Daddy Always Gets Jealous

Once again, he thought about how this was Brother Huo, and how after so many years, the brothers from the Warhawk Team were still following Brother Huo. That must be why.

”No more sound?”

Huo Jinnan hadn’t heard Qin Shaojin’s voice for a while, his voice magnetic.

Qin Shaojin snapped back to reality, ”Found the wallet as well, aside from the money which is unclear, nothing else was lost. However, the email was opened and quite a few attachments were downloaded onto the phone.”

Huo Jinnan saw Che Huan frowning, his voice even lower, ”Check carefully, what’s in the email, particularly about Jindong Group, you and Yu Zimu tally it up.”

”Hmm.”

Just as Qin Shaojin responded, the call ended.

He tossed the phone aside and looked at Wen Nuan, ”How do you explain this?”

Wen Nuan stood there silently, unable to figure out how his phone and wallet ended up in her bedroom! And hidden beneath a pink bra no less!

Embarrassing, shameful!

Qin Shaojin lit a cigarette, after scanning Wen Nuan’s room for a while, he found no suspicious traces; the assailant had clearly come prepared.

Wen Nuan felt very uncomfortable watching Qin Shaojin walk around her room, ”It really wasn’t me!”

”Stubborn,” he retorted.

Qin Shaojin turned around, glanced at Wen Nuan, took a drag of his cigarette, flicked the lighter on and off with a crisp sound, then snuffed it out.

He remembered leaving Muhe Hospital at one-thirty in the afternoon—it had taken no more than an hour to get here.

Now it was four-thirty.

In the intervening two hours, including the time he slept in the car...

Wen Nuan stared at Qin Shaojin, on the verge of tears, feeling like even with a hundred mouths she couldn’t clear things up, let alone with just one.

Qin Shaojin blew a ring of smoke, ”When did you get out of the car?”

Wen Nuan shook her head; how would she know? When she woke up, she found herself leaning on his hand and quickly slipped away; once upstairs, she went back to catch up on sleep, without even a glance at the phone!

Qin Shaojin extinguished his cigarette, licked his lips, and stood there, adjusting his collar with both hands, ”Give me the phone.”

Wen Nuan handed her phone to Qin Shaojin.

Qin Shaojin checked it, glanced at the call time; the time he borrowed a girl’s phone to call Wen Nuan was 3:08, which meant, the person who acted was nearby at that time. As soon as they left, they quickly entered the Wen Family home, with plenty of time to spare.

He stood there, picked up the phone to make a call, ”Zhao Wu, bring the captain over.”

Wen Nuan listened, puzzled as she looked at Qin Shaojin, ”What... what for?”

Qin Shaojin ended the call and looked at Wen Nuan, raising an eyebrow, ”For you?”

”You!”

Wen Nuan’s face reddened with anger as she looked at Qin Shaojin. She really wanted to slap him with some dignity, like in the novels, but as she lifted her arm, she hesitated; she... she had never slapped anyone in her life.

Qin Shaojin smiled innocently, ”So, what do we do? What’s your purpose?”

Wen Nuan glared at Qin Shaojin, at a loss for words; it clearly wasn’t her! Yet the phone and wallet were in her room.

Qin Shaojin opened the wallet and gave it a once-over, ”The check is missing.”

The check!

Ten million!

Wen Nuan’s eyes widened as she stared at Qin Shaojin, he wouldn’t make her pay it all back, would he?

She had thought she could clear her debts, but who would have thought she’d now be saddled with a massive debt she could never repay in a lifetime! Wasn’t it said that the borrower is lord over the lender? Then why wasn’t it the case with her?

So unjust!

Qin Shaojin observed Wen Nuan, ”From now on, when I call, answer within three seconds. Every Saturday and Sunday, clean my law office to work off the debt.”
