Chapter 528: Chapter 525 Warning
"If we had a trustworthy nanny at home to prepare dinner for us, then we could both come home to a hot meal. Wouldn’t that be nice?"
He Qianhui listened silently as Zhang Hao raved about their future life.
"Don’t you know that I like cooking? I’m happy to make food and drinks in the kitchen myself."
"Besides, a nanny won’t be able to make whatever you want on a whim."
"So from now on, you’ll take care of everything at home. I’m tired from my business trip these last few days."
"It’s a good opportunity to rest for a couple of days, isn’t it?"
Upon hearing He Qianhui say this, Zhang Hao immediately shook his head like a rattle-drum.
"Not at all, not at all. How could that be too much?"
Seeing that He Qianhui was finally not angry about that matter anymore, Zhang Hao quickly brought her some tea, "Here, have some water."
He Qianhui held the teacup and still looked at him with an unfriendly gaze.
"Don’t think that you can easily make up to me like this."
Zhang Hao also nodded incessantly, going along with her, "Not forgiven, not forgiven. Am I not terribly wicked right now?"
Finally, it was under Zhang Hao’s glib tongue that he managed to appease He Qianhui.
"You’ve just come home. Go take a nice bath first. I’ll give you a good massage tonight."
Upon hearing Zhang Hao’s words, He Qianhui started to wave her hands, "I’m not a patient. Why would you need to massage me?"
"I never thought of you as the Divine Doctor. It’s only those patients in the hospital who do."
"Don’t think I’m like them. Hurry up and get up."
Zhang Hao stood up with the aid of his crutch, and seeing his flustered look, He Qianhui felt a twinge of heartache.
But after all, his recovery was not bad; he even had the energy to joke around with her light-heartedly.
It proved that he was fine, "How about I take you to the hospital tomorrow to have your cast removed and check on your recovery?"
Actually, Zhang Hao had long been desiring to have the cast removed, but He Qianhui had always been saying they should wait until she returned to do it together.
Zhang Hao accordingly complied, "Alright, alright. Tomorrow we’ll go to the hospital and get this cursed cast off."
He Qianhui washed away the day’s fatigue with a bath. It was her first time dealing with a client on a business trip, and although she had mentally prepared for the possibility that he might be inexperienced and clumsy...
Overall, he turned out to be quite a gentleman. The reason he insisted on having He Qianhui in charge was mainly for appearances. Even a gentleman is interested in an attractive woman; it’s a common flaw among all men.
When he saw He Qianhui in person, he became convinced that she was indeed a very beautiful woman.
For this reason, he even personally took her to a cocktail party.
To thank her for accompanying him, he especially bought her a dress.
However, He Qianhui did not accept it not until the moment they confirmed the signing of the contract, did she finally let her hanging heart settle back down.
Even as she boarded the plane home, He Qianhui couldn’t help worrying whether this client might have any thoughts about her.
This worry wasn’t due to vanity, but because this client indeed was unlike those she had encountered before.
As to what exactly was different, she later on thought it over, it was because this client was a man, and he had been divorced for many years.
Such a wealthy gentleman had no shortage of women in the dating scene, yet in the course of their conversations...
She learned that although his ex-wife was never satisfied with the divorce, she settled for it because he was determined to divorce her. He even threatened to bring another woman home if she didn’t agree.
And his ex-wife was the kind of person who could not tolerate even a grain of sand in her eye; when it came to why the two got married, the man only said that his ex-wife had tricked him.
He too had made mistakes common to men, impregnating a woman before they were married.
Back then, he was naïve and innocent, believing the child his ex-wife was carrying was his own, so without much thought, he proposed the idea of marriage to his family.
It was to marry the woman he loved and bring her into his home.
He devoted much effort to the cause, even paying a bride price that was two to three times higher than what was customary elsewhere.
Proudly claiming that his wife was worth the money, he also didn’t want his wife to live in poverty with him.
It wasn’t until later, when the child fell ill and needed a blood transfusion, that he, as a father, naturally stepped up first.
It turned out their blood types didn’t match; he had type A blood, his wife had type B blood, but the child’s blood type was O!
No matter how the two of them combined, they couldn’t produce a child with type O blood.
When he confronted his wife with the blood test results, she finally admitted that the child wasn’t his.
It was her ex-boyfriend’s.
But when she got pregnant, she didn’t know the child was from her ex-boyfriend.
She was just taking her chances, what if it turned out to be his child, yet when the child was born,
She regretted it, as the child looked almost exactly like her ex-boyfriend, as if carved out of the same mold.
Perhaps she was still deceiving herself, even though so many people said the child did not resemble his father.
But since the child was still small and it was unclear, it was enough that the child resembled the mother.
It was only during that blood transfusion that he discovered the child he had called "Dad" for so many years wasn’t his own biological son.
If it had been a second marriage for both of them, even if the child wasn’t his own, he wouldn’t have felt so heartbroken by calling him "Dad."
Nevertheless, he understood that the child was innocent and therefore did not vent his anger on the child.
When he initiated the divorce, his wife still pleaded for another chance for them to have a child together.
But he had lost trust in his wife and was unwilling to give her that chance again.
So after the divorce, his wife would still occasionally call,
Interfering in his emotional life, but as far as he was concerned, she had no right to do so.
Even though he ignored her, the woman continued to disrupt his life.
As a result, even when someone was willing to get close and wanted to be with him, they were thwarted by that crazy woman’s interference.
Even during the two days he was with He Qianhui, that woman did not give up on causing trouble.
She even threatened that if he continued to be with that woman, she would splash a bottle of sulfuric acid on her face.
To disfigure her, believing that once she became a "monster," no one would like her!
The man felt that such an ex-wife had lost her humanity.
If he let her continue this way, something bad was bound to happen eventually.
So he quickly signed a contract with He Qianhui to let her go back first, knowing that if he really wanted to, they would meet again in the future.
After learning about this, Zhang Hao suddenly became serious.
"I’ve been celibate for several days at home, although I’ve also kept some things from you."
"But those have nothing to do with my personal feelings, and now there’s someone coveting my fiancée, it seems I need to give them a warning."
