Chapter 1240: Chapter 1240: Quan Dongting Arrived
When she was on the bus, she checked the tapping device again and found it was malfunctioning. The light was still flashing, but the frequency was off — it was evident that water had gotten in.
If nothing was recorded, her leg injury would be in vain!
Huo Yi knew what she was worried about and immediately reassured her, “Miss Chi, don’t worry. The tapping device is broken, but before it broke, it recorded your conversation with Princess Scarlett, and it should serve as evidence.”
“Phew.” Chi Enen breathed a sigh of relief, her expression relaxed, letting go of his arm, “That’s good, that’s good.”
“Miss Chi, should I take you to the hospital first?” Huo Yi was more concerned about her leg injury. Master Jue had said he would rush back to the country. If Master Jue saw the injury on Miss Chi’s leg, wouldn’t he get furiously angry at him?
Chi Enen, however, was unconcerned and focused on something else, “No need. Have a personal doctor come to the house to check it for me. I want to go back and listen to the recording and organize it a bit. Butler Huo, please take me home first.”
“This…” Huo Yi certainly wanted her to get a comprehensive check-up at the hospital, but seeing Chi Enen’s haggard appearance, he couldn’t bring himself to oppose her, resigning himself, “Alright, Miss Chi, please get on the car first. I’ll arrange a personal doctor for you. But let’s agree first, Miss Chi must let the personal doctor check your leg injury before you get busy.”
Chi Enen sensed his concern, smiled at him and readily agreed, “Okay.”
Only then did Huo Yi relax a bit, assisting Chi Enen into the car and driving towards the villa.
From the city center to the Habsden family’s villa didn’t take long; soon, the car drove into the villa district.
Chi Enen had just gotten out of the car and walked into the two-story white mansion when she suddenly bumped into someone waiting at the entryway for her to return.
“Little Uncle?”
Chi Enen looked towards the man at the entryway with surprise and couldn’t help but call out.
When did Little Uncle arrive?
However, the man who always wore a calm smile no longer had that expression on his deep face, clearly appearing angry, “Enen, what have you been hiding from me these past few days?”
“I…”
“Something this major happened, why didn’t you tell me? Do you still see me as your uncle?” Quan Dongting had never spoken to her in such a serious manner before. This time, he was truly furious, which is why he spoke to her in such a stern tone.
Then he noticed her knee injury. The usual anger in his steady, tea-colored pupils halted, and his intention to harshly reprimand her transformed, “Hass, prepare the car!”
“Yes, Master Gong.” The man standing by, almost blending into the background, immediately went out to prepare the car.
Quan Dongting grabbed Chi Enen’s wrist, angrily saying, “I’m taking you to the hospital!”
Chi Enen finally had the opportunity to speak, pulling on his hand, unwilling to leave, “Little Uncle, I… I have other matters.”
“What matters are more important than the injury on your leg?”
Chi Enen didn’t know how to explain to him, but without her saying, Quan Dongting already figured out the situation. His face, becoming more handsome with age, flickered with deep helplessness, “Is Li Beijue so important? Is he worth you taking such a big risk for?”
If he hadn’t inquired with the Habsden family’s people remaining in Country W, he wouldn’t have known that her car accident was just playing along with the situation, aiming to take the risk to obtain evidence against Scarlett!
And the fundamental reason for all of this was to gain recognition from Li Beijue’s grandfather!
