Chapter 599: Jealous

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Once Huo Tian walked away, she would be very depressed and could not eat. All her emotions were only affected by Huo Tian.

With Huo Tian’s rejection, Bai Ran could only give up.

Chen Chen looked at the two of them whispering to each other, but he did not know what they were talking about. He was instantly jealous.

However, he tried his best to appear calm so that no one could see that he was jealous. Despite that, he would secretly glance at the two of them from the corner of his eye from time to time.

Bai Ran did not think too much about it. Huo Tian was not the only one who felt guilty about Chen Lin’s illness. She was also very guilty.

Last time, Chen Lin insisted that Huo Tian did not accept Chen Lin because of her. Although Bai Ran felt that it was ridiculous and retorted in time, it did not mean that she did not have a knot in her heart.

Perhaps Huo Tian really did not accept Chen Lin because he had feelings for her?

After some thought, Bai Ran asked, “Um… What do you think about Xiao Lin?”

This sudden question surprised Huo Tian. He looked up and asked, “What do you mean?”

“She likes you so much and has no intention of giving up. What do you plan to do next?” Bai Ran looked troubled.

Huo Tian was also a little awkward. “Let her be discharged first. When her body recovers, we’ll slowly counsel her. That’s all we can do for now.”

“Then, you’ll definitely reject her?” Bai Ran asked casually.

Unexpectedly, Huo Tian’s expression suddenly became very serious. He said suspiciously, “Do you think I’ll accept her? She’s not even 18 yet. I, Huo Tian, am not that kind of beast. Her so-called liking is just because she’s immature, but I’m an adult. I can’t do such a thing.”

After a pause, Huo Tian immediately said, “Besides, I already have someone I like. There can’t be a second person.”

When Huo Tian said this, it was Bai Ran’s turn to be embarrassed. She did not know what to say.

Wasn’t she the person Huo Tian said he liked? In that case, the fact that Huo Tian did not like Chen Lin because of her was really confirmed.

Bai Ran did not escape. Instead, she said, “Alright, but President Huo, I’ve already told you all my thoughts previously.”

Unexpectedly, Huo Tian asked, “Is it because of him? Are you two together again?”

With that, he looked at Chen Chen not far away.

Bai Ran was a little awkward and said, “Not entirely… Even without him, I still told you my thoughts. It won’t change.”

Huo Tian lowered his head and smiled. “I understand. Don’t worry, I’ll still have the same attitude as before. I’ll always protect you. It doesn’t matter even if you don’t feel the same way.”

When he thought of how a person’s eyes could not be hidden, Chen Chen’s heart became more and more sour when he saw the two of them talking more and more. It was as if he wanted to eat him up.

Huo Tian was very sharp and had long sensed Chen Chen’s hostility. He only smiled and said, “Alright, I’ll go ask the doctor about the situation first. If I don’t leave now, someone will skin me alive.”

Bai Ran was puzzled. She looked around and saw Chen Chen’s flickering eyes looking at her.

She was a little helpless and angry. Earlier, at her house, he had been frivolous, but now, he was jealous.

Huo Tian had just left when the emergency room door opened.

The few of them rushed forward almost at the same time. Chen Chen said, “Doctor, how is it? How is the patient?”

The doctor waved his hand and said, “Don’t be too nervous. The patient is fine. She just underwent plastic surgery before she recovered. The wounds on her face are a little infected…”

“What? Her wound is infected? She won’t be disfigured, right?” Huo Tian was shocked by these words and asked nervously.

The doctor explained, “Fortunately, she was discovered in time. The patient had a fever because of the infection and fainted because her body’s foundation was not good. We just gave her anti-inflammatory medicine. She’ll be fine after a while.”

“Then how is her body?” Huo Tian asked again.

The doctor replied, “She’s quite healthy. She has recovered a lot since she entered the emergency room last time. As long as you take good care of her and ensure that her sleep and diet are regular, she should be discharged soon.”

So it was a false alarm. After hearing this, the few of them heaved a sigh of relief. Huo Tian’s expression finally looked a little better.

Soon, the nurse inside pushed Chen Lin out and entered the ward.

When they returned to the ward, Chen Chen quickly went forward and held Chen Lin’s hand. “Xiao Lin, how are you? Are you feeling okay?”
