Chapter 40: The humble pursuit of my wife (Part 2)
The Huo family had a cooperation with Yunteng Technology, and it was Xie Youan who was received by He Xu at that time.
Huo Sili looked in the direction where He Xu pointed, and his black pupils suddenly sank.
The next second, the cigarette butt was fiercely extinguished in the ceramic ashtray, and Horsley pushed the door open and strode out of the car.
Before leaving, he told He Xu: "Wash the car."
He Xu agreed without hesitation.
Upstairs, Jiang Qin was arranged by Su Lejia to sit on the sofa in the living room, with two remote controls placed on the warm-toned coffee table in front of her.
"The air conditioner for the living room is on the left. You can set the temperature to whatever temperature is comfortable for you." Su Lejia introduced to her.
Then pick up the longer one on the right.
"The one on the right is for TV. I know you don't usually like watching TV, but you're celebrating my birthday today, and I'm the birthday girl, so you have to listen to me, relax, and pick something you like to watch, okay."
Jiang Qin looked at Su Lejia, staring at the kitchen, her mind obviously not there.
"Don't you want to eat the longevity noodles I made?"
Two seconds later, Jiang Qin spoke up, her tone a little sour, "Why, Zhou Junxuan went in, and you won't let me cook for you?"
Su Lejia's face turned a little red, and she said "ah". Jiang Qin looked at Su Lejia and smiled, but didn't say anything else.
Seeing her best friend being loved by someone, she was naturally happy, and saying it out loud was just to tease her.
After all, Jiang Qin naturally noticed that Su Lejia seemed to be afraid that her mood would be affected by seeing Huo Sili again in the villa.
After entering the house, he stayed with her all the time, letting her drink water and eat fruit, and introducing her to the cute new ornaments in the house, obviously taking care of her feelings.
"Okay, you're the birthday girl today, you don't have to take care of me here, I'm fine. You should go and keep Zhou Junxuan company. You two haven't seen each other for a few days." Jiang Qin said.
Zhou Junxuan went to the south on a business trip for more than half a month some time ago. Su Lejia and Zhou Junxuan have been together since the college entrance examination, and their relationship has been very stable until now.
As the saying goes, a short absence makes the heart grow fonder. Needless to say, Su Lejia must miss Zhou Junxuan very much.
However, Su Lejia has a proud and arrogant personality when it comes to love. Jiang Qin coaxed her a few more times before she "reluctantly" agreed, "Okay, okay, then I'll go over and accompany him."
After saying that, he got up and went to the kitchen.
Seeing Su Lejia coming in, Xie Youan inside was obviously quite considerate. He smiled gently at Su Lejia and then said.
"Then you two stay here, I'll go out and buy some drinks. What do you like to drink?"
Zhou Junxuan wanted to say no - he and Xie Youan were buddies who met in a high school club. They had a good relationship at that time, but they hadn't seen each other for many years. The last time they met face to face was yesterday.
You read it right, it was yesterday, Xie Youan, the mysterious boss of his company came to inspect the workstations below.
He then realized that his current boss was actually a good friend he knew from high school.
And now that there is this gap in status, it still puts some pressure on him, making him even more unwilling to owe Xie Youan a favor.
But before Zhou Junxuan could say anything, Su Lejia thanked him generously and listed a few drinks.
Then he said to Xie Youan tactfully: "Boss Xie, well, Qinqin and I both hate the smell of alcohol. Today is my birthday and I don't want to smell that smell. Please don't buy any alcohol."
Xie Youan also quickly responded with a smile, "No problem, I don't like drinking on weekdays, I'll listen to Miss Su."
Seeing this, Zhou Junxuan had no choice but to say thank you and asked Xie Youan to remember to take the door card on the entrance cabinet to go out.
Xie Youan responded with a "OK" and came out of the kitchen, but did not leave immediately. Instead, he walked towards Jiang Qin very naturally.
"I'm going to go out and buy some drinks. Jiang Qin, what do you like to drink? Room temperature or iced?"
"Ah?" Su Lejia asked Jiang Qin to watch TV. Perhaps because she seldom watched TV, Jiang Qin actually found something she liked after watching it for a while. She was so absorbed in it that she didn't hear clearly what Xie Youan said.
"Sorry, I was so absorbed in watching. What did you say?"
Xie Youan smiled gently, not unhappy at all, and quickly repeated it.
This time Jiang Qin replied quickly, "Orange juice, room temperature is fine, thank you."
The previous conjecture was overturned by Jiang Qin herself. At this moment, she really regarded Xie Youan as a good friend. When speaking, Jiang Qin's tone was almost relaxed and natural, as if she was interacting with someone close to her.
Xie Youan couldn't help but smile even more, "You're welcome..."
However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door in front.
There was an unexpected guest at the door.
Due to the trauma of her childhood, Jiang Qin was quite sensitive to knocking sounds, so she naturally heard those two sounds.
She pressed pause and looked towards the kitchen; the glass door was closed.
Zhou Junxuan was cooking inside, the range hood was making quite a loud noise, and Su Lejia was helping him.
"I'll go over and take a look."
Jiang Qin stood up without hesitation.
She had been here several times and was familiar with the neighbors. "Maybe that neighbor auntie came to give Lele a gift."
Previously, a neighbor aunt received help from Su Lejia and was grateful for the help. After that, she would give Su Lejia gifts on her birthday and other holidays, usually during the day.
Jiang Qin naturally thought it should be the other person. The aunt also knew her and Zhou Junxuan. If she suddenly saw Xie Youan, she would probably think too much.
Rumors can kill people, so it's always better to be careful.
Next, this is Xie Youan’s first time here.
It would be very inconsiderate to let guests entertain guests.
Thinking this, Jiang Qin went to open the door, but as soon as she opened it, she regretted it.
I regret that I trusted the security of this apartment too much!
Didn’t we say that I have to verify my ID card before entering the apartment?
What kind of person is this? He dares to break into a private house in broad daylight with his ID card registered? Are you crazy?
Jiang Qin was startled.
She reacted and pushed hard on the door, but Xie Youan came to her quickly and said, "I'll do it."
But it was too late. Huo Sili's big, bony hands directly grabbed the door panel.
The veins on the back of his hand were exposed. He pushed with one arm, and not only did the door not close, it opened a little further.
Jiang Qin subconsciously took out her cell phone to call the police, but the next second, the face of the person outside appeared and Jiang Qin was stunned.
After seeing who was outside the door, Xie Youan raised his eyebrows slightly, "Boss Huo?"
Huo Sili's gaze passed over Xie Youan and fell on Jiang Qin. Jiang Qin's face was obviously ugly, and he turned and walked inside.
Huo Sili's eyes dimmed, and when he looked at Xie Youan, his gaze became extremely cold again.
"Why, Mr. Xie is still holding on, are you determined to go against me?"
Xie Youan was about to say something, but Huo Sili spoke up and interrupted him.
"Do you, Yunteng, have the capital to do this?"
Xie Youan's expression changed slightly.
Horsley stared at him, his tone light.
"I'm not afraid to tell you that she and I are married. Be smart and get out of the way."
After saying that, Horsley put his other hand on the door and pushed it with a little force.
Xie Youan's pupils suddenly shrank, and he watched himself take half a step back, his face full of disbelief.
Huo Sili pushed the door open easily, strode in, and bumped into Xie Youan's shoulder.
Turning back, his sword-like eyebrows slightly raised, revealing a rare cold and unruly look, and his voice was heavy with each word.
"Mr. Xie wants to learn how to steal someone's wife like a male mistress, which is troublesome. Let's practice first."
