Chapter 812 Guess What We're Talking About

"Boss, it's time to board." Secretary Ye walked over, naturally breaking the deadlock.

Huo Sinian's gaze swept over everyone, finally settling on Yun Ting, whose expression was indifferent. After looking at her for several seconds, he finally turned his gaze to Lin Tan: "You know what happens to a stumbling block."

Without waiting for Lin Tan and the others to react, he left with Secretary Ye.

Seeing the two bodyguards with bruised and swollen faces, Secretary Ye took the initiative to say, "I will replace them."

"Just bring out the two in the dark," Huo Sinian said directly.

Secretary Ye: "Okay."

Even after they left, Lin Tan's heart was not completely at ease.

She knew what Huo Sinian meant by those words.

"Don't worry about what he said." Yun Ting noticed that she was in a daze and put her hand on her shoulder. "Whether it's a stumbling block or an insurmountable mountain, no one knows until the end."

Lin Tan looked up.

Yun Ting: "Let's go."

Song Qi chimed in, "Yes, trust us."

Lin Tan said "okay".

As they walked toward the boarding gate, their voices gradually faded.

"I didn't realize that Huo Sinian's bodyguards were so capable."

"If you hadn't made that excuse to pee, you would have finished dealing with this already."

"Who knew he would come looking for trouble?"

Yun Ting didn't speak.

indeed.

None of them expected that Huo Sinian would dare to cause trouble in a place like this.

If it weren't for the small number of people coming and going, it might have attracted attention.

"Ouch, those two guys were pretty hard-hitting." Song Qi covered his face where he had been punched. Fighting two people alone was a disadvantage. "You fought them for so long, how come you didn't get hurt?"

Yun Ting: "I'm amazing."

Song Qi: "Hehe."

Amidst their discussion, Lin Tan boarded a plane bound for Haicheng.

Before the plane took off, Lin Tan sent Qin Mo a message to let him know she was safe.

Qin Mo replied with a single word: "Okay."

The flight time is not long.

It took a little over an hour to get there.

Lin Tan walked rather quickly when she got off the plane. She was afraid of running into Huo Sinian again, afraid that he would suddenly appear from some corner and attack her. She would only feel at ease once she was in the car.

"Ms. Lin Tan." A voice suddenly rang out.

Lin Tan glanced sideways.

To my right stood a woman in her early twenties, dressed in a business suit. Her long, flowing hair was styled into a bun at the back of her head, making her look very capable.

At a glance, Lin Tan recognized the man as Wen Zhi, Qin Mo's secretary.

"The car is ready, please come with me." Wen Zhi walked towards her as he spoke, took the bag from her hand, and told her the situation, "President Qin is waiting for you in the car."

Lin Tan paused.

Somewhat unexpected.

"Please." Wen Zhi remained polite and courteous throughout.

Lin Tan nodded slightly, and before leaving, she looked at Yun Ting and said, "See you later."

Yun responded with an "Mmm".

Two minutes later.

Secretary Wen led Lin Tan into the car.

Upon seeing Qin Mo sitting in the back row, Lin Tan paused, her hands hanging at her sides tightening slightly, and the words Huo Sinian had spoken at the airport involuntarily flashed through her mind.

"Ms. Lin Tan's bag." Wen Zhi handed it to Qin Mo. "I'll go take care of my work now."

Qin Mo: "Mm."

Wen Zhi then left.

Seeing that Lin Tan was still standing there in a daze, Qin Mo reached out and grabbed her wrist to pull her inside. The driver outside the door consciously closed the door, and for a moment, there were only the two of them in the car.

It's unclear whether the space was too cramped or the two were too close together.

Lin Tan felt tense all over, and even lacked the courage to look him in the eye.

"Are you alright?" Qin Mo asked.

His voice was similar to usual, deep and with a hint of winter chill; even though he tried to soften it, it still sounded devoid of emotion.

Lin Tan paused for a moment, then replied, "It's alright."

Qin Mo: "Why are you being so polite to me?"

He noticed it.

Lin Tan's hand tightened.

"Didn't we agree to avoid seeing each other unless absolutely necessary?" Lin Tan thought of Madam Yu's personality and was afraid she would scold Qin Mo like last time. "Why are you here?"

"I want to see you," Qin Mo said directly.

Lin Tan looked up.

"Don't worry, everything is arranged. My mom won't know we met." Knowing her concerns, Qin Mo explained immediately, "Secretary Wen is here to meet a client."

With just one simple sentence, Lin Tan understood.

"Lin Tan." Huo Sinian rarely called her by her name seriously.

"Um?"

"I have something I'd like to discuss with you."

"What?"

"I want to secretly send someone to follow you." After much consideration, Qin Mo finally said it. He didn't want to monitor her, but he also wanted to protect her safety. "If anything happens, I can prepare immediately."

"I also want to get news about you from Yun Ting and the others." Qin Mo completely respected Lin Tan's opinions on these matters, to the point that he was a little rigid in his actions.

Lin Tan understood him.

After only a few seconds of thought, she replied, "Okay."

After chatting for a while, Qin Mo knocked on the door to let the driver in to start the car.

The moment the driver opened the door, Huo Sinian emerged from the airport and saw Lin Tan and Qin Mo sitting inside. Before he could say anything, his phone rang.

"What's up."

I don't know what the other person said.

Huo Sinian's expression grew increasingly cold, until finally he burst into laughter.

"Okay, I understand." He hung up the phone.

"What's wrong?" Secretary Ye sensed something was amiss.

"It's nothing." Huo Sinian put away his phone and looked at the car where Lin Tan was. "It's just that some people have started to make moves for their female confidantes."

Secretary Ye realized what was happening: "President Qin?"

Huo Sinian pushed up his glasses, and after a moment of silence, he spoke: "Make a backup gift and go to the Qin family."

Secretary Ye: "Okay."

Half an hour later.

Lin Tan arrived home.

Qin Mo didn't go up with her, nor did he ask how she got the injury on her hand. He just asked her how serious it was, told her to take good care of herself, and to call him if she needed anything.

Lin Tanyi agreed to all of them.

After seeing Qin Mo off, Lin Tan arranged rooms for Yun Ting and the others.

As for Song Qi, he will still live downstairs.

"I'm going to buy something to eat." After tidying everything up, Xiao Feng planned to prepare lunch. "Sister Lin Tan, what do you like to eat? I'll go prepare it."

Lin Tan: "I'm not picky about food, anything is fine with me."

Xiao Feng: "Okay."

Xiao Feng was quick and efficient; in just thirty or forty minutes, she had prepared four dishes and a soup. She called Song Qi up to eat, and just as they sat down at the table, Lin Tan's phone received a message notification.

Worried that it was sent by Secretary Qin, she took it out to look, and saw that the sender was Huo Sinian.

The content is very simple.

It's a photo of a living room that's been renovated at a very high price.

But what stunned Lin Tan was not the environment, but the fact that the picture showed Madam Yu and Qin Mo's profile.

—[Guess what we're talking about.]

Huo Sinian sent another message.

Lin Tan tightened her grip on her phone slightly, her heart involuntarily rising.

"Sister Lin Tan, why aren't you eating?" Xiao Feng noticed that she hadn't touched her chopsticks for a long time and was staring at her phone, so she couldn't help but ask, "Is the company urging you to go over?"

"No, it's an advertisement." Lin Tan put down her phone, trying to compose herself.

No matter what Huo Sinian does, we'll find out eventually.
