Chapter 189 Jiang Qin's pink lips suddenly pursed
Jiang Qin had no idea that the car would suddenly experience a flat tire halfway through the journey.
Fortunately, there weren't many cars on the road at the time, so the situation wasn't too bad.
However, precisely because this section of the road is located in the suburbs, far from any villages or shops, it is difficult to hail a taxi. Therefore, we had to wait for the bodyguards from Yueming Bay to come and pick us up in another car, which would definitely delay our trip.
However, after glancing at the time, Jiang Qin wasn't in such a hurry.
She went to bed relatively early last night, and the weather was nice today, so she felt good after waking up early.
Therefore, we set off earlier than usual today.
She had been thinking that, apart from telling the old lady about faking her death, she wouldn't be able to stay by the old lady's side for a long time afterward, so she wanted to go there early today to spend more time with the old lady.
But given the current situation, it's clear that the plan to go to the Huo family's old residence long ago is impossible to complete.
Jiang Qin got out of the back seat to wait for the car. At the same time, the bodyguards, who had been trained by the old lady at great expense, efficiently handled the matter.
Some people placed a warning triangle 100 meters behind the car, some contacted a tow truck, some contacted the 4S store to inquire if they had matching tires, and some contacted people in Yueming Bay to ask them to drive over and told them to drive fast.
Finally, the leader came and respectfully reported the situation to her.
My feelings were a bit complicated just now, but seeing how efficiently everyone is doing things, it's really hard for me to get angry.
After listening to this, Jiang Qin had already calmed down and even gave herself positive psychological suggestions.
Yes, isn't this God trying to teach her some lessons?
For example, out with the old, in with the new.
For example, it's never too late to mend the fence after the sheep are lost.
The leaky, damaged tire and the car itself were just like Horsley and her.
Even if his old energy makes her feel annoyed and irritable during the time he is away from her, just like a car tire going flat makes the car drive unevenly.
However, as long as you actively face and solve the problem after discovering it.
Then all those negative influences on her will quickly disappear.
The car will have new tires, and she will also usher in a new life.
Furthermore, isn't it a very good and lucky thing that a bad tire was discovered and replaced in time without causing a greater safety accident for the people in the car?
Jiang Qin responded to the bodyguard with a "okay," adjusted her mindset, and prepared to stand by the roadside to wait for the car coming from Yueming Bay.
But just then, a familiar car suddenly appeared in the eyes of the bodyguards standing by the roadside.
There were green plants along the way, and the sun was shining brightly. Jiang Qin happened to turn her back to look at the green plants by the roadside, so she didn't notice any cars coming from the road.
I heard a bodyguard whisper something nearby, and I assumed the car had arrived.
Turning her head, she unexpectedly came face to face with a black Cullinan with a license plate containing her birthdate.
Jiang Qin's pupils contracted slightly, and she instinctively turned away, not wanting to look anymore.
Almost simultaneously, the rear door of the Cullinan was pushed open, and a familiar, tall figure quickly stepped out.
His gaze was intense, and the moment he saw her, Jiang Qin clearly noticed that Huo Sili quickened his pace.
Jiang Qin's long eyelashes fluttered slightly. After not seeing each other for several days, seeing that handsome face that was indeed to her aesthetic standards, she was still momentarily stunned.
But soon, Jiang Qin frowned, quickly turned her head away, and faced away from that side.
Huo Sili's physique was eye-catching enough, not to mention his handsome face that made people want to talk to the goddess Nuwa about why she was so biased. At this moment, he was walking towards the sunlight on a secluded road.
There was no one around, so everyone who was still looking over there quickly recognized that the person was indeed Huo Sili, and in an instant, everyone's expression changed.
The bodyguards quickly lined up and surrounded Jiang Qin in a protective stance.
Seeing this, Horstley did not falter in the slightest and continued to stride forward.
"Qinqin, get in the car."
A few seconds later, Jiang Qin heard that voice that she knew all too well.
Although it feels familiar at this moment, I can also feel a sense of unfamiliarity.
Perhaps it was because she had been secretly married to him for four years, yet she understood him less and less.
Jiang Qin, with her back turned, continued to look at the wildflowers and weeds by the roadside, ignoring them.
Huo Sili stared at the figure in front of him, his eyes dim, but his steps stubbornly continued forward.
"Second Young Master, please don't come any closer."
Seeing that Horst was about to continue walking forward, the lead bodyguard clenched his fists in a fighting stance and spoke up to stop him.
Upon hearing this, the others also stared warily at the man in front of them.
With her back to everyone, Jiang Qin pursed her lips and frowned slightly.
That familiar blend of mint and woody scents wafted in on the breeze from the suburban mountains.
It was noticeably richer than before, and she knew that he had moved much closer.
This place is remote, and if a fight breaks out and someone gets injured, it won't be easy to treat.
Even if an ambulance arrives, it will take time.
Recalling the last time at the villa in the southern suburbs, when the old lady's bodyguards went up, it seemed that a dispute had broken out with Huo Sili. She wasn't sure whether they dared not attack Huo Sili or were truly being suppressed unilaterally.
But I clearly remember that all the bodyguards on the old lady's side who went up to call for Huo Sili were injured, and some of them looked quite serious, as if they had suffered internal injuries.
"Second Young Master!"
Suddenly, the bodyguard's voice rang out again from behind, this time noticeably louder.
Jiang Qin, who had her back to everyone, felt a tightness in her heart as she listened.
Then the bodyguard said again, "If you come any closer, we're really going to have to fight you."
Jiang Qin curled her fingers and clenched her fist, about to turn around.
A car honked its horn at them.
Jiang Qin looked up and saw a car coming from Yueming Bay.
"Second Young Madam, the car has arrived. Please get in." The bodyguard said, rolling down the window as the car came to a stop.
Without hesitation, Jiang Qin walked past several bodyguards, went to the car parked by the roadside, opened the door, and got in.
Huo Sili's eyes darkened even more as his gaze fell on Jiang Qin.
The car honked its horn again, and apart from the two bodyguards waiting for the tow truck and contacting the 4S store, the rest of the bodyguards watched as Huo Sili retreated.
With a bang, the car door slammed shut, and Jiang Qin and several bodyguards successfully changed cars and left in front of Huo Sili.
He Xu, who witnessed the entire process from the driver's seat in the back, was speechless.
Soon after, Horst returned to the back seat. "Back to the old house."
He Xu responded with a "yes," then fell even more silent. Just last night, he had specifically asked about it, and President Huo hadn't said that at the time.
He clearly said that his wife was going home today, and that she definitely didn't want to see him.
So he won't go back to the old house this morning. He'll go back to keep his wife company later when she leaves.
So, this is what happened?
……
"Second Young Madam, you've arrived."
The car stopped in front of the old house. As soon as Jiang Qin got out of the car, the old housekeeper Zhou Fu quickly came over to greet her with a big smile.
Seeing this, Jiang Qin smiled and greeted the other person. She felt a little emotional, but didn't say much because at this moment, she wanted to see the old lady the most.
Zhou Fu led Jiang Qin all the way to the third floor before taking his leave.
The old lady seemed to realize that Jiang Qin might say something today, and was making dumplings at that moment.
According to the old lady's hometown tradition, children must eat dumplings before leaving home for a long journey.
As the elevator doors closed behind her, Jiang Qin entered and, thanks to her excellent eyesight, noticed something. She couldn't help but recall how, when she accompanied Huo Sili on a business trip overseas, the old lady had personally rolled out dumpling wrappers and mixed dumpling fillings for them.
We made them a big meal of dumplings with plenty of filling, and told them they absolutely had to eat some before they set off, saying it would bring good luck.
She hasn't told anyone other than Su Lejia and Song Xinye about faking her death.
No matter how powerful the old lady was, she wasn't a god. So at this moment, Jiang Qin naturally knew that the old lady definitely didn't know her plan, which was why she made dumplings.
As a result, Jiang Qin felt even more emotional, as if a bottle of various seasonings had been spilled, and the feeling was indescribably complicated, and her eyes also became sore.
"Grandma." She quickly wiped away the tears welling up in her eyes due to emotion.
Jiang Qin composed herself, stepped forward, and greeted him with a smile.
Qiu Huilan gets easily absorbed in making dumplings, but she has always been very perceptive of Jiang Qin's voice.
Hearing the familiar voice, the old man smiled kindly, "Oh, Qinqin's here!"
"Grandma's making dumplings now, do you want to come and help?"
The old lady smiled and said, "This time, in addition to your favorite three-delicacy filling and Grandma's favorite pickled cabbage and pork filling, I've also made a few more fillings. It's quite innovative. Let's see which one suits your taste better later."
"Okay." Jiang Qin smiled obediently and handed her bag to a maid who came forward. She quickly went to the island counter and carefully washed and dried her hands.
But he was just about to go to the old lady's side to make dumplings.
Suddenly, a sound came from the other end of the elevator; someone was coming upstairs.
Realizing who might be coming, Jiang Qin suddenly pursed her pink lips.
