Chapter 34 - Her Number (1/2)

”Boss, this is the CCTV recording yesterday,” Bai Xu put the flash drive on Xi Jian's desk. He stayed up all night staring at the contents of the recording but nothing suspicious. ”Nobody approached Mr. He after you left until Miss Ling came.”

Xi Jian clenched his fist. Yesterday night, He Luo called Xi Jian to accompany him for drink.

He drank a few glasses while listening to He Luo's outpouring and his heartbroken stories, after that, he went briefly to the restroom and when he returned, he found Ling Yue sitting there.

”Get Ling's cell — no, I'll do it myself. Get all the detail about her, whom she met or what she done. I want all the name. You dismissed.”

”Yes, sir.” Bai Xu excused himself to carry on his new task. Xi Jian made a call to Ling Feng and asked Ling Yue's number.

”What for?” Ling Feng sounded suspicious.

”Someone hacked He Luo phone and called her out.”

On the other place. Ling Feng stood immediately. ”What? How?”

”I don't know, she said He Luo called, but that guy said he didn't even have her number.”

”Maybe he's too drunk to remember a thing,” he said. Ling Feng even doubted his own words. No one spoke for a moment.

Ling Feng stared at screen in front of him. It showed a large map and a lot of information about their mission this time. His subordinate wait for him further instruction. He really wanted to go to Ling Yue's side and investigate it himself, but not now. He couldn't abandone it and divert his attention.

During these seven years, there hasn't been a shred of light as to who was the culprit behind the incident at the Qi hotel that time. He forced himself to send his sister away from here, and his friend turned into someone else. This time that person used He Luo as bait. Ling Feng was not clear who was being chased by this person. Himself, Xi Jian, or his innocent sister.

”Alright I'll send it. If you find something, let me know.”

”As soon as possible.”
