She told An Mingji about calling him earlier, but Yang Miaomiao answered the phone.

Upon hearing this, the young man’s brow furrowed tightly, and he immediately took out his phone to check the call records.

Seeing his anxious expression, Gu Jin sighed, "Why did you hand your phone over to someone else so casually?"

"I didn’t give it to her!" An Mingji denied.

He checked the call records, and only the call from Gu Jin wasn’t answered by him; everything else appeared normal.

Staring at the timestamp of this call, An Mingji recalled that he was probably changing clothes at that time, having placed his phone carelessly on a public shelf.

It was only during that time that his phone was out of his control.

The locker room was full of guys. For Yang Miaomiao to get his phone, someone must’ve taken it while he was changing and handed it over to her.

The person who took his phone definitely didn’t intend to pick up Gu Jin’s call,

it was just a coincidence that Gu Jin called at that time, and Yang Miaomiao boldly answered it.

Yang Miaomiao must have been trying to snoop through his phone’s content.

Answering Gu Jin’s call suggests that she really felt fearless!

An Mingji gripped the phone tightly, finding Yang Miaomiao more and more inscrutable.

The other party seemed not to worry at all about him discovering her intentions.

"Master! You’re here!"

A familiar voice sounded from behind.

Gu Jin turned her head and saw her top apprentice, Yu Shuo, staggering into the lounge, reeking of alcohol.

She slightly frowned, "Why did you drink so much?"

Yu Shuo ambled over with a grin, "I’m happy today!"

His joyful demeanor made one curious.

In Gu Jin’s impression, Yu Shuo wasn’t someone who outwardly displayed emotions like this. She raised an eyebrow, "What makes you so happy?"

"I’m going to have a younger brother or sister!"

Yu Shuo didn’t hold back and directly revealed the reason.

"..." Gu Jin.

"..." An Mingji.

The two were a bit stunned – Yu Qingli and Madam Qiu Qingyun had a child?

And the age gap with Yu Shuo would be roughly twenty years.

Gu Jin asked, "How many months is your mother pregnant?"

Yu Shuo sported a foolish smile, "Four months, the baby will be born next year!"

"Hmm, so you’re saying you’ll be about twenty-one years older than your future brother or sister, that’s practically a generational gap," Gu Jin remarked seriously with a nod.

"..."

Yu Shuo, initially filled with joy and expectation, had his smile instantly turn vacant.

His intoxicated mind was spinning with thoughts – son? daughter? brother? sister?

His already addled head was even more confused.

Yu Shuo shook his head vigorously, "What a mess, it’s definitely a brother or sister!"

Judging by his demeanor, it was clear he had drunk too much.

Gu Jin got up and walked to Yu Shuo’s side, "Do you still remember which room? What about Jiang Hanyi?"

"I remember, he’s in room 8362, he’s still drinking inside!" Yu Shuo’s words were clear, not seeming drunk.

But his eyes had lost their usual clarity.

Gu Jin turned back and said to young An sitting at the bar, "Wait here for me, I’ll take him back."

"Okay—"

An Mingji watched Gu Jin support Yu Shuo as they walked away, his expression calm and without change.

The phone on the bar suddenly vibrated.

He glanced at the caller – it was Kasi.

With fingers long and pale as jade, he picked up the phone and smoothly answered.

Kasi’s respectful voice echoed, "Young master, the people dispatched to Shenzhen have returned."

An Mingji gently tapped the table with his other hand, his expression sharpening, "What did they find out?"

Kasi respectfully reported, "Your classmate Yang Miaomiao is indeed targeting Miss Gu, and also——"
