t," she said softly, "otherwise you'll have a headache tomorrow. Be good, listen to me."Qi Ce held her hand and kissed her on the back of her hand, "Okay, I know. I'll go back to sleep right away."The...Cao Fang drove the car to Huo's underground garage.

The direct elevator door opened, Huo Mingzheng strode out with long legs, his steps steady and calm. A black windbreaker hung loosely on his arm, his entire face was cold and solemn.

The security guard passed by and respectfully called out to Mr. Huo, the man just hummed in response and brushed past him.

Baoxin was uneasy. What's wrong with Mr. Huo

It's different from usual, but it's hard to say exactly how.

Could it be that my attitude just now wasn't respectful enough

Huo Ming got into the car, loosened his tie, and shrouded himself in darkness. Even his breath was listless and cold.

After a while, he asked, "What's happening over there with the old man"

"Caofang replied while driving, "I heard things have been better for you these past few days. The people sent out are taking it slow, it seems like they're almost ready to give up on finding Miss Fu."

Huo Mingzheng's lips curled into a cold, mocking smile.

You don't understand him.

He was taking his time, but that didn't mean he would give up on finding Fu Yan. In his eyes, Fu Yan was always a 'nuisance'. It was only because I had finally managed to 'let go' of Fu Yan that he dared not risk me noticing anything unusual.

Cao Fang nodded, "I'll have someone keep a close eye on the old man's movements."

"Well, what about Li Qin"

Cao Fang nodded. "You guessed it right, Miss Li called the Huo family mansion every day, and the old master answered each time. Our people couldn't hear the content of the calls, but we can be sure that Miss Li was reporting on your situation."

A glint flashed in Huo Mingzheng's eyes. He rolled down the car window halfway and cast his gaze toward a black sedan parked on the roadside not far away. That car had only appeared recently, staying there from morning till night.

Watching his every move.

He twitched the corner of his lips without a sound, his eyes gleaming with cold light.

The car window slowly rose, and he said in a cold voice: "Tell the people I sent out to act low-key. I need to find Fu Yan unharmed. I want her and the child to be safe."

The car drove into the corner. There was an ordinary black sedan parked by the roadside. Huo Mingzheng got out of the Bentley and opened the door to that car before getting in.

The car windows are covered with privacy film, so you can't see if there are people in the back seat from the outside.

Cao Fang took a glance, then drove away, while the other car also drove in another direction.

An hour later, the car stopped in an ordinary residential area.

He opened the door and just as he pulled out his key, Qin Heng’s phone call came through. “You haven’t come back yet”

"I'm at the rouge counter."

On the phone, Qin Heng was taken aback for a moment before reacting. He knew it wasn't Fu Yan who had returned. He pondered for a while and tentatively asked, "The house that Fu Yan rented"

Huo Mingzheng didn't speak. He closed the door with his backhand. Even without turning on the lights, his night vision was excellent, and being familiar with the place allowed him to move as freely as during the day.

Are you still not asleep

Qin Heng frowned.

After Fu Yan left, Huo Mingzheng was restless and unstable that night, but he still had people keep a close eye on Old Master Huo. He had calculated that Old Master Huo would pull in Li Qin, so he went with the flow and, when Li Qin arrived at the manor, sent Cao Fang to "seek help" from Li Qin.

Also, Qin Heng was made to cooperate in acting out a scene.

Originally, Qin Heng thought that Li Qin might really be able to help Huo Mingzheng once again and help him return to a normal life. However, after the event, Li Qin's methods proved useless.

Ho Mingzheng pretended to be helpful and cooperated with her help in order to make the old master feel 'at ease'.

Thus, the threat posed by such makeup becomes relatively smaller.

Before he found Fu Yan and brought her into his territory to protect her, all threats were fatal to him.

He doesn't allow any missteps from Yan and the child.

For so many days, he was supported by this belief alone and didn't go mad.

But Qin Heng knew that if he couldn't find Fu Yan again, Huo Mingzheng wouldn't be able to hold on for much longer.aw Fu Yan, she immediately stood up from her desk."I'm sorry to bother you, Mr. Fu is in the office. Shall I let him know you're here""Thanks." Fu Yan smiled slightly.Sun the secretary dialed an inter...
