At this time, Huo Shaoting's cell phone rang, and it was naturally Li Nai calling. He answered, his face still looked bad, but his voice remained calm.
I don't know what Li Nai said on the other end of the phone. Huo Shaoting only whispered back: "Tell her yourself." Then he took the phone off his ear and handed it to the person next to him: "You yourself Tell your sister."
Qiqi reached out and took it from his hand, put the phone to her ear, and said in a very low voice, "Sister."
Huo Shaoting glanced at her and kept suppressing the arrogance in his heart, closing his eyes to calm down.
Qiqi heard Lina's voice on the phone, and she was naturally very anxious: "Qiqi! Where have you been! You didn't even say hello. Do you know how anxious your family was when you didn't come back at night? Dad almost wanted to kill you. You are so ignorant when you call the police station!"
Qiqi also closed her eyes and pursed her lips as she listened to Li Nai's reproach. After a while, she could only apologize: "Sister, I'm sorry, I just forgot to say hello to you."
Although Lina is not very close to this sister, she is somewhat worried about her.
Hearing her weak apology on the phone, she couldn't blame her anymore: "Okay, let's forget it this time. This kind of thing must not happen again next time."
She added: "You didn't return your call today, and we searched all your classmates. Fortunately, Shao Ting found you not long after. If something happened to you, what would dad do?"
Qiqi only admitted her mistake: "Well, I'm sorry, sister."
"Okay, you go back and get some rest early."
After the phone call between Qiqi and Li Nai ended, Huo Shaoting on the side also opened his eyes. The moment he opened his eyes, Qiqi handed him the phone: "I'm sorry, Brother Shao Ting."
She still admitted her mistake.
Huo Shaoting's eyes fell on her, and he returned to his usual calm state. He didn't speak, but just reached out and took the black mobile phone from her hand.
There was a silence in the car. Qiqi sat next to him, knowing that he was still angry, so she stopped talking after apologizing.
After driving for several hours, the car finally arrived at Tan Palace at three o'clock in the morning.
The servant was anxious to death. This was the second time something like this happened. When he came to Qiqi and wanted to say something, Huo Shaoting said coldly to the servant: "Take her up and wash her whole body." After saying that, he went up. He walked downstairs and didn't stop downstairs.
The servant glanced at Qiqi, who was covered in dust, and didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he just took her upstairs.
Qiqi was actually exhausted. She had been cleaning up in Jiangping Village all day, and now she returned to Tan Gong at three in the morning.
After she got to her room upstairs, she sank into the fish tank in the bathroom.
The servant brought her clothes and said while taking them: "Mr. Huo was really worried about you. When he came back and found out that you were missing, he didn't even catch his breath, so he went out to look for you and made countless phone calls."
Qiqi soaked in the bathtub and made no sound.
The servant added: "It's no wonder Mr. Huo is so anxious. Miss Li Nai once had a kidnapping incident. It was a big fuss at that time. You'd better not go out alone. Who knows if there are criminals targeting you."
When Qiqi heard the servant's words, she immediately raised her face and looked towards the servant.
"Sister...was she kidnapped?"
Qiqi really didn't know about this matter. When Li Nai was in college, she was still in junior high school. At that age, she didn't pay much attention to the affairs of the Li family.
"Yes, the criminal has been staring at Miss Li for a long time. It took Mr. Huo a long time to rescue Miss Li from the criminal."
When Qiqi heard this, she felt a little scared for no reason. She hugged herself tightly in the bathtub.
The servant didn't say much, put down her clothes and left.
Qiqi suddenly asked: "Who is Huo Yun?"
The servant paused and looked at Qiqi with a dull expression.
Qiqi also looked at the servant, looking at his expression in confusion.
Under her confused gaze, the servant asked: "Why...you suddenly asked about this..."
"Who is Huo Yun?"
Qiqi still asked the servant.
The servant thought for a few seconds and replied to her very quickly: "Huo Yun... was Mr. Huo's sister, but she died."
Qiqi was stunned. She sat in the bathtub and didn't react for a while.
The servant didn't dare to say anything more to her and quickly left the bathroom.
After the servant left, Qiqi was still sinking in the water.
In fact, on the way back, she guessed that Huo Yun should be from the Huo family. After all, her surname was Huo, but she wasn't sure. She didn't expect that this person would be Huo Shaoting's sister.
He actually has a sister. Qiqi has never heard of it. Even when she went to Huo's house, she never heard anyone mention it. This name made Qiqi feel like there was some secret hidden in it.
Is Huo Yun's death related to Xu Yunhe? The idea suddenly came to her mind.
Huo Shaoting was sitting in the study, puffing away smoke. The study was pitch dark, with only scarlet fire spots and blue smoke visible. His face was cold in the darkness, and he had smoked no one knows how many cigarettes. Finally, he reached into the ashtray and pressed off the cigarette butt on his hand.
Qiqi went to bed after taking a bath, and her mind kept thinking about today's scene.
Her scene still frightened her, and her hands tightly hugged the quilt in her arms.
There were footsteps moving outside. Qiqi looked toward the door. She heard Huo Shaoting ask: "Is anyone asleep?"
Then, the servant replied to him: "Mr. Huo, Miss Qiqi is asleep."
She didn't expect that it was already four o'clock and he wasn't even asleep.
Qiqi held her breath and did not dare to speak, and the footsteps at the door naturally disappeared.
Later, just as Qiqi was sleeping in a daze, there was a sudden movement downstairs. This noise directly woke Qiqi up. She opened her eyes and looked around in confusion. She heard that the servants downstairs were quite nervous. Panicked voice: "Sir, do you want to call Miss Qiqi?"
The sound was mixed with the chaotic sound of cars.
Then, it was Huo Shaoting's voice again: "No, you wake her up in the morning."
Huo Shaoting's voice also had a rare sense of tension.
Qiqi took advantage of the moonlight and glanced at the clock on the wall. With just one glance, she suddenly sat up from the bed.
It's only six o'clock now. What happened? Where is Brother Shao Ting going?
After Qiqi got off the bed, she immediately rushed out of the room in her nightgown. When she stood upstairs and looked downstairs, she only saw the back of Huo Shaoting hurriedly getting into the car.
Then, Qiqi's cell phone started ringing in the room.
Qiqi quickly turned around and went to the room to get her mobile phone.
The caller was Mrs. Li, and Qiqi quickly answered the call.
As soon as she put the phone to her ear, Mrs. Li's trembling voice came from the phone: "Qiqi, your sister is dying——"
The next second, there was the sound of Qiqi's phone falling to the ground.
