Chapter 103 The divorce proceedings need to be expedited.
"How about it?"
The village committee reception room, on the second floor.
The group watched nervously in the corridor, while Horstley rushed over to ask questions as soon as the doctor arrived.
The middle-aged female doctor's expression was acceptable, her tone was neither humble nor arrogant, and her voice was calm and reassuring. "Mrs. Huo is fine. Mr. Huo, Mrs. Huo fainted because she was overly frightened and nervous, as well as tired. It was not caused by any pathological reason."
"However, I still suggest changing Mrs. Huo into clean clothes and washing her body with warm water, especially her face, hands, and feet. This will help Mrs. Huo relax and wake up faster. Also, Mrs. Huo's wrists..."
At this point, the doctor noticed that there was a large group of people outside looking in their direction.
He Xu, who was standing closest to the door, quickly thanked the villagers outside again, saying that Jiang Qin needed a quiet environment to rest and asked everyone to leave first. After saying that, he closed the door and went outside himself.
Huo Sili clearly noticed that the doctor's pause was deliberate. The man strode inside and came to the bedside.
He bent down and gently took Jiang Qin's hand, then his eyes darkened when he saw the obvious abrasion on Jiang Qin's wrist.
"Did you bring the ointment for treating abrasions?" Horstley asked the doctor.
The doctor nodded: "Yes, Mr. Huo. I was just wondering if Mrs. Huo has any history of allergies? Because I wasn't sure if Mrs. Huo had any allergies, I brought several medications with similar effects, including traditional Chinese medicine..."
Huo Sili frowned slightly, his nose briefly catching the scent of the herbal ointment Jiang Qin had applied to her wrist to promote scab formation.
He said almost immediately, "Her skin is quite sensitive, so we need the kind made with Chinese herbal medicine, which has almost no side effects."
"Okay, I understand." The doctor quickly opened the medical kit, took out ointment for treating abrasions and a pack of medical cotton swabs, and responsibly explained them to Huo Sili.
"This takes a little longer to work, but it's suitable for Mrs. Huo's situation. It's gentle and has few side effects. Pregnant women and infants can use it too. However, for Mrs. Huo's case, a pea-sized amount is enough, three times a day. Don't use more."
Upon hearing a certain keyword, Huo Sili raised an eyebrow slightly, then quickly took the answer and replied with a "okay."
The doctor glanced at Jiang Qin on the hospital bed, then exchanged a look with the two female doctors who had just come in.
One of the doctors had a strange expression on his face, as if he wanted to say something, but after a pause, he gently shook his head at the doctor who had just been talking to Horstley.
The female doctor received a signal from her colleague and said to Huo Sili, "Then, Mr. Huo, we'll go to the rest room that the village committee arranged for us to rest first. I'm also on night shift tonight. If you need anything, please call me anytime and I'll come right away."
Huo Sili had already unscrewed the cap of the ointment and was using a cotton swab to scrape off a pea-sized amount of cream, preparing to apply the medicine to Jiang Qin.
Hearing this, he gave a faint "hmm," his gaze already fixed on Jiang Qin's hand.
The three doctors didn't lock the door again; they quickly and quietly opened it and left, then carefully closed it behind them.
Anyone could see that Mr. Huo cared a lot about his wife.
However, after they went outside, the doctor who had been about to speak almost couldn't hold back. Fortunately, He Xu's height and build were indeed eye-catching, so he swallowed back what he wanted to say.
The three of them told He Xu about the situation inside. He Xu was relieved and quickly thanked them. The three of them then walked to the large rest room that the village committee had arranged for them to rest in.
The door was closed tightly, and the three of them went inside. The doctor who had wanted to speak earlier couldn't help but whisper.
"You really couldn't tell? Mrs. Huo, when I felt her pulse, it seemed like she was pregnant."
"Shh." Another doctor, who had been barely noticeable in the room, quickly interrupted the other person with a whisper.
As he spoke, he glanced around, his entire being exuding caution. "How old are you? You can't just say things like that!"
The doctor opened and closed his mouth repeatedly, struggling with the decision, but ultimately chose to remain silent.
Indeed, what are their identities, and what is the identity of that Mr. Huo from earlier?
They're the kind of people even TV stations can't get to come!
Sometimes, when we hold meetings, those meetings are all officially held at the United Nations conference table!
Moreover, the Huo family, which is in charge of this CEO Huo, is now firmly ranked first in Kyoto, a city full of elite families!
When other people's children are born, they are truly inheriting the "throne," so if you really care about your children...
Taking your pulse every 24 hours is no problem at all!
So use your brain, if Mrs. Huo is really pregnant, then Mr. Huo would definitely be the first to know!
On the contrary, if Mrs. Huo is pregnant, Mr. Huo will not know.
That just proves that Mr. Huo doesn't want the child now!
If she had just said that Mrs. Huo was unconscious, then...
What consequences would that have?
Besides, his wife fainted, and he didn't even ask about the baby's condition, which strongly suggests that Mr. Huo really didn't know about Mrs. Huo's pregnancy. That further demonstrates that he doesn't care about the baby.
This is a family matter that no one can easily resolve. She's just an ordinary doctor; what right does she have to get involved?
So, to be on the safe side, it's best to keep quiet. After all, putting aside her identity as a doctor, she's just an ordinary citizen.
If you get caught up in the fire of a wealthy family, you might die without even knowing how you died!
……
Coo coo, coo coo.
Jiang Qin woke up hungry, so hungry that her stomach felt empty and even a little painful. When she woke up to an unfamiliar environment and realized that she was in bed, she was startled and opened her eyes wide. She instinctively propped herself up and sat up.
Then I felt dizzy and had a headache, probably a short-term aftereffect of the lack of oxygen in the truck.
And what followed was a sharp, stinging pain in my hand, like being pricked with needles.
Jiang Qin subconsciously raised her hand to see what was wrong.
Then he noticed a familiar person sitting on a low stool, asleep by the bed.
Jiang Qin was stunned for a moment.
"Hosley?"
She let out a soft cry, feeling a strong sense of relief at having survived a disaster.
But for a moment, she found it hard to believe.
So, did the trucks slow down because they were driving into a densely populated area?
Is this really a sign that she's about to be rescued?
The expectations at the time turned out to be real, and not just her expectations.
Realizing this, Jiang Qin felt an indescribable mix of emotions.
She shifted her gaze back to Horst, watching him quietly sleeping on his side by the bed for a long while.
But when she reached out to touch his hand, which was in mid-air, she suddenly stopped.
No, that's not right.
If it weren't for him, would she have ended up like this?
In the truck, to conserve her strength and energy, she stopped thinking about who was trying to do this to her.
But at this moment, Jiang Qin had an answer in her heart.
As soon as the answer came out, Jiang Qin withdrew her hand.
The struggle between brothers in wealthy families, turning against each other, has played out countless times throughout history.
But seeing is believing, and experiencing is even better.
Huo Sili opened his eyes at that moment, and his first reaction was to look at Jiang Qin on the bed.
Then, his gaze fell into Jiang Qin's dark eyes, which held a wealth of emotions.
Huo Sili pursed his thin lips, then opened them, pretending not to see her eyes filled with complex emotions.
"When did you wake up? Are you hungry?" His voice was very gentle.
As he spoke, he quickly stood up from the low stool, took out his phone, and checked the time.
“It’s already one in the morning, those people should all be asleep. I’m going downstairs to the kitchen to make something to eat. You stay here and don’t wander around. He Xu is guarding outside. It’s safe here, don’t be afraid.”
Jiang Qin was really hungry at the moment, so she didn't say anything else but quickly nodded and hummed in agreement.
But what she really wanted to do was to stop living like that.
She used to think that she only had to worry about Horst finding out about her pregnancy, but now she realized that she was so wrong.
She had only scratched the surface of life in a wealthy family before, but now, this was just the beginning.
However, such an overly exciting and thrilling life was clearly not what she wanted.
It seems the divorce process needs to be expedited.
Fortunately, this time it was alright, but...
The door closed, and Huo Sili left. Jiang Qin raised her hand and saw the wound area glowing with moisture, and smelled the herbal scent on her skin.
There was a tube of ointment on the bedside table. Jiang Qin picked it up, glanced at it to make sure it was safe for pregnant women and infants, and put it down.
Fortunately, it was just a few scratches.
Although it hurts a lot now, the abrasion is nothing serious.
So tomorrow, Wednesday, my plan to submit my visa application at the embassy will not be delayed.
Jiang Qin really didn't expect this.
Sometimes fate just loves to play tricks.
The steaming hot noodles were prepared by Horstley, who then personally served them to them.
As Jiang Qin was eating her noodles, she suddenly heard Huo Sili speak.
"You'll have a day off tomorrow. At 3 PM, I'll take you to the security company after my meeting. You can choose a few bodyguards yourself."
The noodles in the bowl suddenly lost their appeal—it was 3 p.m., which was included in her original plan to go to the embassy!
