Mrs. Huo was naturally very satisfied with this marriage arrangent, but whenever she thought of her unfilial grandson, she could not help but sigh deeply.
At this mont, Chu Tingting hastily confessed, "Grandma Huo, I really love Yan Ting. I’ll never marry anyone but him in this lifeti. I’ve loved him for so many years. Please, won’t you make this happen for us?"
"Tingting, of course Grandma likes you very much, but... alas, it’s truly shaful to say. My Yan Ting has been tangled up with a woman lately. I don’t know what tricks that woman has used, but my Yan Ting can’t stop thinking about her. It’s really embarrassing." Mrs. Huo wore an expression of deep anguish and frustration.
All the mbers of the Chu Family turned visibly grim.
Chu Tingting hung her head low, tears starting to well up. She looked utterly heartbroken and wronged, appearing delicate and pitiful.
"It’s understandable for a man to get involved with a few won before marriage," Li Ruyue said imdiately, adopting a magnanimous tone.
Old Mrs. Chu nodded in agreent, "Exactly, n are drawn to novelty. We’ve been through it ourselves; we won’t mind."
Mrs. Huo, being an exceedingly shrewd person, instantly grasped the underlying aning.
"How about this—stay for dinner tonight. I’ll have Yan Ting co back and spend so ti with Tingting."
Upon hearing this, Chu Tingting’s face lit up with happiness.
With Mrs. Huo backing her, she felt that her chances of success had already doubled.
Night fell!
Lin Banxia was receiving ticulous care at the hospital. She knew full well that all of it had been arranged by Huo Yanting behind the scenes.
But thinking about how she had completely fallen out with the Huo Family this ti, she felt her future was bleak and uncertain.
Suddenly, the door to the hospital room swung open, and a tall, slender figure stepped inside.
"Banxia... what happened to you?" It was Huo Qinglin.
He had actually co to visit her at the hospital, holding a large bouquet of red roses and an exquisite fruit basket.
Lin Banxia turned her head and saw it was him. Her delicate face imdiately turned cold. "What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at ?"
"Why speak so harshly? If I really ca to laugh at you, I wouldn’t have bought these flowers and fruit." Huo Qinglin revealed what he believed to be his most charming smile.
"I don’t need you checking up on . Just leave!" Lin Banxia showed him no courtesy and directly told him off.
Huo Qinglin’s gaze scanned her from head to toe. She had injuries on her body, but her beautiful face remained unscathed.
"I ca to apologize!" He sat down on the edge of her hospital bed with what seed like genuine sincerity.
Lin Banxia felt instant disgust, goosebumps rising on her skin. She sneered mockingly, "Apologize? I don’t need it!"
"It’s all my fault. I couldn’t convince my mother and sister. No matter what they’ve done to you, I’m here today to make ands, alright?" Huo Qinglin’s tone softened, his eyes filled with tenderness, as if he were impossible to refuse.
Lin Banxia was no longer the naïve fool she once was. Seeing his ticulously crafted facade, she felt nothing but revulsion.
"Huo Qinglin, save your effort. Don’t think you’re the only person in the world who can act. Stop pretending to be so affectionate. Your mother and sister assaulted —I will rember this." Lin Banxia said coldly, her voice lined with contempt.
"Banxia, we were in love for at least half a year. Why have you suddenly beco so heartless toward ?" Huo Qinglin imdiately put on a wounded expression.
