My husband disappeared after a flash marriage, but I am pregnant with his child

Chapter 73 Qiao Qin Discovered His Secret

After making sure that Huo Shiyan didn't care about those rumors, Qiao Qin breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little sweet in her heart.

They've made it public, I guess.

At this time, Assistant Yan suddenly came over and lowered his voice: "Mr. Huo, there has been progress in the previous investigation."

Huo Shiyan's eyes flickered slightly, he let go of her hand, and said softly, "I have something to go out for, I'll be back later."

Qiao Qin hummed and didn't ask any more questions.

In the blink of an eye.

The whole morning passed.

Qiao Qin raised her head from her busy work, stretched her stiff neck, and her eyes fell on the empty seat opposite her. She couldn't help but frowned.

Why haven't you come back yet?

"Knock Knock Knock-"

There was a sudden knock on the door.

The assistant came over with a stack of documents and handed her one of the contracts.

Qiao Qin glanced at the title and hesitated, "This doesn't seem to be a project I'm following."

"This is Mr. Huo's project." The assistant explained, then winked at her, "He needs to sign his name at the end."

Apparently someone had heard about what happened in the morning and wanted to take a shortcut, so they came to her to use Huo Shiyan's connections.

Qiao Qin said with a stern face, "I will give it to him. As for the rest, it is not my business."

"Thank you for your help, Sister Qiao." The assistant nodded repeatedly and did not forget to close the door before leaving.

Calm returned to the office.

Qiao Qin thought about it, picked up the contract and walked to Huo Shiyan's desk. She originally wanted to put it down and leave, but what Bai Mengyi said last night unconsciously emerged in her mind.

"You're just his pawn."

......

Qiao Qin glanced at the desk beside her and her heart moved slightly.

She would only look for it this once. If she couldn't find any evidence, she would forget what Bai Mengyi said and never doubt Huo Shiyan again.

Thinking of this, my hands began to move unconsciously.

Qiao Qin swallowed and concentrated highly, paying attention to the movements outside while searching on the table.

After a while.

She found that they were all company documents and there was nothing unusual, so she finally felt relieved.

Qiao Qin just relaxed when her eyes suddenly swept across the wooden drawer under the desk. When she opened it, it was empty inside, but there was a slight color difference.

She was very sensitive to colors and immediately noticed something was wrong. She bent her fingers slightly and knocked on the wooden board, and as expected, a hollow sound was heard.

There is a secret compartment!

Qiao Qin's pupils shrank slightly, she held her breath, and carefully lifted the wooden board underneath.

What came into view was a file, hundreds of pages thicker than a dictionary.

Name: Qiao Qin

Age: 23

Current residence: Huo Family Villa, Yuncheng.

The homepage only contains some basic information, such as education, occupation, hobbies, etc. The more you scroll down, the more frightening it becomes.

The file records her experiences from childhood to adulthood in great detail, even more complete than the memories in her mind, and the most recent page records just yesterday, including what she did in the morning, who she met, and so on.

Huo Shiyan is investigating her!

When Qiao Qin realized this, she felt like she was struck by lightning. Her mind was shaken violently, as if the whole world was collapsing in front of her.

There is a voice in my heart that is about to come out.

Bai Mengyi did not lie, what she said was true, and it was Huo Shiyan who deliberately approached her from the beginning.

Qiao Qin's face was pale, the light in her eyes was completely shattered, her frail figure was shaky, and she only managed to stand firm by clinging to the corner of the desk.

No wonder.

She said how could anyone be interested in a pregnant widow, it would make sense if everything was planned.

Just why?

What value did she have that required Huo Shiyan to spend so much time and effort on her, and even endure humiliation and stay by her side?

money?

Or is it the Huo family’s resources?

Qiao Qin was still immersed in the unbelievable fact when suddenly, footsteps were heard approaching from afar outside the corridor.

There was a flash of panic in her eyes, and she hurriedly put the file back, put all the items back in their original places, and later she didn't have time to walk to the position.

next second.

The door has been pushed open.

Qiao Qin's whole body was stiff, as if it was frozen, and the blood in his body solidified.

"What's wrong? What are you doing standing here?"

A familiar voice came from behind.

Qiao Qin turned around slowly and saw Huo Shiyan standing at the door, his dark and deep eyes staring at her.

"Plop! Plop!"

My heart was beating so wildly that it seemed like it was going to jump out of my throat.

Qiao Qin hastily looked away, not daring to continue staring. She lowered her head and clenched the corners of her clothes tightly with both hands, squeezing so hard that her knuckles turned slightly white.

"No, it's okay."

She was so nervous that her voice became stammering.

Huo Shiyan frowned, realizing that something was wrong with the person in front of him. He took a step forward and was about to help her tuck the loose hair behind her ears.

result.

Qiao Qin actually turned sideways and avoided his touch.

Huo Shiyan's eyes flickered slightly, and he silently withdrew his hand that was frozen in mid-air.

The air suddenly became frozen, and an awkward atmosphere spread between the two of them.

Qiao Qin was stunned for a moment before she realized that her actions just now seemed a bit extreme. She explained dryly: "I, I didn't wash my hair last night."

Huo Shiyan could tell at a glance that she was lying, but he didn't delve into it and changed the subject.

"Are you free tonight? I'll take you somewhere."

"No, no."

Qiao Qin refused without even thinking.

She was in a state of confusion now. She was completely unable to accept the secret she had just peeped into. She even felt suffocated standing in the same space with Huo Shiyan.

Qiao Qin's body was trembling slightly. She was so scared that she didn't even dare to look up, worried that the person in front of her would notice her abnormality.

"I, I suddenly remembered that I have an appointment with Xiao Ran this afternoon. I'll leave first."

After saying that, she hurried out of the office, her steps so fast that it seemed as if there was an evil ghost chasing her.

Huo Shiyan stood where he was.

The door was half open, and one could still see Qiao Qin's fleeing back.

He glanced at the slightly messy desk, his eyes dark and unclear. Soon Assistant Yan walked in and asked in confusion:

"Miss Qiao, why are you leaving in such a hurry? I called you twice just now but you didn't respond."

He was answered by silence.

Sensing the low pressure on Mr. Huo, Assistant Yan immediately shut up and complained in his heart.

We've only been together for a few days, why are we quarreling again?

After a while.

Huo Shiyan then spoke slowly: "Check what happened in the office just now."

Assistant Yan nodded, a little hesitant: "The arrangement for tonight..."

"Cancel." Huo Shiyan said in a deep voice.

The atmosphere around seemed to drop instantly.

Assistant Yan didn't dare to stay any longer and turned around to do his work.

at the same time.

Qiao Qin had returned to the villa and was curled up on the bed alone. She hugged her knees with her hands and buried her head in her arms, but she couldn't help trembling all over.

cold!

It’s so cold!

Suddenly, I felt a piercing pain in my stomach.

Qiao Qin’s eyes went dark and before she could call for help, she fell backwards and fainted from the pain.
