Chapter 1222: Chapter 1222: Li Beijue Realizes Chi Enen Took a Risk
The other side.
Huo Yi was anxiously waiting in a car outside the sa abandoned factory.
This ti, he used a nanny car, equipped with a computer and other equipnt, parked at the hidden exit on the left side of the abandoned factory.
“How is it? Did you see anyone?”
As soone returned, he imdiately pressed down on the person’s shoulder and asked.
The person shook their head, “No, I didn’t dare to get too close, afraid soone would spot , and Miss Chi would be in danger.”
“Where’s Butler Huo? Miss Chi hasn’t sent a signal yet?”
Huo Yi took a deep breath, feeling his head splitting from pain, “No.”
He regretted deeply not stopping Miss Chi in the morning and even letting her brainwash him into agreeing to her risky plan.
It’s been almost three hours since the incident, and there’s been no news from Miss Chi. If Master Jue finds out… Huo Yi shivered.
Just when he was burning with anxiety, the mobile phone rang.
Seeing the incoming calls display, he felt like dying—could it be that speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives!
What to do?
Master Jue is calling…
He was not just anxious now; cold sweat was pouring down his back. Holding the mobile phone, his face alternated between blue and white, quite a spectacle.
The phone kept ringing persistently a dozen tis, yet he didn’t dare not to answer. Taking a deep breath, he tried to make himself appear calm, answered the phone, “Hello, Master Jue.”
“What are you doing!” Dominant, forceful! It was Li Beijue’s voice!
“Uh, I… I’m… I’m making coffee for Miss Chi, didn’t notice the phone vibrating. Master Jue, do you need anything?” Huo Yi’s forehead continuously dripped with sweat, thinking quickly on his feet.
It was the first ti he lied to Li Beijue, feeling anxious inside, he almost bit his tongue with his teeth.
Fortunately, Li Beijue wasn’t here. Otherwise, just by looking at his reaction, he would have known he was lying.
But Li Beijue wasn’t here, so he couldn’t see, and asked in a deep voice, “Where’s Chi Enen? Why didn’t she answer the phone?”
“Um…” Huo Yi didn’t expect he’d also called Miss Chi, and for a mont, he didn’t know how to reply, “Miss… Miss Chi?”
Li Beijue’s voice carried a note of impatience, “Aren’t you making coffee for her? Let her answer the phone!” Damn it, how long has it been since he left, and that woman dares not to answer his call!
“Miss Chi…” Huo Yi was now sweating not just from the forehead, his whole body was soaked, wishing he could die, in the blink of an eye, thought of hundreds of excuses, but under Li Beijue’s powerful pressure, every reason was stuck in his throat, unable to say a word.
“What happened to Chi Enen?” Li Beijue wasn’t stupid, Huo Yi’s first hesitation might not arouse doubt, but hesitating again imdiately tightened his heart, narrowing his eyes.
Huo Yi’s face alternated through seven colors, and hard-pressed, he squeezed out a sentence, “Miss Chi is taking a bath, so it’s inconvenient to answer the phone. Maybe, when Miss Chi finishes bathing, I’ll have her call you back?”
If he hadn’t hesitated then, Li Beijue might have believed his excuse, but he hesitated too much just now, and Li Beijue was already in doubt.
He was originally a high IQ genius, once doubt arose, Huo Yi’s clumsy excuse could no longer deceive him, “I’ll ask you one more ti, what happened?”
Though the voice didn’t sound angrier, Huo Yi no longer dared to hide it, recounting everything honestly to him.
