Chapter 289: Chapter 290: More Loss Than Gain (1)_1

Jing Haohao, who had never set foot in a police station before, was already a bundle of nerves. She originally thought that once she got arrested, they would never let her go again. However, unexpectedly, the police told her that she could leave if she found a guarantor.

Jing Haohao, holding her phone, slowly scanned the contact list on her phone.

Most of the contacts were people from the entertainnt industry with whom she had collaborated in the past. The only person closest to her, Shen Liangnian, had now completely distanced himself from her.

After hesitating for a long ti, Jing Haohao finally rested her finger on Liang Chen’s phone number.

Besides Shen Liangnian, she couldn’t think of another person better suited to be her guarantor than Liang Chen.

But, he was currently in Shanghai… even if she made a phone call, he probably wouldn’t be able to co back in ti, would he…

Jing Haohao paused for a mont, unsure whether to call soone else to vouch for her, and accidentally dialed a number.

…

Liang Chen was in a eting in Shanghai at that mont.

Shanghai’s winter was much warr than Jiangshan City, and the city’s greenery was still lush.

However, it also had a cold dampness unlike the north that seeped into one’s bones.

In a large conference room, the four floor-standing air conditioners were blowing warm air.

Liang Chen brought his own team to urgently negotiate the terms and conditions of an acquisition with a company in Shanghai.

Just as Liang Chen was about to lay down his own terms, the phone in his pocket suddenly vibrated.

It was his private phone, only a handful of people knew this number. It was specifically for family use.

So, Liang Chen looked up, indicated his apologies to those present, took out his phone, saw the incoming call from Jing Haohao, and imdiately said to everyone in the conference room without hesitation, “Excuse , I need to step out to take a call.”

After saying this, Liang Chen hurriedly exited the conference room, found a quiet stairwell with few people, and answered the call.

Standing by the window of the staircase with cars passing by the street below, Liang Chen instinctively asked, “Haohao?”

They had taken so long to pick up and it was already three in the afternoon. Jing Haohao assud he must be busy and felt guilty about it. “Did I interrupt you?” she asked.

“No.”

Jing Haohao rarely initiated calls to Liang Chen, and even when she did, she usually just asked for his permission to go sowhere. Now that he was not in Jiangshan City, even if she went out, she wouldn’t need to tell him. Could sothing have happened? Without any hesitation, Liang Chen continued, “What’s wrong? Is everything okay?”

“I…” Jing Haohao muttered, and suddenly fell silent.

Liang Chen couldn’t see her expression over the phone, and hearing her stutter made him anxious, “Haohao, what’s going on?”

Hearing Liang Chen’s urgent voice, Jing Haohao couldn’t figure out why but suddenly felt very wronged. She hadn’t cried when she ran into Qiao Wennuan and saw that shocking scene. But now, her eyes were inexplicably filling up with tears, holding the phone, desperately holding back her tears, she was at a loss for words.

The more she was like that, the more anxious Liang Chen beca, “Haohao? Haohao? Are you still there?”
