Chapter 90: An Inexplicable Phone Call
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Mu Anan pressed down the screen of her phone and said to Dr. Gu and Liangliang, who were walking in front, “You guys go out first. I need to go to the toilet.”
Liangliang didn’t think much of it. He didn’t even look back, waved his hand, and followed the other people out the door.
Dr. Gu looked at Mu Anan hesitantly.
Mu Anan had already walked into the bathroom with her phone.
The call went through. Mu Anan dismantled the voice changer and did not speak.
Zong Zhengyu was silent.
After Mu Anan dismantled the voice changer, Zong Zhengyu had no intention of speaking.
After hesitating for a few seconds, Mu Anan took the initiative to ask, “Seventh Master?”
“Yes.”
Silence again.
Mu Anan blinked, “Seventh Master, what’s the matter?”
“Where are you?”
“At Chen Hua’s house. She has to help her mother with something. We’ll go shopping later.” Mu Anan blinked at the mirror and spoke calmly.
She had wanted to say that she was going shopping, but she was worried that Seventh Master would ask about the exact location of the mall. It would be terrible if she was exposed.
It was safest to say that she had stayed at Chen Hua’s house.
“You’re not coming back tonight?” Seventh Master asked again.
“I have to work the night shift tonight and can only go back tomorrow morning.”Mu Anan replied.
After the conversation ended, both sides fell silent again.
Mu Anan felt that it was very strange. In addition, she was already doing something bad and felt guilty. She had a very bad feeling about it.
Mu Anan asked carefully, “Seventh Master, is there anything else? Chen Hua reached me.”
“Nothing.”
Zong Zhengyu gave a firm answer. Before Mu Anan could respond, the phone was disconnected.
Listening to the busy tone, Mu Anan was confused.
She even took her phone and looked at the call log. It showed that she did have a conversation with Seventh Master for so many minutes.
Mu Anan even recalled their conversation carefully.
There was no useful information at all.
He didn’t even need to make this call.
This was not Zong Zheng Yu’s style.
Seventh Master had always been simple and straightforward. He had very little patience. He would say something straight away and not bother to say a word about it.
On several occasions, Mu Anan thought that her lack of patience was influenced by Seventh Master.
But she was originally impatient by nature.
Mu Anan opened the door casually. Without even looking, she knew that it was Dr. Gu.
She said, “Seventh Elder gave me a call for no reason. He even asked me where
I was and if I was going back tonight. How could I have the feeling…”
Mu Anan paused and then found a way to describe it, “The feeling of a wife being caught cheating by her husband.”
As she said, Dr. Gu smiled.
“I’m quite flustered now, “Mu Anan said honestly.
“So we don’t go on the cruise and go back to the Yuyuan Estate?”
“That’s impossible.”
Mu Anan answered directly, then waved her hand, “Forget it. No matter how much I think about it, I won’t get an answer and it’s a waste of time. Let’s settle the matter tonight first. Even if Seventh Master really knows about it, we’ll figure out a solution at that point.”
After that, Mu Anan hid the voice changer on her fake Adam’s apple and put it back on her neck.
She finished up and left with Dr. Gu to focus on this evening’s events.
“Is the drone ready?” Mu Anan asked.
Dr. Gu said, “Well, it’s ready. Be in touch anytime tonight.”
The two of them left the hotel as they spoke.
Liangliang and Ayi were waiting outside the door.
The other members of the Green Bird Team had already left in advance and headed to the cruise ship in Jiang Sea in advance. They were deployed according to the arrangements set during the meeting.
When the car arrived, Ayi stepped forward and opened the backseat door for Mu Anan and Liangliang.
Mu Anan entered naturally, while Liangliang was a little restrained.
He had never experienced such a scene before. He asked carefully, “Shall I drive?”
Ayi didn’t respond. He kept a cool face and glanced at the back seat, indicating for Liangliang to sit in it.
“Liangliang, come in, “Mu Anan reminded him.
Liangliang hesitated for a few seconds before finally sitting in.
Ayi closed the door and returned to the driver’s seat. The car slowly drove off.
Liangliang approached Mu Anan nervously, “Qi, isn’t that gentleman coming in?”
“He’s up to something.”
“Qi, your wealthy friend is a big deal, isn’t he? Your ostentation and posture…” Liangliang scanned the situation inside the car.
He was in the car business, so he knew the value of a car with just one look.
This car was no ordinary luxury car.
Even the glass was bulletproof.
Mu Anan was sending a message to Dr. Gu, asking him to find out more about Seventh Master’s current condition.
When he heard Liangliang’s words, she curled his lips and joked, “What’s the matter? Are you scared? Not being my buddy anymore?”
“That’s not necessary, “Liangliang waved his hand.
“How about I introduce you to other rich men?”
“Forget it. I like rich ladies.”
The two of them joked and laughed.
After that, they chatted casually.
The car arrived at the entrance of a building near Jiang Sea.
When Mu Anan got out of the car and took a glance, she saw Jiang Qin sitting in a cafe inside the building. Because she was sitting against a window seat, Mu Anan saw her after a few glances.
“Ayi, take Liangliang down to park the car first.” Mu Anan said. Then, she got off the car and stepped into the building.
When Mu Anan got out of the car, Jiang Qin had already noticed it.
When Mu Anan arrived at the cafe, she saw Jiang Qin looking at the door.
As a haughty young lady, she naturally did not wave a warm greeting at Mu Anan but simply glanced at her calmly.
Mu Anan’s lips curled up. She pulled down her baseball uniform, lowered her hat, and walked toward Jiang Qin.
She walked with a slight arrogance and casualness in her steps and a large stride.
She had learned it from Huo Xian.
Huo Xian’s frivolous and roguish aura was very strong, and Mu Anan was just learning from him.
When she reached Jiang Qin’s seat on the floor, Mu Anan leaned down, opened her legs, and raised her chin, “My goddess, long time no see. You’ve become prettier again.”
Jiang Qin glanced at Mu Anan and didn’t say anything. Instead, she asked the waiter to come over and order, “Is there anything you want to drink?”
“Water.”
Mu Anan said as she placed her elbows on her knees and asked, “My goddess, did you specially ask me to come here to confess to me?”
Jiang Qin frowned, “Don’t be immodest, I have something to say to you.”
“Ok, I’m listening.”
After Mu Anan finished, Jiang Qin fell silent again.
Mu Anan also waited patiently.
After about a minute, Jiang Qin said, “The text message asking you out wasn’t from me.”
“I know.”
Mu Anan’s phone vibrated as soon as she answered.
It was Zong Qi’s identity mobile phone with a message from Dr. Gu.
Mu Anan was equipped with a special mobile phone for each of her identities. But today, she was using Zong Qi’s identity, so if Dr. Gu and the others had anything to do, they would send it to this mobile phone.
“You know about it?” Jiang Qin didn’t notice Mu Anan’s actions. She was surprised, “You know I didn’t send that message, yet you still came?”
Mu Anan had already opened the screen of her phone.
Dr. Gu said, “I just sent someone to secretly check on Seventh Master’s current position..”
