Guo Jiumin calls Xia Chuyi, hinting he knows something about her future and implying a desire for further contact. Xia Chuyi initially tries to deflect his veiled threats, but Guo Jiumin presses, suggesting a meeting. Xia Chuyi, realizing Guo Jiumin's suspicions, agrees to meet him under the guise of seeing a movie, preparing for a confrontation.

After concluding her conversation with Guo Jiumin, Xia Chuyi ended the call.

Her expression turned exceptionally stern once the phone was down.

Xia Chuyi genuinely possessed no knowledge regarding Guo Jiumin's background.

Yet, Guo Jiumin appeared to be remarkably well-informed about her own past.

In the present circumstances, even with the partial revelations from Guo Jiumin, it still felt as though Xia Chuyi was exposed while Guo Jiumin remained concealed.

At this point, Xia Chuyi had completely recovered from the initial shock of the 'dire news' concerning her husband.

Xia Chuyi contemplated deeply, analyzing the situation: both recent phone calls seemed suspiciously coincidental.

The first call, though originating from the camp, still...

Now that Xia Chuyi had regained her composure, a closer reflection made her question if the initial call from the camp was somewhat out of the blue.

While she was unaware of the specific mission Huo Shiqian was undertaking during this deployment.

The fact that Huo Shiqian had omitted mentioning it implied significant confidentiality surrounding the mission.

If such a mission were to truly fail, how could the camp then casually make a phone call to inform her?

Furthermore, the caller only stated that Xiao Wang had departed to seek someone out.

And the outcome remained uncertain at the time.

Since a definitive result had not yet been reached, why would the camp initiate a call?

This line of reasoning simply didn't add up!

Then, shortly after that call concluded, Guo Jiumin contacted her to arrange a meeting.

Concerning this development, Xia Chuyi found it difficult to believe these two calls were unconnected.

Initially, Xia Chuyi had anticipated that Guo Jiumin might reach out to her as she was preparing to watch a movie.

However, to her surprise, he directly called to schedule an appointment.

It was evident that the other party felt emboldened at this moment, likely due to possessing some form of leverage.

Considering the possibility that Guo Jiumin might be privy to her secrets, she felt it was indeed necessary to meet with him.

She needed to ascertain what kind of advantageous position Guo Jiumin held. Could it possibly be linked to Huo Shiqian?

And what was Guo Jiumin's ultimate objective in orchestrating these events?

Having processed all these thoughts, Xia Chuyi checked on her cherished son and, after bidding farewell to her mother, prepared to depart.

However, before heading to the cinema, Xia Chuyi made a call to "Youwei".

Presently, the main branch of "Youwei" in Capital City was under the management of Huang Xiaoyun.

When Xia Chuyi placed her call, Huang Xiaoyun was occupied, and it was Xia Pan, who was eagerly awaiting Xia Chuyi to take them to the movies, that answered the phone.

"Sister, are you coming to pick us up?" Xia Pan inquired with palpable excitement upon realizing it was Xia Chuyi on the line. "We're all waiting for you at home!"

Hearing this, Xia Chuyi felt a pang of guilt and responded, "Panpan, I apologize, something unexpected has come up, and we'll have to postpone the movie for now."

This planned movie outing had already been rescheduled once by Xia Chuyi.

Thus, upon hearing Xia Chuyi's announcement, Xia Pan on the other end of the line sounded noticeably disappointed, saying, "It's alright, Sister. You take care of your matters first."

"Besides, Sister Qianqian and Sister Xing Mang are also preoccupied with the franchise preparations," Xia Pan added, casting a glance at the visibly busy Huang Xiaoyun in the background. "Sister Xiao Yun is quite busy too; we can go another time."

Hearing Xia Pan's understanding response, Xia Chuyi let out a sigh.
