[Chapter 373: Not Qualified to Be the Young Mistress of the Huo Family]
Wen Qingbai saw what the medicine was, his eyes changed slightly, and he grabbed her slender wrist, "You took the emergency medicine? Don't you know that this kind of medicine is very harmful to your body?"
"If you had taken measures yesterday, I wouldn't have to take medicine." Guan Xiaoxiao spoke calmly.
Thinking of the madness of last night, Wen Qingbai's heart softened, and he said with some guilt: "I'm sorry, I don't have this thing at home."
If an adult man doesn't have any contraceptives at home, it means he doesn't bring women home to spend the night.
If Guan Xiaoxiao had heard this in the past, she would definitely be happy.
But she doesn't feel anything now.
"Xiaoxiao, you don't need to take medicine."
Wen Qingbai held her hand and sat on the sofa, holding her in his arms, looking at her with extremely gentle eyes, "Give birth to the child if you are pregnant. Anyway, our parents have long wanted to..."
"I won't give birth to a child for you." Guan Xiaoxiao interrupted him coldly, "I won't give birth to a child for someone who doesn't love me."
Wen Qingbai's body froze, "Xiaoxiao, do you think I don't love you?"
Guan Xiaoxiao pointed at the position of his heart and curled the corners of her mouth in self-mockery, "Ask yourself, do you love me? In your heart, everyone is more important than me, even Jiao Yafan, who ranks ahead of me."
"No." Wen Qingbai denied. He grabbed her hand and said seriously, "After last night, I have confirmed, Xiaoxiao, I love you."
Guan Xiaoxiao pulled back her hand, her eyes full of mockery, "Wen Qingbai, do you think I will believe you now? Last night it was just your possessiveness that was at work. You couldn't stand the fact that I would sleep with another man, so you just possessed me."
"no."
Wen Qingbai wanted to explain.
Guan Xiaoxiao had already stood up and walked towards the door. She said in a cold and calm voice, "I will tell my parents to cancel the engagement with you when I get home."
She took the door handle and opened it.
Jiao Yafan was about to knock on the door, but she didn't expect it to open suddenly. Her raised hand froze for a moment.
After seeing who opened the door, she was surprised and asked, "Guan Xiaoxiao, why are you at Qingbai's house?"
Just as she finished speaking, she noticed the marks on Guan Xiaoxiao's neck, which were dark red and clearly a kiss mark.
She widened her eyes and stared at the marks on Guan Xiaoxiao's neck.
Wen Qingbai walked behind Guan Xiaoxiao. He was wearing a white shirt with a few buttons undone, revealing his collarbone. The scratches on it were clearly reflected in Jiao Yafan's eyes.
Both of their mouths were bruised, which showed how fierce the fight was last night.
Jiao Yafan gritted his teeth secretly, suppressed his strong jealousy, and said with a forced smile: "Brother Qingbai, you and Xiaoxiao, you..."
"What's the matter with you coming here so early?" Wen Qingbai asked directly.
Jiao Yafan bit her lip and stretched out the thermos box in her hand. "Brother Qingbai, last time you were at my house you said that my chicken soup was delicious. I specially made a new one last night. I stewed it all night and wanted to send it to you to try."
Hearing this, Wen Qingbai subconsciously looked at Guan Xiaoxiao, afraid that she might have misunderstood something, and opened his thin lips to explain.
Before he could explain, Guan Xiaoxiao had already walked out of the house, "Then I won't bother you anymore."
Just then the elevator arrived and she walked in.
"Xiaoxiao, listen to my explanation!"
Wen Qingbai wanted to follow and explain, but Jiao Yafan grabbed his arm and said, "Brother Qingbai."
The elevator door closed.
"Why do you say ambiguous words in front of Xiaoxiao!" Wen Qingbai shook off Jiao Yafan's hand, looking angry.
Jiao Yafan's eyes suddenly turned red, and she said aggrievedly: "Brother Qingbai, what did I say wrong? You did drink chicken soup at my house."
Wen Qingbai said coldly: "You know Xiaoxiao is bothered by my relationship with you, but you still say such unclear things. Aren't you deliberately trying to make Xiaoxiao think too much? Yafan, you know where my bottom line is. If you do something like this again, don't blame me for not cherishing our friendship!"
"Brother Qingbai, in your eyes, Yafan is such a person..."
Jiao Yafan's eyes were filled with tears, and she choked up and said, "If I really wanted to pester you and destroy your relationship with Xiaoxiao, then why would I listen to you and obediently abort the child and lose my fertility?"
Speaking of the child, Wen Qingbai's stern expression eased a bit.
He did owe her for what happened in the past.
Jiao Yafan noticed the changes in his expression and cried at the right time, "Brother Qingbai, I do like you... But, I know you and Xiaoxiao are engaged, and you will get married and have children in the future, so I have always restrained myself and never thought of destroying your relationship."
She stuffed the insulated box into Wen Qingbai's hands and raised her hand to wipe away her tears. "If my presence affects your relationship, don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you. I will resign immediately, leave the imperial capital, and go back to my hometown."
"How can that be possible?" Wen Qingbai frowned slightly, "Didn't you say that your father has been urging you to go home and get married, just to sell you for a dowry?"
Jiao Yafan forced out a weak smile and said bitterly, "I think Xiaoxiao will feel relieved only if I get married. Brother Qingbai, I am willing to do anything for your happiness."
After saying that, she looked at Wen Qingbai reluctantly, then turned and left.
Wen Qingbai stood there with a complicated expression.
…
In the evening, the afterglow dyed a corner of the sky red, as beautiful as a silk ribbon.
Huo Jingze held his daughter and his wife's hand, and walked into the Huo family's old house with steady steps.
Entering the living room, Mrs. Huo smiled brightly when she saw her well-behaved great-granddaughter. "Yuanyuan, come to grandma quickly. I'll peel an apple for you to eat."
Lin Yuan walked happily into Mrs. Huo's arms, "The apples are so sweet, thank you, grandma!"
"Yuanyuan, come and taste the grapes that grandpa peeled."
Huo Qingyun waved and looked at his lovely granddaughter kindly.
Seeing that the elders of the Huo family loved Lin Yuan so much, Lin Yin was very happy and sat down with Huo Jingze.
Huo Qingyun glanced over and seemed to remember something, and said, "Today I met an old friend who suffers from gout, and the pain is tormenting him. Lin Yin, you are an excellent doctor and have helped many people in the past. Can you help him this time?"
Lin Yin was slightly stunned, pursed her lips and said: "Dad, I forgot everything after I lost my memory, including medical skills. I don't know how to do it now."
"You mean, you don't know anything now?" Huo Qingyun's face changed, and his tone was not as gentle as before.
Lin Yin looked at Huo Jingze nervously. The man held her hand, silently comforted her, and took the initiative to say: "She is my wife. Even if nothing happens, it doesn't matter. I can support her. You don't have to worry about it."
Huo Qingyun glared at his son.
It doesn't really matter whether one has the skills or not; what matters is one's social status. Lin Yin was first Ni Lu's apprentice, and later became a famous doctor. Everyone in the circle knows that the miracle doctor is the daughter-in-law of the Huo family.
So even if Lin Yin's original family was not good, he accepted it.
But now she has even lost her title of famous doctor, so how can she be qualified to be the young lady of the Huo family!
Huo Qingyun said unhappily: "What are you talking about? How can the young mistress of the Huo family accomplish nothing? Wouldn't it be a joke if you tell others about it?"
"Lin Yin is herself, not a tool to bring fame and benefits to the Huo family."
Huo Jingze saw through Huo Qingyun's plan at a glance, and his dark eyes sank. "If you say anything we don't like, I will take them away now and never step into the old house again."
His attitude of defending Lin Yin made Huo Qingyun so angry that his face turned blue, but what could he do? He couldn't continue arguing with his rebellious son.
If he really doesn't come to the old house, he won't even be able to see his lovely granddaughter.
"Hmph, just protect her. Sooner or later, she will be spoiled by you."
Huo Qingyun blew his beard and glared, then left the living room holding Lin Yuan.
"Xiaoyin, don't pay attention to your father, he is just an old antique." Mrs. Huo held Lin Yin's hand and smiled kindly, "Don't worry, Jingze and I are still here at home, and that old-fashioned old man is just talking."
Lin Yin smiled and said, "Yeah, I understand."
But she still wanted to pick up her medical skills again, not for fame or anything, but because she loved medicine.
