It was still winter; who would open the windows at night?
Huo Mian was sure she closed the windows before bed, how could they open all of a sudden?
Did… someone come in?
At this thought, Huo Mian felt all the hairs on her body stand up . She rolled out of her bed and turned on her bedroom light . Then, she went downstairs with a flashlight .
After searching the entire house up and down, Huo Mian didn't see anything suspicious, and she didn't lose anything either…
Was it a hallucination? It couldn't be, the windows were really open .
Burdened by restlessness and insomnia, Huo Mian decided to call the security guards for the security footage outside her mother's house .
The security guard didn't agree until Huo Mian gave him 1,000 yuan .
However… the footage was completely normal .
"Miss Huo, I told you everything was fine . The security here is really tight, no one would be able to barge in like that . If they did, we would know . "
Huo Mian's heart was heavy as she returned home . When she got to the door of the townhouse, she turned around and looked up at the cameras . Then, she glanced at her bedroom… It was actually a blind angle .
No wonder the cameras didn't catch anything .
At this thought, she became more frightened than ever . She wanted to call Qin Chu, but she knew he wasn't at liberty to see her .
She couldn't call Su Yu either, because it was too late and if the reporters caught them on camera, they would have to explain themselves all over again .
In the end, Huo Mian decided to call Jiang Xiaowei, since Gao Ran was staying at Zhu Lingling's apartment and it would seem troublesome to bother them .
Plus, Jiang Xiaowei was pregnant and barely did anything with her husband that would make a guest feel uncomfortable . (TL note: hinting they would be doing extreme sports in bed)
After some thought, Huo Mian called Xiaowei, who immediately sent over a car to pick her up .
- At Jiang Xiaowei and Wei Liao's mansion -
"Mian, are you hungry? Do you want something to eat?"
Huo Mian shook her head .
"Your complexion is awful…"
"Xiaowei, I don't think it was a hallucination… I think someone came in, that person avoided security cameras . "
"Are you sure?"
"No, but… it's the only plausible explanation, the windows were indeed opened . "
"Could the wind have unhinged it?"
"No, because my mom checked all the windows before leaving, everything was locked from the inside . "
"That's weird… how could someone open a window that was locked from the inside? Mian… your mother's place isn't safe, you can't stay there anymore . "
"What should I do then?" Huo Mian was also worried .
"You can live with us for a while . "
"No, I can't, it's too much trouble for you . I can stay at a hotel," Huo Mian said .
"No, you can't live alone, it's too dangerous . No matter where you are, trouble will follow… Right now, you need to live in a pack . "
"Live in a pack…" Huo Mian felt a little awkward .
"I knew Qin Chu wouldn't ask for a divorce for no reason, it seems like you guys are both in trouble . " Jiang Xiaowei was smart; like Huo Mian, she suspected that Huo Siqian had something to do with this incident . "Just stay here, the Wei Family is very protective of me and our child, I have a 24-hour security detail . This mansion is like an iron box, haha . "
"Xiaowei… let me think about it . "
"Does Su Yu know about this?"
Huo Mian shook her head .
Jiang Xiaowei added, "He would probably worry to death if he knew about it . "
"Don't tell Qin Chu either, or else he's going to feel even more pressured than before . Anyways, don't tell anyone about it," Huo Mian said slowly .
"I won't . "
- The VIP room at the First Hospital -
"Chu, what's going on? The media has been spreading malicious news," Mrs . Qin held Qin Chu's hand and asked quietly .
"What news?"
"News of you and Mian getting divorced . . . "
"It's true, we got divorced . "
"What did you say?" Mrs . Qin was dumbstruck .
