Chapter 284 Yun Mu Scared

The phone on the other end was quickly answered, and Yun Mu's sweet voice came through, "Who is it?"

Yun Mu hadn't saved Wen Yi's number.

Huo Tingying tugged at his pale lips, his voice hoarse, "Yun Mu, it's me."

On the other side, Yun Mu glanced at the caller ID, recognizing the abnormality in his voice and asked anxiously, "What's wrong? Why does your voice sound so weak? Whose phone is this?"

Huo Tingying heard the girl's concern and urgency, and a faint smile curved his lips as he called out, "Yun Mu..."

Then the last bit of willpower he had finally gave out, and he felt dizzy before collapsing onto the steering wheel.

In that moment of losing consciousness, he heard Yun Mu's anxious calls through the phone, "Huo Tingying! Huo Tingying, say something!"

Wen Yi grabbed Huo Tingying's body and held up the phone, shouting to Yun Mu, "Your husband has been in a car accident! I'm taking him to the hospital; you come over quickly!"

Another car accident?

Yet another car accident?

Yun Mu rushed to the hospital, where Huo Tingying had already been moved to a regular ward and was now unconscious.

"Lu Nansen, how is he? How could he have been in a car accident?"

Lu Nansen looked at her with a complicated expression, wanting to tell her about Huo Tingying's true condition but finding it hard to speak.

Yun Mu grew impatient, "How is he really? Tell me!"

Lu Nansen, "He's fine, just suffered a severe impact and some minor abrasions. He'll wake up soon."

At this point, Wen Yi interjected, "How can he be fine? There was so much blood on his face!"

Lu Nansen glanced at her, "His nose was bleeding from the impact."

Wen Yi, "Is... is that all?"

"What else?" Lu Nansen worried that if he continued, Yun Mu might see through the lie, so he quickly found an excuse to leave.

Yun Mu stood by the bedside, looking at the unconscious Huo Tingying, her eyes filled with pain.

She hadn't noticed before, but now she realized that he seemed to have lost weight and looked so pale.

Wen Yi entered, snorting coldly, "Now you feel sorry for him? When you were on the street helping another man, did you think of your husband then?"

Yun Mu seemed to notice Wen Yi only now, and she looked at her, "Was it you who called the ambulance? Thank you."

Wen Yi had expected her to retort, but instead, Yun Mu thanked her, making her even more furious.

"You're really ridiculous, saving someone on the street while your own husband almost died! Do you know how serious the scene was? If not for the truck driver turning around, you would be seeing him in the mortuary now!"

Yun Mu's eyes turned cold, "Miss Wen, do you have no respect for the dead?"

"Do you have any respect? A married woman publicly cuddling with another man..."

Yun Mu couldn't take it anymore.

"Are your eyes crooked? What do you mean by cuddling with another man? Three lives were in danger on the road, and as a doctor, it's my duty to help! Yun Mu and Si Nanjue just happened to be passing by and helped save them. Why does it sound like we were having an affair in your mouth?"

Wen Yi knew Yun Mu was telling the truth, but she couldn't help feeling angry.

"But do you know how it feels for Huo Tingying to see that? Do you know he drove recklessly after seeing you, as if his life didn't matter? If not for his luck this time..."

Wen Yi didn't continue.

Yun Mu was stunned, "Are you saying he crashed because he saw me and Si Nanjue saving people?"

Wen Yi didn't answer, only spat, "Yun Mu, you don't deserve him with your two-timing ways!"

With that, she turned and left the ward.

As she opened the door, she saw Yunzhe standing outside and left with a sneer.

Yun Mu sat by the bed, holding Huo Tingying's hand, feeling both heartache and exasperation.

Finally, she sighed helplessly and kissed his hand tenderly.

She had worked hard to save his life, and he couldn't risk it just because of jealousy!

Yunzhe withdrew his gaze, didn't enter, and stood outside for a while before leaving.

Huo Tingying slept deeply until the next morning when he finally opened his eyes.

All he saw was white, and the smell of disinfectant filled the air.

He moved slightly and realized his hand was tightly held. Turning his head slightly, he saw Yun Mu sleeping deeply beside the bed.

Even in her sleep, she didn't dare let go.

Afraid of waking her, Huo Tingying didn't move. He leaned closer to look at her face, noticing her long lashes glistening with tears, making her look particularly pitiful.

Only when she was asleep did she look as docile as a kitten.

Suddenly, Yun Mu stirred and woke up.

"Tingying, you're awake." She sat up straight, looking at him with concern, "Do you feel any discomfort? Tell me."

Huo Tingying reached out to touch her face, shaking his head, "I'm fine now."

Yesterday, I didn't pass out because of the car accident. Now that I've had some sleep and my condition has stabilized, everything is fine.

Yunzhe checked his body and found no abnormalities, except for his excessively pale face.

She clenched her fists and punched his shoulder. "You scared me to death! Do you not care about your life? Nanjue and I just happened to be there and helped the accident victims. If you really don't like me interacting with him, I won't see him anymore. Why did you..."

As Yun Mu spoke, her voice choked up.

Huo Tingying knew she had misunderstood. He lost control yesterday not just because he saw her with Yunzhe, but because...

Enough!

Huo Tingying reached out and pulled her forcefully into his embrace.

The sudden movement aggravated the wound on his shoulder, but he didn't let go; instead, he held her even tighter, as if trying to meld her into his very being.

He pressed his lips to her ear, his voice hoarse. "I was wrong. I won't do it again. Don't cry..."

If she kept crying, he would find it even harder to let her go.

Thinking about what Wen Yi said, if the truck driver hadn't swerved in time, he would have...

What was he thinking at that moment in the car?

She had seen his driving skills; it was impossible that the truck driver could swerve while he didn't react.

Unless...

He never intended to avoid it!

Yun Mu's heart trembled violently, and cold sweat broke out on her back.

She grabbed his hospital gown and lifted her face to stare straight into his eyes. "Huo Tingying, swear to me that you will never do something like this again!"

Huo Tingying was taken aback by her serious expression but nodded in agreement. "Okay, I swear I won't do it again."

"Swear seriously and solemnly!"

Huo Tingying, helpless, raised his hand and repeated the oath seriously.
