Chapter 130: A Woman’s Phone Call

The automated television flashes a picture.

Dan Hanjie slowly turns around, catching a glimpse of the live broadcast connected to Qin group. His eyes glint slightly.

He steps forward, stubs out his cigarette in the ashtray, and sits in the leather office chair.

His long legs are casually crossed, one hand supporting his chin, he raises his eyebrows looking at the television.

“… What you see now is the shareholders’ meeting about to be called by Qin Group following a major blow to its corporate reputation. The person we will interview next is the president of Qin Group, Mr. Qin Mo…”

Dan Hanjie stares emotionlessly at the bustling picture, where a large crowd of journalists are blocking Qin Mo outside the Qin building.

The atmosphere on the scene is even more heated than the day the scandal broke out.

Almost everyone is waiting to see how Qin Group will weather this crisis, and Qin Youxuan, who is undoubtedly the focus of this shareholder meeting as the person in charge of crisis management.

Dan Hanjie squints his eyes, glances at the crowds outside the Qin building, raises his head, looks at the time on his hand, and presses the intercom.

“Come in.”

Just as his words were spoken, the door of the president’s office was pushed open from the outside.

“Mr. Jie.” Yao respectfully approaches his desk.

“Make a call for her.”

Yao stutters, looking rather baffled.

Mr. Jie didn’t mention any name. Who was he supposed to call?

A glint flashes across Yao’s eyes as he catches sight of the news on the television and Qin Mo, surrounded by the media, finally extracting himself… a light bulb goes off in his head.

“I understand.”

Yao quickly walks to the side and dials Qin Youxuan’s number.

Less than half a minute later, Yao turns around, somewhat surprised, “Mr. Jie, Miss Qin’s phone is turned off.”

“Shut down?” Dan Hanjie’s eyes tighten, reflecting a hint of danger.

Looking towards the front of the Qin building, where a certain figure still hasn’t appeared, his fingers on the desktop slowly tighten, his thin lips curve into a dangerous arc.

“Call the telecommunications company and find out who she contacted last.”

“Yes.”

Yao contemplated for a moment, guessing that something might have happened. He didn’t dare to ask more questions and quickly contacted the telecom company from the side.

It didn’t take long to find out who Qin Youxuan’s last contact was.

“Mr. Jie, it was a woman’s call, not an untraceable number. The ID registered to the number is named Ning Yanan.”

“Mr… Mr. Jie?”

Ning Yanan felt like she must be dreaming and unconsciously slipped into a trance as she heard the voice over the phone.

To make sure it wasn’t her illusion, she moved the phone away, the display indeed showed an ongoing call.

She couldn’t help but pinch her thigh, grimacing in pain.

Finally reassured that she wasn’t dreaming, and that Dan Hanjie truly called her, she hastily stuffed the microphone in her hand into her colleague’s embrace and escaped to a corner with her phone.

“Mr… Mr. Jie, what are your orders? Just give the word, I will forge ahead through fire and water at any cost…”

“What was the last thing Qin Youxuan said to you?” Dan Hanjie’s icy voice from the other end of the phone was chilling. Ning Yanan subconsciously shivered.

“Xuan… Xuan…” Ning Yanan was stumped and murmured uncertainly.

“Mr. Jie, why would you call me if you’re looking for Xuan?”

“Her phone is off, and she didn’t go to Qin Group. Your call was the last one listed on her phone’s record. Right now, repeat her words to me, word for word!”
