"Oh, Lingling is playing outside. She's drunk, so I'm going to pick her up."
"It's so late, do you think it's safe for you to pick her up at a nightclub?" Qin Chu's tone was a bit cold.
He was completely different from his usual self …
Huo Mien had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
"Oh … it's fine, I'm not drunk. Plus, didn't I come back safely?" Huo Mien smiled.
Qin Chu didn't say anything else, but his expression remained indifferent …
"Are you hungry? I'll make you a midnight snack."
"No, it's okay, I already ate."
"Then I'll run the bath for you?" Huo Mien asked guiltily.
"You go to bed first, I still have work to do." After speaking, Qin Chu got up, went upstairs, and went straight into his study.
With a 'bang', the door to the study was tightly shut, and even the sound was louder than usual.
Huo Mien was a bit confused. "Is Mr. Qin on his period? He's acting a bit weird today. "
Although he was confused, he didn't think too much about it. Huo Mien would never tell Qin Chu what just happened.
If Qin Chu found out that she faced off against more than twenty men by herself, and even risked her life, he would go crazy.
Qin Chu would go crazy. She knew how much Qin Chu cared about her safety.
Just look at the huge amount of insurance he placed on her.
Huo Mien then took a shower and crawled under the covers …
After waiting for a long time, Qin Chu didn't come back to the room. In the end, she fell asleep on her own.
- Inside the study -
Qin Chu looked at his laptop and didn't look like he was going to work at all.
He was originally in a meeting in a neighboring city, and he was going to have an emergency meeting overnight.
GK invested in real estate in a neighboring city, but the local government introduced a new policy and made changes.
In order to not waste the billions that they invested, Qin Chu had no choice but to bring people to the construction site to inspect.
Then, he brought a few executives and engineers for an overnight meeting.
However, in the middle of the night, he suddenly received a video recording …
It was from Rick. Rick and Qin Chu were friends, but they rarely contacted each other.
Under normal circumstances, Rick would never look for Qin Chu if he didn't need anything. After all, their identities were too special.
No one knew that when Qin Chu was in the United States, he had a special relationship with Rick and Rick's family.
After returning to China, Qin Chu had used Rick's connections once to investigate the incident where the truck had almost hit Huo Mien.
Rick's sudden video call was definitely not because he was bored …
Qin Chu waved his hand and ended the meeting. He walked into the lounge and watched the video.
Then, their faces darkened …
Seductive Fox Nightclub was one of the Rick family's businesses, and there were surveillance cameras in every corner.
Therefore, from the moment Huo Mien walked in to the moment Huo Mien walked out, Qin Chu saw everything clearly.
At the end, Rick added, "I heard that you're not in the city, but don't worry, * * * * will be fine."
In other words, Rick would definitely protect Huo Mien, but to his surprise, Huo Mien easily escaped.
Although this method was a little risky, it really made people look at him in a new light …
Huo Mien probably didn't know that someone was secretly protecting her at Seductive Fox Nightclub.
After Qin Chu saw what Huo Mien did, he felt terrible …
He was no longer in the mood for meetings, so he drove straight home and waited for Huo Mien to confess and admit her mistakes.
He was clearly telling her not to do dangerous things, but she kept putting herself at the heart of the struggle.
If it wasn't Rick's nightclub, if those people were also criminals …
Would Huo Mien still be able to walk out of it unscathed? He didn't even dare to think about it.
However, after he came home and questioned her, this woman pretended to be dumb and didn't say a word about what happened that night.
Didn't he have the right to worry? Shouldn't a married couple be honest with each other?
This was the first time Qin Chu was so angry …
He was angrier than before, so he completely ignored Huo Mien and went to the study.
He didn't go back to his room the entire night.
– The next morning –
When Huo Mien woke up in the morning, she didn't see any breakfast or Qin Chu.
She sent him a WeChat message, "Did you go to work?"
After a while, she didn't get a response. Huo Mien thought that Qin Chu might still be busy, so she didn't think too much about it.
She walked out the door and thought that someone might have taken her license plate number, so she didn't drive. Instead, she took a cab to the hospital.
As soon as she arrived at the hospital, she received a call from Zhu Lingling.
"Girl, what happened last night?" Zhu Lingling's voice was hoarse as she asked in a daze.
