Chapter 436: Pawn? Or the Manipulator?
Chapter 436: Pawn? Or the Manipulator?
The capital was in turmoil, but Huo Tingchen remained in Jingcheng, pretending not to know what was happening.
But I am anxious day and night.
He strengthened the protection of his wife and the Huo family, and kept a close eye on the news from the capital.
However, there has been no progress.
Meng Huan and his daughter seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, without any trace being found.
Fortunately, nothing bad has happened so far.
"Honey, you haven't been in a good mood lately. Is the company encountering problems?" Chu Ciyou came to serve afternoon tea again.
Since the last time, Huo Tingchen never had any "inappropriate thoughts" about her again, as if he suddenly became indifferent.
She felt it was strange and observed him quietly for a few days before she discovered that something was wrong with his mood.
"You're just holding it in?" Huo Tingchen joked.
Chu Ci was worried and his face was full of black lines.
"I'm just kidding. I'm not that beastly. Didn't you say you couldn't buy the maternity clothes you liked? I customized a batch for you. Go take a look later."
"Well, maternity clothes can be bought anyway. You're really making too much trouble." Chu Ciyou was helpless and speechless.
She just said it casually, but he actually made a big fuss about customizing it.
What pregnant woman would do this? Her belly is getting bigger and bigger, and she can't wear it for a few months.
"What use am I if I don't even have money to buy clothes for my wife?" Huo Tingchen smiled and took Chu Ciyou's hand to the mall.
He accompanied her shopping in the mall so easily, so it shouldn’t be a big deal, right?
In order to verify his guess, Chu Ciyou also secretly asked Jiang Bei.
"Everything is going well at the company, don't worry, Mrs. Xiao Huo."
Completely relieved.
Chu Ciyou happily held hands with Huo Tingchen.
A series of beautiful and unique maternity clothes appeared before her eyes, and Chu Ciyou was surprised and happy.
"Wow! So beautiful!"
“Go ahead and give it a try!”
Huo Tingchen told the waiter to take good care of him and he went to the rest area to wait.
"Mrs. Xiao Huo, the waistlines of these clothes can be changed. You can wear them until you give birth. Would you like to try?"
"No need to try, just take them all back!"
Although it was a waste, these were the thoughts from her husband, so Chu Ciyou happily accepted them.
"Mrs. Xiao Huo, you can choose a set to change into first. These clothes have been washed and can be worn directly."
"Row."
Chu Ciyou picked out a breathable cotton and linen maternity dress, and the costume designer even customized maternity leggings for her, which was very thoughtful.
"it's beautiful."
Huo Tingchen smiled with satisfaction.
The shop assistants echoed the praise, and Chu Ciyou felt embarrassed and took a selfie in the mirror.
Since she had some free time, she fell in love with taking photos.
Take photos of Ah Man, take photos of Huo Tingchen... Use your mobile phone to record happy moments. It will be interesting to make a photo album when you are old.
"Mrs. Huo, Mr. Huo is so kind to you."
"There is only one husband like Mr. Huo in Panorama City!"
"..."
Chu Ciyou looked back and looked at Huo Tingchen affectionately.
He was her only one, the only one in the whole world.
But Huo Tingchen was busy with his phone and didn't catch her gaze for a long time.
Chu Ciyou felt strange and quietly walked behind him to take a peek.
[Has Meng Huan been found? ]
[Not yet. Are you still tracking Qin Huanlan? ]
Chu Ciyou's face changed drastically, and he blurted out: "Meng Huan ran away?"
It was too late for Huo Tingchen to put down his phone.
Looking at his wife's pale face, he comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, he can't leave the capital."
"Why did he run away? Is the security of your Shenlong so bad?" Chu Ciyou was depressed and scared.
I'm so afraid that Meng Qi will continue to stare at Huo Tingchen and cause trouble again.
Meng Qi is probably the craziest love rival in the world.
Really, the psychological trauma that the Chu family brought to her was not as great as that caused by Meng Qi!
"A wanted warrant has been issued and he will be caught soon." Huo Tingchen took Chu Ciyou's hand and kissed it on his lips.
He wanted to reassure her, but he couldn't seem to.
Chu Ciyou's face turned pale, and he was frightened from the bottom of his heart.
"Honey, don't be afraid. Trust me!"
"What about Qin Huanlan?"
"she……"
Huo Tingchen was silent for a moment, but decided to tell the truth.
"Huo Tingyuan has severe schizophrenia, and she is looking for a doctor to cure him. You know, Qin Huanlan only has this one relative now."
"Congenital schizophrenia cannot be cured, right?" Chu Ci asked worriedly.
If it can be cured, there is no reason for the Huo family not to treat him. The grudges of the previous generation should not be avenged on the child.
"Yes." Huo Tingchen nodded, "I have consulted Dr. Lu about his condition."
"That……"
Chu Ciyou thought of A'man, but rationally didn't dare to mention it.
It's true that Huo Tingyuan is innocent, but who can guarantee that he didn't become bad under Qin Yufang's teachings?
"Everyone has his own cause and effect. Not all relatives are worth Aman's help." Huo Tingchen saw through Chu Ciyou's thoughts and said with a smile.
Chu Ciyou nodded vigorously: "Yes!"
"Okay, cheer up, shall we go shopping again?"
"Ah."
Huo Tingchen asked the waiter to deliver all the clothes to the car. The couple visited several baby products stores and bought bottles and small clothes.
Chu Ciyou chose all pink tones. Huo Tingchen suspected that she was pregnant with a girl and raised the corners of his lips.
He's going to have a little lover!
The little episode about Meng Huan and his daughter was finally suppressed temporarily.
However, this shadow will never go away until Meng Huan and his daughter are caught!
Huo Tingchen oppresses Pan Pei every day, hoping to catch him as soon as possible.
"Honey, look at the big screen!"
Coming out of the mall, Chu Ciyou pointed at the large screen on the wall and exclaimed.
The 14-year-old boy stood sideways, looking cool and domineering. The background was the Huo's office building.
At first glance, everyone thought it was Huo Tingchen when he was a teenager.
Including Chuciyou.
"Is this when you were a kid?"
Huo Tingchen looked gloomy: "No."
"Is that Huo Tingyuan?" Chu Ciyou quickly covered his mouth and looked around.
The only one who looks so much like Huo Tingchen is Huo Tingyuan. But doesn't that child live in a nursing home?
Who cast the big screen for him?
Then, a few large characters appeared on the big screen: The third young master of the Huo family, Huo Tingyuan.
The figure slowly turned, revealing his face. His calm and undemanding gaze seemed to pass through the screen and time and space and fall on Huo Tingchen.
Huo Tingchen's scalp rarely numbs!
He immediately held Chu Ciyou in his arms, and every cell in his body was tense and ready for battle.
"husband?"
"let's go!"
Huo Tingchen protected Chu Ciyou and quickly retreated towards the car.
Then, start the car and speed away.
Chu Ciyou tightly held the seat belt with one hand and protected her pregnant belly with the other.
Huo Tingchen slowed down the car until he was sure it was safe, and asked with concern: "Did you scare you and the baby?"
"No." Chu Ciyou shook her head, "Hubby, what happened?"
"The screen just now was turning magically. It felt like someone was watching us." Huo Tingchen pursed his lips tightly, his eyes full of sinisterness.
Chu Ciyou was also frightened when he heard this, and murmured: "No wonder I was a little scared when he looked at me just now..."
