"Xiaohu, where are you going?" Soong Shiyan was sitting on the sofa, watching the news of Yan Duoya's death on the TV. When she looked up, she saw Xiaohu dressed neatly as if he was about to leave the house, so she asked curiously.
Hearing Soong Shiyan calling him, Xiaohu turned around and looked at her. With a worried expression, he said, "Ms Soong, I'll go find Mr Mingshen."
Hearing that, Soong Shiyan couldn't help but frown. She stood up from the sofa, walked to Xiaohu and asked, "Xiaohu, why are you looking for him? Have you forgotten what your sister told you before? "
"Yes, Ms Soong told me not to look for Mr Mingshen in the future, otherwise I would be in danger." Xiaohu looked at Soong Shiyan and said with his head lowered.
"Xiaohu, think about it carefully. Is this what your sister told you?" Soong Shiyan shook her head helplessly as she looked at Xiaohu and said.
Xiaohu thought for a moment and continued, "Well, Ms Soong, you're right. You can't go out alone in the future. If I want to go out, I have to talk to Ms Soong or my brothers."
"If that's the case, then why are you still thinking of sneaking out? Say it yourself. If you are in danger, what will you do? " Soong Shiyan squatted down, rubbed Xiaohu's head and said softly.
"Mr Mingshen is sick, I want to see him--I want to talk to you about it, and I also want you to go out with me, but Ms Soong doesn't like Mr Mingshen right now, I'm worried that you won't let me go see him after I tell you about this."
"How could that be? "Since you are going to see him, Ms Soong will send a few bodyguards to go with you — this way, sister can feel more at ease." Soong Shiyan said.
"But …" Xiaohu looked at Soong Shiyan and said hesitantly.
"But what?" Soong Shiyan saw that Xiaohu wanted to say something but hesitated and asked in puzzlement, "Xiaohu, what do you want to say? Just say it, don't hesitate to say it."
"But, I hope you can come with me to see Mr Mingshen — — I heard from Mr Mingshen's bodyguard that Mr Mingshen was sick because he saved you in the water last time. Furthermore, Mr Mingshen's dad passed away, so he didn't have a good rest these two days. That's why he got worse. "
Soong Shiyan couldn't help but sigh when she heard this. In the end, she was still the culprit. Soong Shiyan really hoped that he wouldn't be disappointed when she saw his awkward expression. When she thought about how Huo Mingshen was sick because of her, Soong Shiyan felt guilty. Therefore, she hesitated for a moment before saying to Xiaohu, "Since that's the case, then sister will go with you. You can sit here and wait for me. I'll go and change my clothes."
"Yeah, Ms Soong, you have to be faster!" Soong Shiyan nodded and turned to head upstairs.
Looking at Soong Shiyan's back, Xiaohu took out his cell phone from his backpack and dialed Huo Mingshen's number. With a satisfied expression, he said, "Mr Mingshen, Ms Soong and I have agreed that we will come together to see you — hurry and get ready!"
… ….
Huo Mingshen was lying on the bed with a tired look on his face. He did look a bit haggard.
Seeing him in this state, it was impossible for Soong Shiyan to not feel guilty as she stood in the doorway.
"Cough, cough, cough — —" Huo Mingshen coughed a few times and his face immediately turned pale.
"Mr Mingshen — —" Seeing this, Xiaohu hurriedly ran over and stood beside the bed with his back facing Soong Shiyan. He winked at Huo Mingshen. "Are you okay?"
Huo Mingshen also secretly gave Xiaohu a thumbs up. Then, he replied weakly, "Not bad, just a little dizzy. It's a pity that you came to see me today, but I can't accompany you out to play …"
Hearing Huo Mingshen's slightly hoarse voice, Soong Shiyan felt a burst of guilt in her heart. She hesitated on the spot for a moment, then she braced herself and walked in.
"Jing Sung? "Why are you here?" Huo Mingshen looked at Soong Shiyan in surprise, as if he didn't know she would appear here.
"I heard from Xiaohu that you were sick, so I came to take a look." Soong Shiyan said leisurely as she walked to a sofa and sat down. She suddenly felt that this statement seemed a bit inappropriate. So, it seemed like she cared a lot about him, so she added, "I was worried about Xiaohu coming to your place alone, so I sent him over. I also came over to see if you were dead."
Soong Shiyan's words did hurt his heart, but Huo Mingshen understood her personality. He didn't seem to be angry at all, instead, the smile on his face became even more pronounced.
"I'm already very happy that you can come …" Huo Mingshen looked at Soong Shiyan and said sincerely.
"Cough, cough," Soong Shiyan coughed lightly a little, and then changed the topic, "When I came in, I saw that there was no one else in the house besides your bodyguard — you are sick now, and you don't even have someone to take care of you. If the old man knew, I don't know how much he would have felt!"
Huo Mingshen was naturally not so stupid as to tell Soong Shiyan that he found an excuse to spend all the servants in the house an hour ago.
"I don't know why, but in the past two days, more or less all the servants had matters to attend to at home and requested leave from me." Huo Mingshen sighed and said faintly, "The servants in the house have all left. No one would believe it even if word spread out. I haven't had a sip of hot porridge for the past two days."
Soong Shiyan didn't know why, but she felt upset as she looked at Huo Mingshen's miserable state.
"Ms Soong, don't you know how to cook? "Mr Mingshen hasn't eaten for two days, I just happen to feel a little hungry too — — Ms Soong, can you cook for Mr Mingshen and me?" Xiaohu looked at Soong Shiyan with a face full of anticipation, "The last time we had a meal cooked by you was when we were under the Sky Bridge together!"1
Since Xiaohu had already said so, Soong Shiyan naturally couldn't refuse. She looked at Xiaohu and said with a smile, "Since that's the case, then Ms Soong will cook for Xiaohu today!"
"Yay!" Xiaohu shouted excitedly. He took advantage of Soong Shiyan's inattentiveness to wink at Huo Mingshen with a complacent expression.
"But, do you have more dishes at home?" Soong Shiyan turned to Huo Mingshen and asked.
Seeing Soong Shiyan turn around, Huo Mingshen quickly hid his expression and looked at her blankly. "I don't usually step into the kitchen, so I'm not sure if there's more food in the fridge."
"Forget it, I'll go to your kitchen to have a look – if there's no food in the fridge, I think I'll have to go out and buy some from the supermarket nearby." With that, Soong Shiyan stood up and prepared to go to the kitchen.
Hearing this, Huo Mingshen hurriedly gave Xiaohu a wink. Xiaohu immediately understood what he meant. He quickly walked up to Soong Shiyan and said, "Ms Soong, let me take a look!" With that, he didn't wait for Soong Shiyan's reply and stepped out of the room ahead of her.
Seeing this, Soong Shiyan could only let Xiaohu go. She stood on the spot and looked at Xiaohu's back before worriedly shouting, "Xiaohu, slow down. Don't fall down!" With that, she walked back to the sofa and sat down.
Without Xiaohu, Soong Shiyan and Huo Mingshen just sat in the room. The atmosphere was a bit awkward.
"I …" After hesitating for a while, Huo Mingshen finally decided to speak. However, before he could say anything, Xiaohu came back.
"Ms Soong, Mr Mingshen's refrigerator is empty. There's nothing inside!" Xiaohu stood at the door, looking at Soong Shiyan as he spoke.
Soong Shiyan felt awkward, so she stood up from the sofa without hesitation and said, "Since that's the case, I'll go out and buy some food. The two of you can stay at home and wait for me."
"Jing Sung, I'll send you there!" Huo Mingshen said seeing that he couldn't afford to lose the opportunity.
"No — you're not feeling well, are you? Then stay at home." Soong Shiyan tactfully refused.
"It's all right, I'm a lot better now — and it's because I'm sick that I should go out and get some fresh air. Xiaohu, what do you think? " Saying that, Huo Mingshen turned around and looked at Xiaohu.
Xiaohu was naturally on Huo Mingshen's side. Hearing Wu Tie's words, he nodded his head and said to Soong Shiyan, "Ms Soong, Mr Mingshen is right. Just let him go with you!"
Seeing Xiaohu speak up for Huo Mingshen, Soong Shiyan could only nod and say to Huo Mingshen, "Since that's the case, why don't you come with us?"
