Chapter 80
He could feel the fear in her eyes as she looked at him.
Although he didn't know what she was afraid of.
But he knew she wanted him to stay.
He laid down beside her and looked at her, saying softly, "Then I'll lie here with you. I won't go anywhere. Don't be afraid, just get some sleep."
Wen Qing listened to his words and slowly closed her eyes.
Even though it had been quite a while, she still felt a lingering fear.
Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
He reached out, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and put his arms around her.
Before long, Wen Qing's breathing became even.
She fell asleep.
At that moment, a knock came from the door.
Huo Tingshen let go of Wen Qing slowly and got off the bed quietly. He walked to the door and opened it.
The person that stood outside the door was Ye Wanluo.
She looked up at Huo Tingshen with tears in her eyes.
"Tingshen, is Miss Wen alright?"
Her voice was slightly hoarse.
From the sound of her voice, he could tell that she had been crying downstairs for a while.
Huo Tingshen turned around and looked at Wen Qing who was sleeping on the bed. He closed the door and walked out.
"She's asleep."
"Believe me, I really didn't do anything just now." Ye Wanluo reached out and grabbed Huo Tingshen's arm.
"I'm the same as you. I like Miss Wen very much, just now ??" What happened just now? " As she spoke, her expression was aggrieved. She raised her right hand to her eyes.
Huo Tingshen said, "Ye Wanluo, don't cry."
"Do you believe me?" She let go and looked at him with teary eyes: "Tingshen, do you trust me?"
Huo Tingshen nodded. "I believe you."
He patted Ye Wanluo's shoulder. "It's alright now. You should go rest early."
"Miss Wen will really be fine, right?"
Huo Tingshen answered seriously: "Yes, I'm here, I won't let anything happen to her."
However, his words only made Ye Wanluo feel even worse.
This was Huo Tingshen, whom she had never seen before.
He actually spoke of his promise to another woman in front of her so firmly.
Ye Wanluo's heart felt as if a corner of it had been torn off, and it was extremely painful.
After she left, Huo Tingshen returned to his room and embraced Wen Qing until daybreak.
Wen Qing slightly opened her eyes as the sunlight shone into the room.
She moved her body and found that Huo Tingshen was still sleeping with her in his arms.
She looked at his beautiful sleeping face and pursed her lips.
At this time, Huo Tingshen also opened his eyes and looked at her: "Does it look good?"
"What did you say?"
"Am I, good-looking?" His charming lips curled up as he looked at her.
Wen Qing frowned. She had a look of disdain on her face as she tried to get out of bed.
However, he pulled her back into his embrace. "You want to destroy the bridge after crossing the river?"
Wen Qing was speechless. "I want to get up."
He held her tightly. "How do you feel now? Are you feeling better? "
She nodded.
"What happened last night? Has anything unpleasant happened between you and Ye Wanluo? "
That horrible image from last night rushed into his mind once more.
She frowned, obviously resisting the memory.
"No, nothing."
"Then why are you screaming so fearfully?"
Wen Qing avoided his gaze for a moment. "It's my problem."
She finished. She struggled to get up.
However, Huo Tingshen wasn't someone who was easy to deal with. He rolled over and pressed her down.
He looked at her with a domineering expression, "Must there be a secret between us?"
"In this world, everyone has their own secrets." She said calmly, "If people are like a piece of white paper in front of each other, what's the difference between looking at yourself in the mirror?"
Huo Tingshen lowered his head and sucked on her lips, gaining an advantage.
"That makes sense."
Wen Qing frowned. "Aiya, you ??"
"This is my reward for protecting you last night," he smiled evilly and sat up, "Compared to before, you have improved a lot."
"What progress?" she wondered.
"The last time you opened your eyes and saw me on the bed, weren't you shocked? I am very satisfied with your calm performance this time. "
Wen Qing felt a little shy.
Must these words be said?
When the two of them went downstairs, Huo Tingchi and Ye Wanluo were already having breakfast in the living room.
Seeing them come down, Ye Wanluo stood up and hurried to the staircase. "Miss Wen, are you alright?"
Wen Qing nodded. "Sorry Miss Ye, did I scare you last night?"
"I'm still okay, it's just that your appearance makes me very worried."
"I'm fine. When I saw you in the bath with your eyes closed, I thought ??" She looked at Ye Wanluo. Some things should not be said carelessly.
Ye Wanluo tilted her head and smiled. "You can't be thinking that I'm dead, right?"
Wen Qing blushed slightly. "I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose."
Ye Wanluo reached out to hold her hand, "Oh my god, I'm fine, don't apologize to me. I was too tired and fell asleep, so I fell asleep. I didn't expect it to scare you, the one who should apologize is me. I'm glad that you're fine."
Huo Tingchi, who was at the dining table, said, "Don't stand, let's have breakfast together."
Wen Qing followed Ye Wanluo to di
er.
Huo Tingshen followed behind them.
Others might believe Wen Qing's words, but he didn't.
As far as he was concerned, Wen Qing's fear was bone-deep fear. It couldn't possibly be so simple.
Now, he was slightly vexed, because he realized that he actually knew nothing about Wen Qing's past.
For the next week, Wen Qing was calm and happy at the company.
Su Pei was dismissed.
Because Chen Zinuo had used her previously, she had restrained herself a lot and didn't even dare to talk to her anymore.
And what made her feel the most at ease was that she didn't have to deliver meals at noon.
One had to know that the process of going upstairs was a great test of a person's detection abilities.
It was obvious that she wasn't up to the task of sneaking around.
At noon, she was eating in the dining room, and Yang Qing had come down.
After she got her lunch, she sat down across from Wen Qing.
Wen Qing smiled at her. "Supervisor Yang."
Yang Qing said amiably, "Just call me Sister Yang from now on. It's so awkward being called the supervisor."
"But other people call it that too. I can't do anything special."
"But you're not anyone else, you're my lucky star. Without you, where would Director Yang have come from?"
As the two of them were chatting, Chen Zinuo walked over after receiving her lunch.
She said timidly, "Director Yang, Qing, can I sit here?"
Wen Qing lowered her gaze as she ate, pretending not to hear anything.
Seeing this, Yang Qing said, "Chen Zinuo, I'm currently discussing something with Little Wen. Why don't you go eat next door?"
Chen Zinuo's face turned red as if she had been slapped. "Oh, alright."
As she was leaving behind Yang Qing, she turned around to look at Wen Qing, her face full of injustice.
