Chapter 509: 480

He Tiantian was in tears.

Her Brother Yingjie, whenever he was with her, always smiled tenderly, telling her stories about the things around him.

He often stole a kiss when she wasn’t paying attention and fondly pinched her nose.

Now, however, Huo Yingjie could only lie quietly on the bed, unable to smile, to speak, or to make any affectionate gestures.

He Tiantian stepped forward, firmly grasped Huo Yingjie’s hand, and choked up, "Brother Yingjie, please wake up soon. We’re all worried about you, all waiting for you."

The moment He Tiantian’s hand touched Huo Yingjie’s, the energy from the Snake King was successfully transferred to Huo Yingjie and made contact with the Little Rotating Turtle.

The Little Rotating Turtle had also suffered great trauma before and was already struggling to make Huo Yingjie move his fingers.

But with the infusion of the Snake King’s spiritual power, the Little Rotating Turtle received energy and was actually able to control its master’s hand, holding He Tiantian’s hand, so that the Little Rotating Turtle could absorb more energy.

My God!

Everyone saw Huo Yingjie tightly holding He Tiantian’s hand, and they were all dumbfounded.

Despite the physical response, Huo Yingjie still had not woken up.

At that moment, Zhao Huanhuan arrived with Doctor Zhang.

Doctor Zhang peeled open Huo Yingjie’s eyes, looked into them, then moved his fingers and nodded, "His condition has improved!"

"When can my son wake up?" Jiang Lifang asked, eager to see her son regain consciousness.

"This..." Doctor Zhang was in a difficult position because there had never been a case like Huo Yingjie’s before, and he couldn’t be completely certain.

"Ah!" Jiang Lifang sighed.

"But he has already improved, and that’s very good, isn’t it?" said Doctor Zhang, "Since the patient likes being with this young lady, let her spend more time with him."

"Thank you, Doctor," said He Tiantian gratefully. She felt that something unknown must have happened to Huo Yingjie.

Although she was very puzzled, she had encountered many strange things and had seen so much that she was no longer curious.

Now that she could feel the Little Rotating Turtle, Huo Yingjie’s awakening seemed just a matter of time.

With so many people around, she had no chance to communicate with the Little Rotating Turtle. Once they left, she would certainly ask in detail.

Jiang Lifang moved a stool over for He Tiantian so she wouldn’t have to keep bending over to hold her son’s hand.

After Doctor Zhang left, Huo Zhekun introduced everyone: "Dad, Mom, this is He Jingyu, and this is Yingjie’s fiancée He Tiantian. Jingyu, these are my parents, Yingjun is my elder brother’s child, whom you’ve already met. This is my elder brother’s daughter, Huo Yingqi."

He Jingyu stepped forward, bent slightly, and greeted, "Hello Uncle Huo, Auntie Huo."

"Good, good!" Old Master Huo stepped forward and shook hands with He Jingyu, "Thank you for all the effort you and Tiantian have put in."

"This is a hospital and it’s inconvenient to entertain guests, please excuse us. When we return, we’ll make sure to treat you properly," said Old Madam Huo, feeling a little impolite meeting the He Family in the hospital room.

He Jingyu, unconcerned, said softly, "Please don’t worry, Auntie Huo."

"Dad, Mom, let’s go back, and let Tiantian speak with Yingjie alone," suggested Huo Zhekun, "We should prepare some delicious food for Tiantian when we get back. She’s had a tough journey, she hasn’t had a chance to rest, and she still has to stay with Yingjie."

"Yes, yes," said Old Madam Huo. Since the grandson was fond of Tiantian, they liked her too.

Although it wasn’t their first meeting, Old Madam Huo liked this beautiful, understanding young lady even more.

"Tiantian, you’ve worked hard. Grandma will go back and make some delicious food for you," Old Madam Huo said cautiously, afraid that He Tiantian would look down on her grandson.

"Thank you, Grandma," He Tiantian nodded, "Dad, you can go back first, I’m fine here."

Seeing the Huo Family acting this way, He Jingyu also didn’t feel it appropriate to take his daughter away to rest.

"If you get tired, just lie down and sleep for a while," He Jingyu said, "We’ll come and relieve you later."

"Okay, I got it," He Tiantian replied, watching everyone leave.

As everyone left one by one, Huo Yingqi was the last to go and looked toward He Tiantian with a burning gaze.

"No wonder my second brother likes you so much, you really are beautiful," Huo Yingqi said, her tone a bit stiff.

This was also the first time He Tiantian had met Huo Yingqi. Thinking of the things Huo Yingqi and Zhou Yuanyuan had done before, He Tiantian held not the slightest bit of fondness for Huo Yingqi.

"Thanks!" He Tiantian smiled. Even if there were still a few tears on her face, it didn’t diminish her beauty; rather, it added a touch of pitiful charm.

"You’re not as simple as you appear on the surface," Huo Yingqi quickly judged upon seeing He Tiantian’s demeanor, no wonder Yuanyuan lost to He Tiantian.

Not as beautiful as He Tiantian, not as cunning as He Tiantian, not having the childhood friendship with the second brother.

He Tiantian chuckled, "People grow up. I hope you can also become more mature soon."

"You’re not even my second sister-in-law yet, you have no right to lecture me," Huo Yingqi said with some anger. He Tiantian was younger than her and not her second brother’s wife, so she had no right to lecture her.

He Tiantian got angry too. She had always been concerned about Huo Yingjie’s health and did not care about others. However, this presumptuous and self-righteous Huo Yingqi had been buzzing around her annoyingly.

"Haha, indeed, because you’re not worthy!" He Tiantian’s lips curved upwards, "This is a sickroom, you may leave now."

You’re not worthy?

He Tiantian actually looked down on her?

Huo Yingqi’s anger finally burst forth, indignant for her good friend and for her second brother, who had been blinded by He Tiantian, a scheming woman.

"He Tiantian, don’t get carried away with your pride!" Huo Yingqi shouted angrily, "I despise you, and I will make sure you never enter the Huo Family."

"Haha!" He Tiantian laughed crisply and coldly, "There are many who despise me. What do you count for, get lost!"

In her past life, her cautious and polite nature got her trampled on as worthless!

In this life, He Tiantian would no longer be as weak and submissive as she had been before.

She could live freely and boldly.

Because she had the means to do so.

Therefore, she didn’t need to look at anyone’s face, especially not the face of someone irrelevant like Huo Yingqi.

Little schemes, little calculations, who doesn’t know them!

"You..." Huo Yingqi wanted to continue arguing with He Tiantian and stepped forward, but was stopped by Huo Yingjun who had come back looking for her.

"Presumptuous!" Huo Yingjun shouted angrily, "That is your second brother’s fiancée, your future sister-in-law. If you’re still a member of the Huo Family, then rein in your little schemes and don’t irritate your grandparents and father."

"Big Brother!" Huo Yingqi had never seen her big brother this angry, especially not with her, his sister.

"Shut up!" Huo Yingjun scolded then turned his head to He Tiantian, "I’m sorry, Tiantian, I will take her away immediately, she won’t appear in front of you again. Please forgive her."
