Chapter 996 No One Answers
"Well, something happened at the Nie family, so I have to go back..." Nie Yao nodded and replied with a frown.
The old housekeeper had just heard Nie Yao's phone call and vaguely guessed something. He quickly suggested, "Miss Nie, I think we should change a car and have the driver take you back..."
"That's not necessary..." Nie Yao was about to refuse when the old housekeeper advised, "Miss Nie, I just heard you say that there might be media surrounding the Nie family. You might not be able to stop them alone, so why not get a Land Rover and have a driver take you there? That way you'll have some protection!"
Nie Yao recalled the situation when she was surrounded by the media before, and she also felt that the housekeeper's suggestion made sense. She nodded and replied, "Okay, but the driver is supposed to take Li Jinxing away. Wouldn't it be too much trouble for him to take me away too..."
"Miss Nie, don't worry. Master Jiu has already assigned a driver specifically for Miss Nie, and he's here on standby!" The old housekeeper smiled faintly and explained to Nie Yao, "I'll go get the driver right away!"
Nie Yao nodded silently. She never expected that Li Jinxing had already prepared everything for her in an inadvertent place, and his attentiveness was no less than hers!
On the way to the Nie family's old house, Nie Yao called the landline of the Nie family's old house as usual, but no one answered.
Nie Yao frowned slightly. It was daytime, and besides her grandfather, the only other person in the Nie family's old house was housekeeper Lu. Weren't they also in the Nie family's old house?
Nie Yao tried to call again, but found that the line was busy. She had to give up temporarily and picked up the phone to call her father directly.
"Hello, Dad, are you in the company now?" Nie Yao asked anxiously as soon as the phone was connected.
"Yes, A'yao, what's wrong?" Father Nie noticed that his daughter's voice seemed a little nervous, and asked hurriedly with concern.
"Nothing, I just called back to the old house, but no one answered. I was a little worried about Grandpa, so I called you..."
Nie Yao explained in a low voice, and Father Nie suddenly understood. He smiled and comforted her, "Ayao, when I left this morning, your grandfather was fine. He should be fine now. Maybe he went out to relax, and Butler Lu was with him, so there was no one at home..."
Nie Yao was still a little worried after hearing what her father said. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Forget it. I'm already on my way back to the old house. I'd better go back and take a look to make sure I'm at ease..."
"Okay, then you go back and take a look. Call Dad if there is anything!" Father Nie nodded and smiled. His tone was relaxed, as if he was not affected by the news that was circulating on the Internet.
Nie Yao didn't know whether her father was too busy with work to pay attention to the online news or not. She didn't care much about it. It was not convenient to ask more questions on the phone, so she hung up.
When the car arrived at the door of the Nie family's old house, the driver had just stopped the car and turned around to say to Nie Yao respectfully: "Madam, please don't get out of the car yet. I'll go down to see if there are any reporters. If there are no reporters, you can get out later..."
Nie Yao nodded in agreement. After the driver got out of the car and looked around to make sure there were no reporters lurking nearby, he opened the door and let Nie Yao get out.
When Nie Yao got out of the car and walked into the old house of the Nie family, she found it was very quiet inside. There seemed to be no movement, and even Butler Lu did not come out to greet her.
"That's strange, are they all away?" Nie Yao frowned slightly. Seeing that there were no one in the living room, she hurriedly called out for Butler Lu. No response came, so she could only go upstairs to her grandfather's bedroom.
