Old Man Huo narrowed his eyes and stared at Gu Lan Qing for a few seconds. Then, he put down his knife and fork, took out a tissue, and lightly wiped his lips.
Fear once again appeared in Gu Lan's eyes, frightening her to the core.
"Qingqing, you're right. "Han Mountain Ao Xue is indeed not in my hands." He sighed and leaned back in his chair. Steward Wang handed him a cup of hot tea.
Behind the rising steam, a pair of hawk-like eyes fell on Gu Lanqing's face.
It was only when Qu Yan pulled Gu Lanqing back and placed her behind him to protect her.
Under the luxurious crystal lamp, Huo Yan narrowed his eyes and calmly looked at Old Man Huo. The aura he exuded was dense and chilling.
One old and one young, the two men were like two wolves that were about to be killed, waiting for the best opportunity to kill the other.
Gu Lan Qing couldn't help but tremble. She had no doubt that if they really did fight, she would be the most innocent cannon fodder.
Sure enough, old man Huo said lightly, "But, without Han Shan Ao Xue, you will also give birth to a child for Huo Yan."
Gu Lan Qing's heart skipped a beat.
Old man Huo raised his hand to signal Steward Wang, who left quickly.
He placed the cup of hot tea on the table, while his eyes shone, "Zichen has already woken up, you definitely know that." After all, the first thing he said when he woke up was to ask someone to get his cell phone and call you. "
Gu Lan Qing's heart skipped a beat as she watched Steward Wang pass a plate to Old Man Huo.
Old Man Huo opened a video.
In the video, a man's face appeared.
Pale and thin.
However, within his long and narrow eyes, there seemed to be light flowing within. That kind of gentleness.
"Zichen!" Gu Lanqing opened her mouth, expecting to scream, but she couldn't make out the two words that came out.
The angle of the video was very good.
It was as if Huo Zichen was playing a video with her.
Her pale lips formed a faint curve, "Grandfather, I am truly sorry. It was my unfilial deed that caused you to worry for so many years. Please don't blame me for being quiet. That silly girl, she is very timid. Back then, when something happened to me in front of her, it was already the biggest punishment for her. She must have been having a sleepless night during these five years and had dreamt of that car crash. "
"Yes, I miss her so much that I'm going crazy thinking about her. However, I can't appear in front of her like this. She would cry. The last thing I wanted was for her to cry, and I didn't want her to see that I would feel guilty. I want to act like a normal person and be in front of her so I can tell her that I'm fine. It's all over now. "
Gu Lanqing looked at the gentle looking man in the video and couldn't help shedding tears.
Old Man Huo sighed, "Qingqing, Zichen really loves you a lot. Everything is for you. Do you want to see him? "
Yes!
She was about to go crazy!
When she received Huo Zichao's call, she was already unable to control herself. Now that she saw his video, she really wanted to appear in front of him in the next second.
The coldness and scheming in Old Man Huo's eyes caused her heart to tremble. Grandpa Huo wouldn't record Zichen's video for no reason.
"If you want to see him, then give birth to a child for Huo Yan. As long as you agree to be a test-tube baby, the baby doesn't even need to be born in person. As long as it's a success, I will immediately arrange for you and Zichen to meet. "
Gu Lanqing abruptly stood up, her wooden chair scraping against the floor with an ear-piercing sound.
Her eyes were bloodshot as she roared at Old Master Huo, "Grandpa Huo, what do you think of me? The tools to tie Huo Yan and Huo Yan up? That's why you are looking down on me like this! I'd rather not see Zichen in this life, than to have Huo Yan's child! "
"If you don't want to, you can. Last week, he had a lung infection and had a minor operation. If he knew that you climbed into his cousin's bed the night he became a vegetable, would he still have the courage to continue living? "
"No!" Gu Lan's voice was sharp. She looked at Old Man Huo like she was looking at a ghost.
At this moment, Old Man Huo was even more terrifying to her than a ferocious ghost.
"Then you have no choice. We must give birth to a child for Huo Yan. " Old Man Huo raised his teacup, his voice calm.
"If you force me like this, will Huo Yan agree?" He knows full well that you want to use his child to serve the Huo Family, so why would he be willing to test tubes with me? " Gu Lan Qing raised her gaze and looked at Huo Yan's handsome face.
His gaze was still as cold as ever.
It was as if he didn't hear the argument between her and Old Man Huo.
"That depends on Huo Yan's decision." If he won't, then divorce him and marry Hawing. He gave birth to Hawking's child. "Like I said, no matter who inherits from the Huo Family, you are the only one." Old Man Huo said coldly.
Gu Lanqing's eyes widened as she looked at Huo Shou and shook her red wine glass. "My fiancée, I promise you that I will treat you better than Huo Yan."
The way she looked into her eyes made her feel as if she had been licked by a hungry wolf.
Gu Lanqing's face was pale as a sheet. She slumped back in her chair, tears streaming down her face.
She just wanted to see Zichen, that's all. Why was it so difficult?
Even if she couldn't see Zichen, she just wanted him to live on properly.
Why is it so hard?
It would have been great if she was the one who had become a vegetable.
It was the first time in her life that she had felt hatred towards him.
Hate him for insisting on saving her.
"Why are you forcing me to do this …?" Is it just because Zichen became a vegetable just to save me? " Every word was like a sob of blood.
"If you want to blame someone, blame yourself. You are too greedy. She also wanted the position of the Huo Family's Young Mistress, and also wanted Zichen's love. Qingqing, there is no such thing as cheap stuff in this world. Qing Qing, this life of yours was exchanged with Zi Chen's. "It belongs to the Huo Family. Whatever I tell you to do, you can only do it." Old Man Huo paused for a moment and looked at Gu Lan Qing's pale face with a sinister voice.
"Qingqing, I'll tell you today. As long as I'm alive, I won't allow you to be with Zichen. "Because you are not worthy."
Not worthy.
Gu Lan Qing's body trembled all of a sudden. Regardless of why she slept with Huo Yan five years ago, she had still let Zi Chen down.
"Now, go ask Huo Yan." If he agrees to test tubes with you, then you're still his wife and you'll see Zichen-chen. If he doesn't agree, then marry Hawing. "
Gu Lanqing's body was shaking so badly that there was no trace of blood on her small face.
Her pitch-black eyes looked pitifully at Huo Yan.
"Huo Yan, I beg of you …" Her voice was hoarse and he could not say a word.
Huo Yan took her arm and wrapped it around his own body. His handsome face neared her, "Gu Lanqing, you're not only ruining yourself, you're also ruining me! What do you take my child for? "
There was nothing she could do.
Tears rolled down Gu Lan's face. Other than crying, there was nothing she could do.
"Please …" She repeated the word again and again.
Huo Yan laughed coldly as he looked at Old Man Huo and Huo Qin. Cold sweat broke out on their backs.
