For Mu Qian, a lot has happened recently. Although her ability to withstand stress has become very strong over the years, but during this period, her life has probably been too comfortable, and she has lowered her psychological defenses to the point where she is facing difficulties.
When dealing with these things, I felt a little confused and tired for a while.
Not long after returning to the bedroom, Mu Qian fell asleep under Huo Jinxi's comfort. Huo Qiran didn't dare to disturb her when he came back from school in the afternoon and let her sleep until night.
When Mu Qian woke up again, it was already eight or nine in the evening.
But as soon as she opened her eyes, she suddenly came face to face with a pair of dark and bright eyes, right on her face, looking at her quietly.
Mu Qian was a little confused at first, but when she gradually came to her senses, she reached out her hand, took him into her arms, and wrapped him tightly.
Huo Qiran then laughed and said, "Mom, you finally woke up!"
Mu Qian hugged his warm and soft body, and after a low "hmm" she said, "If mommy doesn't wake up, will you always be here watching me?"
"I miss you." Huo Qiran said, "I want to sleep with my mother tonight."
After hearing this, Mu Qian lowered her head, kissed him on the face, and said, "Okay."
Huo Qiran had already finished washing up and originally came to say good night to Mu Qian. Unexpectedly, Mu Qian woke up just in time and agreed to sleep with him. Huo Qiran was naturally overjoyed and immediately got into bed and lay down next to Mu Qian.
In arms.
Mu Qian was hospitalized for a few days, and he saved up a lot of things to say to Mu Qian. The mother and son leaned together and chatted until Huo Qiran yawned uncontrollably, and Mu Qian whispered to coax him to sleep again.
.
Huo Qiran always went to bed on time and well-behaved, and fell asleep quickly.
Seeing that he was sleeping soundly, Mu Qian stared at him for a long time. She couldn't help but come forward and kissed him gently. Then she lifted the quilt and got up, getting out of bed lightly.
At this time, Huo Jinxi was not in the bedroom, but naturally in the study.
Mu Qian put on her clothes and walked to the door of the study, and sure enough she heard his voice.
Huo Jinxi was on the phone with Qi Yuan. Qi Yuan reported to him Zhang Guoping's whereabouts this afternoon, especially emphasizing an incident that happened after Zhang Guoping had dinner with his friends -
"There was a car in the parking lot at that time. The driver may have been drunk and the car was driving erratically. He rushed directly in front of Zhang Guoping and almost hit him. Zhang Guoping was instantly frightened and turned pale. After that, until he returned to the hotel, Zhang Guoping
They all seemed in a trance and very nervous——"
After hearing this, Huo Jinxi said calmly: "If you do something wrong, of course you are afraid of retribution."
"He hid in his room as soon as he returned to the hotel, and he hasn't shown up yet - wait, I saw him! He took his luggage and went downstairs and was checking out!" Qi Yuan's tone suddenly changed.
Huo Jinxi sat behind the desk, thought for a moment after hearing this, and then said: "Stop him."
Qi Yuan was a little unsure of what to do, "Are we going to stop him just like that? I think he is very nervous, so it shouldn't be easy to stop him."
"He's afraid of an accident, isn't he?" Huo Jinxi said lightly.
On the other end of the phone, Qi Yuan immediately understood what he meant and responded: "I will make arrangements immediately."
Huo Jinxi then stopped and looked up at the door: "Why don't you come in?"
The door to the study room opened. Mu Qian leaned against the door and looked at him with a slightly raised eyebrow, "Huo Jinxi, what bad thing are you doing?"
Huo Jinxi leaned back in his chair and met her gaze calmly, "Doing what you always do, right?"
After hearing this, Mu Qian immediately walked up to him quickly, sat on his lap, stretched out her hand to grab his collar, and said angrily: "Nonsense! I am so simple, beautiful and kind, how can I be like you? I am really bad.
!”
"Yeah." Huo Jinxi raised his eyes and looked at her, "Then do you like it or not?"
Mu Qian bit her lip suddenly, and after a moment, she laughed uncontrollably.
…
That night, Zhang Guoping suddenly encountered a car crash on his way to the airport.
The accident was not serious, even just a minor accident, but Zhang Guoping was so frightened that he pushed the door open, got out of the car, and ran away.
But just after running a few steps, a car suddenly crossed in front of him.
Zhang Guoping's legs went weak and he almost fell to the ground.
Qi Yuan leaned forward from the car and looked at him, "Doctor Zhang? Do you remember me? I am Mr. Huo Jinxi's administrative assistant. Please get in the car."
After Zhang Guoping heard this, he hurriedly opened the door and got into the car without caring about anything else.
The car gradually drove away from the scene of the story, and Zhang Guoping looked at Qi Yuan, "Why are you here?"
Qi Yuan paused and then said: "To be honest with you, Mr. Huo was afraid that you would be in danger, so he asked me to follow you all the time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Guoping broke out in a cold sweat, "You...what did you say? How could he know that I was in any danger?"
"Dr. Zhang, Mr. Huo specially invited you to Tongcheng this time. Do you really think it is as simple as just for a physical examination?" Qi Yuan said, "I said so, you should understand."
Zhang Guoping's expression changed instantly.
…
Late at night, in the executive suite of Huo's luxury hotel.
Zhang Guoping took off his tie and collar, sat on the sofa tiredly, stretched out his hand to support his forehead, and looked pale.
He closed his eyes and seemed to be falling asleep, but in fact Qi Yuan could see that it was impossible for him to sleep with such a look on his face.
Qi Yuan poured him a glass of wine. The moment he put the glass on the table, the doorbell of the room suddenly rang.
Zhang Guoping froze for a moment as if he was frightened. He opened his eyes and looked at the door nervously.
"Don't worry." Qi Yuan said, "It should be Mr. Huo."
As soon as he finished speaking, a bodyguard opened the door, and the person who walked in was indeed Huo Jinxi.
Zhang Guoping raised his hand and took off his glasses, revealing a pair of eyes slightly deformed due to high myopia, staring closely at Huo Jinxi.
Huo Jinxi sat down on the sofa opposite him. He was no longer as calm and peaceful as he had been during the day. He leaned back on the sofa, his gaze fell on Zhang Guoping with a formidable gaze, and a compelling aura came over him.
Zhang Guoping finally couldn't help but withdrew his gaze and did not look at him again.
"I heard that Dr. Zhang originally planned to leave the day after tomorrow." Huo Jinxi said slowly, "Why did he suddenly change his schedule?"
Zhang Guoping gritted his teeth, and after a moment, he sneered and said: "I have something to do at home, and I want to go back early. Don't I have to explain it to Mr. Huo?"
After hearing this, Huo Jinxi nodded lightly and said, "In that case, we really don't need to force Dr. Zhang to stay. If you want to leave, please do so."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Guoping suddenly stood up, picked up his suitcase and walked towards the door.
No one stopped him.
Zhang Guoping went straight out of the door. However, the moment he stepped out of the room, he couldn't help but pause slightly in his steps.
In front of me is a quiet and empty corridor. It is so quiet in the middle of the night and there is no one around. It makes people feel that they don't know where this road will lead.
Behind him was the room where Huo Jinxi was, brightly lit and full of bodyguards.
There is a cliff thousands of feet in front of you, and behind you, there is also a dragon's pond and a tiger's den.
Zhang Guoping stood for a long time and finally slowly turned around and looked at Huo Jinxi: "What exactly do you want to do?"
Huo Jinxi sat on the sofa with her back to him. He didn't look back when he heard this, and said calmly: "It's very simple. I want to know how Mu Huaian died."
