Chapter 2161: The Call Came

Madam Li naturally knew that her phone was vibrating. Hearing this, she glared at her daughter. How dare she interrupt her? Did she want to be criticized?

Madam Li, who still wanted to settle the matter at hand, took out her phone from her bag and said to Commander Xia, who looked so serious that the atmosphere was oppressive, Old Xia, calm down first. Ive interacted with Ye Ying a few times. I know that shes not someone who speaks casually.

Besides, theres no smoke without fire. If that military school student is really innocent, how could gossip about her spread? Old Du, Old Xia, while the two of them are around, why dont you ask them about the situation first?

She looked at the caller ID and frowned slightly. It was the company a.s.sistant. What company matter could be so urgent at this time?

She did not answer the call immediately. Instead, she pressed the reject b.u.t.ton and continued to smile at Commander Xia. The military academy is the cradle to nurture the next generation of officers and troop leaders. There cant be any mistakes. If someone makes a claim, then ask, investigate, clarify, and see what exactly is going on.

Commander Xias private phone also rang. It was obvious who was calling at this time. He nodded slightly at Madam Li, who was talking to him, and said calmly, You guys go ahead. Ill take a private call.

It was a call from Xia Jinyuan asking what time he could come to the hospital to visit him.

Your wife has something going on now. Ill deal with it before we both go over! Commander Xia turned around and said with a slightly cold expression, You can come over yourself as well.

Ye Jian was the daughter-in-law of the Xia family and his daughter-in-law. How could he let someone talk nonsense in front of him?

Xia Jinyuan got up from the bed when he heard the first sentence. His handsome face was cold as he said, Where is it? Im coming over now.

Before the exact location was reported, he had already finished undressing. By the time the location was reported, he had already changed into the light green s.h.i.+rt that the troops had issued.

It took less than two minutes for him to strip, change, and get ready to go.

Commander Xia had just taken a few steps away when Madam Lis phone rang again. Her expression turned cold.

When she hung up, it meant that it was not convenient for her to answer the phone right now. Why was her a.s.sistant, who had always understood her, so impatient today?

Commander Zhong, who wanted to leave but had no choice, smiled and said, Madam, you should answer the phone first. Its probably an emergency.

Answer it. I have something to say to Commander Zhong as well. Staff Officer Du, who had nothing to do, helped his wife out of the situation. He gestured to Commander Zhong and walked a few steps away to talk.

Madam Li finally picked up on the seventh call. The companys a.s.sistant was relieved.

Chairwoman Li, theres a very tricky matter on my end. Lets not talk over the phone. Ill report it to you in person. The anxious a.s.sistant had a rather high professional quality. No matter how anxious he was, his speech was still quite steady.

It was naturally inconvenient to talk over the phone. Madam Li looked at the phone and said calmly, Come and report to me. Im at 49 Peoples South Road now. How long will it take for you to come over?

Her smile made it impossible to tell what shed heard. She took it as a report of some small work matter.

The a.s.sistant knew that she was angry when he heard her voice, but what could he do? He smiled bitterly and replied seriously, Okay, Ill be right there.
