Chapter 270: Tiger Crown
Shi Yiheng looked at him angrily and said through gritted teeth, "Aren't you afraid that I'll tell Mu Zhen about that?!"
Huo Yunting's pupils shrank suddenly, and then he said coldly: "Even if you tell her, she won't fall in love with you, and you can't afford the consequences!"
After saying that, Huo Yunting let go of him and turned to leave.
Shi Yiheng stared at his back until his figure disappeared from his sight.
Back in the car, Huo Yunting's face was cold, and it took a long time before he started the car and left.
When Shi Yiheng said that he would tell Chi Muzhen about that incident, he suddenly felt panic in his heart, as if he was going to lose Chi Muzhen.
He and Chi Muzhen have been through so much, and he will never let go of her hand again.
Suddenly, he thought about the medical information Chi Muzhen had looked up. Could it be related to Shi Yiheng?!
He called Ke Ning and said coldly, "Go check why Shi Yiheng was hospitalized, and whether he and Chi Muzhen met during my business trip!"
Ke Ning was very fast. As soon as Huo Yunting returned to Elm Bay, a notification sounded in his mailbox.
After clicking and looking at it for a while, Huo Yunting's face turned extremely ugly.
Sure enough, his guess was correct. Chi Muzhen looked up those medical information just for Shi Yiheng!
If Chi Muzhen knew that Shi Yiheng was hospitalized to save her, she would never forgive herself.
Huo Yunting's eyes gradually turned cold, and he called Ke Ning.
"Find a doctor who's proficient in craniotomy, either here or abroad. As long as they can perform Shi Yiheng's surgery, bring them back, no matter how much it costs! ASAP!"
Ke Ning also knew that Shi Yiheng rushed into the fire to save Chi Muzhen, and he quickly said, "I'll go right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yunting opened the car door and got out. As soon as he entered, he saw Chi Muzhen sitting on the sofa in the living room watching a movie.
When she heard the door open, she asked without turning her head, "Where have you been?"
Huo Yunting paused while changing his shoes and whispered, "Something's going on at the company."
Chi Muzhen pursed her lips and said nothing more.
Huo Yunting walked over to sit beside her. Just as he was about to speak, he saw the screen of her mobile phone on the table light up. On it was a photo of him accompanying Chi Xuan to the hospital, and a line of eye-catching large characters: President Huo appeared at the scene of the car accident of the second daughter of the Chi family, suspected that their old love had rekindled!
The atmosphere was stagnant for a few seconds, and Huo Yunting's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
"Zhenzhen, please listen to my explanation..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chi Muzhen looked at him expressionlessly, "Is there anything else to explain? Explain that you went to see Chi Xuan? Or explain that you lied to me?"
Meeting the indifference in her eyes, Huo Yunting felt a pang of pain in his heart. He was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "It was indeed wrong of me to deceive you. I'm sorry. This time I went to see Chi Xuan to make it clear to her that I will not answer her calls or meet her again."
Chi Muzhen's expression did not change at all, and her tone was extremely calm. "Huo Yunting, do you believe what you said?"
"I'm telling the truth."
Chi Muzhen smiled, her eyes full of bitterness, "If it's true, why did you lie to me?"
"I'm afraid you'll be angry."
"Are you afraid that I'll be angry?! Then what have you been doing for the past six months? Every time you answer Chi Xuan's phone in front of me, don't you know that I mind? Every time you go to the hospital to see her, don't you know that I will be sad? You know everything, but you still go, because in your eyes, repaying the favor owed by the Huo family to Chi Xuan is more important than my feelings, isn't it?"
Facing Chi Muzhen's questioning, Huo Yunting's expression gradually turned ugly.
He held Chi Muzhen's shoulders, looked into her eyes and said seriously, "No, besides wanting to repay the favor, I also want to see your attitude towards me. I'm waiting for you to get jealous. In the past six months, if you had told me that you minded, I would have immediately drawn a clear line between me and Chi Xuan."
Chi Muzhen waved his hand away, and his eyes gradually turned cold.
"Isn't it your responsibility to draw a clear line between you and her? Why do you have to wait for me to say it? Can't you do it on your own?"
Huo Yunting pursed his lips and said in a low voice, "Because I'm not sure if you still have me in your heart."
Chi Muzhen was so angry that she laughed. She said sarcastically, "I don't care why you ran to Country F to save you? I don't care why you stood firmly by your side when you were slandered by Yang Yi? I don't care why you silently endured your relationship with Chi Xuan for half a year?!"
"Zhenzhen, I'm sorry!"
Chi Muzhen stood up, looked down at him, and said word by word: "If our relationship must be tested like this, I think we both need to think carefully about whether to continue."
Huo Yunting panicked and quickly reached out to grab Chi Muzhen's hand, but she quickly dodged him.
"The company has been busy these days, so I'll stay there first."
After saying that, she turned around and went upstairs to pack her things.
When he saw her leaving with her suitcase, Huo Yunting suddenly stood up and blocked her way.
"Zhenzhen, let's have a good talk. I don't want to have a cold war with you."
Chi Muzhen looked indifferent, "I'm not going into a cold war with you, I just want to calm down for a few days."
"You don't have to be calm in the company, it's the same here."
"Please move aside."
Huo Yunting stood at the door and refused to move. The two of them were deadlocked for a while. Chi Muzhen put down the suitcase, and impatience flashed in his eyes.
"What do you want?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Yunting suddenly held her hand.
Chi Muzhen frowned, tried to break free but failed, and simply didn't bother to care.
"Zhenzhen, I know I've disappointed you in the past six months, but I'm also afraid of losing you. Even though you're right next to me, I always feel like you're far away. I'm afraid one day you'll suddenly realize you don't love me and want to break up with me."
Chi Muzhen was silent for a while, then looked at Huo Yunting and said, "I never imagined that I would spend my whole life with you."
Huo Yunting's expression suddenly changed, "What do you mean?"
"We like each other right now, so we're together. If our relationship continues to grow, we might remarry. But if one day we no longer have feelings for each other, I'll also pull away. So let fate take us wherever it takes us. I won't firmly believe that we'll be together forever."
If she had assumed from the beginning that they would be together for life, if things didn't go as she wished, it might be difficult for her to get over it, and she would not let herself find herself in such a situation again.
"So... you're ready to leave me at any moment, so you don't care about me meeting Chi Xuan?"
Chi Muzhen was somewhat helpless. "You misunderstood. It's not that I don't care. It's just that I won't quarrel with you for this reason like before. After all, we have been through so much. I think you should know what to do and what not to do."
Huo Yunting was silent for a long time, then he let go of her hand and said slowly, "I don't know why, but after hearing you say that, I feel like you're even further away from me."
I feel even more sad...
