Chapter 67 I Want You



Xu Nuo was in a very good mood, showing off her little tiger teeth. She had just finished talking to Ye Mao when her satellite phone rang again.

Night Owl glanced at the satellite phone in Xu Nuo's hand: "It's definitely not for me!"

Xu Nuo thought for a moment, then answered the phone: "Hello?"

"Nono, why didn't you call to let me know you're safe?" The gentle voice was easily recognizable as Nan Qing'an's.

"Mr. Nan! How did you manage to get through to me on this phone?"

Xu Nuo looked at Ye Mao. He had just spoken to Ye Linyan on the phone when Nan Qing'an called. The timing was too perfect!

I'm worried about you! I'll have to find a way to contact you!

Nan Qing'an replied, downplaying the main point.

"I've already transferred the money to Ye Zhen. Now it's up to President Nan to handle it!" Xu Nuo didn't dwell on the phone call issue and changed the subject.

"That's easy to say, but shouldn't we raise the stakes a bit?"

Nan Qing'an's words immediately made Xu Nuo smile:

"Why does Mr. Nan want to raise the stakes? Didn't we already reach an agreement? Or does Mr. Nan think what I offered wasn't enough?"

"Not enough! I've changed my mind!"

Nan Qing'an's voice didn't sound like a joke.

"What else would Mr. Nan like?"

Xu Nuo's voice also turned cold.

"you!"

Nan Qing'an, as if afraid that Xu Nuo hadn't heard clearly, repeated himself:

I want you!

Xu Nuo paused for a moment, and after confirming that she hadn't misheard, replied:

"What does Mr. Nan mean by this? Are you going to go back on what we agreed on?"

"I told you this a long time ago, you just didn't take it seriously!"

Nan Qing'an changed his usual gentle voice.

Xu Nuo recalled Nan Qing'an's words from the clouds:

'I've taken a liking to Xu Nuo!'

'I'm telling the truth!'

.................................................................

After a long silence, Nan Qing'an continued:

How much longer do you need to consider this?

"President Nan, your terms are quite unexpected. I need to think about them carefully!"

Xu Nuo is not currently in Yuncheng, so he can only try to stabilize Nanqing first.

"Think it over carefully~ I'll come visit you in a few days! Be careful, Nono!"

After Nan Qing'an finished speaking, his voice became gentle again:

"I'm hanging up now. Take care, Nuonuo!"

After hanging up the phone, Nan Qing'an stared at his phone for a long time with a gloomy expression.

..............................................................

Xu Nuo hung up the phone, her mind still replaying Nan Qing'an's words. She glanced at her phone, then turned to Night Owl and asked:

What do you think is the chance that this phone number has been tapped?

"zero!"

Night Owl made a zero gesture with his hand and asked, "What's wrong?"

Xu Nuo's eyes darkened: "That means he tapped on my brother's phone!"

The satellite phone Xu Nuo had was given to him by Ye Mao this morning. He had only called Ye Zhen once, and Nan Qing'an was able to call back within two minutes of him hanging up on Ye Linyan, which meant that Nan Qing'an definitely knew about his conversation with Ye Linyan.

Thinking of this, Xu Nuo suddenly understood what she had been struggling with!

Nan Qing'an had always been gentle and mild-mannered in front of him, and he had never heard him speak so forcefully before. It must have been his conversation with Ye Linyan that provoked him.

Is what Nan Qing'an said really true?

Does she really like me?

Xu Nuo was somewhat skeptical, but after a moment's thought, this was the only explanation that made sense!

Regardless of whether it was true or not, Xu Nuo felt uneasy thinking that Ye Linyan's phone call had been eavesdropped on by Nan Qing'an, and immediately dialed Shao Rui's number again.

"RuiRui, can you check my brother's phone for me? Can you find out if someone is eavesdropping on his phone?"

"Cannot be found!"

Shao Rui replied.

"What do you mean?" Xu Nuo felt even more uneasy after hearing Shao Rui's answer.

"I tried it before you came out!"

"What about the one I'm using now? Is it possible that it could be spied on?"

Shao Rui was silent for a moment before saying, "I need some time."

"Okay, I'll wait for you!"

.................................................................

Xu Nuo hung up the phone and stood there.

Seeing his serious expression, Night Owl asked, "What happened?"

Xu Nuo glanced at the mountain in front of her, tossed the satellite phone in her hand to the person behind her, and led Night Cat forward a little before repeating her conversation with Nan Qing'an to Night Cat!

"Silly cat, what do you think Nan Qing'an means by this?"

After finishing his lesson, Xu Nuo asked a question.

The night owl chuckled a few times: "You already called me a silly cat, and you're still asking me! Aren't you even sillier!"

"Sometimes, only fools can see things that others can't!"

Xu Nuo spoke as he walked slowly.

"Yes. I told you last time that Nan Qing'an seems to really like you! Didn't you not believe me?"

How did you figure that out?!

Xu Nuo countered with a question.

"His eyes! Look at his eyes! They're practically glued to you!"

As Night Owl spoke, he took off his sunglasses and gestured with his hands.

"I didn't see that!"

Xu Nuo glanced at him.

"Who else can you see in your eyes besides Lin Yan!"

The night owl brought back sunglasses, his tone full of disdain!

"I just can't understand why he suddenly took a liking to me?" Xu Nuo found a shady spot and sat down.

"Who knows!"

Night Owl shrugged.

While waiting for Shao Rui's reply, Xu Nuo recalled the few times she had met Nan Qing'an.

Has he seen you before?

Night Owl recalled that he first saw Nan Qing'an in Fenglingdu, and with Nan Qing'an's post on WeChat Moments, he looked at Xu Nuo and asked.

When the night owl mentioned it, Xu Nuo thought back for a moment and realized that Nan Qing'an knew she liked lilies and that she loved spicy food.

However, I had met Nan Qing'an before, but only a few times at social occasions, and we didn't have any deep contact.

Lilies? Xu Nuo searched her memory carefully and suddenly remembered that she had planted many lilies in the sanatorium!

A sanatorium! I was blind back then, but I really did meet someone there...

However, in Xu Nuo's memory, that person's voice was somewhat similar to Nan Qing'an's, and their name wasn't Nan Qing'an either; what was it again...?

Xu Nuo thought about it carefully and realized that her name seemed to be 'Ruo An'.

Xu Nuo was reminiscing when Shao Rui called.

"Rui Rui".

"The phone in your hand has been tapped!"

Shao Rui's calm voice came from the other end of the phone.

Are you sure?

Xu Nuo asked.

"Sure!"

"Okay, there's one more thing. Could you help me look into the sanatorium where I used to stay? There was a person named Ruo'an there! See if you can find out anything!"

"Um....."

Just as Xu Nuo was about to hang up, Shao Rui stammered:

"Night owl, is the night owl next to you?"

Xu Nuo laughed as she watched the night owl leaning against a big tree taking off his shoes, and nudged him: "Looking for you."

"Huh? Oh!"

Taking the phone, Night Owl put her shoes, which she had only taken off halfway, back on: "Ruibao, did you miss me?"
