Chapter 409: Jewelry
Just as the driver was about to start the car, Xiao Muzhen quickly said, "No, I don't want to go to the hospital."
Huo Yunting frowned. "Your foot is sprained. If you don't go to the hospital for treatment, it may become more serious."
"I can handle it myself. I don't like hospitals."
Seeing the reluctance in Xiao Muzhen's eyes, Huo Yunting was silent for a few seconds and then said, "You don't have to go to the hospital, but I'll find a doctor to come to your home to check you out. If it's serious, you still have to go to the hospital."
Xiao Muzhen wanted to refuse, but Huo Yunting continued, "This is my bottom line. If you don't agree, we'll go to the hospital now."
"All right……"
When she returned to the villa gate, Xiao Muzhen originally planned to walk in by herself, but she didn't expect Huo Yunting to directly carry her into the villa.
The doctor was already waiting in the living room. After examining Xiao Muzhen's ankle, he said, "Mr. Huo, there's nothing serious. Just apply ice for a few days and it will be fine."
"Are there any precautions these days? Are there any dietary restrictions?"
Seeing Huo Yunting writing down every detail of the doctor's instructions, Xiao Muzhen's heartbeat couldn't help but quicken. He seemed... really worried about her.
After the doctor left, Huo Yunting followed the doctor's instructions, wrapped a piece of ice in a towel, walked up to Xiao Muzhen, and said in a deep voice, "I'll give you a cold compress."
Xiao Muzhen pursed her lips, lowered her eyes and said, "I'll do it myself, you go and do your work."
Huo Yunting placed the towel on the table and said as he rolled up his sleeves, "Nothing is more important than you."
After saying that, he squatted down in front of Xiao Muzhen and gently lifted up her twisted foot.
"ah!"
Xiao Muzhen screamed and subconsciously tried to retract her foot, but Huo Yunting held her calf to prevent her from retracting it.
"Really, I can do it myself..."
Thinking of the scene where he applied ice to her, Xiao Muzhen's face couldn't help but turn red.
As far as she could remember, she had never been so close to any man.
However, Huo Yunting ignored her and took off her shoes.
Her feet were as white and delicate as her legs, smooth as jade, but her ankles were swollen, completely destroying the beauty.
Huo Yunting's eyes deepened a little, and he whispered, "It may be a little painful at first, just bear with it for a while."
"Um."
He picked up the towel and gently placed it on Xiao Muzhen's ankle. She felt a cool sensation and pursed her lips. She didn't feel any pain, but the palm of Huo Yunting's hand that was pinching her foot was warm. As she felt the warmth, her heartbeat gradually got out of control.
She glanced at him secretly. He frowned and looked at her feet that were being iced. His eyes were cold and she didn't know what he was thinking.
"Mr. Huo...Mr. Huo, this ice compress isn't difficult...why don't I do it myself..."
If he continued to look at her feet like this, she was afraid her heart would beat faster and faster.
Huo Yunting raised his eyes to glance at her and whispered, "Just call me Yunting from now on."
Xiao Muzhen frowned, "But... I won't be used to it..."
"Then try to get used to it. That's how you used to call me."
Xiao Muzhen was silent for a while, but still couldn't help nodding and said, "Okay then."
"Now try to scream."
"Yun... Yun Ting..."
Huo Yunting smiled and said, "Yeah."
In the following time, Xiao Muzhen turned on his mobile phone and pretended not to care, but he was extremely tormented in his heart.
It was obvious that she didn't like Huo Yunting at the beginning, but now for some reason, her eyes would unconsciously fall on him, and her heart would beat faster because of some of his intimate actions.
Could she... be in love with Huo Yunting?!
Thinking of this possibility, Xiao Muzhen's face, which was originally a little flushed, turned pale in an instant.
She bit her lower lip. Becoming her old self was something she had always resisted.
If she lost her memory and fell in love with Huo Yunting again, and became Chi Muzhen three years ago, everything would repeat itself.
She lowered her eyes, her gaze calm.
Just as she was thinking about how to get Huo Yunting to leave, his cell phone suddenly rang.
After the call was connected, Huo Yunting's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly after hearing what was said on the other end. He said in a cold voice, "I'll be there soon."
Seeing his gloomy face, Xiao Muzhen quickly said: "If you are busy, go ahead and do it first. I can do the ice compress myself."
Huo Yunting didn't move. He put away his phone with a calm expression, "No matter how busy I am, I won't miss this moment."
After applying ice to Xiao Muzhen and carrying her back to the room, Huo Yunting left.
When Xiao Muzhen was the only one left in the bedroom, she immediately called Xie Fu.
"I think I've fallen in love with someone..."
"Huo Yunting?"
"How do you know?!"
Xie Fu chuckled softly, "When you said you wanted to be with Huo Yunting day and night for three months, I had a vague premonition, but from the tone of your voice, you don't seem too happy."
"Well, I don't want to fall in love with him again, and I don't want to make the same mistake again."
There was silence for a few seconds before Xie Fu slowly said, "Zhenzhen, when did you become so timid? When you were abroad before, you were so free and easy."
Xiao Muzhen pursed her lips. She didn't care about the things she had encountered abroad before, so of course she wouldn't get entangled with them.
"I just don't want to get hurt again."
"How do you know it's a re-injury? Three years have passed. You've changed a lot, and he's changed too. Maybe if we do it again, the result will be different."
After hearing what Xie Fu said, Xiao Muzhen felt even more upset.
"Forget it, I'll think about it myself."
"Well, I think you don't need to worry so much. Just follow your heart. Besides, didn't you tell me that he explained that matter to you three years ago? So, what are you worried about?"
"I understand. Go ahead and do your work."
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Muzhen threw the phone aside, feeling annoyed.
Does she really want to give herself and Huo Yunting another chance?
On the other side, when Huo Yunting rushed to the Huo headquarters, many partners were terminating their contracts. The scene was noisy, like a vegetable market.
Someone saw Huo Yunting and quickly said, "Boss Huo is here!"
The scene suddenly became quiet, and everyone turned to look at Huo Yunting.
Huo Yunting's eyes were devoid of warmth as he said coldly, "Why are you all suddenly uniting to terminate this contract? If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, I won't agree to terminate this contract."
Several minutes passed and no one spoke.
Although Huo Tianyi promised that he would let them cooperate with Jin Yue, they still couldn't help but feel scared when they saw Huo Yunting.
"I'm only giving you one chance. If you don't say it today, you won't have to mention the word terminating the contract again!"
As the words fell, someone finally spoke.
"Boss Huo, we plan to cooperate with Jin Yue. Jin Yue offers higher profits!"
