Chapter 56 - Treading on the Sword

Huo Ting shook his head with a wry smile. The corner of his mouth was lifted to sting the South Bridge's eye as he received the flowers. South Bridge nodded and said, "Thank you."

Yu Cen Ran snatched the flower out of his hands within two seconds. He held it in his hands and looked at it a few times. Yu Cen Ran clicked her tongue twice and then threw it on the ground.

Nanqiao, "…"

Huo Ting, "..."

Yu Cen Ran sat on one side, wearing a white shirt and grey suit pants. She had the elegance and agility of a mature man. Her long body leaned against the sofa, her arms crossed over her chest, and her long legs folded elegantly.

Yu Cen Ran was the first to know about this. Even the gossip reporters in the country might not be able to catch the news. However, as the sole successor of the Huo Group, Huo Ting was one of the busiest.

Very good. Yu Cen Ran's thin lips curled into a cold sneer as she looked at Huo Ting, trying her best to remain calm.

The South Bridge also felt it was strange and looked towards Huo Ting.

At this moment, Huo Ting's expression became unnatural. He was smiling in a pretentious manner. His small movements were unceasing, and he appeared to be flustered.

How could he explain that? Huo Ting secretly regretted not being able to keep his feet down.

He seemed to have seen through everything. Before Huo Ting could come up with an excuse, Yu Cen Ran continued, "It seems like you've always been connected to Xue Yuwei. Huo Ting, she's the one who hurt you before."

Pausing, Yu Cen Ran pursed her lips and let out a disdainful sneer, "No, that's not right. At that time, you and Gu Qiao coincidentally had planned the event regarding the portrait of a famous family together, right? What, you want to frame the south bridge, right? "

"Is what he said true?" Hearing this, South Bridge's expression changed greatly. South Bridge struggled to its feet and hurriedly asked Huo Ting.

Huo Ting did not explain immediately. At that moment, thoughts ran through his mind.

She looked at Huo Ting with a complicated and profound gaze. Why did it feel like Huo Ting was no longer that gentle and clean man from before? She could no longer easily understand his thoughts …

If, just in case, it really was Huo Ting and Xue Yuwei's plan …

Although Nanqiao had once suspected that Gu Qiuqiao's incident had happened too suddenly, pushing the South Bridge into the limelight all of a sudden. If it was really Huo Ting's scheme, then Nanqiao really didn't want to believe that his former boyfriend would do such a thing!

Shaking his head, Nanqiao told himself not to think too much about it. "Can you tell me?"

Yu Cen Ran narrowed her scallion white hands on Huo Ting's arm and felt a burst of unhappiness in her heart. That gaze made her want to use a knife to chop off Huo Ting's hand!

He was waiting for him to explain. South Bridge had told him that if it really was Huo Ting, then they would have nothing to do with each other for the rest of their lives!

Fortunately, he said, "All of this was Xue Yuwei's plan, and I was also kept in the dark. South Bridge, back then when you were snatched away by Yu Cen, Xue Yuwei said that she had a way to help me get you back. I listened to Xue Yuwei's words with a burning head, but I didn't expect that woman to make a ruckus!"

Some time had passed, and Huo Ting's face was still filled with anger and resentment as he spoke. It seemed like his resentment had grown from the bottom of his heart as it surged towards the outside world.

Huo Ting pointed at Yu Cen Ran and rebuked, "It's all your fault, Yu Cen Ran! You're the one who snatched the South Bridge away first! If not for you, South Bridge would have been my fiancee long ago! "

The more Huo Ting spoke, the more excited he became. He was about to start a fight with Yu Cen Ran, who was quick with her moves. Huo Ting jumped onto the sofa and hit his head on the white wall, causing a "Clang" sound.

Yu Cen Ran didn't even bother to pay attention to Huo Ting. In his opinion, Huo Ting was a defeated opponent, and Yu Cen didn't think that defeating him was necessary.

Huo Ting didn't give up. He raised his fist to hit Yu Cen Ran, but she dodged it. She didn't expect that Huo Ting's fist was actually aimed at the south bridge. Seeing that it was the south bridge, Huo Ting couldn't withdraw his hand in time …

At this critical moment, Yu Cen Ran took the initiative to step in front of the South Bridge. Her fist landed on his broad back, and a dull thud was heard. Yu Cen Ran's lips were by his ear, but the South Bridge didn't hear him cry out in pain.

It should be painful to use the full strength of a fist like that, right?

Huo Ting was stunned for a moment, the anger in his eyes ignited once again. He raised his fist to hit someone before Yu Cen Ran could react. South Bridge rubbed his temple as his eyebrows jumped up and down, "That's enough, Huo Ting! How did you become like this!"

Huo Ting stopped moving. He opened his mouth and squirmed, "I …"

"Stop! I don't want to hear your explanation. Please leave this room immediately!"

Huo Ting's body jolted as he walked out of the room in a daze. Yu Cen Ran watched happily with a straight face. Who knew that the South Bridge was also pointing at the door to let him out?

Nanqiao's mind was in a mess right now. "Please get out. I want to be alone."

Yu Cen Ran cast a shallow glance at the South Bridge. After a while, she finally spoke, "Alright, rest well. Tomorrow, I'll have Housekeeper Zhang come to pick you up."

"Mm. Alright."

Yu Cen Ran pinched the corner of the bed for South Bridge, bent over, and kissed South Bridge lightly on the forehead like a feather. She stood up, closed the door, and walked out.

Huo Ting didn't leave. Instead, he leaned against the hospital wall. Yu Cen Ran glanced over and ignored him. She walked straight ahead. Huo Ting followed behind her.

Outside the hospital, Yu Cen Ran walked to the front of the black Rolls. She suddenly stopped, leaned her tall body against the car, and lit a cigarette with her long fingers.

The scattered cigarette butts were especially eye-catching in the dark night. Yu Cen Ran exhaled a mouthful of smoke and raised her eyelids. She said in a low voice, "Huo Ting, you, Xue Yuwei and Gu Qiuqiao, do you really think I don't know what the three of you are up to?"

Huo Ting didn't step forward. Instead, he stood in front of Yu Cen Ran, staring unblinkingly at him. He understood in his heart what kind of person Yu Cen Ran was in A City.

However, his hands could cover the sky. His power could reach the sky, so why did he need the South Bridge?

Huo Ting was unresigned in his heart. He clenched his fists tightly and dug his nails into his flesh. A sharp pain came from his palms, "I love Nanqiao, so I won't harm her."

Yu Cen Ran threw her cigarette on the ground and stamped on it, saying, "Your mouth always sounds better than your singing. Look at the South Bridge, it's now lying in the hospital. Do you dare to guarantee that it has nothing to do with you?"

In Yu Cen Ran's words, there was reproach, dissatisfaction, and more of a warning, a threat.

Huo Ting might only want to retake the South Bridge, but as for Xue Yuwei, how could she possibly do that? Every single person's actions and every single innocent person injured by her were all part of the South Bridge.

Yu Cen Ran's face was filled with impatience and her voice was stern with warning, "Let me advise you, don't do such childish things anymore. Don't disturb the South Bridge. You can't do anything, and it will be easy for me to deal with you."

The night wind blew, causing one's body to tremble. It was as if the autumn had turned cold.

Yu Cen Ran's cigarette was extinguished one by one. He leaned his whole body against the car and put one hand in the pocket of his suit pants while the other hand held the cigarette. He didn't say a word, but his aura was extremely intimidating.

Huo Ting pursed his lips. After a long while, he opened his mouth and said, "Yu Cen Ran, do you know about the Bridge of Eternity? Or are you just not willing to let it go because you forgot about you?"

Yu Cen Ran raised his eyebrows and looked sideways at Huo Ting. A cold sneer appeared on his thin lips as he said disdainfully, "I have no obligation to answer your question."

With that, Yu Cen Ran turned around, opened the car door, crossed his legs, and got in. With that, Yu Cen Ran turned around, opened the car door, crossed his legs, and got in the car.

What he wanted was — to get Huo Ting out of here, as far away as possible.

It was best to disappear forever from sight of the south bridge, never to be seen again.

The car started with a boom and moved at an extremely fast speed. Soon, it disappeared into the night without a trace. The car sped past the cold wind and went straight into Huo Ting's sweater.

Huo Ting felt his entire body burning. In his eyes, Yu Cen Ran's possessive desire only led him to snatch the item for himself.

Yu Cen Ran loved to trample others under his feet. He wanted to trample Huo Ting on the ground, which was why he took away his woman on purpose. Yu Cen Ran did not love South Bridge at all!

Huo Ting narrowed his eyes. His expression was sinister and unfamiliar. His voice was cold as he said, "Yu Cen Ran, just you wait and see. I'll definitely bring South Bridge back to my side!"

"Miss patient, don't move. It will be done soon." A nurse in a pink nurse's uniform coaxed.

Nanqiao closed his eyes tightly. He could not help but feel fear in his heart. Occasionally, he would narrow his eyes to take a look. The long needle was filled with a transparent liquid. The tip of the needle seemed to be burning with a cold light, causing one to feel a chill.

Zhang Fenglan, who was sitting at the side, laughed, "My daughter, I've never been spoiled since I was young. It's really difficult to get an injection because I think that's what she's afraid of."

Nanqiao's face reddened, and he rebuked his mother. Closing his eyes, he stretched out his arm, as if he was ready to die. "Please hurry and make your move!"

"Hurry up, I'm afraid I won't be able to help it."

The nurse had a smile on her face. In the eyes of the South Bridge, she looked very sinister. She held the long needle in her hand and approached step by step, like a demon …

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" South Bridge's shoulder was suddenly pressed down and pushed back. Unexpectedly, South Bridge lost control of its voice and screamed out.

Turning around, he saw Yu Cen Ran's cold and handsome face staring at the South Bridge. His eyes were filled with mockery, amusement, and ridicule as he said with a red face, "What are you doing, Yu Cen Ran!"
