Chapter 18 Horsley's Expression Changes Suddenly
There was only a small warm-colored lamp on the bedside in the room, and the whole room was dimly lit.
Huo Sili stepped in and saw Jiang Qin standing with her back to the door. He raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What are you doing?"
At this moment, Jiang Qin was extremely grateful that although she had many childhood traumas, she did not develop a fear of the dark because of them.
The light was not strong, so it was not so clear to see with some small movements. Hearing the sound, Jiang Qin quickly moved his fingers, closed all the open APP interfaces and browser interfaces, and quickly opened the weather app on his phone.
Slide your finger to open the weather forecast for the next 15 days at the bottom, and swipe left again.
Those few days would probably be the busiest time for the Huo family as they prepare for Old Madam Huo's birthday banquet.
The old lady's birthday party is a critical moment, which is related to her divorce. Jiang Qin feels that it is easy to understand when she looks at this time period. It seems that Huo Sili is also impatient for that time.
Turning around and showing him the phone screen at this time would seem too deliberate, so Jiang Qin ignored him for the time being. When Huo Sili came closer, she casually raised the phone in front of his eyes impatiently.
Preemptively asked, "I'm checking the weather. Why, what do you think I'm looking at?"
Huo Sili lowered his eyes and glanced at the phone that Jiang Qin handed over. Without any hesitation, relying on his height and physique, the man grabbed her phone effortlessly with his big hand and took it directly into his hand.
Jiang Qin's pretty eyebrows slightly frowned. Wasn't his action of taking her phone a little too natural?
The scene of seeing Huo Sili naturally taking the snacks from Li Xueqian's hand and putting them into the shopping cart in the supermarket instantly appeared in Jiang Qin's mind, and the corners of Jiang Qin's lips twitched slightly.
Two words popped up in my mind - scumbag!
But unexpectedly, Horsley seemed to be in an even worse mood than her.
Her face, which had shown no emotion just now, suddenly became as gloomy as if a thunderstorm was about to come after she glanced at her phone.
Jiang Qin was just puzzled when Huo Sili suddenly sneered and spoke to her word by word in a cold voice.
"You're so eager to divorce me?"
Jiang Qin really wanted to say, what else?
But looking at Huo Sili's gloomy expression, Jiang Qin felt that she had to change her tone.
There's no way around it. A man of Huo Sili's status probably can't accept that there's a woman who doesn't like him.
Yes, how could Cinderella have the right to not want a prince?
"You think too much." If this young master is really upset and becomes rebellious, she will be the only one who gets hurt in the end. A man of insight is a wise man, so Jiang Qin changed her words in a good-tempered manner.
"I'm just concerned about grandma's birthday party. I want to see what the weather will be like and how high the temperature will be. Aren't we going to pick out new clothes for grandma to wear on her birthday soon? Only by looking at the weather can we choose the right ones, otherwise she will get too hot and too cold when she wears them, which is not good."
What Jiang Qin said was true. During this period of time, she really needed to pick out new clothes for the old lady to wear on the birthday party.
Moreover, this Sunday, which is tomorrow, the matter of choosing new clothes for the old lady for her birthday will be put on the agenda.
Horsley probably believed what she said, and the gloom on his face faded a little, but he still didn't look very good.
But after the phone was handed back to her, Jiang Qin let the matter go. Now that he was there, she naturally couldn't search for those things anymore.
It’s getting late. Unless something unexpected happens, we have to get up early and go back to our old house every Sunday.
Jiang Qin found some change of clothes and quickly went into the bathroom.
The sound of water splashed, and Huo Sili looked towards the bathroom for a few seconds, walked to the bedside table, picked up the mobile phone that Jiang Qin had just put over, and drew the picture to unlock it effortlessly.
When I opened the browser, it showed that incognito browsing was turned on, and the history and favorites columns were empty.
…
The next morning, Jiang Qin came out of the elevator and after asking how everything was going, Aunt Wang gave her a look.
Jiang Qin looked in the direction Wang Ma pointed and saw Li Xueqian standing by the dining table.
The young woman was wearing a light pink knitted long skirt. When she saw her, a sweet smile appeared on her still swollen face.
He said to her in a soft voice, "Secretary Jiang, good morning."
Maybe she had become more open-minded, or maybe it was simply because she slept well last night. Logically, she should feel angry, sad, or contemptuous at this moment, but at this moment, she did not feel any of these emotions.
Jiang Qin's heart was calm, "Good morning, Miss Li."
After saying that, he went straight to the dining table, sat down and started eating breakfast.
Li Xueqin turned her face around with a swelling from being slapped by someone unknown. She glanced at Jiang Qin who was eating breakfast calmly and steadily, and there was obvious shock in her eyes.
What's going on? She is the prime minister of the current era. Isn’t she angry even after all this?
Shouldn't I have a fight with her at this time? Scold her?
Li Xueqian looked at where she was standing. She was clearly standing next to her usual seat on purpose!
His eyes suddenly turned to Aunt Liu who was standing next to Aunt Wang at the other end of the elevator.
Aunt Liu noticed the gaze but didn't dare to respond, because at that moment, the elevator door opened and Huo Sili walked out.
"Sir! Breakfast is ready, just as you like..."
Before he could finish his words, Horsley had already strode towards the dining table.
Li Xueqin originally planned to put on a good show, but who knew that Jiang Qin would not accept it at all.
When she saw Horsley, she didn't know what to say.
But after all, I am a performing arts major, so after thinking about it, I quickly came up with an answer.
"Brother Sili, I have decided on a house to live in, and I am here today to say goodbye to you..."
"Why are you eating here?"
However, before she could finish her words, Li Xueqian saw Huo Sili's eyes fall on Jiang Qin.
Li Xueqin glanced at Jiang Qin, and sparks instantly appeared in her eyes - she had bullied her, and it was bad enough that she just ate snacks, but now she was actually drinking porridge slowly!
But in fact, Jiang Qin was even more confused. Her white moonlight was right here, so why did this person care where she was sitting?
But he asked, and it was early in the morning, and they had to go back to the old house to meet their elders.
Jiang Qin just ignored him, but before she could finish her words, Huo Sili's cell phone suddenly rang.
After picking up the phone, Horsley's expression suddenly changed.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Qin felt nervous. If she remembered correctly, the ringtone just now was the exclusive ringtone that Huo Sili set for the housekeeper of the old house.
Horsley looked at her. The man who was always calm and composed in the face of difficulties now showed a rare trace of panic in his eyes.
"Grandma must have had an attack. She suddenly fainted and is now being taken to the military hospital."
The white porcelain spoon in her hand suddenly loosened, making a crisp sound that chilled her to the bone. Jiang Qin stood up from the dining chair.
