"Yes, Deputy Commander." At this mont, a subordinate’s voice ca through, "It seems soone is following Xia Lan, and the person tailing her isn’t actively trying to hide their presence from ."
"So, upon observing, it seems like it’s soone from Huo Shizhang’s group."
"Huo Shiqian?" Ou Jun was slightly surprised.
But he quickly nodded and said, "If it’s him, that makes sense."
"You may leave now." Then, Ou Jun instructed his subordinate.
After dismissing the subordinate, Ou Jun pondered for a mont and couldn’t resist making a call to Huo Shiqian.
"Hello, is this Huo Shiqian? This is Ou Jun." As soon as the call connected, Ou Jun got straight to the point, "Are your people tailing and investigating Xia Lan? Have you found out anything? Does she know about Chuyi’s background?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Shiqian on the other end of the phone paused briefly and said, "This matter? Hmm, it has indeed been clarified."
"However, I plan to carve out ti from my ’extrely busy schedule’ filled with many coincidental events requiring my personal attention, to tell Chuyi personally."
In Ou Jun’s words, he purposely emphasized "extrely busy schedule."
Both were smart n; upon hearing this, Ou Jun imdiately knew what Huo Shiqian ant.
Indeed, Huo Shiqian had co to suspect that his sudden busyness in the past few days was due to soone tripping him up.
Coincidentally, every ti he planned to visit Chuyi, unexpected work always ca up.
Initially, he didn’t think much of it.
The first day, the second day, the third day—just today, he checked the task roster.
He realized that at this work rate, he probably wouldn’t be able to see Chuyi within a month.
So, after a brief contemplation, Huo Shiqian understood who was tripping him up.
"Ahem." Ou Jun coughed lightly and feigned ignorance, "Since Commander Huo is busy, I’ll relay the matter about Xia Lan to Chuyi then."
On the other end, Huo Shiqian was silent for a mont and said, "It’s not necessary."
"Just as the Deputy Commander noted, I am very busy. I’ll hang up now," Huo Shiqian said calmly, "When I’m not busy, let’s get in touch."
Then, he hung up the phone.
After Huo Shiqian disconnected the call, there was a montary discomfort on Ou Jun’s face as he muttered, "How is Huo Shiqian so smart? He figured it out so quickly? If he tells Chuyi about this... Who knows whom Chuyi will side with."
Just not wanting to be a brother-in-law too soon, hoping to spoil his sister a bit longer, Ou Jun felt quite lancholic.
anwhile, on the other end, after hanging up the call, Huo Shiqian’s expression was sowhat grave.
"Commander?" Just then, Xiao Wang, who had co over to deliver docunts, couldn’t help but ask his leader, "Did sothing happen?"
These days, the tasks assigned from above were mostly political docunts rather than usual training.
Many of the subordinates who returned to Beijing with Huo Shiqian couldn’t help but suspect that soone above was trying to give their boss a hard ti.
However, for anyone to challenge their boss, it would have to be one of the top figures.
If they were making moves... does that indicate that the sky of the Capital City was about to be overturned?
What was just a case of a father-in-law and brother-in-law giving a fiance a hard ti was turned into a political drama in the minds of Xiao Wang and his colleagues.
"Commander, whatever happens, we will always stand by your side!" Xiao Wang said with conviction as he observed his superior’s grave expression.
