ame time, Lí Qìn rushed forward and asked tearfully, "Doctor, how is my boyfriend""The person is okay, but the anesthesia is still wearing off. They won't be awake for a while."The head surgeon took o...Ji Qing helped Ji Lin walk in. After that bump just now, Ji Lin would probably need to rest for a while.

His brows furrowed even deeper, what on earth is going on!

Ho Mingzheng's phone on the passenger seat rang.

In the dim light, the cold glow of the phone screen flickered, but Huo Mingzheng seemed not to hear, not even giving an extra glance.

Qin Heng glanced at the caller ID.

Li Qin.

"Azheng, today is Xiaochin's birthday," Qin Heng reminded him.

Huo Mingzheng lowered the car window halfway, and the smoke drifted out. He hummed softly, but still didn't answer the phone.

......

After calling Huo Mingzheng three times in a row, no one answered. Li Qin sat on the sofa, her hands tightly clutching her phone. She took a deep breath and looked impassively at the clock hanging on the wall.

It's half past eleven at night.

Qin Heng said he had something to do, but it's so late now, he should be finished by now, right

The nanny was tidying the living room and looked up to ask, "Miss Li, these are several cakes..."

"Just toss it," she said, glancing at it with indifference before turning away and heading upstairs.

The cake was bought by friends, she only cared about Huo Mingzheng, the others were irrelevant to her.

For this birthday, she prepared for a long time. Fruits, drinks, and even the dinner dishes were all prepared by her. There were several dishes that Ho Mingzheng liked to eat.

He didn't eat a single bite.

What are you doing, busy until this late

She furrowed her brows and pushed open the master bedroom door, only to be caught in a full embrace!

"Xiaoxin, why are you just coming up now!" Qice's jaw rubbed against her shoulder.

The faint scent on her body was what he adored most.

A flicker of annoyance crossed Li Qin's eyes, but she didn't show it on her face. She just couldn't smile no matter how hard she tried.

Qi Ce lowered his head and gazed at her face, softly asking, "Why are you not happy"

"No." Li Qin pushed him away, walking as she removed her pearl earrings.

Qi Ce followed closely behind her, a cold glint in his eyes. In a calm voice, he asked, "Is it because Aze isn't here"

Li Qin's footsteps stopped.

She said nonchalantly, "You're overthinking it. I was just wondering what could possibly be so important at the Huo family that he'd be so busy he couldn't even spare a moment."

Qi Ce walked over and helped her take off the pearl necklace. His fingertips gently brushed against her fair, delicate skin.

Li Qin's skin was the best he had ever seen on a woman, so delicate and smooth it could be broken by a puff of air, like that of a baby.

Later he knew that person was specially raised by him to satisfy his own animal desires.

He restrained the killing intent in his eyes, pressing Li Qin against the dressing table and personally helping her undo the elaborate hairstyle on her head. His gaze fell on her black hair, which was abundant but lacked its previous sheen. She had been ill recently, and...

"Do you know what he's busy with"

Li Qin suddenly grasped his hand, her eyes gentle, as if looking at her beloved.

Qi Ce smiled and took her hand, gently kneading it, casually saying: "It seems that Fu Yan has left. Aze is looking for her, and the whole south city is going to be turned upside down."

The makeup mirror suddenly lit up, reflecting Li Qin's face which froze for a moment. about me, you're not well, don't stay here too long."Huo Yuan then involuntarily tightened his grip on her hand, his tone still calm and gentle, "Don't lie to Big Brother.""I'm fine, big brother. You...
