"It's okay, I can do it myself." Shuxin pushed the door open and got out of the car. She walked to the back of the car and opened the trunk. Just as she was about to take out her suitcase, Song Li took it away first. He then looked at Shuxin with a troubled expression. "Miss Shu, please don't make things difficult for me. I don't dare to disobey The Fifth Lord's orders."
"… Okay, thank you, Secretary Song." Shuxin was silent for a few seconds and said helplessly.
Song Li sent Shuxin upstairs and put her suitcase in the room before leaving. He went downstairs and got into the car. He hesitated for a moment and looked at the backseat. "The Fifth Lord, Miss Shu seems to be in a bad mood."
"Yeah." Huo Yanqing naturally noticed it too. It seemed to have started after he answered the phone. Huo Yanqing frowned in confusion and asked Song Li, "Did I say something wrong on the phone?"
Song Li replied, "No, I think Miss Shu is jealous and sulking."
Jealous?
Huo Yanqing raised his eyebrows slightly.
Song Li analyzed with his experience. "I think no woman can resist your charm, especially when you put in so much effort. So I think Miss Shu actually likes you, but you haven't expressed your feelings to her. Then, you said on the phone that you have a girlfriend. Miss Shu didn't know you were talking about her, so she's jealous."
Was his Xin 'er jealous?
Huo Yanqing was slightly stunned, and then a faint smile appeared on his face.
Song Li saw Huo Yanqing's cold and stiff face soften from the rearview mirror. He guessed that Huo Yanqing must be happy because he knew that Shuxin was jealous of him, so he boldly suggested, "The Fifth Lord, why don't you go up and sit?"
Huo Yanqing was silent for a few seconds. He leaned his tall body against the seat and slowly closed his eyes. "Let's go back."
"… Oh." Song Li roughly knew what Huo Yanqing was worried about. During this period of time, Huo Yanqing had been contacting domestic and foreign neurologists to consult them about the success rate of the surgery and research whether there was a better surgical method.
He had been by Huo Yanqing's side for five years, and this was the first time he saw Huo Yanqing wanting surgery so much. Huo Yanqing had never mentioned it before.
He knew that Huo Yanqing definitely wanted to see Miss Shu. If he couldn't even see what his beloved girl looked like, how regretful would that be?
However, the risk of the operation was very high. She might even lose her life. Therefore, Huo Yanqing suppressed his feelings for Miss Shu in his heart.
Sigh … The Fifth Lord was doing this for Miss Shu's sake, but he was the one who had to suffer.
After the car drove onto the main road for a while, Huo Yanqing said, "Tell her to come to my office at ten o 'clock tomorrow morning."
Song Li replied respectfully, "Okay, The Fifth Lord." He couldn't bear to see Miss Shu sad. He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself if he went up now. So, he needed to calm down and coax her tomorrow?
After Song Li left, Shuxin didn't even bother to pack her luggage. She plunged into the soft bed. Her heart tightened and ached terribly.
After a long while, her emotions slowly calmed down. Shuxin got up from the bed. Her eyes were red and a large part of the bedsheet was soaked by her tears.
Shuxin went to the bathroom to wash her face. She looked at the troubled woman in the mirror and clenched her fists to encourage herself. "Shuxin, you can do it. There are still many things waiting for you to do. Life can still be colorful without love."
Shuxin returned to her room, turned on her computer, and began to prepare the basic information for the company registration.
Time always passed very quickly when she was fully immersed in it.
