Chapter 90 Why is this little mouth so naughty?
Gently pulling up the sleeves of Jiang Qin's pajamas to cover her wrists, Huo Sili felt a night breeze blowing in and went over to close the window a little smaller.
As I closed the window, it suddenly occurred to me that four years had passed, and she still hadn't gotten into the habit of turning on the air conditioner after the weather turned cool.
But he knew that her spending habits had changed over the past four years, but this one thing remained the same, which meant it wasn't just about being frugal, but rather about her preferences. After autumn arrived, she couldn't stand having the air conditioning on at night, even if it was just warm air.
Huo Sili thought as he found a change of clothes and prepared to open the door to go out to the second bedroom bathroom to take a shower.
Perhaps this marriage really should be made public.
Just as Lu Xiuyuan said, it's secondary whether others know or not, but those in the industry should know.
It should be known that Huo Sili and Jiang Qin are a legally protected couple.
But at that very moment, Horstley pressed down the doorknob, about to pull the door open and leave.
Behind her on the large bed, Jiang Qin turned over, probably because she suddenly felt uncomfortable sleeping or had a nightmare.
She suddenly started humming something, but you could tell from her tone that she was very scared.
Horst's brows furrowed suddenly, and he almost immediately turned and went to the bedside.
When I got to the bedside, I saw that Jiang Qin had her eyes closed, but her brows were obviously furrowed. She was shaking her head from time to time and turning her body around with large movements, as if she was hiding from something in fear in her dream.
Huo Sili frowned even more deeply, quickly put down the clothes in his hands, and leaned down to call her softly.
"Qinqin, Qinqin."
Jiang Qin turned her head less frequently, as if she had heard something and was trying to determine if she had misheard.
Huo Sili tried calling Jiang Qin's nickname a few more times.
Jiang Qin, who had her eyes closed, suddenly stopped, as if she hesitated for a moment before making a definite judgment.
Seeing her calm down, the worry that had just been rising in Huo Sili's heart gradually subsided.
After observing for a while and seeing that Jiang Qin was sleeping peacefully, Huo Sili gently picked up the clothes he had just put down, and slowly got up and left.
But before he could take two steps, the person on the bed suddenly shouted something.
To Horstley, the words sounded strangely familiar.
The man, who was about to leave, turned back to the bedside and leaned over.
This time I heard it clearly—
"Chi Shen!"
Chi Shen!
Huo Sili's eyes darkened instantly, becoming as deep as an inkwell.
His gaze fell on the sleeping woman's face, which, in her sleep, had lost some of its aloofness and gained a more gentle and docile quality.
Huo Sili reached out, his long, warm, and rough hand caressing Jiang Qin's cheek, sliding down little by little, and grasping her small, snow-white chin. In that instant, a rare obsession appeared in his dark pupils.
He tightened his grip slightly.
My fingertips touched her lips.
Why is this little mouth so naughty?
Who was she calling just now?
Huo Chishen?
Jiang Qin, who was asleep, felt the pressure on her face, shook her head uncomfortably, and reached out to pry it off.
But when he's awake, he's no match for him, let alone when he's asleep.
Fortunately, Horst still retained his composure. Seeing that her brows had furrowed again, he suddenly loosened his grip.
He turned and walked quickly outside.
Click, the master bedroom door was forcibly closed gently.
……
The next day, when Jiang Qin woke up, the bed next to her was cold.
As soon as she went downstairs, Horstley, who usually sat in the dining chair waiting for her, was not there.
However, Jiang Qin didn't care much about it, and even thought it was perfectly normal.
In fact, there was the time last year when he gave her a seemingly abrupt breakup and a cold war.
Jiang Qin had already built up a defense mechanism in her mind. Whenever he was nice to her, she would always assume that he could gain something from it.
That way, if one day he suddenly takes away the kindness he has given her, she won't feel too bad.
Perhaps there was no profit to be made, or perhaps he realized she still insisted on divorcing him, so he was too lazy to waste any more time maintaining this precarious marriage.
With that in mind, Jiang Qin's breakfast eating speed wasn't affected much.
Because all of this seemed to be things she had anticipated.
After all, no matter what.
Huo Sili grew up in a wealthy family. How could a young nobleman like him really fall in love with some Cinderella?
Fairy tales are just for reading, nothing more.
In reality, it's better to be realistic.
“Madam.” Jiang Qin came out carrying her bag. Uncle Yang was already waiting in his car as usual.
Jiang Qin quickly got into the car, fastened her seatbelt, and smiled, "Okay, let's go."
It's still quite early, so there's no traffic jam yet.
Jiang Qin was actually a little surprised by this, since in her memory, Huo Sili hadn't left for the company this early for quite some time.
But the truth is, when she arrived at the floor where the president's office was located, the atmosphere in the entire area was very subtle.
At a glance, Jiang Qin knew that Huo Sili was already in the president's office, and most of the employees on this floor had probably been given a cold scolding by Huo Sili.
This person becomes sarcastic when he's in a bad mood, a fact that Jiang Qin only discovered after spending a year with Huo Sili.
When they first secretly married, he kept a low profile in front of her. So much so that when she first came to Huo's Group, she once overheard an old employee complaining that Huo Sili was so aloof and imposing, saying that she could hardly breathe when Huo Sili came to inspect.
At that time, she thought that maybe people watched too many TV dramas. How could Huo Sili be so scary?
But after dealing with Huo Sili because of her pregnancy some time ago, Jiang Qin now knows all too well that Huo Sili is indeed terrifying, especially his cold words, which are the most hurtful.
I won't use a single swear word, but I'll still leave you battered and bruised.
The oppressive atmosphere in the office was really not good for her physical and mental health. Remembering the doctor's advice to keep a cheerful mood, Jiang Qin took a deep breath before pushing open the office door.
However, before she even stepped inside, Jiang Qin stopped abruptly upon seeing the scene within.
Li Xueqian, whose body was mostly encircled by Huo Sili, turned around to look at her innocently.
"Secretary Jiang, good morning! Um, please don't misunderstand...!"
Jiang Qin tightened her grip on her bag strap. She didn't like him anymore, but couldn't he at least refrain from doing something so blatantly infidelity so early in the morning?
Jiang Qin glanced at Li Xueqian, then at Huo Sili, who looked at her with a cold expression.
He closed the door, picked up his bag, and continued walking inside.
After placing the bag on her desk, Jiang Qin finally looked over and gave the two adulterers a proper look.
"What misunderstanding do I have? Miss Li, if you want to climb the social ladder, there's no need to be in such a hurry. The way you're doing it right now really makes you look like a monkey climbing a tree."
Li Xueqian's face turned green instantly, clearly not expecting Jiang Qin to suddenly say such harsh words.
Beside her, Huo Sili raised an eyebrow and looked over with deep dark eyes. Jiang Qin didn't even glance at him, sat down, turned on her computer, and immediately went into work mode.
