Chapter 100 I'm already married, I have a wife, and it won't change
"What happened? Was the driver drunk?"
In the VIP ward of the hospital, Horsley sat on the accompanying bench next to the bed.
Li Xueqin leaned against the head of the bed. Upon hearing this, her pale little face shook slightly, looking fragile and pitiful.
"No, maybe he is not familiar with the road conditions."
Next to her, Yuan Yue was peeling an apple for Li Xueqian. Upon hearing this, the tip of the knife slipped and the intact peel broke.
The peel fell into the trash can and made a quite slight sound when it hit the plastic bag.
Huo Sili caught it in an instant, raised his eyebrows slightly, and moved his eyes over.
"Isn't she your assistant? She wasn't in the car with you? How come you have broken bones but she is unharmed?"
Li Xueqian's eyes were about to follow Huo Sili, when suddenly, Huo Sili's gaze moved back to her.
Unexpectedly, Huo Sili looked back at her again. Li Xueqian, who wanted to study Huo Sili's mood at the moment, suddenly became a little froze in expression, but it was only a blink of an eye, and she returned to her pitiful appearance just now.
But in the blink of an eye, Horsley seemed to have caught it and suddenly stood up from the accompanying bench.
Li Xueqian, who was leaning against the head of the bed, felt her heart sink. Her face looked a little strange, but her voice was innocent and puzzled: "Brother Sili?"
Huo Sili glanced at Li Xueqian and then at Yuan Yue.
"Since you are injured, you don't have to come to the anniversary celebration that is about to start. Just stay here and recover."
What does this mean? He is leaving?
Li Xueqian was a little anxious, "Brother Sili, can you stay with me for a while longer? My hand hurts."
"I'm not a painkiller. If your hand hurts, just ring the bell to call the paramedic. There's no point in me staying."
"But it doesn't hurt that much when you're here," Li Xueqian said in a coquettish tone, pursing her lips as she spoke, "I got into a car accident because I was going to attend the Huo's anniversary celebration. Brother Si Li, please just pity me."
There was no change in Huo Sili's expression, and Li Xueqin probably thought that this was a sign that Huo Sili was softening his heart.
Looking at Huo Sili, he suddenly added: "In the past, you were very good to me."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Yue, who was peeling an apple nearby, lowered her head, turned to the side, and couldn't help but look at the ceiling.
In an instant, Horsley seemed to finally realize something and frowned deeply.
"Li Xueqian, did you make a mistake?"
Horsley's tone was very cold, but sometimes it was this kind of coldness that was most like a knife.
Li Xueqian's face turned pale. She tried to keep her composure and looked up at the tall Huo Sili. "What went wrong?"
Huo Sili remained calm, but compared to before, his words were more pronounced.
"You misunderstood my feelings for you."
"The reason why I treat you well is because you saved my life six years ago. I treat you well because of your life-saving grace."
"But I have no other feelings for you except for saving my life, and."
Li Xueqian's hands, hidden under the snow-white blanket of the hospital bed, were clenched into fists. "And what?"
Huo Sili raised his thin lips slightly, "Besides, I'm already married. I have a wife, and that won't change."
"I used to think that since you were an actor, you must know more about relationships than I do. But today, I understand that maybe you misunderstood something. If that's the case, I'll explain it to you clearly."
"I hope you won't do anything that goes beyond the rules in the future."
After saying this, Huo Sili looked at Li Xueqian deeply and suddenly added.
"Remember what I told you before? There won't be a next time."
"But since she's not here today, I'll just assume you didn't commit this 'next time'. But you yourself, as an adult, have some self-awareness."
Huo Sili's back disappeared at the elevator entrance. Li Xueqin stretched her neck to look, but could no longer see his shadow.
"Sister Xuexue, do you want some apples? They are all cut up."
Yuan Yue picked up the plate with both hands and handed it over.
Bang——! !
The whole thing and the plate were overturned by Li Xueqin.
Crazy, really crazy.
No love? Don't like it? How is that possible! !
…
Huo’s headquarters, business banquet hall on the eighth floor.
As the anniversary celebration was about to start, the special guests and staff had basically arrived.
In the president's secretariat, Lin Xiaoyu looked at the empty seat next to her and sent a message to Jiang Qin again in the gradually quiet banquet hall, but she never received a reply.
The uneasiness in my heart grew.
Just then, a tall and slender figure came out from the door.
Lin Xiaoyu's heart dropped. It seemed that she was overthinking it.
Sister Qin came here with Mr. Huo.
But the next second, after noticing that handsome figure, no one else followed.
Lin Xiaoyu's heart, which had just relaxed, suddenly began to beat faster again.
I looked at the time again and there were only two minutes left until the start.
In my impression, Sister Qin is always in the habit of preparing in advance for everything she does, especially for offline activities like this. She always arrives at the venue early, even if not early, at least ten minutes in advance.
When taking care of her before, Sister Qin also emphasized the concept of time many times.
So, how come the show is about to start in two minutes and she hasn’t arrived yet?
The time changed again, with only one minute left.
Lin Xiaoyu couldn't help it after all, so she stood up and greeted the old employee next to her.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
"Go ahead, go ahead. When you come back, bend over and make less noise. It won't be good if those bosses see you." The old employee kindly reminded her.
Lin Xiaoyu said yes, stood up and walked out of the venue quickly.
At the same time, Huo Sili, who was already standing on the high platform, cast a hawk-like gaze over and frowned sharply.
Suddenly, all the noises in the banquet hall seemed to become quieter, including the voice of the female host who was inviting him to speak.
"Mr. Huo, Mr. Huo?"
"Well, okay." Horsley picked up the microphone and began to speak.
The pleasant voice with a steady and serious tone spread to every corner of the room through the speakers in the banquet hall.
Everyone in the audience looked at the stage intently, either in admiration, respect, or fear.
Suddenly, a rapid ring rang.
There were cracks in Horsley's speech, which was not even slightly off the mark.
At the same time, Horsley's gaze fell on the seat again and saw that no one was sitting there.
The cell phone was suddenly pulled out, and after scanning the note, Horsley quickly swiped to answer the call and walked out quickly.
The people in the audience who had been listening attentively throughout the entire lecture were stunned. What was going on?
…
Woof! Woof woof!
Jiang Qin was awakened by the barking of a dog.
Before I woke up, I smelled a foul odor.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a pitch-black space. There was movement below, and a whistle sounded from somewhere.
Perhaps because the fear has passed, I am not so scared now.
After a while, his mind became clearer and Jiang Qin determined that he was not on the ground.
But in a truck that was heading to an unknown place.
She was locked up with the dog.
But who did this? Who can accomplish these things?
Is it... Li Xueqian?
