Chapter 66: Accept it as fate
Faced with Yan Xisui's pitiful appearance, Huo Xilin remained unmoved and said again in a tough attitude: "It's getting late, you should go back!"
Yan Xisui stared at Xu Qingsui intently. This woman must have said something to Brother Lin, which is why he was so cold to her.
She still remembered that when she had just finished the operation, Brother Lin accompanied her every day, and she thought Huo Xilin had begun to change his mind.
But after she recovered a little, Huo Xilin went to Country F and brought Xu Qingsui back. From then on, his attitude towards her changed.
Yan Xisui could not accept such a change.
Fortunately, she still had a bit of rationality and knew that now was not the time to confront head-on. She had to find a way to get Huo Xilin back to her as soon as possible.
She bit her lip, showing an innocent and pitiful look, and said in a compromising tone: "Okay, then Brother Lin, you should have a good rest. If there is anything, you must tell me and don't let me worry, okay?"
Huo Xilin nodded, agreeing to Yan Xisui's request.
Yan Xisui burst into laughter. As long as Huo Xilin was still willing to pay attention to her, everything would still be possible.
Yan Xisui lowered her head and turned to leave. The look she shot towards Xu Qingsui was as if filled with poison, cruel and gloomy.
Xu Qingsui only felt a chill on her back. She looked at Yan Xisui's leaving back and was unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
For the first time, she felt murderous intent from a person.
"What's wrong?" Huo Xilin noticed Xu Qingsui's abnormality, so he asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Xu Qingsui suddenly came back to his senses, shook his head and replied: "I'm fine."
Huo Xilin guessed that it was because of Yan Xisui's appearance that Xu Qingsui thought too much. He gently held her hand and comforted her: "Don't worry, what happened between Yan Xisui and me is the past. You are my present and future."
Xu Qingsui stared at Huo Xilin in a daze and found that his eyes were so affectionate and sincere.
She moved her lips. She clearly had a lot of things to say and ask, but she couldn't.
Maybe it's because of fear, afraid that even if he asks, he won't get the answer he wants, and then how will their relationship end?
Xu Qingsui suddenly had a bad mentality. She couldn't control what would happen in the future, and she didn't have the final say in her current relationship. So she just lived every day peacefully, just treating it as a dream. While she was still dreaming, she would enjoy the beauty that the dream brought her. When she woke up from the dream one day, she would return to the real world that truly belonged to her.
As the saying goes, knowing that there is nothing you can do about it, just accept it as your fate.
Zhou Jing’s medicine was indeed very effective. After Xu Qingsui used it for a week, her legs didn’t hurt as much and she could even walk on the ground with difficulty.
Huo Xilin's snake venom has been removed and he has returned to work in the company in the past two days.
Aunt Wang pushed Xu Qingsui downstairs in the hospital to bask in the sun and saw Huo's mother coming to pick up Yan Xisui from the hospital.
When Mrs. Huo saw Yan Xisui's leg still in plaster, she was shocked but also a little worried: "Are you injured?"
Xu Qingsui wanted to stand up and greet them, but was stopped by Huo's mother: "Don't move, don't move. If you are injured, just sit down. What happened?"
"Hello, Mrs. Huo. I fell accidentally. It's nothing serious now. The doctor said that I can remove the plaster in a few days and walk again."
"You young people are too careless. No wonder Huo Xilin hasn't come back recently. One moment he has to take care of Xiaosui, the next he has to take care of you. He is really busy." Huo's mother sighed.
"Godmother, Brother Lin doesn't have time to take care of me. He has even been admitted to the hospital because of Miss Xu's injury." Yan Xisui on the side quickly covered her mouth with a panicked expression.
When Mrs. Huo heard this, her expression suddenly changed: "What did you say?"
"Godmother, I didn't say anything, I know nothing. Please don't ask me. Brother Lin will be angry if he knows." Yan Xisui said with embarrassment.
"Speak!" Huo Xilin is Huo's mother's lifeline. Nothing is more important than her son.
Under pressure, Yan Xisui pretended to look at Xu Qingsui cautiously, and then said helplessly: "Because Miss Xu's leg was injured, Brother Lin went to the uninhabited mountains and forests to collect herbs in order to treat her leg. As a result, he was bitten by a poisonous snake and almost died in it. He was finally rescued and lay in the hospital for a week."
After hearing this, Mother Huo was horrified and asked, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Yan Xisui supported Mother Huo and said aggrievedly: "Brother Lin won't let me say it..."
The look that Mrs. Huo gave Xu Qingsui changed from the previous friendly look to a gloomy and sharp one in an instant: "Ms. Xu, your legs are so precious, they are more important than my son's life!"
Xu Qingsui could understand why Huo's mother would be angry about this matter, because she herself felt guilty after knowing about it.
"Mrs. Huo, I'm sorry."
"What's the point of saying sorry? If you hadn't instigated me, my son wouldn't be so stupid. With his status and position, he can't get anything he wants. Why does he have to go into the mountains to collect herbs himself?"
Ever since she found out that Huo Xilin and Xu Qingsui were together, her son seemed like a different person.
At first she just thought it was because of Yan Xisui, so she didn't take Xu Qingsui seriously at all.
But now it seems that she has to re-examine this woman Xu Qingsui!
"Mrs. Huo, I understand your feelings. Mr. Huo was indeed bitten by a snake because of my affairs. I have an unshirkable responsibility, but it was not my instigation, and I would never let Mr. Huo take such a risk." Xu Qingsui explained calmly.
Mother Huo snorted coldly: "You mean my son volunteered?"
Xu Qingsui thought speechlessly that she could not give an answer to this question, because she herself did not know why Huo Xilin did that. It was not in line with his style of doing things, and it was even less in line with his IQ.
"Ms. Xu, sometimes you think too highly of yourself. You rely on your good looks and use all kinds of tricks. Only you know what you are doing. But I want to remind you that it is not easy to enter the Huo family. You'd better take good care of my son. From now on, if anything happens to him, I will be the first to find trouble with you!"
After saying this, Mrs. Huo left decisively with the support of Yan Xisui.
Yan Xisui raised the corner of her mouth. As long as her godmother was on her side and as long as she hated Xu Qingsui more and more, she would never be able to marry into the Huo family.
What good would it matter if they got the marriage certificate? For a wealthy and prominent family, a marriage that is not recognized by the elders and family members is simply meaningless.
"Madam, Mrs. Huo is just too worried about Mr. Huo's safety. She has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. You shouldn't take what she says to heart." Aunt Wang was afraid that Xu Qingsui would think too much, so she comforted her.
Xu Qingsui nodded: "Aunt Wang, I know."
