Chapter 1011 - 1053: Jealous
Huo Junmo gave Ling Yueyue a warning look, and said in a deep voice, "Don’t listen to her, handle it however it needs to be handled!"
The doctor said truthfully, "I don’t have all the medicines here. If it’s convenient for you, it’d be best to accompany me to the hospital."
"Miss Ye, please sit here for a moment. I’ll take Yueyue to the hospital first! Don’t worry, I’ll instruct someone to take care of you!" Without giving it a second thought, Huo Junmo reassured Ye Anxin, then directly lifted Ling Yueyue from her chair and followed the doctor out with large strides.
Being carried by Huo Junmo all the way, Ling Yueyue almost felt the surrounding ambiguous eyes focused on her. Her face flushed crimson, she wriggled her body in refusal and teased, "Hey, Huo Junmo, I’m really okay. You’re overreacting! So many people are watching us! Like this, how will I face people in the future? Besides, it’s my arm that’s injured, not my leg. I can walk by myself, quickly put me down!"
Huo Junmo swept a cold gaze at the surrounding people, who hurriedly lowered their heads, pretending to be busy with their own matters, not daring to look at them!
After everyone’s gaze dispersed, Huo Junmo leisurely said, "Who’s looking? I didn’t see anyone."
"...!" Ling Yueyue was stunned and glanced around! Only to find that the employees of the Huo Tian Group who were watching them earlier had lowered their heads doing their own tasks, as if they hadn’t noticed them at all!
Huo Junmo warned patiently, "Alright, behave or I’ll have you tied up! You’re already hurt and still won’t rest!"
Ling Yueyue grinned and attempted to reach for Huo Junmo’s neck, but forgot her arm was injured. As soon as she moved, pain made her sweat excessively again.
Seeing her face contorted from pain, a hint of pity flashed in Huo Junmo’s eyes. He frowned and asked, "If it hurts, don’t move! Be careful or I’ll really tie you up!"
Far from being angry at his warning, Ling Yueyue smiled with squinted eyes and smugly said, "Are you feeling sorry for me?"
"...!" Huo Junmo glanced at her with his dark eyes, pursed his thin lips tightly, and didn’t answer her.
The more he remained silent, the bigger Ling Yueyue’s smile grew. Her heart grew sweet and she even forgot about the injury on her arm, continuing, "If you don’t answer, I’ll take it as a tacit agreement! I’ve noticed for a long time that you actually like me, care for me, and are concerned about me, aren’t you? You’ve been paying attention to me from very early on, right?"
Huo Junmo’s face flushed with embarrassment, his lips moved slightly before he muttered vaguely, "Say whatever you want!"
Upon hearing his words, Ling Yueyue couldn’t hold back her laughter, delighting, "Haha! I knew it, I guessed right. You’ve been watching me for a long time, holding a favorable impression! Honestly, for a grown man, who’s been married and has kids, you are less open than me! If you like someone, just admit it; what’s with the coyness and the lack of courage to confess!"
Seeing Ling Yueyue talking endlessly, Huo Junmo furrowed his brows and reminded, "Alright, keep quiet while you’re injured!"
Ling Yueyue blinked her bright eyes, glancing around vividly at Huo Junmo, pretending innocence, "My arm’s injured, not my mouth, so why can’t I talk?"
"...!" Huo Junmo glared at her and ignored her, continuing to carry her forward behind the doctor!
Ling Yueyue didn’t care whether Huo Junmo responded. She used her uninjured hand to loop around his neck and leaned her head against his warm chest, speaking on her own, "Honestly, you’re fortunate to marry me, truly blessed by good luck for several lifetimes! Just look at me, I’m young, beautiful, lively, and adorable, with a good personality and temper! You’re nine whole years older than me! Look, I didn’t even mind your age, and I’m helping you to raise your kid! Am I not great or what? With a wife as good as I am, you ought to cherish and treat me well!"
Huo Junmo raised his brows, smiling wryly, "An old man?"
Ling Yueyue tilted her head, confidently saying, "What? You’re admitting it! When we registered for marriage, I secretly peeked at your date of birth! I’m twenty this year, you’re twenty-nine, a whole nine years older! They say every three years is a generation gap; we have three generation gaps, aren’t you old?"
Huo Junmo, displeased, retorted, "Then why did you marry me?"
"Oh, people just say you’re old, but didn’t say they don’t like you! Besides, I think older men are gentle and understanding, I just like those who are older than me!" Saying this, she didn’t forget to cast an arrogant glance at Huo Junmo.
Hearing her repeatedly calling him an old man, Huo Junmo’s face darkened, displeased, "Alright, stop calling me an old man every time! Men are like blooming flowers at forty, I’m not even thirty yet, not as old as you say!"
"...!" Ling Yueyue gazed from below at Huo Junmo’s chiseled chin, her watery eyes blinking, and blinking again.
Is this man concerned about what she said? Is he angry because she called him old? Or does he want to maintain a tall and perfect image in her heart?
Haha, if a man starts to care about his image in your heart, it proves you already hold a special place in his heart!
So it suggests Huo Junmo isn’t just having a simple good impression; it’s an overwhelming fondness, isn’t it?
Thinking of this, Ling Yueyue’s heart feels even sweeter, her smile widening!
Watching Huo Junmo trying to maintain seriousness, yet with eyes that couldn’t hide embarrassment, Ling Yueyue mischievously rolled her eyes and suddenly kissed him on the chin, sweetly smiling and pretending to be mysterious, "Honestly, I’m quite curious, when did you start noticing me, or rather, when did you start liking me?"
"...!" Huo Junmo’s handsome face reddened, he lowered his head, glanced coldly at her, lips tightly pursed, just refusing to answer her!
"Haha...! I knew it, I, Ling Yueyue, am irresistibly charming and unbeatable, I can definitely win over any man I set my sights on! Haha...!" The more Huo Junmo stayed silent, the more smug Ling Yueyue became!
Gradually, she became carried away!
Upon hearing her, Huo Junmo raised his brows, smiling wryly, "It seems there are quite a few men you’re interested in? Tell me, exactly how many men have you won over?"
"...!" Hearing Huo Junmo’s slightly jealous tone, Ling Yueyue was momentarily stunned, then she cracked a bigger smile, teasing, "What’s up? Are you jealous because I said I have many men I like?"
Huo Junmo felt awkward, he pretended to be calm, leisurely saying, "My taste is mild, I only eat salt, not vinegar!"
