Chapter 1221 The Returnee's Notes 295

While she was on the landline receiving a call, she also received a text message on her cell phone, asking her to attend a small meeting that afternoon.

Upon hearing the gatekeeper say that the man's surname was Ye, Xie Ning couldn't recall knowing anyone like that, so she asked the gatekeeper to call the man to answer the phone.

Although she didn't remember it, she patiently didn't hang up immediately.

"Thank you, Master."

The old gatekeeper was sizing up the man who had been lingering at the gate for a while when the man started talking about some kind of master. The old man was so startled that he perked up his ears, trying to hear what they were saying.

After all, as far as he knew, Xie Ning was still a young woman, and she certainly didn't deserve the title of "master."

This title is somewhat feudal and superstitious.

Upon hearing this form of address, Xie Ning's face darkened. "Mr. Ye, do we know each other?"

Instead of using the title "Master," she directly revealed her surname as Xie, something she never did when commissioning clients.

Apart from......

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I was too hasty."

The man's expression changed slightly, and he realized he had misspoke, but he quickly understood and came up with a solution.

"Ms. Xie, I'm so sorry, I've run into some trouble lately and I'd like to ask for your help. I have a relative who works at the police station, so..."

If this person is referring to her previous encounter with a cunning individual who came to her door, and how she exposed some of her methods while treating the wounds of the police officers, then that is indeed possible.

The phone call was filled with flattery, but Xie Ning remained unmoved. Even though the man had found a seemingly perfect excuse, her camera was still pointed at him.

The man in the guard booth seemed to hear a buzzing sound, but he thought it was just a fly buzzing and didn't pay any attention to it.

Little did he know that his face had been seen by Xie Ning.

This man was about 1.7 meters tall, thin, and although he was wearing a suit, it looked loose and didn't fill out properly. He also had a darker complexion.

Xie Ning noticed the hand holding the phone. Given his direction and posture, it would be more convenient for him to hold the phone with his right hand, and most people are used to using their right hand, but he was using his left.

It's obvious that he subconsciously uses his left hand when he's doing something.

The man is very likely left-handed.

Having roughly guessed the man's identity, Xie Ning did not alert him. Instead, she reassured him, saying that she didn't have time and could recommend another colleague if he was really in a hurry.

If he's not in a hurry, he can wait a couple more days for her.

The man frowned. "Miss Xie, I only trust your abilities. I can wait two days."

Seemingly feeling that he had agreed too quickly and seemed too relaxed, the man added, "But it will only last two days at most. You know, I really can't handle such abnormal things."

Rest assured, the price will absolutely not be lower!

Xie Ning seemed to be persuaded and laughed a few times. She then arranged a specific time with the man and hung up the phone.

Seeing the man leave from the drone footage, Xie Ning immediately called the security guard. "Uncle Tong, that man seems a bit mentally unstable. If you encounter him again, be careful and just agree with what he says."

The gatekeeper slapped his thigh and exclaimed, "I knew it! How did you, a young lady, turn into an old Taoist priest from a TV series? It turns out that the man just now was not normal. Don't worry, I will stay far away from him next time I see him."

He doesn't want to talk to idiots.
