking at me like that? Did that woman complain to you?"
Huo Tingxiao's eyes were dark and deep, and his voice was cold and solemn.
"She didn't. I was in closed training for the past two days."
Ji Huiying looked unhappy and hesitated, "Then why did you rush back?"
Huo Tingxiao concentrated slightly, "Mom, her mother is deeply hurt. Whether it's intentional or unintentional, those who should apologize should apologize."
Ji Huiying choked, what kind of son is this.
He tilted his head, "I'm not going."
Ji Huiying glanced at him arrogantly, asking her to apologize was absolutely impossible.
Instead, he started to change the subject.
“When are you getting divorced?”
Huo Tingxiao raised his eyes and said, "Mom, I'm not planning on getting a divorce."
Ji Huiying's angry gaze met Huo Tingxiao's calm gaze.
There was a sudden silence.
Ji Huiying's voice sounded somewhat anxious.
"Mom knows that divorce will have an impact on your future, but your dad will be back soon, and no one will make things difficult for Huo Jianyuan's son. You don't have to worry about this. Later, I will pick a good lesbian for you who will help your future. She must be outstanding in both character and appearance..."
Before he could finish his words, he heard the door open with a click.
Huo Jianyuan was standing at the door with a gloomy face. Through his shoulder, Shen Qingran was standing behind him with a pale face.
Gritting his teeth tightly.
There was silence.
Outside the door, Shen Qingran felt cold all over, and his body was shaking with uncontrollable anger.
He pinched his palms with his fingers, forcing himself to calm down.
Instead, Huo Jianyuan walked in with a gloomy face.
He glanced at Huo Tingxiao and spoke in a deep and stern voice.
"Take your wife out to sit for a while."
Shen Qingran's fingers felt slightly numb as she looked at the man walking towards her.
She turned slightly and missed his outstretched right hand.
Passing by.
He walked straight to Ji Huiying's window.
He closed his eyelashes and met her angry gaze.
The sound was crisp and cold, like knocking on glass.
"Mrs. Huo, if you have something to say, just come to me. I will do whatever you want to do. However, my mother can't stand the second injury. This time it's a fracture, and next time, I don't know if it will be fatal!"
As he said this, he didn't care that Ji Huiying's face looked ugly as if she had been constipated for days.
Turning to look at Huo Jianyuan, he said, "Uncle Huo, I believe what you just said to me."
Ji Huiying's eyes almost popped out as she was slapped hard in the face.
His chest heaved with anger.
"Shen Qingran, you, you......"
"Okay, Tingxiao, take Xiao Shen out for a walk."
Huo Tingxiao frowned and looked at the figure who turned around and walked past him quickly towards the outside.
Chased after him.
Huo Jianyuan closed the door gently and sat aside calmly.
The expression on his face couldn't tell whether he was happy or angry.
There was a sticky burning sensation in the air.
"Jianyuan I..."
"Huiying."
"I talked to you about this the other day when you called me. Ting Xiao was able to climb to his current position not because of me, but because I was a burden to him. Otherwise, with his current abilities, he would definitely be more than just a group leader."
"Instead of thinking about being more considerate and comforting him, you push him like this."
Ji Huiying gritted her teeth and said, "I am doing this for his own good. Obviously Ting Xiao deserves someone better."
"Better?" Ji Huiying fell into her own vicious circle, and Huo Jianyuan spoke sternly.
"Are you unwilling to accept what happened before, or is it because Xiao Shen is really a bad person?"
"You should have seen clearly what happened today. Ting Xiao likes Xiao Shen, or at least cares about her a lot. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken a plane back right after the mission."
"He has such a cold-hearted personality, it's rare for someone to soften his edges. Do you want him to be like this his whole life, without someone close to him?"
Ji Huiying was left speechless.
I wanted to struggle to explain again.
"But, that woman..."
Huo Jianyuan said in a sonorous and serious voice, "That woman is your daughter-in-law!"
Looking at his lover's face, Huo Jianyuan patted the back of her hand.
"I'm only telling you this for the last time. If you still insist on not changing your ways, and Ting Xiao really holds a grudge against you in the future, you will regret it."
"Also, I've asked the doctor, you can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow and go visit your in-laws. No matter what, you should say sorry to others."
After saying that, Huo Jianyuan stood up and walked out the door.
——
Outside the hospital.
Huo Tingxiao quickly caught up with the figure walking out.
He walked faster and faster, and even started to jog.
Huo Tingxiao took big steps, and the advantage of his long legs was that he caught up with Shen Qingran before he had to walk far.
The moment he reached out to grab her arm, she moved aside.
Huo Tingxiao's hand fell into thin air.
The autumn wind was blowing hard and her hair was flying.
Shen Qingran pursed her lips and stubbornly didn't look up.
Huo Tingxiao grabbed her arm and held her in his arms forcefully.
Shen Qingran tilted her head and said nothing, her pretty little face full of unhappiness.
Huo Tingxiao hugged him tighter.
A familiar smell entered my nostrils.
He felt much more relaxed all over.
Shen Qingran pushed his arms away with force.
Lowered eyes.
"Look up." The tone of command.
Shen Qingran ignored him and turned around to leave.
Huo Tingxiao grabbed her arm and ordered again, "Look at me!"
Shen Qingran reached out and shook his hand away.
"Huo Tingxiao, let go."
There was a hint of hoarseness in his angry voice.
All the grievances I had suffered in the past two days came flooding back.
She shouldn't have been tempted.
So she deserved it, otherwise everything Ji Huiying said today would not have hurt her.
Huo Tingxiao frowned and looked at her with tears in her eyes.
I felt annoyed and distressed.
He reached out and held her fingers that were red from scratching.
Gently stroking her palm which was as soft as tofu, "What did you hear?"
