Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Murong Qiao slept very soundly. When she opened her eyes, she realized that it was already afternoon.
She slept until she woke up naturally. When she slowly opened her eyes and saw the unfamiliar scene in front of her, she suddenly sat up on the camp bed.
What was she doing here?
Murong Qiao’s mind went blank for a moment before the memories in her mind gradually came back. She recalled her conversation with her second brother and the faint pain in her neck.
“Huo Yichen…” She remembered.
Murong Qiao hurriedly got up. The coat she was wearing slipped off and was quickly grabbed by her.
She smelled disinfectant and glanced at the coat in her hand. She didn’t say anything and went to look for Huo Yichen’s ward.
Fortunately, what she was worried about didn’t happen. There was an old man sitting in front of Huo Yichen’s bed, seemingly taking care of him.
Murong Qiao pushed open the door and saw an old man sitting upright by the bed in the cold ward. Huo Yichen didn’t seem to be awake yet.
“Hello, who is this?” She was the first to greet him.
The old man looked in the direction of the voice and saw a beautiful girl standing in front of him. She was indescribably beautiful. Most importantly, she looked at Young Master Huo with gentle and concerned eyes.
His eyes flashed. “I’m Young Master Huo’s butler.”
The news of his car accident had only reached the Huo Residence in the morning and when the butler heard the news, he immediately rushed over.
After Murong Qiao learned of the other party’s identity, she felt a little relieved.
“I’m Murong Qiao,” she said.
Since she didn’t know the butler’s identity, Murong Qiao didn’t say much. She was afraid of causing trouble for Huo Yichen.
However, when the butler heard this name, his eyes lit up even more.
The way he looked at Murong Qiao was obviously different from before. “You’re Young Miss Murong?”
From his tone, it sounded like he knew her.
Before Murong Qiao could ask, the butler continued.
“Young Master Huo mentioned you to me at home.” The butler smiled. “He doesn’t talk much, but he mentions you whenever he does.”
Murong Qiao blushed. She wasn’t familiar with the butler yet, so she was even more embarrassed.
The butler was very old. There were three layers of wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and his sideburns were gray. He had a kind face, and when he smiled, it made people lower their guards.
Fortunately, the butler knew his limits and only praised her a little before changing the topic, hence Murong Qiao didn’t feel that he was overdoing it.
“By the way, do you know what caused the car accident?” Murong Qiao remembered the main point.
She came in a hurry last night and was knocked unconscious by Murong Zheng, so she could not understand the situation yet.
At the mention of this, the butler frowned and his tone became much heavier.
He looked at Huo Yichen. “We’re still investigating this matter. The cause of the accident was that the brakes of the truck failed and it collided with Young Master’s car, but…”
He didn’t finish his sentence, but Murong Qiao and the butler knew the meaning behind it.
On the surface, it looked like an accident, but whether or not it was planned would probably require further investigation.
All of this would have to wait until Huo Yichen woke up.
“Thank you for taking care of Young Master.” The butler thanked Murong Qiao.
If Murong Qiao hadn’t been busy taking care of him last night, Huo Yichen’s condition might have gotten worse.
Murong Qiao waved her hand. “It’s fine, it’s fine.”
She didn’t think much of it. Besides, after talking to the butler, Murong Qiao felt that he really valued Huo Yichen, the kind that didn’t involve any benefits.
Murong Qiao didn’t ask why the butler was the one who came instead of his father.She just said goodbye to the butler and left the ward.
She went to Murong Zheng’s office and knocked on the door. She saw Murong Zheng sitting in front of the computer.
“You’re awake?” Murong Zheng asked.
He held the mouse in his hand and was clicking on it while his eyes stayed glued to the computer.
Murong Qiao originally wanted to come over and question him. He wanted to ask why Murong Zheng had knocked her out.
However, when she heard Murong Zheng’s cold tone, she suddenly swallowed her words. The aura that was brewing around her also withered.
Murong Qiao opened her mouth. “Why did you knock me out?”
She did ask, but her aura was far from what she had imagined. Her tone was much softer.
Murong Zheng stopped what he was doing and looked at her. “You needed to rest.”
He repeated what he had said earlier, which was exactly what Murong Zheng was thinking.
He was a doctor, so he naturally knew the importance of rest to a person, not to mention that this person was his Little Sister.
“But how can I sleep in that situation?” Murong Qiao frowned at him.
She still felt a little uncomfortable. Murong Qiao felt uneasy that she couldn’t stay by Huo Yichen’s side all the time.
Murong Zheng felt his eyebrows twitch. Hearing the disapproval in Murong Qiao’s words, he felt a little frustrated. Even his originally cold eyes frowned.
However, Murong Qiao didn’t realize as she was only worried about Huo Yichen. “At that time, I could still hold on. At least, let me see him wake up…”
Her words made Murong Zheng even more frustrated.
She didn’t seem to care about her health at all. Instead, she cared so much about Huo Yichen.
When he heard his Little Sister talking about Huo Yichen and the topic revolving around him, Murong Zheng became a little impatient.
“Don’t tell me you want me to tell Big Brother that you’re in a relationship?” Murong Zheng asked her coldly.
This sentence hit Murong Qiao’s Achilles’ heel. She wanted to say something, but she instantly shut her mouth and didn’t say anything else.
What a joke. If Big Brother found out that not only was she disobedient, but she also secretly fell in love with Huo Yichen, Big Brother would definitely go crazy.
Murong Qiao’s chink in one’s armor was caught by her second brother, Murong Zheng. This time, she couldn’t think of questioning anyone anymore and just sat at the side obediently.
She lowered her eyes subconsciously, not wanting to meet Murong Zheng’s eyes. However, when she thought of what Murong Zheng had said just now, she felt a sense of danger shrouding her heart like dark clouds.
Hence, Murong Qiao said, “Murong Zheng—can we not tell Big Brother about our relationship?”
She deliberately lowered her voice and sat on the chair beside Murong Zheng, lowering her posture.
“If he finds out, 1’11 definitely…” Murong Qiao pretended to be a corpse.
Although she didn’t know the consequences of Big Brother’s anger, Murong Qiao felt that it was best if she didn’t know.
She softened her tone and carefully tugged at Murong Zheng’s sleeve. Then, she remembered that he was a clean freak and quickly retracted her hand. However, Murong Zheng saw her pitiful and afraid expression.
Seeing her like this, Murong Zheng raised his eyebrows and threw out another question.
“When did it start?”
Murong Zheng had been thinking about this question during the surgery last night. Today, he was looking for an answer from the person involved.
After all, they had their suspicions before. Moreover, Murong Qiao was the first to arrive when Huo Yichen was injured. All signs indicated that the two of them were very close.
Murong Qiao pursed her lips and told him everything about her and Huo Yichen.
To be honest, being stared at by Murong Zheng made her feel like she had to confess. At the same time, it was also a little thrilling.
“It started before the winter break?” Murong Zheng almost laughed out of anger.
When he mentioned winter break, Murong Zheng deliberately emphasized.
This was much earlier than he had expected.
Murong Qiao lowered her head guiltily, not daring to look at Murong Zheng. “Yes.”
She spoke so softly that she wished she could turn into an ostrich and dig a hole to bury her head in..
