Chapter 342 Asking for Help
Helplessly, she could only get up and tidy up with dark circles under her eyes.
When she was about to go out, she heard the sound of a door opening in the hall.
She panicked for a moment, and her feet were not under her control, so she hurried out of the room.
Just then, I saw the door of the living room being opened from the outside, and then Huo Xilin walked in from outside dragging his luggage.
The moment their eyes met, they both froze in place, staring at each other in a daze.
"You..." After a long while, Huo Xilin spoke first: "Sorry, I thought you were gone."
He bought the flight ticket last night, and was afraid of meeting her when he came back, so he stayed in the airport lounge until this morning and then came back. But he didn't expect that he would meet her again.
Although the two were separated for a short time, he suffered every day when they were not together.
Now that I finally see her and she is standing right in front of me, the excitement I feel is simply beyond words.
But he no longer had the courage he once had, and held her tightly in his arms.
Xu Qingsui couldn't tell what he was feeling.
Although she didn't want to admit it, she couldn't deceive herself about her feelings.
In fact, she was looking forward to meeting Huo Xilin, and even booked a later flight in the morning. She was hoping to meet him. Even if they didn't say anything, she had to see him and know that he was a good person. That would be enough.
"I was just about to leave." Xu Qingsui said, then turned and went back to his room.
She was afraid that if she walked any slower, she couldn't help but want to go up and hug Huo Xilin.
But she can't!
Sometimes people are not controlled by reason, but are influenced by emotions, and often behave irrationally.
So, she almost ran away.
But her behavior of running away hurt Huo Xilin deeply.
Does she just hate seeing him? Don't want to be with him even for a moment?
Soon, Xu Qingsui walked out of the bedroom dragging a suitcase and saw Huo Xilin still standing there with his head down, looking a little lonely.
He was nearly 1.9 meters tall, and at this moment he looked so helpless and pitiful.
Xu Qingsui's heart couldn't help but ache: "You...you have to take care of yourself."
After holding it in for a long time, I could only utter these dry words.
Xu Qingsui was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to resist going up to hug him, so he hardened his heart and simply pulled the box past him.
Just when the two of them passed each other, Huo Xilin's hand was placed on her luggage and accidentally touched the back of her hand.
Xu Qingsui seemed to be frozen in place and stopped immediately.
She looked up at Huo Xilin, and he looked down at her.
The moment their eyes met, Huo Xilin said, "I'll drive you."
Xu Qingsui was about to refuse, but before she could open her mouth, Huo Xilin continued, "Don't refuse me, okay?"
He spoke in a pleading tone, and the words of rejection were instantly stuck in Xu Qingsui's throat, and he couldn't say them out no matter what.
Seeing Xu Qingsui's silence, Huo Xilin just assumed that she agreed. In an instant, his eyes seemed to be reborn, and his whole body was swept away by the haze and became happy.
It turns out that his emotions would change because of her words, actions, or even a decision.
Huo Xilin was afraid that Xu Qingsui would go back on his word, so he quickly dropped his own luggage, took hers from Xu Qingsui, and walked out the door quickly: "I'll wait for you in the parking lot."
As soon as he finished speaking, the person disappeared.
Xu Qingsui: “…”
Helplessly, she could only chase after it and got on the elevator just before the door closed.
The two stood side by side, and the air seemed to be a little condensed. Xu Qingsui and Huo Xilin had been together for so many years, but even in the beginning, they had never felt as awkward as they did now.
What exactly is different?
She couldn't say it for a moment.
After getting in the car, Xu Qingsui wanted to go to the back seat, but Huo Xilin had already opened the passenger door and was waiting for her to get in like a gentleman.
She has always been a soft-hearted person. Faced with this situation, it was difficult for her to refuse, so she had to sit on it.
The moment the door closed, a triumphant smile appeared on Huo Xilin's lips.
It seemed as if everything was within his expectations, although he had not yet figured out why Xu Qingsui suddenly distanced herself from him. As for what she said about not loving him anymore, he did not believe a word of it.
Soon, he will find out the reasons.
Along the way, neither of them spoke again. When getting off the bus, Huo Xilin took Xu Qingsui's luggage off the bus. When she entered the station, he said to her, "Qingsui, call me anytime if you have anything. Just like you said, even if we are not together in the future, at least I am still Youyou's father, and the relationship between us will never be severed."
As long as Xu Youyou exists, it is impossible for her to cut off contact with him even if she wants to.
Thinking of this, Huo Xilin suddenly felt extremely clear-headed. The unexpected pregnancy at the beginning made her insist on giving birth to Xu Youyou.
Did she have the same idea at that time, that as long as she gave birth to this child, they would be connected forever?
Xu Qingsui listened to the footsteps. She did not respond to Huo Xilin's words, but walked into the ticket hall without looking back.
Because the plane was delayed, it was already past two in the afternoon when Xu Qingsui arrived in the capital.
She hurried home, booked a restaurant online, and sent the address to Qin Fang.
The two hadn't seen each other for a while. When Qin Fang saw Xu Qingsui for the first time, he found that she looked much more haggard, especially the dark circles under her eyes, which were still very obvious even though she put on light makeup.
He asked with some distress: "Have you not had enough rest recently? Are you too busy with work?"
"A little bit." Xu Qingsui said.
"No matter how busy you are at work, you must remember to rest. Health is the most important thing. I see that you have lost some weight since last time. You can eat more."
It’s no wonder that Qin Fang said she had lost weight. Because of the truth about her parents’ car accident, her appetite had decreased recently and she ate less, so it was natural for her to lose weight.
"Thank you for your concern, Brother Qin. I will definitely eat well."
"Okay, let's stop being polite with each other."
While waiting for the food to be served, Qin Fang asked, "Tell me, what do you want my help with this time?"
Xu Qingsui hesitated for a moment and said, "Brother Qin, do you know any good private detectives?"
"What do you want a private detective for?" Qin Fang asked doubtfully, "Huo Xilin cheated on his wife? Is he entangled with Yan Xisui again?"
