Chapter 449: Two-faced
He picked up the phone, looked at Xiao Muzhen and said, "I'm going to answer a call."
"good."
After entering the study, Huo Yunting answered the phone, "What's up?"
"Master, the master suddenly fainted and is on the way to the hospital. Please come quickly!"
Huo Yunting frowned and was about to refuse, but suddenly thought of something and said coldly, "Which hospital? I'll be there right away!"
After hanging up the phone, Huo Yunting quickly walked to the restaurant, lowered his eyes to look at Xiao Muzhen and said, "Zhenzhen, I have something urgent to do. I'll ask the nanny to come and take care of you later."
Xiao Muzhen shook his head and said, "No, I'm fine. Go and get busy."
Huo Yunting lowered his head and placed a kiss on her forehead, whispering, "I'll be back soon."
"good."
It was half an hour later that Huo Yunting drove to the hospital.
As soon as I walked into the ward, I saw Su Baitian sitting on the hospital bed chatting with Guo Zhenzhen. His face was rosy and he didn't look unwell at all.
Su Baitian glanced at Huo Yunting out of the corner of his eye and turned to look at him.
"If you had come a little later, I could have been discharged from the hospital."
Huo Yunting looked indifferent. "Since you have nothing to do, I will go back first."
As he turned to leave, Su Baitian was so angry that he blew his beard and glared at him, shouting angrily, "Stop right there!"
This unfilial son, I don’t know who he inherited his bad temper from!
"Do you have anything else to say?" Huo Yunting turned his head and looked at him indifferently, saying coldly.
"Look, Zhenzhen came all the way to see me. As my son, you have an obligation to send her back!"
Huo Yunting's eyes flashed with sarcasm, and he spoke word by word, "I think your fainting today was fake, but you really want to be a pimp, right?"
Guo Zhenzhen's face suddenly turned pale, and her hands hanging by her side unconsciously clenched tightly.
She liked Huo Yunting so much, but the other party actually described her as that kind of person!
Su Baitian's expression suddenly turned cold, "How can you say that?!"
There was no fear in Huo Yunting's eyes as he looked at him coldly.
"Mr. Su, I hope you don't forget that I agreed to return to the Su family, but I didn't give you control of my entire life."
"you!"
Su Baitian pointed at him, feeling his heart ache with anger, "Get out! Get out now! I don't want to see you again!"
Huo Yunting turned around and left without any hesitation.
Seeing that he really left as he said, Su Baitian became even angrier.
"This rebellious son is really making me mad!"
Guo Zhenzhen's face looked grim, but she still managed a forced smile.
"Uncle Su, Yun Ting is just that kind of person. I know he has no ill intentions, so I won't take it to heart."
Su Baitian looked at Guo Zhenzhen. Seeing how considerate she was, he instantly had a better impression of her and became more convinced that Huo Yunting should be with such a lady from a noble family.
"Zhenzhen, don't worry, I've decided you're my daughter-in-law for the rest of my life, and I'll definitely find a way to get that brat to marry you!"
Hearing this, Guo Zhenzhen's face lit up with joy, and she quickly lowered her head shyly, "Uncle Su, thank you for your help!"
"What trouble? Your father and I are good friends. I've long considered you half my daughter. It's a blessing for him that you like that brat. He actually refuses to agree. He's simply blinded by greed!"
When the housekeeper heard Su Baitian say this about Huo Yunting, he couldn't help but frown. Just as he was about to speak, Guo Zhenzhen spoke.
"Uncle Su, actually this is not his fault. I was too anxious. I will spend more time with Yun Ting and let him feel my good side."
Su Baitian nodded with satisfaction and said slowly, "Sincerity is the key to success. Uncle Su believes that you will succeed. That's how I won over his mother."
When mentioning Huo Pingting, a hint of nostalgia flashed in Su Baitian's eyes.
If she were still alive now, perhaps he would have been forgiven by her and the two of them would be living happily together now.
Guo Zhenzhen chatted with Su Baitian for a while before getting up and leaving.
When only Su Baitian and the housekeeper were left in the ward, the housekeeper finally couldn't help but say, "Master, you shouldn't have treated the young master like that in front of Miss Guo, and you shouldn't have promised Miss Guo that you would let her be with the young master."
Su Baitian sneered, "If I don't care about him, he will definitely continue to pester Xiao Muzhen. That woman is not worthy of him at all!"
"No matter what, Miss Xiao is still a member of the Xiao family, and she is the one the young master likes. You and the young master haven't seen each other for so many years, and there is no emotional foundation to begin with. If you forcefully expose them now, I'm afraid the young master will hate you."
"Even if he hates me now, he will realize in the future that all I do is good for him!"
Seeing that the housekeeper was still trying to persuade him, Su Baitian said unhappily, "Alright, stop talking. I won't change my mind. The mistress of the Su family must be a woman of status and position worthy of the Su family!"
As for Xiao Muzhen, she is just the adopted daughter of the Xiao family. In the future, the Xiao family will not give her any of its property. She is just a useless woman.
This kind of woman is fine to play with, but if you really stay with her for the rest of your life, she will just be a burden to Huo Yunting!
After leaving the hospital, Huo Yunting went straight back to the villa.
The TV in the living room was on, and Xiao Muzhen was lying on the sofa, asleep with a thin blanket covering her.
Huo Yunting's cold eyes suddenly became gentle. He tiptoed to the sofa, squatted beside her, and gently picked her up.
Xiao Muzhen was a light sleeper. When he realized someone was holding him up, he slowly opened his eyes.
When she met Huo Yunting's gentle eyes, the haziness in her eyes gradually turned into clarity.
"Have you dealt with the matter?"
"Well, I'll carry you upstairs to sleep. You'll easily catch a cold if you sleep here."
"No, I just fell asleep because I was bored. Now I'm not sleepy anymore. I'll go to work after lunch."
Huo Yunting couldn't help but frowned upon hearing this, and said unhappily, "No! You should just rest at home today. Not going to work for a day won't affect your work, and I don't want you to be too tired."
"I'm fine now."
Huo Yunting looked down at her, his eyes as dark as indissoluble ink. "Since you're okay, let's do what we did last night again."
Xiao Muzhen's face suddenly flushed red, and then she directly refused, "I don't want it... I'm still feeling uncomfortable now!"
Thinking that he could only remember a few fragments of what happened last night and didn't feel comfortable at all, Xiao Muzhen subconsciously resisted this matter.
"If you're not feeling well, don't force yourself to go to work. I can support you even if you don't work."
Xiao Muzhen was silent for a few seconds, then said coldly, "I don't like you saying you're supporting me. Don't say that again."
She has the ability to earn money on her own, and she is not the kind of woman who likes to depend on others.
Huo Yunting was somewhat helpless. "How about I let you manage all my money?"
"No, I'm not interested in your money, put me down first!"
Huo Yunting turned around, carried her upstairs, and whispered, "Rest well today, or you won't be able to recover well. If a colleague asks you why you walk so strangely at work, how will you answer?"
