"What sound was that? Did your phone ring?" Liu Ru Yan instinctively asked Lan Ruo Yi.
Lan Ruo Yi shook her head, gesturing for her to look up, where they saw Tian Luo hurriedly answering a call. Whatever news he received seemed alarming; his expression was tense as he hurriedly left.
Just then, Lan Ruo Yi's phone began to vibrate, and Liu Ru Yan's gaze finally focused on her. Lan Ruo Yi picked up the phone and saw the name "Mo Wan" flashing on the screen.
My brother? Lan Ruo Yi thought, puzzled about why he was calling at this moment. Nevertheless, she obediently answered the call.
"Hello, brother? What's wrong?"
"Where are you?" Mo Wan's voice came through, breathless, as if something urgent was happening.
"We? We're at the office," Liu Ru Yan exchanged a confused glance with Lan Ruo Yi, both unsure why he was asking this now.
Liu Ru Yan pressed her body closer to Lan Ruo Yi, leaning in to hear the phone better.
"Where did your sales manager go?" Mo Wan asked a question that seemed completely unrelated, leaving them even more bewildered. What did that mean?
"He just drove away a moment ago; we don’t know where he went," Liu Ru Yan couldn't help but interject. When Mo Wan heard her voice, there was a brief moment of distraction on his end.
"Brother? Are you there? Can you hear me?"
"Is your phone broken? Why is there no sound?"
"Should we hang up and try calling again?"
Hearing them discuss hanging up calmed Mo Wan's nerves a bit. "Ahem, I can hear you; I was just busy."
"Oh, hurry up and tell me what’s going on!"
Lan Ruo Yi found herself increasingly annoyed by her brother's reluctance to speak.
"It's like this: they found the body of your department's leader."
As soon as Mo Wan delivered this shocking news, they heard a loud thud on the other end—the sound of the phone dropping.
Who is it? Sister Na or Li Meng?
Lan Ruo Yi felt that it was more likely to be Li Meng, especially since Mo Wan had just asked Li Meng about it. But then she thought that since they had brought up the topic, it could also be Sister Na. However, Li Meng had just told them about the body being found.
No matter how she thought about it, it all seemed suspicious.
It was Zhang Na. Mo Wan found this news somewhat unbelievable; after all, according to his investigation, learning this information just as he was starting to make progress was quite frustrating.
Sister Na? She was murdered. Lan Ruo Yi said this with such certainty that even Mo Wan found it hard to believe.
How do you know? Mo Wan didn’t want to doubt Lan Ruo Yi, but this wasn’t something that could be resolved just by believing.
Brother, stop keeping us in suspense. How do you know? Lan Ruo Yi looked at Liu Ru Yan, feeling anxious and hurriedly spoke up.
My uncle told me, didn’t he tell you? Mo Wan said this with a hint of glee, as if he had some incredible information.
Lan Ruo Yi and Liu Ru Yan were both confused: Huh? Uncle? My uncle?
Liu Ru Yan hadn’t expected that her uncle would contact Mo Wan without telling her.
Thinking about this, she opened her phone with a serious expression and saw a flood of messages on the screen.
Lan Ruo Yi leaned over to look as well; the messages were all from Liu Yuchuan, but her phone had been on silent, so she hadn’t seen anything. The timing suggested it was when Li Meng had reached out to them.
No wonder Li Meng told us then; things must have been exposed, and there was no choice! Lan Ruo Yi realized this aspect too; her eyes narrowed as she spoke into the phone to Mo Wan: Brother, I got it, I’m hanging up now.
Just as she was about to hang up, she heard Mo Wan ask: What are you planning to do?
The two exchanged glances and understood each other’s thoughts: What are we planning? We don’t know anything!
What we need to focus on is who orchestrated this, who is behind it all, and why it’s such a coincidence. Of course, they wouldn’t share these thoughts with Mo Wan.
Hehe, alright! After hanging up with Mo Wan, Liu Ru Yan began checking Liu Yuchuan’s messages: Uncle Gold Coin: Liu Ru Yan, what are you doing??? Are you still alive???
"Why haven't you messaged me??? I know where your leader went; her body is at the police station. Do you need Uncle to start a broadcast for you?"
Liu Xia Sui: "You finally messaged me; I was about to call the police."
Liu Xia Sui: "Uncle, you need to be calm!"
Uncle Gold Coin: "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Liu Xia Sui: "I didn't say anything."
Just after Liu Ru Yan finished speaking, Liu Yuchuan's call came in.
"Hello, where are you?" Liu Yuchuan's voice was as offbeat as ever.
"In the underground parking lot." Liu Ru Yan glanced at her surroundings and replied to Liu Yuchuan.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yuchuan said, "Oh, the young lady finally remembered she has a car?"
Liu Ru Yan: "Whose uncle is being so sarcastic?"
"Oh, it's mine."
Liu Ru Yan moved the phone away from her ear and handed it to Lan Ruo Yi: "Yi Yi, it's your turn."
Lan Ruo Yi: "??? What am I supposed to do?"
