Mr. Huo, stop being abusive. Miss Fu is going on a blind date again.

Li Qin's heart skipped a beat. She pushed Qi Ce away and sat up, "What are you going to do?"

She knew very well that Qi Ce was a man of his word. When she told him about the beastly things Lu Youguang had done to her, he promised her that he would kill Lu Youguang. Sure enough, she listened soon after. News of Lu Youguang's death arrived.

She knew at that moment that Qi Ce was paranoid and ruthless, and could easily kill someone.

Qi Ce's eyes flashed slightly. She was so anxious. Could it be that she was afraid that he would do something bad? Did she still want to marry Huo Mingzheng?

He said gloomily: "Don't you want to take revenge on Mr. Huo? Shouldn't you be happy if I do this?"

Li Qin pinched his fingers tightly, his eyes were red, and his clenched lips trembled visibly, "What did you do?"

She vaguely guessed something, her whole body was trembling, and the cold air came from the cracks in her bones and spread to her limbs.

Qi Ce looked into her eyes and said in a gentle voice, "I gave him a chronic poison."

"You are crazy!"

Li Qin raised his voice and his face turned paler than before.

How could Mr. Huo die at this time?

Qi Ce suddenly grabbed her shoulders and asked her: "Don't you want to see him die? As long as he dies, you won't have to stay with Huo Minzheng and pretend to be around, and you won't have to marry him or steal the Huo family." The secret can defeat the Huo family, and I can do it in one step, which can save us a lot of time!"

"Of course I want to see him die," Li Qin frowned, his eyes red, "If it weren't for him, my family wouldn't be ruined, and I wouldn't be killed by Lu Youguang..."

She gritted her teeth that couldn't stop trembling, and her tears fell uncontrollably.

But, but...

Not at this time, at this juncture, he cannot die!

If Mrs. Huo dies, she will no longer have an excuse to delay. Qi Ce will definitely stop her, and she will not be able to marry A Zheng.

No, she had tried her best to come back to Nancheng and return to A Zheng, but she wouldn't just give up.

She grabbed Qi Ce's hand with her backhand, pinching his flesh with her nails, "When did you poison him?"

"A few days ago." Qi Ce looked into her eyes and said in his heart, that was the day you lied to me.

He narrowed his eyes and said in a light voice, "Do you want to tell Huo Mingzheng?"

Li Qin paused, and Qi Ce continued: "Xiao Qin, do you know the consequences of telling A Zheng? Do you understand?"

Tell Huo Mingzheng that Huo Mingzheng will find out about her, and then the things about her will be completely exposed.

But she didn't want to leave A Zheng.

She suddenly realized that Qi Ce was testing her, poisoning Mrs. Huo, pushing her into a dead end, and letting her make her own choice.

One step forward is to leave Nancheng with him, one step back is to expose everything.

It turns out that Qi Ce has really begun to doubt her motives. He has too many things about her in his hands, which is equivalent to her life. Her future is in his hands.

Unknowingly and silently, Qi Ce is the one who can destroy her at any time.

His surrender turned out to be his conquest.

Realizing this, she felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

There is no way she can retreat.

unless……

She frowned hard.

She whispered: "Why do you think so? How could I tell A Zheng! You are doing these things for me. I am just worried that Mr. Huo will not be able to hold on before your property is transferred..."

"No, the dose I administered is not large. The poison will be released slowly, much slower than the speed that killed Lu Youguang. It will kill him without anyone noticing. The Huo family will only think that he has died. "

Li Qin's body couldn't stop trembling.

Qi Ce gently held her in his arms and said, "Xiaoqin, don't be afraid. Once we leave Nancheng, we will be free."

She gritted her teeth and squeezed out one word, "Okay."

Li Qin was in his arms and turned to look out the dark window. Was he really free?

No, she wants to stay, she wants to be by A Zheng's side and become his wife!

……

Fu Yan thought of the activities at the orphanage in his hometown twenty days later, and all the cells in his body seemed to come alive.

She subconsciously looked at the man behind the desk, her fingers tapping rapidly on the keyboard, her cold eyes falling on the screen, not paying attention to her side.

She got up and walked to the bookshelf, trying to distract herself by reading and stop thinking about that matter, lest Huo Mingzheng notice anything.

There were many books on Huo Mingzheng's bookshelf. In the row that was most suitable for her height, she randomly pulled out an original foreign book. When she turned the first page, something fell out of the book.

She hurriedly bent down to pick it up, but she recognized it as a bookmark she had made while studying.

When she was in middle school, she liked to make bookmarks by herself, drawing cartoon characters on the bookmark cards and adding a witty or encouraging word to herself.

However, she was careless and often lost her bookmarks, so she made a lot of them and replaced them with new ones when they were lost. In the past two or three years, she frequently visited Huo Mingzheng's study. It seems that all the bookmarks were lost in his study.

But every time she went back to look, she found nothing.

Now, the bookmark card appears in Huo Mingzheng's book.

Fu Yan suddenly realized something. She closed the book, took out another book from the row of bookshelves, opened it, and found another bookmark.

She pulled out another book, opened it, and found another bookmark.

original……

All the lost bookmarks were confiscated by Huo Ming.

Fu Yan's fingers seemed to be burned, and several books in his hand fell to the ground.

There was the sound of the office chair moving behind him. Huo Minzheng opened his slender legs and strode towards her. He first took her hand and checked, "What's wrong?"

Fu Yan looked away, feeling complicated, "You stole my bookmark."

Huo Mingzheng looked down and saw that the book that fell on the ground was in a mess, with a corner of the bookmark vaguely exposed.

"If it fell in my study, I thought it was mine."

Fu Yan sneered, it was really Huo Minzheng's domineering speech. Anything that falls in his territory belongs to him?

"Qin Heng said I don't have a mouth, and I admit it." He whispered, holding her hand and not letting go. On the bridge of his handsome nose, a pair of dark jade-like eyes frowned with a hint of nervousness that had never appeared before.

Fu Yan pursed her lips, and a ridiculous idea flashed through her mind. It was so ridiculous that she didn't know whether to be angry or sneer.

She met Huo Minzheng's gaze, "So you deliberately led me to the study room, and then induced me to read the books on the bookshelf. The height of these books was also calculated to make it easier for me to take them. In order for me to see the bookmarks and know that you are actually there, I have been happy for a long time..."

Huo Minzheng stared into her eyes tightly, added what she had not finished, and said in a low voice: "I like you."
