Her face was pale and grave. Her lips were bloodless. She said nothing.
Even though it was so silent, it gave people a formless pressure that pressed heavily on his heart.
He, Murong Zheng, was a hot-blooded man who was resolute and determined to fight to the death. He was not afraid of anything.
At this moment, he was afraid of looking into her eyes that had frozen from the water. He didn't think that his daughter would hate him so much.
He opened his mouth and shouted, "Qingqing!"
But he was interrupted coldly by her, "Chief Murong, thank you for your care and protection. My husband is here to pick me up, I'm going home with him. As for how my mother-in-law treats me and how my husband chooses me, that's our Huo family's decision. We don't need to trouble Chief Murong, an outsider, to worry about such a small matter. "
As she spoke, she pushed the wheelchair towards Huo Yuncheng. Her tone was like a bucket of ice water being poured on Mu Rong Zheng's head.
Outsider?
In her heart, he was only an outsider.
These two words pierced his heart like knives, causing his palms to sweat profusely.
"Qing Qing, you know that I'm your father, your biological father?"
"Father? Would you please not insult the word? And I want to keep in my mind my last good thoughts about the word. "
Heartless, how could this child be so heartless.
"I know I let your mother down, but I didn't do it on purpose. I was on a mission and I didn't know your mother was pregnant with you."
Murong was currently explaining with sorrow. His deep eyes were filled with tears.
An iron man could actually have such a powerless moment.
"Then you should continue to act as if you don't know, as if you and I have never met in this life."
Bai Qing tilted her head slightly to the side and cast a cold glare at him. She then raised her hand and gripped Huo YunChen's hand tightly.
"Hubby, let's go home. I'm so tired."
"Alright, let's go."
Huo Yun Chen held her hand and walked to the back of the wheelchair, gently pushing it.
Before they had taken two steps, Murong Zheng called out to them and shouted in a stern voice:
"Huo Yunchen, you have to remember this. Although she is unwilling to recognize me, she is still my daughter. If you dare to make her suffer even the slightest bit, I will do everything in my power to make your Huo Family pay."
Huo YunChen paused in his steps. He didn't turn his head but merely replied in an indifferent tone, "Of course my wife is under my protection. No one will be able to protect her."
"Liu Kai, go fetch Young Master and Aunt Rong."
"Yes …"
Liu Kai quickly crawled into the backyard and carried Tian Tian, who was still taking an afternoon nap, up.
Aunt Rong followed closely behind. She looked at Murong Zheng before she left and hesitated to speak.
In the end, he only said one sentence: "Head, don't worry. With me here, Qing Qing will be fine."
Mu Rong Zheng comforted them as he nodded his head, watching them leave with sorrow and helplessness.
After that day, Mu Rong Zheng became ill.
The military doctors could not find anything wrong with it.
On the way back from the military compound, Bai Qing was in a very depressed mood.
Leaning on Huo Yun Chen's shoulder, he closed his eyes and fell asleep without saying a word.
When Huo Yunchen carried her back to her room, she was still asleep.
Huo YunChen was worried, so he called for Doctor An to examine her carefully. After confirming that it was only a superficial wound, he felt much more relaxed.
Seeing that she was sleeping, he got up and sent her to Doctor An, asking her about her condition.
With a grave expression, Doctor An said, "The illness on your body is easy to treat. The illness in your heart is hard to treat."
Huo YunChen sighed deeply. After a long time, he spoke in a deep voice, "I'll have to trouble Doctor An to take care of this matter."
Doctor An nodded his head and turned to leave.
He turned around and entered the study room. Liu Kai followed him in.
"Yes, sir. It was that woman surnamed Gu. "
"She? "He actually dares to be so arrogant now."
"I heard that the last time the Old Master came, he specifically came to see her. It's probably because she thinks that she still has a chance to replace Madam Ye that she went all out. " Liu Kai guessed.
"Where's Gu Bei An?"
"It's out. It's the master's personal connections."
Liu Kai was extremely careful as he said this, afraid that Huo Yun Chen would be angered by his words.
"Hmph, my dad really does have feelings for this mother and son."
Huo Yun Chen sniggered as he stared outside the window.
The setting sun was like blood, the autumn wind was cold, and the withered leaves were withered …
His slender fingers tightly gripped the balcony's railing, and he said in a heavy tone:
"Then it's time for us to present them with a huge gift."
"Yes, we'll definitely give them a big surprise this time."
Liu Kai's face lit up and his tone became a lot more relaxed.
After so many people had been scouted out for so long, he finally found Shen Yihan's watch, which was equipped with a high-tech camera, in the hands of a thief.
As Huo Yun Chen expected, the camera on the watch recorded all the crimes Gu Bei An had committed in his attempt to kill Shen Yihan.
It was because Shen Yihan found out a big secret that he killed him.
Now, they dared to attack the madame. They had come out to their deaths.
The evidence was conclusive. Even if Master Huo could reach the heavens, it would be difficult for him to protect Bei An.
When Huo Yunchen returned to his room, Bai Qingqing was already awake. Half lying down, Aunt Rong was gently feeding Bai some chicken soup.
The corner of his lips slightly raised as he walked over with a gentle expression. He took the bowl from Aunt Rong and personally fed it.
He blew gently into her mouth to cool it, then slowly brought it to her lips. His movements were clumsy, carefully avoiding burning her or spilling soup on her body.
"Why did you come back early?" Bai Qing asked while she ate her soup.
Perhaps because she was still sick, or perhaps because she had used up all of her strength when she spoke to Murong Zheng, her words now sounded extremely soft and powerless.
"I missed you. Thinking of how you were so stupid that you went into the hospital to save my mom from getting injured and how the doctors had to pull the glass out of your body, I couldn't hold back for a second. I wish I could grow wings and fly to your side. But, I can't even grow wings or power, I can only watch as my wife suffers, and I don't even have the chance to suffer for her. "
When had he ever said so much? But his heart really ached.
Her starry eyes seemed to be shrouded by a layer of smoke …
Xiao Bai pursed his lips and smiled, "I'm fine. Let me tell you, I scolded that vixen for our mother. She was so angry that her face turned green."
She rubbed his brow, not wanting to see him worry for her.
"The reason why the chandelier fell is because that vixen bribed the staff to make it. This woman is really ruthless."
"Mm, she hurt you. I won't let her have a good ending."
Huo Yun Chen held her hand and kissed it with a look of heartache on his face.
"Wife, don't you hate my mother? She doesn't treat you well, she's even making things difficult for you. Why risk your life to save her? "
"She's your mother. If something happened to her, you would definitely be very sad, right? I don't want to upset you. "
"But if there's anything wrong with you, I'll be very sorry, too. Qingqing, I don't dare to think about what would happen to me if something happened to you. So, you have to protect yourself well and live well. "
Huo Yun Chen gripped her hands tightly, gently pressing his head against her forehead as he spoke.
Thinking that if he lost her, his heart would convulse.
"You too, you have to protect yourself well. Living happily is my greatest happiness."
Xiao Bai raised his head and looked deeply into his eyes. His breathing was shallow, and they were entangled. He was willing to drown in that vast sea of stars in his eyes …
