Chapter 453 Gift
"Today I give you this bracelet. From now on, you are a member of my Huo family. I originally wanted to wait until you and Xilin got married to give it to you, but I can't wait any longer. I want to give it to you on this festive day."
Mrs. Huo continued with tears in her eyes: "Thank you, fortunately you appeared by Xilin's side and made up for his regrets for so many years."
Tonight, during the reunion dinner, Old Madam Huo looked at the happiness in Huo Xilin's eyes, which was something she had never seen before.
Only then did she realize that Xu Qingsui had made up for what she owed the child, so she felt grateful to the child from the bottom of her heart.
"I will feel relieved to have you help me take care of Xilin in the future. You must live a happy life. Mother blesses you." After saying this, Mrs. Huo gently placed Xu Qingsui's hand in Huo Xilin's palm, as if it was a handover ceremony.
Xu Qingsui turned to look at Huo Xilin, and he turned to look at her.
In the colorful lights of the fireworks, the two saw each other's eyes clearly, like stars in the dark night, illuminating each other.
When the clock strikes twelve, the new year begins, bringing new expectations and new hopes.
Old Madam Huo took Xu Youyou back, leaving only Xu Qingsui and Huo Xilin in the room.
They were just like they always were. Although they couldn't hug each other because Huo Xilin was injured, just lying quietly beside each other was better than any words.
Before going to bed, Huo Xilin whispered, "Happy New Year."
Although Xu Qingsui closed his eyes, the smile on his lips could not be stopped. It turned out that happiness was such a simple thing. Even if it was just a simple word, as long as it was spoken by a loved one, it could make one happy for a long time.
"Happy New Year."
She said the same to him.
When Xu Qingsui woke up early the next morning and opened her eyes, she found that Huo Xilin had already woken up and was staring at her with his eyes open, motionlessly.
Xu Qingsui felt a little embarrassed by being stared at, but thinking that today was the new year, he was the first to greet him: "Happy New Year."
Huo Xilin raised the corners of his lips slightly, which was enough to show that he was in a good mood: "Have you heard the story of Santa Claus?"
Xu Qingsui was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "We are celebrating New Year, and it has nothing to do with Christmas."
"It does matter. The New Year in the West is Christmas. On the night of this day, Santa Claus will crawl into thousands of homes from the chimneys and give gifts to the children. Here, during the New Year, there will also be surprises hidden under the pillow."
After hearing what Huo Xilin said, Xu Qingsui subconsciously reached under her pillow and felt something cold. She took it out and saw that it was a big red envelope!
She suddenly became very excited. Even though she was an adult, she still couldn't help but feel happy when faced with the sudden surprise.
She couldn't wait to open the red envelope, but inside was not cash, but a bank card. She looked at Huo Xilin in confusion: "Hasn't your property been transferred to my name? Why are you giving me this bank card? "
"This is my salary card. It's my private money. The password is your birthday. You can spend it as you like."
How pitiful! As the president of the Huo Group, not only are his assets under his wife's name, but he has even handed over his salary card!
"Actually, you don't have to give me all your money. Don't I trust you?"
"Since it's a salary card, there must not be much money in it, but it's also a little token of my love for you. I just want to tell you that everything I have is yours. I have no selfish motives or concealments towards you!"
It turned out that he was using this to express his determination to her.
She couldn't refuse this gift.
"I have a gift for you too." Xu Qingsui said with a smile, "Close your eyes."
Huo Xilin's face was full of anticipation. Under Xu Qingsui's gaze, he obediently closed his eyes, looking forward to the gift she was about to give him.
A cold kiss gently fell on Huo Xilin's lips, like a dragonfly in spring, landing on the calm lake, instantly creating ripples.
Huo Xilin slowly opened his eyes, and seeing Xu Qingsui's shy look, he blushed and said, "I gave myself to you as a gift."
She was really embarrassed to tell Huo Xilin that she had been worrying about his injury for some time and had forgotten to prepare a New Year gift for him.
"Then this is truly the most precious gift in the world." Huo Xilin was extremely satisfied with this gift. To him, it surpassed everything else.
All he wanted in his life was Xu Qingsui, and now, he finally got it.
"Thank you for choosing me. I will spend my whole life cherishing you." Huo Xilin spoke to Xu Qingsui seriously, enunciating each word.
"Me too!"
In the new year, they made promises to each other and made a sincere commitment to spend their whole lives together.
After the New Year, Huo Xilin had a follow-up examination. Now he can get up and walk. His several fractures are all in the upper body, not in the legs. With various careful treatments and care, his injuries are recovering quickly. In another ten days, the brace on his neck can be removed.
Tang Cheng had heard about Xu Qingsui's situation from Xu Wanshan. Before leaving for the north, he went to the hospital to visit the two of them.
"Senior Sister Xu, I'll go over and do the preparations first. When you're done here, come over. I'll be waiting for you."
Xu Qingsui was also thinking about the restoration. She had originally planned to start restoring the original painting after the New Year, but due to Huo Xilin's situation she couldn't leave for the time being, and Tang Cheng couldn't complete it alone, so the restoration had to be put on hold.
"Thank you for your hard work. I will personally talk to the person in charge." Xu Qingsui said to Tang Cheng apologetically, "If...if it takes a long time for me to return, you can go back to Senior Brother Xu first and work with him. I am sorry for delaying you."
Considering Huo Xilin's injuries, it would take time to recover, which might take three to two months at the shortest, or more than half a year at the longest. She couldn't possibly leave him alone.
"I understand, Senior Sister. You don't have to worry about me. I'll go over and finish what needs to be sorted out first, and then I'll do other things and wait for you. We agreed to finish this painting together!"
"Okay!" Xu Qingsui made up her mind that after Huo Xilin recovered from her injuries, she would focus all her attention on restoring the painting. Completing this painting was not only an agreement with Tang Cheng, but also to fulfill the wishes of her grandparents, promote the reputation of the Xu family, and also to achieve her own dream!
