Chapter 914: I Had Already Eaten Out
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
It was quite rare for Nuannuan to look so down. What happened to her?
s.h.i.+ Yuting also frowned as he watched her.
“Nuannuan, aren’t you going to eat?” Shen Lanzhi started to get a little worried.
She looked like the last time Xiangyi had been in the hospital.
Could it be…
Did she go to see Xiangyi just now? Did she do something wrong again?
At the corner of the stairs, Nuannuan’s slightly lonely voice came, “I already ate out just now.”
Shen Lanzhi sighed, then turned around and walked into the dining room.
Zuo Weiyi turned to look at the man in front of her. As her older brother, she wondered if he knew what was wrong with his younger sister.
s.h.i.+ Yuting’s gaze also met her bright black pupils. “Let’s go, let’s eat!”
He held her in his arms and walked downstairs.
After a morning’s rest, Zuo Weiyi had recovered very well. Her fever had also subsided, but her body was still a little sore.
Shen Lanzhi stood at the dining table and prepared some dishes. Then, she carried them out to the dining room on a tray and arrived at the door of her daughter’s room on the second floor.
s.h.i.+ Yuting had just sat down and had a mouthful of rice when his cell phone rang.
After swallowing the rice, he took out his cell phone and glanced at the caller ID. Then, he got up and walked to the window of the living room to answer the call.
The call was from Xiangyi, reporting the results of the investigation on Ke Zhengfeng to him.
“Other than going to some entertainment venues secretly, there doesn’t seem to be anything special going with him recently.”
“Continue the investigation.”
“Yes,” answered Xiang Yi. Then, he suddenly remembered something. “Oh right, there’s one more thing.”
s.h.i.+ Yuting frowned and waited for him to continue.
“It was this morning. Ke Zhengfeng suddenly changed his bodyguards except for his personal a.s.sistant.”
s.h.i.+ Yuting frowned slightly. Why would a finance minister change his bodyguards when nothing happened?
“Why?”
“They said that these people are more capable. I heard that there was an a.s.sa.s.sination attempt on him and he almost lost his life, so he changed his bodyguards.”
“Is that true?”
“Half a year ago, he was indeed beaten up, but the other party didn’t seem to have any intention of killing him. They probably just wanted to teach him a lesson.” Politics was complicated, and it was inevitable to make enemies. These were quite natural.
“What about those bodyguards? Did you check their ident.i.ties?”
“I did, but there was nothing suspicious on them. One of them was hired from abroad. I heard that he’s very capable.”
“If there’s no problem, don’t bother about it. Continue to keep an eye on Ke Zhengfeng.”
“Yes.”
After s.h.i.+ Yuting finished his instructions, he was about to hang up the phone.
But Xiangyi quickly called out again.
“Mr. s.h.i.+!”
s.h.i.+ Yuting frowned upon hearing Xiangyi’s anxious voice through the phone. “What’s the matter?”
On the phone, Xiangyi was silent for two seconds before he finally spoke.
“Has Nuannuan arrived hom?”
Because s.h.i.+ Yuting knew about them, there was no need for Xiangyi to deliberately hide anything from him. He could called her Nuannuan directly instead of the usual respectful ‘Miss’.
s.h.i.+ Yuting was slightly startled. He turned his head and glanced in the direction of the second floor before replying softly, “Yes, she’s already home.”
Although Nuannuan was in a bad mood after returning and did not even eat lunch, s.h.i.+ Yuting could not bring himself to say such emotional words. There was no need for him to tell Xiangyi either.
