Hearing Huo Jinxi's answer, Rong Heng's eyes dimmed slightly and he didn't have much reaction.
Because all of them knew in their hearts what kind of person Lu Yuchuan was, especially after this time, it was even more obvious what kind of choice he would make.
Even so, with Rong Heng's habitual thinking, he still couldn't help but have such an idea. Although he himself knew how naive such an idea was, he still held out hope that a miracle would happen.
And the person who can create this miracle...
There was a sound at the door at the right time. As soon as Rong Heng turned around, he saw the person he was thinking of.
Mu Qian walked in from the outside unhurriedly, and when she saw him, her face instantly darkened.
"Hey, Second Young Master Rong is back?"
As soon as Rong Heng heard her yin and yang tone, he remembered the conversation with her on the phone a few days ago. He frowned slightly and didn't say anything. He just looked at her and then at Huo Jinxi.
Huo Jinxi also looked at Mu Qian, and then his eyes fell on Rong Heng's face, his eyes cold and indifferent.
Rong Heng originally wanted to continue discussing with him the possibility of Lu Yuchuan surrendering, but when he saw Huo Jinxi's expression, he couldn't open his mouth.
How could he forget that Huo Jinxi didn't want Mu Qian to get involved in this matter.
This has been the case in the past, let alone now.
Rong Heng couldn't help but let out a breath and turned his face away.
Mu Qian had already noticed something. After glaring at Huo Jinxi, she looked at Rong Heng again, "What? You want to tell me something?"
"It's nothing." Huo Jinxi's eyes were shocked, and Rong Heng was too lazy to say anything more.
"Really?" Mu Qian moved closer to him, "Don't you want to discuss Lu Yuchuan's affairs with me?"
Rong Heng suddenly jumped up from the sofa, "Can you two stop torturing me? Who will participate and who will not participate? Can you two discuss it? Why should you put me in the middle of this matter?
Heart-grinding!"
After Rong Heng finished speaking, he grabbed the cigarettes and lighter on the table and walked out angrily.
Mu Qian then stared at Huo Jinxi, who was still sitting elegantly and quietly, "Are you not allowing me to participate in this matter again?"
Huo Jinxi said slowly: "When things have reached this stage, you know that I will never allow you to interfere again."
If before, this matter was still within control, but after the Huaishi incident, everything became unknown, and the crises were numerous and immeasurable.
Therefore, even if Huo Jinxi turned a blind eye and let Mu Qian get involved, at this moment, he could not let her continue.
"So?" Mu Qian couldn't help but spread her hands, "Am I going to disappear from this world out of thin air?"
Huo Jinxi looked at her for a moment, then slowly leaned forward, "Anyway, you have disappeared in front of him, so it is only natural to keep it like this."
"Huo Jinxi!"
Mu Qian suddenly stretched out her hand and pushed him, but Huo Jinxi took her hand and held it against his heart.
Mu Qian bit her lip slightly and looked at him.
He clearly knew that the reason why she "disappeared" in front of Lu Yuchuan was just to retreat in order to advance, but he just wanted her to retreat to the end!
"The situation is unclear right now, and I won't let you take risks." Huo Jinxi said in a deep voice.
Mu Qian bit her lip and said, "You thought the same thing when you drove me away."
"It's different." Huo Jinxi said, "This time, I want you to be safe and sound, forever."
Meeting Huo Jinxi's deep gaze, Mu Qian was speechless for a moment.
"Think carefully about what was going through your mind when you almost drowned in that pond." Huo Jinxi said with an unkind expression, "Then you tell me whether you still want to take the risk.
"
Mu Qian paused suddenly.
When she almost drowned in that pond?
Yes, at that time, she thought she was going to die, and the only things that flashed through her mind were him and Qi Ran.
Mu Qian almost never dared to recall the mood she felt at that time. At this moment, she only recalled a little bit, and her eyes turned red uncontrollably.
Huo Jinxi would be sad to lose her, Huo Qiran would be sad to lose her, and the child in his belly...
Now, she is no longer the courageous and fearless Mu Qian she once was. Her life is too precious and cannot be given up easily.
"I never thought about deliberately taking risks." Mu Qian stood up and sat next to Huo Jinxi, looked at him and said, "Because I know my identity clearly... I am not only Mu Huaian's daughter, I am also yours
Huo Jinxi's wife is Qi Ran and the mother of the child in her belly. Do you think I don't even know about this?"
Huo Jinxi just stared at her quietly and said slowly: "So you know what's going on?"
"Of course I know!" Mu Qian got closer to him, "Huo Jinxi, do you think I have masochistic tendencies? I haven't had a few good days in my life! I finally have everything I want.
I still want to spend the rest of my life enjoying it! Am I willing to let myself take risks?"
As she spoke, she moved closer to him, and finally she almost leaned into his arms.
Ever since she became pregnant, she rarely showed such a gentle and gentle attitude, but Huo Jinxi still remained rational enough——
"You really don't think so." Huo Jinxi said, "I'm afraid that when things come to an emergency, your subconscious reaction is to risk your life. Do you think I will take this risk?"
"I won't!" Mu Qian kept saying, "I absolutely won't, I swear I won't!"
Huo Jinxi glanced at her and said, "If you don't know how, then just be obedient."
Mu Qian opened her mouth to argue, but when she met Huo Jinxi's gaze, she paused. After curling her lips, she finally gave in, "Then it's okay for me to know the progress of the case, right? It's okay to occasionally participate in discussions and help with ideas.
Right? Why are you isolating me outside and not letting me know anything? Am I such a useless person in your eyes? "
After hearing this, Huo Jinxi said unhurriedly: "I would rather you were a useless person."
Mu Qian: "..."
…
Outside the house, Rong Heng was leaning on the porch and smoking while listening to the whispers coming from the house. His mind was buzzing and he couldn't think of anything for the moment.
At this moment, an unfamiliar car suddenly drove in from outside the door and parked in the parking space skillfully.
Rong Heng turned around when he heard the sound, and when he saw it, his expression suddenly became condensed.
The people in the car turned out to be Huo Jinnan... and Lu Yuan.
After Huo Jinnan got off the car, he quickly walked to the passenger seat, opened the door for Lu Yuan, reached in with one hand to take her handbag, and helped her get out of the car with the other hand.
The two of them were chatting about something as they got out of the car, whispering and laughing, and their movements and demeanor looked very intimate.
