Amnesiac Fiancé Married Another, So I Married His Brother - Chapter 64

There’s reasonable suspicion that this reporter was planted by someone else.

How could she ask such a question?

Huo Xuanye and Huo Zhenzhou simultaneously glanced at the nameplate in front of the reporter, silently noting which media outlet she belonged to.

Li Su was still sitting in a wheelchair at the moment, but the trial had been broadcast live, they should all have seen that she could now stand.

Li Su rested her hands on her lap, her eyes filled with sorrow and defiance. “To be honest, right after the injury, I did consider that question. It hurt so much. The pain was constant. I could only sleep after taking medication, and sometimes I’d wake up from the pain.”

Tears welled up in her eyes, but she stubbornly refused to let them fall. “But then I thought about how I’d been dancing since childhood, how much sweat I’d poured into it, how I’d persevered day after day. I wouldn’t be defeated so easily.”

“I love dance. I’m willing to devote my entire life to it. I won’t give up on what I love!”

Everyone present was deeply moved by her words.

Huo Xuanye gripped the wheelchair tightly.

His heart ached for his wife!!!

Another reporter asked, “Then, Li Su, when do you plan to return to the stage?”

Li Su blinked back her tears and smiled brightly, though with a hint of melancholy. “I’d love to return as soon as possible, but unfortunately, my legs haven’t fully recovered yet. I’ll strictly follow the doctor’s orders and focus on rehabilitation. I look forward to the day I can stand on stage again.”

The reporter continued, “Your fans are very concerned about your current condition. Do you have anything you’d like to say to them?”

Li Su made a finger heart at the camera. “Thank you all for your concern. Your support gives me even more motivation.”

Huo Xuanye politely interjected, “Everyone, my wife is very tired. Let’s end the interview here.”

“My brother is here, if you have any questions for him, feel free to ask!”

Huo Zhenzhou, standing nearby: “…”

Brilliant.

Throwing his own brother under the bus.

The reporters immediately turned their microphones and cameras toward Huo Zhenzhou.

Huo Xuanye wasted no time pushing the wheelchair away.

Li Chen cast a cold glance at Huo Zhenzhou, now surrounded by reporters, smirked, and walked off without a second thought.

“President Huo, why did you suddenly marry someone else?”

“President Huo, your ex-fiancée married your younger brother. How do you feel about that?”

“President Huo, did you divorce because of Li Su?”

Huo Zhenzhou didn’t answer a single question. Zhuo Yang rushed over and shielded him as they made their escape.

Once in the car, Huo Zhenzhou loosened his tie. Ever since regaining his memories, he’d been wanting to find time to talk to Li Su alone.

But lately, either Di Fei’er was with her, or Huo Xuanye was.

Huo Xuanye guarded Li Su like a fortress, leaving no opportunity for them to be alone.

That night, after her shower, Li Su lay in bed watching a dance program.

Today was a good day.

Zhou Zhanpeng had been sentenced to life in prison.

Her mood was excellent.

It was also the day her favorite show aired.

She had originally been invited to participate, but her injury had prevented her from going.

Li Su watched with rapt attention.

She didn’t even notice when Huo Xuanye finished his shower, walked to the bedside shirtless, and stood there.

Huo Xuanye’s lips twitched.

Great.

Just great.

His brother had invited someone into their home, and now, forget competing for her attention, Li Su spent the most time with Di Fei’er, chatting with her the most.

Even now, her focus was entirely on the TV.

She didn’t spare him a single glance.

Huo Xuanye climbed onto the bed, quietly slipping his arm behind Li Su and cradling her head against his chest, then took the tablet from her hands.

Perfect!

Li Su didn’t say a word, just slid her hands under the blanket and gave him a feel.

Bare.

The post-shower texture was quite nice.

She patted his waist. “No clothes?”

Huo Xuanye smirked mischievously. “Keep going lower and see if I’m wearing pants.”

“Pervert!”

“How is it perverted to touch your own husband?”

“I meant you.”

“Ohhh~” Huo Xuanye drew out the syllable. “Wouldn’t it be worse if I didn’t lust after my wife and went after someone else?”

Li Su shot him a glance. “Stop fooling around.”

What was he even doing?

Flirting and teasing were perfectly normal between a married couple!

On the screen, the performer finished their act, and the host took the stage with a microphone.

As they chatted, the conversation turned to Li Su.

The host asked Lin Yaoqing if she had gone to visit Li Su.

Lin Yaoqing, still catching her breath from dancing, spoke into the mic, “I really, really wanted to see her, truly, so much. But I’ve been swamped with work lately and haven’t had the time.”

“But I’ve been following the trial of her case. Today, the criminal was sentenced to life in prison, so I think she must be in a good mood. I’d like to invite her to come watch our performance live next week. I hope seeing us on stage will inspire her.”

Lin Yaoqing and Li Su had trained under the same teacher as children, and that teacher often pitted them against each other.

As a result, they had developed a tacitly competitive relationship since childhood.

Now, because of Li Su’s injury, many of the opportunities that would have gone to her had instead gone to Lin Yaoqing.

That’s why Lin Yaoqing kept emphasizing how busy she was.

“Are you going?” Huo Xuanye asked softly.

“Of course!”

“I think… maybe you shouldn’t…” Huo Xuanye was worried it might upset her.

Seeing her former rival dancing on stage while she was still recovering, only able to perform simple movements, it might be hard to take.

Li Su turned her head. “Huo Xuanye, ever since I got injured, you’ve been by my side through my recovery. You’ve seen how I’ve endured and persevered. Do you still think I’m fragile?”

Huo Xuanye turned off the tablet and set it aside. “You’re not! I am. I’m just afraid…”

Li Su replied casually, “It’s not like I need you to go with me.”

“Then who are you planning to take? My brother? Now that he’s regained his memory, he’s willing to travel everywhere with you, is that it?!”

“Fine! I’ll go with you! I’ll go anywhere with you!”

Huo Xuanye rolled over and pulled her into his arms, pinching her chin. “Wife, look into my eyes and promise me you won’t ask him to go with you.”

Li Su met his gaze. “What are you thinking? I meant Teacher Di.”

“Oh.”

“Ohhh~”

“Teacher Di…”

“I thought…”

Huo Xuanye belatedly realized how worked up he’d gotten.

He loosened his grip. “Of course Teacher Di can go with you. But I’m coming too. We’ll all go together.”

“Sure.” Li Su agreed readily.

Huo Xuanye’s eyes grew hazy as he drawled, “Baby.”

Li Su blinked. “Hmm?”

“It’s been a week since we last…” Huo Xuanye instantly switched to whiny mode, nuzzling against her neck and giving a suggestive little thrust of his hips. “Mmm~”

“The criminal got sentenced today. Shouldn’t we celebrate a little?”

Li Su understood immediately.

Since when did Huo Xuanye become so reserved?

Using “mm-hmm” to express himself.

So adorable.

Before she could respond, Huo Xuanye’s kiss landed on her cheek.

She didn’t refuse, and his scorching kisses trailed downward from her cheek.

The room brimmed with amorous tenderness.

In stark contrast was another room, cold and desolate.
