Chapter 39 It's always just you and me
My mother was frightened and could only sob quietly.
"Your daughter is not pregnant."
Huo Dongming was too lazy to explain. He felt that there was no need to waste words with them. He came here to know if Yi Xiaxue inside was okay.
"Mr. Huo, how can you still say such things now? Xia Xue has given so much for you. If she knew you treated her like this, she would be so sad."
Yi's mother cried silently, and Huo Dongming stared at the light in the operating room.
An Lan had been following Huo Dongming. She gave Yi Xiaxue some advice, but she didn't expect that this woman would actually come up with something useful.
I don't know whether to say she is smart or stupid.
If you try to commit suicide with a cold-blooded animal like Huo Dongming, it would be a waste if you actually die.
After waiting for half an hour, the door opened.
After the doctor came out, Huo Dongming was the first to walk over.
"How is it?"
"The cut wasn't deep, and thanks to timely rescue efforts, it wasn't a big deal."
The doctor rolled his eyes inwardly.
Another person who committed suicide and was saved. People who don't want to die are just wasting hospital resources by putting on a show all day long.
Some reporters who got the news wanted to watch and take pictures to get first-hand information, but Huo Dongming's bodyguards rudely snatched the cameras from their hands and smashed them to pieces.
The young nurses who were watching the excitement in the hospital were frightened and turned pale.
Huo Dongming transferred Yi Xiaxue to a high-level ward.
Yi Xiaxue woke up on the stretcher and saw Huo Dongming crying.
"Dong Ming - don't chase me away. I can't live without you."
She cried so sadly, and Huo Dongming's expression softened a little when he thought that this woman almost lost her life to save him.
"I'm not trying to chase you away—"
Yi's father stood in front of Huo Dongming.
"Mr. Huo, our whole family is here today, please give me an explanation."
Yi Xiaxue quickly reached out to pull her father.
"Dad, don't worry about our business."
"How can that be? You're even pregnant with his child. Are you just going to let it go?"
Yi's father didn't know yet that it was his daughter who was at fault first.
Yi Xiaxue felt guilty, and under pressure from Huo Dongming's gaze, she had to admit to her parents that the pregnancy was fake.
The Yi couple were stunned.
Yi's father didn't know what to do and looked embarrassed.
"I'll push you in."
Huo Dongming had given both parties a stepping stone, but Yi Xiaxue didn't have much eyesight and stared at Huo Dongming with a wronged look on her face.
"Dong Ming, can you carry me in? I feel uncomfortable lying down."
Huo Dongming looked at Yi Xiaxue on the stretcher. She had a pretty face, but Huo Dongming felt nothing for her, let alone agreeing to her unreasonable request.
“It’s easier to push it in.”
He was too lazy to even say no. Yi Xiaxue looked embarrassed and wanted to act coquettishly, but she took back all the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
After entering the ward, the Yi couple tactfully withdrew, intentionally leaving space for them.
"Why is suicide so serious?"
He kept a distance from Yi Xiaxue and was extremely disgusted with this behavior.
When the word suicide was mentioned, Yi Xiaxue's eyes instantly turned red.
"Are you really going to chase me away? Dongming, I know I was wrong, please don't treat me like this."
How could she leave Dongshi and Huo Dongming?
She, Yi Xiaxue, was just the daughter of a driver. Even if she was somewhat pretty, it would be harder than climbing to the sky to make a living in the entertainment industry full of beautiful women without a powerful sponsor like Huo Dongming.
Her ambition is not just to be a top star, she wants to marry into a wealthy family, become a wealthy wife, and live a life of luxury and envy.
"No, you are not wrong."
Huo Dongming spat out a few words coldly. Yi Xiaxue thought she had heard it wrongly, but then she felt happy when she thought he was protecting her.
However, Huo Dongming's next words almost made Yi Xiaxue cry to death on the hospital bed.
"I shouldn't have let you interfere in my life, causing my wife to misunderstand our relationship."
Huo Dongming felt that he had not taught Yi Xiaxue what boundaries were.
After all, he now felt that he cared a little about that poor little Shang Wanwan.
The way she looked at him with resentment made his stomach tighten whenever he thought about it.
Yi Xiaxue was stunned.
She thought Huo Dongming would say something to comfort her, but the reality she got was even crueler than she had imagined.
"Dong, Dongming, between us——"
Don't they have a connection?
She didn't believe that Huo Dongming didn't like her.
If he didn't like her, why did he abandon his wife for her again and again?
The woman who has been hidden from the light of day is either too ugly to be seen or she really has no merits to show off.
After all these years of being in the upper class society, she at least understands the rules.
Which rich man doesn't put his wife first?
For example, if the couple keeps the marriage secret, it means that they don't have any outstanding qualities, but their in-laws are afraid of bringing shame to the couple, so they deliberately keep the marriage secret.
"There is no "us" between us. It has always been just you and me."
At this moment, the boundaries are clear.
The expectation on Yi Xiaxue's face disappeared visibly.
"You saved my life, so I will meet all your career requirements and give you a green light. That's all I can give you."
He wanted her to know when to stop.
"Dong Ming, don't you like me at all?"
Yi Xiaxue really couldn't accept this fact.
She also tried to put in some of Huo Dongming's emotions.
She didn't believe that he had no feelings for her at all.
Huo Dongming lit a cigarette and sat on the only sofa in the ward with his legs crossed.
He blew a smoke ring into the air and snorted coldly.
"How can a married man get so much love?"
He never had any improper thoughts about Yi Xiaxue.
If he had to say which woman he was interested in, it would be Shang Wanwan.
Yi Xiaxue's self-confidence was shattered at this moment.
She sat up from the bed, her body shaking uncontrollably.
"Dong Ming, I swear I will never bother Mrs. Huo again. Please let me stay with you."
She started coughing violently, and her face turned red.
Because the amplitude was too large, I almost fainted from choking on my own saliva.
Huo Dongming watched her performance quietly for a few minutes and personally poured a glass of water and handed it to her.
"This is the first time. If you do it again, East City won't tolerate you."
Huo Dongming placed the water on the bedside table and raised his wrist to look at his watch.
It's already three o'clock in the morning.
He has been with her for a long enough time, and the jealous little woman at home must have been angry a long time ago.
He used to find women annoying, but now he feels good to have a woman who cares about him.
"I won't do that anymore. I won't do that again."
Yi Xiaxue apologized repeatedly, and Huo Dongming got up and left.
There was no trace of nostalgia when he left.
Yi Xiaxue watched his back disappear through the door, her long nails almost digging into her flesh.
Who is that Mrs. Huo whom I have never met before?
It was clearly the meat in her mouth, and she was about to swallow it, but it was pulled away by someone.
She was unwilling to accept it.
Yi Xiaxue picked up her phone and dialed An Lan's number...
