The news that Qiao Qin participated in the international design competition quickly spread throughout the company.

The group has exploded.

[Really? I remember Director Qiao didn't seem to like participating in this kind of activities.]

[I guess after Lin Yue'er came, she felt a sense of crisis. Now it's going to be a good show. It depends on who has the better professional ability. ]

[Need I say more? It must be Yue Er. How can a director who got in through connections be better than a top student who returned from studying abroad?]

......

Qiao Qin was unaware of the discussions in the group and was concentrating on preparing her design draft.

Time passed by minute by minute.

She stretched her stiff neck, and the moment she looked up, she saw the empty desk opposite her, and her heart ached.

Ever since he exposed Huo Shiyan's true identity, he has never come to the company again. He probably thinks she is no longer of any use to him.

The corners of Qiao Qin's lips curled up in a mocking arc.

fair enough.

Everything is back on track.

There was a sudden knock on the door.

Qiao Qin thought it was the assistant who came back, so she didn't even raise her head and continued to draw the design in her hand.

The necklace she wore for the competition this time was inspired by ancient vines. The winding metal lines were inlaid with gemstones of various colors, as if it was a precious gift from nature.

The first draft is almost done.

Qiao Qin waited for a long time but didn't hear any sound, so she looked up and saw Lin Yue'er standing in front of her, staring at her hands without blinking.

To be precise, it should be the design draft in hand.

Qiao Qin frowned, covered it with her body without leaving any trace, and slowly said, "What's the matter?"

Her tone was cold, but the other party didn't care at all.

"I'm here to explain the recent rumors in the company." Lin Yue'er folded her hands in front of her chest and said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

There was a flash of surprise in Qiao Qin's eyes. She didn't expect the other party to bring up this matter on his own initiative.

Followed by.

Lin Yueer said: "You will participate in the international design competition next month, right?"

Qiao Qin hummed but did not deny it.

"I don't want to compete with you." Lin Yue'er raised her chin slightly, her arrogance undisguised between her brows: "I just don't want to disappoint everyone's expectations. I won't admit defeat in the competition next month."

It turns out he was here to declare war!

Qiao Qin raised her eyebrows and nodded, "I understand."

These four understated words made Lin Yueer feel like hitting cotton.

It turns out he was here to declare war!

Qiao Qin raised her eyebrows and nodded her chin: "I understand."

These four casual words made Lin Yue'er feel as frustrated as hitting cotton, but she quickly adjusted herself and joked with a smile.

"However, your assistant really defended you. He even got into a fight with someone downstairs just because of a few jokes."

Qiao Qin frowned, her tone showing anxiety: "When did it happen?"

Lin Yueer spread her hands, looking nonchalant: "Just now, at the door of the tea room downstairs."

After the words fell, Qiao Qin didn't care about anything else and immediately stood up and walked out.

in the office.

Lin Yue'er looked at the draft design on the desk, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, but it disappeared in a flash as if it was just an illusion.

The night is getting darker.

A low-key black sedan was parked in front of the company.

"Mr. Huo, Miss Qiao is off work." Assistant Yan suddenly said.

Huo Shiyan raised his eyelids and could see outside through the car window. He saw a familiar figure walking out slowly and then got into the driver's car.

Huo Shiyan put down the work at hand and said in a light tone: "Follow him."

Two cars were driving one after the other on the road.

The atmosphere was somewhat depressing.

Assistant Yan glanced at the rearview mirror and said cautiously, "Boss Huo, our people have confirmed the news. The man in black was last seen outside Mr. Huo's villa."

Mr. Huo Sanye is Huo Shiyan's third uncle.

"Okay, I understand." Huo Shiyan had a blank expression on his face, but his fingers hanging by his side were quietly clenched, and the knuckles were slightly white.

In my memory, Uncle San always seemed to be cynical. His indulgence in eating, drinking, whoring and gambling often made the old man very angry. He never cared about the family business and seemed to only want to eat and wait for death every day.

It was this appearance of not being aggressive towards the world that successfully confused everyone.

A dark gleam flashed across Huo Shiyan's eyes. He originally thought that his third uncle was the least likely to be involved in the kidnapping case eighteen years ago, but he didn't expect that he was related to him.

"Is the news confirmed?" Huo Shiyan asked.

Assistant Yan nodded and said in a deep voice, "We have confirmed it several times."

Thinking of something, he continued, "But Mr. Huo rarely goes home and often hangs out in bars and clubs. It's easy for the brothers to lose him in those places. Is there any way to lure him out without alerting the enemy?"

Huo Shiyan's eyes flickered, as if he had thought of something, and he opened his thin lips slightly: "Can you let..."

next second.

But he suddenly paused and swallowed the words back.

There is a red light ahead.

After Assistant Yan parked the car, he turned around in confusion and asked, "Boss Huo, what did you just say?"

Huo Shiyan pursed his lips: "It's okay."

Assistant Yan didn't think much about it. He was still worrying about Mr. Huo Sanye's matter. His eyes glanced at the car diagonally above him, which happened to be where Qiao Qin was.

A flash of inspiration came to my mind.

He immediately said, "Boss Huo, we can ask Miss Qiao for help. With her identity, it's just right to ask Mr. Huo out, and she won't arouse suspicion."

Assistant Yan's tone was excited, and the more he spoke, the more feasible it seemed to him. But when he looked up, he was met with a pair of deep and cold eyes.

He immediately fell silent and shut his mouth.

The light turned green and the car started moving slowly again.

A low and hoarse voice came from behind, mixed with a hint of warning.

"Don't think about her. I'll think of a way."

Assistant Yan responded hastily, not even bothering to notice the drop of sweat sliding down his forehead. He was already complaining in his heart.

Mr. Huo, you have really changed!

In the past, he didn't even need to bring it up, because the other party would have already arranged a plan. Not to mention just asking Qiao Qin to lure Mr. Huo San out, they wouldn't even mind letting her take the risk alone.

Assistant Yan sighed silently in his heart. Mr. Huo has become more humane, but it's a pity that he has broken up with Miss Qiao.

Huo Shiyan didn't know what Assistant Yan was thinking.

The car slowly drove into the villa area and stopped. He watched Qiao Qin return home with his own eyes, and only looked away when the lights in the room on the second floor came on.

There was a hint of emotion in those deep eyes that even he himself was not aware of.

After a while.

"Let's go." Huo Shiyan said.

I had previously wasted some time searching for my sister, and now it's time to settle those old matters.

Then......

The man's eyes were slightly cold, and half of his face was hidden in the darkness, flickering on and off, so his expression could not be seen clearly.

He suddenly didn't want to continue his activities as Huo Shiyan anymore, he wanted Huo Yan to return to Yuncheng.
