Chapter 340 Telephone Thanks

Chapter 340: Chapter 340 Telephone Thanks

"Thank you, liberation army comrade!" Xia Chuyi said, "Could you please also pass on my thanks to Chief Ou, I’m very grateful to him."

After the liberation army comrade left, Xia Chuyi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Ou Jun returned home to find the security guard approaching him.

"Report, Huo Shiqian, Huo Commander, had called just a moment ago," the guard informed him.

"Huo Shiqian?" Ou Jun frowned slightly, puzzled, "Why would he call me? Did he say why? Was it because of the second son or Miss Lian’er?"

The guard shook his head: "Commander Huo didn’t say, but from his tone, it seemed to be neither, he was looking for you, Commander."

Ou Jun nodded and said, "I understand, I’ll call him back."

Although Huo Shiqian’s military rank was only slightly higher than his own, everyone in the compound knew that Huo Shiqian was no ordinary person, and that sooner or later he would far surpass them all.

For both public and private reasons, he had to return this call.

When the call connected, Ou Jun took the initiative and said, "Regarding Lian’er, she has been grounded at home for a long while, and she hasn’t had the opportunity to cause trouble for your partner in Ling County."

"As for the second son, he hasn’t done anything wrong recently."

There was a pause on the other end of the line, then a voice said, "Ou Jun, I’m not calling to make accusations."

"My partner is now in the Capital City."

"I’m calling to thank you."

"Thank you?" Ou Jun was somewhat surprised.

Huo Shiqian’s deep voice came through again, continuing, "Ou Jun, the college student you saved, Xia Chuyi, is my partner."

"What?" Ou Jun was even more surprised, "Xia Chuyi is your partner?"

"Yes, so thank you," Huo Shiqian continued on the phone, "You know, Ou Cong and I have a good relationship, so for his sake, as long as Lian’er stops wrongly associating herself with me, I won’t trouble her."

Hearing this, Ou Jun sighed, "I understand, Lian’er is somewhat difficult in that respect."

"Good as long as you know," Huo Shiqian said indifferently on the phone.

Ou Jun: "..."

Huo Shiqian: "Anyway, thank you for saving Chuyi."

"I understand, you don’t need to be so polite, I will take care of her for you in the future," Ou Jun said ungraciously.

"Yes, thank you," Huo Shiqian replied unreservedly.

After hanging up the phone, Ou Jun couldn’t help but shake his head.

This call from Huo Shiqian was ostensibly to express his thanks, but in reality, he was asking him to take care of his partner.

But that was fine by Ou Jun as this showed Huo Shiqian genuinely cared for Xia Chuyi.

After the phone call, Ou Jun went to his study to deal with some affairs.

Before long, the door of the study was rudely burst open from outside.

"Brother, I just heard from a guard that Brother Huo called?" The visitor was Ou Family’s second son, Ou Cong.

Ou Jun lifted his eyelids, saw his younger brother with a slicked-back hairdo and wearing sunglasses, looking sloppy, and couldn’t help but frown.

He said sternly, "Ou Cong, where are your manners?"

Ou Cong stood in the doorway, his eyes crinkling like crescent moons, and lightly tapped on the doorpost twice, saying, "Is this better, brother?"

"Is that what I’m concerned about?" Ou Jun looked exasperated.

Ou Cong chuckled and said, "Okay, okay, brother, I got it."

"Just tell me, did Brother Huo call?"

"What did he say? Is he coming back to the Capital City? Did he say he wants to see me?" Ou Cong’s rapid-fire questions showed his evident excitement.

Ou Jun shook his head, calmly responding, "Sorry, your idol has no plans to return to the Capital City; he called to ask me to take care of his partner."
