"To cure his sickness, of course… He told me that he hasn't been feeling well . I wonder if it's because of the medication he took previously, so we made plans to meet up today . Anyways, don't worry about me . If I get tired, I'll take a nap at the hospital during my lunch break . Let's not talk about me though, if you get tired while working at the company, get some rest . You stayed up so late with me last night…"
"Okay . " Qin Chu nodded .
Huo Mian stared at her husband for a while before slowly opening her mouth, "Honey… why do you have a gun?"
Qin Chu lifted his head slowly and looked at Huo Mian as he said, word for word, "There's a lot of shootings in the United States, and the area I lived in wasn't that peaceful, and I was robbed by some people… Later, to protect myself, I bought a handgun, since it's legal to carry arms there . I got used to it and didn't feel safe when I came back to the country, so I asked Rick to get me one . "
"Oh…" Huo Mian nodded .
"Why, are you scared?"
"No, I was worried that something would happen to you… I was a bit surprised, that's all . "
"Don't worry, nothing will happen to me," Qin Chu consoled her .
"Honey… you lived a hard life in the States, right?"
Huo Mian never asked how Qin Chu was during his years studying abroad .
She didn't dare to think about it, because she knew that Qin Chu wasn't a second-generation heir who only partied and had fun in the States .
He was Asian and lived there for 7 years, without friends or family . He was probably extremely lonely .
Qin Chu probably understated things when he told her he was once robbed…
However, Huo Mian had the feeling that it was a very unhappy memory .
The truth was, Qin Chu was only 20 years old when he first arrived in the United States .
He was small and naïve, so being bullied was unavoidable .
He was small and naïve, so being bullied was unavoidable .
Once, after night prep, he was robbed by a couple of men driving a pickup truck on his way home .
To be honest, Qin Chu was talented and was already a Taekwondo master in China .
However, none of that mattered there, because they had guns . Therefore, if you dared to challenge them, they could shoot you in the blink of an eye .
Therefore, after beating him up, the men stole all his money…
In the end, he had to choke back his pain, call the ambulance, and go to the hospital .
Once he arrived at the hospital, the doctor told him that he broke three left ribs .
He was alone in a foreign country, without his parents, or Huo Mian…
That was how he lived those days .
That was how he lived those days .
Later, he bought a gun at a black market and became even more indifferent…
However, no one bullied him, ever again… Later, by chance, he accidentally saved the head of a mafia during a gang breakout .
That man was Rick's older brother, Lino . Therefore, to this day, Rick's family still felt indebted to Qin Chu .
However, he never mentioned these unhappy, dark memories to Huo Mian .
He didn't want her to worry or be sad for him…
Huo Mian was a smart woman, so she could tell that Qin Chu was just hiding his sadness .
"Honey… no one will bully you again, I'll protect you," Huo Mian looked at Qin Chu and said, her voice breaking .
Tears began falling out of Huo Mian's eyes again…
"Okay… from now on, you have to take care of me, Dr . Huo . " Qin Chu smiled .
Tears began falling out of Huo Mian's eyes again…
"Okay… from now on, you have to take care of me, Dr . Huo . " Qin Chu smiled .
Huo Mian, on the other hand, felt more heartbroken than ever…
After breakfast, Qin Chu drove Huo Mian to South Side before heading to work himself .
After Huo Mian got to her office, her eyes felt dry, so she put some eyedrops in them .
That's when Ni Yang walked into her office . He didn't even knock, basically appearing out of nowhere .
"Sister Mian . "
"You little brat, you scared me . why didn't you knock?" Huo Mian put down the eyedrops in her hand and looked at Ni Yang .
"I didn't want other people to know I'm here, the nurses here are really annoying… I'm scared that they will ask me for autographs or photos . " Ni Yang smiled .
"You didn't sleep well last night? Why are your eyes so red?" Ni Yang was shocked to see Huo Mian's red-shot rabbit eyes .
