Chapter 1810: Chapter 137: Tall Trees in the South

The old man sat there without a word, nor did he speak for Qin Shaoling.

Truly, one brings misfortune upon oneself!

The two have never gotten along since childhood. When Shaoling was young, he killed a cat that the second son kept, and they harbored a grudge.

One loves to play tricks, the other loves to use fists...

Just thinking about it gives me a headache!

The old lady looked at Qin Shaonan, "Why not report it to the police?" 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Qin Shaonan, "There’s no evidence. It’s all been cleaned up thoroughly."

The old lady, "How could he possibly have that ability?"

Qin Shaonan said quietly, "Naturally, someone helped him, but I don’t know who. Only Lu Bo saw him appear nearby, and the surveillance footage was edited."

The old lady, "..."

Who is helping the little scoundrel Qin Shaoling?

It’s not that the second son loves to hit him; it’s his own fault for asking for trouble!

The old man looked at Qin Shaonan, "Still can’t reach Qiao Qiao?"

Qin Shaonan remained silent.

The old man sat there making several phone calls.

Qin Shaonan looked at the old lady, "Grandma, watch him for me. I’m going out for a bit."

The old lady looked at Qin Shaonan, incredibly tense over a girl, both happy and worried something might happen to Qiao Qiao, "Hurry up and go. If there’s news, remember to call us."

Qin Shaonan responded with a "Hmm" and walked out.

After meeting with Huo Bei, he handed Qin Shaoling’s phone to Huo Bei.

Huo Bei checked it over, then looked at Qin Shaonan, "It’s thoroughly cleaned up. This is beyond ordinary skill—rather peculiar."

Qin Shaonan was about to speak when his phone rang.

Seeing it was Qiao Qiao, he furrowed his brows with multiple creases, answered the call, and immediately heard Qiao Qiao’s joyful voice.

"The agreement has been signed. Now it’s up to Dr. Lu when to do the surgery."

Qin Shaonan frowned, "Where are you?"

Qiao Qiao, "I went to the place where Grandma lives. Grandma has some things she wants me to help pack up."

Qin Shaonan listened, full of suspicion, "Where is Grandma living? I’ll come to pick you up."

Qiao Qiao mentioned the place and couldn’t help but ask, "Did you come to Hong Kong?"

Qin Shaonan, "Yeah, don’t hang up, I’m heading over now."

Qiao Qiao, "My phone credit is running low."

Qin Shaonan, "I’ll call you back."

He hung up the phone and dialed again, worried it might again be a service area issue or temporarily unreachable notice. Luckily it wasn’t. After two rings, the call connected, and he heard her sweet voice once more.

Qin Shaonan got in the car, closed the door, holding the phone in one hand while driving with the other, "Where were you last night?"

Qiao Qiao furrowed her eyebrows, recalling last night, "Just stayed here where Grandma used to live, came over in the evening, and slept one night."

Qin Shaonan, "..."

Things are a bit weird.

He drove at high speed straight to the place Qiao Qiao mentioned.

Old building with tube-like corridors, quite dilapidated. The surroundings were poor, with the air carrying the scent of sewage.

After searching for a while, he found the building Qiao Qiao mentioned, entered the dark building entrance, glanced at the stairs, and went directly to the third floor.

As he walked, he observed, the walls were covered with advertisement posters, as well as ads and phone numbers written with pens in various colors.

Arriving on the third floor, he glanced at the east unit. The door had a big red "fortune" character pasted upside down, along with couplets.

They had been posted for too long and looked a bit worn.

He walked over, raised his hand, and knocked on the door.

Upon hearing the knock, Qiao Qiao quickly opened the door and saw Qin Shaonan standing there.

Qin Shaonan looked down at Qiao Qiao, pulled her tightly into his arms, his large hand continuously stroking her hair.
