Chapter 843: An Unexpected Call
Editor: Henyee Translations
Jiang Weiyang suddenly called Huo Ya. This matter seemed a little abrupt. Even though the two of them were good friends, the unfamiliarity between them still existed.
If one had to mention the cause, it was because Jiang Weiyang had recently discovered that she was being investigated.
The person investigating was Nan Hao, who had accepted the commission some time ago.
It was self-evident how concerned Nan Hao was about his Little Sisterâs request. He ran around every day just for this matter. Moreover, heâd finally managed to meet the man who was imprisoned because he injured Murong Zhen with a knife. Moreover, Nan Hao obtained some information from the other partyâs words.
As Nan Hao worked hard, the matter seemed to be progressing more and more smoothly. Because of this, Nan Hao was even more certain that there was someone behind this. Therefore, after a few investigations, the clues vaguely pointed in the direction of Jiang Weiyang. However, there was still no conclusive evidence, so he couldnât come to a conclusion at the moment.
Looking at the thick stack of documents in his hand, Nan Hao took a deep breath and rubbed his tired eyebrows. Then, he prepared to call Murong Qiao.
However, when he called, to his surprise, the first to appear was a manâs voice.
âWhatâs the matter?â The person who answered the call was Huo Yichen, who was still taking care of Murong Qiao.
He held the phone to his ear with one hand and tapped on the laptop in front of him with the other. From time to time, he would look at Murong Qiao, who was sleeping beside him.
Perhaps it was because she was not used to the bed, although Murong Qiao could sleep when she was in the hospital previously, she couldnât sleep well. It was only today when she returned home that she immediately became sleepy.
Nan Hao found the voice familiar. Then, after recognizing Huo Yichenâs voice, he explained his background and the commission Murong Qiao had given him previously.
Huo Yichen knew about Nan Hao. Moreover, he had always heard about the rumors of their relationship.
It was unknown if the two of them were talking too loudly, but it woke Murong Qiao up. The person who was sleeping soundly on the bed just now had already opened her eyes in a daze and looked at Huo Yichen, who was still on the phone.
âYouâre awake. Someoneâs looking for you.â Seeing that she was attracted, Huo Yichen simply pressed the phone to Murong Qiaoâs ear so that she could answer the call.
However, he didnât find it tiring to maintain this posture. From the looks of it, he seemed to be enjoying it and wouldnât get tired.
âNan Hao?â Murong Qiao glanced at the callerâs name. âSend the results of the investigation to my company tomorrow. Itâs not convenient today.â
After saying that, Murong Qiao stretched and lost her memory. âDid you wash the clothes I brought back from the hospital?â
Previously, she had stayed at the Central Hospital for almost a week, so Huo Yichen had also brought her a few sets of clothes to change into. She should wash them all since sheâd returned home today.
However, her voice was not too soft, so Nan Hao heard her clearly.
âAre you injured?â Nan Hao immediately asked the question without thinking.
After saying this, he realized that it didnât seem appropriate for him to care about the other party now. âIâm sorryâŠâ
âItâs fine.â Murong Qiao didnât think too much about it.
Seeing that Nan Haoâs reaction was a little big, she seemed to chuckle. âDonât think too much. I donât care about the past anymore.â
It had been so long. If she still fussed about it, it would be too depressing.
Moreover, even if a stranger cared about her, it was not impossible to thank him.
Murong Qiaoâs words clearly entered Nan Haoâs ears, making him heave a sigh of relief.
âThen can I look for you at your company tomorrow?â Nan Hao was silent for a few seconds before he mustered his courage and asked.
This time, it was Murong Qiaoâs turn to be stunned. âSure.â
âItâs getting late. Iâm preparing to rest. If thereâs anything, tell me tomorrow.â
Realizing that the atmosphere seemed to be a little strange, Murong Qiao hung up first.
Even though the two of them didnât talk much, after obtaining permission to go to his Little Sisterâs company tomorrow, Nan Hao couldnât help but smile happily.
Looking at the phone that had already gone black and the desk that was a little messy from his work, the frustration he felt just now disappeared at this moment.
For the first time, he felt that doing these commissions and troublesome things seemed to have become quite fun.
However, after being happy, he recalled what Murong Qiao had said about the hospital and was a little puzzled.
From the situation over there, it sounded like his Little Sister was injured.
However, he was in no position to ask about the specific situation in detail. Moreover, Nan Hao didnât want to worsen their current ordinary relationship.
Just as he was immersed in his thoughts, Nan Haoâs cell phone rang not long after the call ended.
The ringtone of the phone pulled Nan Hao out of his thoughts. He came back to his senses and looked at the callerâs name. He perked up and picked up the call cleanly.
âThereâs some progress on what you want. Iâll send you the information later.â
The other party went straight to the point. As soon as he finished speaking, Nan Hao heard a notification from his computer.
He casually pulled the computer over and opened it. On the screen were the two documents sent by the other party. They were even labeled with what they were.
âAlright, thank you,â Nan Hao said politely.
The person on the other end seemed to have heard something funny. After being thanked by him like this, he was not in a hurry to hang up. âIâve never seen you so concerned about a commission.â
The person who sent the information to Nan Hao was Xue Jingyi from the law firm.
After all, although he had not focused on participating in this mission recently, he had seen how diligent Nan Hao was. Seeing that he had worked so hard, as a senior, he couldnât slack off.
âDonât tell me you like her?â Xue Jingyi chose the most likely answer.
Nan Hao was helpless. âSenior, donât tease me.â
âYoung Miss Murong is already engaged.â Nan Haoâs tone was calm as he spoke, but there was no reaction.
Hearing his cherished junior answering like this, he secretly heaved a sigh of relief that couldnât be heard by the other party on the other end of the phone.
It would be troublesome if he really liked her.
Fortunately, Nan Haoâs answer made Xue Jingyi completely relieved. He immediately changed the topic to official matters right on the heels of that.
âThis is all the information. Take a good look. There are a few key points inside. Send it to me after youâre done summarizing it. Iâll help you take a look.â Xue Jingyi reminded him again before hanging up.
After all, he was the junior he thought highly of. He might be able to pull him into the law firm in the future. Therefore, Xue Jingyi was also more concerned about Nan Hao.
In addition, he naturally had a copy of the information he had sent to Nan Hao. After hanging up, Xue Jingyi casually looked at the character information on it. When he saw Murong Qiaoâs face, he suddenly realized that she looked similar to Nan Hao.
After staring at it for a long time, a bold and very realistic guess appeared in Xue Jingyiâs heart.
Nan Hao didnât know that his senior was thinking about his matter again. After the two new documents were sent to him, he opened them and began to browse carefully, extracting the key points.
As expected of his senior. Xue Jingyiâs two documents were several times more useful than his investigation results during this period of time.
