Huo Beiting's hand unconsciously touched Yan Qing's hair, with tenderness in his eyes.
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the side, and Huo Beiting was so frightened that he immediately pulled his hand back for fear that Yan Qing would find out, but because his hand moved too quickly, the area where the needle was inserted bulged.
"Brother, why are you here? You are sick!"
Huo Yuanlu just saw a figure in the distance and thought it was his brother, but he was not too sure. After all, his brother would never come to this kind of hospital with his status. But he was worried that it was really his brother, so he came over to take a look. Unexpectedly, it was really his brother.
"Keep your voice down and call the nurse."
Huo Beiting glared at Huo Yuanlu and pointed at Yan Qing.
For a long time, Huo Yuanlu only knew that his brother was pursuing a girl named Yan Qing, but he had never seen what she looked like. Now that the girl appeared in front of him, Huo Yuanlu was extremely curious. He didn't notice the blood oozing out of his brother's hand for a moment, and was only focused on observing the girl whose face was half covered by her hair.
Just as he leaned forward, Huo Beiting ruthlessly pushed him aside, "Call the nurse over!"
Huo Beiting's voice was low, and Huo Yuanlu was shocked when he heard it. He dared not hesitate any longer and ran to call the nurse over.
The nurse quickly changed the needle for Huo Beiting and told him not to move around.
"What are you doing here?"
Huo Beiting frowned and looked at Huo Yuanlu with disgust, feeling a pang of pain in his heart.
"A friend of mine had some problems and is in the hospital these days. I came to visit him and unexpectedly ran into him. Brother, how are you? Have you told grandpa?"
Huo Yuanlu lowered his voice, but he still couldn't help but want to see what the girl looked like.
Huo Beiting pulled Yan Qing's face closer to him and used his body to block Huo Yuanlu's gaze.
"Brother, why bother? We'll meet sooner or later anyway, so why not let me see you now so I don't offend you later!"
"Need not."
Yan Qing just moved uncomfortably, and her lips happened to touch his chest.
The clothes were thin in the summer, and the heat from his lips went straight to his chest through the thin fabric. Huo Beiting felt his heart beating a little faster.
"You don't need to tell Grandpa about my affairs. Grandpa is old, so don't let him worry about our affairs. And you too, stop calling those bad friends outside. You are not young anymore, and it's time for Grandpa to share some of the burden. Go to the company more often when you have nothing to do. Don't bother others with everything. You will have to rely on yourself in the future!"
Huo Yuanlu hurriedly covered Huo Beiting's mouth to stop him from speaking any further. He shook his brother's arm in a flattering manner, and the big man over one meter tall spoke to his brother in a coquettish manner.
"Brother, you're not even thirty yet, so stop chanting like a monk. Otherwise, your sister-in-law will dislike you! And those aren't just friends, they're my friends I've known for years! I've been watching over you at the company, you know everything! You know how obedient I've been lately, so stop chanting!"
As he spoke, it seemed like someone was calling out to Huo Yuanlu, and Huo Yuanlu shouted hurriedly as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
"Brother, someone called me over there. I'm leaving first. Don't worry, I won't tell anything about Grandpa, but around us... you know, if Grandpa asks about it, don't blame me. I'm leaving first. You and sister-in-law get along well!"
After saying that, Huo Yuanlu ran away like a gust of wind, as if there was some ferocious beast behind him.
Huo Beiting sighed helplessly, wondering whether he should call his grandfather and ask him to discipline Huo Yuanlu. But then he thought, his grandfather is old and he is just an older brother. How could he feel embarrassed to trouble his grandfather with such a thing? So he gave up the idea of calling his grandfather.
An hour later, the drip was finally over. It should have contained nutritional medicine such as glucose. Before the injection was over, Huo Beiting felt that he had regained some strength.
Seeing Yan Qing sleeping so soundly, Huo Beiting wanted to carry her directly to the car, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, Yan Qing woke up.
He rubbed his misty eyes, yawned, and tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.
"It's over! How did I fall asleep?"
Yan Qing slapped his forehead in annoyance, held Huo Beiting's hand and got into the car to go home.
After returning home, because the doctor had advised to eat light food for the next few days, Yan Qing volunteered to cook a bowl of porridge, and dinner was just that simple.
The next morning, Huo Beiting's cell phone rang before he even got up. He picked it up and saw it was from Huo Zhen. He knew what it was for without having to think about it.
"grandfather……"
"I heard they said you went to the hospital for an injection yesterday? What happened? Aren't you always in good health?"
Huo Zhen asked anxiously, and even wanted Huo Beiting to come back and let the family doctor see him.
"Grandpa, there's no need to worry. I just had a stomachache yesterday. I got an injection and took some medicine, and I'm fine now!"
"Haven't I told you since you were little that you have to be extremely careful with everything you put in your mouth? What you can and can't eat? Don't you have this much common sense at such a grown-up?"
Huo Zhen was so angry that he hit the ground hard with his crutch. Huo Beiting could clearly hear the noise over the phone.
"Grandpa, there are some things you don't know. Anyway, I'm fine now, so don't worry!"
Huo Beiting said perfunctorily and looked up at the time. It was almost half past six, and it was time to go downstairs to make breakfast.
"What do you mean it's okay? You have to come home today! You're such a fool! Why did you go to such a small hospital? What if they gave you antibiotics? You're so young and you're constantly being given antibiotics. What are you going to do when you're older? You don't have to wait until you're thirty before all the problems start to come your way!"
Huo Beiting now felt what Huo Yuanlu felt yesterday. No wonder he ran so fast yesterday.
Huo Beiting didn't dare to talk back and just endured it silently. It didn't take long for Huo Zhen to finish his "nagging".
"...Don't be disgusted by my nagging. I raised you and Yuanlu with great difficulty. I went through so much hardship. If anything happens to you, how am I supposed to face your parents in the future?"
Huo Beiting slowly comforted him until Huo Zhen's emotions gradually calmed down.
"Grandpa, I'm really fine. What's more, yesterday was a special case. I promise that this won't happen again. I have something else to do here, so I'll hang up first!"
Huo Zhen sighed and had to give more instructions.
After hanging up the phone, Huo Beiting waved his arms and felt that the strength he had lost yesterday was almost back. Apart from feeling a little dizzy from standing up too quickly, there were no other problems.
