“Huh?”
At the sudden mention of Chen Yuning, Huo Mian looked surprised .
She searched her memories quickly and understood the question .
“Chen Yuning, that shameless homewrecker . You don’t remember her?” Zhu Lingling looked puzzled . Huo Mian had an excellent memory and wouldn’t forget something happening so recently .
She was surprised to see the blank look in Huo Mian’s eyes at the mention of Huo Yuning .
“Oh, that woman . I got rid of her . ”
“Is she dead?”
“No . Don’t worry . I’m not that heartless . Anyway, she got what she deserved . ”
“Thank you for the things you’ve done for me . You’re kind-hearted and have never dealt with anyone in person, but you got rid of her for me . I know it was difficult for you . ”
Touched, Zhu Lingling caught Huo Mian’s hand to give her a hug .
But Huo Mian ducked her arms and lay back in bed .
“Lingling, I’m sorry, but I’m tired… I’ll go and talk to you when I feel better, okay?” Huo Mian asked her to leave subtly .
Zhu Lingling didn’t feel it was strange, knowing Huo Mian was still recovering from the trauma .
“Okay . Rest well . Boyuan and I will come and see you again when you feel better . ”
“Okay . ”
After Zhu Lingling left the room, Huo Mian drew out a tissue and wiped her hand in disgust .
At this moment, Qin Chu opened the door and entered the room .
He looked at Huo Mian who was wiping her hand .
“I got some dust on my hand . Our room hasn’t been dusted for a long time, right?” Huo Mian tried to explain her act of wiping her hand .
“No . It’s cleaned each day . ” Qin Chu looked at her calmly .
“Really? Then I guess the servants got lazy when their master was not home . There’s dust in the corners… I think they must do a thorough cleaning soon . I’m a clean freak . ”
“Okay . They’ll do as you say . ”
Qin Chu didn’t say more about it .
During the night, Huo Mian changed into her pajamas and lay in bed .
“Hon, come and hug me…” Huo Mian reached out her hands and asked Qin Chu to hug her .
“Mian, go ahead and sleep . I have to deal with some business first . I’ll sleep later . ”
“Can’t you spend some time with me before handling the business? Is it so important?”
“Of course not . I just want you to have some proper rest . ”
“Fine . Go then . I’ll sleep alone . ” They ended the conversation unhappily .
For some reason, Qin Chu felt unsettled .
He left the bedroom and saw Little Bean was playing with her cellphone in bed sleepily .
Pudding walked out of the room and bumped into her father .
“Daddy…”
“What’s up?”
“Mommy looks weird, probably because she just lost our baby brother . ”
“Why do you think so?”
Qin Chu squatted down and asked in a low voice as if he was afraid someone would overhear their talk .
“I’m not sure . I think her expressions and eyes were sometimes not sincere… When she saw Aunt Lingling, her behavior wasn’t as intimate as before… I think she’s still in shock from what has happened . Maybe you should spend more time with her . ”
Pudding had not only Qin Chu’s arrogance and aloofness but also Huo Mian’s sensitivity .
She had sensed something wasn’t right .
“Okay . Don’t worry . Daddy will handle it . ”
“Can we visit Handsome Su tomorrow?” Pudding asked .
“Of course . He’ll be happy to see you . ”
Qin Chu kissed his daughter’s eyelashes lovingly .
This night, Qin Chu didn’t finish his work until 2 AM in the early morning; not to disturb Huo Mian, he slept in the study .
On the next morning, An knocked on Su Yu’s door and found the room was empty .
“President Su?” terrified, An yelled .
