Chapter 704: Father's New News

After Aunt Du made dinner, she glanced at the wall clock on the wall.

"Eh, that's it, why hasn't Eric come back yet?" she asked curiously.

Qiao Xihe, who was nesting on the sofa watching TV, raised her head, looked at the time, and said, "Maybe the company is working overtime......" She picked up her mobile phone and looked at it, she didn't receive any news, she wanted to send a message to ask, but found that the message couldn't be sent, it seems that Eric hasn't helped her with the phone bill, so she said to Aunt Du: "You sent a message to ask Erik?"

"Good. Aunt Du nodded, wiped her hands, and took out her mobile phone to send a text message.

After a while, there was a reply from Eric's side.

Aunt Du said: "It's really overtime, tell us to eat first." Miss Qiao, come, let's eat. ”

"Okay, I'm here. Qiao Xihe came to the table, "Aunt Du, why don't you leave some food for Eric? ”

"Well, good. "Aunt Du went to get the lunch box and divided some meals.

Qiao Xihe took a bite of Kung Pao chicken, and the sweet and sour taste was just right for her appetite. I thought that I would lose my appetite when I was pregnant, or vomit after eating or something, but under careful care, I was quite comfortable and had no uncomfortable reactions.

She touched her belly and hoped that the little guy would come into the world safely.

Aunt Du replied to Eric with a text message and put her phone aside. She is still using an elderly machine, and she can only make phone calls and text messages, and for her, the mobile phone has at most a function to check the time and set an alarm clock, which is enough.

Halfway through the meal, Aunt Du's mobile phone rang.

Qiao Xihe glanced at it and didn't pay attention to it.

"At this time, who will call me?" Aunt Du said curiously, picking up her mobile phone and seeing that it was an unfamiliar number.

Recently, she has frequently received fraudulent advertising calls, so she looked at a string of numbers that looked a bit like this type of number, so she hung up the phone directly.

"Don't these fraudsters have to eat and rest at night, and they call after this order, but they are really dedicated...... After dinner, I'm going to report this number, and it's better that the police can catch them and have fewer victims. She said as she picked up the dishes and chopsticks again.

Qiao Xihe smiled: "Aunt Du is a good person." ”

"Well, it's a casual thing. Aunt Du laughed and was about to continue eating, but was interrupted by the ringtone of her mobile phone, "This meal is restless." ”

She picked up her phone, and it was the same number again.

"Why did you do it, and you still called? It seems that I have to scold these scams well!" she pressed the answer button, and then scolded directly: "You shameless fraudsters, do you still have no humanity? I know every day that I deceive innocent people, and the family that you deceive is going to be ruined, do you know?"

"......" was silent on the other end of the phone.

Aunt Du was not puzzled, and continued to scold: "You guys, wait for the police to arrest you and send you to prison! You really need the police to educate and educate you, otherwise, you don't know when you will be harmed!"

......The person on the other end of the phone hesitated for a few seconds and asked tremblingly, "That...... Excuse me...... You, are you Aunt Du?"

"What are you doing?" Aunt Du is used to hearing the beginning of a scam call, "I know what you're going to say, needless to say, I know you're a liar!"

"No, no, no, I'm not a liar......" the man wanted to cry without tears, "I'm an assistant at Taiyang Law Firm, and our lawyer asked me to contact Miss Qiao......"

"What, what?" Aunt Du was stunned.

The man said, "Aunt Du, I'm really not a liar! Our lawyer wanted to contact Miss Qiao, but we couldn't get in touch." And your number was accidentally lost, I finally found it, so I'll contact you quickly......"

"Uh......" Aunt Du knew that she was probably the wrong weirdo, and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, there have been too many scam calls recently, and I'm almost annoyed by being harassed...... I'll call Miss Qiao, you wait. ”

"Okay, thanks. The assistant said politely.

Aunt Du hurriedly handed the mobile phone to Qiao Xihe, who had already cast a puzzled look, "Miss Qiao, it's the lawyer's assistant who called." ”

"Hmm. Qiao Xihe took the phone, "Hello, I'm Qiao Xihe." ”

"Miss Qiao, I've finally got in touch with you!" the assistant let out a long sigh of relief, "The lawyer has something important to tell you, but he's having a video conference right now, so please wait a minute." ”

Qiao Xihe's curiosity became even heavier, and he asked, "What is it, is it convenient to reveal something?"

The assistant hesitated for a moment and said, "It's about your father, Mr. Qiao, but the lawyer only knows the specific situation." ”

Qiao Xihe's heart skipped a heavy beat, "My father?"

"Well, yes. The assistant said with certainty.

Qiao Xihe hurriedly asked, "When is the lawyer available?"

"Estimated...... There's still half an hour or so, right?" The assistant said, "Otherwise, we can already be contacted anyway, and when the lawyer's video conference is over, I ask him to call you immediately?"

"Okay, please call me as soon as possible. Qiao Xihe said, his tone revealing a bit of urgency.

The assistant sensed it a little and immediately agreed, "It will definitely be, Miss Qiao." ”

Qiao Xihe put down his phone, sighed lightly, and his heart fluttered.

Since the last time I learned that my father was under certain investigations, I asked for information, and the reply was always the same: "I am under investigation, it is not convenient to disclose details, and I will not accept requests for visitation".

She was anxious, but there was nothing she could do, and Eric couldn't find any useful news, so she could only wait.

Now, there must be some eyebrows and information that can be revealed about the father's investigation, but what is it?

Is it good or bad?

Qiao Xihe's heart hurt even more.

Suddenly, she remembered something, she went to get her mobile phone, but suddenly remembered that the mobile phone was down in arrears, and she couldn't connect to the Internet at all, she went to take out her laptop again, and after turning it on, she looked at the small icon in the lower right corner - Eric hadn't paid the Internet bill yet.

In other words, she doesn't have any way to find out about her father now?

Qiao Xihe sat on the sofa dejectedly, blaming himself for not telling Eric to pay the phone bill and Internet bill?

"Miss Qiao, what's wrong with you?" Aunt Du asked with concern when she saw her anxious expression and slightly red eyes.

Qiao Xihe didn't bother to pay attention to her, turned around and took out the remote control from the crack in the sofa, and flipped from the number key 1 to the last TV station.

Again, there is no mention of the father anywhere.

Qiao Xihe's shoulders collapsed, and he looked at the old man who was quietly paralyzed on the dining table, this was the last hope, but he could only wait like this......
