Chapter 118 Found you
Qiao Qin was slightly startled. The alcohol slowly flowed through her blood, making her reaction slow. In that brief moment, she even forgot to break free from the restraints immediately.
"Let go."
She spat out two words coldly, without a trace of warmth in her voice. However, An Jie Ke did not let go of her hand as she wished. He stared at Qiao Qin, his deep eyes full of persistent tenderness.
"Qiao, why are you still unwilling to accept my love? I don't care about your past. I just hope that we can face the future together and spend the rest of our lives together."
A complex emotion flashed in Qiao Qin's eyes. She moved her lips as if she wanted to say something, but swallowed it back when the words came to her lips.
Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of her sight.
The cold wind was like a blade, passing silently and tearing the silent night sky. Then, the sky quietly scattered wisps of scattered snowflakes, as if the tiny stars in the night sky were ruthlessly torn off.
Under the dim street lights, a figure stood alone, half of his face hidden in the curtain of night, flickering like a ghost walking out of the abyss.
His aura was so depressing that it was suffocating, as if his presence not only froze the air around him, but also caused the temperature to drop sharply.
"Huo...Huo Yan."
Qiao Qin's voice trembled, like a stream frozen by the cold wind, and she squeezed out the name with difficulty. Her body trembled slightly with fear, like a bird shivering in the cold wind.
Did he really find himself?
Her heart was beating wildly in her chest, like a caged animal desperate to find a way to escape.
However, in this tense atmosphere, Anjek did not seem to notice anything unusual.
When he saw Qiao Qin's frightened expression, his heart tightened, and he thought that he had scared the other party by expressing himself too eagerly.
Anjek's words were gentle and sincere: "I'm sorry, I should respect your opinion. If you are not ready yet, I can continue to wait."
He took a few steps forward, intending to get closer to Qiao Qin, and he seemed to have a lot to say. However, at this moment, a sudden force came like a violent storm, grabbing his collar fiercely and dragging him back.
A trace of doubt and displeasure flashed across Anjek's brows, and he quickly turned his head, wanting to know who was so rude.
However, just as he turned his head, a dark shadow flashed by like lightning, and then a heavy punch hit him hard in the face.
"Bang bang bang-"
The continuous sound of the blows echoed in the silent air, sounding extremely harsh.
Huo Yan had a blank expression on his face, but his brows revealed unprecedented anger and coldness. Although he said nothing, his deep eyes seemed to be burning with rage, which made people shudder.
For the past month, he had been sleepless every day. He had to deal with the heavy workload of the company while trying his best to find Qiao Qin's whereabouts. Finally, after repeated efforts, he caught a faint clue.
Huo Yan put down everything in his hands without hesitation and headed straight for Country A. However, as soon as he arrived in this land, the scene in front of him made him feel heartbroken. Qiao Qin, the woman he missed day and night, was actually pulling and tugging with a strange foreign man at this moment, as if the whole world collapsed at this moment.
His anger erupted like a volcano and could not be suppressed.
Anjek seemed so fragile in front of Huo Yan's anger, and had no power to fight back. As his fists crossed, Anjek's nosebleed splattered, staining the ground beneath his feet red. The deep red color was particularly dazzling in the cold air.
Qiao Qin stood there in a daze, her eyes filled with astonishment and confusion. She had never seen Huo Yan so out of control before, and for a moment she even forgot to react until she heard An Jie Ke's painful cry for help, then she suddenly came to her senses.
"Huo Yan! Stop!"
Qiao Qin's voice echoed in the night sky, carrying with it an anxiety and fear that was difficult to conceal.
After hearing the shout, Huo Yan's attacking movement paused for a moment, but the crazy rage in his heart was like a raging fire and never extinguished.
Anjek's face was so pale that it was almost transparent, and every breath he took seemed to require all his strength.
When Qiao Qin saw this scene, the fear in her heart was like a flood and a beast, which she could no longer suppress. She no longer cared about her own safety, and rushed forward resolutely, tightly hugging Huo Yan's arm that was about to swing out again.
Her voice was so trembling that it was almost inaudible, but full of determination and courage: "If you want to hit me, hit me."
The crazy bloodshot in Huo Yan's eyes gradually faded away with Qiao Qin's shouting, as if blown away by a breeze. He stared at An Jie Ke, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness, but in the end, he loosened his clenched fists.
Huo Yan waved his sleeves and left, his figure gradually moving away in the night. His cold back was like a sharp sword, piercing deeply into the night, appearing extremely lonely.
The cold wind whistled, carrying his low and firm voice, which undoubtedly reached Qiao Qin's ears.
"Come here."
Qiao Qin's heart trembled, she hesitated for a moment, her eyes fell on An Jie Ke who was shaking in pain on the ground. She quickly called the emergency number and requested the arrival of an ambulance, then she bit her lower lip tightly and resolutely followed Huo Yan's footsteps.
The door slammed shut behind her with a dull "click", completely isolating her from the outside world.
Inside the room, the two of them sat in silence, and the air was filled with a tense and depressing atmosphere.
Qiao Qin could clearly feel the cold aura emanating from Huo Yan. She could almost hear the sound of her own heartbeat echoing in the silent air.
This feeling of oppression made her feel a little breathless, but she straightened her back stubbornly, refusing to show any weakness in front of Huo Yan.
until—
"You really don't have anything to say to me?" That low and magnetic voice was like the abyss of the dark night, full of oppression and irresistible power.
Qiao Qin lowered her head, not daring to look up at Huo Yan, but her heart was in turmoil. Now that he had found her, what else could she say?
Silence, like an invisible sword, hung between the two of them.
Finally, Huo Yan's voice rang out again, and every word seemed to come from the bottom of his heart: "Come back with me."
This was not a question or a request, but an order from him that could not be questioned.
Qiao Qin's lips moved slightly, but in the end no sound came out.
Huo Yan's eyes gradually dimmed, and those eyes, which were originally as deep as the sea, now seemed to be covered with a layer of frost.
The corner of his mouth curled up into a sneer, that smile was full of ridicule and disdain: "That night, I had already decided to let you go free, but why did you have to be so disobedient..."
