Chapter 61 Like Relief, Mixed with Gratitude
After returning to Liuhe Villa, Huo Qiao watched Fang Yi and the others put the tortoise they brought back into the lake before following Xie Yuzhou into the living room.

Aunt Tian had already prepared dinner and washed her hands. The two of them sat down in the dining room and had their meal quietly.

The phone placed on the table vibrated twice, and the screen lit up.

Xie Yuzhou glanced casually. It was Qiao Yao and the others who were chatting in the group again.

Not paying attention to what Qiao Yao and the others were talking about in the group, Xie Yuzhou stretched out his chopsticks and picked up a piece of chicken for Huo Qiao.

Huo Qiao chewed the soft chicken in his mouth, his voice was a bit vague: "After eating, let's go to the hospital."

She wanted to ask Mr. Zhang about Xie Yuzhou's recent physical condition.

Xie Yuzhou responded lightly: "Yes."

After dinner, Huo Qiao and Xie Yuzhou walked to the hospital, which was considered a walk after dinner to digest.

Considering Xie Yuzhou's poor health, Huo Qiao slowed down his pace.

After walking for a few minutes, I had to pull Xie Yuzhou to sit on a bench by the side of the road to rest for a while.

The warm yellow light fell on the girl's body, as if covering her with a thin layer of sunset glow.

The hospital is still brightly lit at night.

Mr. Zhang is still busy. It is said that the illness of the third young lady of the Qin family has progressed.

In the past few days, Mr. Zhang has been focusing on observing her condition.

Huo Qiao was a little curious: "Is there any progress? Has her condition improved?"

Speaking of Mrs. Qin, Huo Qiao couldn't help but think of the black mist she saw in the other party's eyes before.

The nurse who came to report replied respectfully: "Yes."

But only the madness has eased.

Now Mrs. Qin Sanshao no longer yelled like crazy like before, but was frighteningly quiet, sitting by the window every day in a daze, without speaking.

Huo Qiao was still a little concerned about whether the black mist was her illusion or real existence, so he asked tentatively: "Can I go and see her?"

The nurse didn't respond, but only glanced cautiously at the man beside her.

Xie Yuzhou sat lazily on the chair, and his captivating eyes fell on the girl's delicate face: "Didn't Mrs. Xie come to accompany me?"

Huo Qiao also realized that Xie Yuzhou was the one who could call the shots, and hurriedly said, "I'll take a look and be back soon."

Xie Yuzhou supported his forehead with one hand, and spoke slowly and lightly: "Then Mrs. Xie should give me some compensation?"

Huo Qiao: "?"

compensate?

After a pause, she leaned slightly and kissed the man on the face.

"Is this compensation okay?"

Xie Yuzhou had an expression of reluctance, and his voice was tired and lazy: "It's enough."

Huo Qiao: "..."

I advise you not to push yourself too far.

Xie Yuzhou tilted his head slightly, motioned to the bodyguard and said, "Protect your wife."

It means agreeing.

Huo Qiao took two bodyguards and came to Mrs. Qin Sanshao's ward under the leadership of the nurse.

Different from other wards, the sign on the door said the words "Special Illness Room".

There are a few bodyguards guarding the door of the ward, like protection, but more like imprisonment.

Seeing someone approaching, the leading bodyguard recognized Huo Qiao as the girl who helped stop the third young lady last time, but said with a cold expression: "Non-doctors and nurses are not allowed to enter."

The nurse leading the way reminded in a low voice: "This is Mrs. Xie Wuye's wife."

Hearing this, the bodyguard showed a hint of surprise on his face.

When did Master Xie have a wife?
But soon he realized that the top floor was the exclusive area of ​​the fifth master of the Xie family, and the presence of a girl there already showed her extraordinary status.

If he remembered correctly, the bodyguard who ran over to protect the girl vaguely called his wife.

After thinking about this, the head of the bodyguard lowered his attitude a bit, and was no longer as aggressive as before: "Mrs. Xie, the third young lady's mood is still a little unstable, and I'm afraid it will hurt you."

Huo Qiao pretended not to hear the rejection in the other party's words, and smiled slightly: "It's okay, the people I brought will protect me."

The head of the bodyguard frowned slightly, and after thinking about it, he let Huo Qiao in.

But he thought about reporting this to the Patriarch.

Pushing open the door of the ward, Mr. Zhang and the others were standing beside the bed discussing something in a low voice, and turned their heads when they heard the door opening.

Seeing that it was Huo Qiao, Mr. Zhang looked a little surprised: "Why are you here?"

Huo Qiao said: "Isn't it obvious? Of course I came to visit the patient."

Her eyes fell on the thin woman sitting in front of the window.

Not as disheveled and unkempt as before, the woman's hair is clean and smooth, and her beautiful and clean side face is quiet and gentle.

Probably hearing her voice, the woman turned her head and looked over.

One eye was intact, but the other eye was covered with blue and black streaks.

No black mist.

Huo Qiao was slightly surprised, could it be that she really got it wrong last time?

Seeing the girl staring at her blankly, the woman thought that her eyes had frightened the other party, and subconsciously raised her hand to cover her eyes.

"Hello." The woman said suddenly, "Do we know each other?"

Hearing this sentence, everyone was stunned.

Because this was the first sentence the woman spoke after her mental state gradually stabilized.

Huo Qiao nodded slightly: "We met once before."

The woman nodded, said no more, turned her head and continued to look out of the window, as quiet and peaceful as a statue.

After the examination, Mr. Zhang came out of the ward with a group of doctors. Huo Qiao followed them, and heard Mr. Zhang say to the head of the bodyguard guarding the woman: "The patient's left eye is completely necrotic. If you want to To save my life, I can only dig out this eye..."

Until now, Mr. Zhang has not found out the cause of the patient's eye necrosis, but he is sure that the patient's eye disease is likely to endanger her life.

Now it is only the ophthalmic nerve of the left eye that is necrotic, but once it penetrates into the cranial nerve, it may cause brain death.

Gouging out the left eye is the best treatment plan that Mr. Zhang can give so far.

No family members of the Qin family were present, so Mr. Zhang could only tell the bodyguard who guarded the patient.

Before the door of the ward closed, Huo Qiao turned his head as if feeling something.

The woman looked at her with an incomprehensible look, met her gaze, and smiled faintly.

Until he returned to the top floor, Huo Qiao was still wondering what the woman's last smile meant.

It doesn't look like there's anything malicious.

More like relief, mixed with a hint of gratitude.

"It's time to get back to your senses, Mrs. Xie." The man's deep voice suddenly sounded.

Huo Qiao raised his head and found that he had returned to the ward where Xie Yuzhou lived.

Xie Yuzhou sat leisurely on the single sofa, holding the mobile phone in his bony hand, and looked at her with delicate peach blossom eyes: "What are you thinking?"

Huo Qiao walked over, sat down opposite the man, thought for a few seconds, and told him what happened in the ward downstairs and his guess.

Xie Yuzhou said in a leisurely tone, "Mrs. Xie cares so much about a stranger, I would be jealous."

Huo Qiao: "..."

Is your jealousy a little unreasonable?

Huo Qiao said, "She's a woman."

It's fine to be jealous of other men, but even jealous of women, aren't you being too unreasonable?

Xie Yuzhou fiddled with the mobile phone in his hand casually: "If the other party is not a woman, can I be jealous?"

Huo Qiao wanted to refute, but he didn't know how to refute.

He opened his mouth, but in the end he could only choke out one: "Yes."

Don't be jealous of men, can't you be jealous of women?

Xie Yuzhou relaxed and leaned back, and said unhurriedly: "Then I'm jealous."

Huo Qiao: "?"

No.

What kind of vinegar are you eating?
Xie Yuzhou's eyes slowly fell on the phone.

Huo Qiao doesn't know why, why are you looking at your phone?

Isn't the man jealous because she pays too much attention to Mrs. Qin Sanshao?
Is it related to the mobile phone?

Huo Qiao unlocked the lock screen of the phone, paused his fingers, and clicked into WeChat.

The one with the most news on the list was the Xie family group that Qiao Yao had pulled her in before.

Huo Qiao had an inexplicable intuition that Xie Yuzhou's jealousy must have something to do with this group.
