Huh?
“When Captain Jiang was on a mission back then, he received a call. Not long after, that group of robbers appeared,” said Tan Qingshu.
When she heard this, Jiang Tingxu’s eyes turned cold.
“You mean my father leaked the secret?” she demanded.
Her tone of voice was colder than the look in her eyes.
How could it not be?
Her biological father was deemed a suspect!
“No, that’s not what I meant. Don’t misunderstand. That call was answered very normally,” he replied.
Since that was the case, then there was no issue.
The person who managed to contact Jiang Guoyu and the others at that time could not be someone unrelated. It must have been an insider!
“Although the call was answered as per normal, who knew who the person on the other end of the line was? Rather, what did that person say?” asked Jiang Tingxu.
The smile on Tan Qingshu’s face grew wider and wider.
“You’re really smart. As expected of Captain Jiang’s daughter,” he commented.
Jiang Tingxu felt a little uncomfortable being praised out of the blue.
“Thank you for the compliment, but let’s get down to business now,” she said.
He could save the compliments for another time!
“Second Young Master Tan also suspected that there was something wrong with that phone call?”
“What do you think?”
Although nothing sounded unusual, the phone call was the most suspicious.
The few who knew about it understood it in their hearts, but some things were not for speaking about casually.
“What happened to Captain Jiang in the past has long been classified as private and confidential. It’s very difficult to know more details,” said Tan Qingshu.
Even Guo Group’s ranking could not be checked, so it went without saying.
Jiang Tingxu fell silent, her brows unconsciously furrowed.
Tan Qingshu looked at the time and immediately stood up.
“It’s about time, Miss Jiang. At the beginning of next month, the Qiao family will hold a birthday banquet in Jin City,” he said.
The Qiao family?
This was undoubtedly Tan Qingshu’s intentional reminder.
“Alright, I’ll go,” replied Jiang Tingxu.
Come to think of it, Tan Qingshu was not just mentioning it in passing. There must be some deeper meaning behind it.
Since that was so, she would just make another trip to Jin City.
As the two of them left, they bumped into Monkey, who was pouring tea for the guests.
“Qingshu and the little lady, are you done talking?” he called out.
“Yes, I’m rushing for the plane,” replied Tan Qingshu. “Let’s meet again next time.”
Monkey smiled and nodded.
“Alright!”
Jiang Tingxu also bid her goodbye.
“I’ll be leaving first too,” she said.
Monkey sighed.
“We just met and you are already leaving!”
Tan Qingshu looked at his buddy in amusement.
“You want to keep her for dinner? I’m afraid that won’t do. Look outside over there,” he told Monkey.
It wasn’t just Monkey who looked over. Jiang Tingxu also turned her vision toward the door and saw someone walking over.
“Who is it?” Monkey didn’t know.
Tan Qingshu pointed at Jiang Tingxu.
“Her man,” he replied.
Monkey was extremely surprised.
“This young lady is in love?” he asked.
In love?
That’s not it!
“Ahem, that’s my husband!” she told him.
Oh, she is married!
When Mo Boyuan walked closer, he was acutely aware of Monkey’s gaze. He nodded and took the initiative to greet him.
Then, he called out softly, “Brother Tan.”
Tan Qingshu acknowledged his greeting and told him, “Since you’re here, I won’t send her off.”
Mo Boyuan nodded in agreement.
“Okay.”
After Tan Qingshu left, the couple did so as well.
In the car, Jiang Tingxu asked him curiously, “Why are you here?”
Mo Boyuan looked at her and replied, “I was worried. I came over after receiving news from the bodyguards.”
Ever since the explosion, as long as his wife left the house, Mo Boyuan would not be at ease.
“Didn’t you say that Mo Shi was very busy recently?” asked Jiang Tingxu. “I am good. Mother let me take all the bodyguards away!”
