With Huo Mian's intelligence, she would be suspicious if he had said more .
"Honey, I have a meeting in the morning . I'm heading out now . . . "
I'll drive you . " Qin Chu immediately stood up, dropping his unfinished slice of bread .
"It's okay, I can go myself . "
"No, I'll take you there . " Qin Chu wouldn't let her go to work alone no matter how hard she tried .
In the end, it was Qin Chu that insisted on driving Huo Mian to South Side .
Before she got off the car, Qin Chu held Huo Mian's hands and looked deep into her eyes . "Baby, I'll pick you up when you finish work, don't leave by yourself . "
"I don't even know when I'm getting off work yet . If a surgery arises, I may need to do overtime . "

"That's fine . . . I'll wait for you . The important thing is you have to wait for me to come and pick you up . "
"Um . . . alright then . . . " Huo Mian nodded before turning and walking towards the hospital .
Qin Chu waited until Huo Mian entered the hospital before he drove away .
Across from the hospital was a humble alley .
Ian stood there, smiling . "It looks like her husband's very protective of her . "
"Boss, should we grab her?" a minion behind him asked .
"No, kidnapping is getting boring . I have a better game . . . " Ian smirked .

"Deputy director, these are the materials for the morning meeting . . . you can go over them first . . . "
Huo Mian looked up at Chen Jie and smiled . "Why are you back so soon? Didn't I give you a long vacation?"
Due to Chen Jie and Ni Yang's status as newlyweds, Huo Mian made sure to give her an extrlong holiday .
Although Huo Mian didn't expect her to return so quickly, she appreciated the familiar presence .
"I can't rest for too long . . . It's too boring . . . " Chen Jie smiled .
"That brat Ni Yang's okay with you coming back to work?"
"Of course . . . He's busy writing new songs every day too . We both should get back to our lives . . . It's probably not good to spend too much time together . . . " Chen Jie's face ruddied .
"Alright, put down the files, I'll take a look later . "

"Okay, don't forget to drink lemon water . Apparently, it has whitening properties . . . " Chen Jie reminded .
Huo Mian nodded with a smile . . .
After Chen Jie left, Huo Mian entered deep thought; one question was on her mind . . .
Recently, everyone seemed to want her to take a vacation . . .
Huo Siqian asked her about it . . . and so did Qin Chu . . .
How bizarre . . . was something big about to happen?
Did they not want her to know something? Huo Mian was suspicious but she didn't know who to ask . . .
She turned on the office T . V . ; Mo Xue'er's memorial was being broadcasted . . .
Donning a black suit, Huo Siqian had in his hands Mo Xue'er's portrait, walking at the very front of the procession, followed by a myriad of fans .
Even the long-disappeared Jiang Ye was among the crowd .
Su Yu didn't attend the event but he sent sympathy flowers . They were all part of the entertainment circle, after all . In addition, there were many celebrity attendees from Star Imperial . After all, this event was also a great way to gain more exposure .
Huo Mian watched the live broadcast for a while and after she realized that there weren't any valuable clues, she grabbed the documents and headed towards the meeting room .
-The city's largest Funeral Parlor -
Gao Ran brought the police force to keep the area safe and orderly . They were there for preventative measures . After all, it was a crowded event filled with many different voices .
Inside the police car, Gao Ran opened up his coke can, anxious as could be .
"Director Gao, it's been such a long time . We've sent out the warrant . . . Why can't we find the suspects? There are very few foreigners to begin with . . . They should be very apparent . . . Unless . . . they've already left town? They've run away?" An officer brought up his concerns .
