The metaphysical mother returns, and the villain son stands at attention

Chapter 17 No sense of security

They still had lunch in the company cafeteria. Liu Ergou joined them. While eating, he kept tapping his cell phone, saying that he wanted to expose Bai Jiali's evil deeds to prevent other colleagues from being cheated in the future.

Gu Qingyin didn't comment, put a mouthful of lychee flesh into her mouth, and couldn't help squinting her eyes. It was sweet and sour, delicious and appetizing!
Without the harassment from mentally ill people, Gu Qingyin's "white-collar life" was very comfortable.

Huo Xingye was under her care. He ate on time and got off work on time every day, and his complexion was obviously better than before.

Gu Qingyin felt that she could return to her job.

During this period, many people she used to know approached her, including colleagues and clients. Many of them asked her to come out to help, but she declined.

At that time, she thought that making money was not as important as her son's health, so she resisted the temptation of money. But now she couldn't help it anymore.

But before officially accepting the order, there is still one thing to be resolved.

"Xingye, has the friend who lives in your house recovered from his illness?" Gu Qingyin asked with concern.

Huo Xingye paused while reading the document and looked over with a normal expression, "Why did you think of asking her?"

Gu Qingyin said as a matter of course: "I have to start taking orders again. I will be busy in the future and will not have time to treat your friend unless he pays me."

Huo Xingye didn't listen to the rest of the conversation. He frowned and asked, "Are you going to take another ghost exorcism order? Can't you just not take it?"

Gu Qingyin glared at him, "What do you mean? I'm only 27 years old, strong and powerful. It's a good time to work hard and make money!"

Huo Xingye pursed his lips and said nothing, his temper visibly dropping.

Gu Qingyin frowned and asked, "What are you unhappy about?"

Huo Xingye still didn't speak.

Gu Qingyin sighed: "I like to be straightforward. I hate things that are roundabout. I'll ask you one last time, what are you unhappy about?"

Huo Xingye raised his eyes to look at her, and seeing that she had no expression on her face as if she was angry, he turned away and said, "I'm afraid you're in danger."

Gu Qingyin was very smart and understood his concerns immediately.

"Are you afraid that I'll suddenly disappear like I did 20 years ago?"

Huo Xingye didn't react, but the fingers holding the pen turned slightly white.

Gu Qingyin sighed and reached out to touch his head. "That was an accident. It's enough to have that happen once in a lifetime. I'm not a fool. I won't catch up with you again next time."

Seeing that Huo Xingye still didn't say anything, she groaned and whispered, "I'll tell you in secret, that list was not an ordinary ghost. It won't be so easy to encounter it a second time."

After saying that, Gu Qingyin quickly coughed and returned to her normal voice, "I can't say anything more, it's confidential. Son, you have to believe in mom. Mom doesn't want to leave you either."

Huo Xingye was a little shaken, "Is it true that there won't be a second time?"

Gu Qingyin nodded quickly, "It's really gone!"

Huo Xingye had a complicated expression, "Do you like catching ghosts so much?"

"It's not love, it's responsibility." Gu Qingyin said confidently, "As the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. I have learned a lot of skills, it would be a waste if I don't use them."

Huo Xingye was still not very happy, but he didn't stop him.

"Go if you want to, just protect yourself."

Gu Qingyin suddenly felt a sense of accomplishment as if she had been recognized by her master and had finally completed her studies and left the mountain.

A little weird.

She was silent for a second and changed the subject, "Your friend, do you really not need me to go check on her?" "No need." Huo Xingye started reviewing documents again, "She's almost recovered."

After get off work in the evening, Gu Qingyin took a car back to the old house. She would not come to the company from tomorrow onwards. Liu Ergou had an order for her to help, so she had to prepare in advance.

Huo Xingye watched Gu Qingyin's car leave before driving back to the apartment.

Auntie had already prepared the meal. Normally, she would leave after cooking, but today she stood by the table without moving. She spoke hesitantly, "Boss, I know I shouldn't meddle in other people's business, but Miss Wen, she doesn't look well. She hasn't eaten much in these days, and she's so thin that she looks unrecognizable."

Auntie couldn't help but redden her eyes when she said this, and choked up, "I don't know how big the conflict between you and Miss Wen was, but if there are misunderstandings and conflicts, just talk them out. Why do you have to ruin your body like this?"

Huo Xingye lowered his eyes and was silent for a long time before nodding, "Thank you for your hard work. You can go back first."

The aunt also knew that her influence was insignificant, so she sighed and left. She had done everything she could, and even if she was fired, she would accept it, but if she could really change something, she would have accumulated good fortune for herself.

Huo Xingye finished his meal in silence and went to the room at the end of the upstairs.

The moment he opened the door and saw Wen Ting, he was a little dazed. How could Wen Ting have lost so much weight? Her cheeks were sunken, her eyes were dark, her eyes were lifeless, and her lips were bloodless. She looked like... she was about to die.

"I thought you forgot about me."

Wen Ting was very weak. She could only say one sentence before gasping for breath.

Huo Xingye had indeed not come to see her for several days. She had changed so much.

"do you hate me?"

Wen Ting was a little surprised, then she smiled and said sarcastically, "Why don't you ask me if I've figured it out?"

What did you want to figure out? You wanted to be with him and be his Mrs. Huo.

This is the reason why Huo Xingye locked up Wen Ting.

However, considering the current situation, Huo Xingye couldn't ask.

No one is a fool. No one likes someone who hurts them, even in the name of love.

"Sorry." Huo Xingye lowered his eyes and left.

Wen Ting felt that Huo Xingye was a little strange tonight. She felt even more surprised when the door opened again and several doctors and nurses came in, put her on a stretcher and carried her out.

"Where are you taking me?" Wen Ting looked panicked, fearing that Huo Xingye would go crazy and carry her out to bury her. For a moment, she had the urge to compromise.

Fortunately, a gentle male voice sounded in time, "Don't be afraid, Miss Wen, we are doctors from Sanhe Hospital. Your health is seriously damaged, and I'm afraid you will have to stay in the hospital for a while."

Wen Ting turned her head and saw a young doctor in a white coat. He had a pair of smiling eyes and a slight curve at the corners of his lips, and looked very friendly.

She subconsciously relaxed her body, and then asked in disbelief: "Will Huo Xingye let me go?"

The young doctor nodded with a smile, "Of course, it was President Huo who personally asked us to come."

Wen Ting was silent until she got out of the elevator. Then she sneered, "Do you want to cure me and then continue to imprison me?"

"You think too much." The young man smiled and comforted, "Boss Huo will not make the same mistake twice."

Wen Ting was sent to the ambulance, and the young man sat next to her, lowered his eyes and advised in a gentle voice: "Miss Wen, please don't bother with Mr. Huo because he has turned back from his wrong path and is working hard to make amends."

Wen Ting stared at him blankly. Did he mean to let her pretend that nothing had happened? Then what was the suffering she had endured during this period? Did she deserve it?
