In the second half of the night, Mu Qian did gradually calm down.
Although she wholeheartedly wanted to hear Huo Jinxi sleeping, she still couldn't wait. She was sleepy first, and she didn't care whether Huo Jinxi fell asleep or not. She wanted to sleep first anyway.
She slept until early in the morning when she was awakened by the sound of Huo Jinxi getting up. She opened her eyes and glanced at the clock beside her bed. Sure enough, it was six o'clock.
I don't know if Huo Jinxi is a robot...
She was thinking vaguely, and the robot's hand suddenly reached out to her forehead, which felt warm.
Mu Qian opened her eyes and turned around to look at him.
Huo Jinxi looked at her and ignored her, but after sensing that her body temperature was approaching normal, he turned and walked into the bathroom.
In this way, Mu Qian wasn't sleepy anymore, she just lay on the bed and listened to the sound of water coming from the bathroom.
The moment the sound of water stopped, another sound suddenly rang in the room seamlessly. Mu Qian was stunned for a moment before she realized that it was her cell phone ringing.
She took the phone and saw an unfamiliar number. After a moment of hesitation, she answered the call.
"Hello, your name is Mu Qian, right?" A middle-aged man's voice came from the other end of the phone, "This is the police station. Do you know a woman named Rong Qingzi?"
Mu Qian sat up from the bed.
Huo Jinxi came out of the bathroom and saw her listening to the phone with a serious look on her face.
Forty minutes later, Huo Jinxi and Mu Qian appeared at the police station where the call came from.
Rong Qingzi was sitting in the police station office, smoking a cigarette with her arms folded, her hair a little messy, and her skirt rumpled. Mu Qian and Huo Jinxi walked in, she just glanced at them, and
He went back to smoking his own cigarette.
Next to her, there was a Caucasian man about forty years old. He was very strong, but his face looked a bit fierce. Especially at this time, he had three bloody marks on his face scratched by his nails, and he was glaring at Rong Qingzi.
That face looked even more terrifying.
According to the description of the police who called her, the two drank together last night and became passionate after getting drunk. When they got up in the morning, Rong Qingzi immediately fell out and claimed that it was impossible for her to have a relationship with such a hateful-looking man. The two had a fierce conflict.
, the man was still worried about Rong Qingzi, but Rong Qingzi was not polite and directly used her nails to disfigure his face.
Mu Qian had no expression on her face, so she turned around and went to find a police officer to learn about the relevant procedures.
Huo Jinxi answered the phone, and Rong Qingzi had just finished smoking a cigarette when she hung up. She stubbed out the cigarette butt, looked at Huo Jinxi, and said, "We came together, that means you guys live together?"
"Are you concerned about this?" Huo Jinxi asked.
Rong Qingzi sneered, "I really don't care about this. I just think that you should have a way to get me out of this hellish place earlier than her."
Just as she finished speaking, Huo Jinxi's cell phone rang again. He glanced at her, walked to the side and answered the phone.
On the other side, Mu Qian finished understanding the procedure, turned back to the room, and came to Rong Qingzi, "Are you sure you want to accuse that man of rape?"
Hearing this, Rong Qingzi glanced at the man next to her.
Although the man didn't understand their conversation, he was obviously irritated by Rong Qingzi's look. He stood up suddenly and said, "You vicious woman! I can't possibly rape you! You were the one who took the initiative last night.
!”
He was so excited that he almost roared, but Rong Qingzi always maintained a cold and arrogant attitude, while Mu Qian was equally calm, looking at the man with teeth and claws, without a trace of emotion on his face.
"Forget it." After a while, Rong Qingzi said, "I feel like vomiting if I look at him one more time. Now I just want to get out of here quickly."
Mu Qian listened, with no emotion on her face. She walked up to the man and talked to him directly about the solution.
The man obviously believed that he was right. At this moment, Rong Qingzi said that he would not pursue the case, but he was still worried about the few blood marks on his face and refused to let it go.
After Huo Jinxi answered the phone, his face sank when he saw Mu Qian's frail body standing in front of the man, with no trace of blood on his face but still insisting on negotiating with the man.
Huo Jinxi stepped forward and pulled Mu Qian behind him, "You go out first, and I'll tell him."
After hearing this, Mu Qian turned around and left the office.
She walked straight to the door of the police station office building, breathed in the air outside, then stopped and leaned there quietly.
Not long after, Rong Qingzi walked out of it. It was obvious that a settlement had been reached and she could leave.
She walked straight out of the office building and paused slightly when she saw Mu Qian.
Mu Qian stood leaning against the wall and looked at her calmly, "I'm surprised that you would think of looking for me when something like this happened."
Rong Qingzi looked at her coldly and said, "If you find it troublesome, just think of it as the last thing you do for me. From now on, we will have nothing to do with each other and we will live our own lives."
Are you satisfied with your life?"
Mu Qian's eyes fell on her face and she didn't answer.
Rong Qingzi obviously didn't want to wait for her answer, so she turned around and walked away.
Mu Qian watched her retreat quietly, then turned her head and bumped into Huo Jinxi who was walking out.
Facing him, she quickly raised a smile and said, "We've agreed, right? Thank you."
Huo Jinxi looked at her and reached out his hand to rub the corners of her eyes.
Faced with this situation, her expression remained as calm as ever, her eyes did not even turn red, and she could even smile at him.
This is not how Mu Qian behaved in the past.
But it was precisely because she acted so calmly that the feeling of exhaustion that she was unable to do was even more obvious.
After all, she is still similar to before, even if it is only a little bit.
Huo Jinxi stared at her quietly, then suddenly lowered his head uncontrollably.
Mu Qian raised the corners of her mouth again.
"Mr. Huo, we haven't left the police station yet." She said, "Do you want to cause another adultery incident?"
Hearing her words, Huo Jinxi paused slightly, but the next moment, he still pressed his lips to hers.
This kiss was not motivated by love or lust, it seemed that he just wanted to taste how strong the bitterness in her mouth was.
But I didn't taste it.
She opened her mouth and bit him gently, as always, soft and sweet.
…
After leaving the police station, the driver first took Huo Jinxi to the company, and then took Mu Qian back to the apartment to rest.
As soon as he arrived at the company, Huo Jinxi entered the conference room. The meeting that had been postponed to wait for him was held until two o'clock in the afternoon.
When Qi Yuan delivered the ordered lunch to Huo Jinxi's office, Huo Jinxi was already on a video call with the European side.
Qi Yuan put down his lunch and was about to exit, but Huo Jinxi suddenly pressed mute, looked up at him, and said, "Call Laura and ask her to arrange a doctor to review Mu Qian's body."
