Chapter 172 Qiao Xi, will you cheat on your husband?
Qiao Xi blinked slowly.
She didn't understand how the man could hold back at such a critical moment.
Her eyes were filled with moisture, and her voice was soft: "What's the account?"
They have no unsettled accounts!
"Did you meet Xu Yunye in the clinic today?" The man's fingers rubbed the skin on her back, preventing her from moving forward.
"Um."
She responded, staring at the red mole on his neck in fascination. The heat in her body, wave after wave, urged her to find a solution.
"He held your hand and encouraged you to change your husband?" His voice was hoarse, but he still remained rational.
After hearing his words, Qiao Xi raised her watery eyes and looked at him in shock: "It's all a misunderstanding! Nothing happened between him and me. He said this to remind me that Xu Xingluo will not let it go."
"We don't even have any ambiguity, who is complaining to you?"
She felt so wronged.
"Jiaojiao told me to keep an eye on you and not let anyone steal your lover." His fingertips were warm as they rested on her tailbone. His brow lowered, and a hint of tenderness and danger appeared at the corners of his eyes.
"Will you cheat on your wife? Huh?" His tone was very seductive, and his lips fell on her shoulder.
Gently kissing her, over and over again, kissing her sensitive parts.
Qiao Xi wanted to kiss him back, but he stopped her and insisted on a definite answer.
She looked pitiful, being tortured to death by the sea of desire!
"I won't, Mr. Huo." She said with a faint cry.
His eyes were filled with dark darkness as he said, "I don't object to you interacting normally with the opposite sex, but please don't cross the line. People with ill intentions like Xu Yunye should be avoided."
"good."
Even if Huo Xingzhou didn't say anything, Qiao Xi wouldn't have too much contact with the Xu family. She would find an opportunity in a few days to arrange for Xu Yunye to be discharged from the hospital.
Du Juan had warned Qiao Xi before that her son was inherently domineering and cold, possessive, and a latent male chauvinist. On the surface, he appeared self-disciplined, abstinent, and aloof, but he guarded his treasure like a giant dragon.
Don't let anyone get involved!
Qiao Xi tentatively moved closer and kissed his red mole.
This time, he did not refuse.
A charming room.
When she was passionate, she reached out and covered his eyes, and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Huo, don't look at me."
He held her hands in his arms and whispered, "I want to look at you, and you have to look at me."
Just look at him.
Watching each other blending in harmony and possessing each other.
The only thing in my heart and eyes is each other.
…
the next day.
Qiao Xi got up early and left. She had a lot to do at the clinic, so she had to sacrifice her sleep time. Aunt Qian got up to make breakfast and saw her leaving.
When Huo Xingzhou went downstairs, breakfast was already prepared.
Aunt Qian put the simple breakfast on the table, stared at Huo Xingzhou for several times, and couldn't help pointing at his neck.
"Master, your neck is too obvious." Aunt Qian told the truth.
"where?"
Huo Xingzhou cracked open a boiled egg and asked while slowly peeling the shell.
Aunt Qian said, "Wait a minute, I'll get you a mirror."
Aunt Qian returned to her room, took a small round mirror, walked to the dining table and handed it to Huo Xingzhou: "Master, take a look at it yourself! It may be a little inappropriate to go to the company like this, and it will greatly affect your majestic image."
Huo Xingzhou took the mirror, and the man's handsome eyebrows and eyes soon appeared in the mirror. With two buttons of his shirt unbuttoned, his neck was fully visible.
The red mole on his neck is right next to his Adam's apple.
It was now glaringly red and a little swollen.
It was sucked out!
Anyone with eyes knows what this is and can imagine how intense it was last night.
"How about I go to the young lady's dressing table and find some concealer to cover this up?" Aunt Qian suggested.
Huo Xingzhou handed her the mirror and said, "Don't bother. Just leave it like this."
"That... is fine too!"
Aunt Qian didn't try to persuade her any further. Going out with such obvious marks on her would be enough to dissuade all the flirtatious men outside!
Huo Xingzhou glanced at the vase of blue eucalyptus flowers in front of the French window in the living room and said, "What kind of flower is this? It looks like it's been blooming for a long time."
He seemed to have seen this kind of flowers all over the mountains when he was in Moon Village.
This bunch of blue gum flowers has been blooming for almost a week.
Aunt Qian only found out what it was called from Huo Sijiao last night, and the two of them even searched online for its meaning.
"Blue eucalyptus! Those are the ones the young lady brought from the club on the day she went to the farewell dinner. They seem to have been blooming for a week! The young lady has to change the water and add nutrient solution every day, but they should wither in two more days."
"Um."
Huo Xingzhou said calmly, "Since she likes it, let's order this kind of flowers for the house in the future."
"Okay!"
Aunt Qian added, "Master, do you know the meaning of the blue eucalyptus flower? My tenderness is only for you. I don't love anything in this world, I only prefer you. I didn't expect that the young lady would have such petty bourgeois feelings."
Huo Xingzhou's mouth curled up.
He had read Stray Birds in his youth and was familiar with Rabindranath Tagore's line, "The blue eucalyptus has met the sophora japonica, and loves nothing but thee." However, he had not imagined that the flower language of the blue eucalyptus had the same meaning as his.
After a simple breakfast, he asked Lao Chen to drive to Tianyuan Building.
…
Near Tianyuan, on a busy street, Cheng's Acupuncture has already opened.
Qiao Xi controlled the number of online appointments, reducing it to thirty per day, and also called on fellow patients to make an appointment only after getting a number before coming to the clinic to avoid making a wasted trip.
The clinic was then back on track and able to operate in an orderly manner.
"Doctor Qiao, we can finally breathe a sigh of relief." Jiang Yue said with a wry smile, "I've been decocting medicine all morning, and the patients all said it's more convenient to take the medicine from our clinic to take away, and they don't want to go home and decoct it."
Qiao Xi comforted her, "Thank you for your hard work. My mother-in-law said she would hire a few more helpers for me, and then she would give you a vacation."
"Thank you, Dr. Qiao! But are you really the owner of the Tianyuan Building next door? The merchants nearby are chatting and asking me about it."
Qiao Xi smiled and said, "Yes, Mr. Huo is indeed my husband."
"I really admire you! You could be living the life of a wealthy wife, but you choose to save the world with medicine. You're truly worthy of being a disciple of a traditional Chinese medicine doctor!"
Qiao Xi's eyes flashed. This had been her dream since she was a child, and now she had another goal.
She really wanted to stand at a height comparable to Mr. Huo, climb up step by step, and stand by his side with full legitimacy. Let everyone know that they were a perfect match and that she was not a burden to him.
"I'm going to go see grandma. You guys deal with it for me for a while."
Qiao Xi said softly.
"Doctor Qiao, your grandmother is... accompanied by someone now." Jiang Yue said in embarrassment.
"Who is it?"
"You'll know when you go and take a look." She couldn't be stopped this early in the morning.
That young master must have been in there for several hours.
