Looking at the three cars that left, Kong Yue sighed helplessly. When she turned around to look at Yuan Yi, she didn’t forget to complain, “Qingqing has been spoiled by Huo Qi. I wonder who she takes after, leaving so easily!”
When Yuan Yi heard this, he restrained his pensive emotions. When he turned to look at Kong Yue, he comforted her, “The two of them aren’t willful children. This can’t be helped. Huo Qi has indeed been out for too long. It’s normal for the Huo family to summon him back! Besides, hasn’t he already arranged for us? Don’t worry, we’ll go back tomorrow.”
Kong Yue naturally knew that Huo Qi was a good person, but there was a faint uneasiness in her heart, as though something was about to happen.
However, before Kong Yue could try to figure out where this feeling came from, she was pulled back into the house by Wu Mu with her arms around her. This time, she shook her head to chase away those uneasy emotions.
Su Qing and Huo Qi, who had finally successfully escaped from the villa, heaved a sigh of relief when they felt the calm atmosphere in the car. Su Qing scratched Huo Qils hand that was holding hers. After some thought, she asked softly, “What did Xing Lei tell you? I went to change my clothes just now, so I didn’t hear your call!”
After hearing Su Qing’s voice, Huo Qi pulled himself out of his thoughts. He held Su Qing’s hand and kissed it casually. He explained in a low voice, “Xing Lei said that Huo Feng’s condition is very bad. When he was saved from the sea, he was covered in injuries and only had a brother his side, but even that brother had drowned! If it weren’t for the fact that Huo Feng still had some foresight and had sent him a location signal previously, he would have been long dead before Xing Lei brought his men over.”
Looking at Huo Qi’s tightly furrowed brows, Su Qing felt a little upset. She moved towards Huo Qi and was immediately hugged by the man. Leaning against Huo Qi’s broad shoulder, Su Qing said gently, “It’s fine as long as Huo Feng is fine. You’ll definitely avenge the other brothers. Don’t think too much now. Before we get on the plane later, you can still lean on me and sleep for a few minutes!”
Huo Qi was amused by Su Qing’s words. He rubbed his chin against the furry hat on Su Qing’s head and asked with a muffled laugh, “Are you sure I’m the one leaning on you?”
Su Qing also smiled gloomily, looking a little lazy. She stuck her head out of Huo Qi’s arms and wrapped her arms around his neck. She looked up and kissed the side of his face gently, then said in a low voice, “You can lean on me.”
A glint flashed across Huo Qi’s eyes. He lowered his head and kissed her lips before replying hoarsely, “Don’t provoke me here. There’s still someone in the car! ”
Su Qing was shocked by the man’s thoughts.
However, before Su Qing could be surprised for long, Huo Qi took a deep breath and continued, “I still have a lot of things to deal with. Lean on me and rest. I’ll call you when we get on the plane!”
Su Qing looked at Huo Qi deeply for a long time before suddenly smiling sweetly at him. She said gently, “If you need my help, just tell me. I still have some say in the Divine Seal Bureau. Also, Third Master has a place in Namphan’s military and political circles. Perhaps he can help you investigate who did this behind the scenes. This way, you won’t be unable to find any clues after you go over! Actually, I can follow you. My third brother found me a job in Namphan. It’s a piano competition with Yan Bei!”
“Yan Bei? A piano competition? How can a godforsaken place like Namphan hold a piano competition? Will your third brother lie to you?”
Su Qing had clearly spoken for a long time, but Mr. Huo seemed to have only heard Yan Bei’s name. He didn’t hide the unnatural hint of jealousy in his eyes and placed it in front of Su Qing!
“The matter in Namphan isn’t clear yet, and I don’t know if it’ll be dangerous. It’s best if you don’t go over for the time being! However, you can lend me our master. I need Third Master’s help, preferably with Old Master Yuan Zhen!”
When Su Qing heard this, she forgot that she still wanted to criticize Mr. Huo for being jealous. She nodded in agreement..
