Chapter 67 Jiang Qin's heart was alarmed and she suddenly raised her eyes
Just when I was about to say something, I saw that she had already started eating very seriously.
That look can be described as concentration.
In other words, she didn't even look at him.
Looking up at the clock on the wall, Horsley swallowed what he wanted to say. It was indeed getting late.
But I didn’t expect that I never had a chance to talk to her afterwards——
After finishing dinner, she got up without stopping for a moment and walked towards the elevator.
He wanted to follow her in when she was taking a shower, but he was a step too late. She must have noticed his behavior and closed and locked the door.
She also warned him coldly from inside the door: "If you turn off the gas again, I will go back to the old house this Sunday and will definitely tell grandma. Then we will live separately."
Live separately.
He also mentioned living separately.
What else could Huo Sili say? He could only promise that he wouldn't do that, and that if they wanted to wash alone, then they could wash alone.
So until this moment, the night is already very deep.
Huo Sili finally found an opportunity to chat with Jiang Qin.
But unexpectedly, when she called out Qinqin, Jiang Qin didn't respond at all.
I don’t know if she was simply refusing to communicate with him or if she really fell asleep.
Huo Sili lay on his side, propping up half of his body with one hand, leaning over and slightly lowering his eyes to look at Jiang Qin, who had been sleeping with her back to him since he got into bed.
Jiang Qin was quiet in the dim room, lit only by a warm yellow bedside lamp, with a relaxed look on her face.
He looks like he's sleeping soundly.
Huo Sili leaned closer, but Jiang Qin didn't move at all.
He got closer again, but there was still no movement. For some reason, Horsley felt a little nervous.
I couldn't help but reach out to feel her breath, and I could feel her shallow, even and warm breathing, but the panic still didn't go away.
"Qinqin." Huo Sili called again.
Jiang Qin remained motionless.
Horsley leaned over and kissed her cheek.
Jiang Qin, who had already fallen asleep, only felt a slight itch on her cheek and thought it was a mosquito.
Close your eyes and reach out to catch up.
The back of his finger slapped Horsley's face.
Horsley: “…”
Jiang Qin, who was asleep, was a little hesitant.
Why is the mosquito so big?
But I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes at all.
I thought it was probably because I was too tired and had an illusion.
It’s not a big problem, I’ll talk about it after I wake up.
Next to him, Huo Sili seemed to react to Jiang Qin's reaction, but finally continued to sleep. He had no intention of chatting with Jiang Qin at this time.
After turning off the lights, Huo Sili put his arms around Jiang Qin's waist and closed his eyes before falling asleep.
…
Everything went normal on Friday.
Saturday and Sunday passed in the blink of an eye.
When she opened her eyes again, Jiang Qin was woken up by the alarm clock.
It's a new Monday and it's time for her to go to work.
But it’s probably because the time we get up now is earlier than usual, and the temperature has been dropping gradually in the past few days.
Getting up today was much more difficult than usual.
When I entered the bathroom, my head was still a little dizzy and I could hardly open my eyes.
When washing my face, I almost mistook toothpaste for facial cleanser.
Huo Sili, who was standing next to her washing up, undoubtedly saw Jiang Qin's behavior.
"...How about I give you a day off today?"
Jiang Qin was kneading the bubbles of facial cleanser. Hearing this, she glanced at him and shook her head.
It's a big deal to take another vacation just when you're about to go back to work.
Besides, it’s not really that serious. After all, she just hasn’t woken up yet and the computer is slow to boot up, she’s not really stupid.
But speaking of this.
After washing off the bubbles, Jiang Qin wiped the water off her face with a towel and looked at Huo Sili.
"Thirty days will be up soon. When will the new secretary general be hired? I still have to hand over my work to her."
Horsley, who was applying facial cream next to him, had a look that dimmed when he heard the words.
Looking at Jiang Qin through the mirror, she obviously retracted her gaze and was no longer looking at him.
Horsley's tone was dry.
"Let's talk about it later."
After saying that, he strode out of the bathroom.
Jiang Qin frowned and said, "What else?"
She didn't have the time to talk to him.
Jiang Qin quickly took care of her skin, packed up her bag and went downstairs.
He had been having breakfast with her at home these past few days, so Jiang Qin naturally thought it would be the same today.
But when the elevator door opened and she saw the look in Wang Ma's eyes, Jiang Qin knew something must have changed.
Sure enough, a glance at the dining table.
The seat where Horsley usually sat was empty.
"As soon as the gentleman came down, he went straight out of the yard, got in the car that Xiao He drove over, and left."
Mother Wang came over, her eyes clearly filled with worry.
"Madam, are you and your husband quarreling again?"
Jiang Qin frowned, glanced at the yard, and turned to look at Aunt Wang.
She won't take the blame for something she didn't do.
"No, maybe he's busy today."
But having said that, Jiang Qin also realized one thing. She didn't go to work last week, and she didn't know whether it was Huo Sili's instruction in the work group.
Logically, when he updates his schedule, people who know the inside story, such as He Xu, should report it to the group immediately so that she, as the general secretary, can coordinate it.
Unless it involves confidential information or special circumstances require special treatment, we will choose offline face-to-face communication rather than online communication.
But this time there was no itinerary updated in the group.
But given what happened to Horsley last week, how could he not have changed his schedule? And it was clear that he changed more than one trip.
It can't be that everything that has been changed involves confidential information, right?
And this message was not updated in the group, so she would have to go and confirm it with Huo Sili in person later.
Jiang Qin drank the porridge, his brows furrowed more and more.
Did he do that on purpose?
After all, she had never seen He Xu make any mistakes since he started working.
Not to mention this situation, it was a complete mistake.
…
The last time I went into the Huo’s headquarters building was because Huo Sili logged my WeChat on his office computer.
Come to think of it, several days have passed.
The elevator opened and Jiang Qin returned to the familiar office environment. For some reason, she felt an extremely complicated feeling in her heart.
But I'm not too sad, after all, except...
"Sister Qin! You finally come to work!"
Whoever you think of will be there.
After all, apart from Lin Xiaoyu, the intern she chose as her successor, she had no other concerns about the Huo company.
Lin Xiaoyu just came out of another elevator holding a stack of documents. When she raised her eyes, she noticed Jiang Qin and ran over quickly.
Just when they were about to give each other a happy bear hug, Jiang Qin's eyelids jumped and he put his hand on Lin Xiaoyu's shoulder first.
"Steady and calm."
If she pounced on him in this position, she would probably shake with excitement, and she couldn't bear it now.
After being patted by Jiang Qin, Lin Xiaoyu suddenly deflated like a spring and stood up straight.
He smiled sheepishly at Jiang Qin, "Okay, Sister Qin, I, hey, I passed the test!"
It's been a while since we last met, and we didn't run into each other the last time we came. When Jiang Qin heard the voice and saw that Lin Xiaoyu had obviously integrated more into the Huo family and was obviously more confident, she couldn't help but feel better.
Just when I was about to talk to Lin Xiaoyu again, the door of the president's office was pushed open.
When she saw who was standing at the door frame, Lin Xiaoyu didn't dare to stay next to Jiang Qin any longer.
Huo Sili glanced at Jiang Qin, then looked towards the people in the office area in front who were obviously looking over here.
He said coldly, "Why, are you all free?"
Everyone looking over here instantly shortened their necks, each doing their own thing, with a serious look on their faces.
Jiang Qin hadn't noticed that so many people were looking at her until Huo Sili glanced at her. She only realized it then, but she didn't have any opinion about it.
Since she was little, she has been looked at with inquiring eyes countless times for various reasons. If she always cares about those things, she won't be able to live her own life.
The next second after Huo Sili spoke, Lin Xiaoyu quickly returned to her workstation.
Because she was afraid of getting hungry again early in the afternoon, she ate a lot for breakfast. When she went upstairs, Jiang Qin looked at the time and it was almost time.
Naturally, she also went to the president's office and planned to work.
But seeing that Horsley was about to come out, she moved aside, thinking that she would wait for him to come out before going in.
Unexpectedly, Horsley glanced at her.
Suddenly, he turned and walked inside.
Jiang Qin: “?” Did you forget to take something inside?
Just as she was confused, Horsley suddenly turned around and said to her, "What are you standing there for? Come in."
Jiang Qin was puzzled, but she didn't say it directly to him. After all, the door of the president's office was still open, and there were quite a few employees on this floor.
Jiang Qin walked in, turned around and closed the door.
But before she could turn around, Horsley, who had already walked inside, suddenly came back and approached her.
Jiang Qin's heart suddenly started to ring with alarm bells, and she raised her eyes suddenly.
