"No . If Ian finds out about it then we will be in even more trouble . He already has doubts about me, or he wouldn't have bought Wang and used that information to test me . Let's set this aside first . You can all leave . I have to think . "
Huo Siqian sent his subordinates out .
It had been a while since he killed someone with his own hands . However, he had consecutively killed two people . First, it was Mo Xue'er . Then it was his own subordinate . Huo Siqian realized that he did not feel good after taking someone's life .
He turned around and walked into his library . He carefully put the picture of Huo Mian that Ian left on the dinner table back into his cabinet . Then, he locked it .
He took out his phone and sent a message to Huo Mian .
"Mian, are you there?"

"?" After a while, she responded with a question mark .
"If work at South Side isn't busy, you should take a long break . There's too much going on recently . It's not safe . I'm worried about you . "
"It's none of your business . I have my husband to protect me . "
"You don't understand . I'm telling you for your own good . . . " Huo Siqian was worried and tried to persuade Huo Mian not to go to work at South Side anymore .
It would be best if she could go abroad . Yet, he couldn't tell her directly that Ian was here because Huo Mian would only get anxious .
"Mian, you know how I feel for you . Are you still afraid I'd hurt you?"
"First, I'm not Huo Mian . Second, my wife's problem isn't yours to worry about . Please mind your own business . "

When Huo Siqian read that message, he wanted to explode .
It actually turned out to be Qin Chu this whole time . . . He had Huo Mian's phone and Huo Siqian was actually messaging Qin Chu .
When Huo Siqian figured out he was talking to Qin Chu, he did not continue messaging .
Huo Mian came out of the shower, drying her hair with a towel .
She looked at Qin Chu with a smile and said, "Oh, so you're checking on me now . . . '
"Yeah . I want to see if you had been a good girl recently . I wanted to see if you have men out there . "

"What if I did? Are you going to beat me up?" Huo Mian said jokingly .
"If you did, I'll only help you get rid of them . I would never hit my wife . After all, I only have one wife . If I hit her and she ran away, where in the world would I find such a smart wife again?" Qin Chu said jokingly . Then, he put the phone on the bed .
He didn't mention how Huo Siqian messaged her . He even deleted the whole history log .
Qin Chu didn't intentionally try to hide something from Huo Mian . All he was doing was trying to keep Huo Siqian out of their lives .
"Oh, so my Chu is jealous now . Why do I feel so happy?" Huo Mian lied on her stomach on the bed . She put her face very close to Qin Chu and said gleefully .
Qin Chu took the towel and helped her wipe her wet hair .
"So . . . you like me being jealous? Then I'll get jealous every day from now on . . . " Qin Chu teased .
"No . If you get jealous every day, I won't be able to handle it . . . " Huo Mian looked down and played with her phone . She saw Zhu Lingling had just sent her a WeChat voice message .
She pressed play and put her phone to her ear so she could hear Lingling's voice .
"Mian, did you watch the news?"
"What news now?" Huo Mian knew that when Zhu Lingling said that, something big had happened .
"Mo Xue'er's dead . She was found in a basement . Her death was terrifying . . . " Zhu Lingling said .
"What? Mo Xue'er's dead? The body was found too?" Huo Mian was so shocked that she jumped out of bed .
