Chapter 262: He Deserves It, It's All His Retribution

"Guess what?"

Huo Tingxiao teased her intentionally, and Mu Lan frowned.

"Boring!"

She looked away, deliberately making her tone a few degrees colder.

"If you're fine, then I'm leaving."

As soon as he heard she was about to leave, Huo Tingxiao instantly became weak.

"I pretended to be okay because I didn't want you to worry, but actually... I'm feeling pretty bad."

Mu Lan lifted her eyes, and the look she gave Huo Tingxiao was filled with more pity.

Forget it, since he was already lying in the hospital bed, she'd let him get away with a few cheap remarks.

"If you're feeling bad, then you should be more honest."

Huo Tingxiao didn't speak. Resting against the pillow, he closed his eyes for a while, and Mu Lan occasionally checked the remainder of his IV drip. When it was almost done, she pressed the call button beside the bed. A nurse came to remove the needle, but Huo Tingxiao didn't wake up, seeming to be truly uncomfortable.
