Chapter 41 Epic Green Tea
The two returned to the ward. Huo Juncheng leaned lazily on the bed, while Lin Yilan sat beside him and was doing her luck.
Huo Juncheng put down his phone and interrupted Lin Yilan's movements: "Go to sleep."
"No, didn't you just say you were not feeling well? I have to warm you up first. What if something really goes wrong with you?" Lin Yilan stubbornly grabbed Huo Juncheng's hands. She pouted her red lips and rolled her eyes at Huo Juncheng.
Huo Juncheng withdrew his hands again, his eagle eyes staring into Lin Yilan's clear eyes: "Don't use this method to warm yourself up."
"Then what should we do?" Lin Yilan looked at Huo Juncheng in surprise, thinking that he had some even more brilliant idea.
Huo Juncheng hugged her in his arms. Lin Yilan subconsciously wanted to push him away, but she quickly gave up the idea and her hands just froze in mid-air.
He looked at Lin Yilan's conflicted expression and found her really cute.
Lin Yilan's eyes widened, and she asked, "How can it be warm like this?"
"Hold me tight." Huo Juncheng leaned over and whispered softly in her ear.
Lin Yilan said "oh" and did as she was told.
Lin Yilan was a straightforward person and didn't know how to beat around the bush. Huo Juncheng asked her to hold him, so Lin Yilan put Huo Juncheng on her arm with her backhand and gently covered his chest with her other hand.
Lin Yilan almost used her hands and feet, and her legs were still on Huo Juncheng's body.
If it were laid out as a flat diagram, Lin Yilan would be hanging on Huo Juncheng's body.
A dignified CEO, the bachelor in the hearts of thousands of girls, all of that is just a passing cloud!
Huo Juncheng was about to say something, but when he glanced down, he realized that Lin Yilan had fallen asleep.
Her fair and tender little face and slightly pouty red lips are pure and lovely, especially her red lips, which are as delicious as ripe cherries.
Huo Juncheng couldn't help but quickly covered her lips with his own, like a chicken pecking at rice. Lin Yilan, who was soundly sleeping, pushed his face away and muttered softly, "Don't disturb my sleep!"
Looking at the person beside him sleeping soundly, Huo Juncheng lifted the quilt and got out of bed.
Before leaving, he did not forget to tuck in the corners of Lin Yilan's quilt.
Huo Juncheng glanced at the missed call on his phone. It was a call from Xu Qian, his informant at Ocean University.
"Mr. Huo, we must have investigated. There's a high chance that the old lady's meal was tampered with. Before the old lady ate, the couple looked like they were about to fight. So what they said, that they were so focused on the quarrel that they didn't notice anything else, is also possible."
A man's voice came from the other end of the phone, and Huo Juncheng nodded calmly.
"It's just as I guessed, but this time it was your fault. If it happens again, you should be aware of the consequences." Huo Juncheng's tone was so cold and indifferent that the person on the other end of the phone felt a chill even through the phone screen.
Back in the ward, Lin Yilan seemed to have had a beautiful dream and was still mumbling in her sleep.
What Huo Juncheng didn't expect was that when he woke up, the sun was shining outside the window, but there was no one beside him.
The Huo family called and found out that Lin Yilan had left early in the morning and went to the Huo family.
Upon hearing this news, Huo Juncheng's frown finally relaxed.
"Since you are so worried about me, why do you pretend to be indifferent all the time? You are good in every way except that you have one more mouth to feed!" Zheng Ronglan came out of nowhere and spoke so suddenly, which really surprised Huo Juncheng.
Huo Juncheng rolled his eyes at him. Just that murderous look was enough to prove that his inner anger was overflowing at the moment.
Zheng Ronglan gave Huo Juncheng some information he had compiled.
"You're just a cowardly bully. Why don't you just yell at your precious wife? If I had known, I should have gone up the mountain with her to practice martial arts!"
"What are you doing?" Suddenly, Huo Juncheng looked at Zheng Ronglan suspiciously and asked seriously.
"What are you talking about? That will naturally be when I can be as powerful as your wife. Then I'll see how you can boss me around." After saying this, Zheng Ronglan made a contemptuous gesture towards Huo Juncheng.
Huo Juncheng carefully looked through the stack of information that Zheng Ronglan sent him.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Huo Juncheng and Zheng Ronglan looked towards the door at the same time.
Lin Pinyan was standing outside the door, carrying several handbags. It was obvious that she had dressed up carefully today. The delicate makeup on her face must have taken a lot of effort.
"Why are you here?" Huo Juncheng put the information away and put it back into the file bag, asking unhappily.
Lin Pinyan walked in quickly with a smile on her face. She put the gift she brought on the ground and looked around. She saw that Lin Yilan was not there! Her heart was so happy that it almost blossomed!
Lin Pinyan said slowly, "The mother of a good friend of mine is a doctor in the emergency room. Last night I heard that my grandmother was hospitalized with food poisoning. I was a little worried, so I wanted to come and see her."
"Grandma? When did my grandma and you become so familiar with each other?" Huo Juncheng looked at Lin Pinyan suspiciously, and he said with a sneer.
However, Lin Pinyan didn't care about Huo Juncheng's attitude at all!
After much deliberation, Lin Pinyan shamelessly looked at Huo Juncheng and said, "If the Huo family doesn't want to marry into the Lin family, then Grandma Huo is no different from my own grandmother."
"These gifts are carefully selected by me to protect the stomach. I also specially ordered chicken soup, which will be delivered in about half an hour!" Lin Pinyan tried her best to package herself as a caring and lovely good girl.
However, she didn't know that she had once again touched Huo Juncheng's bottom line.
Huo Juncheng hated others prying into his background the most. A mere Lin Pinyan was able to get the news of Mrs. Huo's hospitalization in such a short time. Just think about how terrifying this woman's tactics were!
"Ahem, I was saying the peach blossoms weren't blooming well this year. Turns out they've all ended up in someone's arms." Zheng Ronglan's behavior at this moment was typical gloating. The way he was trying to hold back his laughter made Huo Juncheng really want to splash the water in the cup at hand on his face.
Huo Juncheng frowned and said unhappily, "I already know what you mean. This is a ward, and I'm still a patient and need to rest. It's nothing, you can go back."
Let’s go back?
Lin Pinyan was petrified. She got up at five in the morning to dress up.
The first thing Lin Pinyan did when the mall opened was to rush in to do some shopping, but she ended up being turned away!
"Well, can I go see grandma? I really feel uneasy when I can't see her. Grandma Huo is a kind person. Has the food poisoning been diagnosed? Is there someone with ulterior motives who deliberately poisoned her food?" Lin Pinyan pretended to be clever and took the opportunity to instigate the relationship between Huo Juncheng and Lin Yilan.
At least, this is not a trivial matter. If she can make Huo Juncheng doubt Lin Yilan, she will have accomplished her mission.
What man would be willing to marry a woman who wants to murder his grandmother?
