It can’t be! How can a woman say ‘no’ to such a beautiful diamond ring?
It doesn’t make sense! Don’t people say that diamonds are a woman’s best friend?
“I mean I had tried my very best, Brother Ting. How could you blame me on this?”
Huo Yunting glanced upon the fanboy with the piece of cigarette placed between his fingers like a guillotine for Huo Li.
Huo Li swung the droplets of sweat over his forehead as the imaginary light bulb shone over his head, “Right! Maybe—Just maybe, my dear sister-in-law feels that it wasn’t the right timing! Not the time yet! Maybe she mistook your intention as an act for Xuxu. I mean, you never gave her any ring since you married her back then, did you?”
Very true, Huo Li. You are a super genius. Yeah, that’s why Brother Ting likes you. It must be Brother Ting’s impatience that frightened my sister-in-law. How could he blame me?
Thought Huo Li. Although he had a lot to say, he had to swallow his pride.
“Well, when did I ever treat her poorly?” As long as the female lead said ‘yes’, he would buy her a new ring anytime at any price!
He took out the ring he bought yesterday and tossed it at Huo Li, “Your job now is to contact the world-best designer for jewelries and planner for wedding, from top to bottom, makeup to the ceremony. World’s best.”
Wait, shouldn’t I prepare a perfect proposal first?
“No worries, Brother Ting.” Huo Li seized the wedding ring probably worth a million in his hand as he imagined using it to lure some innocent girls on his way back, “I’ll have everything done for you. But, Brother Ting, I must say—my sister-in-law has been spending her time taking care of Xuxu. So, maybe you know—you could hold back for now?”
“Thanks for your reminder. But I don’t need it.” Huo Yunting pinched his forehead and discarded the cigarette butt to the ground before he left.
Huo Li watched the alpha heading into the ward and turned back, only to be shocked.
“Wait, why are you here? Aren’t you supposed to be at the office now?”
It was Lin Yazhi rubbing her two dark circles, yawning, “I took the day off because I want to see Zhaoyang and Xuxu. You guys were having such a passionate conversation that I decide to stay quiet.” Her voice was weaker than usual—clearly the sign of insufficient sleep.
“Don’t worry about it. She never thought of blaming you on this. You don’t have to keep this in mind,” comforted Huo Li—a rare deed from the fanboy upon seeing the Yazhi’s worn-out look. He almost wanted to laugh out loud.
“But Xuxu is so young…”
It’s my fault. My carelessness that has kept him here on the bed. Sniff…
“Well, why don’t you check him out then? I’ll be with you.” He beckoned to her, “It should be fine now.”
I don’t think Brother Ting would fire his gun in front of a minor.
They knocked at the door.
“Come in,” announced Zhaoyang sweetly.
As the door opened, Zhaoyang stood up and broke free from Huo Yunting’s scheduled hanky panky as quickly tidied up her wrinkled shirt.
“Yazhi…” Seeing the haggard look of her friend, Lu Zhaoyang reached out her hand, “It’s okay. I don’t blame you. Xuxu doesn’t either. It’s fine, really.”
It was never Yazhi’s fault to begin with. They were clearly attacked.
“Zhaoyang!” Lin Yazhi hugged Zhaoyang tight, “Such a relief to hear from you. I thought you wanted to cut ties with me for good.”
“There—there. Xuxu is doing fine now,” said Zhaoyang patting Yazhi’s back, “He just needs a small break and he will be kicking alive again.”
“Good…how about I look after her instead? You guys are always busy with work, unlike me, I’m always free, free like a bird!” She was in urge to compensate them.
“I’ll look after Xuxu myself while you can visit him anytime to play with him, Yazhi. Though…I need to remind you that he needs more sleep than usual.”
He needs rest.
“Okay, Zhaoyang! I’ll drop by to help you out whenever!” Feeling relieved, Lin Yazhi was freed from her guilt.
