Chapter 173 Heaven rewards those who persevere
An hour later, at the Huo family's old residence, the Cullinan came to a stop.
He Xu glanced at the rearview mirror and let out a cold laugh. "Mr. Huo, Miss Li's little assistant really did follow us."
Horstley's deep, calm voice was flat as he unbuckled his seatbelt with a click.
"You take care of this, I need to go find Grandma and explain things to her first."
After saying that, the man pushed open the door and got out of the car. Without turning his head, he strode quickly across the threshold and walked inside.
He Xu responded with a "yes," watched Huo Sili enter the house, and quickly unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car.
But as I walked toward the ride-hailing car behind me, a sense of foreboding inexplicably rose in my heart.
Of course, it wasn't anything else, but rather, he really wanted to know if, at this point, his efforts to salvage the situation would still be of any use.
To be honest, he had a very bad feeling about the suspense—
This time, it seems that Mr. Huo and his wife are... really going to die.
But whether that will work or not is another matter; for now, let's talk about the present.
He Xu yanked open the back door of the ride-hailing car!
Yuan Yue, who was being urged by the driver to get out of the car, turned deathly pale.
But unfortunately, the person in front of her was an older man, while outside, at least the person was more likely to be reasonable. Moreover, Yuan Yue remembered that when she was knocked down by Li Xueqian before, He Xu was also there and even argued with Li Xueqian.
So he must be a good person, right?
Yuan Yue finally came down, trembling.
Upon seeing the other driver get off, the ride-hailing driver, eager to accept the order, quickly turned around and drove away.
The old house was surrounded by various green plants, and the area was very open, but it was so open that it seemed particularly frightening at the moment.
Faced with that icy face and that tall stature, Yuan Yue felt completely overwhelmed.
Not to mention, He Xu coldly questioned, "Assistant Yuan, what are you doing here? Have you come to get reinforcements for your Miss Li?"
Yuan Yue's already pale face turned even paler, and when she saw He Xu approaching her, tears welled up in her eyes instantly.
He Xu was genuinely surprised that this person didn't need any interrogation procedures at all; he just asked one question and the person told him everything.
Upon hearing this, He Xu's face instantly turned dark.
"Your Miss Li is truly shameless. Even after all this, she still won't resign? Did she ever save your life?"
Yuan Yue pursed her lips and shook her head. He Xu thought of what Li Xueqian had done and couldn't help but want to say a few more hurtful things.
Before he could even speak, the little girl in front of him recoiled in fear, her face turning deathly pale, making him look like some kind of monster.
He Xu: "..."
He glanced at the other person again, but ultimately had no intention of continuing to argue. He got back into his car, drove to the garage, and left.
Yuan Yue wiped away her tears, thinking about what He Xu had just said, and recalling all the experiences she had had since joining the company.
This time, he finally mustered up the courage to call Li Xueqian.
In the hospital room, seeing that the caller ID showed Yuan Yue, Li Xueqian thought things had progressed well, and her anxiety eased considerably. She picked up the phone with a smile, "How is it?"
However, after a second or two, there was silence.
Li Xueqian's heart sank to the bottom. "What's going on? What did Mrs. Huo say? She...you, please say something!"
"Sister Xuexue, um, I... I want to resign!"
Li Xueqian's expression changed abruptly; her brows, which had been drooping with sadness and worry just moments before, instantly straightened up.
The volume suddenly increased—
"What did you say?! Yuan Yue, think it through. In today's environment, jobs are hard to find. If you leave me, with your height, your looks, and your education, do you think you can find anything..."
Yuan Yue shuddered again from the yelling, but this time she didn't back down. Instead, she turned down the volume and, as if remembering something, pressed the record button for the call.
She spoke slowly and deliberately, mustering her courage: "Sister Xuexue, no, Miss Li, your behavior of knowingly daring to be a traitor is shameless. You are a public figure, you should be a role model for your fans, not become such a person."
"I...I don't want to be your assistant anymore. Anyway, that's it. As for what happens next, don't worry about me. At least I've done my job right, unlike you. You're just too...too hypocritical!"
After saying that, Yuan Yue hung up the phone with trembling hands!
Inside the ward, Li Xueqian was completely stunned by the rebuke!
She was about to curse when she heard an angry shout, followed by a scream. She was so angry she felt like her lungs were going to explode!
Bang-!
She threw the phone, which hit the wall, then slid off the wall with a crack, the screen shattering into pieces.
However, at that very moment, the screen lit up again, displaying a foreign number.
When Li Xueqian saw that number, her face turned deathly pale.
Some are sad, some are happy; here at Moonlit Bay, heaven rewards those who persevere.
Jiang Qin didn't expect that just as she was about to leave the job search website, she would see a nanny's job application on the last page!
The job requirements listed inside perfectly matched her needs for hiring a nanny!
And the other party was Chinese!
In that instant, Jiang Qin felt as if a wonderful future was beckoning to her!
Without hesitation, Jiang Qin immediately dialed the other party's number.
I was still a little nervous, but to my surprise, the other party answered the phone within two seconds of me dialing it.
Then, a gentle and kind voice came from the phone, "Hello?"
