My Youth Began With Him

3556 A Devil in a Mask 6

“Haha…” Huo Mian thought it was surprising and was amused at Qin Chu’s words. “Looks like someone’s really unhappy with me?”

“Who dares to be unhappy with Deputy Director Huo. She’s the head of the family now so of course she’s the most powerful. Who dares to be unhappy with her?”

“Honey, can we not be like this? Let’s have a conversation.”

Huo Mian was scared when Qin Chu was mad at her because Qin Chu wasn’t the type that would be angry without a reason. Every time he got mad at her was because she did something wrong and she felt guilty.

What she did had its consequences, and Qin Chu would worry gravely about her.

“No, Deputy Director Huo. Please take a rest and don’t mind me.”

“Honey, I’m sorry. I know I should take your feelings into consideration. Do you think it was easy to deal with those human traffickers? I had a needle in my hand and I know how to untie knots. I too want those bad guys to get what they deserve but I didn’t expect someone to want to buy me with a big sum of money midway,” Huo Mian reflected.

“You knew that many people were after you but you still chose to do it. I don’t think you’ve been listening to me nor Lu Yan. If I remember correctly, before Lu Yan left, she warned you about this.”

“Yes, she did.”

“You’re not a child right? You understood what she meant, right?”

“Yes, I understood.”

“Then why would you take such a risk?”

“Because you weren’t there so I had to do something. If they took me by force and hurt me, I was scared our baby would be hurt.” Huo Mian made an excuse.

“So you went undercover to the human trafficker’s house? You think then, our baby would be safe?” Qin Chu asked.

“Um… I didn’t know it would be this complicated.”

“There are tons of stuff you didn’t consider.”

“Honey, don’t be mad, okay? I’m here safe and sound now.”

“So you mean you’re right?”

“No. I don’t mean that. I was wrong. All this time, you have to come to clean up my mess every time. That’s why I married you. You’re the best man in the world.”

“Sure. You sure know how to flatter someone.”

“Little Bean does this all the time and it works wonders.”

“She’s my daughter. You’re not.”

“Then I want to be your daughter,” Huo Mian said shamelessly.

Qin Chu: “…”

“Deputy Director Huo, you’re very shameless…”

“Why can’t I be shameless with my own husband… Just don’t be mad at me, okay? Oh, there are two other important things I need you to help me with.”

“What?” Although Qin Chu was still mad, he would soften up any time if it was Huo Mian.

“There are some other people that were captured by the human traffickers. Can you send people to rescue them? They must be innocent and helpless, like when I was captured.”

“Okay.”

“Oh, there’s this old grandma that helped me. Her body is not very well so I plan to make some herbal medicine for her when I get back. Can you please send it to her, please? I promised her.”

“You sure made many new friends along the way.”

“Haha, of course. Your wife is good with people. I’m also pregnant now, so people will help me more as long as they are good people. Those human traffickers, however, are evil. Their daughter was so young and she was already helping her parents do evil. Honey, you have to contact the province’s police force and lock them up for many many years.”

“No need, they’re all dead.”

“Huh? Dead?” Huo Mian didn’t know that everyone was killed, but Qin Chu got the news already.
