After Getting a Divorce, I Continued Being a Miracle Doctor

66 I Understand

The Hou family members could sense that Hou Junlai changed.

Mrs. Hou said with a smile, “I understand.”

Mr. Hou said in confusion, “What do you understand?”

Mrs. Hou said proudly, “Junlai must have thought it through and decided to pursue Jian Xing’er again. What’s left now is for Jian Xing’er to agree. As long as she agrees, the two of them will remarry.”

Mr. Hou didn’t believe it at all.

Mrs. Hou said, “You don’t have to believe me. Men are too slow-witted when it comes to relationships. Junlai is my son and I’ve raised him for so many years, so of course I know what he’s thinking.”

Mr. Hou sighed softly and turned to walk into the room.

Hou Xiaoyu, who sat on the sofa, said, “Mom, I think you’re right.”

Hou Xiaoyu’s expression turned serious as she continued, “Mom, the most important thing now is to make Jian Xing’er like my brother again.”

Mrs. Hou said, “That’s right.”

Hou Xiaoyu frowned and said, “But this is very difficult.”

Mrs. Hou also said solemnly, “Even if it’s difficult, we have to think of a way to prevent Jian Xing’er from leaving our house.”

Hou Xiaoyu nodded.

Mrs. Hou said worriedly, “If you want Jian Xing’er to like your brother again, the first thing you have to do is to chase away the pretty boy beside Jian Xing’er. The pretty boy is so handsome and super rich, so Jian Xing’er might have already fallen for him.”

When she heard her mother mention Shangguan Ding, Hou Xiaoyu’s expression became awkward.

Although Hou Xiaoyu had only seen Shangguan Ding a few times, she was mesmerized by him every time she saw him.

Hou Xiaoyu said confidently, “Mom, let me do this!”

Mrs. Hou looked at Hou Xiaoyu in confusion and said, “Can you do it?”

Hou Xiaoyu said proudly, “Of course!”

Mrs. Hou nodded and said, “Alright, you do it!”

…

When Jian Xing’er returned home, she lay down and fell asleep.

Jian Xing’er had a dream. In the dream, Jian Xing’er saw her parents and brother.

Jian Xing’er’s parents and brother shouted in pain in the flames while calling for Jian Xing’er. Jian Xing’er was very flustered. She wanted to save her parents and brother, but she couldn’t get close. She could only watch her parents and brother suffer in the flames.

Jian Xing’er woke up.

When she opened her eyes, she realized that it was already the next morning.

The sunlight shone into the house, making people feel warm.

When Jian Xing’er woke up, she realized that the pillow was wet. She didn’t know if it was from tears or sweat.

After walking to the window, Jian Xing’er looked out and took a deep breath. She instantly felt much more refreshed.

Shangguan Ding sat in the courtyard as he drank the red wine in his hand elegantly. His handsome face made one’s imagination run wild.

Jian Xing’er looked away.

Men who were too handsome were all scumbags.

Jian Xing’er felt that what he said made sense.

Fortunately, Jian Xing’er had very good self-control. Otherwise, she might have already pounced into Shangguan Ding’s arms.

At this moment, the door opened and Hou Xiaoyu walked in.

Hou Xiaoyu was wearing a white dress and light makeup, with her hair in a simple ponytail. She had obviously dressed up.

In addition, Hou Xiaoyu was holding a small bag.

After entering, Hou Xiaoyu saw Shangguan Ding sitting not far away and was instantly mesmerized. As she looked at him infatuatedly, she almost drooled.

Hou Xiaoyu looked very amused.

When Shangguan Ding saw Hou Xiaoyu’s expression, he couldn’t help but laugh.

Hearing the laughter, Hou Xiaoyu came back to her senses.

Hou Xiaoyu smiled as she said, “Mr. Shangguan, you’re so handsome. You’re the most handsome man I’ve seen in so many years.”

Shangguan Ding said playfully, “Oh really? Is that so?”

Hou Xiaoyu handed the bag in her hand to Shangguan Ding as she said, “Of course, Mr. Shangguan. This is a gift I bought for you.”

After Shangguan Ding took a look, he said, “Thank you. Come here and send this into the house.”

Seeing that Shangguan Ding had accepted the gift, Hou Xiaoyu thought that she had succeeded and said with a smile, “Mr. Shangguan, can I invite you to dine with me? I hope you can do me the honor. I’ve already booked a place. We can go over immediately.”

Shangguan Ding said playfully, “You want to woo me?”

Hou Xiaoyu nodded and said, “Yes! I fell for you the first time I saw you! If we can be together, I’m even willing to live a few decades less!”

Shangguan Ding laughed again.

Hou Xiaoyu was a little embarrassed.

As Jian Xing’er stood in front of the window, she couldn’t help but laugh.

Shangguan Ding was clearly toying with Hou Xiaoyu.

Shangguan Ding was the young master of the Shangguan family and had high standards. Even if he wanted to fool round, he wouldn’t fancy a woman like Hou Xiaoyu.

Shangguan Ding said with a smile, “Sorry, I can only disappoint you! I’m already your sister-in-law’s man!”
