Chapter 1191: A Mastermind Behind It
Huo Yao raised her brow and asked when she did not hear any sound from Liu Qian. “Mr. Liu?”
Sure enough, Huo Yao was really different from the rest of them. Liu Qian cleared his throat. He answered calmly. “I just wanted to tell you about it. Have an early night. See you at 9:00 am at my office tomorrow.”
The moment he finished his sentence, he hung up the phone.
He was afraid that he would not be able to keep up his fa?ade since he had a lot to say about her unenthusiastic reaction.
Huo Yao raised her brow and put down her phone.

Ji Kaiyang returned to the Ji residence with a heavy heart.
Song Qi was waiting in the living room. When she heard a sound coming from the door, she walked over. “Welcome home.”
“Uh huh,” acknowledged Ji Kaiyang. He took off his coat and gave it to Song Qi.
“How is the company doing?” asked Song Qi.
Ji Kaiyang changed into a pair of clean slippers and walked in exhaustedly. “For some reason, more investors pulled out their funds.”
Song Qi frowned. She asked as she followed behind him. “What’s gotten into them? We have the best rate of returns in the industry. Do they have a problem with money or something?”
Ji Kaiyang rubbed his brow. He walked up to the couch and sat down without saying a word. His face clearly looked exhausted.
Song Qi waved at the butler to send a gla.s.s of warm milk. She asked him again. “Is the firm deeply affected by the loss of investors?”
“A little.” Ji Kaiyang did not speak further about the business. He kept thinking about how the department managers thought about the situation.
Based on their a.n.a.lysis, someone was deliberately causing trouble for the company.
Song Qi took her phone from her pocket to check out the investment firm’s financial situation. Since she was not a financial expert, she had shallow knowledge of the business.
Song Qi raised her head and glanced at Ji Kaiyang. Expectedly, he was not in the mood to talk and looked to be deep in thought. She stood up and went upstairs.
Ji Ya was always good with numbers. Perhaps she could tell Song Qi what the problem was.
The butler came over with a gla.s.s of warm milk and gave it to Ji Kaiyang.
Ji Kaiyang only took a few sips of warm milk before placing the gla.s.s on the table. He leaned against the couch’s backrest and sat for over ten minutes before standing to go upstairs.
The butler was straightening out the cabinet when he noticed a parcel inside. He took it out for a look. Since Ji Kaiyang was going upstairs, he quickly handed the package to Ji Kaiyang. “Sir, this is Madam’s package. I think she must have forgotten about it. Mind pa.s.sing it to her?”
Ji Kaiyang nodded. He reached his hand out to take the package and quickly went upstairs.
When he got to the room, Song Qi was not there. He tossed the package onto the coffee table and went to the bathroom.
After Song Qi left Ji Ya’s bedroom, she went downstairs. When she realized that Ji Kaiyang had gone to the room, she went back upstairs.
Ji Kaiyang was already done bathing. Song Qi told him what Ji Ya had to say after seeing the numbers.
“Did she say someone was behind it?” Ji Kaiyang put down the hairdryer and looked at Song Qi in shock.
Song Qi nodded. “You know she is good with numbers. I trust her. You should call your men to investigate this.”
Ji Kaiyang narrowed his eyes. He took out his phone and called his a.s.sistant.
Song Qi stood by the side and listened as he spoke on the phone without disturbing him. Then, she took her pajamas and went to the bathroom.
When she came out, Ji Kaiyang was done with the phone. He glanced at the package on the coffee table and said, “Oh yes. The butler mentioned that you have a package.”
He pointed at the coffee table.
