I asked the security guard if he could help me get an appointment with Huo Liang, or Huo Liang's wife Zhao Xi.
I didn't expect the security guard to glance me up and down, looking me down and saying, "Who are you? Chairman Huo is not someone you can just meet casually."
Damn it, I’m the savior of your Chairman Huo, and his wife is my secret crush!
But there is no point in talking to this old man any more, he will never understand my sorrow.
Just when I was at a loss for words, a car horn suddenly blared from behind me. I turned and saw a Land Rover approaching. The security guard hurriedly opened the company gate with a remote control and shouted at me, "This is Manager Yu's car! Get out of the way!"
I reluctantly stepped aside, watching the Land Rover slowly drive in. But suddenly, the car stopped, the window rolled down, and a cunning man's face suddenly appeared. He laughed at me and said, "Xu Fei!"
I was stunned, and when I looked closely, I thought, "Fuck, isn't this Yu Wangbadan?" I hurried over and said in surprise, "Great job, Yu Wangba, after not seeing you for a year, you're actually driving a Land Rover!"
Yu Jie, still with that sharp, sly expression, asked me to get in his car and go to his office to reminisce about the past. I got in without hesitation, and the Land Rover quickly drove into the company. The security guard swallowed his saliva, completely stunned.
I found it a little funny, and then I remembered that since that day, Yu Jie has been the manager of this company.
Yu Jie parked his car in the garage, and I followed him to his office. It was called his office, but it was actually the one Ning Xue had used before. You could say that after Ning Xue left, Yu Jie had taken her place.
Yu Jie brought over some wine and pastries. After not seeing each other for a year, we had a lot to talk about, and we talked without regard for the time of day. Over drinks, we chatted, mostly about the past year. Yu the bastard even blamed me for not turning on my phone after I left that day. I had no news from him since, so I could only smile wryly and say I'd lost it.
We chatted until the evening, and then, in my drunken haze, I suddenly remembered that I had forgotten something important. But the drunkenness took over and I fell asleep.
When I woke up the next morning, Yu the Bastard was still asleep, lying directly on the floor, holding my right foot and talking nonsense. I could vaguely hear him say, "Ning...Xue...kiss..."
I kicked him awake. He was actually having a sex dream and fantasizing about Ning Xue. Damn it!
After I kicked him awake, Yu Wangbadan looked at me blankly, as if he hadn't recovered from his dream. I asked, "Yu Wangba, have you been in touch with Ning Xue in the past year?"
Yu the bastard just stood there without saying anything, so I went up to him and slapped him in the face, which woke him up.
"Why are you hitting me?" Yu Wangbadan covered half of his face and stared at me aggrievedly.
I ignored him and continued to ask him about Ning Xue. Yu Wangbadan frowned and said, "Ning Xue? She's just like you. After she left that day, I couldn't contact her anymore. I called her number, but it was always disconnected."
Even Yu Jie couldn't contact Ning Xue, which made things difficult.
At this time, Yu Wangbadan stood up, stretched lazily and said, "However, I think I heard Zhao Xi say some time ago that her husband Huo Liang has also been looking for Ning Xue's whereabouts. It is said that he wants to recover a pearl. Maybe Huo Liang has some clues."
Huo Liang is also looking for a bead? That bead must be the Sui Hou Ghost Bead!
If Huo Liang finds it, God knows whether he will be willing to use it to rescue Xuanxuan. I must find it before him!
I asked Yu Jie to help me make an appointment with Huo Liang. The call went through quickly, but Huo Liang seemed to be in a bad mood and very anxious. Before I could say anything, Huo Liang said, "If you have anything, please come to me another day. Right now I have to take care of my wife's affairs."
When I heard the word "wife," I thought it must be Zhao Xi. I felt a little uncomfortable. If it weren't for finding Ning Xue, I really didn't want to go find Huo Liang and Zhao Xi. But now that I heard about Zhao Xi, I still felt a little worried and asked, "What happened to Zhao Xi?"
"You are... this voice shouldn't be Yu Jie's?" Only then did Huo Liang realize that my voice was different from Yu Jie's.
I smiled and said, "Director Huo, you won't forget me, right? I'm Xu Fei."
When he heard it was me, Huo Liang said excitedly, "Xu Fei? Is it really you?"
I said yes, and there was a loud bang on the other end of the line, as if something had fallen to the ground and shattered. Then, a woman's voice came over: "Xu Fei?"
When I heard the voice, it was like a spring breeze. It sounded so familiar. It was Zhao Xi's! I said excitedly, "It's me, Xiao... Zhao Xi, you..." I originally wanted to call her "Xiao Xi", but in the end I didn't say it out loud.
Zhao Xi seemed to have heard it, but didn't say it out loud. Instead, he said to me in a sad voice: "Xu Fei... Can you come over? I... I think something happened..."
