“Mhm.”

“Oh my god, what happened? Gao Ran just called Xiaowei, she’s scared shitless.”

“Tell your wife that Huo Mian’s fine, she just sustained minor exterior injuries. I’ll tell you guys about it when I see you.”

“Okay then… things are really messed up these days, take care of yourself, alright?”

“I will.”

After hanging up, Su Yu went back to work all the way until 2 AM.

He slowly got up, stretched, and walked towards Huo Mian’s room; he looked at the woman fast asleep on the bed, feeling as happy as could be.

Su Yu was happy, as long as he could quietly be there for Huo Mian; sometimes he wished that Qin Chu would never come back. That way, he would have an excuse to take care of her forever.

But… he also knew how much Huo Mian loved Qin Chu. If he really never came back, she would be sad for the rest of her life…

Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, Su Yu hoped that Qin Chu could come back.

But he also wished that time could pass slower… That way, he would be able to make more memories with Huo Mian.

“Sleep tight… my darling girl,” Su Yu said gently as he looked at Huo Mian. Then, he turned around and walked out of her room, slowly closing the door behind him.

– 6 AM –

Huo Mian was discharged from the army hospital and secretly taken home by Su Yu.

The doctors at the hospital would pay house visits for Huo Mian’s future checkups – after what happened, no one in the Su Family was going to easily let Huo Mian out of their sight.

At noon, while Huo Mian was napping, Mrs. Su secretively pulled her son aside.

“What’s up, Mom, why are you being so mysterious?”

“Huo Mian’s been craving spicy food, and the doctor said it’s fine for her to have some. You’re always eating out, do you know where we can buy some hot and sour noodles?”

“Hot and sour noodles?” Su Yu repeated, feeling confused.

“Mhm, when Mian was watching TV this morning, she saw this girl eating hot and sour noodles. It seemed like she really wanted to have some as well.”

“I’m surprised you could tell…” Su Yu was at a loss for words.

“Of course I can, I wanted to eat sour and spicy foods when I was pregnant with you too… anyways, can you buy some or not?”

“Um… it shouldn’t be a problem.”

“Hurry up and go to work then, remember to bring some home tonight.”

“Mhm… I will.”

After Su Yu left home, he drove straight to Imperial Star.

“President Su…” An walked into his office after knocking.

“What’s the Huo Corporation being doing lately?” Su Yu asked.

“Ni Yang’s manager jumped to the Huo Corporation and took with her a bunch of celebrities…”

“Oh? Did something happen between her and Ni Yang?”

“Mhm… I think so. I didn’t hear any news of Ni Yang ending his contract with GK, but there’s practically no one left. The company’s like a pool of dead water these days, ever since it was taken over by the U.S. headquarters. Ni Yang’s really talented, so a bunch of agencies has been trying to get him on board, but he didn’t respond to any of them. I’m guessing that’s the cause of the fallout between him and his manager.”

“I think it’s because of Huo Mian… Ni Yang and Huo Mian are really close,” Su Yu slowly began to analyze.

“That’s probable… The Huo Corporation is at its pinnacle state of prosperity right now. Yingzi is a really good manager who’s good at sculpturing superstars. I heard she has plans to cultivate some of the best actresses and actors. They’re picking from trainees, and apparently, the selection process is really meticulous.”

“Let them be… I’m too busy to deal with that piece of crap Huo Siqian and his company.”

“Should we plan something?” An asked.
