Quick Transmigration: The Charismatic Woman Uses Her Stunning Beauty to Complete Missions
Chapter 76 The Drama Queen Sister in the Rebirth Era (31)
"Li Jingze, do you believe me?" Shen Chumo suddenly asked.
Li Jingze was taken aback. He still had some doubts about Shen Chumo's identity because Shen Chumo's appearance tonight was too coincidental. His intuition from his long service in the military made him feel that something was wrong.
But when asked what the problem was, Li Jingze couldn't pinpoint it. Shen Chumo's explanation was perfect; she had even investigated Wu Leiming and given him that lead.
Besides, it was Shen Chumo who saved him tonight. If Shen Chumo and Huo Fei were in cahoots, she wouldn't have needed to save him at all.
Li Jingze was torn between his thoughts and his inner thoughts. He looked at Shen Chumo, whose stunningly beautiful face was still breathtaking even in the darkness. Her gaze towards him was so gentle, as if it could melt away all hardness.
Li Jingze took a deep breath, slowly stood up, and nodded. "I believe you."
No one knows how important those words are to Li Jingze right now.
Shen Chumo breathed a slight sigh of relief, a hint of satisfaction flashing in her eyes.
“Very well, since you trust me, then I’ll tell you, besides your father’s friend who can help provide evidence, there is another person who might also be able to help you.”
"Who?"
"Old Master Huo."
Li Jingze's pupils widened slightly. Old Master Huo was Huo Fei's biological father. Why would he help him?
Shen Chumo said in a deep voice, "I know you have some doubts, but Old Master Huo really doesn't know what Huo Fei did. As a founding father, Old Master Huo has always been concerned about the country. He is an upright person. Huo Fei did such a treasonous thing, and Old Master Huo will not protect him."
In the original novel, when Huo Yunhan was investigating the truth, he learned that his father was behind it all and wanted to stop the investigation. However, Old Master Huo stood up and told Huo Yunhan that he must uncover the truth. In the end, Old Master Huo personally sent Huo Fei to prison.
Li Jingze fell into deep thought, recalling Old Master Huo's character, which was indeed as Shen Chumo had said—upright and incorruptible.
Shen Chumo continued, "You know my relationship with the Huo family. In a few days, I will find an excuse to meet with Old Master Huo outside. After I leave, you can take the opportunity to sneak in and talk to Old Master Huo. At that time, if you think he can be trusted, then give him the evidence."
Li Jingze nodded slightly and said in a hoarse voice, "Okay, let's do it that way."
Shen Chumo smiled. "It's almost dawn, I should go back. I'll send you the time and place, trust your own judgment."
Li Jingze's gaze was deep as he whispered, "Shen Chumo, thank you."
Shen Chumo chuckled: "Well, you're my landlord, after all. I'm quite satisfied with that office."
Li Jingze smiled and said, "Once this is all over, I'll transfer that office to you as a token of my gratitude." Then, Li Jingze frowned. "But can your Special Service Department accept it?"
It wouldn't be good if we got punished.
Shen Chumo raised an eyebrow and said, "You can transfer it to my second sister-in-law, but you'd better be careful that my second brother doesn't question you."
"That's all for now, I'm leaving." Shen Chumo waved and turned to leave, but suddenly she stopped.
He turned to Li Jingze and said, "By the way, you should get your shoulder and hand wounds bandaged and disinfected, otherwise the nerves will get infected and rot, and you won't be able to hold a gun anymore."
Li Jingze watched Shen Chumo's retreating figure, a smile unconsciously spreading across his face. This was the first genuine smile he had shown since his father's accident.
...
A few days later, Shen Chumo invited Old Master Huo to meet at a quiet teahouse under the pretext of visiting an elder. Old Master Huo already felt indebted to Shen Chumo because of Huo Yunhan's matter, so he readily agreed.
Shen Chumo arrived at the teahouse ahead of time. After entering, a woman suddenly bumped into her from behind.
Shen Chumo frowned and turned around, only to see a woman in a light blue dress standing behind her. The woman's eyes were filled with amazement and disbelief as she looked at her.
Shen Chumo frowned and said, "Miss, please be careful when you walk!"
Hearing her voice, the woman snapped back to her senses, a hint of embarrassment on her face. She quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..." As she spoke, she couldn't help but scrutinize Shen Chumo, her eyes filled with curiosity and doubt.
Shen Chumo felt a little uncomfortable under her gaze and was about to leave when she heard the woman mutter, "This... this is that country bumpkin Shen Chumo? There must be some mistake, how can she be so beautiful..."
Upon hearing this, Shen Chumo was stunned. She hadn't expected this woman to know her, and judging from her expression, it seemed she had only heard her name but had never actually met her.
Seeing that Shen Chumo didn't react, the woman assumed she hadn't heard her and asked directly, "Is your name Shen Chumo?"
Shen Chumo raised an eyebrow and asked in return, "Isn't it basic etiquette to state your own name before asking someone else's name?"
The woman choked, hooked a strand of hair behind her ear with her fingers, and smiled slightly, saying, "I am Huo Yunhan's cousin, my name is Yi Yarong."
Yi Yarong had someone stake out Shen Chumo's house for several days and finally got the news that Shen Chumo would be going out alone today. As soon as she received the news, Yi Yarong rushed to the teahouse without stopping, which led to the scene that began.
Shen Chumo's eyes lit up with interest, and she asked in return, "Huo Yunhan's cousin? So what do you want with me?"
Yi Yarong looked Shen Chumo up and down. Her face, without any makeup, was like a finely carved piece of jade, delicate and lustrous. Her skin was smooth and translucent, as if it could reflect a soft light, as delicate and fragile as a freshly peeled egg.
Her long, jet-black hair cascaded casually over her shoulders, as smooth as silk. Her graceful figure, accentuated by her simple attire, was even more elegant and captivating; every line was perfectly proportioned, as if she were nature's most exquisite masterpiece.
Even just standing there quietly, Shen Chumo exudes an irresistible charm, like a secluded orchid blooming in a valley, fresh, refined, and captivating.
Yi Yarong was increasingly shocked as she looked at Shen Chumo. She had to admit that, as Xin Lei had said, Shen Chumo's beauty and temperament were beyond her reach.
However, Xin Lei was truly shameless, daring to spout such arrogant words that Shen Chumo was not qualified to step into the Huo family's door! This was utterly ridiculous and laughable.
I really don't know how thick her skin is. If you cut it off and weighed it, it would probably weigh several pounds.
As Yi Yarong pondered this, she looked at Shen Chumo with a slightly sympathetic gaze, thinking that Shen Chumo must have suffered a lot of grievances and hardships from encountering an unreasonable and troublesome woman like Xin Lei.
Shen Chumo had no idea that Yi Yarong was already internally ranting and raving about so much.
Yi Yarong also has a role in the original novel. She is a vicious female supporting character who is crazy about Shen Yuan and makes Shen Yuan look bad in front of everyone many times. She is also a woman with cunning.
