Chapter 364 Warmth
"Okay, I'll go talk to her. If you have any problems, remember to call me. Especially if Huo Xilin bullies you, don't forget that I'm here with you. Even if we're not lovers, we're still friends and family, right?"
At this moment, Qin Fang also faced the reality. Even if Huo Xilin did something wrong to Xu Qingsui and hurt her badly, the person in her heart would always be him and not herself.
Since they are destined not to be together as lovers for the rest of their lives, then the next best thing is to be friends or family. At least there is a legitimate identity that allows him to stay by her side, even if it is just watching her from afar, knowing that she is safe and happy, that is enough.
Loving someone does not necessarily mean you have to be together. There are always many choices in life, and what he needs to do is to respect her choice.
When Xu Qingsui heard Qin Fang's feelings, she felt touched and ashamed. She choked up and said, "Brother Qin, don't be so nice to me. I can't afford it."
Qin Fang smiled and said gently: "I don't need you to pay me back. I just want you to be happy. If you really want to pay me back, then work hard to make yourself live a good life. Don't let Huo Xilin bully you. You know, I hate to see you live a miserable life."
"Okay, I promise you, you must be happy." Xu Qingsui said firmly.
"I will." When Qin Fang hung up the phone, he suddenly remembered something: "By the way, the person you asked me to find has been found. He will be returning to China in a few days. I will introduce him to you then."
Xu Qingsui was immediately pleasantly surprised: "Really? That's great!"
This is really the best news I have heard in a while.
Qin Fang never does things perfunctorily for her. The people he finds must be very capable, so Xu Qingsui is very relieved.
The matter between her and Huo Xilin could be put aside for the time being, but the safety of her family was already at stake. The feeling of having a knife hanging over her head made her uneasy day and night. No matter what, she had to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
After saying goodbye to Qin Fang, Xu Qingsui hung up the phone and looked at Huo Xilin’s missed call. She hesitated for a moment and finally put down the phone.
She was standing on the roadside and was about to hail a taxi when she suddenly saw a figure approaching her. She raised her head alertly and saw the fully armed Lu Jingyu appearing behind her.
Why did he come this morning?
Xu Qingsui's heart was immediately filled with alarm bells. Every time he showed up, nothing good would happen. After all, he was just a debt collector.
Although he was extremely flustered, Xu Qingsui tried to appear calm on the outside and asked Lu Jingyu, "I have already given you every penny you asked for, and I have agreed to your request. Why are you looking for me now?"
"You were talking to Qin Fang on the phone just now, right?" Lu Jingyu smiled playfully, "I didn't expect you to be so capable. You can manipulate the two richest men in the country. I really underestimated you before."
Xu Qingsui was speechless and said coldly: "This doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, right?"
"How can you say it doesn't matter?" Lu Jingyu's face suddenly turned ugly: "Xu Qingsui, don't forget that you are Huo Xilin's wife now. If you offend him, you will get nothing in the end. If you ruin my plan, what will happen to you and your family? Don't I need to remind you?"
"I know." Xu Qingsui said, "Don't worry. I remember the two-year period. I will never bet my family, so you will definitely get what you want. As for how I use it, that's my business. You don't have to worry about it. Like you said, I have the ability to play two men in the palm of my hand. How can you know that this is not a trick of mine?"
Although Lu Jingyu was wearing a hat and a mask, he could not hide the shock in his eyes.
He looked at Xu Qingsui for a long time, as if trying to see something from her expression.
But her expression was so calm that he couldn't tell the truth in her words.
Lu Jingyu felt a little nervous. He had suffered a great loss at the hands of Xu Qingsui three years ago. This woman was not simple. He was very cautious this time and had hooked up with an important figure. He was sure that he would not fall into her hands again.
He sneered, "Okay, I'll wait! You'd better not play any tricks, after all, I'm not alone!"
Having said that, he turned and left.
Only after watching Lu Jingyu disappear around the corner did Xu Qingsui finally breathe a sigh of relief. In fact, she was still very scared of Lu Jingyu's appearance.
Fortunately, everything can still be handled, especially the phone call with Qin Fang just now. I didn't mention the detective matter directly. If he heard it, the consequences would be unimaginable.
It seems that she must be extremely cautious in future detective matters. She is sure that Lu Jingyu and the people around him are always monitoring her every move.
If she makes any move, they will be the first to know.
A car stopped in front of Xu Qingsui. When she looked up, Huo Xilin had already gotten out of the car and walked to her side.
"Why didn't you call me after get off work?"
It is already early winter. It is fine when there is sunshine during the day, but in the evening, after the sun sets, the north wind blows with a chill that hurts people's faces.
Seeing that Xu Qingsui was wearing thin clothes, Huo Xilin took off his coat without thinking and put it on her, then turned around and opened the passenger door.
His clothes not only retained his scent, but also his warmth. The moment the clothes were put on her, it seemed to dispel all the coldness.
Xu Qingsui originally wanted to refuse, but who can refuse warmth in winter?
After all, she is not a person of integrity, especially when it comes to Huo Xilin.
"Get in the car. We'll talk about it when we get home." Huo Xilin opened the car door and turned to Xu Qingsui.
He would never give her a chance to refuse. When he finished saying this, he had already reached out and held her hand. Seeing that she was still standing still, with her slender body wrapped in his coat, she looked like a child who had stolen adult clothes, making people want to pity her.
"If you don't get in the car, I'll carry you in my arms," he said to her.
Xu Qingsui knew that he would definitely do what he said, so she had no choice but to sit in the passenger seat herself.
After fastening Xu Qingsui's seat belt and closing the car door, Huo Xilin flashed a cold light in his eyes in a corner that Xu Qingsui couldn't see.
In fact, he had already been waiting across the street from the museum, and he saw clearly the scene when Lu Jingyu appeared next to Xu Qingsui.
