After rebirth, Mrs. Huo only wanted a divorce

Chapter 196 Climbing along the pole

Huo Yanci glanced at Qiao Shinian expressionlessly, as if he couldn't see the gnashing of her teeth, and said indifferently: "I hope you will do what you say and don't be perfunctory."

Qiao Shinian: "..." Why didn't I realize that Huo Yanci was so good at climbing things before?

"I'm thirsty, give me some water." Huo Yanci also ordered her as a matter of course.

Qiao Shinian endured it, glared at Huo Yanci, and finally walked to the water dispenser, got him a glass of warm water, and handed the cup to him.

Huo Yanci glanced at the water glass and was not in a hurry to take it.

Qiao Shinian thought in her heart that if Huo Yanci dared to embarrass her and asked her to feed him water, she would throw the glass of water directly on his face to make him understand the situation.

Not sure if he noticed her thoughts, Huo Yanci glanced at her with his dark eyes, and then reached out to take the water.

After drinking, Huo Yanci didn't make any other requests. He put down the water glass and closed his eyes to calm down.

Qiao Shinian sat down in the chair next to him.

After a busy day today, taking over a new job, meeting Yu Jingcheng, and having such an accident, Qiao Shinian was really exhausted.

Seeing Huo Yanci closing his eyes to rest, she also squinted her eyes. The warm breeze in the room made Qiao Shinian drowsy.

She didn't know how long it had passed, but she felt something warm caressing her lips.

The skinny man had put a piece of tape on her before, and it hurt her skin when she peeled it off. The force of the caress was neither light nor heavy, and the temperature was just right. Qiao Shinian felt sleepy and tired, and it was so comfortable that she really didn't want to open her eyes.

Soon, the warmth reached her face, and after a long pause, it touched her eyebrows.

Qiao Shinian felt uncomfortable and frowned.

The warmth between his brows and eyes was still there, but there was no other movement.

When Qiao Shinian was about to fall asleep again, she vaguely felt something approaching her, and her lips felt slightly moist.

Qiao Shinian was sleepy and didn't want to answer it. Suddenly, she remembered that she didn't seem to be sleeping on a hotel bed!

Qiao Shinian was excited and quickly opened his eyes.

What he saw was a hospital ward, and she was still sitting in the chair, but she was too sleepy, so she was lying on the bedside.

Qiao Shinian sat up straight. The infusion needle in Huo Yanci's hand had been removed at some point. At this moment, he maintained the same sitting and lying posture as before, closing his eyes and concentrating.

Moreover, he was breathing heavily and his handsome eyebrows were furrowed, as if the wound hurt and made him uncomfortable.

Qiao Shinian touched his cheeks and lips, and there seemed to be nothing abnormal.

There was a bed in the ward. Qiao Shinian was too sleepy to care about Huo Yanci, so he crawled onto the bed and continued to sleep.

They didn't even notice that after she fell asleep, Huo Yanci on the bed next to her had already opened his eyes, and there was still a bit of burning heat in his dark eyes.

……

When Qiao Shinian woke up again, he heard Zhou Tiancheng's soft voice coming from the corridor outside.

Huo Yanci was no longer in the ward, so he probably went outside as well.

It was said that she stayed to take care of Huo Yanci, but she ended up occupying the ward and sleeping, letting the patient Huo Yanci go outside, which was a sin.

Qiao Shinian sat up from the bed and found some clean women's clothing and some unopened toiletries at the end of the bed.

It should have been sent by Zhou Tiancheng.

It was not a problem for Qiao Shinian to be wearing pajamas. She took her clothes and toiletries and went to the bathroom.

After getting it done, Qiao Shinian found that Huo Yanci and Zhou Tiancheng had returned to the ward.

Huo Yanci was sitting on the hospital bed, his face looking more energetic than yesterday, while Zhou Tiancheng continued to report things to him.

Seeing her, Huo Yanci's expression did not change. Zhou Tiancheng called out without changing his expression: "Mrs."

Zhou Tiancheng definitely did it on purpose, he had clearly reminded him yesterday.

Qiao Shinian didn't bother about what he called him, and asked hurriedly, "Special Assistant Zhou, did those two people explain last night? Who instigated them?"

Zhou Tiancheng replied respectfully: "Madam, the other party has already confessed that it is Cheng Wanxin from the Cheng family. Now Cheng Wanxin has been taken for questioning by the police."

Qiao Shinian was slightly surprised when he heard the name Cheng Wanxin.

Ever since Cheng Wanxin went to her grandpa's house to please her grandpa but she drove her away, they had never seen each other or had any contact with each other.

Why would she want someone to deal with her?

Seeing Qiao Shinian's doubts, Zhou Tiancheng informed, "Madam, you should also know that Cheng Wanxin is a huge suspect in the Qiao family's tax case."

It was either a suspicion or it was Cheng Wanxin who did it, but there was no evidence to convict her.

"So, what does this have to do with me? Why does Cheng Wanxin want to deal with me?" Qiao Shinian couldn't understand.

She was not involved in this incident from beginning to end.

Zhou Tiancheng told, "It is said that it was because your aunt went to her house to make trouble. She thought it was all your idea, so she hated you and found those two people to arrest you and teach you a lesson."

Qiao Shinian knew that her aunt went to Cheng's house and made a big fuss. Yu Jingcheng told her yesterday.

But Qiao Shinian never expected that Cheng Wanxin would blame her for this!

"Special Assistant Zhou, can I go see Cheng Wanxin now?"

Cheng Wanxin has acted like a monster several times, but this time she behaved like this. Qiao Shinian wanted to find out about it from Cheng Wanxin.

Zhou Tiancheng glanced at his boss, nodded and said: "It's okay, madam, you are the victim after all, and you have the right to know the cause and effect."

Qiao Shinian said, "Then let's go now."

"I'll go with you." Huo Yanci also got up from the bed.

Qiao Shinian refused, "No, you're not feeling well, so don't move around."

"Are you worried that my injury will become serious and you want to take care of me for a few more days?" Huo Yanci asked.

Qiao Shinian did have this thought in her mind. She curled her lips and said, "The main thing has nothing to do with you. There is no need for you to go."

Huo Yanci pointed to his injury after hearing this, "I am also one of the victims. Why is there no need to go?"

"..." The same principle applies.

Qiao Shinian didn't refuse anymore, and when he picked up his coat and was about to walk out, his cell phone suddenly rang in the room.

The unfamiliar ringtone made Qiao Shinian look at Zhou Tiancheng, "Yours?"

Zhou Tiancheng shook his head, "No."

Huo Yanci's cell phone was placed by the bedside, and it was obviously not his.

Whose is that?

"Madam, the ringtone seems to be coming from there." Zhou Tiancheng pointed to a white suit jacket in the corner.

Only then did Qiao Shinian remember that Mo Xiuyuan gave her a mobile phone last night and asked her to call her if she had anything to do.

She completely forgot about it when she took off her coat yesterday, and her phone was placed in the corner with her coat.

Huo Yanci obviously knew who the call was from, and his expression instantly became unsightly.

Qiao Shinian ignored him and went directly over to take out his cell phone.

Opening the screen, Mo Xiuyuan's voice sounded on the other end, "Qiao Shiji, why did it take you so long to answer the phone?"

Qiao Shinianqing coughed and said truthfully: "I didn't know it was your phone ringing. Why do you want to see me so early?"

Mo Xiuyuan said, "Yesterday's incident has been investigated. When we meet, do you come out or should I go find you?"

Qiao Shinian declined, "No, I already know who is behind the scenes. Now I plan to go to the police station."

"You didn't go back to the hotel last night and were with Huo Yanci?"

"Second update"
