Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 1277 - 1255: Ya Chen’s Secret 1
Huo Zhenyang lowered his face to kiss away the remaining tears on her face, lifted his fingertip, and rubbed her rosy nose:
"Being willful is your duty, and allowing you to be willful is my responsibility."
He never thought about her being someone strong.
In this world, there are too many strong men and women; there’s no need for her to be one.
No matter how others see her, in his eyes, her duty in this life is to be a delicate flower under his wings, and that’s more than enough.
Seeing her finally clear up, feeling better, Huo Zhenyang held her hand and walked toward the car.
Jiayi thought they were going back to the Chu Family. When the car was about to stop, she looked out the window and saw a seven-star hotel in the city.
She was surprised, "What are we doing here?"
He held her hand and got out of the car, walking into the hotel.
In the capital of S Country, the highest-grade hotel should’ve been bustling with guests.
At this moment, however, there were only a few service staff on duty in the lobby, with no guests in sight.
It was as if the place had been cleared, waiting for the two of them to arrive.
The hotel manager, who had been waiting with service staff, stood at the door. Seeing the man’s arrival, his eyes lit up, and he hurried to greet:
"Good day, Mr. Huo, good day, Mrs. Huo. The top floor has been arranged and is ready for you to check in at any time."
Check-in?
Jiayi suspiciously lifted her head and saw a hint of mischief in his otherwise serious eyes.
He leaned down, gently biting her ear beside her neck, speaking in a low, deep voice:
"I’ve spoken to your dad. We won’t go back today. The doctor said you were frightened, and it’s best to relax a bit."
The hotel manager discreetly coughed twice and stepped forward to lower his voice, "All floors above the guestrooms have been reserved for Mr. Huo, that is, from the eighteenth floor up, basically no one is present. Rest assured, it’s very quiet."
Immediately, two red clouds flew up her pink cheeks, feeling as if she’d been foolishly led into a wolf’s den.
Even booking out a hotel—
How is it for her to relax? Clearly, it’s for him to relax.
Seeing so many people in front of her felt as if they were preparing to deliver her to the altar of some beast, making her blush fiercely!
Biting her neat, white little teeth, she withdrew her hand from his palm, "I want to go back..."
The lobby manager was dumbfounded when he saw the leading lady run off, "Mr. Huo, this—"
Huo Zhenyang frowned, caught up with two steps, picked her up horizontally, and before the person in his arms could struggle, headed to the elevator in full view.

Meanwhile.
After Chu Yanhan and Jiayi left, the hospital room was much quieter.
Chu Xinyue hugged her knees, thinking about what Dad had just said, remaining silent in a daze.
While she was fighting death in the operating room, Ya Chen seemed indifferent and even left?
As she was daydreaming, a guard knocked and came in to greet, "The princess has awakened, feel free to let me know if anything is needed."
Chu Xinyue nodded, and as he was about to leave, she instinctively stopped him, "What about him?"
The guard certainly understood who "he" was, answered, "His Highness is at the Royal Office Building, dealing with TM Organization affairs."
She felt relieved, "Were those people all caught?"
"Yes, they were arrested on the morning after your surgery, except for the three who were shot dead on the spot, the rest were sent to the police, and His Highness rushed to handle it right away."
She breathed a sigh of relief.
Perhaps he wasn’t being as indifferent as Dad said, but rather handling urgent affairs.
Thinking this way, her mood lightened, showing a faint glow on her cheeks, unlike her previous dejection.
The guard noticed her change in mood and said, "His Highness said before he left that he’d come to the hospital after handling the matters, but didn’t specify when, Princess should rest first."
Chu Xinyue nodded, "Mm, I know, you may leave."
The guard thought she had just woken up and would naturally be especially eager to see His Highness, so he tentatively asked, "Do you want me to call His Highness, telling him you’re awake and asking him to come to the hospital as soon as possible?"
She instinctively blurted out, "No need."
The guard left.
Although she didn’t have the guard inform him of her waking, Chu Xinyue still occasionally glanced toward the door.
Deep inside, she still hoped he would suddenly appear.
Even though she had told herself he was genuinely handling serious affairs.
In the past, she didn’t know, making a fuss wasn’t a big deal, but now knowing it, she shouldn’t hold him back; she should let him focus on work.
But in her heart, she still hoped he could be with her at this time, even if it was just to see her for a moment.
...
Unknowingly, it became nighttime.
In the deep night, the doctor had come to check her wound, gave an injection, and left.
Today’s wound didn’t hurt as much, and she hugged her knees, sitting on the bed in a daze.
"Princess, it’s time to rest." The dedicated caregiver saw that she showed no sign of sleeping and advised.
"It’s okay. You go rest first, I’ll call you if I need anything." Chu Xinyue sent off the caregiver.
The night grew deeper.
In the corridor, the guard responsible for 24-hour surveillance saw the light in the hospital room still on, understanding the reason for her not sleeping, couldn’t help but knocked on the door, poking his head in, "His Highness may not come today, princess should sleep first."
She responded with a sound, but still remained unmoved as if like a deep well.
The clock continued to move forward, finally, fatigue hit, and unable to stay awake, she slumped onto the bed and dozed off.
She wasn’t sure how long she had slept before hearing the door creak lightly.
There seemed to be faint voices, one coming from the duty guard, and the other—
She suddenly opened her sleepy eyes and saw Ya Chen standing at the door.
Thinking she was dreaming, she rubbed her eyes hard and clearly saw that he really came.
Seeing she was asleep, he seemed ready to leave, giving instructions to the guard before leaving.
The guard seeing her awake, called out, "Princess."
Ya Chen turned back, gazed into the room, his eyes dark and fathomless as a black hole, the same as always, seeming capable of devouring people.
The guard tactfully withdrew and closed the door.
Chu Xinyue looked at him, "Didn’t expect you’d come while being so busy."
Ya Chen, holding a cane, slowly walked back into the room, indifferent, "The guard called to say you were awake."
The words once again widened the gap between them.
Meaning that if the guard hadn’t called to report her awakening, he wouldn’t have come.
She was accustomed to his aloofness and closeness, didn’t think much of it.
Ya Chen’s breath was slightly chilly, "The guard said you waited a whole day, eventually falling asleep, aren’t you afraid of waiting in vain?"
She lightly curved her lips, "I’m not afraid. I felt like you would definitely come."
Ya Chen’s expression tightened, his tone somewhat icy, "Don’t have too high expectations of me. What your father said is not wrong. I’m not a qualified good husband."
She was startled.
It must’ve been that the guard at the door heard Chu Yanhan’s complaint earlier this morning and told him.
After a pause, she said, "But you came with the police and took risks to save me. Are you going to say again that you were just afraid that if I died, it would be hard to explain to the public? If so, there was no need for you to personally intervene and lead such a huge operation."
