Chapter 215: Chapter 215 Huo Shiyuan Schedules Surgery

“Why did we come to this place?” Yuan Xi asked.

Huo Shiyan replied, “Only here can I calm down.”

Yuan Xi resignedly said, “I’m so tired. Is Ruohu Mansion close by? Let’s go sleep at Ruohu Mansion.”

Huo Shiyan looked at Yuan Xi and asked, “Do you still remember this place? We used to come here treasure hunting as kids.”

Yuan Xi looked around; with the car lights on, she could clearly see the surroundings. “Mhm.”

Huo Shiyan said, “I deeply regret that a year ago at Shiyi Hotel, I slept with you…”

Listening to Huo Shiyan, Yuan Xi sounded puzzled in her reply, “Why?”

Huo Shiyan gazed at Yuan Xi and said, “Perhaps if we had a normal relationship, got married, and had children, you might have loved me a bit. But you married me only because of the child, so you didn’t even look forward to the wedding…”

“Xiao Xi, let’s pretend we never got married and that this past year never happened; can we start dating again?”

Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan, “What about Lele and Anan? How can we pretend this year never happened? I’m not frivolous. Even when drunk, I have self-control. If I didn’t like you, I would never have slept with you while intoxicated.”

Yuan Xi said, “It’s very late, President Huo, shall we go back to sleep?”

Seeing the weariness in Yuan Xi’s eyes, Huo Shiyan started the car and headed to Ruohu Mansion.

The master bedroom at Ruohu Mansion was quite clean because of the live-in maid.

As soon as Yuan Xi returned to the master bedroom, she almost immediately fell asleep, vaguely feeling a strength around her waist.

Yuan Xi opened her eyes and saw the wide-awake Huo Shiyan; she embraced him, “Little brother.”

Huo Shiyan heard Yuan Xi’s voice, slightly stunned, then kissed her lips.

Yuan Xi genuinely did not know when she had fallen asleep, only aware that as her consciousness faded, she had already been carried to the bathroom by Huo Shiyan for a shower.

When Yuan Xi woke up again, it was already broad daylight. She opened the electronic curtains, and the natural landscape of Ruohu was in full view, with the distant construction site of Ruohu Resort Hotel, but there was no noise.

Yuan Xi heard some noises at the door and looked at the entering Huo Shiyan, asking, “Has the Ruohu project been halted?”

Huo Shiyan replied, “No, I asked them to stop for half a day, so as not to disturb your sleep.”

Yuan Xi quickly looked at her watch; it was almost eleven o’clock. “My morning meeting! Huo Shiyan!”

“Mi Chen won’t collapse without you. Besides, you were the one who called me ‘little brother.'”

Yuan Xi: “…”

Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyan and asked, “Are you calm now?”

Huo Shiyan nodded, “Yes, I’m calm now.”

Yuan Xi exhaled, “Good that you’re calm, let’s go back. I promised Lele and Anan that they’d see me when they woke up this morning…”

Huo Shiyan chuckled softly, “Lele and Anan are still so young, what do they know.”

Yuan Xi changed into another outfit. Most of her clothes at Ruohu were former professional attire.

After changing, Huo Shiyan gave her a meaningful smile.

On the ride back to City A, Yuan Xi worked on business affairs using Huo Shiyan’s laptop, dealing with emails, and looking at the records of the morning meeting.

Yuan Xi spoke to Huo Shiyan, “I used to think Mi Chen couldn’t function without me, but today I realized that it seems Mi Chen can survive without me too…”

Both Qi Yitao Wen, the secretary duo, were even more excellent than when she assisted Gu Hanchen.

The presidents of Mi Chen’s overseas departments were all quite competent.

Huo Shiyan said, “So, do you understand my feelings now?

In my world, days without you, no matter how great my achievements, are bland and lackluster. Only with you, does my world shine brightly.

In your world, however, I only occupy such a small part; with or without me, it’s all the same, just like how Mi Chen is without you now.”

Yuan Xi: “…”

Yuan Xi saw a pharmacy as they passed by and said to Huo Shiyuan, “Stop the car, I need to buy some medicine.”

Huo Shiyuan replied, “I’ve already made an appointment with a dentist for you. We’ll see him when we return to City A.”

Yuan Xi responded, “It’s not for a wisdom tooth infection, it’s… emergency medication. You took no precautions last night.”

Huo Shiyuan said, “Don’t take it, emergency medicine is harmful to the body.”

“Taking emergency meds may be harmful, but it’s better than getting pregnant.”

Huo Shiyuan looked at Yuan Xi and said, “It’s not that coincidental.”

Yuan Xi touched her stomach, “It only took one time a year ago, what if it happens to be that coincidental again this time…”

Huo Shiyuan reluctantly stopped the car, “I’ll schedule a sterilization surgery, so we won’t need to take any precautions or use emergency meds in the future.”

Yuan Xi: “… Are you serious?”

Huo Shiyuan smiled and said, “Do you really want to have a third child?”

Yuan Xi thought for a moment, “It’s hard to say right now, I definitely don’t want another one at the moment, but maybe my mind will change as I grow older?”

Huo Shiyuan said, “That’s okay, the tubes can probably be reconnected if we really want another one later.”

Yuan Xi gave a light smile, “Then go ahead and make the appointment for the surgery.”

Yuan Xi went into the pharmacy to buy the medicine.

She heard two pharmacy staff members discussing inside.

“Who is this news talking about? A female gaming billionaire who neglects her family… How many female gaming billionaires are there?”

“It seems like the CEO of ‘Forest Pursuit’ is a woman.”

“I only remember Gu Hanchen.”

“Oh, I remember now, her name is Yuan Xi.”

Yuan Xi was unsure whether to speak up when Huo Shiyuan from the side said, “Hello, one box of emergency medicine, please.”

The employee looked up at the couple, took a box of medicine, and said, “38 yuan, will you pay by scan or in cash?”

“By scan.”

After Yuan Xi paid, she went to the neighboring shop to buy a bottle of water.

Back in the car, Yuan Xi read the instructions and then took a pill.

Huo Shiyuan looked at Yuan Xi, “Why didn’t you take the medicine a year ago?”

Yuan Xi replied, “At that time, I never even thought about not wanting children. For me back then, I desperately wanted a family. When I found out I might be pregnant, I was more happy than anything else.”

“Lele and Anan both came into this world amidst my hopeful anticipation.”

“That’s why I wasn’t happy when you suggested last night that we could redo what happened a year ago.”

Huo Shiyuan said, “Actually, Qin Lang had thoughtfully prepared a condom that day.”

Yuan Xi looked at Huo Shiyuan, “Why didn’t you…”

Huo Shiyuan chuckled lightly, “Actually, I was also hoping for Lele and Anan.”

Yuan Xi smiled, then her phone rang.

She looked at her phone; Gu Hanchen had forwarded her a news link, identical to what the female staff were discussing—a gossip column had teased an upcoming story with the headline ‘Gaming Billionairess Is Ungenerous to Elders,’ with many people instantly thinking of Yuan Xi.

But Yuan Xi felt it wasn’t about her. The head of the Chu Family wouldn’t be foolish enough to air dirty laundry online.

As for the elders in the Yuan Family, they had made a scene before that was exposed, and they hadn’t caused any more trouble since, and it was unlikely they would come forward to make noise now.
