Chapter 1772: Retire After Success, Honorable in Defeat (Forty-Nine)

"Huo Mian, where is she?" Rick was extremely nervous.

"It's in my room, please go in and take a look." Huo Mian lied without even drafting a draft. Only today did she realize that she was so good at acting.

Watching Rick rush in, Huo Mian showed a proud smile. When she went downstairs, everyone downstairs was dumbfounded.

"Doctor Huo, what's going on?" Tang Chuan asked.

"It's okay, just eat your food." Huo Mian smiled.

"My wife guessed it right. It seems that Goddess Huo wants to win over others today..." Wei Liao chuckled.

"Yes, yes, your wife is right about everything. Your wife is the smartest." After saying that, Huo Mian did not forget to add, "Oh, Weiwei, you are not bad, you train her well..."

Huo Mian rarely joked so easily, making everyone burst into laughter.

It makes Wei Liao a little shy...

Huo Mian was sitting on her seat, holding a mouthful of Sichuan Bei Liangpi and was about to eat it when Su Yu immediately knocked her chopsticks away.

"What do you mean?" Huo Mian looked at Su Yu in confusion.

"You are just out of confinement, so don't eat it so cold."

"..." Huo Mian was speechless?

Everyone knew it and snickered. Su Yu had been gentle towards Huo Mian for more than a day or two. Everyone was used to it.

Upstairs, in Huo Mian's bedroom.

When Rick rushed in, he saw Xixi standing there intact, and Rick understood that Huo Mian had planned it.

He was a little embarrassed, and just as he turned around to leave, he was stopped by Xixi.

"Rick..."

"What's up?"

"Do you really hate me so much that you want to leave when you see me?" Xixi was a little heartbroken.

"I think... we have spoken clearly enough between the two of us, haven't we?" Rick responded calmly?

Sisi plucked up the courage, walked over, and approached Rick's side.

"Rick, I have to explain that matter to you... I really didn't do it. I didn't betray Huo Mian on purpose. Is it really not me?"

Rick said nothing, just silence.

"You really don't believe me at all! Do you think I would be so despicable and shameless? Even betraying my own friends?" Xixi asked.

"It's meaningless to say this now, Xixi, it really doesn't matter anymore." Rick said calmly.

But Sisi was so sad that she walked up to Rick with tears in her eyes.

"This is very important to me. It is the happiness of my life... Rick, I was wrong. I shouldn't have been too stupid and naive. I shouldn't have made the decision on my own to find Huo Mian. I almost harmed her and the baby. I It’s really not intentional, please don’t be angry, okay?”

Like a child, Sisi pulled on the corner of Rick's clothes and apologized choked with sobs.

"Xixi, you don't need to apologize, it's not your fault."

"No, I really know that I was wrong, Rick, let's not break up, okay... I really don't want to separate from you. This is the first time I love someone so seriously..." Sisi abandoned her dignity as a girl and went with Rick. Bare your heart?

To be honest, Rick was struggling inside...

He didn't want to injure an innocent girl like Xixi, so he didn't want to delay her youth or break the connection.

So he gritted his teeth and said, "Xixi, I think I made it very clear. Let's not waste time. I have something else to do... Let's go first."

After saying that, Rick suddenly raised his feet and walked away, throwing away Xixi's hand that was holding the corner of his clothes. Xixi felt completely despaired for a moment.

When Rick was about to step out of the room, she couldn't help crying and asked, "Rick, tell me whether you have ever loved me... is the love between us two a one-man show by myself?" ? What am I to you just for fun? Just throw it away? Well, tell me..."

After listening to Xixi's question, Rick felt a slight sting in his heart.
