Chapter 214: A Case
Huo Jinxi said what he did. Mu Qian thought he would really make some new tricks tonight, but who knew that Huo Jinxi answered a phone call just after taking a shower, and then changed his clothes and prepared to go out.
Mu Qian came out of the study and happened to meet him. Seeing that he had changed his clothes, he thought he was really going to take her out crazy. He couldn't help but take a step back with some caution and asked, "Where are you going?"
Huo Jinxi glanced at her and replied, "I'll go back to the mansion."
I'm going to go back to the mansion at this time?
"Is something wrong?" Mu Qian was puzzled.
Huo Jinxi looked light and only replied: "What else can I do?"
As soon as these words came out, the situation became clear-
There are not many other things in the house, and Huo Bonian and Cheng Manshu have the most quarrels. I just don’t know what this time is for?
Even Huo Jinxi was alarmed at night, which shows that things should be quite serious.
Mu Qian followed Huo Jinxi all the way downstairs. He originally wanted to gossip, but Huo Jinxi didn't seem to be planning to tell her anything, so he just told her to go to bed early, and then went out.
Mu Qian was not familiar with the people in the Huo family's mansion. After a while, she thought about it and rushed to the room of the aunt who was taking care of the old house, encouraging the aunt to inquire about the situation from the sisters in the mansion.
As a result, after asking this, Mu Qian lost a little sleep at night.
The matter has something to do with Rong Qingzi.
When Huo Jinxi and Mu Qian got married, Rong Qingzi knew that she was not popular in front of the Huo family, so she only drank a cup of tea before Mu Qian went out, which was considered to have sent Mu Qian out, and it did not appear in the subsequent links. Therefore, although not necessarily anyone in the Huo family was really happy, they still maintained their decent status during the entire wedding.
But that night, Cheng Manshu happened to meet Huo Bonian and Rong Qingzi having dinner together.
The specific situation of the restaurant was unknown at that time. The servant only knew that Huo Bonian was injured when he came back. According to the content of the two quarreled after returning home, it was probably Cheng Manshu who attacked Rong Qingzi in the restaurant, and Huo Bonian was injured in order to protect Rong Qingzi.
After the two quarreled, Huo Bonian slammed the door and left, while Cheng Manshu swallowed most of the bottle of sleeping pills.
Fortunately, there are many people in the mansion, so the consequences of Cheng Manshu's swallowing of medicine should not be very serious, but the whole process can be considered a terrifying thing.
It took Mu Qian half a night to persuade her that this matter had nothing to do with her. There was no need for her to suffer from insomnia for this matter, so she gradually fell asleep.
That night, Huo Jinxi did not return to the old house.
The next morning, Mu Qian woke up early in the morning, grabbed her phone and took a look, but there was no information.
At this time, it is probably good news if there is no news.
Mu Qian did not show excessive concern, nor did she ask Huo Jinxi what she said, and she still returned to Huatang after breakfast.
Maybe because she didn't sleep well last night, she was not in good spirits this day, so when she saw Meng Linsheng in the Huatang again, she was stunned for two seconds before she realized.
Meng Linsheng smiled slightly, "I missed it after visiting your father's painting last time. I can't buy the two favorites, so I'll choose another one, just use it as a comfort."
"I thought you were here to urge me to make a decision." Mu Qian responded with a smile.
Meng Linsheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "It's not impossible to kill two birds with one stone."
Mu Qian listened but did not answer.
Meng Linsheng suddenly noticed something, "Isn't it... what's waiting for me isn't good news?"
"I'm afraid you will indeed disappoint you." Mu Qian said, "Although the conditions you offered are indeed very generous, I have other choices."
Meng Linsheng paused again, then laughed helplessly and said, "To be honest, I really never thought that what you gave me would be such an answer. I came to make an appointment with you with confidence... and prepared a meeting gift for you wishfully."
The last sentence was full of temptation. Mu Qian could hear it, but she still spoke curiously: "What kind of meeting gift?"
