Chapter 58 His eyes suddenly darkened, and he looked up at her.
At this moment, Jiang Qin was incredibly grateful that when she celebrated Su Lejia's birthday last Saturday, Su Lejia suggested that she leave the pregnancy knowledge handbook in her bag with her, in case Huo Sili found it someday, and she did as she was told.
Otherwise, Jiang Qin would feel that she was not far from hell right now.
Because at this moment, the bottle containing folic acid tablets that Huo Sili was holding was in her bag!
The reason why this thing wasn't hidden elsewhere in the house was quite simple: Huo Sili was a very observant person, and Yunhai Huafu was ultimately his territory. He knew everything about this place far better than she did.
Therefore, hiding this thing in the room is far less safe than simply putting it in her usual bag.
Jiang Qin really didn't expect that Huo Sili would actually touch her bag one day!
However, it's better for him to find it in my bag than to secretly hide it somewhere in my room and let him find it, which would only make things more obvious.
Jiang Qin tried hard to suppress the panic of fear of being exposed, letting her anger surge up.
She walked towards him, and in a flash, she thought of all the things that had ever angered her in her life, her eyes flashing with rage. "You went through my bag?!"
Huo Sili raised an eyebrow slightly. Jiang Qin didn't dare to think about what he had discovered at this moment. She braced herself and said again, trying to preemptively strike: "Huo Sili, can't you respect me? That's my bag! Not yours!"
But then, Jiang Qin suddenly remembered something else: the art exhibition ticket Xie You'an had given her before. She had put it in her drawer and completely forgotten to take it out!
The ticket was from last Saturday. She had remembered it, but so much had happened last week.
She found out she was pregnant on Tuesday, encountered a stabbing incident while having dinner with Xie You'an on Wednesday, attempted suicide by cutting her wrists on Thursday, and later moved out of Yunhai Huafu. She was focused on taking good care of her pregnancy. On Saturday, her best friend's birthday was celebrated early, but she was only thinking about celebrating Su Lejia's birthday.
That art exhibition was something I had always wanted, but I hadn't even thought about it back then.
Thinking of all this, and looking at the bottle in Huo Sili's hand, Jiang Qin felt a surge of sadness in her heart.
When a husband learns that his wife is pregnant, unless he is under serious financial pressure, he is usually overjoyed to welcome the new life.
But she had to hide her child from her husband, living in constant fear.
But if he doesn't like her, why did he have sex with her?
She was fed up with this kind of life. In that instant, only four words came to Jiang Qin's mind: I want a divorce!
Perhaps it was the surge of emotion that gave her a sudden burst of courage.
She bluntly told him, "I think we should live separately!"
As she spoke, she quickly came in, took the phone she had left in the master bedroom's entryway, and then turned and left.
Behind him, Huo Sili narrowed his dark eyes, his expression turning noticeably cold.
"Jiang Qin?" he called her.
Jiang Qin heard this, but her steps did not stop at all.
There is a famous saying: "One should strike while the iron is hot, but the momentum will wane on the second attempt and be exhausted on the third."
It is important for a person to know their own limitations. Jiang Qin is well aware that she is just an ordinary person when it comes to acting, and she can't compare with those formally trained actors. Her anger at this moment is entirely due to her temper.
Therefore, if this anger dissipates, she definitely won't be able to act in this state in a short period of time.
If this anger disappears, the fear that is currently the underlying emotion in her heart will inevitably clamor, and she will become more easily exposed.
She had accompanied Horstley to many business negotiations and knew that this man's alertness was immeasurable.
Therefore, Jiang Qin does not believe that she will definitely win if she confronts Huo Sili head-on.
But when it comes to children, if it's not certain, then it's zero, since no one counts people, they'd say there are 0.5.
She wants a 100% probability; if that's not possible, she has to avoid the possibility of losing.
The elevator descended rapidly and stopped on the second floor. Jiang Qin pushed open the guest room door and quickly went inside.
Bang-!
Huo Sili rushed down the stairs and stepped forward, but he was still half a second too late, and his high nose bridge almost got a nose full of dust.
Horstley: "..."
Looking at the tightly closed door in front of me, I recalled the words she had shouted with red eyes just now.
Huo Sili pursed his thin lips.
In the maid's room on the first floor, Wang Ma was leaving the door open to let in some fresh air when she heard a loud, clearly angry slamming of the door from upstairs.
Wang Ma was startled.
Because Huo Sili had a history of sleeping in the guest room, Wang Ma naturally assumed that Huo Sili and Jiang Qin had quarreled, which made him angry and come to the guest room.
After thinking it over and hesitating for a while, I finally mustered up the courage to go upstairs.
Unexpectedly, as he came out of the stairs, he saw a gloomy-faced Horstley in front of the guest room door.
In addition, it was noticed that Horstley seemed to be holding a small bottle in his hand.
The hallway has motion-activated lights, which are still on, but Wang Ma doesn't dare to look at them for long.
Instead, he looked at the closed door and was somewhat surprised that he had guessed wrong; the person who entered the room was actually his wife!
Realizing that it was Jiang Qin who was angry, Wang Ma immediately became worried and felt a little resentful.
Sir, how old are you? You still managed to make your wife so angry that she has to sleep in the guest room! They say the older you get, the more caring you become.
Why is it being done the other way around?
Wang Ma naturally dared not say this aloud; she cautiously inquired with Huo Sili, attempting to mediate.
However, as soon as he opened his mouth to call him "sir," he was met with a cold gaze from Horst.
The look in his eyes made Wang Ma tremble. She immediately lost the courage to care and gave a dry laugh before quickly leaving.
After entering the house, Jiang Qin locked the door. After a while, she didn't hear any loud noises outside.
Relieved, Jiang Qin put down her phone and was about to go into the bathroom when she remembered that there were disposable bathrobes and other disposable items in the guest room. But as soon as she stepped into the bathroom, she heard a distinct sound of the guest room door opening.
Jiang Qin's eyes widened. Hadn't she locked it from the inside?
A tall, handsome man walked over, bathed in the lamplight, his shadow looming over her, his voice low and magnetic.
"I forgot to tell you, Qinqin, the lock on the guest room door has been broken for a long time and hasn't been fixed."
Jiang Qin pursed her lips and subconsciously stepped back, but just then, her phone, which she had placed in the entryway, vibrated and rang.
Huo Sili stretched out his long arm, picked it up, glanced at the note, his eyes suddenly darkened, and he looked up at her.
