Chapter 360 - Good Morning (I) (1/2)

”Lu Jin.”

”...You sound relieved. What happened?” The other side had a deep and cold voice, but there was a hint of confusion in them. It was subtle.

Guan Gao Huan who was the closest to this man knew him very well. So he noticed it. The same thing to the man, he knew of his friend's tone that he noticed that something was amiss.

But Gao Huan chose not to say anything. ”Nothing.”

”Is everything all right there?”

The annoying matters were thrown at the back of Guan Gao Huan's mind as the comfort of his friend settled his thoughts.

”Did you just call me for that?” He tried to tease the stern man.

”...No. I am coming back. ”

”...”

There was a bit of silence. After a while, Guan Gao Huan asked.

”You are done with the business in the south?”

”Yes.”

”It's earlier than scheduled. Did he want to send you here?”

”Yes and no. I finished early, and there are things there that caught my attention.”

Guan Gao Huan turned serious. For his friend to come here, it must be serious. ”What is it?”

”Someone is messing up with the files.”

Guan Gao Huan stiffened. His tone turned colder.

”Which one?”

Lu Jin stayed silent for a moment. Then in a deep tone, he said, ”Old ones.”

The fingers that were tapping the armest clenched.

'Old ones'

There were old files that were about him.

”...Is it about mine?”

”No. It's a different matter.”

Gao Huan seemed a bit relieved.

There was another bout of silence.

”Did you tell him?” Gao Huan's finger unclenched and resumed tapping.

”...No, I didn't. He can't know before we are sure.”

'We?' Guan Hao Huan suddenly knew why he called.

This guy wanted him to investigate until he arrived here.

Guan Gao Huan thought of it for a moment, calculating. He would be busy with preparations because the plan with Xiong De to deal with the Head Master of the Xiong family was turning out of his favor.
