Chapter 816: Second Entrustment
Editor. Henyee Translations
She didn’t know when her Big Brother would be able to take down An Nuo with
his sullen personality.
At the thought of the development of these two people, Murong Qiao was quite interested and wanted to watch.
In any case, she had already told him the answer just now. It all depended on whether he was enlightened or not.
After talking to Murong Chen and looking at the comments online, Murong Qiao was not too worried for the time being.
It was rare for her to rest for so long. It reminded her of the conversation she had with Jiang Weiyang before returning to the company.
She still had doubts about her Third Brother’s injury, especially after asking Jiang Weiyang. She felt that the other party’s reaction was not right.
Murong Qiao took a deep breath and picked up her phone. After finding Jiang Chi’s chat box, she clicked on it and typed.
[Send me the contact information of the law firm you found last time.]
The last time she dealt with Zheng Yue, that law firm was quite efficient, so
Murong Qiao had some impression of them.
However, when she thought of the matter she wanted to ask the other party to investigate, Murong Qiao still didn’t choose to entrust this matter to Jiang Chi.
Although the other party was one of her subordinates, thinking that her Big Brother didn’t know about this yet, Murong Qiao didn’t want to cause more trouble. Moreover, this was only her guess. She had yet to obtain any actual evidence, so there was no need to make a big fuss.
Jiang Chi didn’t ask anything and sent her the contact number without a word.
Then, Murong Qiao copied the phone number and dialed it.
The call didn’t ring long before it was answered.
“Hello, this is Zhengyi Agency. May I ask…” A young voice came from the other end.
The voice through the speaker was slightly distorted, making Murong Qiao find it familiar. However, she only frowned in confusion and got down to business first.
“Hello, I want to talk to Lawyer Xue about a commission.
As soon as she spoke, the other party fell silent and didn’t speak for a long
time.
“Hello?” When Murong Qiao heard no response from the other end, she called out in confusion.
Only then did the slightly dazed Nan Hao on the other end of the phone react and hurriedly said, “Please wait a moment. I’ll help you transfer the call.”
Nan Hao worked the phone, but his mind was filled with Murong Qiao’s voice.
Unlike the other party who didn’t recognize him, the moment Murong Qiao called and spoke, Nan Hao had already recognized the other party.
He originally wanted to say something, but when he realized that the other party had something important to say, he shut his mouth and held back a lot of words.
After waiting for a while, Murong Qiao heard another mature voice coming from the other end of the line. This time, it was Xue Jingyi who answered the call.
“Hello, what’s the matter?” The person on the other end asked formally. Nan Hao turned around and looked at the senior sitting not far away from him. He couldn’t help but gently move his chair over.
Although this action couldn’t let Nan Hao hear what his Little Sister said clearly, it gave him a sense of relaxation, as if this could allow him to get closer to the other party.
Why did she suddenly call?
Was she in trouble? Or did something happen to the company?
It was clearly only a two-minute call, but many questions flashed across Nan Hao’s heart.
However, he could only watch as Xue Jingyi kept agreeing to something and asked questions from time to time. Then, he recorded some of the situation on the white paper in front of him.
“In short, that’s what happened. I don’t have any clues at the moment. I just hope you can help me investigate the other party’s previous actions.” “Understood.” Xue Jingyi had already understood the situation. “Then I’ll look for you when this matter is resolved.”
“Thank you.” After Murong Qiao finished speaking, she didn’t forget to remind him, “Don’t alarm the other party, and don’t tell anyone else about this.” “Don’t worry about the confidentiality of our law firm.” It was naturally impossible for Xue Jingyi to have any problems in this aspect. Protecting the client’s privacy was the least they could do. After Xue Jingyi started the law firm, there had never been a mistake in this aspect all these years.
However, after hearing the other party’s guess and what had happened, Xue Jingyi already had a direction to investigate.
After the cell phone call ended, he was thinking about arranging this matter on his agenda later when he felt a gaze with an extremely strong presence looking straight at him. Moreover, the other party had no intention of hiding
it.
Therefore, he looked back and realized that Nan Hao was standing not far from him.
“Why? Isn’t the work in your hands enough for you to do?” Seeing Nan Hao looking at him like this, Xue Jingyi asked jokingly.
Nan Hao pursed his lips and really considered it seriously before answering, “That’s enough, but can I participate in this mission?”
“Do you really want to tire yourself to death?” Xue Jingyi raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard Nan Hao say this. He looked at the other party seriously, as if he was confirming if his words were true.
Actually, Nan Hao just wanted to know if something had happened to Murong Qiao.
It would naturally be better if he could help.
Seeing that Nan Hao was silent, Xue Jingyi was already used to the other party’s silent appearance.
Usually, Nan Hao’s performance in the law firm was mostly that of a serious, capable, hardworking, and down-to-earth person. He made people have a good impression of him. He could complete the work given to him seriously every time, and the results were very outstanding.
Therefore, when he heard the other party ask about the commission this time, Xue Jingyi thought for a moment and nodded in agreement.
“It’s not impossible for you to participate.” Xue Jingyi nodded in agreement. “As long as you can handle the matters on your plate first.
“You should know the client this time.” He introduced Murong Qiao to Nan Hao slightly.
It was a secret, but as long as they participated in this commission, it was still necessary to know the relevant information.
Xue Jingyi introduced her to Nan Hao. He didn’t know that Nan Hao was actually hiding his selfishness by asking him this.
Hearing Xue Jingyi’s introduction, Nan Hao immediately sat up straight and took out a few notebooks to record seriously.
“I originally wanted to start on this in the afternoon. If you want to participate, I’ll leave the investigation of the surveillance cameras to you. I’ll go find something else to do.”
It just so happened that if one more person participated, it could help him share some of the pressure.
After thinking about it, Xue Jingyi seriously assigned Nan Hao a job and didn’t patronize him.
An outstanding junior like Nan Hao was rare. Thinking of the other party’s completely reassuring style of doing things, Xue Jingyi planned to nurture him as the successor of his law firm.
“Alright, I’ll go later.” Nan Hao remembered the address of the mall Xue Jingyi had given him.
He was a little tense. This was a sign that he had entered a serious mode of doing things.
Although Xue Jingyi had only described the situation to him in a few words, Nan Hao’s mood immediately worsened when he thought of how his Little Sister had almost been stabbed.
If only he could be by her side.
An unrealistic fantasy appeared in his heart, but it was suppressed by Nan Hao
with bitterness..
