Chapter 597: I Don’t Believe That You Would Let This Opportunity Slip Away

“I didn’t do it for you.”

After Zhang Yichen finished his sentence, he was afraid that Huo Jinyao would misunderstand, so he added, “I’m a soldier for the people. Have you forgotten? No matter who it was, I would have saved her under those circ.u.mstances.”

His voice was a little hoa.r.s.e. After sleeping for a few days, he was no longer as energetic as before. However, when he said this, his voice was still firm and convincing.

As if he was trying to see through him, Huo Jinyao stared at his face. No matter how hard he stared at Zhang Yichen, his expression didn’t change.

“Yes. Indeed, no matter who it was, you would have saved them. But you wouldn’t cut your own flesh and feed your blood to just anyone, right?”

Huo Jinyao’s words made Zhang Yichen glance at him. His brows furrowed, as if he was about to speak.

Huo Jinyao smiled helplessly. “You don’t have to deny it in front of me. I won’t misunderstand anything. I won’t doubt my wife just because of this. I just want to thank you, the kind that comes from the bottom of my heart.”

“Thank you, Uncle. If it weren’t for you, Qingsang would have… No matter what, you saved her. I don’t care if your motive was your duty as a soldier or your feelings for Qingsang. I’ll thank you regardless.”

Huo Jinyao restrained his expression and looked at him seriously. He said word by word, “Uncle, I owe you my life.”

Zhang Yichen fell silent. He suddenly turned his face away and looked at the sky outside the window.

The weather was gloomy, as if it was going to rain.

“You don’t owe me, and she doesn’t owe me either. I did it of my own free will. It’s what I should have done.”

He couldn’t think too much during the situation at that time. The only thought in his mind was that he couldn’t let Su Qingsang die.

What he said was also true. Even if that person wasn’t Su Qingsang, he wouldn’t have just stand by and watch.

“You said I don’t owe me anything, but I can’t treat it as if I don’t owe you anything.”

Huo Jinyao’s expression was extremely serious. He nodded heavily at Zhang Yichen.

“Thank you, Uncle.”

His eyes as deep as a sea of stars and filled with grat.i.tude, he gazed at Zhang Yichen.

His brows tightly knitted together, Zhang Yichen retracted his gaze and looked at Huo Jinyao.

“Do you think that I’m the kind of person who would blackmail people indebted to me?!”

Huo Jinyao shook his head. “I didn’t mean that. But I will never let go of Su Qingsang, no matter what the reason is. No matter who she meets again, she would still be my wife.”

Zhang Yichen’s expression didn’t change. “I told you, I’m a soldier. I was just doing what a soldier should have done.”

..

When Huo Jinyao returned to the ward, Su Qingsang was still asleep. He sat beside Su Qingsang and stared at her sleeping face.

He held her hand and pressed it against his cheek.

Su Qingsang woke up because of his movements. She blinked and met Huo Jinyao’s gaze.

Su Qingsang looked at Huo Jinyao for a while and realized that he had been holding her hand the entire time.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” Was there something on her face?

Huo Jinyao kissed the back of her hand and shook his head gently.

“No. I just wanted to look at you. I was afraid that you would disappear.”

She really scared him this time. Huo Jinyao held her hand tightly. He still couldn’t forget the fear of losing her.

“Silly.” Feeling a little helpless, Su Qingsang reached out to pinch his hand. “How did our Young Master Huo become so silly?”

“I am pretty silly.” Huo Jinyao held her hand. “Your body is fine now. After you rest well tomorrow, we’ll go back to Rong City, okay?”

“Okay.”Su Qingsang didn’t object. “No, Director Sun and the others –”

“They’re staying behind as volunteers now. I believe they won’t be returning to Rong City for the time being.”

“I want to volunteer as well.”

At a time like this, the disaster area needed a large number of doctors. As a doctor, she really wanted to do her part.

“You’re not allowed.” Huo Jinyao held her hand tightly. “You’re not allowed to be a volunteer. Call me selfish or careful, but you haven’t fully recovered yet. I’m worried about you being a volunteer.”

“But –”

“No buts,” Huo Jinyao insisted. “Qingsang, I understand your feelings and your determination to do good, but this isn’t like the mudslide that happened last time. This is an earthquake. An aftershock could happen at any time. I can’t bear the slightest possibility of losing you.”

Even if it was just a little, it wouldn’t do.

Su Qingsang felt his hot hand, and she understood his concerns. “But, Director Sun and the others are all helping out now, yet I have to return to Rong City alone. It really isn’t good. More importantly, I really want to contribute to the disaster area. Jinyao, just let me, okay? I promise that I’ll ensure my own safety and I’ll be very careful. I will not let myself be in danger. Can I?”

“No.”

“Jinyao?”

“Unless you promise me something.”

“What?”

“I’ll go too.”

“Huo Jinyao.” Has he gone mad? Su Qingsang didn’t know what to say. “You’re the President of Tianyu Group, how can you –”

“If you can, I can too.” Huo Jinyao said very seriously, “And you’re the wife of the President of Tianyu Group.”

Su Qingsang couldn’t help but laugh. She leaned over and kissed Huo Jinyao on the cheek.

“Jinyao, you’re so nice.”

Huo Jinyao took a deep look at her and thought of Zhang Yichen, who was next door.

“Actually, I was afraid that you wouldn’t think I’m good enough.”

“Why would I? In my heart, you’re the best.”

“Qingsang.”

“Yes?”

“If, I mean if, there’s a man who treats you better than I do. He could even, could… would you…”

Huo Jinyao suddenly stopped talking. He denied what he had just said.

He was jealous, insanely jealous.

He was jealous of Zhang Yichen, jealous that the person who was by Su Qingsang’s side at that time wasn’t him.

“What are you trying to say?”

Su Qingsang looked at him in confusion. Huo Jinyao hugged her and pressed his chin against her neck.

“I’m trying to say that if a man treats you better than I do, would you be with him?”

Su Qingsang blinked at him and finally raised her hand to place it on Huo Jinyao’s forehead.

“You don’t have a fever? Why are you talking nonsense?”

Huo Jinyao pulled her hand down and held it tightly. He looked at her and didn’t look like he was joking.

“I’m serious. If that man is very good, if that man loves you very much, if he could sacrifice his life for you, you…”

“Huo Jinyao. “Su Qingsang interrupted him. “We’re married. Have you forgotten?”

Huo Jinyao’s slightly dazed face made Su Qingsang burst into laughter. She held his hand. “We married a year ago. Speaking of which, two days ago was our wedding anniversary. Look, we’re already married.”

“I know, but…”

“There’s no buts. I won’t commit bigamy, and I won’t be with another man.”

Seeing that Huo Jinyao seemed to have something else to say, she raised her hand and placed it on his lips.

“No matter how good and outstanding that person is, no matter how good he is to me. Huo Jinyao, my husband is you.”

Huo Jinyao looked at her and suddenly smiled. He reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist, leaned over, and gently planted a kiss on her lips.

“Yes. Your husband is me.”

Huo Jinyao’s voice was deep and there were hidden emotions in it.

Su Qingsang’s reaction was to hug him and press her face against his chest.

..

Su Qingsang rested for another day. After confirming that there were no major problems with her body, Huo Jinyao made arrangements for them to follow the next batch of supplies back to C City this afternoon.

They were only staying in N City temporarily. There was nothing to pack.

Huo Jinyao, on the other hand, had something to do. He had arranged for Yang Wenchang to send relief supplies over.

This time, Tianyu Group’s performance in this area was very eye-catching. The higher-ups all thought that Huo Jinyao was trying to create publicity for the Group, but only Huo Jinyao knew that he really wanted to do something for these people.

The supplies were ready and flew to C City with the helicopter in the afternoon.

Huo Jinyao and Yang Wenchang went to work on this matter, while Su Qingsang packed up and prepared to leave.

When she came out of the ward, she happened to see that the door of the next ward was open.

She froze for a moment, and her red lips pursed into a straight line. Finally, she turned around and went to the next ward.

Zhang Yichen’s back was injured. His body was fine, but he had suffered such a serious internal injury and lost so much blood. He had survived it.

However, his injury was a little more serious, and he didn’t look too good.

He reached out for the cup by the bedside. He placed it a little far away and leaned his body forward a little.

Before he could touch the cup, a hand picked it up first and placed it on his hand.

When he turned around and saw Su Qingsang, he was stunned.

He naturally knew that Su Qingsang was in the next ward, but he had never thought of taking a look at her.

Well, it wasn’t that he hadn’t thought about it, but he couldn’t think about it. So he simply pretended that he didn’t know and treated it as if the patient next door was another patient.

He didn’t expect that he would see Su Qingsang.

“You –” Zhang Yichen said one word and held the cup tightly. “Are you okay?”

Su Qingsang nodded and looked at Zhang Yichen. Her voice was very soft. “Uncle, thank you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Zhang Yichen took a sip of the water. His voice and expression were very cold.

“Thank you, Uncle.” Su Qingsang’s voice was very sincere. “Thank you for saving my life.”

Zhang Yichen lowered his head and drank all the water in the cup. Then, he used the action of placing the cup to s.h.i.+ft his gaze away.

“I said, no need to thank me. I’m a soldier. That’s what I should do.”

He said this twice in two days. But each time, his mood was different.

Su Qingsang still wanted to say something, but she felt that the words ‘thank you’ were indeed too light.

“Uncle, are you hurt very badly? How’s your body now? Is it better?”

“I’m fine. I’m feeling very well. My mother was too nervous.”

Zhang Yichen still didn’t look at Su Qingsang. Su Qingsang could tell from his expression that he actually wasn’t feeling well.

She was a doctor, so naturally she knew that Zhang Yichen wasn’t telling the truth.

“It’s good that you’re fine.” Su Qingsang thought about it for a while and said, “Uncle, let me know when you come to Rong City next time. Jinyao and I will treat you to a meal. Consider it a thank you for saving my life.”

“No need. Even if you weren’t the one who had an accident today, I would have done the same. Besides, you’re Jin Yao’s wife. I’m Jinyao’s uncle, so naturally I wouldn’t let anything happen to you.”

Su Qingsang was at a loss for words.

Huo Yangxiu arrived at this time. She froze when she saw Su Qingsang.

“Great-aunt.”

“Yes, you’re here to visit Yichen?”

“Yes, I’m here to — thank Uncle.”

Before she could finish her sentence, Zhang Yichen interrupted her, “Mom, didn’t my dad say he was coming over? Qhere is he?”

“He went to direct the disaster relief efforts.” Huo Yangxiu knew how her husband was. “After he found out that you were fine, he went over. He said that only when there’s a big family can there be a small family. It’s not like you don’t know how your dad is.”

“Great-aunt, Uncle, you guys talk. I’m leaving now.”

Su Qingsang could tell that Zhang Yichen didn’t want her to stay here. After saying goodbye to Huo Yangxiu and Su Qingsang, she turned around and left.

Huo Yangxiu wanted to let her stay for a while. After all, they were relatives, and she liked Huo Jinyao very much.

However, Zhang Yichen asked her to pour water at this time. After Huo Yangxiu finished pouring the water, Su Qingsang had already left.

“You rascal, no matter what, she’s still Jinyao’s wife. Why do you have such a cold att.i.tude?”

Zhang Yichen took the water from her hand and didn’t answer Huo Yangxiu’s question.

However, the corner of his eyes kept falling on the door of the ward. With his sharp ears, he listened to the rhythmic footsteps that slowly walked away.

Until he could no longer hear them.

He put the cup back on the bedside table and didn’t respond to Huo Yangxiu’s next words.

..

Su Qingsang boarded the helicopter with Huo Jinyao.

After that, there were a few more aftershocks that could be clearly felt in C city. It was indeed a dangerous place.

However, Su Qingsang was very determined. When she returned to C City, she first went to see Sun Huiya and the others.

The doctors who came to C City this time were now individuals playing the roles of multiple people. There were no more departments.

When the injured came, they immediately started. The golden rescue time of seventy-two hours had pa.s.sed, but the injured were still being sent over.

The hospital tent was full of people. The disaster this time was very serious. No one had expected it to be like this.

“Why are you back?”

When she saw Su Qingsang, Sun Huiya’s voice changed. “Nonsense, aren’t you injured? Go home.”

“Director Sun, I’m fine. Just let me help.”

Su Qingsang was determined. Although Sun Huiya was helpless, doctors were indeed needed at this time.

She waved her hand but didn’t say anything else. Su Qingsang quickly threw herself into work.

Huo Jinyao also volunteered.

What surprised Su Qingsang wasn’t the fact that Huo Jinyao volunteered, but how he did it.

He wasn’t wearing a volunteer outfit and putting on an act. He was actually helping these people in his own way.

He was carrying a stretcher, helping to carry the bed, and delivering water to the villagers. She could constantly see Huo Jinyao’s busy figure when she was resting.

But even though he was very busy, he didn’t forget to take care of her.

He brought her food during meal times and ran over to tell her to drink more water while she was resting. They also had to take precautions.

Places where people pa.s.sed away were p.r.o.ne to epidemics. Huo Jinyao didn’t need to tell Su Qingsang about this.

However, she felt very different when he lectured her instead.

They stayed in the same tent at night. They couldn’t sleep very soundly. If a patient was sent over, they would have to get up at any time.

Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao had both experienced the same thing, so they didn’t find it difficult to endure.

The only thing that made it inconvenient was that it was inconvenient to take a shower here.

When Su Qingsang returned to the tent, she saw that Huo Jinyao’s clothes were covered in dust. It was’t just his clothes, even his hair was covered in dust.

At that moment, Huo Jinyao wasn’t as elegant as when he was the CEO in Rong City?

Su Qingsang’s heart ached. Huo Jinyao didn’t notice her gaze. He took out a bag from behind him.

“Are you tired? There’s food here. I asked Wenchang to bring another one. Here.”

Su Qingsang didn’t take the bag from him. She looked at Huo Jinyao and spoke very seriously.

“Huo Jinyao, you can go back to Rong City.”

“Qingsang?”

“Listen to me. “Su Qingsang had seen Huo Jinyao’s performance in the past two days.

He was really serious about being a volunteer. But she also felt sorry for him.

“Look, there are so many things to deal with at Tianyu Group, but you came to C city. You said before that you have a lot of things to deal with.”

Huo Jinyao didn’t deny that he was indeed very busy.

Especially now that Huo Yifan had left the company, he had to make decisions every day.

Yang Wenchang brought a laptop over for him. He volunteered during the day and would deal with work at night after Su Qingsang fell asleep. He took some time to rest.

It had only been two days, but there were already dark circles under his eyes.

“It’s okay. I can handle those things. Now, this is more important.”

“I know you can handle it. But –” she stepped forward and held Huo Jinyao’s hand. “My heart aches for you.”

She raised her hand and used her sleeve to wipe Huo Jinyao’s face. She actually knew that Huo Jinyao had a slight obsession with cleanliness.

But now, he was being kept busy in such an environment.

“Huo Jinyao, my heart aches for you. I want you to go back and continue being the almighty President.”

Huo Jinyao looked at her and held her hand.

“Honey, you feel sorry for me, but won’t I feel sorry for you?”

Su Qingsang was a doctor in the obstetrics and gynecology department, but what she had done in the past two days had nothing to do with the obstetrics and gynecology department.

“You’re here helping the disaster area, but you’re chasing me back. Haven’t you ever thought that there will be aftershocks from time to time? If I really leave here, won’t I be worried about you?”

“The situation is basically stable now. Even if there are aftershocks, I believe it won’t be too serious. Also –”

Su Qingsang tried to convince Huo Jinyao, but Huo Jinyao didn’t accept it.

“Honey, either you come back with me, or I’ll stay with you. In short, I won’t let you go alone. In such an uncertain environment, you’ll have to go through the same fear and worry as before.”

Su Qingsang was at a loss for words. Her throat felt like it was stifled.

She wanted to say something, but in the end, she could only reach out and hug Huo Jinyao.

“Huo Jinyao, did I tell you that I love you?”

“Yes, you’re saying it now.”

“Then did I tell you that I like you because you’re you? Even if there’s a man who’s better than you and treats me better than you, he still can’t make me like him?”

She was answering his question from the other day. Huo Jinyao smiled and wrapped his large hands around her waist.

“Besides,” Su Qingsang looked up at him. Her eyes, which were slightly bloodshot from exhaustion, were still as bright as the stars.

“In my heart, there won’t be a man who’s better than you and treats me better than you.”

Huo Jinyao smiled. He laughed so hard that his chest was trembling. Su Qingsang’s face was pressed against his chest, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly in a faint smile.

..

When Su Peizhen entered the room, not only was there the smell of alcohol, there was also the smell of cigarettes. The room was also very dark, and the lights weren’t turned on.

The entire room smelled very nauseating. She turned on the lights and pulled open the curtains.

The blinding light made Huo Yifan, who was lying on the bed, open his eyes.

When he saw that it was Su Peizhen, he turned over, pushed the bottle of wine in his hand, and went back to sleep.

Su Peizhen looked at him and felt deep resentment in her heart. She turned around and went to the bathroom to bring a basin of water.

She walked to the bed and splashed it onto Huo Yifan’s face.

Huo Yifan had no choice but to get up. He stared at Su Peizhen with wide eyes, as if he was looking at an enemy.

“Are you crazy? What are you doing?”

“What am I doing? I want to ask you now, what are you doing?”

“What I’m doing?” Huo Yifan sneered and wiped the water off his face. “What can I do now? Tell me, what can I do now?”

“I don’t know what you can do now. I only know that no matter what you do now, it’s better than being drunk here.”

“Better? How?”

Huo Yifan got up from the bed. His clothes were wet and he took them off.

He walked up to Su Peizhen and pinched her chin. “What? What else can you use me for? Tell me.”

“Huo Yifan.” Su Peizhen pushed his hand away. “Let me tell you, what else can I use you for now? Look at you. Forget about Huo Jinyao, even I can beat you up. Do you believe me?”

“Yes, why wouldn’t I believe you?” Huo Yifan grabbed Su Peizhen’s arm and pressed her against his body. “You don’t have to beat me up, because I’ll just lie on top of you. Not only will I lie on top of you, I’ll even move and make you…”

Huo Yifan’s face was slapped. He glared at Su Peizhen.

Not only Su Peizhen wasn’t afraid, she also slapped Huo Yifan on the other side of his face.

“Huo Yifan, are you awake now?”

“Su Peizhen.” His expression slightly ferocious, Huo Yifan gritted his teeth. “Let me tell you. No one has ever dared to hit me. You’re the first.”

“Really? Sorry, but I also want to tell you that I’ve never hit a man before. You’re also the first.”

“You…”

“What about me?” Su Peizhen sneered and glared at him, “I only know that Huo Jinyao isn’t in Rong City right now. I also know that he accompanied Su Qingsang to C City. I also know that an earthquake had happened in C City, and Huo Jinyao has not returned until now. And you question me about what I know?”

What does Huo Jinyao not being in Rong City Mean? She didn’t believe that he didn’t know.
