Mu Qian didn't know how busy he was, but she didn't pay attention because all her attention was on the house opposite.
For three consecutive days, when the hour hand points to three in the morning, a window in the opposite room will light up on time, and then go out quietly thirty minutes later.
Like a ritual, it happens quietly every day at three o'clock in the morning when everything is quiet.
Mu Qian was certain that there must be some secrets hidden in that house.
But getting into that house won't happen overnight. After Lin Su sent her home last time, he hasn't contacted her yet.
Mu Qian knew she couldn't be impatient.
For several days, she just stayed quietly in Huo Jinxi's house. She was only responsible for picking up Huo Qiran and sorting out the information at hand. By the way, she had a thorough understanding of Lin Su's daily life next door, and perfectly avoided him when going in and out.
At noon that day, Mu Qian woke up from her nap and suddenly received a call asking her to have dinner.
Since returning to Tongcheng, she has met very few people. She only exchanged a few numbers at the engagement ceremony between Shen Yan and Ji Suifeng. Cheng Sheng, who invited her to dinner today, was one of her dance partners that day.
Expanding her social circle is a beneficial and harmless thing for Mu Qian, so she readily accepted the invitation.
After entrusting the driver with the task of picking up Huo Qiran from school, Mu Qian finished putting on makeup and was ready to go out.
As soon as she reached the stairs, she heard the sound of the door opening and closing downstairs. Mu Qian was about to go downstairs to take a look when she suddenly heard a young woman's voice.
"Is this Mr. Huo's home?" The woman's voice sounded very gentle, "It's very beautiful."
"Miss Su, please sit down." Huo Jinxi's cold voice came next.
Mu Qian's footsteps paused at the entrance of the stairs, and her brain received two messages——
First, Huo Jinxi is back;
Second, Huo Jinxi brought a woman back.
Perhaps it was the reporter's instinct. At that moment, Mu Qian actually got a little excited, and then she leaned against the stairs and listened quietly to what was going on downstairs.
"I'm really sorry," said Miss Su, "I took Mr. Huo's flight back to China and came to your home to bother me. My aunt said she would pick me up soon and would not disturb Mr. Huo for too long."
It turns out that Huo Jinxi didn't come home for three days and actually went abroad.
Mu Qian couldn't help but laugh in her heart. He knew that she would stay here for the next few days, so he felt comfortable leaving his son behind?
"It doesn't matter." Huo Jinxi's voice remained the same as before, without any ups and downs of emotions, not even a single unnecessary word.
Miss Su laughed, and then said: "I met Mrs. Huo last time at my aunt's house. At that time, she said she wanted to introduce us to her, but she never had the chance. This time, it was a coincidence."
Hearing this, Mu Qian probably understood something. This Miss Su was probably someone else looking for a blind date for Huo Jinxi, and by "coincidence" she was arranged to board Huo Jinxi's plane back to China.
But, someone like Huo Jinxi actually needs a blind date?
Mu Qian was about to laugh when her cell phone suddenly rang.
The room suddenly became quiet, and the people who were chatting downstairs also became quiet.
Although Mu Qian originally intended to eavesdrop, it didn't matter if he was exposed. He picked up the phone and walked downstairs calmly.
In the living room, Huo Jinxi was sitting on the sofa with his back to her. He heard the footsteps but still didn't look back. Miss Su, on the other hand, looked at Mu Qian in shock, but she was our lady after all, so she quickly looked back.
Shenlai smiled and nodded to Mu Qian.
"Hello." Mu Qian greeted her, "I'm sorry to disturb the chat between you two. I'll leave now."
Mu Qian went downstairs, and it wasn't until she appeared in sight that Huo Jinxi finally looked at her.
Even when facing the blind date introduced by his elders, this man still looked cold and distant. His suit was straight, the threads were as new, he was ascetic and solemn.
As for Mu Qian, he didn't even bother to give a response.
Miss Su, on the other hand, was fresh and gentle, wearing a decent windbreaker and skirt, with a very friendly smile, and her temperament was inexplicably familiar.
Mu Qian soon remembered - Ye Jingwei, Huo Jinxi's former girlfriend.
From this point of view, this Miss Su should be a good match for Huo Jinxi.
Realizing this, Mu Qian's smile became even brighter, "Don't get me wrong, I am the nanny of this family, but I have a day off tonight, so I won't disturb you and Mr. Huo."
After Mu Qian finished speaking, she looked at Huo Jinxi with a smile and walked towards the door obediently.
Huo Jinxi watched her back disappear from the door, and looked away, his eyes still calm and unwavering.
"This lady is so beautiful." Su Heng said with a smile, "It's also really interesting. Why did she say she was a nanny?"
Huo Jinxi took out the cigarette and asked Su Heng for his opinion before lighting it. He took a puff and then slowly said: "If she says yes, that's good."
