“Young Master Xiao, please!”
At the door, Qin Mu’s voice rang out just in time.
Luo Haofeng’s brows lifted in approval, shooting Qin Mu a look of admiration. Indeed, well done, his brother.
Xiao Yuting glared furiously at Qin Mu, who, however, ignored his anger. The cold indifference in his face radiated a touch of arrogance as he didn’t even look directly at him.
Had Xiao Yuting not clearly heard who had just spoken, considering that those left in the hospital room were only Luo Haofeng and Bai Xiaoxiao, and it was Qin Mu who remained by the door with a cold demeanor, Xiao Yuting might have doubted if those words came from Qin Mu.
Xiao Yuting was furious but he hadn’t lost all reason.
He knew he wouldn’t win against Luo Haofeng and Qin Mu. But he had something to say to Bai Xiaoxiao, and it wouldn’t be convenient for them to hear.
He brushed his lips, forcefully suppressing the anger in his heart. He put down the flowers, saying, “Xiaoxiao, I’ve been out on a business trip these past few days. I only returned this morning. I’ll come to see you again tonight.”
Xiao Yuting had only taken one step when Luo Haofeng stopped him.
He looked at Luo Haofeng coldly, who put down the vase, walked over and stuffed the flowers Xiao Yuting had bought into his arms, saying with a smile, “Take these flowers and give them to Linda, your fianceé. I believe she’ll definitely like them.”
Xiao Yuting’s suppressed anger instantly flared up again. He gave Luo Haofeng a hateful look, lifting his chin in cold mockery, “Luo Haofeng, this is between Xiaoxiao and me, it’s none of your business. As for you, you shouldn’t be lingering in this hospital room, but instead, you should be keeping company with your numerous girlfriends.”
Luo Haofeng laughed, “Xiaoxiao is my dear friend, so I’m here with her. As for you, Young Master Xiao, isn’t it time for you to go find your intended, Linda, with those flowers?”
“Xiaoxiao? Are you really with Luo Haofeng?”
Xiao Yuting found it hard to believe it was true. Bai Xiaoxiao had been chasing him for over twenty years. In his view, even if he didn’t like her, was annoyed by her, or even humiliated her, she’d always follow him.
How could she suddenly fall for another man just like that?
And to make matters worse, that Luo Haofeng was not just handsome but also came from a more prestigious family— he was the Crown Prince of the Bai family… A charming man admired by countless women, and he was infatuated with Bai Xiaoxiao…
If they were together,
He realized, an intense jealousy was stirring up in his heart.
In the bed, Bai Xiaoxiao’s expression was indifferent, as if she hadn’t heard Xiao Yuting’s words at all.
“Xiaoxiao, I’m going now!”
The words Xiao Yuting wanted to say were on the tip of his tongue, but he changed his mind at the last second.
He left the hospital room in dissatisfaction, under Bai Xiaoxiao’s ignoring gaze and Qin Mu and Luo Haofeng’s scornful looks.
As soon as he left the room, Qin Mu slammed the door of the room shut.
Luo Haofeng looked at Bai Xiaoxiao with a cheerful smile, “Xiaoxiao, Xiao Yuting hasn’t visited you before, has he?” ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by NoveIＦire.net
From how Xiao Yuting spoke just now, it seemed like today was his first visit.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s accident happened nearly two weeks ago, and he only showed up now, and yet he acted as if Bai Xiaoxiao would always like him. No matter how you look at it, he was asking for a beating.
Bai Xiaoxiao nodded, speaking in a bland tone, “When I had the car accident, he was out on a business trip. As he said, he only came back this morning.”
Upon her words, Luo Haofeng’s smile faded, and his eyes narrowed, “You’re not regretting sending him away, are you? Could it be, you still have feelings for him?”
“Who I like, do I need to report it to you?”
The expression on Bai Xiaoxiao’s face shifted slightly, answering dismissively.
Having been silenced by her, Luo Haofeng instinctively wanted to retort, but remembering that he had pissed her off yesterday and made her faint, he swallowed back the words on the tip of his tongue. A smile reappeared on his handsome face, “Xiaoxiao, we are friends, so there’s no such thing as reporting or not. I was just concerned about you. If you don’t believe me, ask Ah Mu, right, Ah Mu?”
Qin Mu smirked, “Miss Bai, Ah Feng really cares about you. Yesterday, he got you so upset you fainted and he almost didn’t sleep all night. Anyway, you two keep chatting, I have some things to do, so I’ll leave first.”
“Wait for me, we can go together.”
The words of Luo Haofeng pleading him to stay slipped out before he could stop them.
Qin Mu gave him a light glance, smiled at Bai Xiaoxiao, opened the door, and left on his own.
When Mo Xiuchen and Wen Ran returned after lunch, they saw Luo Haofeng by the bedside peeling an apple with great attention.
“Luo Haofeng, why are you still here? I thought you left long ago.”
Wen Ran stepped into the hospital room, seeing Bai Xiaoxiao and Luo Haofeng getting along so well, her fears eased.
“Haven’t you had lunch yet?”
Mo Xiuchen’s gaze swept over Bai Xiaoxiao, landing on Luo Haofeng who was done peeling the apple.
His apple peeling skills were always good, the apple under his expert hand looked as if it had simply shed a layer of skin, still slick and smooth.
Luo Haofeng shrugged, cut the apple into pieces, put them in a fruit plate, took out some toothpicks and stuck them in, his movements displaying his proficient elegance, “No, you guys hadn’t come back, so I didn’t dare to leave. Ah Mu had to go.
“Ah Mu? He came with you too?”
There was a flash of surprise in Mo Xiuchen’s eyes.
At work, he knew Luo Haofeng had asked Qin Mu to accompany him, but he was refused.
Luo Haofeng chuckled, and said proudly, “Ah Mu said he wouldn’t accompany me, but actually, he arrived even earlier than me. Didn’t you see him when you and Wen Ran left? His car was parked by the road.”
Having said that, Mo Xiuchen looked towards Wen Ran, speaking softly, “Ranran, Ah Feng hasn’t had lunch yet. I’ll go with him, you stay with Xiaoxiao.”
“You guys go ahead, Luo Haofeng, thanks for keeping Xiaoxiao company this afternoon.”
Wen Ran looked at Luo Haofeng, grinning from ear to ear.
His performance this afternoon was not bad, judging from Xiaoxiao’s expression, it seemed like no quarrels had occurred.
Luo Haofeng laughed, stood up, and cheerfully said, “Xiaoxiao, rest well. I’ll come to see you tonight.”
Wen Ran blinked in confusion.
She looked over at Mo Xiuchen, who didn’t look surprised at all that Luo Haofeng had such a good rapport with Bai Xiaoxiao, a faint smile playing around the corners of his mouth.
As soon as Mo Xiuchen and Luo Haofeng left, Wen Ran curiously asked, “Xiaoxiao, did Luo Haofeng make anyone angry today?”
Bai Xiaoxiao swallowed the apple in mouth, “No, he actually did me a favor.”
Wen Ran was even more curious and quickly fed her another piece of apple.
“He helped me drive Xiao Yuting away.”
“Xiao Yuting was here? What did he want?”
Wen Ran frowned as she had no good feelings towards Xiao Yuting.
She had paid no attention to Xiao Yuting since the incident with Linda and her breaking up, and it was the first time that Xiao Yuting had appeared during Xiaoxiao’s hospital stay for so many days. What was he playing at?
“He wanted to see if I still had feelings for him.”
Bai Xiaoxiao found her own words laughable as she spoke.
