Mrs. Huo is a Crybaby

"No... Blehhh!"

Tang Xinrou threw her hand away and rolled her eyes. "No, I really think it's weird!"

"Is it weird? You'll get used to it," Song Yaoyso said calmly.

"What...?" Tang Xinrou opened her mouth. Used to what?

"Tang Tang, we should go back."

An Feiran suddenly interrupted her and stood up to hold her wrist.

Shen Xun's eyes were dark. His gaze swept past Song Yaoyao. In the end, he did not say anything and stood up as well.

"Shall I drive you back?"

Song Yaoyao shook her head. "The driver is waiting outside."

Shen Xun nodded. "Then let's go out together."

The four of them walked out of the restaurant together. The night sky was heavy like a huge black cloth. It was depressing and strange.

It was a cloudy day.

Song Yaoyao felt a little uneasy. She pinched her fingertips, remaining silent because of this inexplicable feeling.

At this moment, her phone suddenly vibrated.

The call came from Huo Jiu.

Song Yaoyao's first reaction was that something had happened to Huo Yunque. Her face instantly turned pale, and she barely suppressed the worry in her heart as she pressed the answer button.

"Miss Song, I think you need to come to the hospital as soon as possible!"

Tang Xinrou took a few steps and did not see Song Yaoyao following her. She turned around in surprise and saw her pale face. "What's wrong?"

The smile on Tang Xinrou's face immediately disappeared.

Did something happen again?

"Yaoyao?"

Song Yaoyao was stunned for a moment before she came back to her senses.

The next second, she ran towards the car and quickly said, "Something happened to Xu Yue. I need to go to the hospital!"

"What?" Tang Xinrou cried out.

To be honest, the moment she saw Song Yaoyao's expression, the first person she thought of was Huo Yunque. But she did not expect that the one who was in trouble was Xu Yue.

Her legs were weak. If it was not for An Feiran supporting her, she would have definitely fallen.

It was definitely not a small matter to make Song Yaoyao so anxious.

The car that was carrying Song Yaoyao was like a roaring beast as it sped towards the darkness.

An Feiran and Shen Xun looked at each other and nodded silently.

"Don't worry, we'll go to the hospital to take a look too."

...

The three of them arrived at the hospital, but they did not see Song Yaoyao at all.

Doctor Wei was the one who received them.

As he led them to the operating theater, he said, "Something happened to Miss Xu. I can't say much about the specific situation. It's better to wait for her to come out of the operating theater and let her tell you personally."

"What happened to her? How could it be so serious that she... needed to enter the operating theater?"

Moreover, Song Yaoyao was needed.

Tang Xinrou's vision went black. She held onto An Feiran's arm tightly, and her nails dug into his flesh subconsciously.

An Feiran patted her back comfortingly, letting her lean on him.

"The three of you can wait first. The surgery has just begun, and it won't be over so soon."

There were already two people standing outside the operating theater.

Huo Jiu and...

Xu Yue's mother, the current Mrs. Xu.

Her eyes were red, even though she had stopped crying. But from the way she held her bag, it could be seen that she was trembling.

The surgery went on for a full six hours. At first, Tang Xinrou was still hopeful, but after that, she was filled with despair. Her eyes were red and swollen as she leaned on An Feiran's shoulder in silence.

Eventually, a clear 'ding' sound broke the silence.

Swish—

Almost everyone stood up. Tang Xinrou stared at the operating theater.

The door was pushed open, but Xu Yue was nowhere to be seen.

Tang Xinrou cried at that moment.

She didn't notice the man who had been silently standing guard outside the operating theater. When he saw this scene, his hands curled up and then loosened.

No one noticed his subtle movements.

"Yaoyao, X-Xu Yue..." Tang Xinrou pounced on Song Yaoyao and grabbed her hand. Her throat was so hoarse that she couldn't speak at all.

Although she usually liked to argue with Xu Yue and complained about her. But after all these years of working together, she had long regarded Xu Yue as a good friend.

Song Yaoyao had been in the operating room for a few hours. When Tang Xinrou suddenly bumped into her, her legs went weak and she almost fell down.

Fortunately, she managed to hold onto the wall in time.

Shen Xun silently drew his hand back.

"How is Xu Yue?" Compared to Tang Xinrou, the men were calmer.

"The operation was very successful. She has been sent to the ward through the sterile passage. Later, you can go see her."

"Thank God..." Tang Xinrou muttered to herself in relief.

Huo Jiu's thin lips pursed tightly.

Outside the ICU Ward, Tang Xinrou held onto the glass as she stared at Xu Yue who was lying on the bed like a corpse.

Her forehead was wrapped in gauze and her arms were also in a cast. Ever since Tang Xinrou had met her, she had never seen her in such a miserable state.

"What happened? Who the f*ck did this? I'll kill them!"Follow current s on Noᴠelꜰire

Tang Xinrou's eyes reddened as she turned her head around. Her teeth were chattering as intense anger and hatred shot out from her eyes.

She was serious.

Song Yaoyao rubbed her wrists. She lowered her eyes and didn't show much emotion. "It's been dealt with."

"What?"

Song Yaoyao pointed at Huo Jiu. "Ask him."

Tang Xinrou didn't understand. What did all this have to do with Huo Jiu? Huo Jiu was Song Yaoyao's bodyguard (even though his current job was more like Song Yaoyao's assistant.

But thinking back, she didn't see Huo Jiu at the dinner party today.

She wiped away her tears and stared fixedly at Huo Jiu.

When she saw the bloodstain on his suit, her pupils contracted.

He was wearing black, and his back had been facing them the entire time, so Tang Xinrou, who had been focused on Xu Yue, hadn't noticed it. Now that she was close enough, she could smell the strong stench of blood on his body.

The shirt inside the suit was also splattered with blood.

"What did you do?" Tang Xinrou asked.

Huo Jiu's expression was calm. He took off his glasses and smiled at Tang Xinrou. "Nothing, Miss Tang. Don't worry. I'm a good citizen. I wouldn't kill anyone."

Dating back to the first time Tang Xinrou met Huo Jiu, he had always worn his glasses. This was the first time she saw him without his glasses at such a close distance. There was no smile on his face. In the depths of his pitch-black eyes, there seemed to be an endless chill.

She could not help but take two steps back.

"F*ck..."

Tang Xinrou was frightened by Huo Jiu's look. Something flashed through her mind, but she was not in the mood to think about it.

"It was Xu Weiqing! That b*tch! If I find her, I will tear her apart!"

Cough—

Shen Xun's expression did not change. An Feiran, on the other hand, had never seen such a rude way of scolding people. He coughed uncomfortably.

"Xu Weiqing?"

After Madam Xu grumbled and complained, they finally learned what had happened

Xu Weiqing was the child of Xu Yue's father's ex-wife. After her parents divorced, Xu Weiqing followed her mother to live abroad. However, Father Xu's ex-wife was not stupid. Even though they divorced, she could not keep her daughter away from her rich biological father for selfish reasons. Therefore, although Xu Weiqing did not return to the country often, she had been in constant contact with Father Xu.
