The call was from Xu Jiamu's mother, Han Ruchu.
After she and Lu Jinnian got married, Han Ruchu rarely called her, but when she did, she needed Lu Jinnian to pretend to be Xu Jiamu.
Qiao Anhao walked to the balcony with her phone in hand. She opened the window, and the cool night breeze blew in. She took the call leisurely, and called, "Auntie Xu."
Even though from an outsider's point of view, she was already married to Xu Jiamu and was his wife, so she should call Han Ruchu "Mom", they knew that this was just an agreement. So, other than when she had to act, she always called Han Ruchu "Auntie Xu".
Han Ruchu's voice sounded dignified and serious. She first showed concern for Qiao Anhao. "Qiao Qiao, have you had dinner?"
"Yes," Qiao Anhao replied obediently. She then politely asked, "Auntie Xu, what about you?"
"I'm waiting for your Uncle Xu. We'll eat together when he comes back." Han Ruchu went straight to the point. "Qiao Qiao, next Friday is Xu Jiamu's birthday, do you remember?"
Qiao Anhao knew that it was Xu Jiamu's birthday, but with so many things happening recently, she hadn't paid attention to the date. After Han Ruchu reminded her, she suddenly remembered. "Yea, I remember."
"Xu Jiamu's birthday party definitely has to be held, so I'll have to trouble you to tell him."
Qiao Anhao naturally knew who he was referring to. Actually, she had always been puzzled. Lu Jinnian clearly had a name, so why did she always replace it with an unimportant "he" whenever Han Ruchu mentioned him? It was as though his name was something she hated, and she didn't care to say it out loud.
"I understand." Even though Qiao Anhao was a little unhappy, she still replied obediently.
"Then there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."
"Yea, goodbye, Auntie Xu."
"Goodbye." After Han Ruchu finished speaking, she hung up the phone on her own.
Qiao Anhao listened to the "du du du" sound on her phone. She put it down and stared at the screen for a while. She hesitated whether she should call Lu Jinnian to tell him the news, or send him a message.
But before Qiao Anhao could decide, she suddenly received a new WeChat notification from Zhao Meng.
"Qiao Qiao, I just heard from one of the crew members. She heard from the hotel waiter that Producer Sun was sent to the hospital by his assistant last night, and his injuries were very serious. A lot of things in his room were smashed, and there was a lot of blood on the floor. There were also glass shards and the coffee table was kicked over."
Qiao Anhao stared blankly at the message. Before she could reply, Zhao Meng sent a new voice message. Qiao Anhao tapped on it, and Zhao Meng's voice sounded. "Qiao Qiao, let me tell you, Producer Sun was definitely beaten up by Mr. Lu. Last night, Mr. Lu went to his room to save you, so it's definitely true!"
Just as Qiao Anhao was listening to Zhao Meng's voice message, she received another one. "Also, Qiao Qiao, I just heard someone say that it wasn't Producer Sun who wanted to withdraw his investment, it was Mr. Lu who wanted to kick him out of the cast of 'Alluring Times'. I heard that he argued with the board of directors at Huan Ying Entertainment for an entire day, and in the end, he still insisted on having Producer Sun withdraw his investment!"
