Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo
Chapter 75 The Warmth of Best Friends
Huo Chenyuan was concentrating on packing his luggage when his phone screen suddenly lit up and he saw the message from Ning Tingnan.
So he quickly tapped the screen of his phone, replied "No need" and put the phone back in his pocket.
Just two words, but the tone was filled with alienation.
At this moment, Huo Chenyuan knew that the past was past, and the person in front of him was the one he should focus on.
After sending the message, he continued with the packing work.

At midnight, around 12 o'clock, the hustle and bustle of the city gradually calmed down. In the silence, Lin Yunzheng woke up from a trance.
In the room, moonlight gently sprinkled on the bed, adding a touch of mystery to the quiet night. She rubbed her eyes and picked up the phone beside her pillow.
After unlocking the screen, Huo Chenyuan's message jumped into her eyes: "Yun Zheng, I miss you. I returned home early today, just hoping to see you earlier." These words, like a warm beam of light, instantly illuminated Lin Yunzheng's heart.
During this period of time, the pain and loneliness brought by her mother's death almost overwhelmed her, but at this moment, she felt an unprecedented strength and peace of mind.
Tears silently slid down my cheeks.
Lin Yunzheng immediately replied: "I miss you too, please come back soon." The short text, carrying full of longing and expectation, flew away with the signal.
Lin Yunzheng also saw Song Tiancheng's message. She was very grateful to him these past few days, but she didn't want him to have any more illusions, so she replied: "Thank you for your help. The best we can do is be friends. I believe you will find your own happiness."
Just then, the phone vibrated again, and the name of her best friend Tang Xiaqing appeared on the screen, followed by a string of missed calls.
Apparently, her best friend had been trying to contact her. Lin Yunzheng chose to answer the call, and a familiar yet slightly anxious voice came to her ears.
"Hello, Yun Zheng? Are you okay?" Tang Xiaqing's voice was anxious and concerned. "I've been trying to contact you and called you several times."
Lin Yunzheng was silent for a moment, then began to explain: "I'm sorry, I didn't tell you about my mother because... you know I'm pregnant recently, and I didn't want to make you worry, nor did I want to cause you trouble." Before she finished speaking, a sigh came from the other end of the phone.
"Silly girl, you should have told me at this time!" Tang Xiaqing's tone turned gentle, "This is the meaning of friendship."
"Thank you." Lin Yunzheng felt that this was what a good girlfriend was like. Even if they hadn't seen each other for a long time, they would always care about each other.
Tang Xiaqing continued anxiously, "I was worried about you and even went to your home in Qianyue Jiayuan to check on you. However, I noticed a lot of people downstairs. From what I heard, I felt like they were reporters, coming for you. They were waiting for you to show up. Take a look at the photos that are trending on the news right now."
Lin Yunzheng saw the news forwarded by Tang Xiaqing. Clicking on it, she saw a photo of Song Tiancheng carrying her unconscious body into a car. The photo, accompanied by a provocative headline, attempted to create some kind of ambiguous relationship.
Lin Yunzheng's mood was like a roller coaster, from shock to confusion, to anxiety. All kinds of emotions intertwined together made her feel unprecedented pressure.
"Look at this. If Huo Chenyuan saw this news, would he misunderstand you?" Tang Xiaqing asked, "Where are you now? Can you come to my house? Or tell me the address and I'll come with you. No matter what, I will stand by you."
"I collapsed at dusk this evening and a friend took me to the InterContinental Hotel."
"Are you alone in the hotel now?"
"Yes, I'm alone." Lin Yunzheng responded.
"We'll come to pick you up right away. You can stay at my house, okay?" Tang Xiaqing's words conveyed warmth and concern through the phone. With a confirmatory response, she and her husband immediately set out on the road to where Lin Yunzheng was.
The atmosphere in the car was warm because of the upcoming reunion with good friends.
"You sit in the front. You've been tired these past few days and are prone to motion sickness. After I became pregnant, I always sat in the back. It's more spacious."
Considering that Lin Yunzheng might get carsick, Tang Xiaqing carefully suggested that she sit in the passenger seat and thoughtfully prepared some mints and water.
However, as Lin Yunzheng settled into the passenger seat and sorted her clothes, her eyes accidentally swept across the interior of the car. It was this glimpse that made her discover a gleaming earring in the gap between the seats.
The earrings were small and delicate, yet seemed out of place - because she clearly remembered that her best friend Tang Xiaqing had never had her ears pierced, so naturally she would not wear this kind of jewelry.
The moment she discovered the earrings, Lin Yunzheng's heart skipped a beat.
She knew that this at least meant that in addition to Tang Xiaqing, there were other ladies who had recently used the passenger seat.
This should have been a trivial matter, but she recalled seeing her husband's ex-girlfriend drunk on Tang Xiaqing's wedding day. She had described her husband as a heartless, unfaithful man who was always looking for someone else. That incident was like a thorn in her heart, vaguely evoking her worries.
However, Lin Yunzheng quickly adjusted her thoughts and tried to calm herself down.
She reminded herself that there were too many coincidences in this world, and this earring could have been the result of an accidental event, such as a work partner or distant relative of Tang Xiaqing temporarily borrowing the car.
After thinking for a while, Lin Yunzheng remained silent, turned his head to look out the window, and the fluctuations in his heart gradually subsided, turning into a deep calm.
Half an hour later, Lin Yunzheng stepped into Tang Xiaqing's new home, her eyes full of disbelief.
I originally thought that they would be busy looking for a house to rent, but the scene before my eyes is completely different - a spacious and bright large flat, decorated in a warm and tasteful way, with every detail revealing the quality and comfort of life.
This was in stark contrast to the difficult situation Tang Xiaqing had described before, making it difficult for her to digest for a while.
After settling in, Tang Xiaqing's husband went to sleep in the master bedroom first, and Tang Xiaqing and Lin Yunzheng chatted for a while in the study.
"What's going on? I remember you said that because your parents oppose your marriage, we can only rent a house outside." Lin Yunzheng asked softly.
Tang Xiaqing smiled slightly, a touch of tenderness and gratitude flashing in her eyes. "Actually, my parents saw our perseverance and determination, especially after they saw I was pregnant. They couldn't bear it, so they decided to help us and bought this house, hoping that we could live a good life."
When Tang Xiaqing mentioned her husband, a man who came from a poor family but was determined to change his fate, she couldn't help but feel fond of him. "He's really ambitious, and he's also very gentle to me."
Although Lin Yunzheng still had concerns about Tang Xiaqing's marriage, when she saw the happy glow on her best friend's face and her growing belly, which symbolized the birth of a new life, her uneasiness was gradually replaced by understanding and acceptance.
Lin Yunzheng turned to face Tang Xiaqing, her eyes gleaming with sincerity. "I hope your future will be as bright and warm as this large apartment. May you and your family of three always be happy and healthy."
"If there's anything you need my help with, remember to tell me anytime." Lin Yunzheng swallowed the words back. She hoped in her heart that Tang Xiaqing would be happy forever.
"It's late, go to bed early." After Tang Xiaqing finished chatting with Lin Yunzheng, he took her to the guest bedroom and turned on the warm light.
