Huo Jinfeng nervously lay on the bed inside the hospital ward. He kept thinking about how he should explain to his niece when she got here.
When he heard the sound of the door opening, he hurriedly closed his eyes.
On the way to the hospital, Shangguan Tong suppressed her sadness. After entering the hospital ward, she could no longer restrain herself.
The moment she got to the hospital bed, she fell and sat on the ground limply. Pain from her chest swiftly surged through every inch of her body.
Shangguan Tong lay prone on the bed with her hands trembling. For a long time, she did not dare to hold the man's hands.
She was afraid that she would not be able to handle it after taking his pulse.
Huo Jinfeng had his eyes closed, so he could only hear some soft sounds. After some time, he was unable to hear anything else, so he finally opened his eyes. "Yaoyao, I didn't mean to…"
A woman was beside the bed. The moment he saw her face, his voice stopped abruptly.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHuo Jinfeng's face was filled with shock. Something in his head exploded. He could not believe his eyes. "Tong?"
Shangguan Tong's hands had stopped in midair. She looked into Huo Jinfeng's eyes and looked scared. "Aren't you… didn't they say you were…"
Shangguan Tong stopped mid-sentence. She finally noticed he did not even use the hospital equipment at all and the room was very quiet. It did not seem like he was in grave condition.
In that case, Yu must have fooled her into coming here, right?
Shangguan Tong promptly saw through the ruse. As she went into deep thought, Huo Jinfeng had already pulled off the blanket. He got off the bed, disregarded the pain from his injury, and reached his hands out to embrace her tightly.
"Tong, I missed you so much."
Huo Jinfeng spoke gently and sounded careful.
Huo Jinfeng did not feel angry about her leaving without telling him. He also was not angry that she had faked her own death. The only thing he felt was the sheer joy of finding her again.
Shangguan Tong suddenly felt a strong pang in her heart.
This idiot.
She slowly embraced him back.
She was so lucky to know him.
The two of them hugged each other quietly. They failed to notice the partially open hospital ward door closing.
Inside the room, Huo Changfeng looked uncharacteristically emotional and his eyes were a little red.
Huo Yao raised her brow and said teasingly, "Uncle Changfeng, my eldest uncle has found his woman. When is it going to be your turn then?"
These unexpected words left Huo Changfeng hurt and speechless.
This was a really bad joke.
How would he know, right?
What else could he do?
Huo Yao smiled. She lowered her eyes to check the time and said, "Uncle Changfeng, you should go back early to rest. We'll be making a move first."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWhen Huo Changfeng heard the word 'we', he could sense something hammering his heart viciously. He raised his head and glanced at Min Yu coolly.
Very well. He had one more reason to kill someone.

Before long, Huo Yao and Min Yu left the hospital.
It was already 11:00 pm, so it was dark outside. Only the soft street lights were on.
Huo Yao slowly walked beside Min Yu as she thought about the things that happened at Mirage Base today. No matter where she went, people knew. She subconsciously touched the man's palm, holding his hand.
When they got to the car, Min Yu could no longer stand her touching his palm. He let go of her hand and held Huo Yao by the waist in a split second. He turned around and pinned her against the car door.
Huo Yao promptly snapped out of her thoughts and raised her head. Before she could speak, her lips were sealed by a kiss.
"…"
By the time she got back to the Huo family estate, it was already 12:30 am.
She nearly could not go home at all.
When Huo Yao got home, she saw Huo Yulin in the living room. She raised her hands to straighten her clothes.
