Chapter 109 His other identity
Qiao Qin felt a chill like ice water rushing up from her feet to her heart and spreading throughout her body. In her mind, a bold idea flashed like lightning.
Who was the person who had been sleeping in the same bed with her and calling her name tenderly these days?
Just when she was deeply confused and uneasy, a familiar ringtone suddenly broke the silence of the night.
Qiao Qin was slightly startled, then took out her phone from her pocket. On the screen, the word "husband" appeared before her eyes. As she looked at the two words, an indescribable wave of emotion surged in her heart.
The phone seemed to ring endlessly, like an endless symphony, and it would continue to play as long as Qiao Qin didn't pick up the phone.
Qiao Qin's fingertips lingered on the answer button for a moment. She hesitated for a moment, and finally pressed the answer button.
Huo Yan's voice followed, still so gentle, like the warm sunshine in spring, with endless tolerance and patience towards her.
"What are you busy with?" he asked softly.
Qiao Qin pursed her lips gently, trying to make her voice sound calm: "I was in the car just now, so I didn't hear the call in time."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, as if Huo Yan was carefully considering her answer. Then, he spoke again in a low voice.
"Why did you suddenly decide to go to Country A?" There was a barely perceptible concern in his tone.
Qiao Qin's heartbeat suddenly accelerated at that moment, as if it was about to jump out of her chest. Sweat began to appear on her palms, but she tried to suppress her inner panic and make her voice sound more natural.
"Well... receiving the invitation from Stanford School of Design was a bit sudden, but I think it's a good opportunity." She tried her best to make her words sound smooth and natural so that Huo Yan would not notice anything unusual.
She deliberately exposed her position in order to hear Huo Yan's reaction, but there was no sign of panic on the other end of the phone, and he remained calm and composed.
"Okay, I understand. Take good care of yourself. The baby and I will be waiting for you at home."
The two chatted for a few more sentences before hanging up the phone.
At this moment, the clock points to two o'clock in the afternoon local time.
Huo Yan sat at his desk, frowning, as if an insurmountable obstacle stood in front of him. His eyes revealed deep doubts, and he had obviously noticed the subtle difference in Qiao Qin's tone, but he chose to remain silent for the time being.
what on earth is it?
Doubts welled up in Huo Yan's heart. Recalling what happened yesterday, Qiao Qin suddenly decided to go to Nanshan Temple. At that moment, there seemed to be some inexplicable light flashing in her eyes.
Did all the abnormalities start from that moment?
Suddenly, Huo Yan's pupils contracted slightly, and an ominous premonition came to his mind.
He began to search around his desk, looking for the amulet that Qiao Qin had given him personally. However, no matter how carefully he searched, the amulet that had once given him peace disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, Huo Yan felt an inexplicable panic in his heart.
A hint of regret quietly emerged in the depths of his eyes.
The amulet that carried Qiao Qin's love was always carefully carried by him. However, that day, when he went to take a shower, he casually placed it on the table in the study, and Qiao Qin happened to see it.
However, now that things have come to this, he knows that regret is irreversible.
"Assistant Yan." Huo Yan's voice was low and full of unquestionable determination. "Book me a flight to Country A as soon as possible."
Assistant Yan frowned slightly and tried to remind: "Mr. Huo, but you have an important meeting this afternoon..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the person in front of him.
Huo Yan's eyes became deeper, and he said in a deep voice: "She went to Stanford University to find Huo Shiyan."
This short sentence was like a huge rock dropped into a calm lake, causing ripples.
Assistant Yan's face changed slightly and he immediately shut up. As the only person who knew about the whole thing, he instantly understood the seriousness of the matter.
after all.
Mr. Huo is here. If Miss Qiao runs to Country A without saying a word, she will definitely not be able to find him!
Assistant Yan's efficiency was amazing. He quickly arranged a private jet flight for Huo Yan. When the plane landed steadily at the airport in Country A, the night had already covered the sky like a thick black velvet cloth.
Six hours have passed since the phone call with Qiao Qin.
The cold wind was like a knife, gently scraping across the skin, bringing a hint of coolness. The fallen leaves on the ground made a rustling sound under the caress of the wind.
Huo Yan walked out of the airport, passed through the bustling crowd, and came to the gate of the familiar university.
His eyes moved through the night and soon locked onto the figure sitting under the shade of the tree.
Qiao Qin lowered her head, as if she was deep in thought. Her figure looked lonely and desolate under the dim street lights.
Huo Yan couldn't help but feel an inexplicable pain in his heart. He quickened his pace and strode towards her.
"Why are you unhappy?"
Suddenly, a familiar voice came from above. The voice was like aged wine, deep and intoxicating.
Qiao Qin was stunned for a moment. She thought it was just an illusion in her mind. However, when she slowly raised her head, that familiar face - Huo Yan, was standing quietly in front of her.
Her heartbeat suddenly started running wildly like a wild horse, and her eyes were full of disbelief.
"You...why are you here?" she blurted out, with a hint of trembling in her voice.
Shouldn't he be in the country at this point in time?
Why did it suddenly appear here?
Huo Yan's face was expressionless. He took off his coat casually and draped it elegantly over Qiao Qin's shoulders. His voice was low and gentle: "It just so happens that the company has a cooperative project in Country A, so I thought I would stop by to see you."
When Qiao Qin heard this, the tension in her heart dissipated like clouds and mist, and she secretly thanked God that it was not because of the phone call in the daytime.
Followed by.
"Would you like to go in together?"
Qiao Qin raised her head slightly and stared into Huo Yan's deep eyes, trying to catch a hint of unusual fluctuations in them.
However, Huo Yan's eyes were as calm as a lake, and he nodded calmly. Then he gently held her hand, and the two of them walked into the academy side by side.
The night spread quietly, quietly enveloping the two of them.
The moonlight poured down like the Milky Way, gently draping over their shoulders. What should have been an extremely romantic picture was now filled with an indescribable subtlety.
Qiao Qin's heart seemed to be weighed down by a huge rock, so heavy that she could hardly breathe. Her brows were furrowed, and beads of sweat quietly overflowed from her palms, as if reflecting her inner uneasiness.
Huo Yan stood beside her, looking no different from usual, but in his deep eyes, there were subtle waves hidden.
Just as the two were immersed in this subtle atmosphere, a sudden voice broke the silence.
"My classmate, have we met somewhere before?"
The voice was a bit doubtful and inquiring, instantly bringing the two people's thoughts back to reality.
