Chapter 81 Is it okay not to get a divorce?
Isn't it a bit unreasonable for her not to pick him up?
When Jiang Qin saw this sentence, she just found it funny.
She really wanted to retort to Huo Sili, but he said that things were almost done and he would come back early.
But that was not the case at all, he was just lying to her on purpose.
Isn’t that even more unreasonable?
But Huo Sili's words were supported by the old lady. Jiang Qin really didn't want to pay attention to him, but she couldn't ignore the old lady.
Qiu Huilan called.
An exceptionally kind and gentle voice: "Qinqin, Si Li has arrived at the airport. Grandma's car will be coming to Huo's soon. Can you accompany grandma to pick up Si Li?"
This natural disaster in a foreign country also spread internationally. The old lady was a strong woman when she was young and developed the habit of reading current affairs news and major news from around the world.
This time when Horsley went there on a business trip, the old lady couldn't help but worry about the safety of her grandson.
When Huo Sili returned to China this time, Qiu Huilan came to pick him up in person, so Jiang Qin was not surprised.
Finally, I went downstairs and waited for the car carrying the old lady. Soon, the car drove to the airport.
Jiang Qin looked at the scenery along the way, trying hard to clear her heart of unhappiness. She thought that the old lady was beside her, and she would have to put on a good show when she saw Huo Sili later.
But when the car arrived at the airport, there was someone else who arrived before her and the old lady.
"Hey, who is that guy standing so close to my grandson? The brat doesn't even know to stand further away."
Seeing a woman in a short skirt standing next to Horsley, Qiu Huilan frowned and took out her reading glasses from her bag and put them on.
Then he saw the woman's face clearly, "Hey, this person..."
Looks a little familiar?
"It's Miss Li." Jiang Qin beside him said, "That time on the third floor of the old house, you met grandma once."
Jiang Qin was not surprised at all that Li Xueqin was here.
But for the old lady, it shouldn’t be too “strange”.
"Ms. Li, oh, that one from that day... Hey, didn't she know that the brat was married?!"
Qiu Huilan's eyelids twitched as she spoke. She glanced at Jiang Qin, then at Huo Sili who was standing not far in front of her.
I always feel like something is a little weird.
Isn’t her granddaughter-in-law’s reaction too calm?
Then Jiang Qin said, "Miss Li is an artist. Huo and Miss Li have cooperated. Maybe they just happened to say hello when they met."
The old lady's illness has not yet fully recovered. If she were to know now that her good grandson is actually a cheating man, Jiang Qin would inevitably worry that Qiu Huilan would be so angry that she would have a relapse.
Now the old lady's illness is related to whether she can get a smooth divorce in the future. No matter from which perspective, breaking this window paper at this time will do more harm than good.
So she helped in the fight.
Fortunately, Horsley in front still had some sense of propriety.
When she helped the old lady approach, Horsley obviously noticed this side, left the people around him and walked over.
"Grandma, Qinqin."
"Qinqin!" Qiu Huilan said in a strange voice, raised her hand and slapped Huo Sili's arm.
"You know your wife is here to pick you up. You should be more careful with other women. You are 28, not eight. Don't tell me you don't understand this."
As Qiu Huilan spoke, she looked up at her tall grandson and said, "Qinqin is here today, and grandma has made it clear to you, so don't have any crooked thoughts."
"Grandma." Huo Sili opened his mouth and called Qiu Huilan.
Qiu Huilan glared, "Don't shout yet, grandma, I haven't finished what I want to say - I'm telling you, Huo Sili, grandma will only recognize Qinqin as her granddaughter-in-law in this life, so don't do those bad things to me."
"Did you hear me?! If you do anything to let Qinqin down, grandma will punish you!"
Horsley glanced at the old lady as she spoke, then slapped her hand heavily on his arm, and remained silent.
When the old lady was no longer excited, she said solemnly: "Okay, grandma, don't worry, my wife will only be Qinqin, don't think too much."
Qiu Huilan wanted to say, how could she not think about it, given how many things had happened during this period of time.
But the granddaughter-in-law immediately said that it was getting late and they should go home first.
Qiu Huilan finally calmed down.
Because it was really late, and if we went back to Yunhai Huafu now, it would be just past twelve o'clock, which was just the right time for lunch.
But if we start later, Kyoto is already crowded with people, plus it's rush hour, so it's easy to run into traffic jams on the road, and we might arrive later than one o'clock or even later.
The three of them got in the car.
It was just that Jiang Qin wanted to sit with the old lady, but the moment she got on the car, a long arm came from behind her waist.
Huo Sili hugged her and called the old lady's personal maid, "Sister Wu, please sit with grandma and take good care of her."
As he spoke, he moved extremely quickly, loosening his hand around her waist and instead placed his palm against hers, interlocking his fingers.
Jiang Qin had not anticipated Huo Sili's move at all, and it was too late for her to dodge.
Sister Wu got into the car in front of her. Before the door was closed, she met the old lady in front of her. When she saw Sister Wu and Horsley holding hands, she was obviously very happy and smiling.
Jiang Qin wanted to shake off Huo Sili's hand, but she stopped.
"..." She glanced at him and looked away.
He Xu, who was accompanying Huo Sili on the business trip, was right next to them. Seeing the two of them coming over hand in hand, he tactfully opened the car door.
"Madam." He called Jiang Qin with extra respect.
In this situation, Jiang Qin took a deep breath to adjust her mood, and finally got in the car.
Huo Sili followed closely behind, and the car door was closed by He Xu from the outside. As soon as it was closed, Jiang Qin also discovered that there was something unusual about this nanny car today.
In the past, the nanny cars she rode in had fenders designed in front of the second row, but the car she rode in today had fenders designed not only in the second row.
The row where she and Horsley were sitting was the third row, and there was still a partition in front.
Noticing this, Jiang Qin suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart.
Just at this moment, a slender hand appeared in front of him and pressed the baffle raising button.
Half a second later, I felt a sudden warmth against my side.
Jiang Qin was shocked. She quickly picked up her bag and squeezed between herself and Huo Sili. She turned her head and glared at him, shouting in a huff.
"Horsley, what are you doing!..."
But after yelling, I realized that something seemed to be wrong.
A flat, square red velvet box appeared before my eyes.
"I brought you a gift. See if you like it."
Jiang Qin was stunned.
Ever since he inexplicably ignored her a year ago, she noticed his indifference and dared not get close to him anymore.
They never gave each other any gifts again.
So, what does he mean by this?
compensate? To please? Or reward?
Thank her for taking care of the old lady during this time?
Jiang Qin couldn't understand, hence this gift.
"No, I don't want it."
Horsley pursed his lips and held the box forward, "Open it and take a look."
Jiang Qin frowned slightly and shook her head, "No."
As he said this, he turned around and sat up straight, intending to close his eyes and rest.
But who knew that Horsley would stubbornly hand the box to her again.
"You open it and take a look. Maybe you'll like it."
Jiang Qin didn't understand why he was so suddenly stubborn, and she was really tired of dealing with him.
"Huo Sili," Jiang Qin turned her head, her voice was very light, revealing a strong sense of fatigue, "I said, no need."
Huo Sili's eyes dimmed, as if he finally felt the frustration of being rejected, and his stubbornness dissipated.
He just paused and asked her again.
"Why not? Qinqin, we..."
The bell rang and Huo Sili stopped talking.
Jiang Qin curled her fingers slightly, trying to turn her head back and close her eyes to rest, but the next second, the call was hung up and Huo Sili did not answer.
He leaned sideways and looked at her closely, "Can we... still be like before?"
Jiang Qin was startled, and her dark pupils were trembling.
How could he say such a thing?
Are they playing house?
It's just a game. They have to break up after such a mess. How can they just reconcile?
However, reality told her that Horsley was serious.
After four years of secret marriage, it was the first time she heard his voice so trembling and full of pleading.
"Qinqin, let's reconcile and not get divorced, okay? I...I don't want to divorce you."
