Watching the silver sports car speed by, Xu Renfei teased Qin Zhan beside him, "Are you really this relaxed?"
Qin Zhan’s thin lips curved slightly, "Because she is Bi Xia, isn’t she?" Besides, he also needed to verify his own suspicions, and...
"Take care of Little Nine for me recently, I need to return to Beijing."
"Hmm?" Xu Renfei looked at Qin Zhan, "Why do you suddenly need to go back? Isn’t everything already settled?"
Qin Zhan’s phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, a cold golden gleam flashing past, "Giving a bit of a sweet taste just makes some people restless. If I don’t go back and give them a bit of bitterness, they’ll never know who they need to follow to survive."
"I’ll teach you a free trick," Qin Zhan’s thin lips turned cold, curving up coldly, "For greedy people, making them see but unable to touch is the cruelest thing."
Hearing Qin Zhan’s words, Xu Renfei gave a bitter smile, "You know full well... ha, rest assured, I’ll do my best. Sooner or later, I’ll seize back everything that belongs to me."
"But, what about Little Nine once you leave?"
"I’ll come back as soon as possible," Qin Zhan said calmly, "Until then, I’m counting on you."
Meanwhile, just as she left Qin Zhan’s sight, Bi Xia called out to 007. Since there was no one else in the car and no need to hide, she blurted out directly, "007, help me check Meng Chi’s information and his current location, and whether it’s safe."
[Sure, give me three seconds.]
Freed from the constant suppression of her spiritual power, 007 became lively. Upon hearing Bi Xia’s words, the formatted little fingers danced across the virtual keyboard. Then, with a wave of its hand, all the data on its small computer was transmitted to the crystal electronic board floating in the air.
[Your Highness, the investigation is complete. Meng Chi’s family situation is even messier than the Bi Family, my goodness!]
Ignoring 007’s complaints, Bi Xia said, "What’s the use of sending it in front of my eyes? I’m driving!"
[Oh, I forgot, my bad!] 007 laughed dryly, [I’ll just tell you directly then.]
It turns out Meng Chi’s identity isn’t simple. He’s a young master of the renowned Meng Group in Qing City, with his father being the chairman of the Meng Group, a prominent figure in Qing City.
Logically speaking, with such a status, Meng Chi should be influential in Qing City. Unfortunately, first, Meng Chi is a low-profile person, rarely revealing his identity outside. Secondly, Meng Chi’s father, Meng Liangxian, isn’t a decent person.
Outside, Meng Liangxian found a mistress, and supposedly, she’s his pure-hearted first love. They met at a gathering, rekindled old flames, and after some drinks, ’overwhelmed by the alcohol,’ they unintentionally booked a hotel room, sparking a rendezvous on the bed.
Gradually, Meng Liangxian spent years away from home. Meng Chi’s mother found out about Meng Liangxian and the mistress, eventually developing depression. Finally, the mistress got pregnant, giving birth to a son for Meng Liangxian. When she couldn’t hold back anymore two years later, she brought her son over, leading to Meng Chi’s mother committing suicide after being unable to cope.
[Following a deeper investigation by the system, it turns out the mistress and Meng Chi’s mother fought. The mistress accidentally picked up a fruit knife from the table and stabbed Meng Chi’s mother in the abdomen. Afraid of prison, Meng Liangxian moved Meng Chi’s mother to the bathroom tub, making it look like suicide.]
[So, it’s obvious that this case has been pending as a suicide until now.]
"No wonder Meng Chi doesn’t want to talk about family matters. So it’s - Meng Chi must be suspicious about it too."
[Indeed, Meng Chi has been investigating this, but his efforts have been weak, getting discovered by the mistress halfway through. So the mistress and Meng Liangxian simply tied Meng Chi up, and now he’s kept in the basement of the mistress’s suburban villa.] This update is available on novel·fire.net
[By the way, I forgot to mention, Meng Chi and Chu Kuang are cousins.]
"What?" Bi Xia frowned, "What nonsense?"
[Meng Chi’s mother is Chu Kuang’s aunt, Chu Kuang’s father is Meng Chi’s mother’s brother. Meng Liangxian’s Meng Group reached its current status partly due to the Chu Family. That’s why the mistress hadn’t dared to touch Meng Chi.]
"So how come she dares now?"
[The mistress’s family connections lead into criminal circles. These past two years, she found backdoor access to the underworld, rising swiftly.]
"Ha," Bi Xia’s starry eyes turned icy, "I see!"
Impressive, amazing, this just got even more interesting!
