Chapter 385 We will meet again
Just as Zhou Ning was feeling worried, he thought to himself that he might as well just knock on the door and see if anyone would open it.
No matter what method, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, you should give it a try.
I knocked on the door several times, but no one opened it.
Zhou Ning's heart sank to the bottom again.
My ankle hurts, and even if I want to run, I can't run fast.
Director Liu took this opportunity to finally catch up with Zhou Ning, and pulled her hair, his eyes full of anger:
"Run! Why don't you run!"
Zhou Ning was in so much pain that she grabbed Director Liu's arm and bit it hard.
Director Liu cried out in pain.
"How dare you bite me! I gave you face!"
Director Liu's face was twisted with anger. When he thought about the woman's coquettish look just now and realized that it was all fake, he got even more angry and slapped her in the face.
Zhou Ning's face suddenly felt burning with pain.
Director Liu was about to pull her back, and she was about to fight to the death, when suddenly, a figure appeared in front of her, grabbed Director Liu's arm and stopped him.
Director Liu quacked in pain and almost turned into a duck.
Zhou Ning looked over in panic and found that it was a charming and handsome man.
Director Liu took a breath and immediately pointed the finger at the man, yelling at him.
The seductive man remained calm, took out his cell phone, and said disdainfully: "If you continue to make trouble, I will call the police at any time."
Director Liu snorted and continued to fight against the seductive man.
But they were obviously no match for him as there was a gap in strength.
In the end, my arm was nearly broken from the pain.
The seductive man glanced at him casually and said, "Director Liu, you probably don't want the headlines tomorrow to be photos of you walking naked on the street, right?"
Director Liu panicked. The other party obviously knew his identity, and he subconsciously held tightly to his bathrobe which was about to fall apart.
After weighing the pros and cons, he looked around cautiously and glared at Zhou Ning angrily again.
"You're lucky today, just wait for me!"
After saying these harsh words, Director Liu staggered back.
Zhou Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief and thanked the charming man.
The seductive man stared at her for a few seconds before speaking, "You're welcome."
Zhou Ning thanked him again and mentioned that if the other party wanted any benefits, she would give them to him.
Unexpectedly, the charming man shook his head and said faintly: "No, we will meet again."
See you again?
Zhou Ning was confused and became curious about the seductive man's identity. When she was about to ask, he had already left.
Without having time to think too much, Zhou Ning realized that it was not advisable to stay here for long, so he left quickly.
Only after walking out of the hotel did Zhou Ning finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Thinking about what happened just now, my heart tightens.
I was so anxious that I even forgot the pain in my ankle.
Knowing that Huo Qingzhou was busy in a meeting, Zhou Ning still had some change on him, so he took a taxi and went home first.
Even though she was still frightened, Zhou Ning remained calm in front of the children, not wanting them to know that she had just experienced such a thrilling thing.
She really didn't dare to think about how she would face life in the future if Director Liu succeeded.
Only after returning to the bedroom alone did Zhou Ning dare to calm down and reminisce.
As a result, when Huo Qingzhou came back, he didn't see Zhou Ning first, and his brows were slightly frowned.
Beibei had long guessed what his father was thinking. His eyes had been looking around since he entered the door. Based on his years of experience, he was definitely looking for a wife.
"Mommy is resting in the room."
Xixi nodded in agreement: "Mommy said she was a little tired, so she went back to her room to sleep."
Upon hearing this, Huo Qingzhou frowned even more.
Is work so tiring?
Huo Qingzhou was so distressed that he quickly walked into the bedroom. He originally thought he would see Zhou Ning lying on the bed resting, but unexpectedly, he saw Zhou Ning sitting in a chair in a daze.
Huo Qingzhou walked over puzzled.
"Ningning, what are you thinking about?"
Noticing the movement, Zhou Ning was startled and looked back.
The moment they looked at each other, Huo Qingzhou clearly saw the fear that flashed across the woman's eyes, and immediately walked over worriedly.
Zhou Ning was still in a daze, but the moment she saw Huo Qingzhou appear in front of her, her eyes suddenly became moist, and a feeling of grievance surged in her heart.
She reached out and hugged the man's strong waist.
Huo Qingzhou was slightly stunned, and feeling the woman's emotional change, he gently touched her head and comforted her.
Suddenly noticing the red mark on Zhou Ning's arm, Huo Qingzhou quickly picked it up and took a closer look, then anxiously said, "Ning Ning, did something happen to you? Tell me."
Zhou Ning had breathing disorder.
I am thinking of the words in my heart.
She had originally planned to come back and tell Huo Qingzhou about this, because she didn't want to let Director Liu go.
The woman's face was covered by her hair. Huo Qingzhou half-knelt in front of her and gently lifted the strands of hair on both sides of her head.
I noticed a slightly red mark on half of the woman's cheek, but if you didn't look carefully, you wouldn't be able to see it.
Huo Qingzhou's heart tightened.
Although he was anxious, he still waited patiently for Zhou Ning to calm down and tell him what had happened.
After listening to what Zhou Ning said, Huo Qingzhou's face darkened to the extreme.
He touched Zhou Ning's face with heartache, clenched his teeth, and wished he could tear the rampant Director Liu into pieces.
He couldn't even bear to touch this face, so how dare Director Liu!
Holding Zhou Ning's hand tightly, Huo Qingzhou said in a hoarse voice: "Ning Ning, I'm sorry, I wish I was by your side."
After Zhou Ning had talked to Huo Qingzhou, she felt better, but when she saw Huo Qingzhou blaming himself, she quickly shook her head.
"It's not your fault. You don't have to apologize to me. You were not with me at the time, and I never thought this would happen."
Huo Qingzhou's chest seemed to be blocked by something and he was unable to speak for a while. He sat down next to Zhou Ning, hugged the woman in his arms, and gently rubbed her arms.
Realizing that the man's mood was terribly low at the moment, Zhou Ning spoke again:
"You don't have to worry about me now. Fortunately, I met a kind person on the way and was able to escape danger. Otherwise..."
Zhou Ning didn't dare to continue speaking halfway.
After a few seconds of calm, he changed the subject: "I didn't expect to suddenly meet Director Liu in the restaurant, and I didn't expect that he had such a strong desire for revenge and was so unrepentant that he still remembered this incident."
Huo Qingzhou's face was tense, and he spoke word by word: "Ningning, don't worry, I won't let him go."
Zhou Ning's nose felt sore.
She hugged Huo Qingzhou, wiped her tears on his shoulder, and said softly, "Hubby, you are so kind."
Huo Qingzhou's heart melted.
"My husband didn't help you in time. My husband didn't do a good job."
Huo Qingzhou's heartwarming words gradually made Zhou Ning let down her guard.
She hugged the man unscrupulously: "Husband, you have to hold me all the time today, I want to hang on you, okay?"
"it is good."
When facing Zhou Ning, the fierceness in Huo Qingzhou's eyes was no longer there, and there was a hint of tenderness at the corners of his mouth.
Hooking Zhou Ning's nose, he opened his thin lips and said, "Our Ning Ning is really great. She can deal with danger intelligently."
"I was just lucky this time. I ran into a kind person on the way."
"That's also due to your good fortune."
In order to calm Zhou Ning's emotions, Huo Qingzhou said these encouraging words on the surface, but he was actually heartbroken.
No matter how brave Zhou Ning appeared in the face of danger, Huo Qingzhou felt uncomfortable when he thought that she had to face it alone.
Just thinking of the helplessness Zhou Ning faced when she was alone, his heart felt like it was being crushed.
If only he was by Zhou Ning's side when he was so isolated and helpless!
Huo Qingzhou held Zhou Ning in his arms all night long, constantly comforting her.
