Chapter 305: I Don’t Need You Anymore
by 叶微摇Chapter 305: I Don't Need You Anymore
In the hospital.
Yun Mu hurriedly pushed open the door to the ward, but Huo Chun did not follow her in.
The ward was quiet, with only Huo Tingying lying on the bed, still unconscious in his blue and white striped hospital gown.
Yun Mu's steps felt heavy as she slowly approached, lowering her gaze to look at the man on the bed.
That once arrogant and rebellious face was now gaunt and pale, its contours even more cold and harsh.
The man who had been standing before her just a few days ago, bossing her around, now lay here lifelessly, so quiet that it was suffocating.
If not for the instruments showing his vital signs were normal, she would have doubted he would ever wake up.
Yun Mu slowly extended her hand, her trembling fingertips lightly touching his face. His pale face felt icy cold.
The calm demeanor she maintained in front of others vanished instantly, and Yun Mu's eyes began to redden.
"Huo Tingying, what are you doing? Why are you treating yourself like this?"
If she had known this man would be so careless with himself and cause her such anger and sadness, she wouldn't have saved him back then!
Yet, despite these thoughts, tears kept falling uncontrollably.
Seeing him so pale and still on the bed, she felt her heart being torn apart.
At that moment, the door to the ward opened, and Feng Shuo walked in.
Feng Shuo's eyes were red, clearly from crying.
When he saw Yun Mu, he was slightly taken aback. "Young Lady, why are you here?"
Then he remembered the call Huo Chun had made to him earlier and understood that it must have been Huo Chun who brought her here.
But it was better this way; he also believed that Young Master's illness should not be hidden from Young Lady.
Yun Mu quickly wiped away her tears and said, "I divorced him. Just call me by my name."
"In my heart, you will always be my Young Lady," Feng Shuo said with unwavering loyalty.
Yun Mu glanced at him, not delving further into the matter, and asked, "What happened to your master? How did he suddenly collapse?"
How could it be 'sudden'?
Feng Shuo looked at Yun Mu with a complicated expression. Feeling a surge of emotion, he was about to reveal everything.
"Young Lady, actually, Young Master..."
"Cough, cough, cough..."
Suddenly, Huo Tingying started coughing violently on the bed, interrupting Feng Shuo's words.
He then opened his eyes.
Seeing Yun Mu with slightly red eyes standing by his bed, Huo Tingying asked in surprise, "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be on a plane right now?"
Yun Mu locked eyes with him, suppressing the sting in her nose, and asked, "If you hadn't collapsed suddenly, I would indeed be on a plane. Huo Tingying, what are you trying to do?"
Huo Tingying looked at her in bewilderment.
"Huo Chun told me you haven't been sleeping or eating properly lately, just drinking and smoking. Are you trying to kill yourself? Now that you've finally found your true love, shouldn't you be living happily with her? What are you trying to do? Why are you being so careless with yourself?!"
Yun Mu yelled at him, her voice nearly choking with emotion by the end.
Huo Tingying was stunned and dared not meet her eyes.
After a long pause, he said hoarsely, "That's an exaggeration by Huo Chun. I just haven't been resting well due to stress, which is why I fainted."
Yun Mu stared at him. "Really just lack of rest?"
Huo Tingying clenched his palm slightly and nodded. "Yes. I'm sorry for disrupting your travel plans. I'll have Feng Shuo book you another ticket to M Country."
"I don't need you to worry about when I go to M Country! I am your attending physician, and I won't leave until you're discharged." Yun Mu declared.
Huo Tingying looked up at her, his deep, narrow eyes seeming to hold impenetrable ink, making it hard to read his emotions.
He said solemnly, "Yun Mu, we are already divorced, and my attending physician has been changed to Si Nanjue."
"Then change it back. I will treat your illness." Yun Mu insisted stubbornly. "Your life was saved by me, and I decide!"
Huo Tingying gazed into her clear eyes, momentarily unsure how to respond.
Finally, he resorted to his old tactic, choosing the most hurtful words to drive her away.
Turning his head away from her face, he said calmly, "Yun Mu, why bother? We have no ties anymore. Why make things difficult for yourself? Leave now while A'Ling hasn't arrived yet."
"Are you really going to force me out?" Yun Mu pressed him.
Huo Tingying's face darkened, but he remained silent.
Yun Mu's frustration rose. "What if I say that if I leave now, I won't come back again?"
His fists clenched and unclenched the sheets, and he lowered his eyes. "Feng Shuo, show her out."
The last glimmer of hope in Yun Mu's eyes faded.
She gave a bitter smile and said, "No need. I'll leave on my own."
Feng Shuo hesitated as he watched Yun Mu leave, wanting to chase after him but not daring to do so. He could only look on anxiously at the stubborn Huo Tingying.
"Young Master, why must you do this? Young Lady has finally come back. Can't you let her stay?"
Huo Tingying's cold eyes fell upon him. "If I hadn't woken up just now, were you going to tell her everything?"
Feng Shuo lowered his head. "Young Master, I..."
"Don't forget who your master is! Get out!" Huo Tingying snapped coldly.
"Yes."
...
Outside the door, Huo Chun saw Yun Mu rushing out of the ward and quickly approached him.
"How could you just leave like that?"
Yun Mu sneered. "What else? Stay inside and be humiliated?"
Huo Chun was taken aback. "He woke up?"
"Woke up. Go see for yourself."
Yun Mu stormed out of the ward and headed straight for the elevator.
Yunzhe, seeing her leave, shifted his gaze to Huo Chun beside him and said coldly, "You brought her back?"
Huo Chun nodded. "Yes, what's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
To her surprise, she found that the usually gentle Dr. Si was now looking at her with a murderous glare.
Yunzhe gave her a cold glance and pushed open the ward door, slamming it shut with a loud "Bang!"
Huo Chun, "..."
What kind of doctor is this? What kind of professionalism?!
Seeing Yunzhe enter with a furious expression, Huo Tingying sneered. "Your plan got disrupted, didn't it?"
Yunzhe's face darkened. "You know very well my intentions; I wouldn't harm her!"
"This was unexpected, and I didn't know Huo Chun would act like this. But she probably hasn't realized yet. I'll arrange for her to leave," Huo Tingying said.
Yunzhe, however, disagreed. He laughed coldly. "Do you really think she'll leave obediently?"
Huo Tingying's eyes darkened slightly. "She knows?"
"I'm not sure, but she won't leave until she sees you recover. So, you need to start the second treatment immediately. At least hold on until she leaves with peace of mind," Yunzhe said.
As long as Yun Mu goes to M Country, he can keep her there.
After a moment of silence, Huo Tingying nodded. "Fine, let's start tonight."
