Chapter 665: 665, Huanhuan, let’s get married
As soon as Grandfather Chu saw her, “Quickly, call the stinky boy and have him bring Secretary Shi over immediately!”
Next to him, little Luoluo was bathed in tears, and seemed to be worn out from crying.
All sorts of toys and snacks were piled high next to her; they had been bought by Grandfather Chu’s servant while they were on their way back just now.
But the little girl didn’t like any of them, and only knew how to cry incessantly. She didn’t call for daddy, didn’t call for mommy, all she did was call for…
“Huanhuan!”
Mrs. Chu frowned, “Ahuang is in the hospital and said that Shi Huan is hospitalized too.”
Shi Huan is in the hospital?
Grandfather Chu furrowed his brows.
Little Luoluo by his side started crying again, “Huanhuan, I want Huanhuan…”
“Don’t cry, dear, Luoluo don’t cry.” Grandfather Chu quickly soothed her.
“Huanhuan…”
“Huanhuan is in the hospital.”
“I want Huanhuan, wu wu wu…”
Impulsively, Grandfather Chu blurted out, “I’ll take you to see Huanhuan ok?”
Upon hearing these words, Little Luoluo suddenly stopped crying, “Ok.”
Madam Chu: “…”
What a clever little girl.
Grandfather Chu let out a sigh of relief and quickly got up, “Then you must listen to your grandfather, stop crying, and stand up on your own.”
Little Luoluo immediately stood up obediently. Not only did she stop crying, but she also took the initiative to hold his hand.
Children’s hands are chubby and soft, enough to melt Grandfather Chu’s heart.
He continued, “Wipe your tears as well.”
Little Luoluo immediately raised her small hand and scrubbed away her tear-stained face.
“Clever girl.” Grandfather Chu was suddenly overcome with joy.
It seems that this child really likes Shi Huan.
“Can I… go see Huanhuan now?” Little Luoluo asked, choking back sobs.
“Grandpa will take you there right now!”
As long as the little girl doesn’t cry, even if she wants the moon and the stars, Grandfather Chu will find a way to pluck them from the sky for her!

Nangong Hospital.
In the high-level VIP ward.
“By the way,” Shi Huan suddenly asked, “where is the person who saved me?”
Chu Xiuhuang squinted, “Do you want to see him? If you do, I’ll ask someone to bring him over.”
This old man could indeed be considered Shi Huan’s savior, and he was particularly honest. Chu had wanted to give him money the day before, but the man refused, saying that he only did as duty called.
But Chu Xiuhuang already initiated a private inquiry. He has reached out to the savior’s children and told company leaders to provide more support at work as a form of indirect compensation.
Shi Huan said, “I’m lucky he was there that day, otherwise…”
Thinking back on that terrifying incident, she was still a bit afraid.
There were altogether five men, each remarkably robust, and they were holding clubs.
She struggled desperately, almost biting the ear of the man in charge. That man became furious, and struck her with the clubs relentlessly.
Fortunately, she managed to delay them and keep crying for help. Eventually, someone from the company next door that was working overtime heard the commotion and came out.
The good Samaritan even personally brought her to the hospital, or the consequences could have been severe – she even suspected that she might have been beaten to death…
“Stop talking.” Chu Xiuhuang interrupted her, his expression somewhat complex.
For a woman, being violently assaulted and violated by men, especially by five of them…
It’s a disastrous blow!
Especially for someone with Shi Huan’s conservative personality.
He didn’t want her to relive that horrifying nightmare.
“What’s wrong?” Shi Huan looked at him, feeling confused.
Why was Chu looking so strange?
Chu Xiuhuang took a deep breath, took her hand again, and said earnestly, “Huanhuan, let’s get married.”
Not this again!
Shi Huan was helpless, “Chu, stop joking.”
“I’m not joking!” Chu Xiuhuang was even more helpess.
Why did this damned woman always think he was joking? Was he that unreliable?
“Chu, I’ve told you before, I’ve decided to study in France…”
“Study? Don’t you know your application has already expired?”
“What do you mean?”
“You’ve been unconscious for an entire week, missing the registration period at the school. Your spot has been cancelled.”
Shi Huan: “…”
Well then.
“After my injuries heal, I’ll apply to other schools.”
The remark made Chu Xiuhuang furious, “You damned woman, do you really have to leave me? Am I that insignificant to you?”
Shi Huan: “…”
*Knock, knock, knock!*
The door was suddenly knocked on.
Chu Xiuhuang couldn’t help but roll his eyes.
Why was it that someone always had to harass him – either by phone or by coming over?
Was some one-on-one bonding, some serious conversation… that difficult?
*Knock, knock, knock!*
The door was again knocked on and this time, it was directly pushed open.
“Huanhuan!”
Hearing this voice, Chu Xiuhuang’s handsome face darkened considerably.
Turning around, he indeed saw Su Wanwan and Mo Weiyi walking in.
Both of them were carrying flowers, gift baskets, and other presents, especially Mo Weiyi, who was dutifully clad in professional attire. It was clear that they had hurried over during their lunch break.
“Wanwan, Weiyi, you’re here.” Shi Huan greeted them with a smile from the hospital bed.
“Huanhuan, how are you feeling now?”
“Are you still in pain?”
“Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere?”
“…”
Chu Xiuhuang sat to one side, listening to the small talk between the three women.
After asking about her injuries, Mo Weiyi couldn’t help but ask, “Huanhuan, I heard from the police that the scumbags who hurt you were beaten up and even had their manhoods severed. Do you know who did it?”
Shi Huan was surprised, “I don’t know.”
“You don’t know either? I thought you had met some big shot.”
Some big shot?
Shi Huan immediately looked at Chu Xiuhuang.
Among the big shots she knew, besides Chu Xiuhuang, who else could it be?
Could it really be him?
When talking about a revenge tactic as brutal as castration, it seems like there’s nobody else but him.
Mo Weiyi continued to speak, “I was quite worried that you might do something rash, but seeing you now, I feel relieved.”
“Yes,” Su Wanwan also advised, “Huanhuan, don’t dwell on this too much. Let bygones be bygones.”
Shi Huan looked at them, “What do you mean by that?”
Why did she find it a little difficult to comprehend?
Mo Weiyi comfortingly patted her hand, “In any case, Huanhuan, try to keep your spirits up.”
” …Ok.” Shi Huan still felt somewhat confused.
She was merely suffering a little physically, so why did they speak with such a tone of finality?
“Didn’t your family come to see you?” Mo Weiyi suddenly changed the subject, “That’s just ridiculous! When you were in a coma, your relatives didn’t care about you; they vanished for days without even reporting to the police! Now that you’ve finally woken up, they still aren’t around to take care of you. What kind of shit family is this!”
“Okay, stop talking.” Su Wanwan pulled her aside.
Of course, she would bring up a sore point.
Pouring salt into other people’s wounds.
Mo Weiyi pouted.
She was just upset because she felt that Shi Huan was pitiful. After going through such a ruthless ordeal, she lay in the hospital for a week with nobody to care for her, without anyone inquiring about her condition – even now, the only person in the sick room with her was Chu Xiuhuang.
Could this butterfly boy really look after her?
Thinking about it, Mo Weiyi said, “Huanhuan, I can get some nursing assistants for you. Actually, you should just call your family’s servants over to look after you. Nursing assistants are just doing it for the money. They’re not reliable.”
“No need.”
“No need!”
Shi Huan and Chu Xiuhuang said in unison.
Mo Weiyi blinked her cat-like eyes, “What’s going on?”
Chu Xiuhuang coughed twice, “From now on, I’ll be responsible for her care.”
“Are you up to it?” Mo Weiyi blurted out.
Chu Xiuhuang responded with a tight smile, “Little Princess, hasn’t your husband ever taught you? Never ask a man whether he can or cannot.”
Mo Weiyi: “…”
Su Wanwan also: “…”

Soon, Aunt Wu brought rice porridge over.
It was the same method as drinking water – after the porridge cooled down completely, it was fed to her with a straw.
After Shi Huan had eaten, Chu Xiuhuang finally gave them the hint to leave, “Aren’t you guys leaving yet? It’s almost time for work.”
Su Wanwan looked at the time and reluctantly got up, “Huanhuan, we’ll be going first, and we’ll come over to see you next time.”
Mo Weiyi said, “Huanhuan, remember to say something in the group every day.”
“Okay,” Shi Huan nodded, “In a few days, I’ll have a coworker bring me a new phone.”
“Mm.”
Finally getting rid of the two tiny elders, Chu Xiuhuang immediately said, “I’ll have someone get you a new phone.”
“Thank you, young master Chu.”
“Why are you still being so formal with me?”
Shi Huan could only change the subject, “Young master Chu, were those guys brought to justice by you?”
Chu Xiuhuang did not deny it and nodded, “Mm.”
Shi Huan felt a slight stirring in her heart, “Why?”
“Why?” Chu Xiuhuang chuckled, “Who told them to be so blind as to dare to bully my woman? Anyone who messes with my woman must pay the price!”
Those scumbags were local hoodlums with a long history of crimes. Chu Xiuhuang felt he was performing a public service by punishing them.
Yet Shi Huan said, “Young master Chu, you didn’t have to go to those lengths for me …”
Before she could finish her sentence, Chu Xiuhuang interrupted her, “What do you mean ‘didn’t have to’? Damn it, I didn’t even kill them, I’ve gone easy on them!”
“But all I…”
“Stop talking!”
Chu Xiuhuang interrupted her again, “You’re not allowed to think about anything now except me. Take good care of yourself, and as soon as your injuries heal, we’ll immediately hold the wedding.”
He declared with utmost solemnity, “I’m being honest with you, and I’m serious when I speak. So don’t think I’m joking or else I’ll get angry.”Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Although he had originally planned to develop a relationship with Shi Huan carefully, he didn’t expect that a biological daughter would suddenly pop up.
He had no choice but to take the blame for the sins of the past.
“I admit, I’ve done some ridiculous things in the past, but I can assure you that from now on, I won’t touch another woman! I, Chu Xiuhuang, only have one woman, and that’s you… Shi Huan.”
Shi Huan looked at him, her fingers slowly clenching, her lips pursed but, she remained silent.
His heartfelt confession was met with silence and it made Chu Xiuhuang slightly anxious, he couldn’t help but authoritatively add, “You’re not allowed to refuse me, refusal is pointless, because I’ve already made a decision.”
Shi Huan: “…”
The room fell into silence.
With her pretty doe-eye gaze, Shi Huan looked at him motionlessly.
Chu Xiuhuang felt like he was undergoing a type of torment he had never experienced before …
He felt an unaccountable sense of unease and nervousness.
One must say, Little Luoluo, this sudden biological daughter, has somewhat disrupted his plans.
Having a history of crimes was one thing, now he even had an extra burden to bear!
Chu Xiuhuang, what face do you have to ask a maiden to agree to marry you?
And even be a stepmother to your child?
But …
“You like Luoluo, right?” Chu Xiuhuang asked.
There was a slight surprise in Shi Huan’s eyes, but she still nodded, “I like her.”
“Then, can you become Luoluo’s stepmother?”
Shi Huan was even more surprised, “Stepmother?”
“Ahem.” Chu Xiuhuang coughed twice, finding it somewhat difficult to speak.
Just then, “Knock knock knock!”
The door to the room was knocked on again, followed by the soft voice of a little girl.
“Huanhuan!”
Chu Xiuhuang was taken aback.
Turning around, sure enough, he saw old Mr. Chu leading Little Luoluo in.
Damn!
This old fellow!
Why didn’t he announce that he was bringing the child over?
Chu Xiuhuang held his forehead, feeling a throbbing headache.
“Luoluo, how did you get here?” Shi Huan, on the other hand, was delighted.
“Huanhuan.” Little Luoluo came to the bedside, raised both her little hands, tightly clutching Shi Huan’s arm, and with sobs in her voice started to complain, “I’m scared, I want to be with you.”
“Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid, I’m right here.” Shi Huan raised her hand to wipe Little Luoluo’s eyes.
Why were her eyes and nose swelling up like this?
“Have you been crying?”
Little Luoluo nodded her little head, she was about to cry remembering the horrifying experience she had just endured.
“Sweetie, don’t cry, don’t cry.” Shi Huan soothingly cooed while simultaneously looking up at old Mr. Chu.
Why was the little girl with the old man?
What do you think?
