Qiao Qin couldn't help but take a few more glances. She always felt that Huo Shiyan was a little different from a few days ago, but she couldn't tell where.

"I'm fine. Thank you for arranging a bodyguard. It's a great help."

Gratitude flashed in her eyes, and she smiled and said, "In return, I'll treat you to a meal."

"But I don't want to eat." A low-pitched, pleasant male voice came from above my head, which was simply a foul.

Qiao Qin asked subconsciously: "Then what do you want to eat?"

Huo Shiyan suddenly approached, supporting the desk with one hand, and pressed down with his tall and slender body.

A faint scent of cedar wafts into my nose.

Then, the unique smell of men's hormones hit me in the face.

Qiao Qin's pupils trembled slightly, and she leaned back subconsciously, her whole body pressed tightly against the back of the chair.

There is no escape.

"Huo Shiyan!" she shouted quickly.

"Ok?"

Huo Shiyan's eyes dimmed and his voice was a little hoarse, but he did not stop.

Unknowingly, the distance between the two people was getting closer and closer.

Qiao Qin was completely panicked. She put her hands on his chest and raised the volume.

"Huo Shiyan! Do you know what you are doing?"

"of course."

After getting a positive reply, Qiao Qin raised her head and met his bottomless black eyes, as if there was a surge of desire.

She said in a daze: "Are you crazy? I'm already married."

"I don't mind." Huo Shiyan's lips curled slightly.

"What about the child? Don't you mind?" Qiao Qin blurted out and then closed her eyes.

I originally thought that he would give up and pretend that nothing had happened.

Who knows.

"It seems like it would be nice to become a father early."

The moment she opened her eyes, she saw the seriousness on Huo Shiyan's face.

Qiao Qin was stunned.

This was an answer she had never thought of.

"But I..."

Before she could finish her words, the man's slender fingers covered her lips.

Qiao Qin fell silent subconsciously.

next second.

A flood of kisses swept over him, a little more tender than the previous two times.

Qiao Qin wanted to open her eyes, but they were covered by the man's big, broad hand.

"Pay attention."

As if dissatisfied with her distraction, Huo Shiyan bit her lips lightly as a punishment.

Qiao Qin's breathing became a little disordered, and she was soon disturbed by the bombardment of kisses.

My mind went blank.

After a while.

Qiao Qin panted and collapsed weakly in the man's arms, staring at that flawless profile.

His eyes traced his facial features inch by inch.

He has deep and superior eyebrows, a high nose bridge, thin lips half-pursed, and an angular jawline.

"thump!"

"thump!"

My heart was in turmoil again.

Qiao Qin's eyes were complicated and her voice was a little tired: "Let me think about it alone, okay?"

Huo Shiyan hummed and helped her tuck her messy hair behind her ears. "Call me if you have anything."

Qiao Qin exhaled softly: "Okay."

As night falls, the cold moon hangs on the branches.

Qiao Qin sat in the living room, holding the freshly plucked petals in her hands, murmuring, "Like, dislike, like, dislike..."

Does Huo Shiyan really not mind?

Don't mind her widowhood? Don't mind her being pregnant with someone else's child?

Qiao Qin's heart was in turmoil when she was suddenly patted on the shoulder.

Lin Xingran smiled and said, "It's so late, you asked me to come here just to watch you destroy the flowers?"

Qiao Qin then stopped what she was doing and turned sideways, "There is something I want to hear your opinion on."

Seeing her serious expression, Lin Xingran put away her smile and said, "I'm all ears."

"I have a friend..." Qiao Qin was interrupted just as she began to speak.

Lin Xingran had a strange expression: "Do I know this friend of yours?"

Qiao Qin was silent for a few seconds: "I know him."

"I understand." Lin Xingran made a gesture and closed her mouth.

Qiao Qin thought for a moment and continued, "Her husband just passed away, and she has been actively pursued by a boy recently, and he is the man she secretly loved before."

Lin Xingran's eyes lit up and she couldn't help but interject.

"Isn't this great? Who can resist Bai Yueguang's pursuit?"

Qiao Qin lowered her head, her tone somewhat depressed: "But, she is no longer worthy of her white moonlight."

Lin Xingran became anxious instantly, put his hands on her shoulders and shook her vigorously, "Who said you are not worthy? So what if you have been married before? There are so many people who have remarried, they died long ago!"

Qiao Qin thought about it and finally expressed the concerns buried deep in her heart.

"She's already married and pregnant with her late husband's child. What if the other party is only briefly interested and regrets it in the future?"

"He dares!" Lin Xingran was murderous and slammed the table hard, making a loud noise.

next second.

Lin Xingran retracted her hand that was numb from the shock and smiled awkwardly: "I mean, does your friend still have feelings for her deceased husband?"

Qiao Qin shook her head: "No."

"That's all." Lin Xingran looked at her encouragingly and spoke earnestly.

"Since you both have feelings for each other, why not give it a try? As the saying goes, it doesn't matter how long it lasts, it only matters that you once had it!"

Qiao Qin's eyes moved slightly and she lowered her head, not knowing what she was thinking.

Soon, Lin Xingran's voice continued to be heard.

"Anyway, no matter what decision you make, I will stand by your side, sister."

Qiao Qin's heart warmed up, and she reached out and hugged her, "Thank you."

……

Ever since the conversation with Lin Xingran, Qiao Qin's heart knot has been untied little by little.

However, before she had time to talk to Huo Shiyan about it, she had to throw herself into her busy work.

In the blink of an eye.

The day of the jewelry exhibition has finally arrived.

Celebrities and big names were invited to the scene, and luxurious and expensive cars were parked at the door.

Qiao Qin stood in front of the mirror, sweat constantly coming out of her palms. She took a deep breath and tried to calm the tension in her heart.

Today is also the most important day since her rebirth.

Success or failure depends on this.

Qiao Qin's eyes gradually became firm, and she walked step by step to the center of the exhibition hall.

She was wearing a light-colored cheongsam that outlined her perfect figure. The slit hem of her skirt revealed her pair of white and slender legs as she moved.

however.

The most shocking thing was the set of imperial green jewelry she was wearing.

The crystal clear jade beads emit a faint halo.

It's so beautiful that you can't take your eyes off it.

Besides.

There are also magnificent diamond jewelry at the jewelry exhibition, which are dazzling and eye-catching, and there is a unique charm behind each design.

There were exclamations one after another all around.

Seeing everyone's astonished reactions, Qiao Qin curled the corners of her lips.

Become!

As soon as this thought flashed through her mind, before she could breathe a sigh of relief, the door of the exhibition hall was opened again.

"Clap clap clap!"

The sudden applause instantly attracted everyone's attention.

Qiao Qin tilted her head and saw a familiar face.

I saw——

Huo Ziyang was pushed in in a wheelchair.

He stared at her intently, his scarlet eyes slightly narrowed, filled with deep hatred.

Compared to his previous high-spirited look, now there was only a cold and hostile look between his brows.

Qiao Qin frowned, and didn't have time to speak.

"Why didn't my sister-in-law call me on such an important day?" Huo Ziyang said sinisterly.
