Chapter 127 5 Million
Meanwhile, the white BMW drove into the underground parking garage of a large shopping mall near the apartment.
The surroundings were dark and quiet, with only the emergency indicator light flashing green. The two sisters got out of the car and naturally walked hand in hand towards the elevator to go upstairs to buy ingredients for the hot pot they would have that night.
Suddenly, the sound of wheels rolling came from the entrance of the underground parking garage, clearly indicating that a car had driven in.
The vehicle was quite noisy, and Jiang Qin felt a strange unease rising within her. Following her instincts, she glanced back.
It was an SUV, quite large, and black.
The SUV's headlights were on, quite glaring in the dark. Jiang Qin frowned and quickly looked away.
But the strange feeling in her heart did not lessen when she looked away; on the contrary, it intensified for some reason.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Jiang Qin glance towards the entrance, Su Lejia also glanced over curiously.
Then his gaze fell on the incoming car, his eyes widened, and the envy on his face was obvious.
"Wow, no wonder he's Master Jing! Isn't that a Range Rover? It's my little chef's dream car. Give him one and he'll dream about it until he wakes up, and if he's awake, he'll be so happy he won't be able to sleep!"
As they were talking, the Range Rover drove into the parking space.
Before she could say anything more, Jiang Qin grabbed Su Lejia's hand and quickened her pace toward the elevator.
"Hey, what's wrong?"
Jiang Qin didn't know how to put it, "It just feels a little strange."
"Although it's Saturday, Lele, do you think there's a high chance we'll go shopping at this time?"
Moreover, they drove an SUV and came to "pick up goods" around 2 PM.
Hearing this, Su Lejia became more wary. "That makes sense. Someone who can afford a million-dollar luxury car probably wouldn't be out shopping at the supermarket at this hour, right?"
Jiang Qin gave an affirmative answer: "Yes, the Huo family's garage is full of cars that cost at least a million. They leave grocery shopping and other errands to the housekeeper."
"Moreover, when traveling normally, we usually travel in sedans or minivans, as off-road vehicles are not as comfortable as those, unless we are going out for fun."
Upon hearing this, Su Lejia's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly pressed the button.
Just then, they heard several people getting out of a car outside, but no one said a word.
However, because the entire garage was too quiet, even though no one said anything, the two sisters were very keen to hear the footsteps of at least four people getting out of the car before the elevator doors were completely closed.
The sounds were rather heavy, not like those of a young child.
Some safety tips for women when going out that I had previously seen on short video platforms flashed before my eyes.
Su Lejia felt a chill run down her spine. Fortunately, just then, the elevator doors closed successfully and began to ascend.
At that moment, Jiang Qin became very certain that the group of people had come for her.
As it turns out, Jiang Qin's intuition was exceptionally accurate.
In the underground parking garage, the five bodyguards sent by Horst walked toward the elevator.
Meanwhile, another bodyguard entered through the main entrance of the shopping mall.
Just now, the six bodyguards that Jiang Qin had personally selected received a mission from Huo Sili.
Tell them to track the route of a white BMW, and once they find it, to follow it to Ms. Jiang.
As for what he did in the past, Mr. Huo did not say.
Just tell them to keep their distance and not disturb the other person, but also not to lose them.
However, we didn't lose them, but it seems...
"I told you to keep your distance, Miss Jiang must have noticed just now and turned around to look over."
The most capable of the five, and the undisputed leader among the company's bodyguards, patted the man who had just been the driver beside him.
The other person scratched their head. "I'm sorry, bro, but... it shouldn't have been discovered so quickly, right?"
The man was somewhat unconvinced about this—what could he possibly discover from just one car?
After all, this is Kyoto, and while such luxury cars aren't everywhere in Kyoto.
But the probability of seeing it is still quite high, so isn't that normal?
However, as soon as he finished speaking, someone else patted his shoulder hard on the other side.
The other person said earnestly, "You're single, right, bro? Don't underestimate a woman's intuition. You have no idea how strong a woman's sixth sense can be! And how terrifying it can be when it's strong!"
"Ming-ge is right. Mr. Huo specifically instructed that we not to disturb Miss Jiang. I guess the couple is having a fight."
Another slightly older man spoke up, "Successful people like President Huo have a strong desire for control, so should we stop following them for now? If we do, we might really scare Miss Jiang, and then it will be even harder to explain ourselves."
The group exchanged glances and finally nodded.
"That's true. The supermarket's surveillance system is very thorough. By checking each area, we can find out where Miss Jiang is."
The lead bodyguard said, "Besides, didn't Lao Tao go in with him? One person should be enough. We'll be responsible for providing him with information and working together."
Meanwhile, upstairs in the shopping mall, Jiang Qin and Su Lejia walked for a long time, turning and twisting their way from the entrance.
Only when I stopped in the vegetable section and looked back carefully, and saw no one, did I finally breathe a sigh of relief.
“This place is big, so they probably didn’t follow us. But the security here is good, so even if they did follow us, it shouldn’t be a big problem,” Su Lejia said. Of course, the last sentence was to comfort herself.
After all, they are in the open while the other side is in the shadows. If they really follow, no one can say for sure what might happen.
Especially since her best friend is pregnant, whatever happens is obviously terrifying.
Jiang Qin's face had also turned somewhat pale, her nerves were on edge. Although she didn't know if it was because of her wishful thinking, she could no longer feel that intense sensation from before. But at this moment, reason told her...
She had to seek help from outside.
Jiang Qin pulled Su Lejia to the vicinity of the supermarket service center, but of course, not to seek help there.
Ordinary people have limited abilities, so it's best to leave professional tasks to professionals.
Fortunately, the bodyguards the old lady gave her were very professional. After a phone call, in less than ten minutes, the bodyguards she had met at the villa appeared beside Jiang Qin.
Su Lejia's eyes turned into hearts as she looked at the several handsome men walking towards her.
Then, unable to contain himself, he exclaimed in a breathy voice, "My God, baby, these, these, these women have such hot bodies!"
Jiang Qin smiled helplessly, "Alright, tone down that look, Zhou Junxuan will get really jealous if he sees it."
"Okay." Su Lejia stopped, her heart finally settling down.
Looking at the strong biceps of the several handsome men in front of her, she finally felt at ease and dragged her best friend along to pick out vegetables.
Jiang Qin's worries did not subside, and while picking out vegetables, her thoughts couldn't help but wander.
So who arranged for someone to follow her? And how did they find out her whereabouts?
Her car, Lele's car, came from the hospital. Does that mean the other party knew she went to the hospital?
Hospital……
Jiang Qin pursed her pink lips and frowned.
Meanwhile, at the hospital.
He Xu wiped away cold sweat as he jogged to the outside of the hospital's inpatient ward.
Upon arrival, I stopped and peered into the ward through the glass frame on the door.
Huo Sili was standing next to the hospital bed, on which lay Li Xueqian, who had changed into a hospital gown, and Li Xueqian's assistant, Yuan Yue, was waiting beside her.
Just then, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, Huo Sili, who was standing next to the ward, suddenly turned around and looked at He Xu through the glass frame.
The door opened, and Horstley gently closed it by pulling the doorknob.
He walked a little further away, into the corridor some distance from the ward, before asking, "How are you?"
He Xu's already tense heart suddenly became even more tense. "No, I couldn't find it. I asked President Huo, and they said they didn't have the authority to check. But I did find President Nan's phone number. I got it from a major partner in Haicheng."
As he spoke, He Xu quickly handed the paper with the phone number written down to Huo Sili with both hands.
"This is President Nan's phone number, or more accurately, the phone number of the eldest son of the Nan family—last year there was a power shift in the Nan family, and the previous 'President Nan' has been promoted to Chairman Nan."
Huo Sili took the phone, pulled out his phone, and dialed the number directly.
A few seconds later, He Xu, who was standing next to Huo Sili, saw Huo Sili take the phone away from his ear and glance at the screen.
The man's face was expressionless, but to He Xu, it instantly terrified him.
What does this mean? Did Mr. Nan hang up on me? Or... is the number disconnected?
That shouldn't be the case. He checked several times, and if the number was invalid, the customer on the other end wouldn't dare give it to him.
The call was simply disconnected... The Nan family of Haicheng, although a wealthy and influential family in Haicheng, is nothing compared to the family in Kyoto.
After Mr. Nan hung up on Mr. Huo, He Xu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
Suddenly, Huo Sili said into the phone, "Good afternoon, Mr. Nan. This is Huo Sili."
Huo Sili, a prominent young master in Beijing's elite circles, is a figure of such stature that he would be treated with great respect in any social circle, despite the existence of a hierarchy among the wealthy.
Therefore, Nan Tinghe was quite surprised to hear Huo Sili introduce himself.
After all, his own grandfather had often used Holmes as a role model for him after he entered the workforce, and he himself truly admired Holmes's achievements in the business world.
But that's all.
After all, people don't visit temples without a reason.
So, what's going on?
Nan Tinghe thought quickly, and then came to the answer almost effortlessly—
Horstley needed his help, and it concerned the hospital.
However, Huo Sili had a close relationship with the eldest son of the Lu family, a renowned medical family in Kyoto.
Therefore, it's unlikely to be due to illness.
That's because of... medical records? Whose medical records does Horst want to check?
The private hospitals under the Nan family place the utmost importance on client privacy.
After thinking all this over in a flash, Nan Tinghe pursed his lips and furrowed his brows into a small mountain.
However, when he tried to dodge the question, Horstley surprised him by getting straight to the point.
"Mr. Nan, let's be frank. I'd like to ask you for a favor—it's not difficult, but I need to check your hospital's surveillance footage. My wife came to your hospital for a checkup today, and I want to know what's wrong with her health and which department she went to."
Nan Tinghe's face stiffened slightly, before Huo Sili could finish speaking.
"Fifty billion. If you agree, the money is yours, and the information is mine. If you're not satisfied with the money, you can ask for more."
