The assistant gave her a strange look. "Why are we staying here? This is Mr. Huo's private room."
Hua Fei was slightly taken aback: "Then how were you able to walk out of the room and into the hallway just now?"
“You don’t need to worry about that,” the assistant shook his head. “We have our own way of working.”
Hua Fei breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that her affair with Huo Beichen hadn't been broadcast live.
Even more fortunately, her interrogations of Huo Beichen were not overheard by his assistants.
However, her ears were still a little red.
"Dr. Hua, you haven't answered my question yet," the assistant pressed, "Why did you sneak in?"
"I...I just...Hey, don't you all know how much I like President Huo?" Hua Fei simply answered as before, confirming her infatuation with Huo Beichen.
In everyone's eyes, she had improper thoughts about Huo Beichen.
As expected, the assistant was speechless.
After a moment, he continued, "Then I'll trouble Dr. Hua to go in and check on Mr. Huo's condition."
Hua Fei followed her assistant into the bedroom and pretended to inspect it.
Huo Beichen's heart was beating faster than before, and although he was in a drowsy state, he was sleeping very restlessly.
The medicine was working, but fortunately it was suppressed by Huafeng's acupuncture, and there was no further embarrassment.
Serves you right!
Hua Fei cursed inwardly!
"He's fine, just let him sleep peacefully until dawn," Hua Fei said.
"Why is Mr. Huo sweating so much?" the assistant asked worriedly.
“The drug Sun Xiaowei put in his drink was too strong,” Hua Fei replied. “Why don’t we call Sun Xiaowei over to take the antidote?”
The assistant frowned: "President Huo instructed that Sun Xiaowei must not be allowed into his room tonight."
"Scumbag!" Hua Fei muttered under her breath, then turned and left the room.
The assistant was taken aback.
When Hua Fei returned to the sanatorium, A Yue and Ze Ze were still awake, waiting for her news.
However, upon seeing Hua Fei's expression, A Yue's anticipation vanished instantly.
"Zeze, go to sleep. It seems someone didn't complete their task." Ayue tucked Zeze in.
Hua Fei was speechless. "You think I didn't want to complete the mission? It just means the opponent was too strong, and some situations arose that I couldn't have foreseen."
"Don't be discouraged," Zeze said. "Aunt Hua, I'll help you again next time."
"See, my Zeze is the best at comforting people." Hua Fei smiled from the bottom of her heart.
But then she saw A-Yue looking at her with a warning in her eyes.
Hua Fei was stunned for a moment before realizing that she had just said "my Zeze".
Her tone was like a mother's.
Her gaze quickly shifted to Zeze, but fortunately Zeze didn't notice anything amiss and just yawned. "I'm not trying to comfort you, I'm serious."
"Go to sleep first, you've had a tough day." A-Yue interrupted him, ordering him to close his eyes and go to sleep.
Zeze was very obedient and fell asleep quickly after closing his eyes.
He was indeed tired.
Everything was fine until I pretended to be in critical condition, which led to the doctor conducting repeated examinations on me.
Although no problems could be found, the doctor did not consider any other possibilities and firmly believed that he had not done his job properly and had not given the patient a thorough examination.
By evening, Zeze couldn't keep up the act any longer and said she felt much better.
The doctors finally breathed a sigh of relief.
With such a responsible doctor, A-Yue had no temper left.
After listening to A-Yue's account, Hua-Fei also recounted what had happened at the Huo family's residence.
The two remained silent.
A-Yue sighed softly, "What are you planning to do next?"
Hua Fei's expression was solemn: "We can't say there won't be any results tonight. At least I'm sure Huo Beichen knows the child's whereabouts!"
“But he’s too cunning,” A-Yue said worriedly. “I’m worried he’ll discover your identity before you do, and then…”
“Then I have to continue,” Hua Fei said, lowering her eyes. “At least I need to find out where that child is now…”
There was a deep sadness in her eyes.
A-Yue didn't say anything, but she thought to herself that she would never fall in love with any man in her life.
It's too bitter, too tiring, and in more serious cases, it can even cost you your life.
...
"Mr. Huo, you're awake."
Huo Beichen heard his assistant's soft call and slowly opened his eyes, immediately feeling dizzy and lightheaded.
Looking again, there was a medicine bottle hanging by the bedside, and the medicine was being dripped into his veins.
"What happened?" he asked, his voice hoarse.
“You slept very restlessly last night, sweating profusely,” the assistant replied. “We tried to wake you, but you wouldn’t, so we had to call a doctor.”
Huo Beichen looked himself over and didn't see a single silver needle. "Dr. Hua didn't examine me?" he asked, his tone full of displeasure.
"Dr. Hua examined you, but she said you should sleep until morning," the assistant replied.
Huo Beichen raised an eyebrow: "That's all she said?"
"Yes, she left after saying that."
As for Dr. Hua's insult of "scumbag," there's probably no need to tell President Huo.
"Where is she now?" Huo Beichen asked.
"She and the young master are still at the sanatorium. They said the environment there is nice, and they'll come back after a few days of recuperation."
"Can a sanatorium be as nice as home?" Huo Beichen retorted.
The assistant immediately understood, "I'll inform Dr. Hua right away and bring the young master back."
Huo Beichen closed his eyes heavily, his eyes filled with exhaustion.
He was really exhausted last night.
The assistant led three to five people to the sanatorium.
"Why didn't Mr. Huo go find Miss Sun? Instead, he had us bring Dr. Hua back first?" an assistant asked in confusion on the way.
"Mr. Huo wants the young master to come back."
"That shouldn't be the case. Miss Sun blocked the door last night. Isn't Mr. Huo in a hurry to give her an explanation?"
“That makes sense. The young master can recuperate anywhere, but if Miss Sun gets angry, it will affect Mr. Huo’s marriage to her.”
"I have a feeling that Mr. Huo doesn't really want to marry Miss Sun."
"We're all men, would you have this attitude if you wanted to marry a woman?"
"Can we compare to President Huo? If we could guess President Huo's thoughts, we would be big bosses too."
"Anyway, this is just so strange."
Hua Fei, who was rushed back, was also a little worried.
Logically speaking, most people shouldn't remember what happened last night, but Huo Beichen was someone she couldn't figure out.
He must have another purpose in rushing to have her brought back.
"Dr. Hua." The butler suddenly came into the treatment room. "Mr. Huo would like to see you in the study."
"What...what's wrong with him?" Hua Fei asked.
"Miss Sun has arrived. She says she has something to discuss with you and Mr. Huo in person," the butler replied.
Sun Xiaowei?
To Huafei's surprise.
"Okay, I'll be right there." Hua Fei sent the housekeeper away first.
"Quick, hide it in your clothes." Ah Yue quickly handed her a few silver needles.
"No need," Hua Fei shook her head.
"Are you stupid? Sun Xiaowei is up to no good!" A-Yue said worriedly.
“If she brought a lot of people, like last night, these few needles wouldn’t be enough to protect me.”
Hua Fei said, "Don't worry, if a real emergency occurs, I have a way to protect myself."
