My husband disappeared after a flash marriage, but I am pregnant with his child

In the ward.

Father Qiao lay quietly on the white bed sheet, with various tubes inserted into his body, like a complex picture of life and machines intertwined. However, it is gratifying that he is still conscious, with a firm light flashing in his eyes, and he looks energetic.

Ms. Zhang sat on the edge of the bed, looking at Mr. Qiao with a gentle smile on her face.

She whispered softly, "The doctor said that your father is recovering quickly and may be able to stand up again in the future." Her words were full of expectations and hope for the future.

Qiao Qin stood aside, her eyes slightly red, and responded softly, her voice slightly choked, as if she was expressing the emotion and touch in her heart.

At this moment, Huo Yan walked to her side, stretched out his hand and gently held her hand. His palm was warm and powerful, as if it could pass on endless strength to her. Qiao Qin felt this warmth and strength, and the touch and gratitude in her heart were beyond words.

Ms. Zhang happened to see all the small interactions between the two of them. The heavy stone in her heart seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind and completely fell to the ground. However, even so, she still had some unspeakable concerns in her heart.

after lunch.

Ms. Zhang deliberately found an excuse to get Huo Yan out of the way, and then pulled Qiao Qin into the quiet stairwell. The door of the stairwell closed gently, isolating the noise from the outside world, leaving only the two of them in this small space.

Qiao Qin looked at Ms. Zhang's serious expression, a hint of confusion flashed in her eyes. She asked softly, "Mom, what's going on? Why are you so secretive?"

Ms. Zhang did not answer immediately, but looked at Qiao Qin deeply, as if to confirm something. Then, she slowly spoke, with a hint of imperceptible worry in her voice: "Qin'er, I have something to tell you."

Ms. Zhang looked around and made sure no one was around before asking in a low voice, "What do you think of Huo Yan?"

Qiao Qin was slightly startled, then said in a matter-of-fact tone: "He is, of course, my husband. I am deeply grateful to him. When I was most helpless and in the most difficult time, it was he who lent a hand and helped our family. If it weren't for him, we might not have survived until the moment when my father woke up. Those dark days are scary to think about."

After hearing this, Ms. Zhang nodded slightly, with approval in her eyes.

Then, she seemed to hesitate and moved her lips, but she finally mustered up the courage and asked softly, "Do you only feel gratitude for him?"

After hearing this, Qiao Qin was a little confused for a moment, with a hint of bewilderment between her brows.

At this time, Ms. Zhang's voice slowly sounded in the quiet air, with a bit of depth and seriousness.

"Mom just wants to confirm whether your feelings for him are just gratitude. Mom hopes you can marry someone you really like, instead of being with him just because you are touched for a moment. You have to know that touch is short-lived and it will slowly dissipate with the passage of time. Only true love and affection can keep your relationship going for a long time."

Although her voice was not loud, every word was filled with concern and expectations for her daughter, which could not be ignored.

......

On the way back, Qiao Qin's thoughts were like dandelions blown by the wind, fluttering and difficult to focus. In her mind, Ms. Zhang's words kept echoing, like an ancient melody, lingering in her heart.

“Only like and love can last forever.”

She tilted her head slightly and looked at the man beside her. Huo Yan's profile looked even deeper in the afterglow of the setting sun, and his bottomless eyes seemed to be able to swallow everything. Qiao Qin just looked at him, as if she wanted to see through his heart and find the answer in her heart.

Huo Yan seemed to notice Qiao Qin's gaze. He turned to look at her with a faint smile on his lips.

"What's wrong? What are you thinking about?" His voice was low and magnetic, as if it could penetrate Qiao Qin's heart.

Qiao Qin came back to her senses and shook her head gently, trying to dispel the confusion in her heart. She looked at Huo Yan, her deep eyes flashing with complex light.

"Do you like it?" she asked softly, with a hint of uncertainty in her voice.

Huo Yan was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Qiao Qin to ask this. He looked at her deeply, was silent for a while, and then slowly spoke.

"I don't know how you feel about me, but I can tell you that my feelings for you are sincere. Whether it's liking or loving, I'm willing to give everything for you."

Qiao Qin felt a warm current in her heart when she heard Huo Yan's words. She knew Huo Yan was very good to her, so good that she could hardly resist him. However, she really couldn't tell whether her feelings for him were love or just touching.

She turned her head silently and looked at the gradually darkening sky outside the window, her heart filled with confusion and struggle. She didn't know how to face this feeling, nor how to respond to Huo Yan's deep affection.

The sky gradually darkened, and wisps of fine rain fell quietly outside the window. The sound of the rain gradually sounded, as if it was the gentle whisper of nature. However, suddenly, a strong wind blew up, as if it was going to sweep the whole world into it. The rain suddenly became fierce, like a waterfall, beating against the car window mercilessly.

For safety reasons, the driver had to slowly stop the car on the side of the road and wait for the storm to pass. The car fell into silence, with only the sound of rain echoing in the ears.

Huo Yan sat quietly beside Qiao Qin, looking down at the meeting minutes on his phone screen, focused and serious. He had taken a leave of absence from the company for some reason, so he needed to hurry up and deal with the accumulated work.

"Take a nap if you're sleepy." Huo Yan suddenly spoke, his voice was low and magnetic, as if carrying an inexplicable soothing power.

Qiao Qin heard this and felt an inexplicable emotion in her heart. She thought for a long time, and finally leaned gently on the man's shoulder, closed her eyes, and let herself immerse in this rare tranquility.

The atmosphere in the car became increasingly warm and harmonious, as if even the storm could not break the tranquility. Qiao Qin leaned on Huo Yan's shoulder, feeling his warmth and solidity, and an inexplicable sense of security surged in her heart.

After a while, the rain outside the window finally stopped, no longer pattering to express its thoughts. The Maybach slowly drove to the door of the villa and stopped quietly, as if it was afraid of disturbing the tranquility after the rain.

Huo Yan rubbed his slightly tired brows and turned his head to see Qiao Qin sleeping quietly on the chair. Her sleeping face, as peaceful as water, looked particularly gentle under the dim light.

The corners of his lips unconsciously raised a warm arc, as if all the fatigue at this moment dissipated with her silence.

He opened the car door gently, afraid of disturbing her dream, and then carefully picked her up, as if she were a fragile treasure. He walked home with steady steps, and every step seemed so cautious, afraid of disturbing her sleep.

However, in this silent moment, Qiao Qin unexpectedly woke up from her sleep.

The cold moonlight falls quietly, like a long stream of water, hanging quietly on the treetops, spreading its silver light to the earth.

Qiao Qin's eyes slowly opened and met those extremely deep black eyes. They were like a black hole in the night sky, bottomless, as if there was a mysterious power that attracted her deeply.

In an instant, her heartbeat suddenly accelerated like a plucked string.

thumping!

thumping!

The surroundings were quiet, with only the sound of Qiao Qin's own heartbeat echoing. It was an unprecedented throbbing, and the emotions deep in her heart were quietly awakening.

She knew clearly that her feelings for Huo Yan had long surpassed simple gratitude.

Unconsciously, she had been deeply attracted to him, and that feeling, like a bud quietly growing in the spring rain, had taken deep root in her heart.

"Did I wake you up?" Huo Yan bowed his head slightly, his eyes were gentle as water, and his tone revealed endless doting. He seemed to be afraid that his voice would disturb something, so he deliberately lowered his voice, like a gentle hum in the night wind.

Qiao Qin shook her head gently, her hair fluttering in the wind, brushing against his cheek, bringing a hint of itch, but also like her tenderness, making his heart warm.

"It's great to have you here." She whispered softly, and her voice was like a breeze blowing across the lake, creating ripples, but so light as if afraid to disturb the tranquility of the night.

Every word fell on Huo Yan's heart like pearls, making the tenderness and pampering in his heart even deeper.

......

The days pass by quietly like flowing water, and each day is like a tranquil lake, calm and yet filled with a faint happiness.

However, today is different.

Qiao Qin was playing with Xiao Siqian at home, their laughter echoing in the warm room. Suddenly, the ringing of her cell phone broke the silence. She glanced at the screen, a hint of doubt and uneasiness flashing in her eyes.

She took a deep breath and answered the phone.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with last week's design draft?" Qiao Qin spoke first, with a bit of concern and urgency in her voice.

However, the assistant on the other end of the phone sounded extremely anxious, as if something big had happened.

"Sister Qiao, you are still asking about the design! Something terrible has happened! Just now someone came to see Mr. Huo, claiming to be his fiancée! Come over now, something is not right."

fiancée?

Qiao Qin was stunned for a moment.

Huo Yan has already married her, so where does the fiancée come from?

On the other end of the phone, the assistant's voice continued to come, as if a cold wind blew through Qiao Qin's heart.

"You know, Miss Qiao, that woman went into Mr. Huo's office, and now half an hour has passed, and she hasn't come out yet."

If Qiao Qin had only felt a hint of doubt before, like a breeze blowing across the lake, then now, the uneasiness in her heart was like ripples on the lake, expanding and becoming stronger and stronger.

She gently handed little Siqian to Aunt Song, a hint of determination flashing in her bright eyes. The premonition in her heart made her unable to sit still any longer.

On the road.

Qiao Qin sat in the back row, watching the scenery outside the window receding rapidly, feeling confused and with countless thoughts popping up in her mind.

Who is that woman?

Why did she say she was Huo Yan’s fiancée?

Moreover, Huo Yan has always disliked outsiders entering his territory, but he let the other party enter the office for such a long time without coming out.

......

Qiao Qin bit her lower lip, and had even prepared for the worst in her heart.

If there really is a third party, what should Xiao Siqian do? What should she do?

Just at the end.

Qiao Qin shook her head and put those messy thoughts behind her. Before seeing solid evidence, she should believe Huo Yan.

At this time, the driver's voice also came from the front.

"Ma'am, here we are."

Qiao Qin took a deep breath, opened the door and got out of the car. Although she had taken this route to work countless times, this was the first time she felt so nervous.
