Chapter 378: Chapter 378: She Has a Husband
Su Zixi quickly shook off his hand, awkwardly smiled and said, “Really, there’s no need!”
She hadn’t expected to run into Ning Yichen so quickly, and, just as He Jingyao had said… it seemed that Ning Yichen hadn’t given up yet.
A trace of pain appeared in Ning Yichen’s eyes.
Every time he saw her, her attitude towards him grew more distant.
“I know where the doctor is, I’ll accompany you,” Ning Yichen insisted in his tone.
“Yichen!” Su Lianxi couldn’t hold it in any longer, “Don’t forget this is a hospital! If other people see, your reputation will be ruined!”
Her voice was shrill with pain!
It was one thing for him to ignore her at home, but now at the hospital! She was his wife!
Had Su Zixi’s appearance made him unwilling to even keep up appearances?
“Reputation? Su Lianxi, are you threatening me?” Ning Yichen glanced at her coldly.
Su Lianxi was suddenly like someone whose throat had been grabbed, her face turned red and she couldn’t utter a word.
It was at this moment that Huo Yanhui’s voice rang out, “Little sister-in-law, what’s wrong?”
Su Zixi felt as if she had been granted a great reprieve and said to Ning Yichen, “My friend is here, there’s really no need to trouble you!”
But Ning Yichen still stood in her way, showing no intention of giving her space to pass.
He pursed his lips tightly, looking deeply at her, a gaze that made Su Zixi feel a mix of embarrassment, helplessness, and an unbearable sourness.
Luckily, Huo Yanhui soon reached their side, having come to find Su Guo’an’s attending physician and now holding the detailed medical report in his hand. Seeing the situation, he tossed an arm around Ning Yichen’s shoulders and said, “Hey, isn’t this Young Master Ning? Long time no see, I heard you recently got married!”
Ning Yichen frowned slightly, “Who are you?”
“Who I am isn’t important,” Huo Yanhui didn’t take offense, smiling and said, “What’s important is who my little sister-in-law is! She’s a married woman, and this kind of pulling and tugging isn’t quite right, is it?”
Huo Yanhui had seen Su Zixi visit Ning Yichen at Siming Hospital before, so he was clear about the relationship between these two.
For the sake of his Bugatti Veyron, he also had to take on the responsibility of helping Jingyao chase away rivals and protect his little sister-in-law’s chastity. If that Ning kid got the chance to be alone with the little sister-in-law, Jingyao would definitely not let him off!
Ning Yichen’s face turned somewhat pale, but Huo Yanhui’s words forced him to calm down.
He couldn’t let Su Zixi dislike him.
So, he stepped aside, making room for Su Zixi, and said with a rough voice, “Sorry.”
“It’s okay,” Su Zixi breathed a sigh of relief, averted her gaze, and said to Huo Yanhui, “Dr. Huo, let’s go.”
After they left the ward, Huo Yanhui touched his nose and gave Su Zixi a meaningful look, “Little sister-in-law, I didn’t expect that besides Jingyao, someone else is so devoted to you…”
Su Zixi’s face turned red, “Don’t talk nonsense! Ning Yichen is just… he just can’t accept it.”
Yes, just unable to accept it.
The reason he couldn’t let go probably had a lot to do with guilt and regret.
Huo Yanhui chuckled twice, not saying anything.
“Dr. Qin is your father’s attending physician, I’ve talked to him, he’s fine.” Huo Yanhui pointed to an office up ahead, “Go on, he’ll do the matching for you.”
“Thank you,” Su Zixi nodded and walked into the office.
After watching Su Zixi’s retreating figure disappear, Huo Yanhui turned around with a lazy smile, “Young Master Ning, you still can’t let go, can you.”
