Flash Marriage with Dr. Huo
Chapter 9 Doctor Huo comes to visit the ward
As night fell, after get off work, Lin Yunzheng walked into the ward carrying the fruits she had bought and called softly, "Mom, I'm here to see you." Her mother Chen Xueli, who was lying on the hospital bed, smiled slightly, her eyes full of love.
"Daughter, thank you for your hard work." Chen Xueli's voice was weak but full of relief.
During the chat, mother Chen Xueli changed the subject: "I want to see you get married before I leave." There was earnest anticipation in the mother's words, but also a hint of worry.
"Mom, the doctor said your condition is stable now, so don't worry about this." Lin Yunzheng comforted.
"Who was that Doctor Huo who brought you here yesterday? He also arranged a high-class ward for me?"
Lin Yunzheng told her mother everything about saving Old Mrs. Huo.
"I think this Doctor Huo is quite good, very handsome. Would you really consider him?"
"Mom, they're a wealthy family with assets worth hundreds of millions. He's the second son, and the eldest son is the CEO of a group. Do you think there's a huge gap between their financial situation and ours?"
Chen Xueli nodded thoughtfully, thinking of Lin Yunzheng's biological father.
"Your father is also from a wealthy family. Back then, his family strongly opposed us. Your father told me not to worry, saying he could handle it, but unfortunately, the result was still very regrettable. Now, will Huo Chenyuan's parents object?"
A complex emotion flashed in Chen Xueli's eyes, and her words revealed deep helplessness.
Lin Yunzheng also understood that marriage is often not just a matter between two people, but also a combination of the interests of two families.
"Mom, you kept my father's identity a secret when I was a child. Now that I've graduated and have a job, you can finally tell me."
Chen Xueli was silent for a moment, then said, "Your father's name is Lin Tingzhou. He was a high-ranking official in Province N at the time. However, when you were sick as a child and I asked him to borrow medical expenses, he only gave me a few hundred yuan and sent me away. He was unwilling to come visit you."
Lin Yunzheng listened quietly to her mother's words, with ripples in her heart.
The father was financially well-off, but he had almost always ignored her and her.
Chen Xueli's voice was slightly choked with sobs, but her tone was more of relief. "I was young then. After I became pregnant, I insisted on giving birth to you, thinking that his family would accept us and take responsibility for us. But reality is often much more cruel than we imagine. In his eyes, career, family, and family were probably far more important than love."
Lin Yunzheng was silent for a long time, and the picture in his mind became clearer from blurry.
"Mom, I know this isn't easy. Huo Chenyuan said his grandmother wants me to be her granddaughter-in-law, but I didn't agree." Lin Yunzheng expressed her concerns.
Chen Xueli nodded. "I originally thought Xiao Shen was okay, but now I think it's better to forget it. He's already fickle before getting married, and it might not be good for him in the future. You should make your own decision. Be cautious and don't follow my old path."
At this time, Huo Chenyuan walked into the ward. He looked particularly handsome and tall in his white coat.
"Aunt, I talked to the nurse today, and all your indicators show signs of improvement." Huo Chenyuan said, closing the medical record report in his hand.
"Thank you, Dr. Huo." Chen Xueli was very grateful.
"You're welcome, auntie. You can contact us anytime if you need anything."
Then, Huo Chenyuan turned around and asked Lin Yunzheng: "Are you going home now? I just got off work and I can give you a ride."
"Okay, then I'll go with you. Thank you." Lin Yunzheng felt warm in her heart.
Lin Yunzheng said goodbye to her mother and walked out of the ward.
"I'll go to the duty room to change clothes first." Huo Chenyuan said, taking Lin Yunzheng into the doctor's duty room not far away.
A few minutes later, when Huo Chenyuan appeared again, he had taken off his white coat and changed into casual clothes - a fitted blue shirt and black trousers, simple yet tasteful, perfectly showing off his slender figure.
The two walked out of the hospital side by side, the night breeze blowing on their faces, bringing a hint of coolness.
"Please don't worry about the cost of VIP ward stay, aunt. My grandmother has told me that my family will cover it all. Please don't refuse." Huo Chenyuan directly addressed the issue of medical expenses.
"Thank you!" Lin Yunzheng was very grateful in her heart and seemed to have a thousand words to say, but she didn't know what else to say for a moment.
Huo Chenyuan came to the front of the car, opened the door, and politely asked Lin Yunzheng to take a seat. Then he walked around to the driver's seat and started the car.
Soft music was playing in the car, and the atmosphere was warm and peaceful.
"I'm a little hungry and want to have a bowl of noodles. Do you want to come with me?" Huo Chenyuan asked her.
"Okay." Lin Yunzheng just remembered that she rushed to the hospital to visit her mother after get off work and had not had dinner yet.
Huo Chenyuan drove out of the bustling street and turned into a quiet alley.
After stopping, he turned to look at Lin Yunzheng with a smile in his eyes: "Come with me, there is a place I want to show you."
Lin Yunzheng nodded curiously and followed him out of the car.
After passing through the narrow alley, the two came to the door of an inconspicuous noodle shop.
Although the shop is small, it is extremely clean and tidy. The wooden sign is engraved with the words "Lao Li's Noodles", which reveals the flavor of time.
As the door opened, a rich aroma of noodles wafted into his nose. The owner, Lao Li, was busy kneading dough. He looked up and saw Huo Chenyuan, and a bright smile broke out on his face: "Master Huo is here, welcome."
Huo Chenyuan responded with a smile: "Yeah, still the same as always, beef noodles."
"What about this lady?" asked the noodle shop owner.
"Take a look at the menu. What would you like to eat?" Huo Chenyuan pointed to the menu on the wall and asked Lin Yunzheng to look at it.
It was Lin Yunzheng's first time eating here, and she wasn't sure which noodles tasted best, so she said, "I'll just do the same as you."
Old Li said cheerfully, "Okay, you two will wait a moment."
After a while, two bowls of steaming beef noodles were served.
At the dining table, Huo Chenyuan picked up his chopsticks and ate every bite with relish, as if even the simple noodles had become a work of art in his hands.
Lin Yunzheng couldn't help but watch intently, secretly praising in her heart that eating could be so enjoyable.
Lin Yunzheng looked at the steaming beef noodles in front of her, and her heart was filled with ripples.
She originally thought that a rich young man like Huo Chenyuan must have an extremely luxurious diet on weekdays, enjoying exquisite delicacies in high-end restaurants for every meal.
At this moment, this simple yet down-to-earth food made her feel novel and familiar.
Huo Chenyuan seemed to have guessed what Lin Yunzheng was thinking: "You didn't expect that I would like a small street noodle shop like this."
His words revealed a life attitude of being indifferent to fame and fortune, which gave Lin Yunzheng a deeper understanding of him.
"Do you like the worldly atmosphere here?" Lin Yunzheng asked.
"Yes, sometimes, a simple bowl of noodles, accompanied by a warm atmosphere, is far better than delicacies from land and sea." Huo Chenyuan continued, his tone filled with love and cherishment for life.
Lin Yunzheng was fascinated by what she heard. She found that the person in front of her was not as unreachable as his appearance suggested. Instead, he had a heart that was close to that of ordinary people.
At this moment, Lin Yunzheng's heart was filled with unprecedented peace.
When Huo Chenyuan was about to pay the bill, the noodle shop owner asked seriously, "Master Huo, is this beautiful lady your girlfriend? This is the first time you've brought a girl to eat noodles here."
Hearing this question, Huo Chenyuan showed a relaxed and natural smile: "Not yet."
Lin Yunzheng stood beside Huo Chenyuan, with ripples in her heart.
"Why does he call you Young Master Huo? Instead of Mr. Huo or Doctor Huo?" Lin Yunzheng asked him after getting in the car.
"He used to be a chef at my grandmother's house. I grew up eating the meals he cooked. He was like a family member to us."
"Do you eat here often?"
"Yes."
She had originally imagined that Huo Chenyuan, as a young talent from a prominent family, should have no shortage of suitors and might even have had several relationships.
However, the seemingly casual conversation between Huo Chenyuan and the noodle shop owner overturned all her previous guesses.
Lin Yunzheng felt that Huo Chenyuan's attitude towards love was not like that of ordinary rich young men. He was extremely cautious in choosing a partner.
She began to re-examine the man in front of her.
She increasingly felt that Huo Chenyuan's world was far broader and deeper than what appeared on the surface.
After eating the noodles, Huo Chenyuan drove Lin Yunzheng back to her community.
Along the way, Huo Chenyuan focused on driving and remained silent.
After arriving at the destination, Huo Chenyuan simply said "good night" and left, without mentioning any intention of going upstairs to see her off.
Although Huo Chenyuan's actions were gentlemanly, they also made Lin Yunzheng vaguely feel an indescribable sense of alienation.
She couldn't help but wonder, if it weren't for the existence of Old Mrs. Huo, would Huo Chenyuan still treat her so considerately?
Lin Yunzheng watched Huo Chenyuan leave and felt his caution and restraint in his personal emotions.
