Chapter 115 Husband, Please Forgive Me
Qiao Xi was panicked: "Mr. Huo, you are injured."
"It's just a minor wound, it's okay." Huo Xingzhou's steps were steady and his voice was calm. He carried Qiao Xi all the way down the mountain and returned to the small bungalow where the doctors were temporarily staying.
Qiao Xi was placed steadily in the room. Her hands and feet felt weak as she looked at Huo Xingzhou, whose face was pale, and stammered.
One of the people traveling with him exclaimed, "Mr. Huo, you've lost a lot of blood!"
Qiao Xi's gaze fell on his arm, where there was a long cut and blood was flowing profusely.
The remaining male surgeon immediately said, "Doctor Qiao, you are dirty. Go wash up quickly. I will treat your husband's wound. Trust my skills."
Qiao Xi felt dizzy and her eyes were red.
Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "You go first."
She was pushed out by the crowd. The villagers stared at Huo Xingzhou nervously, fearing that something might happen to him.
Qiao Xi dragged her heavy feet to the public bathroom. She took off her dirty coat and found a cell phone in a waterproof bag in the compartment.
After the village lost signal, she used this to tell the time, but at this moment it suddenly lit up.
The screen flickered, it was Shu Xue's call.
The signal is coming!
The phone also automatically connected to the nearby network.
Qiao Xi answered the phone immediately. Shu Xue on the other end was extremely excited: "Qiao Xi, I finally got through to you! I've been trying my luck calling you every day these past few days, but I couldn't get through."
"What's the matter with you looking for me?" Qiao Xi asked in a hoarse voice.
"Big deal! Have you been online? Quickly search for the keywords Xingyue Foundation and Tianyuan Group announcement. Your husband is so handsome!" Shu Xue was extremely excited. "I told you Xu Xingluo was talking nonsense!"
Qiao Xi turned on the hands-free mode while searching for online news.
She saw the Tianyuan Group's announcement: "The nights are long, the stars and the moon accompany us. May you all chase the light and meet each other, and walk in the light."
This is the origin of the name of the Star-Moon Foundation.
In addition, medical subsidies have been added to care for the elderly and the poor, and to save lives and heal the wounded!
He said this was her original intention in practicing medicine.
Qiao Xi's throat was choked and sore, and her eyes were swollen.
"Qiao Xi, the purpose of establishing the medical subsidy is to cherish the elderly and the poor! There are so many words, but Huo insisted on using "cherish"! This is a subtle display of affection!"
Shu Xue picked at her words, her words sweeter than her own love life: "Your husband denied any connection with Xu Xingluo, shutting up those netizens and giving you face!"
"Even the lifetime spokesperson title is fake! Xu Xingluo didn't get any benefits this time, and many people even ridiculed her. But the internet has no memory, and as a ballet goddess, she still has a considerable number of die-hard fans."
Shu Xue sighed.
Qiao Xi read the clarification announcement again and again.
Tears welled up in her eyes and dripped onto her phone. She looked through her missed calls and found that many of them were from Mr. Huo.
It turned out that he had already made an explanation, and he wanted to explain it to her in person.
"Qiao Xi, are you moved to tears?" Shu Xue asked carefully.
Qiao Xi shook her head and said, "Shu Xue, I think I misunderstood him. He clearly..."
"It's easy for a woman to win over a man. Men are easy to please, so just say some nice things. As for..." Shu Xue thought of what the crazy woman Su Weiwei said and advised, "Don't believe what others say. You need to hear it from him in person."
Maybe those women have ulterior motives.
Even the interview with the Star-Moon Foundation can be said to be nonsense.
"Um."
Qiao Xi nodded heavily.
"Your free clinic will end tomorrow. I'll give you a welcome dinner when you come back!" Shu Xue suggested.
"Thank you."
"You're welcome. You...should learn more from the serious materials I gave you. Men all like that." Shu Xue said very quickly and hung up the phone.
Qiao Xi was stunned for a moment.
Are those things...really useful?
She bit her lip. Mr. Huo said last time that this thing was boring to watch alone, and it would be interesting with two people.
Does he like it too?
Her face flushed red, and she immediately washed up in the public bathroom and changed into clean clothes.
When she returned to the room, it was quiet and clean. The villagers who had been saved by Huo Xingzhou could not express their gratitude, so they could only clean up.
The man sat on the bed with his upper body exposed. His right arm was wrapped in gauze, oozing faint blood. The young male doctor gave him the final touches, tying a bow.
Turning to see Qiao Xi, he said, "Doctor Qiao, the wound has been treated, but it may leave a scar. The task of calming the patient's emotions is now left to you. The signal has been restored, and I'm going to call my girlfriend."
He teased, took his tools and left.
As soon as the door was closed, the room became deserted.
Qiao Xi moved her steps, walked to the bedside and said softly, "Mr. Huo, I'm sorry."
"What are you sorry for?" Huo Xingzhou asked casually.
The attitude looked extremely cold and hurtful.
Qiao Xi's heart tightened, and she blurted out with bitterness: "It's my fault. I hurt you."
"That's all?" he asked dissatisfiedly.
"Intentionally...having a cold war with you."
"So you knew it was a cold war?" His eyes seemed to be filled with tiny ice crystals, as if they were inviolable.
Qiao Xi felt extremely guilty, her eyes red as she said, "I saw the clarification online. I'm sorry."
It turns out that I felt guilty because I saw it.
Huo Xingzhou sneered, and seeing her pitiful appearance, he felt distressed. He reached out and pinched her red lips and said, "They say a dead duck's mouth is tough, why are you so soft?"
Say it with envy, say it with jealousy.
Is it that difficult?
His fingertips rubbed her red lips vigorously, like a punishment. His kneading of her plump lips made them even more charming, red, swollen and soft.
Qiao Xi felt pain and opened her mouth slightly.
"Say a few nice words to her first, and I might consider letting bygones be bygones." He let go and looked at her leisurely.
Qiao Xi bit her teeth lightly. Shu Xue said that men are easy to coax, so she should say a few more nice words.
"Mr. Huo, I was wrong. Please forgive me. I won't do it again next time." She pleaded softly.
It's not easy for a little old-fashioned girl like her to act like a spoiled brat.
"That's all?" Huo Xingzhou said contemptuously, "Qiao Xi, you're too insincere. This is the worst apology a stranger can give you, not to mention that you and I are husband and wife."
The word "husband and wife" came out of his mouth as if it were covered with honey.
Qiao Xi licked her swollen red lips and called out embarrassedly, "Husband..."
She remembered that Mr. Huo liked her to call him that.
"Hubby, I shouldn't have been in a cold war with you." She said softly, "Please forgive me. At the very least..."
"What else can you do?" Huo Xingzhou's heart softened. He just wanted to embarrass her with a bad taste. He wanted to see what else this old-fashioned little girl could say that would make her daydream.
Qiao Xi's pretty face flushed, and she leaned forward and boldly kissed the corner of his lips.
She whispered, "I can watch that with you."
