Super Sweet, 100\% Honeymoon-Chapter 559: The Proposal Is a Big Deal

"I said you’re not going." The man with the cold, handsome face glared at Xiyan, his possessiveness evident. "You’re not allowed to go either."

He would arrange for his subordinates to visit that man in the hospital.

"But he really helped me. Isn’t it only fair to thank him in person?" After saying that, Xiyan added, "If you won’t go, it means you don’t really care about me."

Ou Jue stared speechlessly at the girl in his arms.

What kind of twisted logic was this?

Xiyan looked hurt. "Fine, I get it... You don’t need to go. Anyway, whether I feel hurt or not clearly doesn’t matter to you—you don’t care at all."

"Xia Xiyan!" Ou Jue gritted his teeth.

Was this damned woman a torturer in her past life? She always knew how to strike right at his weak spots—aiming with precision and ruthlessness.

How could he not care?

He cared more than anything.

Ou Jue lowered his head and captured Xiyan’s lips, grinding and nibbling on them relentlessly. "Wait for me—I’ll come get you tomorrow." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

In Country S.

The surgery had been very successful.

Qiao Qianmo woke up to find it was already evening in the local time zone.

She stared blankly at the ceiling, and her first thought was: Where’s Ou Jue?

Hadn’t Susan threatened the Ou Family, demanding to see Ou Jue as soon as the surgery ended?

Her eyes anxiously scanned the room for that arrogant figure.

"Momo’s awake?"

Qiao Qianmo’s gaze froze on the woman sitting on the sofa nearby. Her expression shifted. "Aunt..."

Ou Jue’s mother put down the magazine in her hands. "How are you feeling now?"

Why was Aunt here...

Where was Ou Jue?

Nearby, Susan had woken up slightly earlier than Qiao Qianmo. Seeing her dazed expression, Susan’s mind pieced things together.

She deliberately put on a stern face. "Mrs. Ou."

Ou Jue’s mother turned immediately and looked at Susan. "Ms. Susan, are you feeling unwell? I’ll call the doctor right away."

"That won’t be necessary." Susan’s expression was sour. Riding on the Ou Family’s respect for Mr. Ling—and bolstered by her current standing—her tone was haughty. "You promised me back then that as soon as the surgery was over, we would see that boy Ou Jue. And now what? Are you stalling me? Are you treating my words as worthless?!"

Her tone wasn’t friendly at all.

Ou Jue’s mother had once been a celebrated socialite in her youth. Though mental health issues had made her temperament somewhat extreme later on, most of the time, she remained an understanding and well-mannered woman.

She had never been scolded so directly before.

Nonetheless, Ou Jue’s mother smiled gently and adjusted Susan’s blanket. "Ms. Susan, you are Mr. Ling’s most cherished person. How could we possibly disregard you? Although Little Jue hasn’t come, didn’t I come here to represent him?"

Out of the corner of her eye, Susan caught sight of Qiao Qianmo’s disappointed expression. Despite this, her own demeanor remained icy toward Ou Jue’s mother. "I heard that boy has a closer relationship with my husband. And now this? He’s abandoned everything here just to spend time with a girl for her birthday?!"

"A birthday may be a small matter, but a proposal is a major one." While Ou Jue’s mother continued to treat Susan with polite respect, her tone held steady and calm. "After all, for Little Jue, this is a once-in-a-lifetime event."

A... proposal?

Qiao Qianmo’s face shot up abruptly. "Aunt, Ou Jue... proposed to Xiyan?"

Ou Jue’s mother nodded.

To her, what mattered most was a person’s character.

After all they had been through, Xiyan’s character was crystal clear to Ou Jue’s mother.

That girl was wonderful.

Moreover, Susan had now been found.

Since she herself was childless...

With Little Jue and Xiyan together, what reason did she have to object?

Qiao Qianmo’s hand clenched tightly into a fist beneath the blanket, her face pale as a sheet.
