Chapter 79 Qiao Xi, Mom Regrets
Huo Jiancheng's voice came from outside the room: "Xingzhou, are you asleep? I want to talk to you."
Huo Xingzhou opened the door, saw him and said, "Qiao Xi has fallen asleep, let's talk outside."
He closed the door gently.
Huo Jiancheng's face looked unnatural, and he asked hesitantly, "How is Qiao Xi's injury?"
"Just tell me what you have to say."
He has a sparse brow and a low voice.
"Hanging the boat." Huo Jiancheng felt bad, "I was thinking of your grandfather..."
"He's not my grandfather anymore." Huo Xingzhou saw clearly, "I know you've been going to the hospital a lot recently. It's your business if you want to be filial."
Huo Jiancheng rubbed his hands, feeling unsure. "Your grandfather is suffering from illness at such an old age, which is quite pitiful. He has been discharged from the hospital tonight. Your uncle's family only cares about the shares he holds."
He wiped his face and said, "Xingzhou, he is... my biological father after all. He treated our second wife so harshly back then because my birth caused my mother's death in childbirth. If you want to blame someone, blame me."
He is a good man, kind-hearted and filial.
"So are you going to ask Qiao Xi to help him heal his illness? Qiao Xi is a very soft-hearted person, don't take advantage of her kindness."
If the eldest wife of the Huo family begged her, she could just refuse.
But if Huo Jiancheng asked her for help, she would be in a difficult position.
"You kid..." Huo Jiancheng sighed and said, "Why are you so angry?"
"I won't stop you from fulfilling your filial duty, but don't take Qiao Xi with you."
"Xingzhou! Your grandfather has already realized his mistake, and he really wants to apologize to you in person. I know you are a sentimental child. If you were truly heartless, you wouldn't be thinking about the Xu family's kindness ten years ago, and also about the car accident..."
"dad!"
Huo Xingzhou interrupted him and said, "It's getting late. I'll let Lao Chen take you home."
Huo Jiancheng saw that his handsome face was resolute and full of loss.
It's no use begging him.
He glanced at the closed door. Xingzhou was right. Qiao Xi was a very soft-hearted person.
He took a deep breath and said, "Then I'll go back first."
This night.
The Internet has stirred up one storm after another.
Most of those who insulted Qiao Xi deleted their previous comments and left a simple "I'm sorry." Many of Qiao Xi's patients also came forward to say how good she was.
Ma Hongwen, vice president of the Chinese Medicine Association, was suspended and the association's announcement was deleted.
Wang Dafu's crimes were made public and his family was severely criticized.
Even Zhao Yuzhen was exposed for abandoning her daughter and marrying into a wealthy family. Her interview was edited and repeatedly criticized.
"Ms. Zhao must be deeply regretful for abandoning such an outstanding daughter."
"That's a disciple of a traditional Chinese medicine doctor! I heard that Ms. Zhao has been seeking medical advice and medicine, hoping to give birth to a son for the rich man."
This heated discussion has been ongoing.
…
the next day.
Early in the morning, Cheng Han finished acupuncture for Qiao Xi, and Aunt Qian prepared a sumptuous breakfast.
After finishing breakfast, Cheng Han said to the couple, "I have to go out to meet an old friend today and won't be back for a while."
Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "Then I'll arrange for Lao Chen to follow you."
"Need not."
Cheng Han waved his hand.
Huo Xingzhou did not force him, but only reminded him to be careful.
Many people were coming here just for Cheng Han's fame, and the entrance to the villa was suddenly filled with all kinds of expensive gifts. Aunt Qian strongly requested the security guards not to let anyone in, and only then did they control the situation.
What’s even funnier is that the security room is also filled with gifts.
Those people are too enthusiastic.
"Call me if you have any problem." Qiao Xi said softly.
"I know Haicheng better than you do, I won't get lost."
Cheng Han thought she was nagging, so he took his things and went out.
Huo Xingzhou looked at her with a faint smile on his face. He scratched her nose with his fingertips and said, "Little housekeeper."
Qiao Xi's pretty face flushed: "I'm not."
"So do you want to be the housekeeper?" Huo Xingzhou looked at her with a dim gaze.
Qiao Xi pursed her lips, feeling shy inside.
Aunt Qian covered her mouth and smiled when she saw how close they were.
"Master, Madam, please take your time enjoying your breakfast. I'll go take out the trash." She went out with two bags of trash, and soon there were screams of fear.
"Oh my god, that scared me."
Aunt Qian put down the garbage and walked home.
Qiao Xi frowned slightly and asked, "Aunt Qian, what happened?"
Aunt Qian said quickly, "Mr. Cheng's path is... blocked. Your mother is here."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xi stood up and walked out quickly, with Huo Xingzhou following behind her.
Outside the villa.
Zhao Yuzhen, with a bruised face and disheveled hair, knelt before Cheng Han and cried, "Uncle Cheng, my mother-in-law and you are good friends. I haven't been back to see Qiao Xi for all these years, and I have my reasons. In this world, it's not easy for a remarried woman to have a good life."
She cried miserably.
"Look at all the injuries I have. They were all caused by the Su family."
Zhao Yuzhen has a pretty face, and her crying is even more contagious.
Cheng Han said coldly, "No matter how bad your life is, it has nothing to do with Qiao girl. Why do you hurt her again and again?"
Zhao Yuzhen covered her heart and cried bitterly: "I already know I was wrong, and I will definitely make it up to Qiao Xi in the future."
After hearing her words, Qiao Xi slowly approached.
She asked, "Are you making it up to me because you know Grandpa Cheng's identity?"
"No! Xixi, Mommy really knows she was wrong!"
Qiao Xi felt very uncomfortable when she saw her kneeling.
But I can't forgive her easily.
"Is the Su family not good to you? Didn't you say that Su Weiwei is your daughter?" Qiao Xi asked coldly.
"They beat and scolded me," Zhao Yuzhen cried, "Su Heng has a woman outside."
So pitiful.
But there must be something hateful about a pitiful person.
Qiao Xi said with a hardened heart: "You severed the mother-daughter relationship with me in public. We are no longer mother and daughter."
The corners of her eyes were slightly red, and there was a lot of resentment in her heart as she looked at her.
"Girl Qiao." Cheng Han called out, "You and Xingzhou go out first. I'll take care of this."
Cheng Han made the decision for her.
He knew Qiao Xi's character very well. She couldn't just stand by and watch, or accept and forgive.
"Come in."
Cheng Han said to Zhao Yuzhen.
Zhao Yuzhen was ecstatic and followed him in.
She didn't even look at Qiao Xi, and Qiao Xi's heart became even colder.
Huo Xingzhou put his arm around her shoulders and pressed his hot lips against her cheek: "Little Miracle Doctor, I'll take you out to vent your anger."
Qiao Xi turned her head slightly, and his kiss fell on the corner of her lips.
"Mr. Huo..."
"Don't worry about people who are not worth it."
Huo Xingzhou put his arm around her wrist, opened the car door and let her get in.
"Yeah." Qiao Xi nodded, her eyes full of warmth as she looked at him.
In the living room of the small villa.
Cheng Han looked at the embarrassed Zhao Yuzhen and said slowly: "I can give you a health-preserving recipe, but you must agree to one condition of mine."
