After learning that something had happened to Qi Xiang, Ye Nan found an excuse to slip away from the others and quietly left the camp.
Half an hour later, Ye Nan took out another special personal terminal from her storage space and sent a message.
Before long, someone contacted her.
It was the old Family Head of the Qee Family, Qee Lianshan, who had retired to work behind the scenes for many years.
Ye Nan froze, not expecting the old patriarch himself to be the one contacting her this time.
She bit her lip, took a deep breath, and answered the call. "Grandpa..."
"I heard something happened to Qi Xiang." Qee Lianshan cut her off, his aged face stern and impersonal. "What's going on? Didn't I tell you to secure those things? Was it your mother..."
"It wasn't." Ye Nan was already deeply unsettled. Hearing the old patriarch mention her mother, Ye Xin, she forced herself to focus, straightened her spine, and denied it flatly. "She doesn't know about this."
