Chapter 45 Pushing her against the wall, interlocking fingers and kissing deeply
"Didn't you have breakfast this morning? You're not usually this hungry at this time."
Jiang Qin paused slightly while chewing the food, thinking that if it is a blessing, it will come, and if it is a disaster, it will come.
But she had expected this, and now she felt that her acting skills should be good. "I ate in the morning, but not much."
Jiang Qin's tone was very calm, so calm that it was indifferent, as if she didn't care at all.
After saying that, she continued eating.
Maybe Huo Sili sensed the hidden meaning in her words and stopped asking. But even though he stopped asking, Jiang Qin was even more cautious this time.
What dishes to pick up with chopsticks was carefully considered, and fortunately nothing went wrong afterwards.
Twenty minutes later, lunch was over. Jiang Qin put down her chopsticks and took a napkin to wipe her mouth.
Then he looked at Horsley.
But when she looked up, she noticed that Huo Sili had put down his chopsticks at some point and was obviously waiting for her.
Jiang Qin's heart paused slightly, but her face remained calm as she met Huo Sili's deep black eyes, her eyes and tone very indifferent.
"What do you want to talk about? Go ahead."
But just as Huo Sili opened his mouth, he was interrupted. The elevator opened and the old butler Zhou Fu came out in a hurry.
"Second Young Master! Second Young Master's Wife! The old lady wants you to go over now!"
Huo Sili glanced at Zhou Fu, pursed his slightly open thin lips, and stood up from his seat.
Jiang Qin lowered her eyes slightly, her face turned a little pale, and the moment she heard the words, she almost immediately got up from the dining chair and hurried to the elevator.
Zhou Fu looked at Jiang Qin who came in, opened his mouth and respectfully called her "Madam Second Young Master". His eyes fell on Huo Sili who was still walking slowly. He thought of something and reminded Huo Sili sincerely.
"Second Young Master, the old lady was very angry when she woke up, especially at you. She was so angry that she smashed the birthday gift you gave her last year, which she loved very much!"
Hearing this, Jiang Qin's face, which was already pale in the elevator, suddenly became even uglier.
At the old lady’s birthday party last year, Huo Sili gave her a jade Buddha statue, wishing her to always smile.
Although it was a birthday gift given to the old lady in his name, the Buddha statue was actually carved from the material that she and he had chosen together, and the price of that piece of material alone was as high as eight figures.
It took them a lot of time and effort to find that good material.
Before presenting the gift, she and he had taken the Buddha statue to the temple together to ask the abbot to consecrate it and pray for the old lady, and the old lady knew about it.
The old lady usually worships Buddha. Although she doesn't go to the point of being superstitious all day long, she has always been very respectful to everything related to Buddha. But now she was so angry that she smashed all the Buddha statues, which shows how angry she is this time.
At this time, Huo Sili finally entered the elevator. Zhou Fu quickly reached out and pressed the door closing button, pointing to the first floor.
Jiang Qin looked at Huo Sili. The man noticed it out of the corner of his eye and glanced over, "Are you scared?"
Jiang Qin pursed her lips and looked away.
Zhou Fu is the old lady's eyes. As long as Zhou Fu is around, Jiang Qin doesn't want to say more.
…
On the third floor of the main building, when the elevator opened, Mrs. Huo was being persuaded by her personal maid, Sister Wu, to have dinner.
In the elevator, Zhou Fu was the last one to come out, but the first to approach Qiu Huilan.
"Madam, the second young master and his wife are here." Zhou Fu spoke with extreme caution and respect.
At the elevator door, Jiang Qin glanced at Huo Sili.
Horsley stood there, not looking at her, and he didn't look worried or anxious at all.
Ultimately, it was not her fault that the old lady fainted, but she was the direct cause. Jiang Qin felt guilty, and when she saw that Huo Sili had no intention of helping, she decided to go over by herself.
But she had just taken half a step when her hand suddenly felt hot. Jiang Qin was slightly startled and lowered her head. Huo Sili's big hand held hers tightly.
Looking up, his eyes were locked on hers, and underneath, he was holding her hand normally, but with an irresistible momentum, his fingers caressing and teasing, gradually his palm was touching hers, and his fingers were intertwined with hers.
His palms were rough and warm, she felt the temperature was very high, and his movements were extremely skillful.
Almost instantly, her thoughts were brought back to a year ago, the night that truly connected her and him.
It reminded her of the time when he held her hand like this, pushed her against the wall, and kissed her deeply with their fingers intertwined.
Green, clumsy, fierce and disorganized.
It reminded her of the next day when she complained to him in front of him.
"Horsley, you're such a bad kisser! You don't look like you're 27, you look like you just turned 18!"
He smiled and said, "I'll just take it as Qinqin complimenting me on my youth."
She puffed up her cheeks, and he came over to kiss her, apologizing quickly, "I was wrong, I know I was wrong, I must practice hard."
She was unhappy again. People who are in love are very sensitive to certain details. "Practice? How do you want to practice?"
Horsley hugged her and kissed her twice more. "What are you thinking about in your little head? Of course, you're practicing with my baby."
When Jiang Qin came back to her senses, she was already being led by Huo Sili to the old lady.
Horsley called the old lady, "Grandma."
Jiang Qin also hurriedly called out "Grandma", and at this moment, she noticed that Qiu Huilan was not looking at her or Huo Sili, but at her and his clasped hands.
After looking for several seconds, he slowly glanced at Horsley.
A strange tone of voice said, "Oh, are you acting in front of my old woman?"
Jiang Qin's heart skipped a beat, but she remained calm and looked at the old lady.
"Grandma, we didn't..."
However, as soon as the words came out, Qiu Huilan looked over, and the old lady's face looking at her was obviously still kind and loving.
"Qinqin, don't speak for him! He is just spoiled! Let this brat talk to me himself!"
After saying this, the old lady looked at Horsley, and her kindness disappeared in an instant, and she looked fierce.
"Speak up! You are twenty-eight, not 0.8. Are you dumb or can't you speak in long sentences?"
Jiang Qin, who witnessed the old lady's double standards in front of her for the first time, opened her eyes wide: "..."
He raised his eyes and glanced at Huo Sili again, not quite understanding why this man stopped talking.
But thinking that the old lady had to lie down on the bed early in the morning, she really didn't want to make her angry again, so she tried to shake Horsley's hand, signaling him to speak quickly.
And this grip seems to be really useful.
Huo Sili looked at Qiu Huilan and spoke with a smile.
"We're not acting, grandma, Qinqin and I are good..."
"What's good about that!"
The old lady interrupted him loudly, her tone obviously filled with anger of disappointment.
Jiang Qin's heart suddenly rose to her chest. Just as she was about to ask the old lady to calm down, Qiu Huilan continued.
"If it was really good, why would Qinqin cut her wrists? If it was really good, why did Qinqin suddenly want to resign? It's good, who are you fooling? It must be you who has the problem!"
As she spoke, Qiu Huilan called Zhou Fu's name: "Zhou Fu, bring the things over here for the Second Young Master to see."
Zhou Fu exclaimed and hurried to get it.
At the same time, Jiang Qin couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Thing, what is it?
She looked at Horsley. Horsley's eyes were calm, not looking at her, and he seemed to be thinking.
The next second, Zhou Fu handed a folded newspaper to Huo Sili with both hands.
The old lady's voice rang out.
"Take a good look at what these are! I don't know what kind of girl a 22-year-old brat like you likes!"
"If this is a misunderstanding, Qinqin is here today, you should explain it to Qinqin in front of me!"
Horsley frowned, took the newspaper in his hand, spread it out, glanced at it, and his expression turned cold in an instant.
