Because of the warm color between her brows, Huo Jinxi stayed still for a long time, and then he could hardly restrain himself and lowered his head to kiss her.
Although Mu Qian drank a lot, she was still sober. When she saw him lowering his head, she turned around and hid behind him.
Huo Jinxi jumped away, but there was no reaction on his face. He just secretly stretched out his hand and held her tightly.
This scene fell in the eyes of everyone in the restaurant, which was undoubtedly another proof of the affection and relationship between the two people. For a moment, everyone seemed to have a clear judgment on what kind of existence Mu Qian was in this family.
No matter how much dissatisfaction and reluctance there is, the facts are ultimately before our eyes.
It was past nine o'clock when the family banquet ended, and the remaining entertainment programs such as moon viewing and lantern viewing were just based on everyone's interest.
Naturally, several of Huo Jinxi's cousins were not interested in such an activity. With Huo Xiaoxiao taking the lead, they all left early together. The remaining elders stayed behind, sitting in the garden drinking tea and chatting.
As the mother of a primary school student, Mu Qian naturally had to stay with Huo Qiran and tell him some things about the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Huo Qiran listened with great interest and just begged her to talk more. Unknowingly, it was late at night.
It wasn't until Mr. Huo wanted to take a rest that everyone prepared to leave. Before leaving, they couldn't help but greet Huo Jinxi and Mu Qian, and their attitudes were gentle.
Huo Bainian was the last to leave. Before leaving, he said to Mu Qian: "Dad is very happy to know that Qi Ran is your child."
He also drank too much tonight, and now his cheeks were faintly red, and his eyes were very bright, looking straight at Mu Qian, as if he could see another person through her.
Mu Qian sighed slightly in her heart, not knowing how to respond.
"If your mother knew...she would be very happy, right?" Huo Bainian then sighed and spoke again.
"Mom has left." Mu Qian then said, "She should be peaceful and happy when she returns to my father. So, dad, you don't have to worry about her anymore."
After hearing this, Huo Bainian seemed to be stunned for a moment, and then he sighed softly, said nothing more, and got into his car with the help of the driver.
Mu Qian stood outside the car and heard that the place he told the driver to go to was still the villa outside, not the Huo family mansion.
He and Cheng Manshu, a married couple, had been entangled for half their lives, but in the end it was like a bad fate.
When a couple reaches this point, it is really hurtful to both others and themselves.
But I don’t know how many couples in this world will take such a path?
Mu Qian stood there, looking at Huo Bainian's car in a daze, when Huo Jinxi slowly walked up behind her, pulled her into his arms, lowered his head and kissed her neck.
Huo Jinxi drank a lot tonight, and after enduring it all night, they were the only two people left in the garden, and he finally no longer had to restrain himself.
His kiss was scorchingly warm, clearly indicating something to Mu Qian.
Mu Qian suddenly turned back to look at him and asked in a low voice: "Have your father and mother ever had a good relationship?"
Huo Jinxi didn't seem to expect that she would suddenly ask this question. He frowned subconsciously. After a moment of pause, he replied calmly: "No."
"Never?" Mu Qian asked.
Huo Jinxi raised his eyes and looked at her, "Never."
His eyes were cool and indifferent, and he seemed to have no unnecessary emotions when talking about such things.
Mu Qian was stunned for a moment, hesitated for a moment, and then continued: "Didn't it happen when you were a child?"
"No." Huo Jinxi still said.
Mu Qian didn't know what to say for a moment.
As the eldest young master of the Huo family, it is true that Huo Jinxi has been loved by his grandfather and uncles and aunts since he was a child, but for a child, these are not worth the love of his parents.
But if parents are not on good terms and have constant conflicts and disputes from the beginning, how can a child experience love?
So, Huo Jinxi must not have been very happy when he was young?
Probably because Huo Qiran looked so much like him. Thinking of Huo Jinxi's appearance as a child, Mu Qian unconsciously assumed Huo Qiran's current appearance. Just thinking about it, her heart suddenly ached a little.
After a moment, she stretched out her hand and hooked Huo Jinxi's neck, stood up slightly on her tiptoes, and took the initiative to kiss his lips.
She originally just wanted to kiss him, but she didn't expect that as soon as she got close to him, she would be tightly trapped by Huo Jinxi. When she wanted to leave again, she couldn't do it anymore.
On the full moon night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the sleeping Huo Qiran once again became a temporarily abandoned child.
"Is it a safe period?"
In Mu Qian's bedroom, Huo Jinxi pressed her forehead against hers and asked this question again.
Mu Qian couldn't help but gasp and glared at him, "Why are you just thinking about this? Is it so comfortable without defense?"
Huo Jinxi stretched out his hand, slowly touched her lips, and replied in a low voice: "You will know how comfortable it is."
As soon as he finished speaking, he just thought he had received her answer and sealed her lips again.
