Upon hearing this, Scarlett said, "How many peaks did you rush?"
Xia Chuyi: ...
Scarlett’s pronunciation almost made Xia Chuyi burst into laughter.
"Wendy, you use her English na—Wendy, Wendy Jiang."
"OK, Wendy!" As soon as the English na was ntioned, Scarlett rembered it imdiately.
Xia Chuyi nodded on the other end of the phone, thought for a mont, and then said, "If you don’t have Wendy’s contact information, you can also help tell my classmates..."
"Ask them to help find out if Wendy has a boyfriend."
Hearing Xia Chuyi’s question, Scarlett imdiately beca excited and said, "Don’t worry, my dear Xia, I’ve got this covered!"
Xia Chuyi couldn’t help shaking her head.
Looks like the interest in gossip transcends nationalities.
"Thank you, Scarlett," said Xia Chuyi. "When you receive any news there, let know during our routine contact next week, I really appreciate it."
"OK, no problem!" Scarlett said.
Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi smiled slightly and said, "Bye-bye."
Then she hung up the phone.
The phone she held had just been hung up.
The man behind her picked her up and said, "From now on, no staying up late."
Since the call was made, Xia Chuyi grinned at Huo Shiqian and said, "Okay, no more staying up late."
A few days later, it was ti for Xia Chuyi and Scarlett’s routine contact.
"Hello, Scarlett?" Xia Chuyi answered the phone and spoke to the person on the other end.
"Dear Xia!" Scarlett said enthusiastically upon answering, "I’ve completed the task you assigned !"
"That Wendy, she has a boyfriend, she already has one!" The first thing Scarlett ntioned was naturally this piece of gossip.
"I heard her boyfriend is also a man from Z Country, who chased her all the way to the United States from Z Country!"
"Oh, Chuyi, it turns out you Z Country folks can also be so passionate..."
As she was speaking halfway, the call seed to cut off suddenly.
"Hello? Hello? Scarlett?" Xia Chuyi spoke into the phone.
However, all that remained on the other end was a busy tone.
Maybe there was a problem with the line? Xia Chuyi thought.
Not long after Xia Chuyi hung up the phone, it rang again.
"Hello, Scarlett?" Xia Chuyi asked.
But the voice on the other end was not Scarlett’s.
"Chuyi, if soone cos to your house later, rember, don’t say anything." The caller was Huo Shiqian.
"What?" Xia Chuyi was utterly confused upon hearing Huo Shiqian’s words.
However, Huo Shiqian calmly said, "In any case, if soone cos, don’t speak."
"I’ll handle everything."
After speaking, Huo Shiqian hung up the phone.
Xia Chuyi stared at the receiver in her hand, with a puzzled expression.
Why on earth did Huo Shiqian say that?
Just as Xia Chuyi was pondering this.
Bao Mansion—Xia Chuyi and Huo Shiqian’s ho—welcod an uninvited "visitor."
After the guard let the person in, he said to Xia Chuyi, "Sister-in-law, these are people from National Security."
"National Security?" Xia Chuyi was extrely surprised.
National Security, also known as Holand Security.
This departnt generally handles external affairs; why would they co to see her?
After the guard introduced the person, the visiting National Security officer showed Xia Chuyi their credentials.
Judging by the credentials, the visitor seed to be a senior official in that departnt.
