Shortly after the assistant left, Huo Yaozong was brought in to see Pei Ya.
Pei Ya leaned against the desk, arms crossed, with eyebrows raised slightly: "What do you want with me?"
Huo Yaozong, without beating around the bush and with a mysterious look, asked: "Before I tell you, let me ask, you have a good relationship with Qiao Yun, right?"
Pei Ya narrowed his eyes, his gaze instantly becoming incredibly sharp.
This cautious demeanor reassured Huo Yaozong a lot. It seemed that Pei Ya really cared about Qiao Yun; his move was indeed not misplayed.
Pei Ya spoke with a hostile tone: "Why are you asking this?"
Huo Yaozong stopped probing and directly stated his purpose: "Do you know she has disappeared?"
Pei Ya remained silent, his eyes growing more terrifying, like a dagger, wishing to shred the person in front of him to pieces.
Huo Yaozong felt a bit uneasy under that gaze, couldn't help but step back a few steps, "Don't you know?"
Pei Ya still didn't speak.
