Chapter 537: 343 Operation too hardcore, Qi Duidui breaks through the affair? (4 more)

It wasn’t that he intentionally hung up on Jiang Jinsang’s call, but a new call had come through, from Qi Zeyan.

“Old Huo, you said today that you would take responsibility for Miss Shen’s issue, how exactly will you take responsibility? Maybe I should bring something and visit her another day.” Qi Zeyan had a quick thought about the kind of person someone was; he was quite clear about it.

He was going to show concern for Shen Shuci?

That was bound to scare the poor girl to death. It was an incident caused by him, and it wouldn’t be right to remain uninvolved.

“Because of me, the horse got frightened, and I didn’t inquire further, that’s not too good.”

“You don’t trust me?”

“Of course, that’s not what I mean at all! When it comes to handling matters, I trust you completely. Who could be more reliable than you? Even Jiang Yanting and Jiang Xiaowu aren’t as careful as you are.” Desperate to survive.

If it were anything else, Qi Zeyan would certainly trust him, but this was about social niceties, and someone was really lacking in that area.

Qi Zeyan was close to telling him: I really don’t trust you!

“If that’s the case, what do you mean by calling?”

Since he trusted him yet called to take responsibility, it obviously meant distrust.

“I… I got confused with busyness today, hanging up now.”

Qi Zeyan finished speaking and hung up the phone. Could it really be that he was going to ignore the matter?

Yesterday, when the horse got startled, he was there too and watched with a pounding heart. If there had been a serious fall, it wouldn’t have resulted in disability, but at least some skin would have been lost. Qi Zeyan always felt uneasy about it…

Maybe he should still visit her some other day.

Meanwhile, Shen Shuci was still pondering whether to send him a message to explain today’s messaging incident but didn’t know what to say. It was too awkward.

Before she could send a message, she received a text from him:

[Pick you up at 6 am tomorrow.]

Not a word more than necessary. Shen Shuci lay on her back in bed, unsure of what to do next. She spent ages drafting a message:

[Mr. Huo, I really appreciate your concern, but my hand is no longer a serious problem. You really don’t need to go to the trouble for me. I feel bad about making you run back and forth. I will drive myself tomorrow…]

She sent a message of a hundred or so words, only to receive a four-word reply:

[Lying is not good.]

Shuci stared at the message, dumbfounded,
