“The plan for the Forbidden Island has already entered the final stage. Everything is proceeding smoothly,” Huo Chen said to her with a smile.
This was within Chi Jiao’s expectations. She had previously asked Na Yankun to investigate Huo Chen.
This person was very capable. He was originally the eldest son of the Huo family in Shang Jing and was supposed to inherit the family business. But instead, he got into the police academy and came to White City to be a police officer.
It was a tough and dangerous job.
Chi Jiao actually admired Huo Chen for giving up his right of inheritance to become a detective and for doing such a good job.
“I want to know, how are Zhu Limin and Chi Yan?” Chi Jiao asked suddenly. “Are they in any danger?”
Seeing the worried expression on the girl’s face, Huo Chen sighed in his heart and said slowly, “The police will definitely protect them, so don’t worry.”
Chi Jiao suddenly heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, “It’s best if they can return safely.”
This way, it would be easier for her to send them to hell personally.
How nice.
With that thought in mind, Chi Jiao’s mood became even better. The smile on her lips deepened as sweet dimples rippled on either side of her cheeks.
Huo Chen looked at the smile on her face, and his eyes wavered. His heartbeat inexplicably accelerated.
He had previously learned how Zhu Limin and Chi Yan treated Chi Jiao.
It was rare that this girl would still care about their safety.
What a kind girl.
“I’ll give you my private number. In the future, if there are any troublesome matters that require my help, you can give me a call.” As Huo Chen spoke, he took out his phone and dialed on the keypad. “Tell me your phone number, and I’ll call you.”
Chi Jiao didn’t think too much about it and gave him her phone number.
After Huo Chen called, she saved his number.
He saved Chi Jiao’s phone number as well.
“It’s getting late, Officer Huo. I should head back,” Chi Jiao said as she stood up.
“I’ll send you back.” Huo Chen stood up as well.
…
There was only a month left until the end of term. Chi Jiao was worried that she would disturb Quan Jue’s studies, so she endured not contacting him for a day.
Quan Jue seemed to be very busy as well, as he did not contact her either.
When she got home that night, Chi Jiao took a fragrant petal bath. After changing into her pajamas, she sent Quan Jue a WeChat message.
It was a very cute little bunny emoji greeting him.
After sending the message, Chi Jiao thought that Quan Jue would take a while to reply. Just as she was about to put her phone down, her phone rang with a video call notification from WeChat.
Chi Jiao immediately answered it.
Immediately after, she almost choked on her own saliva when she saw Quan Jue.
“Cough, cough, cough…” Rapid coughs escaped from her lips, but she couldn’t bear to look away as she stared straight at him.
Quan Jue looked like he had just taken a shower as well. He was only wearing a pair of long, black cotton trousers, which were a little low at the waist and faintly revealed his merman lines.
His upper body was naked, and his perfectly firm abs were very eye-catching. The lines of his muscles were filled with unruly perfection, and there was no excess fat.
Initially, just by looking at Quan Jue’s beautiful and exquisite face, which was prettier than a girl’s, coupled with his fair, flawless skin, one would feel that he was a little weak. But when they looked at his powerful figure, how could he be weak in any way?
