Chapter 42 Call a doctor quickly! Quickly!!!
Having said that, without waiting for Xie You'an's reaction, Huo Sili turned and walked out.
He was tall and had a composed gait; even just looking at his back, one could see his strong confidence and innate nobility.
The black Cullinan was parked not far ahead. Upon seeing Horstley arrive, He Xu, who was waiting outside, quickly opened the rear door.
The previous Cullinan was taken to a car wash by He Xu; this is another one belonging to Huo Sili.
Huo Sili's gaze swept over the license plate and walked towards the car door. Faced with such a respectful attitude, he stepped into the car with great ease.
When Xie Youan glanced over, she happened to see the man getting into the car with such composure that it was almost elegant.
He had to admit that the aura that Huo Sili possessed was something he had never been able to replicate, no matter how hard he tried.
It was something he had never possessed before.
Xie Youan tightened his grip on the shopping bag, and his eyes, which had been smiling just moments before, slowly frosted over.
The man stepped into the elevator and pressed the close button.
At the same time, in the back seat of the Cullinan, Horstley leaned back in his leather seat and unconsciously turned his head slightly to look at the empty seat next to him.
He Xu felt frustrated again when he saw no one coming from ahead.
So, when President Huo went upstairs just now, it was... a complete waste of time?
It seems so. Huo Sili's emotionless voice came through the car communicator: "Return to Yunhai Huafu."
He Xu remained silent, not daring to say more, and simply replied with a "yes" before driving away.
……
That evening, upstairs in the apartment building, Xie Youan said goodbye first after finishing his cake and then left.
Su Lejia then took Jiang Qin to watch another heartwarming movie, and finally said it was too late, so Jiang Qin could make do with the room in the apartment for the night.
Jiang Qin naturally understood that Su Lejia was actually worried that it might be unsafe for her to go back to the villa late at night.
In addition, her biological clock has been adjusted recently, and she feels sleepy at the right time. She also brought her folic acid tablets with her.
Not wanting to make a fuss, he stayed overnight as Su Lejia wished.
The next day, Sunday, Su Lejia invited her to have breakfast with him again before letting her leave.
The old house's housekeeper, Zhou Fu, sent a car to pick her up. Jiang Qin got into the car and waved to Su Lejia and Zhou Junxuan, who had driven her there, saying, "See you next time."
"Okay, be careful on the road and tell the driver to slow down," Su Lejia said.
"Okay." Jiang Qin agreed, got into the car, and fastened her seatbelt.
Looking at the driver, I had just finished saying "Please drive slowly" and received a respectful response from the driver. Looking ahead, I suddenly caught a figure out of the corner of my eye.
The other person was actually dressed quite modestly compared to before, but probably because of that face, she noticed her immediately—it was Li Xueqian, whom she hadn't seen for some days.
Li Xueqian was walking briskly on the sidewalk with another girl. She was holding a cell phone and making a call, probably because she had encountered something shocking, and her tone was quite incredulous.
"What did you say? Are you sure?! No, you're not kidding me, are you, Sister Hong?"
When the other party said no, Li Xueqian got a little angry.
"I've already had my costume fitting done for that role! So what if it's the director? Does the director get to just change actors like that?"
As she spoke, Li Xueqian seemed to realize they were still on the road, and quickly lowered her voice, but her anger was clearly still lingering. "What do you mean I'm anxious? I'm the one who was replaced, how can I not be anxious? An actor's time is precious!"
"Alright, I'm not talking to you anymore. I'm going to find Sligo for help."
Just as she heard this, the car drove past Li Xueqian.
The driver in front undoubtedly heard Li Xueqian's words as well, and his expression became somewhat awkward for a moment.
In the back seat of the car, Jiang Qin showed no emotional fluctuations; at this moment, she was pondering something—
When she sees the old lady later, how should she bring up resigning without aggravating the old lady's condition?
……
The Huo family's old residence, the main building on the third floor.
Upon seeing Mrs. Huo again, Jiang Qin prepared to steer the conversation toward her plan to resign.
However, the old lady seemed to be in an exceptionally good mood today, and she hadn't even called out "Grandma" yet.
The old lady greeted her warmly, "Qinqin's here! Come on in, have a seat!"
"We just received a few pieces of jadeite, all of the best quality! Grandma, I'd like to have some items made for you! Come over and choose whether you want a bracelet, a pendant, a ring, or something else! We have a catalog here with the specific type you'd like!"
Looking at Old Madam Huo's exceptionally happy face, Jiang Qin's already complicated feelings became even more complicated. She opened her mouth, but ultimately couldn't bear to speak at this moment.
Several maids, with keen insight, presented her with a catalog. After thinking for a moment, Jiang Qin decided to go along with the old lady and choose a style first.
After a moment, he didn't forget his business and said to Qiu Huilan, "Grandma, there's something I want to tell you."
Grandma Huo was happily helping Jiang Qin choose a style when she saw it. "Hey, Qinqin, what do you say?"
Jiang Qin took a deep breath, looked at Qiu Huilan, and spoke in a calm but firm tone.
"I want to leave the Huo family. I've never liked the position of Sleeley's secretary; I want to pursue..."
Qiu Huilan's fingers trembled. Upon hearing this, she suddenly looked at Jiang Qin.
Her heart suddenly ached, and Jiang Qin forced back the tears welling in her eyes as she finished speaking.
"...I want to pursue a career that I love."
Qiu Huilan was trembling slightly. Jiang Qin noticed this and her pupils contracted slightly. She quickly patted Qiu Huilan's back.
"Don't worry."
Qiu Huilan took Jiang Qin's hand and looked at her with her aged face, her eyes visibly red.
"Qinqin, so you...you resigned, and you and Sili...you two..."
"Are you still Grandma's granddaughter-in-law? You, you still want to divorce Sili, don't you?!"
The force in her hand suddenly disappeared, and Jiang Qin, who was distracted, was shocked. She looked at Qiu Huilan abruptly.
"grandmother!"
Upon seeing the scene before her, Jiang Qin's face turned pale instantly. She quickly helped the old lady up and looked at the old lady's personal maid.
"Call a doctor! Quickly!!!"
