The second day of the New Year.

Media captured the president of Huo Corporation leaving Anzhen Children's Hospital with an icy expression.

Rumors suggested it was due to recent stock fluctuations in the Huo Group, causing shareholders to put pressure on Huo Xiaozheng.

Meanwhile, the real culprit was currently curled up on Huo Yueze's hospital bed, earnestly drawing a portrait of the sleeping Huo Yueze.

It was just after ten in the morning.

Huo Jing opened the door to find Huo Guining bathed in the warm winter sunlight, sketching with a devout expression.

The subject of the drawing lay on the bed, his curly hair a mess, a white bandage on his head, mouth agape, and drooling.

The sound of the door opening caught Huo Guining's attention.

She called out softly, "Auntie!"

Huo Jing glanced at her eye-searing nephew, then picked up Huo Guining and placed her on the sofa.

"Let auntie take a look, are you alright?"

When the incident with Huo Guining occurred, Huo Jing had been attending an event abroad.

It wasn't until after the event that she saw the news about Huo Guining's situation.

So, as soon as she got off the plane, she rushed to the hospital to visit Huo Guining.

Huo Jing's expression still held traces of fatigue, with some bloodshot veins visible in her eyes.

Huo Guining smiled softly, "I'm fine, really."

She looked bright and adorable, causing Huo Jing's worried heart to settle.

"What about Huo Yueze? What exactly happened yesterday? I was scared to death."

Huo Jing asked about Huo Yueze's condition, but her eyes didn't want to fall on him at all, subtly showing some disdain.

Huo Guining didn't notice.

She recounted everything to Huo Jing, from how she bit through the tape after being kidnapped to how Huo Yueze helped her escape.

"I was really scared at first. But after brother came, I wasn't scared at all!"

Huo Jing felt somewhat emotional.

"You're so brave!" Huo Jing praised, then glanced towards Huo Yueze again: "Huo Yueze is quite gutsy too!"

Huo Guining giggled, continuously praising Huo Yueze until Huo Jing started to feel a bit uneasy.

"Ning Ning, look, this is the gift auntie brought back for you from Country F."

Huo Jing handed her a large blue gift box.

The box was big, too large for Huo Guining's small hands to hold: "What is it, auntie?"

Huo Jing smiled, gesturing for her to open it.

Huo Guining did as told.

Lifting the lid of the gift box and tearing away the outer wrapping paper, a red and white long dress appeared before her.

"Wow..." Huo Guining couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

It was the same style as the blood-red dress she had drawn for Huo Jing last time.

"Auntie! You made it real!" Huo Guining's eyes sparkled.

Her smile was so infectious that Huo Jing couldn't help but smile too. "To be precise, auntie didn't make it, auntie had someone else make it. They made two."
