Chapter 751

She said to Li Qianqian, who came running over quickly to ask, "Don't worry, the person has been found. Shu Xia is fine now. When it is convenient for her tomorrow, you can go to the hospital to see her."

"That's great! I knew my brother was capable! Now I can rest easy. I'm going to tell Gu Cheng right now; he said Gu Lao was worried too." After giving Li Yuan a hug, Li Qianqian immediately went to make a phone call.

——

Hua Qian glanced at the time.

It was already this late, why hadn't the video been sent over yet?

Were they too busy enjoying themselves?

"Has the video been sent over?" Qiao Guanqing walked down from upstairs and asked Hua Qian, who was frowning.

Hua Qian shook her head, "It hasn't been sent yet. I'll make a call to ask."

Men are all animals driven by their lower halves, with no sense of reason.

She didn't know why, but ever since Li Yuan finished his call with Qiao Guanqing, she had felt flustered, as if something was about to happen.

Perhaps it was the telepathy between husband and wife, but Qiao Guanqing also felt inexplicably restless.

Hua Qian immediately made the call.

The call went through, but no one answered.

Hua Qian vaguely felt something was wrong and called again, but still, no one answered.

"What's going on?" Qiao Guanqing asked in a cold voice.

Hua Qian was slightly panicked, "They aren't answering the phone over there. It's unclear how far things have progressed."

Even if they were playing around and things had gotten out of control, they shouldn't be ignoring calls.

These people wouldn't be that unreliable in their work.

"Not answering the phone?" Qiao Guanqing also frowned with a serious expression.

After all, the couple had experienced many things and seen all kinds of storms, and they had a faint, ominous premonition.

Just as Hua Qian was about to call again, a servant suddenly came to inform them that Qiao Muting had arrived.

The couple looked at each other.

Coming to see them at this juncture, it was likely that Qiao Muting had heard some rumors.

"Hmph, is he here to question me about whether I know Shu Xia's whereabouts? Ever since this son grew up, the things he does are truly more disappointing than the last." Qiao Guanqing snorted through his nose.

Hua Qian was not so optimistic, "Husband, let's not see him for now. Let's wait until today's events pass and see him tomorrow."

Seeing that Hua Qian was feeling guilty and worried, Qiao Guanqing said in a deep voice, "Don't overthink it. I am his father; there are some things he must endure for the sake of my position as his father. Even if half of the Qiao Family is in his hands now, there is nothing he can do to me or you."

In the Qiao Family, his status was bound to be far higher than Qiao Muting's.

If Qiao Muting's status were higher than his, wouldn't he become a laughingstock in the Qiao Family?

Hua Qian was not as optimistic as Qiao Guanqing.

She felt that Qiao Muting coming to find them wasn't as simple as asking about Shu Xia's whereabouts.

But after all, it was just her premonition and guess.

It was impossible for Qiao Muting to have the reach to find Shu Xia.

Even if she and Qiao Guanqing hadn't been in Jing City these past few years, it was impossible for Qiao Muting to have grown that quickly.

While Hua Qian was lost in thought, the servant had already invited Qiao Muting in.

As Qiao Muting walked in with an air of chill, Qiao Guanqing said with a cold face, "We've been back for a while, and you only just thought to come see me today?"

It was as if having a son made no difference to him.

Qiao Muting swept a cold glance at Qiao Guanqing, ignored his sarcasm, and spoke, "Was it your instruction for her to do it?"

As his voice fell, he raised his cold eyes to glance at Hua Qian.

Hua Qian's heart jumped violently.

"What do you mean? Coming here to be snide with me? Do you still have me, your father, in your eyes at all?" Qiao Guanqing asked back angrily.
