Chapter 87: Cutting Off
Shen Qingran paused, "Is it because of me?"
Huo Tingxiao lowered his eyes, and his arms on both sides were slightly tense.
He looked down at Shen Qingran and spoke in a deep and slow voice.
"Shen Qingran, are you serious about the divorce you mentioned?"
Shen Qingran paused for a moment, his eyes slightly turning with a ripple.
"Seriously, I've written a guarantee. I won't lie to you."
There was a trace of ripples in Huo Tingxiao's condescending eyes.
She...still wants a divorce.
He lowered his eyes to hide the fleeting loss.
Her black hair seemed to be gilded by the sun, and half of her face stood out beautifully in the sun.
"knew."
The indifferent voice concealed his invisible thoughts.
"My competition with Zhao Donglai was just a normal exchange between him and me."
"It's not a fight."
Shen Qingran nodded.
The surroundings suddenly fell into silence.
The two of them returned to the ward.
Xiao Sun brought some replacement medicines.
The wound that had been sutured was stretched open again.
Shen Qingran took a breath.
The trembling fingertips touched his back twice.
"Captain Huo, I'm going to sew you up again. Go get some anesthetic so it doesn't hurt too much."
The fingertips with distinct joints on Huo Tingxiao's knees were a little stiff.
"No need, just sew it."
Shen Qingran hesitated a little, "Then I'll use silver needles to relieve some of your pain."
The silver needle in the hand can quickly relieve the pain.
But the skin of the spine is thin, so there is still pain.
But Huo Tingxiao sat straight.
It seems like every movement has a specified amplitude.
Only the slight whiteness of his fingertips revealed his endurance.
Shen Qingran frowned slightly and spoke softly to divert his attention.
“Captain Huo, Doctor Qin and I were looking for something in the data room just now, and something happened to fall down, and he helped me block it. It’s not what Shen Zhaoxi said.”
The words were light, but they seemed like gusts of warm wind blowing on his heart.
I felt a little more relaxed all over.
Even the pain seemed to be less painful.
Huo Tingxiao lowered his voice a bit.
"Um."
It seemed like things started to get better since she arrived in Ning City.
No approaching myself, no climbing into bed, no seduction…
Nothing...everything I imagined.
But when she gave me the drug...
That's what I whisper in my ear.
"Take me back to the capital. I love you the most."
He had checked the purchase of medicine, the administration of drugs, and the calculations, and they all went through Mother Shen’s hands, so it was impossible for someone else to frame her.
Such a woman who wants to take shortcuts and climb up the social ladder.
I'm afraid the only possibility is that she gives up on me and divorces me.
She had better options.
Obviously, Qin Xiangnan is her better choice.
Obviously, divorce was what he had hoped for in the beginning, but now he didn't know why.
Bitter, endless bitterness.
All the education he received from childhood to adulthood was the strictest.
He required himself to possess all the qualities a soldier should have, honesty, bravery, perseverance, steadiness, and he would not allow himself to make the slightest mistake step by step.
So he demands the same from his partner.
But now, he actually developed strange feelings towards Shen Qingran.
This made him feel double-standard and even hypocritical, which made him...unacceptable.
I absolutely cannot make this mistake again.
Huo Tingxiao's eyes trembled slightly, and the pain in his back seemed to be magnified several times.
His fingertips pinched his palm.
It was like cutting off the strange emotions in my heart.
After a long time, his cold voice sounded again.
"Shen Qingran, before the divorce, please keep your distance from Qin Xiangnan."
"Although your work requires contact, I hope you will try your best not to be alone with him."
"One or two incidents can be explained, but if they happen too often, even the most false rumors will cause great harm. If the political commissar handles it, it will affect your future work."
"If you really want a divorce, please be patient and return to Ning City. I will handle things as soon as possible after you have settled everything."
The atmosphere in the ward suddenly turned cold.
Shen Qingran's fingers stiffened slightly.
She looked at the sunlight shining through and revealing the coolness and indifference on his cheek.
These four sentences were like four huge slaps in her face.
It hit me hard and hurt me to the bone.
She curled her fingers slightly.
It seems that the sunlight cannot penetrate my coldness.
What he did during this period of time made him indulge himself.
There is always a little bit of luck.
It turns out that I was just being too sentimental.
She just felt like a clown whose heart was seen through by others.
Extremely embarrassing.
Yeah, how could she make such a stupid mistake.
Put your expectations on a man.
Her original dream was to come to Ning City, find a job, and get divorced.
I have to say that Huo Tingxiao's "slaps" came at a very timely moment.
Drinking Sprite and feeling refreshed is probably what it feels like.
Shen Qingran's smile returned to her face.
Polite yet distant.
Help him treat his wound in a businesslike manner.
The voice was calm and clear.
"Captain Huo, the wound has been treated. I will go back first."
"Thanks."
Song Chuxiao just walked in.
"Hello, sister-in-law."
Shen Qingran nodded politely, "Hello, Captain Song, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
Looking at Shen Qingran's appearance, Song Chuxiao hurried over.
"Old Huo, did you have a fight?"
In this atmosphere, even a dog would tremble with fear if it came in.
Huo Tingxiao shifted his gaze and fixed his gaze on the figure outside the window as he walked out of the building.
There was a flash of pain in his eyes.
Even breathing feels a little heavy.
"It's okay, that's how it should be."
Song Chuxiao looked at him with a desolate expression on his face, and his whole temperament seemed even more lonely.
He couldn't help but frowned, "Old Huo, have you really thought it through?"
He had been seeing it all, and he didn't believe that Huo Tingxiao couldn't feel his own heart.
Huo Tingxiao sat on the bed with a sullen face, buttoning his clothes methodically.
His face was cold and calm.
"Old Song, you should go back."
Song Chuxiao looked at his dead face and gritted his teeth in anger.
"You, be careful! If your sister-in-law really divorces you and finds someone else, you won't even have a place to cry!"
As expected, we are brothers. You can touch my heart better than anyone else.
"Find me a car. I want to go back to Ning City."
"Okay, don't come to me when you cry next time!"
He couldn't help but want to curse, what an idiot.
