Chapter 3985: Chapter 3985: Sister Nian Arrives at This Moment
Ji Lin spoke with Ye Lan a few more times.
Ye Lan’s expression gradually became serious and he said to Ji Lin: "I’ll head to the hospital and meet up with you all shortly. Before that, I’ll contact Mo Xi."
"Alright."
Ye Lan hung up and walked back, dialing Mo Xi’s number as he went.
Coincidentally, Qin Si was also calling Mo Xi, leading to both calls being made simultaneously, resulting in a busy line with no connection.
During their repeat attempts to reach Mo Xi, Mo Dong’s call coincidentally connected in between.
Qin Si and Ye Lan simultaneously heard the automated female voice from their phones: "Sorry, the number you dialed is currently engaged, please try again later..."
Qin Si had no choice but to return to Guan Yan and the others, his face somber as he said, "Can’t get through, he’s on a call."
Guan Yan furrowed his brow: "Could he be talking to Zhui Guang?"
"I don’t know."
Indeed, Qin Si didn’t know, but his heart sank, his expression growing increasingly anxious.
**
In reality, Mo Xi didn’t know that Qiao Nian was coming.
After finishing the call outside with Mo Dong, he returned to the manor villa, seeing Nie Qingru up as usual, sitting at the dining table in regal elegance, preparing to have breakfast under the watchful eyes of the brothers guarding her.
She looked up as Mo Xi entered, elegantly putting down her sandwich, lips curling, eyes mocking: "It seems your master isn’t doing too well today either."
The people from Dark Fort, positioned in all four corners of the room guarding her, indeed showed angry expressions, glaring at her fiercely.
Nie Qingru relished their indignant yet incapacitated demeanor, ready to provoke further, taking the opportunity to drive a wedge between Qiao Nian and the people from Dark Fort.
"I had a headache last night, couldn’t sleep. Today you’ll get a doctor for me, but don’t disrupt my nap; better have them come after 3 PM."
"Notify me when you find someone."
Nie Qingru was used to giving orders.
The people from Dark Fort showed even more anger in their expressions.
Mo Xi knew she did it intentionally, still he couldn’t help but be angered by her attitude, suppressing his rage, he reminded her with a fake smile: "Empress, you’re currently a captive."
"So what?" Nie Qingru glanced over indifferently and said, "Qiao Nian doesn’t want me dead here, does she?"
Mo Xi raised his hand to adjust his gold-rimmed glasses, unwilling to entangle further: "I’ll arrange for a doctor later, but when the doctor comes is when you’ll see them."
Nie Qingru pushed back her chair and stood up, her attitude particularly firm as she looked down on him: "I have a nap at noon, we’ll discuss after I’m up."
Mo Xi knew she was deliberately provoking him, yet couldn’t hold back, his jaw tensed, lips drawn in a straight line, gaze following Nie Qingru, almost setting ablaze.
Even he was struggling to hold it together, let alone the others from Dark Fort.
Nie Qingru had been causing trouble over the past days, pushing the patience of anyone with a temper to the brink, someone was about to step forward.
Just then, a brother in charge of surveillance outside jogged in, adding fuel to the tense atmosphere: "Boss, Miss Qiao has arrived."
Mo Xi’s eyelid twitched, feeling the increasingly dissatisfied sentiment of his men around him, paused, and said to the person: "Where is she? I’ll go to meet her."
Qiao Nian arrived? Nie Qingru displayed a surprised expression, not as composed as the people from Dark Fort imagined. She knew Qiao Nian’s attitude towards her better than anyone else... fearing Qiao Nian might publicly embarrass her.
