Chapter 376: Chapter 376: Serious Illness (2)
“I’m not worried about you, I’m worried about him,” He Jingyao snorted, his eyes darkening.
Every time he remembered Ning Yichen’s devoted and regret-free demeanor, he felt very uncomfortable.
Su Zixi stuck out her tongue, “I won’t talk to him more than necessary, and who knows, maybe he has already moved on… Anyway, don’t worry! I can go by myself!”
She didn’t want He Jingyao to overstrain himself over her issues, even though he was full of energy. But given the intensity of his work these past few days, how could he not be tired?
Thinking about this, she inevitably felt some heartache.
When He Jingyao saw her expression, he knew what she was thinking. With a smile that wasn’t quite a smile, he pinched her cheek, “Are you afraid I’ve worn myself out? Or is it that I didn’t satisfy you last night?”
Su Zixi’s face reddened, and she grabbed his hand in annoyance, “That’s not what I mean! Jingyao, I know you care about me, but trust me, I’m not that fragile. I can handle it myself! If you’re really worried, you could ask Uncle Li to accompany me!”
Seeing her insistent expression, He Jingyao eventually compromised, “Alright, I’ll finish up what I’m dealing with and then come to find you. Be good, and no matter what happens, don’t act on your own!”
Su Zixi nodded happily.
At one o’clock in the afternoon, Su Zixi arrived at the airport in Yangdong City.
But along with her were not only Uncle Li but also Huo Yanhui.
He Jingyao was probably worried that the doctors in Yangdong City might be bribed by the Su Family to deceive Su Zixi, so he called Huo Yanhui over the phone to be in charge of clarifying confusions and to keep an eye on Su Zixi throughout the trip.
The young master, for some reason, was exceptionally attentive to Su Zixi, “Little sister-in-law, we have half an hour before boarding. Let’s sit in the VIP lounge for a bit.”
Seeing the time, Su Zixi nodded, and after the three of them sat down, Huo Yanhui proactively poured a glass of milk for Su Zixi and a coffee for Uncle Li—it was incredibly sweet of him.
Su Zixi couldn’t help but ask, “Dr. Huo, what exactly did Jingyao offer you?”
Huo Yanhui, with a face full of righteousness, replied, “Jingyao is like a brother to me! It’s my duty to help him with whatever he asks!”
It was as if Su Zixi’s question was an insult to him.
Just as Su Zixi was regretting possibly misunderstanding the situation, Uncle Li subtly laughed and said, “The young master promised to let Dr. Huo drive the limited edition Bugatti Veyron from his garage for a year.”
Su Zixi then realized and gave Huo Yanhui a meaningful “Oh.”
Huo Yanhui’s face couldn’t quite maintain its composure, and he waved his hand, “Even without that Bugatti Veyron, I would have helped!”
Uncle Li continued to tease, “That car is worth over a hundred million. Dr. Huo could indeed afford it if he sold everything he owned.”
“Uncle Li, give me some face here,” Huo Yanhui said in annoyance. “But Jingyao too, he has so many luxury cars in his garage! And yet these past few months, he’s only been driving that SUV. It’s such a waste, such a waste!”
Hearing this, Su Zixi chuckled and lowered her head.
She knew exactly why He Jingyao had recently favored the SUV—the reason being that the car was very spacious…
With Huo Yanhui’s jesting and Uncle Li’s constant teasing, the journey wasn’t boring at all. By four o’clock in the afternoon, Su Zixi had arrived at Yangdong City First Hospital and quickly found Su Guo’an’s hospital room.
