Chapter 237

. What more could be said of a pampered womanFor now, she could only use Huo Mingzheng as a shield. "Now that the second brother is the head of the family, family rules can only be enforced by him. H...That was the first year that Huo Yuan had been crippled in both legs.

He sat in his wheelchair all day, refusing to speak to anyone. His appetite also grew worse and worse; at one point, he went three days without eating.

The doctor said that it was due to psychological reasons that he developed anorexia.

What he cared about most was his legs.

Old Master Huo was so worried that his old ailments flared up again. He consulted famous doctors to treat his legs, but nothing worked. Later on, Huo Yuan became increasingly depressed, and the Huo family fell into an endless cycle of despair.

When I advised Huo Yuan to eat, he went without accomplishing anything and returned. When I advised Huo Yuan to eat again,

Ho Mingzheng was already prepared to leave the military academy at that time, even though it was his original intention. However, he didn't want to let his older brother bear the burden of the Huo family alone.

He was on his way home, just about to tell his older brother about the decision. When he reached his bedroom door, he found it was open.

Just as he was about to speak, a girl's voice, soft and tentative, came from inside: "Is it delicious"

Footsteps came to a halt.

Is Fu Yan.

He peered inside through the open door, and Huo Yuan was scooping up food with a spoon.

"The candied fruit that YanYan made is delicious." Huo YuanShi smiled faintly. If it weren't for those crippled legs, he would still be the most handsome and dashing young master of the Huo family in NanCheng.

Fu Yan smiled happily. "Big brother, if you like it, I'll make it for you every day."

The servants who took care of Huo Yuan couldn't help but praise, "Miss Fu is still capable. She cooked this fruit porridge for the young master. I've never seen such a beautiful porridge before, it's colorful."

Fu Yan was praised and her cheeks flushed, "It's only because I added fruit that it looks good. When I was a child, I got sick and didn't want to eat anything, my dad..."

Probably realizing these words were taboo in the Huo family, she quickly changed her tune, "My previous family used to cook fruit congee for me."

Although fruit congee is more suitable for coaxing children, Huo Yuan smiled and patted her head.

"Feel free to say anything you want here, no need to hold back."

Her eyes sparkled, and even from afar, Huo Mingzheng could see the star-like brilliance in her gaze.

"What's wrong with your hand" Huo Yuan Shi grabbed her hand.

Fu Yan hurriedly pulled her hand back. The maid, seeing this, guessed, "Didn't you get burned while making porridge Miss Fu, wait a moment, I'll go get some medicine."

The maid rushed out, and Huo Mingzheng dodged, standing behind the corner of the wall. He could still hear the conversation inside.

"Does it hurt"

"It doesn't hurt."

"All of them are blistered, how come it doesn't hurt From now on, you're not allowed to do this again."

"My big brother likes to eat, so I want to cook for him. I'm happy if you feel good after eating, "

......

Huo Mingzheng put down his spoon and stood up. Fu Yan hurriedly grabbed his left hand, "You've only had two bites."

"I'm done eating." The man pulled his hand away from her.

Fu Yan also put down her chopsticks and chased after him, but Huo Mingzheng had already sat on the sofa, picking up a tablet and looking at something.

She had no choice but to go back to the table and finish the rice in her bowl.

When Cao Fang came in to tidy up, he was taken aback. “Miss Fu, didn’t Mr. Huo eat”

He doesn't seem to have much of an appetite.

Cao Fang worriedly said, "General Huo is in his prime, and wouldn't be full eating this kind of food anyway. Not to mention that he hasn't been eating much these past two days. How can his body recover quickly like this"ent to the hospital for emergency treatment. She didn't return until the fifth day of the Lunar New Year. The doctor corrected her due date to be exactly the fifth day of the Lunar New Year."Ji Lin fe...
