1735 Shangguan Yun’s Apology
Huo Yao did not know how her uncle got injured, but she was not in a position to ask that question. She simply looked at Liu’s arm. “Is your arm better?”
Liu promptly felt very touched by her concern. “I’m good. It’s just a superficial wound. Thank you for asking, Miss Huo.”
Out of fear that she did not believe him, he even patted the cast on his left hand.
Sadly, his pale face gave away the truth about how he really felt.
Liu went quiet.
Huo Yao veered her eyes and pretended not to notice anything amiss. She changed the subject and said, “I’m going upstairs to see my uncle.”
Liu sighed inwardly and nodded. “Okay, Miss Huo.”
He quickly went toward the lift door and pressed the button to go up.
Before long, Huo Yao and Min Yu walked into the lift. Liu’s admiration-filled face finally disappeared when the lift door closed.
Huo Yao pressed her brow and could sense a headache coming on.
Min Yu smiled ambiguously and said, “Miss Huo, when are you going to show some concern for your boyfriend?”
Huo Yao immediately raised her foot and kicked him expressionlessly. “Would you like some attention from my legs?”
Min Yu went speechless.
She was most definitely heartless.
The lift chimed when it got to the 11th floor.
The two of them walked out of the lift.
Huo Yao went to see her eldest uncle first. After checking his pulse, she finally felt less worried.
His condition was far better than expected.
After she was done, she went to the hospital ward to see Shangguan Yun.
Even though Shangguan Yun had donated over 1000 millimeters of blood, he recovered very quickly. He only needed to sleep for three hours before he woke up.
Although his face remained a little pale, he was rather energetic overall. Huo Yao walked into the room to see him sitting on the bed cross-legged playing video games with Zhuo Yun.
The two of them seemed to be having heaps of fun.
When Huo Yao saw them, she smiled and said, “From the looks of it, I didn’t draw enough blood from you.”
Shangguan Yun was startled.
Oh god! He was dead meat!
Zhuo Yun did not expect Huo Yao and Min Yu to come over at this hour. He cleared his throat and quickly put away his phone. He stood up and nodded to them politely.
Shangguan Yun flung his phone aside and whined in an apologetic tone. “Sister, I’m sorry.”
Huo Yao reached her foot out to hook a chair over. She sat down casually. “Didn’t you just donate blood to save someone? What wrong could you possibly have done?”
The moment Shangguan Yun caught Huo Yao’s tone, a rather ominous feeling rose in his heart.
Each time Huo Yao spoke in this ambiguous tone, he always ended up getting made to kneel in the ancestral hall as punishment.
Shangguan Yun scratched his head and asked cautiously. “Didn’t you promise to treat me better during the day?”
“Of course.” Huo Yao nodded. She turned to look at Zhuo Yun. “He always likes to play. Can you make arrangements for people to come to play with him for the next couple of days?”
Shangguan Yun opened his eyes wide in shock. He shook his head anxiously. “No. I don’t like playing at all. I have lost too much blood. The moment I start to play, I feel giddy.”
As he spoke, he lay back on the bed weakly and pretended he was unwell.
Zhuo Yun’s lips twitched.
He certainly did not seem this way earlier when they played video games together.
“Don’t worry. Nothing that a bit of pig liver can’t fix.” Huo Yao smiled even harder.
Shangguan Yun went quiet.
“Enough. Go ahead, guys.” Huo Yao clapped her hands and stood up to leave.
“Hey! Sister…” Shangguan Yun instantly stood up.
When Huo Yao turned to leave with no intention of coming back, he promptly looked at Min Yu hopefully. “Brother-in-Law?”
“I have very low status in the family as well.” Min Yu sighed softly and turned to leave as well.
“…”
