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

"Sister Qiao?"

"Sister Qiao, are you listening?"

The assistant called out several times before the person in front of him responded.

"You go out first. I feel a little uncomfortable." Qiao Qin rubbed his tired brows, feeling inexplicably uneasy.

She had been waiting for news from Huo Shiyan all morning, but there was no response in the chat box, so she couldn't concentrate on her work at all.

In the blink of an eye.

It was noon.

Normally at this time she would receive takeout or snacks bought by Huo Shiyan, but today it was quiet and nothing happened.

Qiao Qin frowned. She had just called Assistant Yan, but the other party was hesitant and only said that Mr. Huo was fine and then hung up immediately.

What happened?

Qiao Qin felt an inexplicable sense of irritation in her heart.

Suddenly.

The sound of the doorknob turning rang in my ears.

Qiao Qin's eyes lit up slightly and she raised her head expectantly.

Is he here?

however.

What caught my eye was a smiling face.

"What's wrong? Director Qiao doesn't want to see me?" Lu Guangxi joked.

Qiao Qin was not in a good mood and shook her head. "Stop joking. What do you want from me?"

Lu Guangxi's smile became even brighter, and he handed her the document in his hand. "I just said, congratulations on becoming the new director of Huo's Jewelry Design Department through your own efforts."

As he said this, he couldn't help but sigh.

"You've only been here for a few months and you're already on equal footing with me. If you keep going like this, it won't be long before you become my leader."

Qiao Qin was stunned for a moment, looking at the new employment letter, temporarily forgetting the depression in her heart.

She was a little incredulous: "Is this true?"

Lu Guangxi rolled his eyes. "How could it be fake? The jewelry you designed recently sold for the highest price at the auction. The boss is planning to hold a grand celebration party. You can invite any friends and relatives you have."

Qiao Qin finally believed it, and said excitedly, "Okay, I understand."

Lu Guangxi originally wanted to chat for a while, but a group of people below came to him to handle work, so he had to leave first.

In the office, calm returned.

Qiao Qin looked at the lit screen of her mobile phone, which was still on the chat with Huo Shiyan.

【Qinqin】: Good morning.

[Qinqin]: You haven’t arrived at the company yet?

[Qinqin]: What happened?

......

Qiao Qin thought about it, typed a line of words in the input box, deleted and reduced them, and finally only one sentence was left.

[Qinqin]: I got promoted and we are holding a celebration party at the hotel next door at 6pm. Will you come?

Time passed by minute by minute.

Until the celebration banquet began, Qiao Qin did not wait for Huo Shiyan's reply.

She frowned slightly, looking like she was worried, and was soon noticed by the people around her.

Lu Guangxi couldn't help but ask: "Who made our sister Qiao unhappy?"

After spending some time together, the assistant could roughly guess what she was thinking, so he lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Huo hasn't come to the company today. I don't know if something happened."

"Are you talking about Huo Shiyan?" Lu Guangxi's expression was a little strange. He was very popular in the company, so he knew a lot of secret gossip.

Qiao Qin turned her head suddenly to look, feeling somewhat expectant but also a little nervous.

Followed by.

Lu Guangxi said: "It seems that he went to the airport to pick up a very important person."

Qiao Qin hurriedly asked: "Who?"

Lu Guangxi scratched his head and said, "It seems to be a woman named Bai Mengyi."

Bai Mengyi!

Qiao Qin's eyes widened, and she stood there in a daze as if she had been struck by lightning.

Is it her?

How could it be her?

Fragments from deep within her memory were turned up again. Her hands hanging at her sides tightened unconsciously, and her lower lip turned white from being bitten.

Huo Shiyan and Bai Mengyi were once the golden boy and girl of their school, a handsome man and a beautiful woman, and they were also very close, so naturally, rumors spread.

And she at that time.

Inferiority.

timid.

Just like the grass that cannot stand the light, it always hides in the dark, hiding the passionate love that only itself knows.

Because at that time, Bai Mengyi was already by his side.

Qiao Qin never thought that she would be entangled with the male god she once secretly loved, and at this critical moment, his ex-girlfriend actually returned to China.

Who will Huo Shiyan choose?

Once this thought comes into my mind, I can never get rid of it.

Qiao Qin suddenly remembered the chat interface where the other party had not replied a single word, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness in her heart.

and so.

Huo Shiyan has made a decision.

She was dumped again, wasn't she?

This would explain why the other party was acting so abnormally today.

"Sorry, I need to go to the restroom." Qiao Qin covered her mouth and looked at the table full of delicious dishes, but she had no appetite at all.

A few minutes later.

"vomit--"

Looking at her pale face in the mirror, Qiao Qin raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a mocking arc.

She had never been able to compete with Bai Mengyi before.

Now she is unlucky and pregnant, how can she have any chance of winning?

Qiao Qin turned on the faucet, and the cold water flowed over her hands, but it was far less cold than the coldness in her heart.

Then what about Huo Shiyan's kindness to her in the past few days?

pity?

Pity or guilt?

Qiao Qin would rather have never experienced Huo Shiyan's tenderness, at least she wouldn't feel as uncomfortable as she does now.

My heart felt like it was being cut into pieces with a knife, and even breathing felt uncomfortable.

at the same time.

Huo Shiyan had no idea of ​​Qiao Qin's pain.

He stood in the airport, raised his wrist to look at his watch, his brows slightly furrowed with displeasure.

"Didn't you say you were going to take the flight at 10 o'clock? What time is it now?"

Bai Mengyi walked to the man familiarly and tried to take his arm, but the man ruthlessly dodged her and her hands froze in mid-air.

She didn't feel embarrassed and shrugged, "It's late, what can I do."

Huo Shiyan didn't say anything. He glanced at her coldly and said, "Let's talk about it in the car."

The atmosphere in the car was very depressing.

Bai Mengyi's eyes flickered slightly, and she picked up a long hair from the seat with sharp eyes, and asked with a smile: "Brother Huo has a girlfriend?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Huo Shiyan remained calm. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up and down at the person in front of him with sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through her.

He has a very important question to ask Bai Mengyi.

After two days of getting along, Huo Shiyan was basically certain that Qiao Qin had no contact with the family traitor. Before he could figure out how to treat her in the future, he suddenly received a text message.

[Bai Mengyi]: Brother Huo, I heard that you were investigating something. I have some information that may be useful to you.

Of course Huo Shiyan would not get along easily.

But after asking two questions, I realized that Bai Mengyi might really know something by accident.

It is precisely because of this that he has the patience to wait at the airport for so long.

"Go ahead." Huo Shiyan's voice was cold, without a trace of emotion.

Bai Mengyi's eyes dimmed slightly, but soon returned to normal, and she smiled and said, "Don't worry, we haven't seen each other for so long, let's chat and have a meal first."

A moment of silence.

"Okay." Huo Shiyan opened his thin lips and uttered only one word.

Soon, he added.

"You should know the consequences of lying to me."

His voice was cold and threatening.

The moment Bai Mengyi raised her head, she met a pair of dark and deep eyes.

She seemed to be targeted by a terrifying monster and could be swallowed by its bloody mouth at any time, ending up in a miserable state.

Bai Mengyi couldn't help but shudder and didn't dare to continue joking.

"I, I didn't lie."

"You better be."

There was dead silence in the car.

Until they reach their destination.

Looking at the familiar juice shop, Bai Mengyi became bolder again.

Her fair little face was filled with a warm smile, revealing shallow dimples on her cheeks, making her look very friendly.

"Aunt Zhang, I'm back."

"you are?"

Aunt Zhang hesitated for two seconds and found that she didn't remember this girl. However, the man next to her looked familiar, as if she had just seen him two days ago.

Bai Mengyi was not angry, and even found an excuse for her, "It's been a few years since graduation, it's normal that you don't remember me."

Aunt Zhang felt a little embarrassed and said quickly, "I'm old and my memory is not good. What would you like to drink?"

Bai Mengyi's body tilted slightly, almost leaning on Huo Shiyan's arm, and her voice was sweet.

"Brother Shi Yan, what would you like to drink? It's my treat today."

Qiao Qin heard these words as soon as she reached the door.

Her body was frozen in place. There was only a threshold of a few centimeters in front of her, but her legs felt like they were filled with lead and she couldn't lift them up to step over it.

Qiao Qin had been in a bad mood since the celebration banquet. She tossed and turned in bed and couldn't sleep, so she wanted to take a walk around the school.

I didn’t expect to meet Huo Shiyan and...Bai Mengyi.

The backs of the two standing together are very harmonious, just like a couple in the honeymoon period, who just want to stick to each other every day.

Qiao Qin was about to break.

why?

God was so cruel to her and let her see this scene, which was undoubtedly like rubbing salt into her bleeding wounds.

"Brother Shi Yan, I like you... What brand is that aromatherapy smell in the car?"

like.

These two words suddenly stimulated Qiao Qin.

She remembered that Huo Shiyan had never said a word of liking her during these days.

so.

It's all her wishful thinking.

Qiao Qin's frail body shook, tears welled up in her eyes, and in the blink of an eye her face was covered in tears.

She couldn't accept this conjecture at all.

But this is the reality.

Ah.

No wonder Huo Shiyan stopped replying to Bai Mengyi's messages as soon as she returned to China. He was just a source of entertainment for her to pass the time in her spare time.

"How do you stand..."

When Aunt Zhang saw Qiao Qin, her eyes lit up slightly. She opened her mouth to call her, but found that the familiar figure had disappeared.

Huh?

Did you see it wrong?

Aunt Zhang rubbed her eyes and thought, am I really old and time to retire?

At this time, Bai Mengyi asked caringly: "What's wrong?"

Aunt Zhang shook her head: "I seemed to see an acquaintance just now. She is from the same school as you two."

Bai Mengyi's eyes flickered slightly, and she seemed to be interested: "Who is it? Tell me."
