She called, but contrary to what she expected, no one spoke on the phone.
"Beiting?"
Yan Qing took the phone, frowned, took it away and looked at it again. The call was connected, but why was no one talking? Was it because the signal was bad?
Yan Qing spoke with some hesitation.
After Huo Yuanlu answered the call, he suddenly felt a little regretful. Thinking of the possibility that he might be killed by his brother later, his right eyelid twitched twice.
But at this time the call was already connected. I thought it was about work, but who knew it was my sister-in-law!
Listening to his sister-in-law's voice on the other end of the phone, Huo Yuanlu couldn't help but feel like crying. He was about to explain that his brother was not there, but only uttered a sigh.
Yan Qing on the other side heard the noise from the other side and knew that Huo Beiting was there, so he spoke without thinking.
It was obviously too late to hang up the phone at this time. He could only bite the bullet and speak. Just as he was about to explain clearly, Yan Qing on the other end of the phone did not give him the chance.
A series of words came out in a rambling manner.
"What did you mean by that last time? How much do you know about Liu Xiaoyun's affairs? Do you still remember what you told me last time? I didn't take it seriously at the time. Would you mind telling me in detail now?"
Yan Qing frowned and spoke, obviously wanting to get an answer from him, but he never expected that the person on the other end of the phone was not Huo Beiting.
If she knew, she wouldn't have said anything so hastily.
When she asked these two questions, Huo Yuanlu was actually stumped.
Liu Xiaoyun's matter? What happened to Liu Xiaoyun? How come I didn't know about it?
The expression on Huo Yuanlu's face showed obvious confusion. He asked back hesitantly, not quite sure what Yan Qing was asking about.
"What do you want to ask Liu Xiaoyun? There are so many things, but I'm not sure which one you're talking about. If you tell me in detail, maybe I can tell you."
Huo Yuanlu spoke with some hesitation.
Not knowing what Yan Qing was going to ask, he didn't know how to answer immediately. Instead, he forgot that the phone was not his, but Huo Beiting's.
Yan Qing didn't expect that the voice on the other end of the phone was unfamiliar. Her expression froze for a moment, and she carefully looked at the notes to make sure she had dialed the right number.
Only then did he speak hesitantly, cautiously trying to find the answer.
"I'm looking for Huo Beiting. Excuse me, who are you?" Yan Qing's eyes flashed with annoyance. He gritted his teeth and pinched his palms secretly.
If I had known this would happen, I should have asked before I spoke. I was so careless as to ask. Unexpectedly, when I called, it wasn't Huo Beiting who answered the phone.
She covered her forehead with her hands, looking embarrassed and sighing in her heart.
But this seemed somewhat familiar, which made her imagination run wild. Then her face stiffened slightly and she spoke with a trembling voice.
"Are you Liu Xiaoyun himself?"
Yan Qing's hands suddenly started to tremble. If something this dramatic really happened, she felt that all her luck in this life might have been used up.
I silently said in my heart, please don’t do this, please don’t do this…
She had experienced all kinds of fantastic things, but Yan Qing really didn't want to encounter a situation where she asked questions behind the scenes and was overheard by the person involved and caught.
Because it's just too embarrassing.
Huo Yuanlu couldn't help but chuckle when he heard what she said because of Yan Qing's imagination. But because of this laugh, Yan Qing suddenly relaxed.
She was familiar with Liu Xiaoyun, and just by hearing that laugh, she was sure of it. The person on the other end of the phone wasn't him, and the heavy weight in her heart suddenly relaxed, and she patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Who are you? How did you get Huo Beiting's phone number?" Yan Qing confirmed that it wasn't Liu Xiaosha, and after calming down, he frowned and said, "If it's convenient, could you help me find him? I have something important to discuss with him."
As she spoke, her fingertips tapped lightly on the table.
Huo Yuanlu raised his eyebrows and smiled meaningfully, "He's busy right now, and I don't think he can answer the phone for a while."
"Could you please talk to him for me? It's very urgent."
Yan Qing frowned, looking somewhat helpless. "By the way, what is he doing now? What is your relationship with him? How did his phone end up in your hands?"
Huo Yuanlu pursed his lips and smiled, with a hint of interest in his eyes.
"I'm his younger brother. My brother is in a meeting right now, so he probably can't answer your call. If you want to find him, you can only wait, or you can ask me."
When he said this, it was obvious that he wanted to talk more with Yan Qing.
In order to understand his sister-in-law's personality, he had a rough idea in his mind just from talking on the phone. She was a very interesting person.
After all, it would be easy to imagine that the person who answered the phone might be Liu Xiaoyun.
Thinking of her voice that couldn't help but tremble even through the network cable, Huo Yuanlu couldn't help but laugh softly, thinking it was very interesting.
"I know a lot about Liu Xiaoyun. I might also know what you want to ask. Why don't you try and tell me? My brother probably won't be able to answer your call until later." Huo Yuanlu instigated.
"I see you're quite anxious, sister-in-law. Why don't you ask me first? I'll have my brother call you back later. Is that okay?"
After he said so much, there was no sound on the other end of the phone.
Huo Yuanlu was a little confused. He turned up the volume of his phone to the maximum. He vaguely heard heavy breathing coming from the microphone and was about to say something.
Then I heard Yan Qing's voice coming over.
"Sorry, I'll call back later."
She hung up the phone right after she finished speaking.
Huo Yuanlu wanted to speak up to save the situation, but the call was already over. He stared at the black screen, a bewildered expression on his face. He clutched the phone and thought carefully, wondering if he had said something wrong.
But after thinking about it, I really can't think of any problem.
I just thought Yan Qing was shy and embarrassed, so I hung up the phone.
Huo Yuanlu obediently put his phone back. When he saw someone coming out of the meeting room, he immediately sat up straight, looking well-behaved and honest.
But I was prepared to be severely punished.
On the other end of the phone, Yan Qing was stunned when she heard that the person answering the phone was Huo Beiting's younger brother. When did he have a younger brother? How come she didn't know anything about it?
And this was not the most important thing. The most important thing was the name his brother had just called her. She was so frightened that her hands trembled and she hung up the phone.
Now that I think about it, this operation was actually very rude.
But she covered her face, and the exposed part of her fair skin had already been stained red, which was extremely obvious against the background.
Sister-in-law... Yan Qing's face suddenly turned redder when she thought of this.
How can you call someone like that casually?
She muttered to herself, and her eyes showed obvious hesitation and embarrassment.
