Zhou Yangying gave Qiao Shinian a positive answer, "Miss, do you need to investigate someone?"

Qiao Shinian said, "Yes. Give me KK's contact information and I'll talk to him in detail."

Zhou Yangying didn't ask any more questions and just did as he was told.

Afterwards, Zhou Yangying told Qiao Shinian that the film and television work he participated in would be completed in the next few days, and he would be able to return to Haicheng soon.

Qiao Shinian first wished his play a big success, and then agreed to meet again in Haicheng.

After ending the call, Qiao Shinian added KK’s contact information, and the other party was quite enthusiastic about her.

He said that after participating in the talent show, he found that he did not have enough talent in music and it would be difficult for him to make it in the entertainment industry, so he chose to open a private investigation agency and treat music purely as a hobby.

Zhou Yangying had told Qiao Shinian about these things, and Qiao Shinian had also seen KK's hacking skills, so he wanted to ask him for help this time.

Qiao Shinian sent KK the relevant information about Ms. Wu, and also told KK the same request she had made to Song Qingchuan.

This time, Qiao Shinian asked Song Qingchuan for help not only to ask him to investigate for her, but more importantly, she wanted to use this to test Song Qingchuan's true intentions.

Not long after she came out of Ms. Wu's community in the evening, Song Qingchuan's car hit her car. The timing was a bit coincidental.

The last time Yiming opened its business, Song Qingchuan helped her block the paint. Mo Xiuyuan suspected Song Qingchuan and felt that his motives were not pure.

As for her miscarriage, although it was found out that it had nothing to do with Song Qingchuan, he even helped her deal with Bai's enterprise.

But Qiao Shinian always felt that Song Man’s nanny was not someone who would be willing to cooperate with Bai Yiyi for the sake of old friendship.

The person most likely to order her around is Song Qingchuan.

Mo Xiuyuan said that Song Qingchuan did not have the seven emotions and six desires of ordinary people, but Qiao Shinian felt that Song Qingchuan seemed to be somewhat close to him.

Qiao Shinian certainly doesn't think that she is so charming that everyone can love her, so Song Qingchuan's behavior and motives are worth pondering.

If Bai Yiyi was not deliberately provoking her, and someone really was targeting her and the Qiao family, then everyone around her would be a suspect, and Qiao Shinian wanted to investigate.

The results of Song Qingchuan's investigation for her this time were no different from those found by KK. He might have nothing to do with his uncle's incident, but if Song Qingchuan concealed something or deliberately distorted some facts, then he would be suspicious.

Qiao Shinian did not choose to investigate Song Qingchuan directly. In addition to not knowing KK's investigative capabilities, she was also afraid that if it was Song Qingchuan, she would alert the enemy.

KK naturally didn't know what Qiao Shinian was thinking, so he readily agreed to her task.

The next day, Qiao Shinian decided to go back home.

Since my uncle's problem cannot be easily resolved, the truth will come out sooner or later and my grandfather will find out.

Instead of being frightened when she finds out suddenly, it would be better for her to find a suitable time to tell her grandfather so that he can be mentally prepared.

After finishing the business at hand, Qiao Shinian asked the driver to take her to Qiao's house.

When she walked into the yard, she saw a tall and upright figure there - Huo Yanci.

Huo Yanci was wearing a black custom-made suit with a light-colored shirt underneath. He looked like a noble and powerful superior, but he was accompanying his grandfather to water the flowers and plants.

This was the first time Qiao Shinian met Huo Yanci since being discharged from the hospital.

Didn’t Lu Chennan say that he was too busy recently? Why did he come to my grandfather’s place?

"Nian Nian is back!"

Grandpa looked up at her and called her lovingly, "Why are you standing there? Come here!"

Qiao Shinian called out "Grandpa" tenderly and walked towards him.

"Why are you here?" Qiao Shinian asked Huo Yanci in a calm voice.

Huo Yanci said calmly, "I haven't visited grandpa for a while. I happened to be free today, so I came over."

Qiao Shinian couldn't help but chuckle, "When you were grandpa's official grandson-in-law before, why didn't you seem so filial and free?"

Huo Yanci remained calm, "It is precisely because I didn't do well enough before that I want to make up for it in the future."

Maybe it was Qiao Shinian's illusion, she always felt that Huo Yanci meant something else in his words.

Qiao Shinian came back for something important. She was too lazy to argue with Huo Yanci and instead ordered him to leave: "Grandpa, you've already seen it. You can go back now."

"Nian Nian," Qiao Donghai scolded, "Don't be so rude. Yan Ci came here specially to accompany me, and I also invited him to dinner at my home."

Qiao Shinian did not answer his grandfather's question, but looked at Huo Yanci, "Mr. Huo, are you leaving or not?"

"Niannian!" Qiao Donghai spoke again.

"Grandpa, it's okay," Huo Yanci said, "I didn't know Nian Nian was coming here today, so I'll excuse myself first. I'll come to see you when I have time."

"It's okay, just stay here and eat. The food is ready in the kitchen!" Qiao Donghai persuaded her to stay.

Huo Yanci glanced at Qiao Shinian with his dark eyes and shook his head, "Maybe another day."

Qiao Donghai also glanced at his granddaughter and shook his head helplessly, "Yan Ci, if you are busy, you don't have to come and accompany me. It's a waste of time."

Before Huo Yanci could speak, Qiao Shinian walked up to Qiao Donghai and said, "Grandpa, let's go inside. I have something to tell you."

"You kid——"

"Near."

Before grandpa could finish his scolding words, Huo Yanci's low and cold voice sounded behind him.

Qiao Shinian looked at him calmly, "Anything else?"

Huo Yanci pursed his lips slightly and said, "I have something to tell you, too."

"Go ahead." Qiao Shinian said directly.

Huo Yanci refused, "Maybe it would be better to talk about it alone."

Qiao Shinian frowned in displeasure, but her grandfather gently pulled her and said, "Talk to Yan Ci for a while. Grandpa will go into the house to see how the food is cooked."

Qiao Donghai said as he walked into the house. Qiao Shinian looked at Huo Yanci and asked, "Can you tell me now?"

Huo Yanci didn't say anything immediately, but looked at her straight in the eyes.

Qiao Shinian, "What are you looking at?"

"Look at you," Huo Yanci raised his head, his dark eyes like a pool of deep water, "Niannian, we haven't seen each other for so many days, I miss you."

Qiao Shinian, "..."

What's wrong with Huo Yanci? Why is he suddenly so straightforward?

"Are the injuries on the back of your head and back all healed? Do you need to go to the hospital for a follow-up check?" Huo Yanci asked again in a low voice.

Qiao Shinian said patiently, "I've checked it again, and there's basically no problem. Huo Yanci, you called me over just to say these things, so I won't keep you company."

Qiao Shinian was about to turn around when Huo Yanci spoke up, "I heard about your uncle. Are you planning to tell grandpa when you come here today?"

Qiao Shinian paused, frowned and looked at Huo Yanci, "How did you hear that?"

My aunt only found out about this yesterday when Ms. Wu came to her house. Is Huo Yanci so well-informed?

Or has Huo Yanci been keeping a close eye on her and the Qiao family?

Huo Yanci saw what Qiao Shinian was thinking and told him directly, "My uncle called me."
