The servant thought for a moment and said, "My wife went out once during the day, but she didn't say who she was going to see."
Huo Yunqi waved his hand after hearing this: "Okay, I understand."
Sure enough, he went out to meet someone else.
After a while, the doctor went downstairs and saw Huo Yunqi waiting in the living room, with complicated eyes: "Mr. Huo."
Dr. Li is Huo Yunqi's personal doctor. The two of them cannot be said to be close, but they are definitely not alienated. At this moment, he looked at Huo Yunqi hesitating, as if he had something to say.
"Tell me." Huo Yunqi said calmly, guessing in his mind.
Doctor Li frowned and said, "Mrs. Huo's foot is not sprained, but..."
After saying that, Dr. Li looked at the expression on Huo Yunqi's face and knew that he had already guessed the result. He sighed and continued: "Mrs. Huo did not twist her foot, but I still recommend that you take her to the hospital for a full-body examination. "
"Why?" Huo Yunqi's eyes tightened and he stared at Dr. Li, "Tell me what's going on."
Dr. Li said: "When I was checking Mrs. Huo's ankle just now, I found many bleeding spots on her left calf, which was suspected of leukemia."
After saying this in one breath, Dr. Li did not feel relieved. Instead, he felt that Huo Yunqi's eyes seemed to eat him alive. The temperature in the room was so cold that the blood in his body was freezing.
The time was stretched by Huo Yunqi's silent mood. Dr. Li felt as if a reality was so far away, and then he heard Huo Yunqi say: "Okay, I know, you should go back first."
Huo Yunqi was the only one in the empty living room. He put his fingers on the sofa and felt the coolness coming from his fingertips. He remained silent for a long time, as if he wanted to merge with the living room.
The night was very long. Huo Yunqi walked from the living room to the yard and glanced at the sky inadvertently. There were only two or three stars looming in the dark night.
In the room, Liu Yan urged Mrs. Song: "Go and see what Yun Qi is doing? I don't know if he can believe what Li Sheng said."
"You promised him so many benefits, why wouldn't he listen?" Mrs. Song comforted Liu Yan, "But in order to make the young master believe that you really sprained your foot, I'm afraid you have to rest in a hospital bed for a while."
"Would you like to inform Miss Ai and ask her to come home to take care of you?" Sister-in-law Song tentatively asked.
Liu Yan shook her head, already having her own plans in mind: "Just let Yun Qi come and accompany me."
She couldn't believe that her son could still ignore her even though she was already on bed rest!
Gao Yian poured a glass of milk and handed it to Xia Luobing: "I will watch Lin Chen, you go and rest first."
This evening was thrilling, everyone was exhausted, and Xia Luobing's eyes were clearly bruised.
"Okay." Xia Luobing did not refuse, and carried the milk cup into the bedroom where Duoduo slept. The little girl was sleeping soundly while holding a colorful caterpillar. Her pink tongue stretched and retracted, and it was interesting to see. People's hearts are as soft as a puddle of water.
No matter how bloody and unstable it is outside, it is always warm and safe inside this room.
"Duoduo, mother loves you." Xia Luobing lowered her head and kissed her daughter's soft inner cheek, her eyes glowing with maternal love, "Silly girl."
Xia Luobing helped her daughter pull up the quilt and got up to the balcony. Huo Yunqi suddenly returned to the Huo family's old house. Will something happen? "
She held the phone and hesitated for a moment to make a call. The phone only rang once, and Huo Yunqi answered the call. His voice was hoarse with fatigue: "Bingbing."
"What happened?" Xia Luobing keenly sensed that Huo Yunqi was in a bad mood and said softly, "What's wrong with you?"
She had never heard Huo Yunqi's tone like this before. It was as dark as the night outside the window, which made people feel inexplicably nervous.
"Mom sprained her foot. I can't go there tonight. Take good care of yourself." Huo Yunqi changed his tone and said, "Call me if you need anything."
Xia Luobing pursed her lips and said, "Okay, if you have anything to do, please call me."
After hanging up the phone, Xia Luobing stood on the balcony for a long time, looking at the dark night in trance, feeling strong uneasiness in her heart.
For the first time, she felt so timid.
The journey with Huo Yunqi was very hard, so I was particularly worried that something might happen.
Xia Luobing gave a wry smile, shook her head, turned around and returned to the bedroom, lying down next to her daughter gently, hugging Duoduo's small body to her chest, and her restless heart became at ease.
Duoduo, Mommy will definitely make your life happy.
Because she was worried, Xia Luobing didn't fall asleep until late at night. Her dreams were full of dark swamps. She was trapped in it and wanted to cry out for help, but she couldn't make a sound.
"Mommy, I'm so hungry." Duoduo opened her eyes and was surprised to find Xia Luobing lying next to her. She excitedly turned over to Xia Luobing and kissed her face, "Your Duoduo is so hungry! "
Xia Luobing opened her eyes drowsily and looked at her daughter who looked like an elf in front of her. Most of the annoyance caused by the nightmare disappeared immediately.
"Duoduo is hungry? Can mommy cook for Duoduo now?" Xia Luobing squeezed her daughter's soft little hand, and her body was suddenly filled with courage and strength, and she felt better now.
Huo Yunqi didn't call you all last night. I don't know if his mother's foot is serious or not...
"Dong dong dong dong -"
Xia Luobing was about to open the door when she heard Gao Yian knocking on the door outside. He stretched out his hand and said with a smile: "Good morning, is Lin Chen awake?"
"I just woke up and ate a bowl of millet porridge, and now you're asleep again." Gao Yian said with a smile, "You're recovering well."
When Xia Luobing heard this, he felt a stone hanging in his heart fell slightly, but he didn't know what the situation was like over at Nan Qi
"Uncle Yi'an, Duoduo is so hungry." Duoduo raised her little flower-like face and looked at the two people, and said helplessly, "Are you going to starve your Duoduo to death?"
Gao Yian smiled and rubbed the little guy's head, with a doting look on his face: "Okay, I'll take you to dinner right now."
Xia Luobing pretended to be worried and took a few mouthfuls, then put down the bowl and chopsticks and said with a smile, "You guys eat first, I'll go see Lin Chen."
"Bingbing, what's wrong with you?" Gao Yian had rarely seen Xia Luobing look so distracted. He looked wilted and in very bad spirits.
Xia Luobing shook his head and stood up to leave the restaurant. He knocked on Lin Chen's door and went in. When he saw the person lying on the bed, he was stunned and smiled: "I thought you were still sleeping."
Lin Chen struggled to sit up. The wound on his left arm was still painful. His usually elegant face showed the difficulty of holding back the pain.
"Don't move!" Xia Luobing stepped forward and held down Lin Chen's arm. "Be careful of the wound tearing."
"It's okay." Lin Chen leaned on the bed with Xia Luobing's help, looked at Xia Luobing with his eyes and smiled, "I know you should come to me."
The situation last night was extremely dangerous. Xia Luobing had doubts in time and had no time to ask. What's more, after bandaging the wound, he had already fainted.
"Shouldn't you give me an explanation? What on earth are you and Nan Qi doing?" Xia Luobing looked at Lin Chen and said, "Who is chasing you? Why are they chasing you?"
Lin Chen pursed his lips and looked at Xia Luobing: "How is Nan Qi?"
In fact, there is no need to ask. Now that Xia Luobing can still stand here chatting with her, Nan Qi's situation will not be very bad.
"He's very good. Answer my question first." Xia Luobing looked at Lin Chen, not giving him a chance to avoid, "What on earth are you doing?"
Good night last night, she carefully thought about what happened after Nan Qi and Lin Chen appeared, and found that there were many doubts, and all of these doubts pointed in one direction... She did not dare to continue thinking about it, fearing that the result would be her fundamental unacceptable.
Seeing the change in expression on Xia Luobing's face, Lin Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Luo Bing, I hope you won't get involved in this matter for the time being and pretend you don't know anything, okay?"
"No!" Xia Luobing's eyes flashed with sadness, "I'm a criminal police officer."
It is impossible for her to do anything that goes against professional ethics.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became dull, and Xia Luobing was so heartbroken that she glanced at Lin Chen and turned to leave, her steps heavy, as if she was worried that Lin Chen would tell some secrets!
She was worried that the secret was the same as she had guessed, so she instinctively chose to avoid it.
"Nan Qi..." Lin Chen shook his head, with bitterness and helplessness in his eyes. Why did he meet Xia Luobing
What a twist of fate.
When Xia Luobing returned to the living room, Gao Yi'an came over with coffee, sat opposite her and asked worriedly: "What's wrong with you? You look so ugly?"
In fact, he knew it even without asking him. After knowing him for so many years, he already knew that Xia Luobing had a clear personality and a clear distinction between love and hate. He would not tolerate any fraud or touch the bottom line of the law.
And obviously last night, the incident between Lin Chen and Nan Qi made her very embarrassed.
"Yi'an, I suddenly realized that I don't like wearing a police uniform anymore." Xia Luobing whispered, a little depressed, and laughed softly while holding the coffee, "Do you think I'm useless?"
Standing on both ends of the scale of friendship and law, she felt as uncomfortable as tearing out her heart.
She was confused and at a loss.
Seeing Xia Luobing like this, Gao Yian felt very distressed and said softly: "Didn't I agree yesterday that I should do everything according to my feelings, so that I won't regret it even if I make a mistake."
Xia Luobing smiled bitterly: "These things are easy to say but difficult to do."
She is a criminal police officer, and this knowledge has been deeply rooted in her bones and cannot be changed.
But Nan Qi and Lin Chen...
Seeing Xia Luobing's calm expression, Gao Yi'an knew that no matter what he said at this time, it would be useless, so he sighed and said with a smile: "Don't think about it. When you meet Nan Qi, you can ask everything clearly. Maybe they will is innocent."
Xia Luobing stroked his forehead with his fingers, smiled bitterly and said, "This is the only way we can do it now."
In order not to cause trouble to Nan Qi and Huo Yunzhan, Xia Luobing did not go to them. He only confirmed on the phone that Nan Qi's injury had been stabilized, then sat on the sofa and stopped moving, squinting his eyes like a lazy cat. .
She was awakened by a rapid ringing of the phone. The caller was Huo Yunzhan. He said that Nan Qi was missing.
Huo Yunzhan hurried to Gao Yian's residence and said anxiously: "Has he contacted you? I made many phone calls, but he didn't answer them."
Later, it was shut down directly.
Xia Luobing looked at Huo Yunzhan who was very anxious, and finally calmed down his emotions and said in a deep voice: "When did he disappear? Did he say anything strange before leaving?"
