From Now On, I will Protect You 17

“I didn’t,” Huo Mian said immediately.

Qin Chu was puzzled. He was stunned when he heard the next sentence from Huo Mian.

“But I told Yan and she dealt with it. I’m very smart, right?” Huo Mian blinked her eyes playfully and asked with a smile.

Qin Chu touched his forehead in exasperation.

“Hon, you used a spear to kill a fly. You think Lu Yan is a human trafficker, right?” Qin Chu didn’t know if he should cry or laugh.

“I just thought it’s easy for her.”

“Fine. I’ll tell Old Gao that my sister-in-law solved a big problem for him... He must treat us to a big meal sometime.”

“I want to eat crabs.” Huo Mian hadn’t eaten seafood for a long time and her mouth watered at the thought of crabs...

But Mr. Qin was very strict with this.

“Eat them when the baby is born.”

“Humph...” Huo Mian pouted.

At this moment, a knock came at the door of the president’s office.

“Come in.”

Qin Chu looked toward the entrance and saw Bella walking cautiously dressed in the company’s uniform suit.

“Sister Mian, President Qin.”

“This greeting... sounds weird...” Huo Mian chuckled.

“I think it’s better to call him President Qin in the company.” Bella looked abashed.

“Sit down. Since we’re both here, tell us about him.”

Huo Mian patted the seat next to her and invited Bella to sit.

Demurely, Bella sat down beside Huo Mian carefully.

“Don’t be nervous. Tell us.”

Huo Mian patted Bella’s hand gently.

“Sister Mian, he... looks normal but has fuzzy memories and can’t remember certain things... But Mom would remind him. He speaks little and has few words with me or Zhixin. Mostly he goes with Mom to buy groceries and cook or visit old neighbors. Everything looks normal.”

“Zhixin doesn’t know about it, right? You didn’t tell him?”

“No, Zhixin has a hot temper. I’m afraid if I told him, he’d...”

“Yeah. Well done. Don’t tell him. Just keep monitoring the situation.”

“Sister Mian, is he... a dangerous person? Will he hurt our family and Mom? Mom is very important to us and I don’t want anything to happen to her.”

Bella was smart and knew Qin Chu and Huo Mian gave the task to her because they trusted her, so she did it with extra caution.

“For now, we still don’t know his purpose... But I’m 100 percent sure that he’s not Uncle Jing.”

Huo Mian still felt fearful when she remembered the terrifying result of the DNA test.

Although she didn’t know what was happening, she was sure that guy wasn’t Uncle Jing.

Besides, that guy had lots of loopholes in his story, saying he had been moved to a foreign country mysteriously; it could only fool Zhixin and their mom since they loved Jing De very much.

Huo Mian also loved Uncle Jing, but she had senses with her.

Not to mention Jing De, even if a close friend of hers came back from death, she’d investigate the whole thing carefully.

Ever since that guy had mysteriously dodged all surveillance cameras, Huo Mian had been convinced that he had a secret agenda.

She just didn’t know what his agenda was...

“By the way, Sister Mian, I forgot to tell you something. I don’t know if it’s something unusual.” Bella remembered something.
