Secretary Jiang throws out the divorce papers, and President Huo loses control with red eyes.

Chapter 131 Qinqin, do you think contacting Grandma will solve this problem?

Jiang Qin spoke in a low voice, in fact, her voice was rather soft because she was emotionally numb.

However, the advantage lies in the fact that no one usually comes to the emergency staircase in the shopping mall. In addition, everyone present is watching the scene with tension and no one is speaking. The only sounds around them are the sounds of Huo Sili and the bodyguard who had first stopped Huo Sili fighting hand to hand.

Or to be more precise, the only sound was the dull thud of physical contact that followed when Horst made his move and his bodyguard parried.

Therefore, everyone present heard Jiang Qin's words very clearly.

Then, the bodyguard who was blocking the attack was stunned.

The bodyguards surrounding Jiang Qin also had very complicated expressions.

Someone spoke up, "Second Young Madam, you don't need to..."

They're not stupid. Just now upstairs, the second young mistress clearly wanted to avoid the second young master, which is why she didn't even take the most convenient elevator and instead took the emergency staircase that no one ever uses.

But at this moment, the second young mistress took the initiative to say that she wanted to go with the second young master, which meant that she wanted to return to the Yunhai Hua Mansion that the bodyguard sent by the second young master had mentioned!

This contradiction makes the truth all too obvious—

The second young mistress was clearly afraid of implicating them, which is why she took the initiative to speak to the second young master!

The old lady specially approved these bodyguards from the security team to protect the second young mistress. They were all tall and strong. How could they fail in their mission and instead have the second young mistress, whom they were supposed to protect, protect them instead?

Not to mention that they were members of the security team that the old lady had spent a lot of money and effort to train.

Just speaking for the sake of it, as an adult man, taking money to do something, and then making the employer bear the risk after receiving the money, that's just inhuman.

Jiang Qin had no idea that her words would not cause the bodyguards around her to separate and allow her to leave the encirclement.

This, on the contrary, aroused the fighting spirit of the bodyguards around him.

“That’s right, Second Young Madam. Don’t change your mind because of us. We are following the instructions of the Old Madam. If you are taken away by the Second Young Master right under our noses, we will also be in deep trouble.”

Put yourself in others' shoes and repay kindness with gratitude.

Jiang Qin's words just now made the bodyguards, who were from the security team, even more grateful.

Therefore, we cannot back down at this time.

As he listened to what the bodyguards opposite Jiang Qin were saying, a cold smile appeared on Huo Sili's thin lips below the steps.

However, the smile on his lips didn't last long, and suddenly, a bell rang.

It was a special ringtone. Hollis stopped his fighting movements, his face stiffening.

Then, taking advantage of his height being the tallest person present, he stepped forward, his deep gaze easily passing over the bodyguards in front of Jiang Qin and landing on Jiang Qin, who was surrounded inside.

"Qinqin, do you think contacting Grandma now will solve this problem?"

Upon smelling that familiar, light woody scent, Jiang Qin's hand holding the phone trembled involuntarily.

Upon hearing Huo Sili's words, Jiang Qin pursed her lips. What did he say? The question.

this problem.

Therefore, his thinking has not changed; he still thinks the same way.

He still didn't want her to get pregnant with his child, and he didn't even treat the child as a person, but as a problem, a nuisance.

Jiang Qin pursed her lips.

To reiterate, in her view, there's only one reason why she wouldn't welcome her wife getting pregnant: if there's genuine financial pressure in their lives.

Apart from that, she really felt there shouldn't be any other reason.

After all, some men are in their early twenties and think it's too early to have children, preferring to enjoy their time as a couple first. So, after their wives became pregnant unexpectedly, they had them have an abortion.

In her view, the men described above are inherently bad, selfish, or simply extremely stupid.

As for being stupid, to put it bluntly, a man who can do the kind of things mentioned above is simply evil.

Because stupidity is bad in itself at times, but it is disguised as "dumbness" so that others may mistakenly think it is a problem of intelligence. However, when it comes to marriage and romantic relationships, it is a different matter.

Is stupidity really just a matter of intelligence, or is it intentional or deliberate?

To be honest, she didn't believe it, because she had heard of more than one similar heinous case during her childhood.

Moreover, it happened right around her—at the time, the police investigation was causing quite a stir in the urban village community.

For young lovers, the man deliberately removes the condom midway through intercourse for his own comfort.

The woman was unaware of the situation and therefore did not take the birth control pill in time.

Finally, my period didn't come on time, and the community health center found out I was pregnant.

When she told her boyfriend, he immediately turned on her and spread rumors, saying that she was immoral.

However, in reality, the man just wanted to change his "girlfriend." Yes, in the later news, this scumbag revealed that he didn't actually treat the woman as his girlfriend at all, but rather as a free prostitute.

He assumed the woman had pursued him, and thought, "Why not sleep with her for free? It's free anyway."

As for why the man treated the woman that way, she found it all laughable when she recalled it.

That scumbag treated that girl that way simply because she was better than him in every way.

Previously, when we went out to eat, I even insisted on paying the bill. Such behavior hurt the other person's ridiculous sense of self-esteem.

So, this scumbag decided to take revenge.

The overwhelming rumors among acquaintances ultimately led the girl to depression, and she ended her life in her rented room.

But the story doesn't end there—several years after the girl's death, she still saw comments online saying that the boy's parents often berated the girl, saying that she was the one who ruined their son.

Their son became "famous" online, to the point that he couldn't find a job in Kyoto and had to return to his small hometown to develop his career.

And it was probably because of these disgusting cases that she knew about more than one during her upbringing.

Later, when she entered junior high school, she was taken care of by a very kind young female teacher who knew about her family situation and was very worried that she did not have enough knowledge about physiology.

He always reminded her of physiological knowledge and warned her to be wary of bad men who seduce girls.

Therefore, although Jiang Qin had not personally experienced miscarriage, she was even more aware after those events that she was definitely less knowledgeable about female physiology than girls from normal families.

So later, she worked part-time to save money and bought a mobile phone and SIM card so she could access the internet.

The first things they learn are physiological knowledge about girls' growth process and knowledge about the relationship between the sexes.

Because she understood from a very young age that playing the "beauty" card alone would lead to a dead end.

The prerequisite for not being harmed is knowing under what circumstances one can be harmed.

After all, prevention is key; without prevention, how can there be any protection?

She learned the truth about the girl's miscarriage at that time.

It was then that she truly understood what a miscarriage was—a bloody, terrifying, painful, and physically and mentally devastating experience for a young woman.

From that moment on, she felt that a man who could make a girl have an abortion was...

Ideally, stay as far away from her as possible—ideally, get as far away as possible from her.

A myriad of thoughts flashed by in an instant.

Returning to the present moment, Jiang Qin changed her mind, and so it was.

Knowing that going with him would risk her miscarriage, why did she still go with him?

Just because he couldn't stand seeing the bodyguard being beaten by him and he couldn't stand his attitude towards the matter?

But in reality, there are quite a few things, behaviors, and people in the world that she disapproves of.

Does being unable to stand something mean you have to compromise?

Actually, that's not the case. If you can't stand it, then don't watch it. In dangerous situations, preserving yourself is the best solution.

Reason took over her mind, and Jiang Qin forced herself to calm down.

Yes, if he can so easily tell her to have an abortion, then why should she be afraid of him?

After all, as an adult, the person who should be most responsible for you in this life is yourself, not someone else.

In other words, an adult is hurt not because someone else hurts you, but because you gave someone the opportunity to hurt you. You were fulfilling their desire to hurt others, and you backed down when you should have expressed anger.

Just like she just now, she clearly felt from the bottom of her heart that a married adult man should know about the risks of childbirth and miscarriage, and she clearly knew that if the other party did not know, she would not have chosen to marry him at all.

But when emotions got the better of her, she still fell for Horstley's trick.

Fortunately, we managed to stop the loss in time.

It was at this moment that Jiang Qin suddenly recalled the realization she had made when she was taking a walk in the Sky Garden one day and unexpectedly saw a seed sprouting—the sprouting of a seed and the cracking of the soil signify aggression, which is one of the innate manifestations of vitality.

When a person lacks the ability to attack for a long time, they may choose to back down when they should be protecting their rights.

They will gradually become timid and cowardly, and eventually become depressed and perish.

She doesn't want to perish; she wants to live well, not seeking great wealth or status, but only a simple and ordinary life.

Is that not enough? If not, why? Was she born with an extra heart to atone for a sin, or what?

That doesn't make sense.

Huo Sili didn't answer the old lady's call, and Jiang Qin continued to send messages to the old lady.

Unexpectedly, the message was sent out just a few minutes ago.

Suddenly, footsteps sounded again at the entrance of the stairs.

Was it one of Horst's bodyguards? Or someone else?

Suddenly, a deep, aged yet remarkably authoritative male voice rang out—

"Well, you brat, you really think you can get away with this while I'm not around!"

Upon seeing the person approaching, Jiang Qin's eyes lit up. Huo Sili turned around, his thin lips slightly pursed, and said, "Grandpa."

"Hey—you brat, don't call me that yet. Whether you have me as your grandpa or not depends on your behavior!"

Huo Wu raised his hand to stop him, not giving Huo Sili a proper look, while looking kindly at Jiang Qin and speaking forcefully to the bodyguards surrounding her.

"You escort the second young mistress back to the villa. I, the old man, will personally guard this place. If he dares to stop me, I'll slap him!"
