Huo Jinyao sensed that something was wrong with Su Qingsang, who kept her head down after coming out of the bathroom. Something seemed to be on her mind.
âWhat is it, sweetheart?â Huo Jinyao came up to her and wrapped his arms around her waist.
As soon as he approached, Su Qingsang recalled their entanglement of the past few days and dodged him subtly.
âNothing.â
âYou arenât happy?â He hadnât annoyed her, had he?
Huo Jinyao once again reached out to her shoulder.
âIâm gonna be late for work.â Su Qingsang pushed his hand away. Her obvious resistance left Huo Jinyao speechless for a second, but just for a second.
âSweetheart, are you mad?â
âNo.â
âYouâre lying.â Huo Jinyao blocked her way. âYou are mad.â
âHuo Jinyao.â
Su Qingsang realized this morning that she had been getting more and more indulgent of Huo Jinyao. She had begun to accept his existence and the changes in her surprised and even scared her a little.
She had been used to staying settled, in a circle that she was safe inside. Huo Jinyao was now the biggest variable in her life and he made her feel unsafe.
âSweetheart, tell me. Why arenât you happy?â Huo Jinyao reached out his hands and wanted to hug her. How could Su Qingsang let him do that, though?
âIâm really not unhappy.â She stepped back and looked at Huo Jinyao. âIâm gonna be late for work.â
She tried to pass by Huo Jinyao but was blocked again. âYou havenât had breakfast yet,â he said.
Su Qingsang turned her to look at the table, where there were all kinds of food Huo Jinyao had bought. Whenever he slept at home these days, he would go out to buy breakfast.
She pursed her lips into a straight line, but could not refuse his nice gesture in the end. Not only did she eat the breakfast he bought, but she also let him drive her to work.
She sat in the car and looked outside the window silently. The passing traffic stream somehow caused her mood to swing.
How should she face Huo Jinyao, a husband who had turned up randomly?
Arriving at the hospital, Su Qingsang could hardly wait to get out of the car, but Huo Jinyao once again took her hand.
âSweetheart, you seem to have forgotten something.â
âHuo Jinyao.â She knew what it was, but today she somehow didnât...
Smack! Huo Jinyao kissed hard on her face.
âGoodbye kiss.â Huo Jinyao grinned like a cat who had successfully stolen a fish.
âHuo Jinyao.â Su Qingsang looked around, fearing that it had been seen by her colleagues.
He didnât care at all. Instead, he put his face closer, âI want one, too.â
âEnough.â
âSweetheart, you are really stingy.â Huo Jinyao looked at her sorrowfully, as if heâd suffered from some type of injustice.
Before she could respond, he leaned over and gave another smack on her other cheek.
âYou are stingy, but I am very generous.â Waving his hand, Huo Jinyao grinned, revealing his white teeth. âRemember to miss me.â
He isâ
Seeing him acting like this, Su Qingsang lost the last bit of her patience. She could only glare at him and quickly get out of the car.
...
Maybe Huo Jinyaoâs words had worked; Su Qingsang kept thinking of Huoâs face at work.
Ignoring the slight fluctuations in her heart, she put away one of her instruments and looked at the pregnant woman in front of her. âAt present, everything is normal. Last time, I told you matters that needed your attention. Now that the baby is getting bigger, itâs better for you to do some proper exercise.â
âThank you, Dr. Su.â After hearing the points she had to pay attention to, the pregnant woman left with great gratitude. Su Qingsang called, âNext.â
Someone came in. Su Qingsang looked up and signaled for the person to sit down, only to find that it was Su Yuxin.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
