Chapter 3083 - At that Moment, I Thought I Was Dead 3
“No, I haven’t.”
“How can you be so sure of it?” Rick gave him one of his rare smiles.
“I’ve loved her for so many years that we have formed a special bond; I know in my guts that Mian is alive.”
“Okay. I don’t understand the special bond between husband and wife; after all, I’m not married yet.”
“You will understand it in the future.” Qin Chu smiled.
“You look better now. I thought you’d still be depressed when you find we had no information about Huo Mian…”
“I would’ve been in the past but not now. I’m not only Huo Mian’s husband; I’m also Pudding and Little Bean’s father.”
Then, he picked up his cellphone and pulled out photos of his kids’ smiling faces.
Looking at the photos, he remembered his happy family life with Mian and the kids.
Qin Chu’s eyes showed a gentleness Rick had rarely seen before.
“After Huo Siqian disappeared, Ian seems to be looking for him, too. He betrayed Ian, by the looks of it.”
“Someone like him would never truly obey Ian,” Qin Chu put down his cellphone and said to Rick.
“I thought he was close with Ian’s family since he had a history with Nalo…”
“It is exactly why Huo Siqian hates Ian and his brother so much.”
“Hou Siqian never plays by rules. My men have been investigating but can’t find anything. Lu Yan is searching for them, and I’m sure the professor will do it, too.”
“Yeah. We’ll eventually find some clues. Mian is smart and I’m sure she will find a way to give us a clue.” Qin Chu had great confidence in Huo Mian.
– Meanwhile, on the deserted island –
Aside from the imprisonment, Huo Siqian was good to Huo Mian. Other than not being able to leave the island, she could have everything.
Seeing Huo Mian didn’t like to eat the things growing on the island, he ordered his men to deliver some rare fruits, meats, and even seafood such as lobsters and abalones.
But no matter what he did, Huo Mian had never given him a smile.
Despite Huo Mian’s insults to him each day, Huo Siqian still felt happy.
“Main, since you don’t like the dresses that I gave to you, I have new ones made for you. I had high-quality silk shipped from Suzhou and made some long dresses of your size. Considering you’re pregnant and will need more room around the belly in the future, I had the tailor make some alterations. Do you like them?”
Carefully, Huo Siqian showed some pale-colored dresses to Huo Mian, wanting to please her.
“Huo Siqian, don’t waste your time and energy. No matter what you do, I’ll never like you,” Huo Mian said coldly.
“It doesn’t matter that you don’t like me; I’ve never forced you to like me. It’s enough that I like you.”
“Don’t you think your wishful thinking is lame and tiring?” Huo Mian glared at him.
“Not at all. I enjoy it. I’ll put the dresses here and you can try them on when you have time. I washed and sterilized them since I know you are a doctor and like everything clean.” Huo Siqian smiled.
Huo Mian turned her head and ignored him.
He put the dresses beside Huo Mian and turned to leave.
He looked back at the door. “Mian, we’ll have fresh fish soup for supper, okay? Do you want rice or steamed bread to go with it?”
In this scene, he looked like a husband who was doing his best to take care of his pregnant wife. Yet, Huo Mian suddenly found it really weird and creepy.
