Chapter 12 Secretary Jiang, please don't misunderstand Si Lige

"You may also bleed in the early stages of pregnancy, and it varies from person to person. My aunt had that experience at the time. She told me that it looked like her period at the time, but then it took too long and she thought something was wrong, so she went to get checked and found out she was pregnant."

It was rush hour in Kyoto, traffic was congested and the white BMW stopped again.

Su Lejia turned around and looked at the pale-faced Jiang Qin, her eyes showing obvious concern and worry.

"But don't panic. It could just be that your period is delayed. But I think you should pick a time and go to the hospital for another checkup."

Jiang Qin removed her hand that was holding the bag, and her palm was cold with sweat.

She heard her voice trembling and responded softly, "Okay."

When I came out of the restaurant, it was already 8:30 in the evening and the sky was pitch dark.

Thanks to Su Lejia's thoughtful care, Jiang Qin, who had no appetite due to something on her mind, ate quite full during the meal.

After coming out, Jiang Qin wanted to go for a walk around the area with Su Lejia and have a chat with the two sisters, but unfortunately, Su Lejia's subordinate called and said that something had gone wrong with the project and it was very urgent, so Su Lejia had to leave first.

The night was dark. Jiang Qin watched the white BMW go away and returned to the state of being alone that she was most familiar with in all these years.

The street lights lengthened the human shadow. Jiang Qin stood on the side of the road, with cars passing by from time to time in front of her and passers-by in a hurry behind her.

She looked up at the sky and blinked. She couldn't tell whether she was relieving the eye fatigue from the day or trying to stop the sour tears that might come out after feeling a strong sense of loneliness.

However, the whole action only took her three short seconds. After three seconds, Jiang Qin took out her cell phone from her bag and called a taxi back to Yunhai Huafu.

Tomorrow is Saturday, and as Huo Sili told Xie Youan before, there will be social engagements all day.

And the person who accompanied him was none other than her.

Jiang Qin has always been clear about the distinction between public and private affairs. Since she hasn't resigned yet, she will definitely do her job well.

The car stopped outside the gate of Yunhai Huafu. Jiang Qin got out and walked inside. Before she reached the door, she heard the familiar and pitiful voice of a young woman coming from the lighted hall.

"Ouch, Brother Sili, it hurts, it hurts so much."

Jiang Qin's pupils shrank slightly, she couldn't believe it. How could she not recognize the sound she had just heard during the day?

That was clearly Li Xueqian's voice!

Huo Sili brought Li Xueqian home?

Jiang Qin curled her fingers slightly, and saw someone walking quickly in front of her. It was Aunt Wang.

"Madam." Aunt Wang called out to her with a complicated and distressed look.

Jiang Qin understood that this was a reminder for her to go inside. Jiang Qin nodded and forced a smile, then walked in with her bag, without looking around, and headed straight for the elevator.

However, just after a few steps in, the man called out, "Jiang Qin, come here."

Jiang Qin paused, pinched her fingertips and turned around. There was no way to avoid it. The figures of the two people entered her field of vision.

Huo Sili and Li Xueqin sat on the same sofa, and there was a stool in front of Li Xueqin.

She had changed her clothes and was wearing a long, simple-style dress with her long hair tied into a bun. She looked very different from the pretty look she had during the day. Her skirt was lifted up and one of her fair legs was placed on the stool in an unsightly manner.

Horsley held a cotton swab dipped in iodine in his hand, and on the coffee table were iodine and two tubes of ointment.

Looking up, Jiang Qin noticed the obvious slap mark on the woman's face. He raised his eyebrows slightly and moved his gaze again. Jiang Qin saw a wound on Li Xueqin's calf that was not too big but was obviously soaked in blood... What was going on?

"She's staying here tonight. Arrange a room for her."

Horsley interrupted her thoughts.

Jiang Qin raised her eyes and met Huo Sili's. The man's eyes were dark and deep, and she couldn't understand what he was thinking.

What she didn't understand was why he asked her to arrange a room for Li Xueqian. He had a mouth.

But thinking of something, Jiang Qin still smiled and nodded, "Then, let Miss Li live in the master bedroom?"

It just so happened that she really didn't want to live in the same room with him. She slept in the bathroom last night and he took off the bathroom lock. It seemed that she couldn't sleep there today.

Unexpectedly, Huo Sili's face darkened. "Jiang Qin." He pronounced the two words with gritted teeth, and there seemed to be a chill in between his teeth.

Jiang Qin just felt confused. She was so generous, what else did he want?

He brought her home late at night, didn't he just want to spend the night with Bai Yueguang?

However, in the face of that gloomy and warning look, Jiang Qin wisely changed his words.

"Then let's go to the guest room on the third floor," Jiang Qin said. "It's quite big and will be cleaned on time. It's clean."

Yes, he is the one in power in the Beijing circle, and she is just an ordinary person. Moreover, she is planning to go to the hospital for another check-up to see if she is pregnant. It will not only do no good to provoke him, but it may also sow trouble for her in the future. It is better not to provoke him.

"Mr. Huo, do you have anything else to do? If not, I'll go upstairs and rest first." Jiang Qin glanced at Huo Sili.

Huo Sili looked at her without saying anything. Jiang Qin stepped back and turned to go to the elevator.

Li Xueqian suddenly said, "Secretary Jiang."

Jiang Qin frowned and turned around, "Miss Li, is there something wrong?"

"No." Li Xueqian said in a delicate voice. She glanced at Huo Sili and then looked at Jiang Qin. "Secretary Jiang, don't misunderstand Brother Sili. If Secretary Jiang doesn't want me to stay here, I will take a taxi and leave later."

Jiang Qin was amused in her heart, but her face was gentle as a professional, "What are you talking about, Miss Li? Mr. Huo said that you can live here, so live here, and don't worry about me."

After saying that, Jiang Qin strode towards the elevator and her figure disappeared behind the closing elevator door.

Late at night, Jiang Qin tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep. She didn't know if it was because she ate too much the night before. She lay down for a while but couldn't fall asleep, so she simply turned on the bedside lamp and sat up.

It was already early morning, and Mr. Huo Sili had not come to the master bedroom, and no sound of anyone coming upstairs was heard.

Jiang Qin suddenly remembered that she hadn't applied medicine to the glass wound on her calf. When she unzipped her bag, she laughed at herself.

Maybe it wasn't long enough, and Huo Sili's previous behavior still hurt her, so she lay down to escape after taking a shower, and even forgot to open the gift Xie Youan gave her.

Jiang Qin first applied ointment to her wound, then washed her hands and opened the gifts.

As luck would have it, just as the ribbon was untied, I heard a man's steady footsteps in the corridor.

Jiang Qin glanced at the ribbon in her hand, thought about it, and finally put the things back into the bag, turned off the lights and quickly lay back on the bed.

The door handle was pressed down at this moment.

Jiang Qin clearly heard Huo Sili's footsteps approaching, and turned over in the bed, turning her back to the direction he was used to facing.

The bed was noticeably lowered, and the man lay on the other side.

Jiang Qin frowned slightly, closed her eyes and was about to move to her side of the bed, but just as she moved, an arm wrapped around her waist.

He was strong and powerful, and his body temperature was higher than hers. Jiang Qin stopped moving and dared not move again.

Suddenly, she felt heat from behind. The man's chest muscles were firm, and he was obviously holding her in his arms. The woody scent from his body lingered around her, making Jiang Qin even more confused.

Li Xueqin is in this house tonight. What does it mean that he doesn't hug his sweetheart but hugs her?
