What to Do If I Become the Villain's Daughter

Huo Guining's eyes lit up: "Dad!"

Huo Xiaozheng steadied his breathing, walking towards her step by step.

Huo Yueze consciously made room at the bedside.

"Hungry, aren't you?" Huo Xiaozheng skilfully opened the small dining table on the hospital bed, lifting the lid off the food container, releasing an appetizing aroma.

"Wow, it smells so good!"

Huo Xiaozheng raised the head of the bed, his smile gentle: "Let Dad let it cool down for a bit, and you can eat it in a moment."

Huo Xiaozheng expertly stirred the soup with a spoon, a scene he had rehearsed countless times in his mind over the past week.

The difference was, the food in his hand finally had an owner.

"Dad, your collar..." There was a splash of crimson on Huo Xiaozheng's blue shirt, looking very conspicuous.

Huo Xiaozheng nonchalantly wiped it off with a wet tissue, calmly saying: "I must have brushed against something by accident. The porridge is ready, come, open your mouth..."

Huo Guining obediently opened her mouth, but Huo Xiaozheng was too calm, calm to the point of making her uneasy.

She swallowed the porridge in her hand, weakly asking: "Dad, where did you just go?"

Huo Xiaozheng's movements paused for a moment, his tone unchanged: "There was something at the company, I went to take care of it."

Huo Guining wanted to ask more.

But Huo Xiaozheng's expression suddenly changed, his tone a little urgent: "What's wrong, is your chest hurting?"

Huo Guining hurriedly said: "No, I'm not feeling unwell now..."

Huo Yueze cut in: "Sister, you can't lie. You just said your head still felt a little dizzy..."

Huo Guining glanced at Huo Xiaozheng uneasily: "That's because I've been lying down for so long..."

Huo Xiaozheng's expression didn't change, continuing to feed her the porridge one spoonful at a time.

"Dad, I'm full."

After lying down for so long, it seemed her stomach had shrunk, as she felt full after just a small bowl.

Huo Xiaozheng calmly put away the utensils, handing them to Huo Yueze: "Yueze, take the trash with you when you leave."

Huo Yueze: "I'm not..."

Catching sight of Huo Xiaozheng's expression, Huo Yueze swallowed his words: "Okay, I should be heading home. Goodbye, sister. Goodbye, uncle!"

With that, he swiftly left the hospital room with the trash and his backpack.

Huo Guining: ...

"Nining."

"Yes!" Huo Guining reflexively replied.

Huo Xiaozheng's demeanor was off, he was usually a man who paid great attention to his appearance, but now, his high-end tailored suit was a little crumpled, and his bangs were disheveled.

Huo Guining timidly said: "Dad, what's wrong?"

"Are you afraid of Jiang Suyuan and Qin Zhiyi?"

Huo Guining's heart skipped a beat, her face turning pale, with a hint of panic flashing in her eyes.

"No... ah..."

Huo Guining forced a laugh.

"Nining, don't worry, Dad has taken care of Jiang Suyuan and Qin Zhiyi."
