Chapter 62: Lonely...



Chapter 62: Lonely...

The middle-aged man was once again confused about her attitude, so he could only soften his expression. "After all, it's something that will benefit Miss Xia. You might want to take a look at it first. We've been delayed here for so long, the people ahead must be getting suspicious."

"Since you are suspicious, you shouldn't let me out at this time."

Xia Yiqing took a step back, tightened her lips, and bent forward slightly, in a semi-attack state.

She was wearing a wine-red dress that was fitted to her figure, revealing just the right amount of skin. She had an oval face, elegant features, and a swan-like, slender, white neck. When she raised her head slightly, she looked as noble as a princess.

Although no one would mistake Xia Yiqing for a princess at first sight, they would feel as if they were seeing a queen.

The princess is a character who needs to be protected, while the queen is a character who can raise the scepter, exercise power, and not only protect herself but also fight for her people.

There was only the dim light of a street lamp nearby, the stars in the sky were lonely, and the moonlight was slightly white, but it did not dampen Xia Yiqing's momentum in the slightest.

She was like a proud white swan, raising her neck and looking proudly at the people on the shore, letting the water flow across her feathers and wash away all the filth on her body.

It is so stunningly beautiful that one cannot bear to look directly at it.

"But even though you knew there was danger, Miss Xia still came, didn't she? That proves that you have other thoughts about Master Qi Sanye in your heart."

The tone of the person on the other end was very calm, as if he knew Xia Yiqing's situation very well and was very sure about the choice she would make.

Xia Yiqing's face turned pale as she breathed out, "Don't contact me again." Suddenly, her ears buzzed, and she closed her eyes. "He should have someone around to monitor me. I'm not sure if you will be exposed."

"Miss Xia, don't you want to cooperate with us?"

"I don't think you have the capital to make me cooperate with you at the moment. If your purpose is just to slander Mr. Qi Sanye, then it's unlikely. I can pretend that what happened tonight never happened and pretend that we don't know each other. It's good for both of us."

The middle-aged man narrowed his eyes, glanced up quickly, and smiled, "Okay."

His answer was too straightforward. Xia Yiqing stared at the man for a moment, nodded, and slowly walked back.

Although she looked extremely calm, Xia Yiqing actually knew in her heart that a fierce battle was going on between the two sides.

One party is regretting.

Why didn't you look at the contents of the folder? Even if it was fake, and there was only a slight chance that it was true, would you have known the truth of three years ago?

On the other hand, it was just the opposite. She was glad that she made this choice. Even though Qi Hanmu couldn't see it, she didn't betray Qi Hanmu.

As if she had maintained some bottom line, Xia Yiqing shrugged her shoulders, feeling that her metaphor was a bit strange.

Their agreement has now expired and has not been renewed.

It seemed that there was no need for her to betray him.

But when she thought that someone, possibly even someone from the Qi family, was secretly slandering Qi Hanmu, Xia Yiqing felt as if there was a string in her heart that was pulled tight and stretched to the maximum limit, and it would break at the slightest disturbance.

This is taking yourself too seriously.

Xia Yiqing curled the corners of her mouth and walked into the magnificent place again. She raised her wine glass and clinked it with the person next to her, then tilted her head back and let the smooth wine slide down her throat.

Mr. Qi San is very capable, and it is not her turn as a small ex-wife to feel sorry for him.

But after taking a sip of wine and getting drunk, her hands remained very obedient.

It took out its cell phone from its pocket, flipped to the top page of "San Ye", and sent a message.

Qi family.

The top floors were brightly lit.

Countless people were coming in and out. Many of them were called to the company just as they were about to go to bed. They had a look of resentment on their faces, but they had to stay awake, for fear that the chairman on the top floor would stomp his feet and the whole Jiangcheng would shake.

Luo Miao also suffered. Despite being extremely tired, he drank several glasses of espresso, and his mouth was bitter and sour.

He notified countless managers tonight. Either they knocked on the door with a smile and asked others to explain the plan to Qi Hanmu, or they turned away with a cold face and asked others to pack up and leave.

Luo Miao was scolded more that night than in the past month, but he didn't dare to complain. After all, the Third Master was still sitting in the office on the top floor.

“Snap—”

The door was violently yanked open from the inside and slammed against the wall, causing a loud scream.

A man in a suit walked out with a sullen face. His footsteps were too loud to be ignored. Luo Miao stepped forward to stop him, but he didn't react until several bodyguards came over at the same time. Then he snorted fiercely.

There is no need to think about it, he must have been severely scolded by the Third Master.

Luo Miao is really in a difficult situation. There are reasons why this man is so arrogant. This man is Qi Hanmu's third uncle's son, Qi Hanyun. He is arrogant and domineering in his daily life. He is uneducated and has only managed to become a manager.

He hurriedly asked the bodyguard to send Qi Hanyun away, and Luo Miao strode inside, not daring to make loud footsteps.

He was a little worried whether the Third Master's heart could take it.

The Third Master's physical condition has never been disclosed to outsiders. Apart from him and the Third Master himself, only his private doctor Qin Fei knows about it.

Even though Luo Miao moved very quickly and ran inside, he was still startled.

Qi Hanmu's forehead and nose were covered in sweat, his lips were purple, and his right hand was clasped tightly on his left heart, as if he was beating it. His two bloodless lips were open, but he seemed unable to breathe, and his pupils were soft and about to turn upwards.

Without delay, Luo Miao hurriedly opened the drawer, took out the quick-acting heart-saving pills, and took out the pills with trembling hands according to the usual dosage and gave them to the Third Master.

The process was not as smooth as expected.

Just because the cell phone rang, Qi Hanmu's originally unfocused eyes suddenly lit up.

His pupils were trembling and his hands were twitching, but he still wanted to touch the phone on the table.

The phone simply lit up for a moment, showing that the sender was Xia Yiqing.

In fact, Qi Hanmu couldn't see clearly anymore, but the hearing aid in his ear was still working, picking up the faint sound waves -

This is the exclusive ringtone he set for Xia Yiqing.

When the sound came, it could only be that she was looking for him.

He was thinking about her too.

Is this possible?

He wanted to believe it, but he wasn't quite sure.

"Uh..." Qi Hanmu couldn't breathe, his pupils trembled, his lips slightly opened, and he let out a series of gasping sounds.

The pair of phoenix eyes that were always ice-cold now seemed to have lost their original coldness, and instead became like a volcanic eruption and snowflakes falling, like a repetitive cycle of nature, from cold to hot, just because of one person.

Being emotionally agitated only made the Third Master's condition worse, and Luo Miao had to comfort him repeatedly.

"Third Master, please look at me. Let's use the medicine first, okay? Madam must be looking forward to your reply to her message."

Seeing that the man's hands were shaking less, Luo Miao felt relieved, but he didn't dare to relax completely. He still kept the smile on his face. "Come on, open your mouth, we'll use the medicine."

Sitting in the office chair, the man tilted his head back, his cheeks turning purple due to lack of oxygen due to the torture of asthma.

His eye bags have two perfect curves, which look very beautiful, but unfortunately they are now stained with a light bluish-black layer, which shows that he has not had enough rest recently.

As soon as he took the medicine and felt some relief, Qi Hanmu's hanging hand could not wait to reach up, trembling, to touch the mobile phone on the table.

His right hand was still pressed on his chest, slowly applying force to press the hand-tailored suit into an arc. As Qi Hanmu raised his left hand, the cuffs shrank towards his elbow, revealing an exquisite watch on his wrist.

The watch is from a luxury brand, perhaps a gift from a partner to please Mr. San. It seems to be a couple's watch.

The men's version is the night sky, and the women's version is the stars, meaning that the two are indispensable. The stars with the night sky are brighter, and the night sky with the stars is perfect.

Luo Miao's eyelids twitched. When did the Third Master start wearing a watch? Before, didn't he show off the pair of diamond cufflinks that his wife gave him everywhere?

But I have to say that the dial is all black, with gold and silver decorations, and it looks exquisite, but it does seem to be missing something. It is beautiful, but it lacks soul.

The black watch, symbolizing the night, was clasped tightly around Qi Hanmu's left wrist.

The cold white paired with the extreme black makes it look like a malicious venomous snake, but it also seems like a beast guarding the rare treasures in the world, hiding something.

Realizing his own thoughts, Luo Miao immediately shook his head and wanted to laugh at himself. He must have read too many martial arts novels. It was just a watch, but he thought so much about it.

Qi Hanmu's bony hands raised the cell phone, trembling, and it stayed in the air for a long time.

Xia Yiqing sent him an ambiguous message, "What are you doing?"

Qi Hanmu has never relied much on social software for communication, and his background is nothing special, just white and green.

The white bubbles emitted by the person opposite are sweet and a little greasy, but they make people stop in the throat. They can't bear to swallow them, but force themselves to keep the throbbing on the taste buds and let them bloom again.

Xia Yiqing was asking him about himself.

She cares about him.

This is the simplest and crudest interpretation.

His fingertips trembled, his fingers that could press keys on the phone keyboard and dance swiftly on the piano now seemed inexplicably hesitant. He pressed a few keys, pressed delete quickly, typed, typed and deleted, deleted and revised.

This made Luo Miao very anxious watching from the side.

"Actually," Luo Miao thought about the seven or eight people he had called and the people waiting for Qi Hanmu to hold him accountable, so he decided to take a risk.

"You can relax a little and treat Madam as a friend. Just treat Madam as a normal person. Madam won't be surprised by your words."

"No..." Qi Hanmu, who had just faced countless defensive managers and remained calm and composed, calmly pointing out their problems, now slowly bent over, bent his knuckles, and pressed them against his solar plexus.

"You don't understand."

A gust of wind slipped out from the crack of the window that was not closed tightly, making a crackling sound. Outside, the sound of rain gradually grew louder, like a person's desperate cry under his breath, and it hit the eaves with a ping-pong sound, which made people inexplicably frightened.

Qi Hanmu kept his head down, looking at his phone like a statue, then suddenly twitched and shuddered.

On ordinary days, there is always a layer of low pressure around him, making people afraid to approach him. Now his aura suddenly weakened, and he seemed a bit lonely for no reason.

The momentary fragility of a strong man is like the rage of a coward. It not only attracts attention, but also causes countless undercurrents to surge in people's hearts, as if they are about to burst out from their throats.

"Third Master," Luo Miao didn't dare to speak louder, breathing carefully, "The doctor also said..."

"How about going to find her?"
