Chapter 272: Waste of Wax
After sending the message, Huo Yunting felt something was wrong and quickly added a sentence.
I'll pick you up!
After a few minutes, Chi Muzhen finally came back.
【good. 】
It was just one word, but Huo Yunting's heartbeat accelerated unconsciously, and he was more excited than when he made his first deal.
It was soon time to get off work in the evening. Huo Yunting asked the driver to give him the keys and drove to the downstairs of MY to wait for Chi Muzhen.
After waiting for more than half an hour, Chi Muzhen suddenly sent a message.
When will you arrive?
Huo Yunting immediately called her, "Zhenzhen, I'm downstairs now."
Chi Muzhen frowned and walked out while packing her things. "When did you arrive? Why didn't you tell me?"
"I arrived half an hour ago. I was afraid you were busy, so I planned to wait for you downstairs."
"Okay, I'm going to take the elevator. That's it for now."
Five minutes later, Chi Muzhen opened the car door and got in.
"Let's go."
Huo Yunting slowly started the car and merged into the traffic flow, his eyes fixed on the front, driving quietly.
Because we hadn't seen or contacted each other for a week, the atmosphere in the car was a little awkward for a moment.
"you……"
"today……"
They both spoke at the same time, looked at each other, and then shut up at the same time.
Huo Yunting's grip on the steering wheel gradually tightened, and he said, "You speak first."
"You came to me today, is there something you want to say?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to ask what you think about it?"
Chi Muzhen pursed her lips, "What do you think about this matter?"
"I don't want to break up."
As these words fell, the carriage fell into silence again.
Neither of them spoke again until they reached the restaurant door.
After entering the restaurant and ordering the dishes, Huo Yunting looked at Chi Muzhen.
"Zhenzhen, I really don't want to break up with you. I also know that I have done many things that have made you sad and disappointed in me. I hope you can give me another chance."
Chi Muzhen looked at him, "I know you dated Chi Xuan because she saved your grandmother and your mother, but I can't accept that she's trying to get involved in so many details of our relationship."
"sorry!"
"I didn't come here today just to hear you say sorry. I've been thinking a lot these past few days. I'm sure I still love you, but if you continue to date Chi Xuan, I don't know how long this love can last. When the day comes that my feelings for you are gone, I won't look back."
Huo Yunting's expression changed, "I won't let that day come!"
Chi Muzhen looked at her with seriousness in her eyes, "You said before that you would draw a clear line between you and her. I hope you can keep your word."
Huo Yunting held her hand and said, "I promise, I will repay her this favor in other ways in the future."
After the two reconciled, Chi Muzhen moved back to the villa.
However, Huo Yunting was still a little panicked. They were just in a relationship now, and Chi Muzhen could break up with him at any time.
Especially since he had kept the fact that he and Chi Muzhen hadn't gotten a divorce a secret, if she knew about it, she might really leave him in anger.
Huo Yunting thought for a long time and finally came up with a solution.
He decided to propose to Chi Muzhen!
If Chi Muzhen doesn't agree, he will continue to beg until the day she agrees!
Huo Yunting was a man of action. He immediately contacted Ke Ning and asked him to airlift Chi Muzhen's favorite top-grade champagne roses. He was going to propose to her.
Upon hearing this, Ke Ning was also a little excited, feeling that Huo Yunting had finally gotten the idea, and immediately called to order flowers.
On the other hand, Xu Ye had someone deliver the prepared Chinese medicine to MY every day.
After a while, Chen Tian couldn't help but tease Chi Muzhen, "I didn't expect Huo Yunting to be so considerate. He has someone boil Chinese medicine and send it to you every day. But I remember you just had a physical examination last month, and the results were all normal, weren't they? Could this be fertility medicine?!"
Chi Muzhen almost spit out the medicine and looked at her unhappily, "The doctor said I'm weak and this is medicine to replenish blood and qi."
Shen Tian glanced up and down, nodded thoughtfully and said: "Indeed, with your small body, I'm afraid you can't keep up with Huo Yunting's pace."
Chi Muzhen: "..."
After drinking the medicine, she looked at Shen Tian and said, "That Chinese medicine was made for me by a doctor friend of mine. It has nothing to do with Huo Yunting."
Shen Tian raised an eyebrow, "Such a caring doctor friend, can't he be a man?"
Chi Muzhen was speechless, "Is there any difference between men and women?"
"If it's a boy, Mr. Huo from your family will definitely be jealous if he knows."
"He wouldn't pay attention to such trivial matters."
Shen Tian smiled and said, "That's not necessarily true."
Chi Muzhen handed her the signed document and said, "Okay, go to work."
She didn't expect that Shen Tian's words would come true so soon.
When they returned to the villa in the evening, Chi Muzhen was surprised to see Huo Yunting had already prepared the dishes. "What day is it today? Why are you cooking in person?"
Huo Yunting silently poured her a bowl of black chicken soup and whispered, "How does it taste?"
Chi Muzhen took a sip and couldn't help but frowned, "Why does it smell like Chinese medicine?"
Huo Yunting smiled and said, "Black-bone chickens need to be cooked with Chinese herbs. This way the chicken soup will be more nutritious and more nourishing than pure Chinese herbs."
Hearing his sarcastic words, Chi Muzhen knew that Huo Yunting had found out that Xu Ye had someone send her Chinese medicine every day.
She put down the bowl and said with a headache: "Who told you?"
"It doesn't matter who told me this. What matters is that you're weak, so why did you ask Xu Ye to make medicine for you? Shouldn't your boyfriend do this?"
"Are you jealous?"
"Shouldn't I be jealous?"
Chi Muzhen choked for a moment, "No, I just happened to meet him when I went to the hospital last time. He said I had lost a lot of weight, and then he took my pulse and said that I was weak and needed to drink Chinese medicine to replenish my body, so he prescribed a medicine."
Huo Yunting looked at her coldly, "Then why didn't you take the prescription back? Instead, he made it for you every day? Xu Ye is so busy, how could he care so much about an insignificant patient?"
Chi Muzhen frowned. "I don't like what you said. Every patient is important, so why am I insignificant? Besides, he didn't make the medicine himself. It was made by the staff of his pharmacy."
"What's the difference? Why don't you tell me why Xu Ye treats you differently than others? Did you know each other before?"
Chi Muzhen didn't expect him to be so perceptive, and quickly said, "Didn't I know him when I treated your leg four years ago? And when grandma was poisoned before, I also asked him for help. Have you forgotten?"
"Isn't it strange that he, a miracle doctor, would just let you do whatever you want?"
Chi Muzhen's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly felt a little guilty.
"That's because he happens to be free, otherwise he would definitely ignore me."
Huo Yunting took a deep breath and spoke in a calm tone, "Zhenzhen, you seemed very familiar with him, like you'd known him for years. Did you really only get to know him four years ago when you were looking for someone to treat my leg?!"
