Chapter 524

Jiang Nannan searched through everything, and seeing that there was no media exposure, the heart she had been holding in suspense finally settled.

It seemed the person in charge of the branch office over there had resolved the matter quickly, without causing too much of an impact.

Once Huo Jingyan arrived, the matter should be calmed down very quickly.

The deceased's family would also be well taken care of.

Jiang Nannan had just put down her phone when she suddenly discovered an unread WeChat message.

It seemed to be from a stranger she hadn't chatted with, a friend she had added two days ago; she had forgotten she had even added such a person over these past two days.

She tapped to view it.

【You don't understand Huo Jingyan.】

Did this person know Huo Jingyan?

Or was it some friend of Huo Jingyan, or perhaps a burner account belonging to a friend or relative of hers, coming to tease her?

【Who are you?】 she asked.

After asking, she set her phone aside, picked up her loungewear, and went into the bathroom.

There really was a bit of an odor on her; some vegetable juice had accidentally spilled on her clothes. If she hadn't been interrupted just now, she felt that Huo Jingyan truly wouldn't have cared whether she smelled or not.

Thinking of the scene just now, Jiang Nannan couldn't help but blush, and she patted her face, "We've been married for a year, it's not like we're newlyweds; what big scene haven't I seen? Why am I still shy?"

After she finished her shower and came out, she checked her phone again before going to sleep, but the person who had inexplicably sent that message had gone silent again.

How strange.

Just as she was about to tap delete contact, she changed her mind.

She had a premonition in her heart that this person was likely not just playing a prank.

She felt that something was not quite right.

Forget it, she would keep it and see what this person actually wanted to do.

At the same time.

At this moment, Ye Yaoguang was on her way to the airport.

She had learned from a former colleague that an accident had occurred at a factory in Y City, and Huo Jingyan had already gone there.

She probably wouldn't be able to catch the same flight as Huo Jingyan.

In the taxi, she looked at Jiang Nannan's inquiry and sneered.

Did she want to know who she was?

She would know who she was very soon.

Even the heavens were helping her, creating an opportunity for her and Huo Jingyan; this time, she was going to let Huo Jingyan know she was pregnant.

Her health did not allow for an abortion; apart from this child, she would never have another chance to give birth in the future.

She would definitely keep Huo Jingyan!

——

While half-asleep and half-awake, Shu Xia felt someone embrace her.

She habitually snuggled closer to the embrace behind her.

It was also as she moved closer that she became somewhat awake.

"You're back?"

"Mm, sleep." Qiao Muting's voice was gentle.

Shu Xia was too sleepy; after muzzily responding with a "mm," she closed her eyes again and fell asleep within a few breaths.

Qiao Muting looked at the woman held in his arms, his heart suddenly softening uncontrollably.

Listening to her steady breathing, he slowly fell asleep as well.

When they woke up the next morning, Qiao Muting asked Shu Xia, "Was there something you wanted to tell me yesterday?"

After waking up, Shu Xia was full of energy and had almost forgotten about yesterday's matter.
