Chapter 614
Wen He felt that now was the time to speak the magic words and see if they would work out .
She finally had the opportunity to speak to old Mrs Huo privately, so she looked at the elderly woman and said solemnly, "Mum, Chen was still a soldier when I first met him . I understand that the Huo family business is having issues recently, but I must admit that despite how selfish it sounds . . . I do think that he is more suitable for the army, don't you think?"
Sitting close to them was Huo Zhenning, who overheard her comment . Was she insinuating that he was hindering Chen?
Xue Yuming, on the other hand, thought that it might be an idea worth considering . With Huo Chen gone from the house, he and Yangyang would never be able to rebuild their relationship .
Wen He watched old Mrs Huo expectantly, hoping to hear the right answer from her .
"He, you speak my mind! When his eye is healed, I will reach out to my connections and get him back into the army!"
Old Mrs Huo had wanted to do so, but the Huo family business delayed things . After that, Huo Chen's loss of sight in one eye made it impossible for him to return to the military .
The old woman was delighted to have a daughter-in-law who was on her side .
She thought that Wen He had treated Chen well and even planned for his future . Such daughter-in-law was a rare find .
On the other hand, Wen He was secretly thrilled with the outcome!
All the hard work she had put into this scheme had been worth it . It was now a matter of waiting until the operation was complete . Hopefully, everything would go as planned!
The eye surgery was a major operation . When Huo Chen was finally pushed out of the operation theatre, Wen He could barely open her eyes .
He slept on the bed with a bandage over his right eye . The effect of the anaesthetics had not worn off yet, so he remained unconscious .
He was moved to an observation room, where Huo Zhenning and wife stayed for a while more before leaving with old Mrs Huo . They were all dead tired .

Wen He sat by Huo Chen's bed and watched him sleep . Despite his pale complexion, he still had a peculiar charm .
She rested her head on her chin and sighed .
"Huo Chen, buck up and don't disappoint me . My freedom depends on you . "
She blinked through her bloodshot eyes, looked at the time, and yawned . It was time to sleep .
The next day, late at night, Huo Chen finally woke up .
His acute senses informed him that there was someone else in the room . It felt like…
Wen He .

He switched on the lights by bed, feeling thirsty .
When the lights came on, Wen He woke up from her sleep on the sofa . She immediately noticed that he was reaching his hand out .
"Don't move," she said sternly . "Don't you know to call for help? There's no need to push yourself now . "
"I'm fine, it's just an eye . I can still see . "
He was not used to asking for support . Besides, he did not want to disturb her rest, considering that she probably never left his side since the surgery .
"I'm not used to your kindness . " Wen He poured him a cup of water and placed it in his hand . "How do you feel?"

"I need at least seven days to know the result . " He knew from experience in taking care of a similar patient .
"I'm asking if it hurts!"
She was not dumb . Of course they had to wait to know if it worked .
"It doesn't . " The miniscule pain he was experiencing was not worth mentioning .
"Tsk tsk, you sound like a man of steel . As expected, the military suits you more," she admitted . "I'll get the doctor, you hang in there . "
Wen He took the cup from him and left it on the table before leaving the private room .
Minutes later, a doctor arrived . Huo Chen was found to be doing perfectly fine .
Right after the examination, a servant from the Huo family arrived with dinner .
Wen He took a bowl and sat down beside the bed . "Come, let me help you . "Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
