This face is amazing. He has seen the exact same face before, but it feels completely different.
He had been curious about the other identical face, but that was all.
I felt no pity whatsoever.
He found the face before him to be incredibly vivid, displaying a range of emotions from joy to anger to sorrow.
Noticing that Jian Yu's breathing had become heavier, Huo Qizhen leaned over to tuck the blanket down for her. Just then, Jian Yu turned over and pinned one of Huo Qizhen's hands under her chin.
Huo Qizhen felt that Jian Yu's skin was very hot, completely different from her previous temperature.
Even Jianyu's lips were dry and chapped, despite the humidifier being on in the room.
Huo Qizhen reached out and touched it; it was a little prickly. Just as he was about to pull his hand back to pour water, Jian Yu suddenly opened her mouth and bit his finger.
He even took a sip.
After noticing the taste was off, he frowned and muttered something.
water?
Huo Qizhen suddenly realized that Jian Yu was thirsty and had subconsciously reached for something near his mouth.
"elder brother?"
Huo Qizhen turned around.
Huo Tingzhen was staring at him with displeasure.
Huo Qizhen, "What are you doing?"
Huo Tingzhen looked at him with disdain, "What do I need to ask you?"
Huo Qizhen: "What can I do?"
Huo Tingzhen almost rolled her eyes. "What do you think? Jian Yu is sick, and you still can't resist taking advantage of her. I never knew you were this kind of person."
"What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Did I say something wrong? What are you doing holding Jian Yu's face in your hands? And your index finger?"
Huo Qizhen's expression remained unchanged as he gently withdrew his hand, saying, "Stop talking nonsense."
Nonsense?
Huo Tingzhen rolled her eyes now. "You dare to do it but not admit it!"
Huo Qizhen ignored her and started pouring water for Jian Yu.
The water was just the right temperature, around 40 degrees Celsius. I put a straw in the cup and gently brought it to Jian Yu's lips.
Jian Yu subconsciously bit down on it and started sucking. In no time, she had drunk more than half of it.
Upon noticing that Jian Yu had stopped, Huo Qizhen gently retracted the straw.
He wiped Jian Yu's mouth with a tissue before putting the blanket on the table.
When I turned around, I found Huo Tingzhen looking dazed.
What are you doing standing there?
Huo Tingzhen then came to her senses and exclaimed with admiration, "Brother! How come I never knew you had such a talent for taking care of people?"
Are you making fun of me?
Huo Tingzhen shook her head. "No, I'm serious."
Would you like some soup?
"I won't drink it! You didn't buy it for me."
"I bought too much; Jianyu can't finish it all."
"Oh? Jian Yu couldn't finish it, so you're willing to give it to me."
Huo Qizhen flicked Huo Tingzhen's head with his finger, "Didn't I give you enough good stuff? You're even arguing over a little drink."
Huo Tingzhen covered her forehead and took a step back. "You used to always put me first. Sure enough, men can change."
Huo Qizhen bent his finger again, and Huo Tingzhen immediately took a few steps back.
"I've looked at the books Jian Yu has been interested in lately, and the short videos she's liked. None of them are related to relationships. You're in for a tough time!"
Huo Qizhen spoke after a long while, "Jian Yu's twin sister is quite quick to understand things!"
She declared several years ago that she would become Yan Zhuo's future wife.
Isn't it said that twins have similar ways of thinking?
Why has Jian Yu never shown any intention of dating?
"What? Are you envious?"
Huo Qizhen nodded, "Yes."
Huo Tingzhen asked the question casually, but he didn't expect Huo Qizhen to actually answer it.
In that case, she felt too embarrassed to tease Huo Qizhen anymore.
"Actually, this is for the best. At least Jian Yu hasn't fallen for anyone else, otherwise your future would be even more worrying."
"You've already said that."
"Then listen to it again."
"I'd rather hear something else."
"It's very difficult right now."
"......"
Huo Tingzhen looked his brother up and down and said, "You! Jian Yu finally called you, and you didn't even hear it because your phone was on silent."
Huo Qizhen didn't feel regretful. Jian Yu was asking Yan Shi about the reason for the dispute between his cousin Huang Ling and Huang Ruo.
He didn't think he had done anything wrong to the Huang family father and daughter, but he couldn't say it to Jian Yu.
He was afraid that Jian Yu would think he was ruthless.
Although Huo Tingzhen repeatedly told him that Jian Yu had known all along and had never accused him, he still chose to avoid the topic.
Do you think Jian Yu was ruthless in what he did to the Yu family?
Huo Qizhen shook his head, "Jian Yu and her family are on opposite sides, it's a matter of life and death for them. Jian Yu can't be soft-hearted, and she shouldn't be soft-hearted, otherwise she will end up like Qi Yuexi today."
Mentioning Qi Yuexi, Huo Tingzhen felt a hint of schadenfreude. "Although it's not honorable to mock someone who's seriously ill, I still think she deserved it. If she hadn't brought this upon herself, how could she have been arrested? When she framed Jian Yu, she must have considered the worst possible outcome, but she showed no mercy whatsoever. If Jian Yu hadn't found evidence to prove his innocence, he would have already lost his freedom. I thought Qi Yuexi was so capable? But after being exposed, she became seriously ill from fright and developed acute leukemia. For this outcome, I can only say she deserved it!"
Speaking of Qi Yuexi's illness, Huo Tingzhen recalled something, "Yu Yao sought Yan Zhuo's help many times for Qi Yuexi's sake. Although Yan Zhuo was reluctant to see her, he still did his best to find treatments for her. In addition, the Qi family helped her find many experts. The Yan and Qi families deserve much credit for the rapid control of Qi Yuexi's condition. Before Jian Yu ran away from home, she was sick and hospitalized many times. How come the Yu and Qi families didn't care about her even once?"
QQ---
The bodyguard knocked and entered, "Young Master, Young Miss, Mr. Yan Zhuo has arrived."
Huo Qizhen gestured for someone to come in.
Yan Zhuo walked in carrying a bouquet of flowers.
Huo Tingzhen raised an eyebrow. "What brings you here?"
Yan Zhuo said, "The teacher who just came to see me is Jian Yu's attending physician. We were talking when the nurse called him over, and that's how I found out."
"What do you want with him? To treat your patient?"
"almost."
Huo Tingzhen thought with a hint of malice: I wonder which unlucky patient it is?
It would be even better if it were Qi Yuexi.
"Did you ask for Qi Yuexi?"
"no."
Huo Tingzhen was visibly disappointed upon hearing this. "I knew it."
Yan Zhuo found it somewhat amusing that she expressed her emotions so openly. "However, it still has something to do with Jian Yu."
Who is it?
"Yu Ze!"
"What's wrong with him?"
“I had a kidney transplant before, and I inexplicably experienced rejection. The medication didn’t help much. Now the situation is quite bad. My teacher had a similar experience before, so I came to ask him for advice.”
Huo Tingzhen instantly perked up. "How bad is it?"
Yan Zhuo, “…”
Don't be so gloating.
"What? You're still not telling me? Oh dear! I just remembered that I ran into Kuang Mei yesterday, and she asked me about you. Should I call her over?"
Yan Zhuo's lips twitched unconsciously, "Don't..."
Huo Tingzhen ignored him and actually started searching for phone numbers.
Yan Zhuo was anxious and blurted out, "Yu Ze has already been admitted to the ICU, and I'm afraid he won't last more than a few days."
