Huo Jinxi kept his word, and Mu Qian thought that he would really come up with something new tonight, but who knew that Huo Jinxi answered the phone just after taking a shower, and then changed his clothes and got ready to go out.
Mu Qian came out of the study and happened to meet him. Seeing that he had changed her clothes, she thought he was really going to take her out to go crazy. She couldn't help but stepped back defensively and asked, "Where are you going?"
Huo Jinxi glanced at her and replied, "I'm going back to the mansion."
Are you suddenly going back to the mansion at this time?
"What happened?" Mu Qian was confused.
Huo Jinxi looked calm and only replied: "What else can happen?"
As soon as these words came out, the situation became very clear——
There wasn't much else going on in the mansion. Huo Bainian and Cheng Manshu quarreled the most. But I don't know what it was about this time?
It was so late at night that even Huo Jinxi was startled, which showed that the matter must be serious.
Mu Qian followed Huo Jinxi all the way downstairs. She originally wanted to gossip, but Huo Jinxi didn't seem to want to tell her anything. He just told her to go to bed early and then went out.
Mu Qian was not familiar with the people at the Huo family's mansion, so as soon as she thought about it, she ran to the room of the aunt who was taking care of her in the old mansion, and encouraged her aunt to inquire about the situation from her sisters at the mansion.
As a result, after asking about this, Mu Qian lost a little sleep at night.
The matter is related to Rong Qingzi.
When Huo Jinxi and Mu Qian got married, Rong Qingzi knew that she was not popular in front of the Huo family, so she only drank a cup of tea before Mu Qian went out, which was regarded as sending Mu Qian off to the wedding.
Did not show up. Therefore, during the entire wedding, although no one in the Huo family was really happy, they still maintained their dignity in the end.
But that night, Cheng Manshu happened to bump into Huo Bainian and Rong Qingzi having dinner together.
The specific situation in the restaurant at that time was unknown. The servant only knew that Huo Bainian was injured when he came back. According to the content of the quarrel between the two after returning home, it was speculated that Cheng Manshu had touched Rong Qingzi in the restaurant.
Huo Bainian was injured while protecting Rong Qingzi.
After the two quarreled, Huo Bainian slammed the door and left, while Cheng Manshu swallowed half a bottle of sleeping pills.
Fortunately, there were many people at the mansion, so the consequences of Cheng Manshu swallowing the medicine should not be very serious, but the whole process can be regarded as frightening.
It took Mu Qian half the night to convince herself that this matter had nothing to do with her, and there was no need for her to lose sleep over it, and then she gradually fell asleep.
Huo Jinxi did not return to his old house that night.
Mu Qian woke up early the next morning, grabbed her phone and took a look, but there was no message.
At this time, no news is probably good news.
Mu Qian did not show excessive concern, nor did she ask Huo Jinxi anything. After breakfast, she went back to the painting hall as usual.
Probably because she didn't sleep well last night, she was not in good spirits that day. So when she saw Meng Linsheng in the painting hall again, she was stunned for two seconds before she realized what she was doing.
Meng Linsheng smiled slightly and said, "After I visited your father's paintings last time, I couldn't forget them. I can't buy the two favorites, so I'll pick another one as a consolation."
"I thought you were here to urge me to make a decision." Mu Qian responded with a smile.
Meng Linsheng raised her eyebrows slightly, "It's not a bad idea to kill two birds with one stone."
Mu Qian listened but did not answer.
Meng Linsheng suddenly noticed something, "Isn't it... that the good news waiting for me is not good?"
"I'm afraid I will really disappoint you." Mu Qian said, "Although the terms you offered are indeed very generous, I have other choices."
Meng Linsheng paused again, then smiled helplessly and said: "To be honest, I never thought that you would give me such an answer, and I confidently came to make an appointment with you...
I have prepared a meeting gift for you out of wishful thinking."
The last sentence was full of temptation. Mu Qian could hear it, but she still asked curiously: "What kind of meeting gift?"
