He had a stand for the iPad, but he wanted her to hold the tablet for him anyway.
Lu Zhaoyang did not mind him intentionally making things difficult for her. As long as his mood improved, she would suffer less both at home and at work.
Huo Yunting took his time to finish his breakfast. He then laid back in his chair and rested his eyes.
Lu Zhaoyang thought he was going to take a nap, so she put the iPad down and made her way inside the house.
“Where are you going?”
The moment she started walking, Huo Yunting spoke up.
Isn’t he asleep? She pouted and went back reluctantly to the man.
“Why did you switch it off?” He looked at the iPad and asked unhappily.
“The movie ended. Do you want to watch anything else?”
She had turned off the display just now. When Huo Yunting reactivated the screen, it showed the end credits running.
“No!”
The movie was only for him to pass time.
He did not sleep well last night, probably because she was not beside him. That was why he woke up so early this morning.
His forehead still throbbed with pain, so he watched a movie to distract himself.
“Then I’m going inside. Let me know if you need anything.” She had not taken anything since she woke up, and standing in the hot weather for so long had worn her out.
Huo Yunting watched her disappear into the house. He curled his lips in annoyance. It was really embarrassing to fail to figure out who was on her mind yesterday and even got himself injured by her.
For the entire weekend, Huo Yunting treated Lu Zhaoyang coldly. Even the servants could tell that he was not in good mood. The atmosphere in the house was tense.
Lu Zhaoyang agreed to his every request, still he could not break a smile.
When Huo Yunting went to work on Monday, his appearance drew attention from everyone in the office.
Why is their dashing Mr President wearing a bandage to the office? Hell, who would dare to hurt him? That’s crazy!
As the one actually responsible for it, Lu Zhaoyang tried her best to ignore all the talk happening in the office and focus on her work.
In the president’s office, Huo Li tended to Huo Yunting’s wound and said, “Brother Ting, as expected from you, your injury is healing quickly!”
Huo Yunting was used to his flattery, however he could not help but shoot a dangerous look at him.
“Will it leave a scar?”
“Of course not! With me looking after you, there will be no scars, don’t you worry!” Huo Li packed up his medical kit and asked noncommittally, “Boss, did you get answers that day?”
Huo Yunting knew he was asking about the matter of the person called “Chen”. That brought back unpleasant memories. “Get out!”
“Don’t be angry. I think she was very close to that man once, but now they are separated, and she is your wife. Unless she’s gone blind,” Huo Li laughed and continued, “If I’m a woman, I will definitely choose you, Brother Ting!”
“If you’re a woman, I won’t even let you get near me. Now leave!”
He would not have a woman who was a chatterbox around him. That would be insufferable.
“Yes, yes, yes...” Huo Li picked up his med kit and left the office as he whistled to a tune.
Huo Yunting sat in his office and did not feel like doing anything. Lu Zhaoyang was just a few doors away. All he needed to do was ask her about the man.
She would probably keep mum about it, however. That person must be as important to her as Xue Yuming.
She married him because of Xue Yuming, but she may also push him away because of that man.
