Chapter 626: A lifetime of Braids

In the end, Huo Jingchen simply asked Xie Yumian to stay over and inject her with glucose every day.

The Gu family sent someone to deliver a supplement once, but Huo Jingchen threw it out directly.

The whole mall was in a bloody mess.

No one knew what had happened. All they knew was that the huo family was waging a war against the Gu family.

Regardless of grandfather Huo's obstruction, Huo Jingchen would interfere with any project the GU family was involved in and try his best to suppress them. He would even sacrifice himself to destroy the Gu family's business.

Almost everyone was waiting for the Gu family to fight back. They were waiting for the battle between the two aristocratic families.

However, what surprised everyone was that the Gu family did not fight back at all. They only retreated again and again.

Everyone was discussing what had happened, but no reliable truth was revealed.

"President, the Gu family is really abnormal. We snatched the big project that they had been preparing for three years, but the Gu family didn't react at all, " Tang Qi said in a low voice. He couldn't understand why the GU family suddenly changed their attitude.

"Send someone to check if Gu Shiyu has any backup plans. Keep an eye on his recent actions, " Huo Jingchen said coldly, his gaze deepening.

"Yes. "

After Huo Jingchen hung up the phone, he turned to look at Zhao Siqing, who was sitting on the Sofa, and said softly, "can you comb two braids today? When you recover, will you dislike me for not letting me comb your hair again? "

The comb in his hand gently brushed through the woman's soft hair. Huo Jingchen clumsily braided her braids.

"I want to comb your braids for the rest of your life, okay? " Huo Jingchen's gaze was gentle as he said softly.

Zhao Siqing was wearing a white nightgown. She Sat on the Sofa and watched TV. Her gaze was still empty and did not have any reaction.

Huo Jingchen did not speak again. He carefully tied two sunflower-decorated hairbands on the ends of her two braids.

Huo Jingchen slowly let go of his hand. His gaze fell on the woman who was losing weight at a speed visible to the naked eye. He felt an indescribable pain in his heart.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, followed by Xie Yumian's voice, "Jingchen, it's time to give Qing Qing an injection of glucose... "

Huo Jingchen retracted his gaze and turned to open the door for Xie Yumian.

Xie Yumian looked at the man whose eyes were bloodshot and who had also lost a lot of weight. She said softly, "I added some nutrients into it, but it's not going to go on like this. I still have to let her eat. "

Huo Jingchen did not say anything. Xie Yumian turned around and walked to Zhao Siqing's side, sighing softly.

"Qingqing, I'm here to see you again. Last time, you said you wanted to treat me to a meal. I've been waiting for you, " Xie Yumian said softly as she took out the needle.

Zhao Siqing was unmoved by this. She just watched the television attentively, but no one knew how much she was looking at it.

Huo Jingchen helped to pinch her wrist. He looked at the bruises on the back of her hand and pursed his thin lips. His heart ached terribly.

Zhao Siqing didn't feel anything about it. It was as if she was already numb to it.

Not long after the drip was put on, Zhao Siqing fell asleep.

Huo Jingchen covered her with a thin blanket and left the room quietly.

"Sir, there are a lot of letters in the second bedroom. It's been a long time and some of them are dusty. I don't know what to do with them, " the maid said in a low voice.

"You can leave first. "

"Yes. "

Huo Jingchen walked to the second bedroom and saw a large pile of colorful envelopes on the coffee table. There was also a portion of unopened letter paper in the box on the floor.

Huo Jingchen picked up a letter from the box and saw a short line of words, "after falling in love with someone, you will always feel that you are not good enough. "
