Chapter Seventeen

  She sat on the edge of the washbasin. Han Yingqin had rolled up the sleeves of his military uniform and was wiping her hands for her.

  Still have a stuffy nose.

  "Hu Lai won't be beaten stupid, right?" with a hint of sobbing.

  Han Yingqin was both amused and annoyed, and also heartbroken. She was scared to death. First, she was robbed and frightened. Then, Hu Lai's head was smashed and stimulated. She then worried about Hu Lai's head. Mainly because her brain wasn't good since childhood. She was afraid that Hu Lai would have a similar fate of three longs and two shorts.

  "Uh-huh. My subordinate just sent me a message earlier. The phone is in your pocket. Take it out and see for yourself."

  He rummaged through his military uniform jacket pocket and pulled out a mobile phone.

  "It's locked." "What?" "My phone is locked."

  Han Yingqin was squatting down to put her feet on his knees and wiping them for her. Her high heels had been thrown off earlier, and she had run barefoot for a short distance before putting the shoes back on, but her feet were still bruised and scratched.

  Han Yingqin lifted his head and said a string of numbers. The lock was opened with a click. He flipped through the message.

  The message says: The wound on Hu's head is nothing serious. It was just a severe impact, so we're worried about the possibility of concussion. Therefore, we need to observe him closely for several days.

  "That means... he won't become an idiot, right?" She's worried about this. Asked again.

  Han Yingqin glared at her with annoyance. "No way. If Hu Lai was in real trouble, they wouldn't be sending me text messages like this. Hu Lai is a soldier after all. This time he was caught off guard and ambushed. But his instincts still kicked in to defend himself. Don't worry about it. Having one fool like you is enough, no need to drag more people into this."

  Listening to him, her heart that had been tightened up suddenly relaxed. She believed him then.

  She looked like she had relaxed a bit. Han Yingqin didn't say anything either. He continued to gently help her put on her shoes and socks. Then he stood up, put the towel aside, washed his hands, dried them, and then leaned over to pick her up, saying "Alright, your condition has stabilized. We need to take you in for a check-up."

  Still dazed. "What's going on."

  "Of course, it's for seeing a doctor." Han Yingqin tightly wrapped his arms around her waist, slightly tilting his head to the side as if feigning surprise.

  She was still dazed. "What's wrong with me..." Suddenly, she seemed to come back to her senses. "Oh, I'm fine. Just a little scratch on my foot. Nothing serious." She was still acting very bravely.

  Han Yingqin's eyebrows were furrowed in concern. "How can that be? You have a little baby now. Running like that just now, and then getting such a big fright afterwards... what if something happens to the baby?"

  Her face was already bright red. Both arms were tightly wrapped around his neck. Her head was buried in it, so ashamed that she only bit her lip.

  Han Yingqin pinched her waist and turned his head to bite her ear. "Go take a look, is the little baby still in your tummy?"

  She clung to him even tighter. Her legs were wrapped around his waist. She was being stubborn and playful, her voice muffled. "You clearly know I'm deceiving you."

  Han Yingqin's hand moved down. He pinched her little buttocks hard. "How can you be so shameless? In public like this. You dare to say such nonsense."

  Suddenly remembered the faintly distant look in his eyes when he left. His heart immediately tightened. He hurriedly raised his head. "I had no choice. I wanted to help Zhang Jin."

  And then. Beep boop beep boop. Beep boop beep boop. Like a kid who's just finished writing a report, everything came pouring out. Finally. And yet, with infinite resentment, he added one more sentence. "My heart is never satisfied. It's really hard to be a good person."

  Han Yingqin really believes in her crazy and evil ways.

  "You're still not done with your nonsense. This is getting out of hand. What kind of woman would use her own body to help someone for no reason? You shameless thing. You like him, and you just want to cling to him like this, don't you?" Han Yingqin gazed at her with a hint of a smile.

  One hand was still clutching his phone, and he went to pinch her face.

  "Don't look at me with that kind of gaze. And don't give me the same cold shoulder as you did in the hotel. Even if it's just to avoid suspicion, your eyes should be warm. You scoundrel! There's a hint of evasiveness about you. However, looking at Han Yingqin, he didn't fall for it. He let out a soft sigh and his face leaned against mine, saying in a wronged and pitiful tone: 'I used to have some feelings for him. But even if I did like him, I wouldn't use such tactics to cling to him. And now, even though I still admire him, my heart is no longer in it. With so many romantic entanglements already weighing me down, I don't want to add another one. I'm already overwhelmed.'"

  You say... this little woman in your arms... how can anyone bear to let go of her.

  She is greedy and lazy.

  Frankly. Honestly. Straightforwardly.

  He certainly knew that she couldn't do the "use a child to trick a man" thing. The reason wasn't because she was particularly noble, but rather because she was someone who could only focus on one thing at a time. Once she had a child, she wouldn't even remember men existed anymore... Moreover, it seemed like she really wanted a kid. Look at how she subconsciously used the word "child" when offering to help. The preconditions for marriage that she mentioned earlier also all revolved around "children"... These were probably just her subconscious reactions. Especially since she knew it wasn't easy for her to get pregnant...

  Thinking and thinking, Han Yingqin's heart softened again for her. He hugged her lightly and kissed her eyes, muttering: "Hush, hush, good baby, you'll have a little one soon. And earlier at the hotel, that look I gave you wasn't ignoring you, it was disdain. You're such an incompetent thing, always shouting 'Dad' when something happens. In the future, be calm and composed, pretend to be strong."

  Dazed and confused. "Won't."

  Han Yingqin couldn't help it. He gently lifted his hand and brushed away the hair in front of her forehead. "I'll teach you again later." After saying that, he wanted to let go of her and help her down. But at this time, she suddenly tightened her arms around his neck again. She looked at him with a sulky expression. "I changed your phone password."

  Han Yingqin smiled and held her waist. "You change."

  She leaned on his shoulder and changed the password. Finally. By his ear.

  "Nothing has changed. Han Yingqin only loves money."

  Finished speaking. Put the phone back in his pocket. Rested on his shoulder. Bit her lip. The roots of her ears were all red.

  Han Yingqin turned his head and pressed his face against hers. He gently rubbed against her. "Mmm... Han Yingqin only loves you."
