Chapter 436: 438 Isn’t it about having a baby? (3)_1
"Qin Huan?"
Huo Jinnan looked down at Che Huan, rarely seeing such an honest and cute side of her, and watched with interest, though his face remained expressionless.
Indeed!
Having grown up in such an environment, neglected by her biological mother, leaving her hometown at a young age to live with her uncle, sharing a small room with her cousin, and later getting married to Gu Jizhou by mistake, ending up in Huo Jinyun’s hands...
He paused, thinking of the video from the ICU ward at the Army Hospital, where she held the microphone, listing the hardships she’d endured the past five years to Gu Jizhou—
His eyes deepened, and he raised his hand, gently touching her cheek; for a girl of her young age to go through such experiences and not end up with a psychological disorder was already quite remarkable.
Che Huan thought he was taking her seriously, "I...I just..."
Huo Jinnan pressed his fingertip against her lips.
Che Huan’s remaining words were blocked, and she could only look up at Huo Jinnan with wide eyes.
"Wait here for me."
Huo Jinnan said softly, then entered the ward.
After about ten minutes, he came out, glanced at Che Huan, and walked toward the elevator.
Che Huan followed, walking behind him, feeling somewhat uneasy. This was supposed to be their honeymoon, right? And they were already having a fight on the second day.
Inside the elevator, she looked at Huo Jinnan, "Are you angry?"
"Not angry."
Huo Jinnan pressed the button for the first floor.
Saying he’s not angry! Che Huan watched Huo Jinnan, seeing him truly angry for the first time, and felt a little helpless.
They quickly arrived at the first floor, and with a "ding," the elevator door opened.
Huo Jinnan made a phone call, "Where’s Third Uncle? Wait a moment."
Qin Mochuan and Fang Tong had just walked out of the underground parking lot and had gone only a short distance when they replied, "We’re nearby."
"Then let’s have a simple meal together, my treat, Third Uncle," Huo Jinnan said indifferently.
Qin Mochuan glanced at the time. It was past lunchtime and still an hour or two before dinner. What kind of meal was this?
He thought things were settling down. Could it be—?
For a moment, he wasn’t quite sure, "Anan."
"I’ve been waiting outside the emergency room the whole time and haven’t had the chance to eat lunch. I just remembered there’s something I’d like to discuss with Third Uncle. If it’s not convenient for you, we can do it another day."
"No, it’s convenient," Qin Mochuan insisted.
Hearing Qin Mochuan’s voice, Huo Jinnan grunted a response, ended the call, and looked at Che Huan.
Che Huan frowned. What was he planning to do?
He wouldn’t be confirming the terms of the agreement with Qin Mochuan and Fang Tong, would he?
With that thought, she braced herself and spoke up, "That agreement..."
"We’ll talk about it when we get there."
Huo Jinnan wrapped an arm around her waist and held her tight.
She didn’t want to lose face in front of Fang Tong, especially not in front of a woman who was eyeing her husband!
With this in mind, she had barely called out "Huo Jinnan" when they walked out of the hospital and saw Qin Mochuan and Fang Tong getting out of their car and heading towards them.
She was about to speak, but then stopped abruptly!
Huo Jinnan glared at Che Huan, then looked away and directed his gaze at Qin Mochuan, "I heard Third Uncle likes Sichuan cuisine; let’s go to Chuanxiang Pavilion."
Sichuan cuisine?
He didn’t eat spicy food at all!
Qin Mochuan stared at Huo Jinnan, not understanding what he was getting at.
Fang Tong caught a glimpse of Qin Mochuan, knowing her stepfather didn’t eat spicy food, and looked at Che Huan, "Huanhuan, do you eat spicy food?"
Why would Fang Tong suddenly ask if she eats spicy food?
Realizing something, Che Huan looked at Fang Tong.
Aware of her slip of the tongue, Fang Tong quickly spoke up, "Huanhuan, I get pimples whenever I eat spicy food. Your skin is so nice; do you never eat spicy food?"
