Chapter 77: Chapter 77 How Dare to Trouble Mr. Huo to Lower Himself

“Huo Tingdong…” Lin Qi was somewhat surprised.

She didn’t expect Huo Tingdong to be here.

Huo Tingdong walked up to her, his gaze fixed on her dislocated arm, “What happened?”

Lin Qi shook her head.

She was quite shocked, her mind in turmoil, devoid of the capability to even organize her words.

Huo Tingdong slowly bent down, lifting her by the waist with one arm.

...

She was so thin that carrying her in his arms was effortlessly easy.

Instinctively, Lin Qi clutched his collar, letting him hold her without the strength to struggle, although, surrounded by so many people, being held like a rag doll in his embrace was unavoidably embarrassing.

“Sir, please let go.”

“We need to get this injured person to the hospital immediately.”

Huo Tingdong said, “She is my person, I will take her myself.”

Everyone was startled.

Huo Tingdong, in his impeccably tailored suit, handmade and perfectly fitted, showed no crease even with his vigorous movements.

The nobility in the man’s every gesture made everyone else step back.

“Anyway… please take her to the hospital soon! This lady’s hand… looks like it’s dislocated.”

Huo Tingdong carried Lin Qi and walked out of the office.

Outside the office, the crowd was jam-packed.

With a hostile look on his face, Huo Tingdong commanded, “Move aside!”

His harsh reprimand sent a shiver through the crowd, immediately clearing a pathway.

Huo Tingdong, holding Lin Qi, entered the elevator.

Inside the elevator, the space was close and quiet.

Lin Qi, drained of strength, slumped weakly in his arms. The man suddenly noticed her dislocated hand, thin and bony, its joints and wrist scraped raw, oozing dense beads of blood.

Huo Tingdong lifted her hand, and the person in his arms sharply inhaled in pain.

He asked softly, “Does it hurt?”

Lin Qi nodded, her eyes swiftly moistening, tears swirling within.

Perhaps it was her fragile appearance that truly elicited pity.

He was used to seeing her fierce like a little cat, and compared to that, her current state aroused a sense of tenderness from deep within him; his voice and movements instinctively softened, “Don’t move around, we’ll be at the hospital soon.”

Lin Qi hoarsely asked, “Why are you here?”

Huo Tingdong responded, “I got your call.”

Lin Qi was stunned.

Was he worried about her?

Impossible.

Does this man care about anyone other than Han?

Lin Qi said, “What about Mrs. Fang? I saw her falling… I don’t know how she is now…”

Huo Tingdong replied, “Unconcerned whether alive or dead.” His cold tone emitted a chilling aloofness.

He simply did not care whether Mrs. Fang was alive or dead, even if she were dead or crippled, it would not concern him.

Lin Qi was startled by his indifferent words for a few seconds, but then felt that this was typical of Huo Tingdong; such a reaction from him was to be expected.

She looked up at Huo Tingdong’s cold profile, his jawline sharp as if chiseled, arrogant and lofty everywhere.

Mrs. Fang’s hysterical words echoed in her ears: “The Huo Family controls a massive business empire, its core members are leading figures in both commerce and politics. Beyond the skies, there’s the Huo Family, and Huo Tingdong is the pinnacle of the Huo Family, dominating half of the economic veins of this nation, his wealth controlling half the capital market. If the Huo Family withdraws its investment, the global economy could swiftly regress by twenty years.”

“No one knows how rich or powerful he really is, but those who he cannot tolerate will end up dying horribly, with no tomorrow! Offending anyone is better than offending Huo Tingdong! Huo Tingdong is a man utterly ruthless at heart!”

Lin Qi’s heartbeat suddenly quickened.

Huo Tingdong looked down, “What’s wrong?”

She lowered her head, not daring to meet his gaze, merely saying, “Don’t let Momo and Han know about my injury.”

Huo Tingdong responded, “Understood.”

The elevator doors opened with a “ding.”

Huo Tingdong carried her out just in time to see Mrs. Fang being loaded into the ambulance, the doors closed, and the ambulance sped away.

The crowd hadn’t dispersed yet, and murmurs could be heard.

“From such a height, the chances of survival are slim.”

“I took a close look just now, both her hands and feet are deformed from the fall! And who knows if she damaged her brain…”

“The fact that the doctors didn’t declare her dead on the spot means there’s still hope!”

“…”

Lin Qi was petrified by what she heard.

She didn’t know what means Huo Tingdong had used to drive Mrs. Fang to attempt suicide.

From this, her fear of this man deepened even more.

Hospital.

Lin Qi’s hand was set in place, and she was then moved to a hospital room for observation.

Perhaps due to an extreme depletion of energy, she fell into a stupor while hooked up to an IV for swelling.

When she woke up again, it was dusk outside.

Lin Qi sat up groggily in bed and muttered confusedly, “Momo… Han…”

At this time, Momo and Han should be out of school.

From the side, Huo Tingdong’s icy voice came through, “I’ve already sent someone to pick them up.”

Lin Qi looked towards the voice.

Huo Tingdong was sitting in the corner, his legs elegantly crossed.

He had been watching over her the entire afternoon.

Lin Qi stared wide-eyed, not knowing when the IV had been removed, and she was sweating all over.

“Are you feeling more alert now?” Huo Tingdong asked.

Lin Qi nodded.

Huo Tingdong said, “The doctor said there’s nothing serious with you, aside from being a bit frightened and your hand being scraped. Your arm is dislocated, but no other issues were found.”

Lin Qi asked, “Is Mrs. Fang still alive?”

Huo Tingdong countered, “Whether she is dead or alive, do you really care?”

Lin Qi replied, “After all, it’s a human life…”

“Huh,” Huo Tingdong scoffed, “She almost killed you, even if she’s dead, she deserved it.” His gaze lowered, and he coldly added, “If she’s still alive, I’ll make her wish she wasn’t.”

This woman, daring to use Lin Qi to threaten him.

Those who dare threaten him never end well.

Seeing Lin Qi remaining silent, Huo Tingdong suddenly said, “Currently, I haven’t received any special notice, which means she’s still hanging on, but falling from such a height means—dead or crippled. You should feel lucky that it was her who stepped into thin air, not you.”

Lin Qi was still somewhat shaken, “I guess I’m lucky.” She was wearing high heels and had almost stepped into thin air herself.

She almost didn’t get to see Momo and Han again.

Lin Qi asked, “Can I be discharged now?”

“Anytime.”

Lin Qi lifted the blanket, intending to get out of bed but couldn’t find her shoes.

“My… Where are my shoes?”

“They fell,” Huo Tingdong replied.

The man suddenly stood up, walked to the bed, and bent down to carry her.

Lin Qi dodged a little.

Huo Tingdong lowered his eyes, looked at her somewhat stubborn face and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Lin Qi replied, “I dare not trouble Mr. Huo to demean himself.”

Huo Tingdong smirked ambiguously, “You can trouble me.” After saying that, his strong arms slipped under her knees and one hand wrapped around her back, securely carrying her in his arms.
