Transmigrated as My Best Friend's Ex
Chapter 13: The man over the Phone
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Suddenly he heard a weak sound with a big sobbing and touching tone. It sounded very familiar to him. Wasnât itâ¦the voice of the original ownerâ¦of this body? But looking around the classroom, he didnât see anyone. Then he realized what he was looking for.
It was funny. Li Qinghao wrapped his head with both hands, leaning against the chair. Wasnât the one he was trying to look for was literally the current him?
He rubbed his head. He never believed any transmigration stuff but it was a fact that his soul was now in another personâs body.
âQinghao.â Someone was knocking at the desk.
âYes?â He looked at the shrot-haired girl with his head tilted before him. She was shy and good looking with a pair of big and clear eyes. Maybe because she rarely spoke with boys, she blushed just when speaking to Li Qinghao.
âMy nameâ¦My name is Yang Ziyan.â Yang Ziyan said, âI heard that you have lost your memory. Soâ¦Soâ¦â
âSo?â
âSoâ¦I am commissary in charge of studies now. Do youâ¦Do you need any help?â
Li Qinghao was not familiar with the name but he had impression on her.
Because back in the days when Nancheng Lie and he waited for Li Qinghao, he saw this girl and Li Qinghao were very close and they talked and laughed. Now the girl was shy and embarrassed with pink cheeks. He immediately understood that the girl liked Li Qinghao.
âThank you!â He smiled charmingly at Yang Ziyan, âI will let you know if I do.â
He packed books into his backpack and walked out of the classroom.
The breeze once again blew his shoulder-length hair. The sunshine was dazzling bright. He felt sad because he couldnât accept what he was now.
He took out his phone and played with it. Pictures flashed before his eyes. And finally he dialed a string of numbers.
The phone was picked up quickly, âWho is it?â The deep voice was exceptionally comfortable for Li Qinghao.
âGuess.â He joked.
âIt is expensive to play a game with me.â The man over the phone was obviously patient.
âI can afford it.â Li Qinghao chuckled.
âItâs even more expensive to play a guessing game with me.â
âIt canât be more expensive than my life.â Besides, he had already lost his life.
âNo more than five persons know this phone number in the world.â
âSo am I one of the five?â Li Qinghao smiled.
âI know a young man who acts like you.â The man thought for a while and then continued, âbut you donât sound like him.â
âI donât think you would judge a man by his voice.â At least not the man over the phone.
âYouâ¦â The man on the other side went silent.
âWhen I saved your lover during operation, you promised that you would never turn me down when I need help even at the cost of your life.â Li Qinghao smiled even harder.
âYouâ¦â
âIâm Han Mingxu.â
âImpossible.â
âYou know it.â Li Qinghao was sure that he would believe him.
âWe need to meet.â
âNo. Not now.â
âThe one in Hanâs familyâ¦â
âI am not very clear. But can you tell me if anyone has ever contacted you under my name in these two years?â
âYou know my rules. When I answer a question of someone, I need one answer back. So my first question is, is your name Han Mingxu or not?â
âNo.â Li Qinghao smiled. The man didnât ask who he was. There was a huge difference between âI am Han Mingxuâ and âMy name is Han Mingxuâ. Li Qinghao knew that the man understood him.
âWell then, I will give you an extra answer for free. Nancheng Lie asked me to find the truth of Han Mingxuâs death two years ago.â
âYou didnât find the truth, did you?â
âYoung man, you are looking down upon me.â Although it was a fact.
âYou are suspecting Han Mingxu, arenât you?â Li Qinghao shook his head.
âHun! I never doubted him before today. Because we had ever agreed not to meet each other. So when he and Nancheng Lie came to me two years ago, it was no surprise he didnât recognize me.â
âI have to say this.â
âYou donât have to.â
âNo. I have to.â Looking at the school gate, a familiar man was leaning against a car door. He was a few hundred meters away though, Li Qinghao still felt how hot his stare was.
âIt is my biggest honor to be friends with you. And please find information about Li Ka for me.â He hung up on the phone before the man gave an answer and walked to the man by the car.
