    Chapter 317 I Want to See Him

    When Yunzhe walked out of the operating room, Xuanyuan Ming had arrived.

    Qingyuan stood with a group of bodyguards lined up in two rows behind him, exuding an air of mystery and nobility, which was typical of Xuanyuan Ming.

    Huo Tingying was still unconscious. When he woke up, all the sweet memories of Yun Mu would vanish.

    He would only remember that he had once married an ugly, foolish woman named Yun Mu, and they were already divorced.

    Xuanyuan Ming’s health had been deteriorating lately, and upon suddenly learning that his eldest son was critically ill, he nearly fainted and had to be revived.

    "Doctor, how is my son?"

    Xuanyuan Ming felt that this doctor looked familiar, but he had no time to dwell on it at the moment.

    Yunzhe replied politely, "He is doing well now. After he wakes up, he will have a new lease on life."

    Xuanyuan Ming breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Yunzhe gratefully, "I heard from Lu Shao that Doctor Si has been treating my son during this time. I am very grateful to you. To show my appreciation, whatever reward you need, I will provide."

    Yunzhe did not particularly want to interact with the Xuanyuan family. "It’s not necessary. Healing the sick is a doctor’s duty. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave now."

    With that, he left the hospital.

    Yun Mu should be waking up at home soon. He needed to return quickly to watch over her and prevent her from causing trouble.

    Sure enough, as soon as he entered the villa, he heard the servants’ exclamations of alarm.

    "Miss Yun! You need to lie down. There are guards at the door, and without Mr. Yun’s permission, you can’t leave!"

    "Yes, Miss Yun, put your shoes on first..."

    Yun Mu roared angrily, "All of you get lost! I’m going to the hospital!"

    Although Yun Mu could no longer see, she still had her agility. The few maids couldn’t handle her.

    She rushed towards the door, her dress trailing behind her, and collided right into Yunzhe’s chest.

    Yunzhe grunted.

    "Yunzhe? How dare you drug me! You scoundrel!"

    Yun Mu immediately grabbed Yunzhe by the collar, clenching her fist to strike him.

    Yunzhe caught her wrist and said, "Still have the energy to fight me? Don’t you want to know about Huo Tingying’s condition?"

    Immediately, she loosened her grip and asked anxiously, "How is he? Did the medicine work? Is he..."

    "He’s fine. The antidote worked."

    Yunzhe stated directly.

    Yun Mu’s breath hitched momentarily, then her lips curved upward, and her beautiful, unfocused eyes instantly filled with tears of joy.

    It worked! She finally cured him!

    From now on, he would live a long life, and the century-old curse of the Yi family could be broken!

    A look of excited relief spread across Yun Mu’s pale face, and her tense nerves relaxed instantly. Her slender body swayed, about to collapse, and Yunzhe caught her immediately.

    "Now that he’s okay, will you accept treatment properly? Do you know how bad your condition is?" Yunzhe said, both heartbroken and angry, "If you don’t treat your eyes properly, you really will go blind!"

    Yun Mu was about to speak but started coughing uncontrollably, feeling as if her insides were being expelled.

    Yunzhe tried to pat her back to help her breathe, but she dodged away.

    "I want to see him."

    "Can you see?"

    Yun Mu replied, "I just want to talk to him, and then I’ll come back for my eye treatment. Can I do that?"

    Her attitude was unusually compliant.

    Yunzhe knew that even if he refused, she would sneak out to see Huo Tingying. It was better to agree.

    "Alright, but I have something to do and can’t accompany you. I’m not comfortable letting you go alone, so I’ll have Wen Qingqing go with you."

    "Okay."

    Yun Mu nodded.

    ...

    Huo Tingying felt as if he had been in a long dream. He slowly opened his eyes and found himself in a familiar place.

    He was back in his villa on Lake Heart Island, lying in the room where he had lived alone for years.

    He felt like he had experienced a surreal dream, but when he opened his eyes, he couldn’t recall anything specific.

    "Tingying, you’re awake? How do you feel?"

    Huo Tingying turned his gaze, and Xuanyuan Ming walked in from the doorway, full of concern and affection.

    His expression instantly turned cold. "What are you doing here?"

    Xuanyuan Ming explained, "I heard you were ill and rushed over. Thank goodness you’re alright, otherwise..."

    "You have more than one son. My death wouldn’t affect you much."

    "Huo Tingying, how can you say such inauspicious words!" Xuanyuan Ming immediately grew angry. "Even if you don't want to acknowledge me as your father, you shouldn't speak about yourself like that. Do you know how worried I was when I heard about your accident?"

    Huo Tingying closed his eyes, not wanting to say more to Xuanyuan Ming.

    The room fell silent. Xuanyuan Ming looked around and asked, "Where is Yun Mu? With something so serious happening to you, why isn't she here taking care of you?"

    Huo Tingying raised his eyebrows, somewhat puzzled. "We've already divorced. Why should she take care of me?"

    Xuanyuan Ming was taken aback. "Divorced? What happened?"

    At that moment, A'Ling entered the room with medicine, knocking gently on the door. She seemed cautious upon seeing Xuanyuan Ming.

    "Tingying, it's time for your medicine."

    Huo Tingying glanced at A'Ling and nodded calmly.

    Xuanyuan Ming watched as Huo Tingying did not resist A'Ling helping him take his medicine, and then she handed him a tissue to wipe his mouth. He felt a sudden unease.

    This...

    How did he end up divorcing Yun Mu?

    Could it be that this boy has fallen for someone else!

    Xuanyuan Ming looked at the two with a complicated expression, then turned and left the room, pulling Qingyuan aside to question him.

    "What has happened to Tingying during this period? Tell me everything!"

    Qingyuan, "I was just about to report to the boss. A lot has happened to the eldest young master recently. Apart from his illness, the biggest change was probably his divorce from Miss Yun Mu. It's said that he found his long-lost first love, which led to the divorce."

    "First love?!"

    "Yes, sir. We have investigated. Even when he married Miss Yun Mu, the eldest young master had been secretly searching for a mysterious girl. He only found her recently. And this mysterious girl is Miss A'Ling."

    Xuanyuan Ming's face darkened. "Rubbish! Absolute rubbish! To divorce such a good girl like Yun Mu for a woman of unknown background, I..."

    Qingyuan quickly stopped him. "Boss, this was the eldest young master's own decision. If you interfere, it might only make him distance himself from you even more."

    Xuanyuan Ming paused, pondering for a moment before nodding.

    "You're right. With his personality, who could control him? I just hope he doesn't regret it later."

    Xuanyuan Ming glanced through the crack in the door, sighed, and turned to leave.
