Chapter 210. Who am I for?

As soon as Zhang Li left, Wen Li told Li Hong, "When you return to school later, if you run into Professor Huo, tell him that Zhang Li came to my studio to cause trouble for me."

Li Hong was puzzled, "Sister Wen Li, why don't you tell Teacher Huo in person?"

Wen Li smiled and said, "Of course it's because I don't want to bother with him. But because of their family's problems, someone came to my house and threatened me. I have to let him know and solve his family's problems as soon as possible, so as not to implicate innocent people like me."

Li Hong agreed and told Huo Yuanchen the matter that day.

She thought Huo Yuanchen would at least ask her what Zhang Li and Wen Li had said. For this reason, she wrote down her thoughts twice on the way back, fearing that she might have missed any details.

Unexpectedly, Huo Yuanchen didn't ask anything, but just nodded lightly and said, "I know."

Li Hong opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she didn't know where to start.

She stood stiffly in Huo Yuanchen's office, at a loss as to what to do. Just as she was hesitating, the office door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and An Wen came in with a cane. Although her legs and feet were inconvenient, she walked quite fast. As soon as she entered the door, she walked straight towards Huo Yuanchen without even looking at her.

"Brother Yuanchen, I'm out of the hospital. The doctor said my leg is fine and I don't need to stay in the hospital anymore."

As An Wen spoke, she held the crutch with one hand and shook it in front of Huo Yuanchen to prove to him that she was moving normally.

Then, she bent down, lifted up one side of her skirt, revealing half of her white thigh, and said in a coquettish tone, "Look, there are no scars on my legs, they are all fine."

Huo Yuanchen glanced at it and then looked away, "Very good."

An Wen said with eyes curved, "Thank you Brother Yuanchen for finding me the best orthopedic surgeon. He is much better than the crappy doctor in Xinfeng Village. The doctor in Xinfeng Village only told me to stay in bed. The doctor that Brother Yuanchen found knows both Chinese and Western medicine, and he also gave me acupuncture. Otherwise, I wouldn't have recovered so quickly."

The medical skills of Haishi's top three hospitals are naturally not comparable to those of township hospitals. Li Hong frowned slightly.

She couldn't help but say, "Xuemei An, I know you and Teacher Huo have known each other for a long time, but this is still in school, it's more proper for you to call her teacher."

She was really grateful to Huo Yuanchen. She even felt that her greatest luck in life was to meet such a good teacher like Huo Yuanchen.

It's not like no one in the school had ever talked about the relationship between Huo Yuanchen and An Wen. She instinctively didn't want the teacher she admired to be associated with those rumors, so she kindly reminded An Wen.

An Wen glanced at her. Although she didn't show any expression, her eyes were quite disdainful. She even pouted and asked Huo Yuanchen, "Brother Yuanchen, are you busy now?"

Huo Yuanchen didn't answer her. Instead, he looked at Li Hong and said, "I've taken note of what you just said. If there's nothing else, just go and do your thing."

Li Hong nodded and left.

As soon as she left, An Wen's face drooped, and she said unhappily, "Who does she think she is? Why does she care so much? Isn't she just a few years older than me? Does she really think she is the senior sister? No matter how old she is, isn't she still like me, a student of Brother Yuanchen?"

She acted coquettishly towards Huo Yuanchen again, "I don't want to call you teacher. So many students call you that. It's so boring. I want to call you Brother Yuanchen. That's so special, right, Brother Yuanchen?"

Huo Yuanchen was sorting out the experimental data in his hands with his head down. Hearing this, he said without raising his head, "What Li Hong said is right."

An Wen's pout got even worse. She said sullenly, "No, I want to call you Brother Yuanchen. I've been calling you that for so many years, and I don't want to change my name."

Huo Yuanchen sighed, looking somewhat helpless. He said, "You can call me whatever you want."

An Wen was happy now. She pretended to pull Huo Yuanchen's arm, "Brother Yuanchen, since I'm out of the hospital, let's go out for dinner tonight to celebrate."

She could ask Huo Yuanchen to celebrate any big or small thing that happened to her, and she thought this would be what she wanted.

Unexpectedly, Huo Yuanchen turned off the computer and said, "Not tonight, I have something to go home for. I'll send you a red envelope, and you and your classmates can go celebrate."

An Wen immediately guessed that he was going back to the Huo family villa, and said with a smile, "Then I'll go back with you. I haven't seen Uncle Huo for a long time, so I should go to his house to say hello."

Huo Yuanchen still didn't agree, "It's not convenient tonight, let's do it another day."

An Wen was stunned for a long time before she nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, then Brother Yuanchen, you go ahead and do your work. I'll celebrate with me when you're free."

She was sensitive and felt that Huo Yuanchen was not as nice to her today as he was before. He did not help her when Li Hong said that and refused to take her back to the Huo family.

She felt sad and managed to walk a few steps with the help of a cane. She couldn't bear the grievance in her heart and tears flowed like crazy before she even left the office.

On the way back, she thought about all the reasons why Huo Yuanchen would ignore her. After thinking about it, she felt that her brother Yuanchen would not hate him for no reason. It must be Wen Li's doing.

I hated Wen Li even more.

When Huo Yuanchen returned to the Huo family villa, Huo Mingqi was sitting on the sofa reading the financial report. The living room was quiet, with no other sound except the occasional sound of turning pages.

The Huo family's living room is very large, making Huo Mingqi's originally tall figure seem lonely.

Huo Yuanchen glanced at the restaurant. Dinner was placed on the table, but it looked like no one had touched it yet. It was obviously the work of the family chef. The colors looked good, but it lacked a bit of homely flavor.

He asked casually, "My mother hasn't come back yet?"

Huo Mingqi heard this and threw the financial report in his hand away with a big move. He said in a bad tone, "I'm afraid that in your mother's heart, this place is no longer her home."

Huo Yuanchen raised his eyebrows and said indifferently, "I have often heard my mother mention what you just said before."

He paused, then added, "But I rarely hear my mother say that lately."

Huo Mingqi looked at his son with a bad expression, " What do you want to say?"

Huo Yuanchen said calmly, "It's nothing. I heard you complain about my mom, so I just wanted to share with you what my mom said when you were not at home."

Huo Mingqi smashed a cup beside him and said, "Are you blaming me for ignoring your mother?"

Huo Yuanchen said, "It's OK as long as you don't feel left out. As a son, I can't criticize you on this matter. But there is one thing I've always been curious about. If you like Aunt Li so much, why did you marry my mother?"

Huo Mingqi said heavily, "If I didn't marry Michelle Chik, where would you be in this world?"

Huo Yuanchen said expressionlessly, "Don't say it as if it's for me. If you had married Aunt Li back then, I'm afraid you would like your own children more."

Huo Mingqi sneered and said, "You think I'm not good to you? Then have you ever thought about why Lili has been with me for so many years and can't even give birth to a child? If it weren't for you, would I have done such a ruthless thing?"

Huo Yuanchen was silent for a while, then said in a very calm tone, "You are so cruel."
