"Beichen, if it were you, what would you do?" After listening to Huo Beichen's words, Zhao Yu thought for a moment before asking.

"This kind of situation will never happen to me." Huo Beichen said arrogantly.

Looking at Huo Beichen's face that was shining with confidence, Zhao Yu understood the gap between himself and the other party. From childhood to adulthood, Huo Beichen had always been a proactive person.

Besides, Huo Beichen had never failed to get anything he wanted.

However, the other party is a thoughtful, independent, and living person. Zhao Yu does not believe that Huo Beichen can win the game in the face of so many uncertain factors.

"Even if Ning Xi has no feelings for you, will you still force her to stay by your side?" Thinking of this, Zhao Yu couldn't help but continue asking.

Facing Zhao Yu's relentless pursuit, Huo Beichen snorted and said, "No matter what, I have already married her home. Even if she has no feelings for me, she is still my, Huo Beichen's, wife in name."

"And you, after pursuing me for so many years, Jingjing still hasn't cleared your name. Ayu, my situation is completely different from yours."

Seeing Zhao Yu's frustrated expression, Huo Beichen couldn't bear it. He swallowed back the more straightforward words he wanted to say and changed his words: "Don't blame me for not teaching you. While your grandfather is sick this time, marry Jingjing as soon as possible."

"There is a long way to go. After you two have been together for a while, I believe Jingjing will slowly change her attitude towards you."

"Just like you and Ning Xi?" Hearing the hidden meaning in Huo Beichen's words, Zhao Yu continued to ask.

Huo Beichen nodded gently and said frankly: "At least so far, Ning Xi does not reject me, and I can see that she is willing to continue living with me."

Zhao Yu nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Beichen, are you really moved this time?"

In response to Zhao Yu's question, Huo Beichen responded without hiding anything: "Ning Xi is a very good girl. It is normal for me to be attracted to her. Besides, she is very suitable for me. I believe we can live a peaceful and stable life together."

"I didn't expect that you have already started planning to spend the rest of your life with Ning Xi. Compared to you, I am really far behind." Huo Beichen's words hit Zhao Yu again.

Actually, Zhao Yu and Cheng Jingjing got engaged much earlier than Huo Beichen and Mu Ningxi got their marriage certificate, but while both of them were about to get married, he and Cheng Jingjing were still standing still.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu became more depressed.

"She is my wife. What's wrong with planning the future with her?" Zhao Yu's words obviously made Huo Beichen a little unhappy.

Hearing the other party's protective expression, Zhao Yu was surprised again. Is this still the Huo Beichen he knew before? He defended a woman like this. Even the previous man had never received such high treatment in front of Beichen.

Matters of the heart are really hard to explain. Some people stay together for a long time, but their fate is still not as good as that of others who meet by chance.

Thinking of his and Cheng Jingjing's current situation again, Zhao Yu sighed deeply.

"The nurse should have finished helping Ning Xi. I have to go back to the ward now. Ah Yu, listen to my advice. You have to cut the Gordian knot and propose to Jing Jing as soon as possible."

"If she is willing, then everyone is happy. If she is not willing, there is no need for you to continue to waste your energy on her. If you continue to drag it out, it will only make both of you more miserable."

As a good brother, Huo Beichen could only stop there. After all, he was an outsider, and the matter between Zhao Yu and Cheng Jingjing could only be decided by the two parties involved.

Looking at Huo Beichen's hurriedly leaving back, Zhao Yu fell on the office chair and closed his eyes tiredly.

Jingjing, what do you want me to do?

Zhao Yu hesitated whether to maintain the status quo or to go further.

After returning to the ward, Huo Beichen thought that Mu Ningxi would lie down on the bed to continue resting after cleaning herself. Unexpectedly, as soon as he pushed open the door of the ward, he saw Mu Ningxi leaning on the back of the bed, staring at the thing in her hand.

Mu Ningxi was so focused that she didn't even notice Huo Beichen coming in.

It wasn't until a hand reached out and took the document from her hand that Mu Ningxi exclaimed, "What are you doing?"

As she spoke, Mu Ningxi looked in the direction where the hand was extended, and immediately saw Huo Beichen's face filled with gloom.

"They came to visit me just now, and brought me some documents that have been piled up over the past few days. Anyway, I have nothing to do right now, so I took them and took a look."

Knowing that she was in the wrong, Mu Ningxi stared at Huo Beichen and said guiltily.

"Was it your assistant's doing?" Seeing that Mu Ningxi was unwilling to say who came to visit her, Huo Beichen asked directly.

Without Mu Ningxi's order, how could outsiders easily touch these documents? Besides, who else could have gotten these documents from Mu Ningxi's office except her assistant?

"It's none of her business. I asked her to bring it." After hearing Huo Beichen point out who took the document, Mu Ningxi was worried that the other party would be punished for it, so she quickly said that it was her order.

Throwing the documents in his hand onto the table beside him, Huo Beichen said in a bad tone: "Do you think I am an evil capitalist who will not let my employees go even if they are sick and bedridden, and will force them to continue working for me?"

"Of course you are not that kind of person. I'm just bored lying here and wanted to find something to do." Mu Ningxi quickly defended herself.

"Your current task is to concentrate on healing. You don't need to worry about other things." Looking at Mu Ningxi who was so reckless, Huo Beichen didn't know whether to be happy or sad, and he responded helplessly.

Seeing that her rights were being taken away, Mu Ningxi was dissatisfied, but she could do nothing about Huo Beichen. After glancing at Huo Beichen, Mu Ningxi turned her eyes away from his face.

"I'm doing this for your own good. Your injury this time is quite serious. You must rest well in order to restore your body to its previous condition."

Huo Beichen sighed when he saw that Mu Ningxi was acting like a spoiled brat.

Huo Beichen felt very upset when he recalled what Zhao Yu had said, that if Mu Ningxi didn't take good care of her body this time, she might not be able to get pregnant in the future.

Although he really didn't like children very much, Huo Beichen could see that Mu Ningxi liked children very much, otherwise, she would not have treated Zheng Zihao like that before.

If this incident affects Mu Ningxi's right to reproduce, Huo Beichen will never forgive himself in his life.

In order to prevent Mu Ningxi from feeling traumatized, Huo Beichen did not intend to tell her about this.

"Except for some minor injuries, my body has almost recovered. I... cough cough cough, I'm really fine... cough cough cough..."

I don’t know if it was because he was too impatient, but Mu Ningxi started coughing non-stop after just saying a few words.

"You said you had almost recovered. If that was true, why were you coughing so badly?" Seeing Mu Ningxi coughing non-stop, Huo Beichen reached out his hand and patted her back while scolding her.

The cough affected Mu Ningxi's performance, so she stopped trying to make excuses for herself.

After patting her a few times, seeing that Mu Ningxi's cough was not as severe as before, Huo Beichen stood up and walked to the coffee table not far away, filled a cup with warm water, returned to Mu Ningxi, and helped her to feed her water.

"Master, Haowen just called and told me..." At this time, A Kun broke into the room, speaking excitedly as he walked.

Startled by A Kun's sudden intrusion, Mu Ningxi choked on the water in the cup and started coughing again.

"Who told you to come in without knocking?" Huo Beichen scolded unhappily while continuing to pat Mu Ningxi's back.

Seeing that he had gotten into trouble, A Kun glanced at Huo Beichen, then at Mu Ningxi who was coughing non-stop, and his expression became nervous.

"It's okay. It was my own carelessness. It has nothing to do with A Kun." After stopping coughing, Mu Ningxi quickly pleaded for A Kun.

Madam, I knew you were the best person in the world.

Hearing Mu Ningxi pleading for him, A Kun was very grateful.

Glancing at Mu Ningxi, Huo Beichen suppressed his anger and asked in a cold voice, "What's the matter with you coming in?"

Ah Kun's previous excited expression had completely disappeared because of this small change. Looking at Huo Beichen, he reported in a low voice:

"Haowen told me that Mr. Bai just called him and they have already made an appointment to discuss the details of the land in Shancheng."

Thinking that Mu Ningxi was hurt because of this piece of land, and just after hearing Liu Haowen's report on the phone, A Kun ran to Huo Beichen so excitedly.

In this way, the young lady would not be injured in vain.

"Oh, so that's the case. Why did Mr. Bai make such a decision?" Huo Beichen and Mu Ningxi were both puzzled by the change in Mr. Bai's attitude.

You know, before, Huo Beichen asked someone who was familiar with Mr. Bai to find the other party, but was rejected by Mr. Bai.

"Haowen doesn't know the details either. He said Mr. Bai mentioned the young lady on the phone and said he wanted to meet her if he had a chance."

A Kun shook his head and reported to Huo Beichen and the others what Liu Haowen had said on the phone.
