Chapter 1403 New Discovery
Nie Yao couldn't help but curl the corners of her lips slightly, and said to Butler Lu with a smile: "Regarding the Nie family's affairs, let Grandpa relax and take good care of yourself. Don't worry..."
Butler Lu nodded quickly and responded, then took his packed things and returned to the hospital.
Nie Yao gave a few instructions to the maids guarding the Nie family's old house and left.
She originally wanted to wait for Li Jinxing to come back and go with him to choose a dog suitable for raising in the Nie family yard, but she suddenly received a call from Steve, saying that there was a new discovery in the underground palace!
"Steve, are you saying that the radar scan revealed a secret room that might contain a large collection of metals?"
Nie Yao's eyes widened, and she asked in surprise, "Are you sure?"
"Yes, and we all think that this secret room should be even larger than the weapons storage room we found last time!"
Steve on the other end of the phone nodded, his tone unable to hide his excitement.
"Great, have you opened the secret room?" Nie Yao asked hurriedly with concern.
"Not yet. To be honest, Senior, we've been trying all sorts of ways to open it these past few days, but nothing works!"
Steve shook his head and said in a low voice with a bitter face, "Because this secret room is so large, we are all very concerned. Even Director Tawfik came to help, but he is also at a loss. We suspect that the mechanism to open this secret room may be related to the heirloom key that Mr. Li handed over, but we still can't find a way!"
At this point, he added, "Senior, how is the situation with your grandfather? Can you come back to Egypt and work with us to find a solution?"
"My grandfather's surgery was successful and he's out of danger. And there's good news: my second uncle has also been taken away by the police and is awaiting his final trial!"
Nie Yao replied with a faint smile. Steve heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this and suggested excitedly, "Then can Senior Sister come back soon?"
"Well, I'll buy a plane ticket back to Egypt right away. You guys wait..."
Nie Yao comforted Steve, ended the call, and prepared to start packing.
When Li Jinxing came back from the company, Nie Yao had already packed her luggage and booked a flight for the evening.
Seeing her pulling her suitcase and seemingly preparing to leave, Li Jinxing couldn't help but frown and asked in a low voice: "Yaoyao, are you sure you want to leave so quickly? Why not leave tomorrow morning? I'll arrange a flight for you..."
"I came back so suddenly this time that I've already been delayed for several days. Now that Grandpa is fine, Nie Guanglin has been arrested, and Nie Jinxi has been caught red-handed, it's time for me to go back!"
Nie Yao smiled faintly. Seeing that Li Jinxing was still a little unhappy, she stood on tiptoe and kissed his cheek. She helped him adjust his tie and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I didn't have time to tell you after I finished talking to Steve on the phone. There was a major discovery over there, and I had to rush over..."
Seeing that she was speaking so urgently, Li Jinxing could only sigh helplessly, put his arms around her waist, kissed the corner of her lips, and sighed softly: "Okay, I won't stop you, your grandfather is here, and I'm here, you can rest assured!"
"Okay, I've talked to Butler Lu, and he said Grandpa likes dogs, too. I originally wanted to pick one with you, but now I can only leave the dog matter to you. Please help me choose a healthy dog for Grandpa to protect the Nie family's old house!"
Nie Yao looked at him earnestly, and was thankful that he was there for her, otherwise it would have been difficult for her to balance between the Nie family and her own archaeological career!
