When Wen Li and Huo Yuanchen returned to the outside of the operating room together, Huo Mingqi glanced at them indifferently.
Although she showed no expression, Wen Li still blushed.
She always felt that Huo Mingqi's look was quite meaningful, as if he already knew what she and Huo Yuanchen had done outside just now.
Huo Yuanchen's expression remained normal. He glanced at the closed door of the operating room, then sat down and waited without saying a word.
Half an hour later, the operating room door opened.
Michelle Yim was pushed out, her head wrapped tightly with gauze, her eyes closed, and her face pale.
Huo Yuanchen was the first to come over and asked, "Doctor, how is my mother?"
The doctor said, "The patient mainly suffered from multiple wounds and bleeding, a ruptured spleen, and a moderate concussion. After rescue, he is no longer in danger of death. He will need to stay in the hospital for observation and keep an eye on changes in his condition."
Huo Yuanchen nodded and asked, "When will my mother wake up?"
"General anesthesia was used during the operation. The effect of the drug will wear off in about half an hour, and the patient will wake up. However, the patient may feel a lot of pain after waking up, so family members should pay more attention to the patient's emotions."
Huo Yuanchen thanked him and followed the doctor to pay the bill.
Wen Li wanted to follow but was stopped by Huo Mingqi.
He was also very tall, and Huo Yuanchen probably inherited his height from him. He looked down at Wen Li with a very cold gaze, and when he spoke, his tone was quite arrogant.
"Wen Li, let's talk while Yuan Chen is away."
Wen Li paused and nodded.
Huo Mingqi said, "I sympathize with your family's situation, but sympathy is sympathy. I only have one child, Yuanchen, and I definitely hope that he can marry a daughter-in-law of equal status in the future. After all, with a business as big as the Huo family, letting a daughter-in-law of ordinary family marry in will only make people laugh."
Wen Li didn't say anything, waiting for him to continue.
Huo Mingqi added, "In fact, if Yuanchen really likes you, it doesn't matter if you don't have a good family background. It's not impossible to marry her and slowly cultivate her. But you can't do that. I wo n't agree to Yuanchen being with you. Don't blame me for looking down on you. If nothing else, think about how many men you have had relationships with. Meng Jinnian is one, and not long ago there was also that guy from the Cheng family. Your past can't stand up to scrutiny. If Yuanchen is with you, I don't know what the media will write about it. Our Huo family is well-known and we can't afford to lose this person."
Wen Li waited quietly for him to finish, then asked him calmly, "Uncle Huo, are you done?"
Huo Mingqi nodded, "It's over. Can you understand uncle's good intentions?"
Wen Li smiled and said, "Not really. I don't understand a few points. Uncle Huo, you said that your family can't marry a daughter-in-law from an ordinary family. Did Yuan Chen's grandparents also tell you the same thing? That's why you gave up your white moonlight and married Aunt Qi?"
She tidied up the hair around her ears and said sarcastically, "You said that in order to get the support of Aunt Qi's family, you could have just gotten married honestly, but after getting married, you still had an affair with your old lover and even allowed your lover to bully your original wife. Isn't this a bit too bad? Your affair with Zhang Li is well known outside. How can you afford to lose this person?"
Huo Mingqi looked at her with an unpleasant expression for a long while, and suddenly laughed strangely a few times.
"Okay, okay, okay. Since you said this to me in front of me, it seems that you have made up your mind and never want to enter the Huo family in this life."
Wen Li said calmly, "Is the Huo family a royal palace? Anyone can enter? That's not right. You can enter the Forbidden City by buying a ticket, and the ticket is only a few dozen yuan. The threshold of the Huo family is higher than that of the Forbidden City. Is it difficult to enter?"
Huo Mingqi stared at her without saying anything, but his smile was quite creepy.
Wen Li continued, "Instead of humiliating me with words and trying to make me give up, you should persuade your son to stop bothering me."
Huo Mingqi said, "I was wrong. You are a good speaker. I heard that you opened a studio and your business is pretty good, so your income is not bad. Although your family's current financial situation is not as good as before, the money you earn should be enough for your parents to live on in their old age."
Wen Li's face changed. "Are you threatening me? Then I know why Zhang Li is so fearless. After all, you and Zhang Li are the same kind of people. When you are angry and embarrassed, you will threaten others."
Huo Mingqi didn't speak for a moment.
He didn't really want to do anything to Wen Li. The difference in status was too great, and if he really took action against Wen Li, it would be a loss of face.
Saying that was just because he was irritated by Wen Li's mouth.
He was used to being high and mighty, and there was no shortage of people fawning on him, but he had never been treated like this before. Wen Li made him lose face.
After a while, he said, "As long as you promise not to disturb my wife and children, I can also promise not to disturb your life and your parents' life. In fact, your studio's business will be better."
Wen Li snorted coldly, but before he could say anything, Huo Yuanchen had already returned.
He heard Huo Mingqi's last words and said with a very unhappy face, "You should save what you just said to Zhang Li. Ask her not to disturb my mother and Wen Li again."
Huo Mingqi frowned and wanted to speak, but Huo Yuanchen had already pulled Wen Li away.
"Wen Li and I are going to see my mother. If you are okay, go back first. My mother just had surgery. Please make her happy."
When Wen Li rushed to the ward, Qi Meizhen had just woken up. The moment she saw Wen Li, a gentle smile appeared on her face.
"I'm sorry, Xiao Li. I promised to treat you to a meal, but I got into a car accident and I have to ask you to stay at the hospital to watch over me."
Wen Li hurried over and held her hand. "Aunt Qi, don't say that. You can eat at any time. It's most important that you take good care of yourself and recover soon."
Maggie Cheung was very tired after the operation and wanted to sleep again after just a few words. Fortunately, her physical indicators were not too bad, and the doctor also told her to sleep if she could, as a good rest would help her body recover.
Just as she fell asleep, Wen Li saw Huo Yuanchen winking at her, motioning her to go to the corridor to talk.
"The surveillance video was sent to me. The motorcycle that hit my mom didn't have a license plate."
Huo Yuanchen showed Wen Li the video he had just received.
In the picture, you can clearly see that the motorcycle is going very fast and is definitely speeding. There is no license plate on it and the driver is wearing a thick helmet, so you can't see what he looks like at all.
Wen Li watched the entire video. Huo Yuanchen asked her, "What do you think?"
Wen Li thought about it and said his guess, "This is a bit too coincidental."
It happened just after Zhang Li was neglected by Huo Mingqi after he seized power. It happened that the motorcycle had no license plate. It happened that the person hit was Michelle Yim, and the injuries were not life-threatening.
It seemed as if someone was deliberately trying to make Michelle Yim suffer.
Huo Yuanchen said coldly, "It's too coincidental, it must be man-made."
