“Um… Really? President Qin can sing?”
Amused, Lu Yan sat down next to Huo Mian.
Everyone was happy since Tang Chuan succeeded with his marriage proposal.
Qin Chu was singing the Cantonese version of King of KTV.
He sang beautifully. Only Huo Mian could make Qin Chu sing a song in public. Taking advantage of her pregnancy, she begged and pleaded until Mr. Qin finally agreed to sing for them.
Leaning her head on Huo Mian’s shoulder, Lu Yan enjoyed the happy moment.
“Does it sound good?”
“Yeah. Very good.”
“Where have you been?”
“I went out to smoke,” Lu Yan lied.
“You’d better cut down on that. It’s not good for your lungs.” Huo Mian began to nag again.
“Yeah. I know. Sis, don’t worry about me… You’re pregnant, so you must be extra careful.”
“I know; I’m very careful.”
“No. I mean you must watch out for your safety. Now that Huo Siqian was rescued by unknown people, they pose a great danger to us. Besides, the people you and my brother-in-law have offended might find ways to deal with you.”
“Don’t worry. Your brother-in-law has put lots of bodyguards around me. I don’t even have to drive now and they follow me anywhere.” Huo Mian chuckled.
“Sis, now that your identity is exposed, gradually, the people who try to catch me will want to catch you, too.”
“I know.” Huo Mian wasn’t surprised.
“Then do you know why they want to catch us?”
“They want to use us to blackmail Dad.”
“Right. Do you know why they want to blackmail Dad?”
“I suppose Dad is valuable to them. After all, he’s a genius in medicine and chemistry. He can develop and make many unusual things,” Huo Mian guessed.
“Sis, Dad has one thing…” Lu Yan lowered her voice.”
“What is it?” Seeing Lu Yan’s mysterious look, Huo Mian was curious.
“A thing that can shock the whole world… I don’t know what the thing is, but Dad has it all along. I can only guess its value by how hard the people are trying to catch us in the past years. The NSA is not really protecting Dad; in fact, they limit his freedom in the disguise of protection.”
“Why is that?” Huo Mian was astonished.
“Mom’s accident is also related to that thing. I’ll tell you the details later… Anyway, from now on, you must be extra careful because you’ll have more enemies trying to catch you each day.”
“Okay.” Huo Mian nodded in emphasis.
On the other side, An looked dispirited after he returned.
Playing dice with Tang Chuan for a while, Su Yu walked over and patted An on the shoulder.
“Mr. An, a penny for your thoughts.”
“President Su, please don’t mess with me.” Hearing Su Yu call him Mr. An, An was a bit uncomfortable.
“What’s wrong?”
“President Su, do you know how it feels to fall in love with one’s idol?” An asked suddenly.
“I’ve never done that before, so I don’t know.”
“Fine.”
“You’ve been acting weird lately… What’s wrong? Did Lu Yan reject your love?” Su Yu guessed.
“President Su, come and have a sweet potato.”
To stop Su Yu from talking, An stuffed the roast sweet potato he had bought for Lu Yan into Su Yu’s mouth.
“Hey!” Su Yu wanted to say more, but An stood up and walked away.
“He’s not right in the mind. This fellow… is indeed weird.” Su Yu was puzzled.
On the other side, Qin Chu finished the song. Huo Mian stood up and handed him a glass of wine like a devoted fan.
“Mr. Husband, thank you. The song was superb. Come and moisturize your throat with some wine.”
“You’re so attentive today. Do you want to ask a favor from me?” Qin Chu slanted a glance at Huo Mian.
“Wow! Bingo! Honey, you’re so good.” Huo Mian clapped her hands.
Qin Chu: “…”
