"Thanks."
This time, he said thank you.
Tang Yaoyao was already asleep.
Huo Linfeng gazed at her stunningly beautiful face, his prominent Adam's apple bobbing as he approached her, standing inches away from her.
He kept wondering what his fiancée would look like.
Does she look like her eldest brother, who is aloof and serious? Or like her second brother, who is charmingly handsome? Or like Aunt Qiao, who is uniquely beautiful?
Or perhaps, like Uncle Fu, with a captivatingly wicked beauty and a cold, aloof demeanor.
He thought and thought, hoped and hoped, and finally his little fiancée was born.
Unfortunately, he never got to see her sweet and innocent appearance.
Later, he saw her on Aunt Qiao's phone.
It turns out that my fiancée looks like this; she's not a copy of anyone, she's one of a kind.
This feeling has continued to this day.
His breathing became heavy, his eyes were dry and sore, and he closed them to ease the deep sorrow in his heart.
He knelt down and whispered in her ear with the tenderness of a lifetime of waiting: "I'm sorry, Grape, I'm too late."
That's why you'll miss it.
If he had appeared sooner, perhaps she would still be his grape, his fiancée.
After that, he got up and distanced himself from her.
I tried my best to suppress my obsession with her, and sat down opposite her, waiting for her sleepwalking episode to begin.
For any patient with sleepwalking disorder, taking sleeping pills will trigger their symptoms, making them even more severe than when they are sleepwalking normally.
He waited for a long time.
An hour passed, and Huo Wan was asleep in the lounge, but Tang Yaoyao showed no reaction.
She slept soundly, as if she were having a sweet dream.
At this moment, Huo Linfeng's emotions grew increasingly intense.
This was completely different from what he had expected.
How can a person with severe sleepwalking disorder not react at all after taking sleeping pills and falling asleep?
He worried that he had taken the wrong medicine, so he went back to his desk. It was indeed a sleeping pill, and he recalled the ingredients.
Not too much, not too little, just right.
Logically speaking, such a situation should not occur.
Thinking of this, he returned to the sofa and stood in front of her, his tall and imposing shadow looming over her.
His handsome brows furrowed slightly.
He was quite certain that Grape did not have sleepwalking.
If that's not the case, why would you say she injured Fu Jincheng while sleepwalking?
This is completely unfounded.
Looking at her delicate and beautiful face, he couldn't help but think of a very unbelievable reason.
She deliberately stabbed Fu Jincheng, but in order not to disappoint everyone, she lied and claimed to have sleepwalking.
This idea was rejected by him as soon as it came out.
Because if that were the case, she would never have come to her for treatment.
Taking a deep breath, another possibility came to mind.
The person who actually hurt Fu Jincheng was someone else, and Grape was just a scapegoat.
Who could this be?
Just as she was lost in thought, Tang Yaoyao woke up.
She looked at the ceiling, still the same color she had seen when she fell asleep. The chandelier in the room was beautiful, like scattered diamonds.
She rubbed her temples; they ached slightly, and she felt a little dizzy.
"woke up."
Tang Yaoyao turned to look at him: "Um, Mr. Huo, is my condition serious?"
She stared intently into his star-like pupils, awaiting his answer.
Are you sure you have sleepwalking disorder?
Upon hearing this, Tang Yaoyao understood that he had already investigated her condition and replied, "I'm not sure."
Huo Linfeng said with absolute certainty, "Fu Jincheng, you didn't hurt him."
She nodded again, without hiding anything from him.
"My second brother was definitely not injured by me."
Huo Linfeng was not surprised to hear this, because he had always trusted his own judgment. He sat down opposite her and asked in a gentle voice, "Is there something you need my help with?"
really.
Huo Linfeng was clever; nothing she did could escape his notice.
He nodded: "Yes, I've thought about this a lot, and perhaps only you can help me."
Huo Linfeng did not refuse: "Go ahead."
Tang Yaoyao then said, "Help me secretly investigate someone."
"who?"
Tang Yaoyao lowered her voice, a hint of danger gleaming in her fox-like eyes: "My adoptive father's biological daughter, Tang Yujiao."
She fiddled with her fingers, and the light in her eyes gradually turned cold.
I have a feeling that she is definitely involved in this matter.
Tang Yaoyao withdrew her cold expression, looked up at him, and said sincerely, "Your mother is the police chief. If you want to investigate her secretly, you have many more ways than we do. I don't want to alert her."
"You believe that Tang Yujiao was the one who hurt Second Brother?"
Tang Yaoyao nodded again: "I have this suspicion, but I'm not entirely sure and need to verify it further."
"I can help you."
Hearing this, Tang Yaoyao breathed a sigh of relief. With his help, if Tang Yujiao was really involved in this matter, she would have nowhere to hide.
"I also hope that you can tell your sister the truth about this matter."
Huo Wan must know very well what is more important and what is less important, and she would never do anything wrong. After all, the person who was injured was her second brother, and also the person she had kept in her heart until now.
Huo Linfeng was somewhat surprised, and his gentle eyes flickered: "You seem to really like my sister."
Tang Yaoyao rarely showed a faint smile, but she raised her lips and asked, "Mr. Huo, do you believe in predestined relationships across lifetimes?"
Huo Linfeng listened with a sense of unfamiliarity, which was indeed hard to believe for a medical researcher like himself.
Tang Yaoyao didn't insist. As long as she knew in her heart that he was her benefactor from her past life, that was enough.
She moved her lips slightly, her voice gentle: "I don't know how to say it, but I have a feeling that Huo Wan and I must have known each other in a past life, and I don't want her to have any prejudice against me."
Huo Linfeng nodded: "Mm."
Tang Yaoyao smiled, revealing two charming dimples, looking incredibly sweet.
Huo Linfeng stared at her, momentarily lost in thought.
"I have to go now."
Huo Linfeng stood up immediately, his voice still gentle: "I'll take you."
Tang Yaoyao waved her hand: "No need, Jiang Ci is waiting for me outside."
Huo Linfeng nodded, concealing the disappointment in his eyes: "Okay."
She dared not look at him any longer, afraid that she might accidentally reveal the shocking details of her past life: "I'll be going now, Mr. Huo. Thank you for today. I'll leave the rest to you."
"If you don't mind, you can call me by my name."
Even if they are no longer engaged, they don't want to be so distant from each other.
Tang Yaoyao nodded: "Mm."
As she left, she glanced at Huo Wan in the next lounge and felt a surge of satisfaction.
Yunluo, that will be another day.
