Chapter 718 The Handle Delivered to the Door

Huo Xingzhou had no intention of hiding this from her.

Come to think of it, I also want to know how Qiao Xi reacted to this. He trusted her, but at the same time, he was jealous.

He looked at Qiao Xi's expression, and after seeing her surprise for a moment, he continued, "His assistant saw you enter the hospital and kept asking about you. I couldn't stand it, so I went to see him. So... I told him. He's quite good at pestering people."

Qiao Xi looked at him seriously and said, "He wouldn't say anything nonsense."

"Are you so sure?"

"Ayi won't do anything to hurt me. It's okay to let him know."

Qiao Xi didn't really care about Zhong Yi knowing this.

Huo Xingzhou was very happy to see that she didn't even notice the key point.

"You should take good care of yourself recently. If you have any needs, just let me know. If..." Huo Xingzhou looked at her, with a complex light in his eyes, "If the child affects your work and health, you don't have to have it. We are still young, I will pay more attention in the future."

At first, when Qiao Xi was faced with Du Ya's urging for the birth of her child, she just let nature take its course.

From that time on, Qiao Xi and Huo Xingzhou did not take any further measures.

Qiao Xi had no objection to having a baby so early.

Because she was looking forward to having a child with Huo Xingzhou.

now.

Now hearing Huo Xingzhou say these words, she looked at him in a daze.

The pair of round almond-shaped eyes stared at him.

It seemed that she had not expected that he would say such a thing.

Qiao Xi said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Aren't you looking forward to this child?"

"I am looking forward to it! But I don't want this child to disrupt all your plans. Qiao Xi, it's time for us to have a serious talk about the issue of children." Huo Xingzhou had always taken it for granted that she was looking forward to having a child.

But he didn't ask any more questions.

Then this child came along and they started to face up to the problem.

Huo Xingzhou felt that he had made some mistakes.

In the business world, he knows everything clearly.

But on this matter, I am somewhat timid.

Qiao Xi grabbed the corner of his clothes and whispered, "I want to keep this child."

There are indeed a lot of troubles around her now, so many that she is overwhelmed.

But Qiao Xi cherishes this hard-earned gift.

"Look, the child didn't come earlier or later, but came at this time. This shows that our destiny as parents has come. How can I bear to give up?" Qiao Xi understood what Huo Xingzhou meant. He was afraid that the child would become a burden.

She reached out and held his hand, pulling his hand against her abdomen.

"After a while, you'll feel the heartbeat. You'll also be able to feel the child's presence, and slowly he'll grow up."

This is a little life.

"Xingzhou, are you a little afraid of becoming a father?"

Qiao Xi was both looking forward to having a child and a little scared.

She was afraid that she wouldn't be a good mother.

This is the first time they are facing this problem, so they just need to solve it well.

"I always feel that this identity is a bit heavy. But if you are not afraid, why should I be afraid!" Huo Xingzhou's palm was pressed tightly against her abdomen. "Giving birth is a difficult task for women. I will always be with you."

"That's enough."

Qiao Xi looked at him and smiled gently.

She doesn't have a complete family.

His biological father is vicious and his biological mother is incompetent.

I only have my grandmother to rely on, but other family members can never replace the responsibilities of my parents.

So she longed for her own family.

She wants a happy and stable family where the three of them can live an ordinary life.

Fill the void in your heart.

Huo Xingzhou lowered his eyes and gently rubbed her abdomen. It was as if a weak electric current passed through his heart, a magical feeling.

The feeling of blood connection.

It was as if there was a thread tying him and Qiao Xi together, and it seemed that they would never be able to completely sever the connection in this life.

Qiao Xi leaned to one side, resting her head on his shoulder and said, "The fever is gone. I want to be discharged from the hospital."

"The doctor said I've been overworked lately and need to rest for two days."

"But I still have Grandpa Cheng and Cheng Qingnian to take care of at home, so I can't get away."

"Are you still thinking of making medicinal food for Zhong Yi?"

Qiao Xi felt a little guilty, "I have this idea, but I need to ask someone else to take him to the hospital for me. His body has been severely damaged. If he is not replenished in time, his life will be in jeopardy. I don't want him to come this far with great difficulty, but be dragged down by his body again."

"You have so many people to take care of, why don't you take care of yourself?"

Huo Xingzhou looked at her helplessly.

Qiao Xi lowered her head and said, "I'm sorry."

"You can be discharged from the hospital tomorrow, but you don't have to take special care of them. Stop for two days before doing anything else. Grandpa Cheng's condition has stabilized and his life will not be in danger. And Cheng Qingnian's illness cannot be cured in a short time. As for Zhong Yi..."

When talking about Zhong Yi, Huo Xingzhou felt a little angry.

"You can give the medicinal food to Xiaoyuan and take a look at it yourself. After it is ready, have the bodyguard take it to the hospital. You can stay in bed and rest after you go home in the next few days. I haven't told Sun Weimeng and Jiaojiao about your pregnancy. You can tell them if you want."

"I won't tell you for now. Let's talk about it when things are stable."

Qiao Xi was very afraid that it was just a false happiness, so she decided to take good care of the baby in the first three months.

If Jiaojiao knew about it, then her mother-in-law would definitely know about it.

"Are you full?"

"Um."

"You can get up and walk around a bit to help digest the food. If you lie down and go to sleep directly, I'm afraid you'll feel uncomfortable from the food."

Qiao Xi was very obedient and nodded.

She threw back the quilt, took Huo Xingzhou's hand, stood up, and walked slowly back and forth in the ward.

She was still thinking about the free clinic at the end of the month.

…

The next few days.

Qiao Xi was forced to stay in bed for a period of time. When her family asked her about it, she said that she was weak and needed recuperation.

The Chinese Medicine Association has also been quiet, with no one causing trouble.

The imperial capital was completely filled with news about the Zhong family.

It is rumored that Zhong Lingxiao will become the next successor, and this will be known in the first month of the lunar year.

When Zhong Yi was in the hospital, the old lady from the Zhong family never showed up.

Outsiders speculated that they had completely given up hope on him, so no one went to visit him.

Zhong Lingxiao is very high-profile, attending banquets everywhere and is sought after by many people!

Lin Xifei beside him was also in a good mood.

Zhong Yi saw that the situation was hopeless and many of his projects had been targeted by Zhong Lingxiao.

Many people lament that illegitimate children are not as good as legitimate children. The illegitimate child was brought back to be responsible for continuing the family line.

Now it has no value at all!

In the study room of the Huo family villa.

Qiao Xi poured Huo Xingzhou a glass of lemonade, put it next to his hand and said, "Do you think Ayi has a chance to turn things around this time? If he loses, it means our Huo family has lost. The Zhong family and the Pei family will definitely deal with us next."

She frowned.

Huo Xingzhou turned to look at her, stretched out his hand to smooth her brows and said.

"Originally, I might not have been sure, but...some people were too proud to give me evidence."

"What handle?" Qiao Xi asked puzzledly.

Huo Xingzhou took out a manila envelope and handed it to her.
