Chapter 184 You have always liked me, right?

Jiang Qin woke up because of hunger.

As soon as I opened my eyes, a familiar voice sounded in my ears, "Are you awake?"

Frowning slightly, Jiang Qin propped himself up and sat up.

He reacted first, making sure that there was nothing serious wrong with his body. Without looking at the people around him, he was looking for his shoes.

But I couldn't find it for a while.

Horsley stood up from the accompanying stool, walked to the end of the bed, and picked up his shoes. "Here, shall I put them on for you?"

"I can do it myself." Jiang Qin's voice sounded weak.

Huo Sili frowned slightly, and a look of loss appeared on his handsome face, but he still listened to the words.

"Okay." He put the shoes in the middle of the bed for her convenience.

Jiang Qin bent down to put on her shoes. Maybe it was a sequelae of the accident, but with her head lowered, her vision became somewhat dark.

In an instant, her eyebrows wrinkled in physiological discomfort.

The body's protection mechanism was automatically activated, and her hands were faster than her brain. The moment her vision went dark, Jiang Qin almost immediately moved her hands diagonally upward and backward, tightly gripping the edge of the bed to prevent herself from getting too dizzy and falling headfirst to the ground.

Huo Sili was right beside them, so he naturally noticed it. The man's pupils shrank, and without waiting for his reaction, he instantly reached out and caught Jiang Qin who was falling down, and then put one hand on her shoulder to help her stabilize her body.

There was obvious anxiety and distress in his eyes. "Are you still dizzy? Then don't get up. Just lean on the bed for a while. I'll ask He Xu to bring lunch over."

The dense black shadows in front of Jiang Qin's eyes, which appeared when she suddenly stood up from squatting due to severe anemia as a child due to her family's poor financial situation, have not disappeared yet.

Therefore, being supported like this, he was unable to react immediately. He listened to what Horsley was saying, but he did not have the energy to respond for the time being.

At this time, Huo Sili helped Jiang Qin sit up on the edge of the bed and called He Xu in front of her.

He instructed the other party to pack the lunch in the staff cafeteria and deliver it to the infirmary ward, and personally reported the specific names of the dishes.

And hearing the names of the dishes——

"Sweet and sour pork tenderloin, beef stew with potatoes, steamed egg with minced meat, lotus root and pork ribs soup, stir-fried lettuce, spicy eggplant..."

The thought of what Jiang Qin wanted to say disappeared.

Forget it, I’m hungry. Food is the most important thing for people. Why should I hurt my stomach because of him?

Besides, she has been following a good daily routine recently and must eat on time. She has persisted for so long, and Jiang Qin, who has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder, doesn't want her daily routine to be disrupted by the person next to her.

After all, it is not good for her, and even worse for the child. Pregnancy consumes a lot of maternal nutrition, and insufficient maternal nutrition and energy supply is also not good for the development of the fetus.

He Xu delivered the food very quickly, and for a hungry person, the smell of the dishes was delicious.

It's not like there is any deep hatred, so naturally the grudges can be put aside temporarily.

Horsley brought over a small bedside table and set it up, then opened the lids of the packed lunch boxes one by one.

They were all her favorite foods. Jiang Qin was so hungry that her stomach ached and she had some palpitations. She couldn't be polite and quickly picked up her chopsticks to eat.

Huo Sili looked at Jiang Qin who was eating quietly beside him for a while, then picked up the last portion in the bag.

That was what He Xu had packed for him. It was a simple lunch box with both the food and the dishes in it. Compared with the sumptuous "separate vegetables and rice" fast food meal on Jiang Qin's table, it looked quite pitiful.

But after eating and looking at the person on the hospital bed, Horsley's eyes were obviously bright.

Then, he thought of something, and his eyes dimmed again.

Yes, it seemed like they hadn't eaten at the same table for a long, long time.

It had been a long time since he had felt that way a year ago, when he could just have a simple meal with her at home and feel filled with happiness.

The gazes of the people around her were too obvious, and there were only her and him in the room at the moment, so Jiang Qin naturally felt it.

But she didn't care, she planned to eat, recover better, and then leave.

He Xu agreed to help her get those things. In Jiang Qin's impression, He Xu has always been quite reliable, so she was not worried.

But I didn't want to finish my meal, so I packed up my lunch box and prepared to leave. Just as I put on my shoes and stood up beside the bed, I was stopped by Horsley.

"Qinqin, wait."

A man who eats someone's food is soft-hearted, and a man who takes someone's money is grateful.

Jiang Qin frowned slightly and didn't want to pay attention, but when she thought about it, she was able to get out safely this time, thanks to Huo Sili, and he did help her again in the situation just now.

Although he wanted to abort the child, the reality was that this was the case.

This time, it was probably because of him that she was rescued in time. After all, she could actually feel that the repair progress was very slow at that time. A lot of people suddenly came later, and when she fell on a certain floor, she could hear the noise outside.

And since she met He Xu when she went upstairs, He Xu, as his confidant, has always been a thoughtful person, so it is not difficult to guess that He Xu probably told him the guess, and he stepped forward to advance the progress of the repair, so that she was rescued in time.

"What do you want to say?" Thinking of this, Jiang Qin finally turned around.

She thought that there would probably not be much to say and it wouldn't take up too much of her time. After all, ever since they entered the cold war, there had been very few moments for them to sit down and chat.

He handed over the cell phone with the screen lit.

Jiang Qin lowered her eyes to the audio file interface with the play button, and looked at Huo Sili in confusion.

"What?"

The next second, Horsley opened the audio with his slender fingers in front of her.

The voice of a woman who was not unfamiliar but not particularly familiar instantly resounded in the silent ward.

"Brother Si Li, I'm sorry, but, but I can't do anything! I didn't mean to do that, and I didn't know that your grandmother and Secretary Jiang would come over at that time..."

At the beginning, Li Xueqin's voice sounded very miserable and pitiful, with a tearful tone.

Then, Horsley's cold voice sounded, without a trace of warmth.

"From today on, all your projects with Huo's will be cancelled. It just so happens that your previous advertising has always been in a loss-making state. According to the contract, the cooperation should also be stopped."

"As for the future, please don't come to me for any resources or roles. If you do it again, expect to be banned."

After Huo Sili finished speaking, Li Xueqian's panicked voice sounded as if she was begging for mercy.

"Brother Si Li, I...I really didn't mean to destroy your marriage with Secretary Jiang!...I, I am really pregnant, I just don't know what to do..."

"Ms. Li, your character makes me wonder if it was really you who saved Mr. Huo eight years ago? Did you save him because you saw it was Mr. Huo?

"Otherwise, how could your repayment of a favor be so textbook-like!?"

At the end of the recording, He Xu, who is always very measured in what he says and does, asked in a cold and sarcastic voice.

After the recording ended, the quiet atmosphere in the ward became even thicker than before.

However, just as Huo Sili was about to say something, Jiang Qin's voice came out first.

"So, you want to tell me that the baby in your belly has nothing to do with you and Li Xueqian? It's just that she was pregnant, and for the sake of her own reputation, she wanted you to accompany her to the obstetrics and gynecology department at that time?"

Huo Sili's dark pupils suddenly lit up.

"right……"

"Yes?" However, as soon as the word came out, a smile appeared on Jiang Qin's pink lips.

It was not a happy laugh, but a cool, cold, sarcastic and complicated one.

The man's bright eyes dimmed in an instant, "Qinqin, you..." Don't you believe me?

The words were not spoken, because at that moment, Horsley suddenly thought of it.

yes.

Once trust collapses, how can it be easily rebuilt?

He said so many heart-breaking words to her.

How could she let go of the past just because of this incident?

It was he who hurt others in the beginning, not her. Her experiences since childhood had made her sensitive and slow to warm up. After she finally warmed up to the relationship, he extinguished it with his own hands.

Now, why does she think that she has to believe what he says?

In this day and age, anything can be bought as long as you have money, and once trust is destroyed, it is likely to be permanent.

But……

Huo Sili looked at Jiang Qin closely, wanting to explain seriously.

Jiang Qin slapped him hard in the face with just one sentence.

"So, why do you think she chose you to accompany her to the obstetrics and gynecology department?"

Huo Sili, who understood the other meaning in Jiang Qin's words, turned pale suddenly.

She was questioning him why he, a married man, was entangled with Li Xueqian.

It was also a reminder to him that it was because of his excessive indulgence of Li Xue Qian during this period that Li Xue Qian felt that he had other intentions towards her. All of this was clearly his own fault!

Horsley pursed his lips.

"I'm sorry, Qinqin, I..."

At this point, Horsley naturally had no choice but to admit that he was wrong.

He couldn't help but admit that he did have some thoughts at the beginning. Of course, he didn't like Li Xueqin, but he wanted to see Jiang Qin jealous and wanted to know that Jiang Qin cared about him. At the same time, he was really angry why she didn't like him.

But at this moment, Horsley found that he was extremely wrong.

Because his Qinqin was different, and he knew it clearly.

Her feelings are so pure, she knows it clearly.

Obviously I like him so much.

Seeing that Huo Sili had no intention of saying anything else, Jiang Qin turned around and was about to go out. As soon as she put her hand on the door handle, a gust of wind came from behind her.

"Qinqin, I want to ask you something! Wait a moment, just a moment, it will be quick."

He held her wrist with some force.

Jiang Qin frowned. She had just recovered a little. Her health was not that good. When she compared his physique with hers, there was no need to guess. Jiang Qin had a good idea of ​​her own fighting power.

A man of insight is a wise man, so she finally stopped.

But at the moment of stopping, she used her hand to pry open his big hand that was holding her wrist.

She raised her eyes to meet his, remaining calm and speaking in a calm and distant tone.

"What do you want to ask? Ask."

"A year ago, the one you liked was me, and no one else, right? Also, do you know someone named Chi Shen? Chi means late, and Shen means deep."
