To My Dear Mr. Huo

“I’m fine.” In actuality, Zuo Hongchen’s back was still in pain but he didn’t want to worry Su Qingsang. “Small injury. Don’t worry about it.”

“As long as you’re okay.”

Huo Jinyao watched from behind them as they expressed their concerns for one another.

He felt a bit jealous.

Huo Jinyao extended his arm and pulled Su Qingsang back towards him.

He took a small step forward, blocked off most of Su Qingsang’s body, and looked at Zuo Hongchen.

“I heard that you saved my Qingsang? Thank you so much. How about we go for lunch since it’s almost time? I hope you’ll be kind enough to join us.”

Su Qingsang looked at Zuo Hongchen. He had helped her and it was only right for her to give him a meal.

Zuo Hongchen looked at the hand that Huo Jinyao had placed on Su Qingsang’s shoulders. It felt so uncomfortable. He wouldn’t be able to eat if he went out to lunch with them.

“It’s okay. I have another operation this afternoon.”

“That’s too bad.” As Huo Jinyao spoke, he took a glance at Su Qingsang. “Since you can’t make it, we’ll reschedule for another day. Qingsang is tired too, so I guess we’ll head home and get some rest.”

“Okay.” Su Qingsang nodded. “I still need to go back to the department and hand over my work.”

“I’ll come with you.” Huo Jinyao moved his hand and placed it around her waist instead. “Let’s go. We’ll walk over there now.”

“Alright, we’ll leave now.”

“Goodbye,” Zuo Hongchen called.

“Goodbye.” It was Huo Jinyao who spoke. Before Su Qingsang could raise her hand and wave goodbye, he had already dragged her to the direction of the elevator.

Zuo Hongchen watched them as they left, with an obvious sense of loss in his eyes.

“Why are you walking so fast?” Su Qingsang’s sensible demeanor was only maintained until she entered the elevator. “I hadn’t finished talking to him yet.”

Huo Jinyao turned to look at her and said, “What was there to talk about? You stay in a hospital together every day, and you don’t think you have enough time to talk?”

“What did you say?” Su Qingsang felt a sense of defeat. “His surgery room is on the seventh floor. Our obstetrics department is on the fourth floor. How can we talk every day?”

When they got busy it was hard for them to even see each other.

“So now you’re disappointed?” Huo Jinyao approached her. His face was almost affixed to Su Qingsang’s.

Su Qingsang took a step back. “Huo Jinyao.”

“Wife.” Huo Jinyao went to hug her and said, “If you want to talk to more people, I’m here. I’m your husband.”

“That’s enough.” Su Qingsang went to grab his hand and said, “There are monitors in here.”

“Why does that matter?” Huo Jinyao didn’t care at all. “Just let the whole hospital know that you married so those male doctors keep away from you.”

He made a heavy emphasis on “male doctor” and Su Qingsang wanted to laugh.

Thank God that all the gynecologists and obstetricians in the hospital were female doctors. If she was in another department, would Huo Jinyao even let her work?

Turning away from him, Su Qingsang went back to the department and explained the work before leaving.

She followed Huo Jinyao down the stairs. There were still some people still there other than the Zhang Mei family.

The people were still making a scene and the banners still hadn’t been removed.

When Su Qingsang saw this, her heart sank. Huo Jinyao could see her mood shifting. His hands squeezed tightly.

“Wife, don’t worry about it too much. I told you, this had nothing to do with you.”
