Chapter 68 He took her to the bedroom
Wangjie followed closely behind, and when she saw the suddenly opened room door, there was no one inside. Suddenly, she covered her mouth and let out a gasp of surprise.Ho Sijue's face also changed!Al...: []
"What's wrong"
Huo Sijue scanned her with a gloomy face, his gaze lingering on her damp hair and the disheveled state of her clothes.
She was still wearing the same clothes she had on when she went to his company this afternoon. There was nothing special about them, but at least they were clean and fresh back then. What happened now
What are you going to do about it if you've been robbed You look like a ghost!
And what about her face
Huo Sijue stared at her with a dark gaze. This face was actually quite good-looking, although it wasn't as beautiful and charming as Gu Xia's, but the features were also delicate, belonging to the type that gets better with time. Especially those glistening apricot eyes, crystal clear and bright like gemstones, very eye-catching.
What's going on now It's swollen like a water bubble
"It's nothing, it was just the wind when I came over."
Wen Xuxu gave a faint explanation, without any emotional fluctuations.
Of course she wouldn't think this man was asking this question out of concern for her. It was ridiculous, wasn't it He cared! Perhaps more than that, he was worried she might be upset, emotionally unstable, and affect his ability to give her acupuncture.
Wen Xuxu brushed a strand of messy hair from her forehead and said impatiently, “Have you decided Where do you want me to give you acupuncture”
Ho Sijue: "..."
Although he was a little annoyed with the woman's cluelessness, in the end, he didn't say anything more. He got up and walked out of the study, going next door.
When Wen Xuxu saw him, she followed behind him.
Two minutes later, in a typical black, white and gray-toned bedroom, Wen Xixi saw the man bring her in and then take the remote control to turn on the heating.
Wen Xuxu was stunned!
Is this his bedroom
She immediately felt a pang of unease, and even thinking about the fact that another woman had lived here before intensified her revulsion.
But what struck her as strange was that when the man went to get a blanket from the wardrobe, Wen Xixi saw that his opened cabinet door held nothing but men's shirts and suits. There didn't seem to be any fabric belonging to a woman at all.
What's going on
She froze, not having time to take another closer look before a white towel was also thrown at her.
“I don’t have any women’s clothes here, just use this to wipe your head.” He paused, as if realizing that his words were a bit too caring, so a flash of annoyance crossed his brow before he added, “Don’t get sick and infect the children!”
Wen Xuxi: "…"
Holding the towel, he stood there for a while before wrapping it around his head and slowly wiping himself off.
In seasons like this, after getting rained on, it's really easy to get sick, especially for someone like Wen Xixi who isn't very healthy. Back then, although she survived, her three children were born prematurely. Even if she was made of iron, her body couldn't take it and had suffered a lot of damage long ago.
So, she didn't really delay it either.
After wiping her hair for a while, as the temperature in the room rose with the air conditioning, Wen Xuxu finally felt more comfortable. Then she saw that this man had already lain down on the sofa, and she also came over with the needle bag.
Did you sleep well today
"No."
Where's the medicine
"After drinking..."
A few back-and-forth sentences, it's just the doctor and patient talking to each other.
Wen Xuxu finished asking her own questions and handed over a note: "Extend your hand, let me take your pulse first."
Ho Sijue: ...
Lying there, he tilted his head and gazed at the slender wrist of the woman reaching out to him. Her fingertips still bore a hint of delicate pink. After a long moment, he withdrew his arm.
This is a very strange feeling.
Because in his, Huo Sijue's, impression, this woman was still the same as when she married him. Back then, she was only 19 years old. When she saw him, she had a youthful face full of panic and helplessness. She was meek and timid, not even daring to look up at him.
When did she become so candid
She was composed, her two fingers, carrying a slight chill, extended towards him. At that moment, Huo Sijue couldn't see even a hint of her previous timidity.
"When did you learn to do this"
"What"
When Wen Xixi, who was feeling the patient's pulse, heard this, her awareness drew back from under her fingertips and she glanced at him.
What did you say about this
“Yes, I remember you weren't studying medicine before. How did you suddenly get into this”
Ho Sijue's gaze was faint as he looked at his hand that had just been taken for a pulse. There was still a hint of coolness there, like a gust of wind squeezed through the cracks in a glass window. It wasn't so intense, but the touch was very noticeable.
"Mr. Huo, you really are forgetful! You forgot that my grandfather's family is a renowned Chinese medicine dynasty My mother learned Chinese medicine from my grandfather since she was young and continued his legacy after growing up. If she hadn't married my father, she would have been the heir to the Du family."
Wen Xuxu, while drawing out a long and thin needle from her sewing kit, said with a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth.
Huo Sijue choked.
Indeed, he forgot all about that. His uncle's family runs a Chinese medicine shop, doesn't ito, I'll go upstairs to change my clothes first and come down later to get them."Then the man walked upstairs with his business notebook in hand. He stood tall and straight, just his back view already...
