Yan Qiang was left hanging in the hotel by Huo Qi for a whole afternoon.
Seeing the sky darkening outside the window, Yan Qiang opened the door and prepared to leave.
She wants to go back to Qingzhou.
Unexpectedly, Wen Yiran was still guarding the door.
"I'm sorry, Miss Yan, you can't leave now." Wen Yiran stretched out his hand to block Yan Qiang's way, "Mr. Huo will be here soon."
Yan Qiang lost her patience, "Assistant Wen, it's better to get out of the way. You have no right to restrict my personal freedom. I have to catch a flight, so I won't accompany you."
She knew that Huo Qi was deliberately trying to frustrate her, wanting to dampen her spirit.
Since the quarrel in Jingyuan half a month ago, the two have not had any contact.
Today at Wan'an Mountain, Huo Qi didn't even look at her.
He was just waiting for her to give in, wanting to crush her spine bit by bit so that she would no longer be able to straighten her spine in front of him.
Wen Yiran refused to give in.
"Ms. Yan, please wait a little longer. Mr. Huo should be downstairs by now." His tone was much gentler.
"OK."
Yan Qiang raised her hand and looked at her watch, then looked straight at Wen Yiran, "Ten minutes, if he doesn't show up in ten minutes, just let me go."
Wen Yiran: "..."
He can't be the master.
Wen Yiran looked apologetic: "Miss Yan, I only obey the boss's orders."
Yan Qiang's face turned cold.
She looked at Wen Yiran's firm posture, and after making sure that he would not let her leave, she said lightly, "Assistant Wen doesn't think that if I want to go out, I can just hold the door, right?"
Wen Yiran didn't understand for a moment at first.
But after realizing what Yan Qiang was going to do, his whole body suddenly tensed up.
"Miss Yan!" His tone was a little urgent, "Miss Yan, don't be impulsive. I'll call Mr. Huo. Can you wait a little longer?"
Yan Qiang stared at him: "Hit."
Wen Yiran was really in a dilemma now. He could only take out his mobile phone and call Huo Qi. As soon as he dialed, he heard Yan Qiang say: "Turn on the loudspeaker."
"...Miss Yan, please don't embarrass me."
As soon as Wen Yiran finished speaking, Yan Qiang turned around and was about to enter the door. He was startled and said quickly, "I'll open it!"
Yan Qiang paused and turned around.
The phone beeped for a long time but no one answered it. Wen Yiran was very anxious. Seeing Yan Qiang's face getting more and more ugly, he could only comfort him first: "Miss Yan, Mr. Huo is very busy today. He has many things--"
"Can I leave?"
Yan Qiang calmly interrupted his excuses for Huo Qi.
There was no emotion on that unforgettable face at the moment.
But it also makes people feel more and more dangerous.
Wen Yiran had no choice but to take two steps back: "I'll take Miss Yan to the airport."
After all, she was the eldest daughter of the Yan family and Mr. Huo's woman. He was also afraid that Yan Qiang would do something irreversible.
Sending her to the airport was the only thing he could control at the moment.
Yan Qiang: "Lead the way."
As soon as the two entered the elevator, Wen Yiran's phone rang.
The words "Mr. Huo" appeared clearly in Yan Qiang's sight on the screen.
Wen also connected.
"What's up?"
Huo Qi's voice came out from the phone, showing coldness and exhaustion.
Wen Yiran reported truthfully: "Miss Yan is going to Qingzhou."
"Leave her there!"
The elevator is so big, and the sound coming from the mobile phone echoes in this quiet and confined space.
Yan Qiang pursed her lower lip.
"Mr. Huo," Wen Yiran said after a slight hesitation, "Miss Yan wants to jump out of the window."
There was sudden silence on the other end of the phone.
After a few seconds, Huo Qi sneered, "Let her dance!"
Wen Yiran glanced at Yan Qiang subconsciously, looking awkward for a moment.
Yan Qiang stared straight ahead and turned a deaf ear, only the hand holding the bag unconsciously stroking the handle of the bag.
"Mr. Huo." Wen Yiran lowered his voice, "That's the twelfth floor."
What is the concept of jumping from the twelfth floor?
Either dead or disabled.
Illegal imprisonment caused Yan Qiang to jump off the building, which was even more of a crime.
Before Huo Qi said something colder, Wen Yiran quickly said: "Mr. Huo, it was my fault. I didn't take good care of Miss Yan."
"Take her down to the parking lot."
Huo Qi's words made Wen Yiran sigh in relief and quickly responded: "Yes!"
After hanging up the phone, Wen Yiran put away the phone and remained respectful to Yan Qiang: "Sorry, Miss Yan, I can't take you to the airport. Mr. Huo is downstairs."
Yan Qiang's expression remained calm, "I understand."
The elevator has reached the second floor.
Cullinan stopped at the entrance of the elevator. The fire had not yet been extinguished. Huo Qi, who was wearing a black suit, leaned against the car door with his legs propped up, one hand in his trouser pocket, and the other hand holding a mobile phone while making a call.
The underground parking lot is not that bright.
Huo Qi lowered his eyebrows and barely moved there, but from a long distance, he could still feel the coldness and solemnity exuding from his body.
Hearing the noise, he looked up.
On the face with deep outlines, the eyes were dark and heavy, and they fixed their gaze on Yan Qiang accurately and quickly.
But only for a second.
He looked away indifferently, said "hang up" to the other end of the phone, and then raised his eyes to look at Yan Qiang again.
She has come closer.
Also dressed in black, the long windbreaker wrapped her slender body inside, leaving a pair of shapely calves exposed, dazzlingly white in the darkness.
"Mr. Huo."
Wen Yiran stood aside.
Huo Qi nodded lightly, "It's time to get off work."
"Yes, Mr. Huo."
Wen Yiran quickly turned around and left, leaving space for the two people behind him.
There were occasional roars in the parking lot.
Huo Qi's eyes went up from her calves to her cold and charming face.
"Jump out of the window? Twelfth floor?"
He played with his phone and snorted, "Okay, you know how to threaten people with their lives."
Yan Qiang tightened her grip on the bag.
She had not forgotten his ruthless words "let her jump" in the elevator just now.
She looked at Huo Qi and smiled slightly, "It's just a lie to Assistant Wen, you won't take it seriously."
Huo Qi stared at her.
It seemed like he wanted to tear apart her hypocritical smile and see how much truth was hidden underneath.
Yan Qiang did not move.
Even the heart is beating fast.
"Just know I won't take it seriously."
Huo Qi straightened up, opened the door and got in the car. Seeing Yan Qiang still standing there, his eyes darkened: "Get in the car."
Yan Qiang was silent for two seconds, then walked around the back of the car and got into the passenger seat.
She didn't ask him where he was going.
Because he wouldn’t tell me if I asked him.
When the car drove out of the parking lot, it was completely dark. The dim street lights and various bright LED signs illuminated the dark night again.
Colorful and dazzling.
Yan Qiang sat quietly in the car, neither speaking nor looking at him, only focusing on the street scene outside the window.
Seeing that the lights were getting fewer and fewer, the noisy city was left behind, and no other buildings could be seen except the street lights, she finally noticed something was wrong.
She has walked this road today.
