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

Chapter 192 Alone with Huo Yan

Huo Group Building.

Deng Qiaoni walked into Huo Yan's office with a slightly hesitant step, feeling nervous and expectant.

The office was quiet and solemn at this moment. The sunlight shone through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows onto the smooth floor, but failed to dispel the serious atmosphere.

Huo Yan sat in front of the large desk, processing documents attentively and seriously. His brows were slightly furrowed, and his deep and sharp eyes were fixed on the paper in his hand, as if he could see through all the fog. Every decision seemed to carry a heavy weight, and every stroke of his pen might affect the future direction of the group.

Deng Qiaoni stood quietly aside, her eyes involuntarily attracted to Huo Yan.

The way he concentrated on his work was like a charming painting, which made her indulge in it unconsciously.

She stared at Huo Yan infatuatedly, her thoughts surging like a tide: "Why can't he be mine? Qiao Qin has everything, but I have nothing.

Since we are both college students of A, and I am younger, why can't I be with him? Even if my identity is not public, I am willing.

If I could be the woman by his side, even if it's just for a short time, I would have no regrets in my life.

But am I being too shameless to think this way? He is Qiao Qin's husband, and Qiao Qin has been very kind to me, so how could I have such a thought? But love is sometimes so unreasonable, and I can't control my heart. "

At this moment, the pen in Huo Yan's hand accidentally rolled to the ground, making a crisp sound in this quiet space.

Deng Qiaoni quickly bent down to pick it up, and when she handed it to him, her fingers accidentally touched Huo Yan's hand. At that moment, it seemed as if an electric current ran through her body. She retracted her hand as if she had been electrocuted, and her face instantly flushed.

Huo Yan looked up at her, a hint of subtle surprise flashed across his deep eyes, and then he said, "Thank you."

Deng Qiaoni came back to her senses instantly, and felt flustered, as if Huo Yan had seen through her inner secrets. She wanted to stay, but couldn't find a good excuse for a while.

In a panic, she could only start talking about feeding Qiao Qin porridge in the morning. Her eyes flickered, and she said in a veiled way: "Mr. Huo, this morning, while Miss Qiao was drinking porridge, she kept talking about you, saying that you are always busy with work and have no time to accompany her. Alas, I think Miss Qiao is very disappointed that you left to work. Women always hope that men can spend more time with them. Tell me, is there no man who values ​​love more than career? Miss Qiao is really a little ignorant, and it must be annoying to you."

As Deng Qiaoni spoke, she carefully observed Huo Yan's expression, secretly hoping that he would be a little dissatisfied with Qiao Qin.

However, what she never expected was that Huo Yan actually laughed, and laughed very happily.

His eyes were full of tenderness, and his voice was full of affection as he said, "Did Qin'er really say that? I knew she had me in her heart."

After saying this, Huo Yan seemed to be greatly encouraged and sped up his work. The pen in his hand danced rapidly on the documents, as if he couldn't wait to go home and see Qiao Qin.

Deng Qiaoni stood there, at a loss, her expression frozen instantly. She never expected that her carefully crafted words not only failed to achieve the desired effect, but made Huo Yan miss Qiao Qin even more. Her heart was filled with loss and frustration, as if she had been abandoned by the whole world.

At this moment, Deng Qiaoni's stomach suddenly made a rumbling sound, and the sound was particularly abrupt in this quiet office.

Her face flushed instantly, and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into. She quickly explained, "Mr. Huo, I'm sorry. I was taking care of Miss Qiao this morning and forgot to have breakfast."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yan put down his writing, raised his head and looked at Deng Qiaoni, without showing any dissatisfaction or annoyance on his face.

On the contrary, his eyes were full of understanding and concern, and he immediately said, "Don't starve yet, I'll ask my assistant to bring some food." After that, he immediately called Assistant Yan and asked him to bring breakfast.

After a while, Assistant Yan brought over an exquisite breakfast, a steaming hot sandwich, a cup of fragrant coffee, and a small plate of fresh fruit.

Huo Yan pointed to the chair next to him and said gently, "Sit down and eat."

Deng Qiaoni sat down somewhat flattered, picked up the sandwich with slightly trembling hands, and ate it in small bites.

She ate very slowly, savoring every bite. In fact, she wanted to stay in the office for a while longer to feel Huo Yan's aura. But time could not be dragged on, and she finally finished the last bite of fruit.

She slowly stood up, straightened her clothes, and said softly, "Mr. Huo, I plan to go to the kindergarten to pick up the young master from school."

Huo Yan thought about it, then put down the pen in his hand, stood up and said, "It's on the way, I just happened to go with you."

When Deng Qiaoni heard this, she was pleasantly surprised, like a flower that was about to bloom. Her face was filled with unconcealable joy, and she immediately followed.

The two walked out of the office together. The light in the corridor was soft and warm, but it could not illuminate the complicated corners in Deng Qiaoni's heart. Their footsteps echoed in the empty corridor, as if they were the accompaniment of Deng Qiaoni's tangled emotions.

Arriving in front of the Lincoln limousine parked downstairs, the driver respectfully opened the door and Deng Qiaoni walked into the car carefully. Her movements were a little reserved, as if every inch of the car was filled with mystery and majesty.

The back seat space of the Lincoln extended version is very large, and even if two people stay in the same space, there is still a distance between them.

Deng Qiaoni had no time to think about these things. She stayed in the car awkwardly, looking around constantly. She had never seen such a high-end car before. Every detail in the car exuded a luxurious atmosphere, including the soft leather seats, the exquisite interior decoration, and the faint scent of perfume in the air.

However, Deng Qiaoni had no intention of enjoying all this. She felt the leather under the seat was burning her butt. She clutched the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands, her body trembled slightly, and her heart was filled with fear.

There was a faint fragrance in the car, and Deng Qiaoni's heartbeat was particularly clear in the quiet space. Every beat seemed to tell of her inner tension and anxiety.

Time passed very slowly, and every second seemed like torture for Deng Qiaoni.

She tried to find some topics to break the silence, but every time the words came to her lips, she swallowed them back. She was afraid that she would say something wrong and ruin this rare time alone with Huo Yan.

Finally, the car slowly stopped in front of the kindergarten.
