"What?" Pei Nian was stunned.
What kind of person do you like?
What is he being sarcastic about?
"Isn't the person you like Jiang Mianmian?" Huo Jingnan frowned. "Why are you hiding it..."
"..."
Pei Nian then remembered that she had said those words in a fit of pique, but she didn't expect him to take them seriously.
"Pei Nian," Huo Jingnan said softly, head down, "Do you really like girls like Mianmian?"
"I……"
Have you ever thought about liking men?
Pei Nian's heart pounded several times, and the moment their eyes met, it felt as if fireworks were exploding before her eyes...

After get off work, Huo Junyu went to Jiang Mianmian's office.
There were several men in black in the office, all of whom were A-Yi's trusted henchmen. Jiang Mianmian greeted A-Yi, and without a word, Uncle A-Yi gave her all of them to use.
So the investigation went relatively smoothly.
Jiang Mianmian looked at the documents on the table with a solemn expression. Huo Junyu walked around behind her and gently placed a hand on her shoulder.

Everything seemed normal when she went in, but when she came out, her complexion was very off, and she moved much more slowly, as if... as if she had fallen down."
"That's strange." Jiang Mianmian looked at Huo Junyu, who also looked puzzled. "Is anyone living in that old house?"
The man in black said, "We've investigated, and there's no one inside."
"She went into an empty room, stayed there for a while, and then came out?" Jiang Mianmian couldn't understand it at all. "What does that mean?"
The group remained silent, unable to answer.
“By the way, Miss, Young Master,” the man in black added, “we’ve also found out who attacked Miss Pei Nian. It’s someone from a small gang. That gang isn’t very powerful; they just steal and do petty theft. Even people in the underworld look down on them.”
