Chapter 131 Three Little Turtles
It was almost noon when Lu Fengqing finally received the flowers that Assistant Fang had brought back.
Assistant Fang had other things to attend to, so she left after delivering the flowers.
After a night, the tips of the petals began to darken. Lu Fengqing gently touched them a few times and took out the card that was placed in the middle of the bouquet.
She had complained before about how that jerk never included a card when he sent flowers, but this time he actually wrote one and put it inside.
The card, when folded in half, was about half the size of a palm. Lu Fengqing unfolded it.
The first thing that catches the eye is three small turtles sketched hastily with colored pens.
The two on either side are slightly larger. The yellow one has a red hat on its back with the word "I" written inside. The pink one has a big bow on its back with the word "you" written inside. The two big turtles are leading the small blue turtle in the middle. The small blue turtle has a heart on its back with the word "love" written inside.
The pink and blue turtles were drawn based on the previous drawing by Rui Rui. The dog man added a large yellow turtle on the other side and added words on it. The handwriting was not bad, but the drawing skills were really not good. It was not even as good as Rui Rui's. It was just enough to make people understand what the thing was.
The words on the backs of the three turtles, from left to right, together spell "I love you".
On the left is "me", on the right is "you", and the little turtle in the middle carries love on its back.
Lu Fengqing's tears fell.
What a jerk! Even his confession is so subtle and flirtatious.
She had suspected he had heard something when he tested her earlier, and now it seemed he did.
If he hadn't suspected anything, that would have been fine. But once he became suspicious, she didn't expect to be able to keep it from him for long, but she never thought it would happen so quickly.
But even if he knows it, she still wants to tell him in person when he wakes up, and also settle accounts with him.
Huo Huai Sui had never received flowers before and had no idea what her fourth brother would write on the cards. She was very curious, so curious that her heart itched, but she didn't dare to peek. She handed the tissue box to Lu Feng Qing and asked, "Niannian, do you want to find some vases to put the flowers in?"
Lu Fengqing hummed in agreement and handed her the bouquet.
Huo Huaisui sat on the sofa with Lu Fengqing, lost in thought all morning. Finally, he found something to do and happily carried the bouquet to find a bottle.

In the hospital, Huo Yao stayed by the bedside and never left her side.
The last time she was by a hospital bedside like this was many years ago, except that back then it was her husband, and now it's her son.
She originally had a very good and perfect family. Her husband loved and respected her, and although her son was naughty, he respected her as his mother from the bottom of his heart. The family of three lived happily together.
Now everything is gone.
They were willing to sacrifice themselves for others, but no one thought about what would happen to her.
It's impossible not to hate or resent.
But who should she blame?
Blame the driver who caused the accident, blame Lu Fengqing, blame the father and son, blame God.
She was filial to her parents when she was at home, and devoted to her husband and children after marriage. She had never wronged anyone in her life, yet it seemed as if all the retribution had come upon her.
Looking at her son's sleeping face, Huo Yao said wearily, "If you dare to sleep like your father and refuse to wake up, I'll go back to the Huo family. I'm only in my forties, still young, and I won't live a life of widowhood for your father. Your wife is only in her twenties, so she certainly won't. If you don't want to wake up with another father and your wife running off with someone else, then you'd better think about it."
Huo Yao recalled what she had heard before about the premeditated nature of her husband's car accident, paused, and sighed, "Your father doesn't even dare to hide things from me, but you're so lucky."
No matter what she said, the person in the hospital bed remained motionless, just like before, always liking to go against her.
She wanted him to wake up, to give her some kind of response, but he did the opposite.
The sound of a door opening came from behind her, but Huo Yao didn't turn around or say anything more.
Gu Jinhong walked to the bedside, looked at Gu Suixing for a long time, and suddenly said, "There are doctors here watching over you. You should go back to the company."
Huo Yao did not respond.
Gu Jinhong looked at Huo Yao with a deep gaze, "He doesn't want my things, but Zhenjun always does. You have to protect them for him."
Huo Yao remained unmoved.
She left her husband for a short time back then and he was transferred to a private nursing home. She hasn't been able to see him since. She won't make the same mistake twice.
She wants nothing but her son now.
Gu Jinhong knew that no matter what he said, his daughter-in-law wouldn't listen, so he didn't say anything more and turned to leave.
He's old and can't keep up with young people; staying up for one night is already his limit.
When Zhenjun had his accident, he stayed at the hospital the whole time. His grandson, who was just starting college, was the one who comforted him at the company. Now, no one can do those things for him. The company and the media are all waiting for him to arrange for them to be comforted. He can't afford to waste his time here.
Not long after Gu Jinhong left, Gu Zhenying came in carrying a lunchbox. "Have something to eat first, come and try my cooking."
Huo Yao nodded and walked to the small round table with Gu Zhenying.
Last night, after Gu Suixing came out of the emergency room, the people waiting outside left one after another. The food that Gu Zhenying brought was something she had cooked herself and brought back.
Three dishes and a soup, simple and plain, not particularly fancy, but smells delicious.
Huo Yao didn't have much of an appetite, but she still forced herself to eat.
Seeing that she could eat, Gu Zhenying was relieved and said gently, "Sui Xing is lucky, he'll be fine. He even brought his girlfriend to the Xie residence to see me and his uncle a while ago, and said he plans to get married this year..."
Huo Yao suddenly looked up. "He went to the Xie residence?"
Gu Zhenying was puzzled. "Yes, just a while ago."
Huo Yao's expression changed slightly, but she didn't say anything. She ate until she was half full and then refused to eat anymore.
Gu Zhenying didn't force her and got up to pack her lunchbox.
Huo Yao walked to the bedside, stood quietly for a moment, took out her phone, and dialed Huo Huai'an's number. "Where are you?"
"Huh?" Huo Huai'an was taken aback for a moment before answering, "At the traffic police brigade."
"Come over when you have time," Huo Yao said before hanging up the phone.
She had always thought that the car accident was an accident, but she never imagined it wasn't.
That car was heading straight for Lu Fengqing back then, if it's the same this time...
