he walked into the elevator, looking like she was going back to the banquet hall on the twelfth floor.Ho Mingzheng suddenly pulled her out, his usually cold face showing a hint of anger, "Didn't you c...Why don't you give it a try, Fu Hanlin

Fu Yan pursed her lips. This was something she had never considered before.

Besides, even if Fu Hanlin wasn't really the way people rumored him to be, liking men, what right did she have to give it a try with him

Cao Fang paid the money and as he walked by with his packed lunch box, Ji Lin said leisurely, "Fu Hanlin will definitely pamper and love you."

Cao Fang's footsteps faltered.

Ji Lin said again, "Grandpa Fu likes you so much, why don't you just marry into the Fu family That way you wouldn't have to endure any hardship in that house. Anyway, no one in the Huo family truly considers you as family."

Fu Yan gently touched her upper jaw with the tip of her tongue. In reality, her tongue still ached a bit, but she was just numb from it.

But she didn't expect that Ji Lin's words would instantly transport her back to the orphanage, facing Huo Mingzheng.

A searing pain shot through her limbs, traveling up to every inch of her being. She clenched her fingers tightly.

She knew full well that Ji Lin was speaking deliberately for Cao Fang's ears. She just didn't think it was necessary. Even if Cao Fang went back and told Huo Mingzheng, it wouldn't have any effect on Huo Mingzheng whatsoever.

Besides making his possessive tendencies fluctuate, the rest is just a matter of indifference.

Cao Fang went out after opening the door.

"I'm not kidding," Ji Lin wasn't entirely speaking to Cao Fang. He said seriously, "Fu Hanlin is still single right now, and you know his character. I won't say much more about that."

Fu Yan smiled helplessly, "Why should I try just because he wants me to Do you think I'm an emperor choosing a bride"

Ji Lin was amused by her, "Why don't you take the initiative Fu Hanlin has been single for thirty-one years, he's very easy to manipulate."

"Do you believe that yourself" After all, Fu Yan didn't believe it. Fu Hanlin being single for thirty-one years she believed, but as for being easily manipulated...

A man with his status and experience, which woman could easily control him.

......

Li Qin leaned against the headboard, her face as pale as wax.

The nurse inserted an IV needle into the back of her hand. The moment the needle pierced her skin, she didn't flinch. Her whole being seemed lifeless, as if her soul had been extinguished, staring blankly out the window.

The ward door swung open from the outside.

The moment she saw Huo Mingzheng, her eyes seemed to be filled with a ray of light, and she immediately broke into a smile.

"A-zheng."

Qin Heng followed Huo Mingzheng.

He was wearing a white coat, his buttons fastened very neatly, which was different from his usual appearance.

"Thank you, Qin Heng," Li Qin said softly.

Although Qin Heng was unhappy with Li Qin's sudden departure back then, he still said gently: "There's nothing to worry about, we're all old friends."

He held in his hand the medical records of Li Qin's illness while she was overseas, flipping through them with his head bowed. "How did you suddenly faint today Is there anything else that feels uncomfortable"

Li Qin's hand under the blanket suddenly clenched, she shook her head, "Maybe I didn't sleep well last night."

But...

She paused, her eyes complexly gazing at Huo Mingzheng, "There was a time when my legs seemed to be unable to move."

At that moment, as she was about to leave, Ji Lin pulled her back. She instinctively struggled, and in normal circumstances, with that amount of force, she wouldn't have fallen. But at that time, her legs were uncontrollable, causing her center of gravity to shift.

Qin Heng raised an eyebrow, his expression changing in an instant.

He lowered his head and continued to flip through the medical records, hmmmed softly, didn't say much, "Get checked in the afternoon."t here to see you."He looked at Fu Yan, closing in step by step, "Don't you dare answer my question, or even look me in the eyes"Suddenly, a dozen or so bodyguards emerged from the Fu mansion and inte...
