Chapter 521: He Projected a High-Wattage Aura

Ding Qing ended the call, then looked at Huo Jinyao and Yang Wenchang.

“Qiao Hong said that he’ll meet us at Charm of Night tonight, at nine pm.”

Because of what had happened yesterday, Qiao Hong now trusted Huo Jinyao less. Currently, he was talking only to Ding Qing.

Huo Jinyao knitted his brows. Why did Qiao Hong always choose to meet with them at night clubs?

“President Huo.” Ding Qing glanced at Huo Jinyao with anxiety, looking as if she so eagerly wanted to solve the problem. “Maybe I should go alone tonight.”

“No, I’ll go with you,” said Huo Jinyao. He looked at Ding Qing. “Is your foot okay?” Yesterday, Ding Qing had stepped on a stone and twisted her ankle. Later in Blue Night, a few rich kids had fought with each other and thrown bottles to the ground. Ding Qing had tripped on one of those bottles, nearly falling again.

Huo Jinyao had reached out to hold her in time, but her foot still instantly swelled.

That could be counted as an occupational injury. As the boss, Huo Jinyao must surely be concerned about his employee’s injury.

“Thank you, President Huo, for asking. My foot is fine. Don’t worry, I’m wearing flats today. I won’t be hindering your operation again.”

Ding Qing said that with a guilty look.

“What happened yesterday had nothing to do with you.” Huo Jinyao believed that it was an accident.

“Your foot is injured. You shouldn’t go tonight. I’ll go with Wenchang.”

“But I’m the one who talked to Qiao Hong,” said Ding Qing. Then she hurriedly continued saying, “President Huo, Qiao Hong talked to me and agreed to meet with me. If he finds out that I’m not there, he might think that we’ve lied to him again. That can cause problems.”

“President Huo, Miss. Ding is right.” Yang Wenchang believed that it was already impossible for Ding Qing to stay out of the matter. “Also, she’s a girl. Facing her, Qiao Hong will easily relax his vigilance.”

“That’s right. I can get in by myself first, then text you when he shows up.”

Ding Qing’s suggestion was a good one. Huo Jinyao thought for a moment and decided to take it. “Alright, you’ll go with us. Don’t rush to ask him for the data. Just comfort him and calm him down first.”

“I get it. I know what to do. President Huo, as long as he shows up, I have the confidence that I can make him talk to us willingly.”

“Good.”

It was a weekend, so no one else was in the office. After making the decision, the three of them started preparing themselves separately.

Huo Jinyao thought about all that had happened recently. He felt that he was missing something crucial.

Charm of Night was a night club. It wasn’t as large as Blue Night.

Charm of Night was in a more remote place than Blue Night. Huo Jinyao understood that Qiao Hong chose that place because he didn’t want to run into the police again.

Similar to yesterday, Ding Qing made contact with Qiao Hong, then entered the club. Huo Jinyao followed behind her.

Ding Qing’s foot was injured, so Huo Jinyao had to hold her again when she was walking upstairs.

“Thank you, President Huo,” said Ding Qing in a low voice. “But you don’t have to do that. I’m worried that Qiao Hong might see us and think we’re in some kind of special relationship.”
