Chapter 1219: Chapter 1233: I Want to Be With You (9)
There was no time to say anything else before the call was cut off.
These days, people have a penchant for hanging up without a word!
Now, everyone’s back, should we still check?
Can’t you just go ask by yourself?
You’re killing yourself with anxiety!
Qin Shaojin secretly cursed, thought for a moment, and made a call to arrange for a few people to investigate Qiao Qiao’s affairs.
Thinking again, could it be that Second Brother doesn’t want to investigate himself because he’s scared? Afraid that the results might not be what he hopes?
Human nature, indeed!
Ahem, but you can’t say these things in front of Second Brother’s face, or else he’d probably kill you, and it’d be a nasty death.
———— Yunqi Academy ————
Qin Shaonan hung up the phone, sat for a while, and felt that Qin Shaojin was completely unreliable, so he called Huo Jinnan, "Help me check on Qiao Qiao."
Huo Jinnan, "Okay."
"If——"
Qin Shaonan paused and didn’t continue.
Huo Jinnan’s voice was low and rich, "I’ll do it after my vision recovers. Xiang Feng and Wu Long’s matters are almost settled, at most three months."
Qin Shaonan took a drag from his cigarette.
Huo Jinnan rarely said an extra word, "If I don’t give you a result——"
Qin Shaonan’s voice grew a bit obscure, "I know."
"Alright, that’s it."
Huo Jinnan hung up the phone, twirling the phone around a few times with his long fingers.
Qin Huan sat beside him, watching, eyes fixed on him.
Huo Jinnan, "Did you know Qiao Qiao was pregnant?"
Qin Huan shook his head, "Disappeared for half a year, said she went abroad for a holiday."
Huo Jinnan guessed that Qiao Qiao hadn’t mentioned anything to Qin Huan, so he didn’t ask further.
Qin Huan looked at Huo Jinnan, why suddenly ask about Qiao Qiao?
Could it be that the call just now was related to Qiao Qiao?
Recalling the words he said, could it be Second Brother who called?
Three months, result...
Reflecting on some key words, staring at Huo Jinnan, "My Second Brother?"
Huo Jinnan acknowledged with a "hmm", saying no more.
Qin Huan didn’t ask either, could it be that Second Brother was having Huo Jinnan investigate Qiao Qiao?
Thinking about having mentioned Qiao Qiao in front of Second Brother, without getting scolded or beaten, maybe it’s worth trying again next time?
Thinking about it, she called Qiao Qiao, "Are you doing well over there?"
Qiao Qiao, "Thank you, Aunt, I’m doing great."
Qin Huan, "Qiao Qiao, want to go out this weekend?"
Qiao Qiao thought of that scene at the airport, "Better not, if something happens to you, our family’s husband won’t let me off."
Qin Huan glanced at Huo Jinnan, coughed gently, "Then come over and play this weekend."
Qiao Qiao, "Okay."
She thought about it, Qin Shaonan should be coming too, right? That would be the best.
Qin Huan hung up the phone, looked at Huo Jinnan, "What happened at the airport last time?"
Huo Jinnan’s face turned to Qin Huan, "He was questioned. If such a thing happens in Hong Kong again, he’ll be held accountable."
Qin Huan bit her lip, what a hassle.
It must be that recently in Hong Kong there’s a strict investigation, right? She searched on her phone and indeed saw many people mentioning it, whether at the train station, bus terminal, or airport.
She looked at Huo Jinnan, "Then we should go out less often recently."
Huo Jinnan acknowledged with a "hmm", "Stay indoors more."
Qin Huan thought of Qiao Qiao, a bit worried, living at the Qin Family is considered safe, but to and from work—
No idea how she commutes.
Thinking of this, she called Qiao Qiao again, "Qiao Qiao, I haven’t used your car yet, it’s been parked there all this time. I’ll give you the key one of these days."
Qiao Qiao thought of her old, beat-up car, "Got it."
