Su Xue couldn't help but stare blankly at Number Five's sudden and serious expression. She didn't understand why a casual mention of the girl from the other side of the ocean would cause such a change in Number Five's expression. However, her first impression of Number Five, as well as her relationship with Lin Feng, made her subconsciously trust him. She still chose to tell him everything that had happened between last night and this morning.
She included the conversation she had with a certain someone last night.
She also talked about how she hid behind the door to investigate a certain someone's actions in the bedroom.
She also talked about the information she learned from a certain someone this morning. She also talked about how she kept calling him but no one answered her calls.
Su Xue told him everything in detail from start to finish in one breath. In the end, she let out a long sigh of relief and patted her chest.
"That's basically the situation."
Then, she quietly sized up Number Five in front of her. After he listened to her quietly and patiently, he could not help but frown a little. A hint of worry flashed in his eyes.
"Is that so?"
"Last night, Lin Feng … also contacted Bao Zi."
Even though he was just mumbling softly, the two of them were too close to each other, so Su Xue effortlessly heard his words. She also keenly grasped the most important word.
'Also?'
Su Xue could vaguely sense that there seemed to be something she did not know. She could not help but ask a question.
"Siqiao, could it be that you also …"
Number Five seemed to hesitate for a moment, but in the end, he still nodded and explained, "Yes, last night … I also tried to contact Bao Zi."
Su Xue could roughly guess the ending of the situation. "Then you also …"
Number Five nodded again, and the slight frown on his face became even more pronounced.
"Yes."
"Same as you. I called him, but no one answered."
As he spoke, he seemed to be quickly weighing the pros and cons. Number Five's gaze landed on Su Xue, and he seriously and solemnly reminded her, "Xue, if it's possible … don't tell Lin Feng that the call didn't go through. He only sent a text yesterday, right?"
Su Xue nodded, and then she felt a little lost.
"Why?"
Although she herself had been hesitant about whether it was appropriate to tell Lin Feng the truth, Number Five's tone and attitude were unquestionably firm. It was as if … as if … there were more uncontrollable and bad things hidden behind this situation.
Number Five hesitated in response to Su Xue's question. He pursed his lips and shook his head.
"It's complicated to explain."
"In any case … you're doing this for Lin Feng's sake, right? Then please keep this a secret from him for now, because there are some things … that still need to be confirmed."
Further confirmation?
The more Su Xue listened, the more confused she became. Not only did her doubts not disappear, they only grew.
Confirm what?
Are there any more complicated and deeper factors in the situation?
What does it have to do with Lin Feng?
However, before she could ask again, at the end of the corridor not far away, the door to the office that Number Five had just walked out of was pushed open again. Two more men walked out, seemingly talking.
Su Xue subconsciously looked up.
She was the first to recognize the two men. One of them was dressed in formal attire, which made her eyes light up. It was the Vice President of the Shanghai Telecommunications Association, Chu Fangnan.
As for the one beside Vice President Chu …
When Su Xue's gaze turned to the man beside Chu Fangnan, her eyes could not help but widen. Her heart rate increased again.
Oh oh oh!!
Isn't that … isn't that … that person?!!
Number Five also turned around and saw his fiancé walking out of the door with Chu Fangnan. He nodded slightly in greeting. "Are you done?"
"Mhm." Number One simply nodded and walked over. His gaze lingered on his fiancée for a moment before falling on Su Xue. His eyebrows slightly raised, and a smile appeared on his face. "Is this Lin Feng's Sister Xue? Great Streamer Su, I've heard a lot about you. "
As he spoke, he took the initiative to extend his hand to Su Xue.
At this moment, Su Xue was overwhelmed by the unexpected favor. She hurriedly extended her hand to shake his. At the same time, she did not know how to phrase her words.
"You flatter me! You're just a small streamer! I've heard a lot about you, really! "
Number One laughed when he heard this and waved his hand with a relaxed expression.
"You're too humble, Streamer Su."
"Xiao Wu and I often watch your streams. I can also be considered a fan of yours."
You could say that.
Today, if there were no other unexpected events, then this morning would be the happiest morning that Su Xue had experienced in the past year.
Listen!
Number One called her "Great Streamer Su"!
And … he even said he was her fan?!
If she could, she would've recorded that conversation and broadcast it on the internet, letting every League of Legends player in the world listen to it. To be able to make a legendary player on the Chinese server, and even the entire world, become her fan … there was no one else in the streamer circle other than her!
Chu Fangnan also walked over. When he saw Su Xue, he was a bit surprised. "Ah Xue, you're here too?"
Su Xue snapped out of her daze and hurriedly greeted Vice Chairman Chu. "I came over this morning to hand in some documents to expedite the visa. It's already done."
Chu Fangnan nodded. "Oh, I was wondering … You're probably leaving with us. It'll only take two days."
At the same time, Number One turned to look at his fiancée.
"What were you guys talking about?"
Number Five shook her head. She looked at Chu Fangnan and Su Xue, who were talking to each other. "Just now, Xue said … she also called Steamed Bun this morning, but he didn't pick up."
As she spoke, she paused for a moment and added, "I'm sorry.
"And …"
"She said that Lin Feng also took the initiative to contact Steamed Bun last night, but he also didn't reply."
Number One fell silent for a moment. Then he slowly said, "This isn't a good time."
There was no head or tail to his words, but Number Five understood. So, she also showed a slightly helpless expression. "Yes … this is not a good time. I just hope … the situation is not as bad as we think it is."
As she spoke, a worried look flashed in her eyes again.
Number One turned his head and looked at Chu Fangnan, who had just finished his conversation with Su Xue.
"Nan, about what I just told you … please hurry."
Chu Fangnan nodded without hesitation.
"Don't worry. I'll contact the people in England right now."
Number One nodded slightly. "Thank you."
The atmosphere suddenly became quiet. Su Xue, who was sitting next to Chu Fangnan, sensed something was amiss. Even though she was just chatting with Chu Fangnan, she was able to hear bits and pieces of the conversation between the two legends of the gaming circle.
Add to that the content of her conversation with Number Five, as well as his reaction to certain things …
It was all linked together.
"That …"
A voice broke the silence. Su Xue couldn't help but look at Number Five.
"Qiao Qiao, what … is going on?"
