Resemblance

Su Ting’s demeanor remained unchanged as he calmly responded, “I’m merely discussing my future business plans.”
Zhou Lin’s eyes widened in disbelief, not expecting Su Ting to dismiss the implication.
Gu Dai, with a slight squint in her eyes, directed her gaze at Zhou Lin, “I know you’re acquainted with the leader of Organization X.”
Caught in a dilemma, Zhou Lin’s gaze flickered, torn between speaking out and facing retaliation from the organization or staying silent and risking immediate danger.
Gu Dai offered calmly, “I can arrange for someone to protect you.”
Zhou Lin’s eyes lit up, eagerly asking, “Really?”
Gu Dai nodded affirmatively, “Yes.”
Upon receiving Gu Dai’s assurance, Zhou Lin walked over to his desk, pulled open a drawer, and retrieved a photo, which he then handed to Gu Dai.
The photo, its edges yellowing and the image slightly blurred from age, still faintly revealed the woman’s features.
Zhou Lin identified her, “Her name is Fu Jing, the leader of Organization X. She’s very secretive.”
Gu Dai lifted her eyelids slightly, asking, “How did you get this photo?”
Zhou Lin, a bit embarrassed by the question, muttered, “Curiosity got the better of me years ago, so I had someone investigate and managed to get only this photo.”
Gu Dai nodded, then inquired further, “Do you know where Fu Jing is?”
Zhou Lin nodded vigorously, quickly providing an address.
Gu Dai turned to Su Ting, signaling, “Let’s go.”
Su Ting obediently nodded, “Okay.”
After their departure, Su Ting coldly warned Zhou Lin, “Don’t disclose our visit today to anyone, especially not to Organization X.”
Zhou Lin quickly agreed, “Don’t worry, I won’t.”
Even without Su Ting’s warning, Zhou Lin wouldn’t dare share the information. Betraying Organization X would have severe consequences.
Shuddering at the thought of the organization’s methods against traitors, Zhou Lin anxiously asked, “You mentioned arranging protection for me, does that still stand?”
Su Ting confirmed, “It does.”
With that, he left the office to catch up with Gu Dai.
After Su Ting disappeared, Zhou Lin finally felt a sense of relief, gasping for air and feeling drained. “It’s only been a short while, but Su Ting’s presence has grown even more intimidating. I forgot how to breathe.”
Back on the plane, Gu Dai continued to scrutinize the photo.
Noticing her concern, Su Ting inquired, “Daidai, do you sense something off?”
Gu Dai nodded thoughtfully, then shared, “Fu Jing’s features seem familiar to me, as if I’ve seen her somewhere, but I can’t remember where.”
Seeing Gu Dai’s frustration, Su Ting offered comfortingly, “Daidai, let me give you a massage. Maybe relaxing a bit will help jog your memory.”
Gu Dai smiled softly at him, “Just feeling you by my side already makes me feel much better.”
As she gazed at Su Ting’s delicate features, a realization struck her, “Fu Jing’s features resemble yours.”
But she quickly shook her head in denial, “No, that’s not quite right. You only bear a slight resemblance. Fu Chuan, on the other hand, looks almost identical to her, as if they were cast from the same mold.”
Understanding her implication, Su Ting said, “I’ll have someone contact Fu Chuan.”
Gu Dai suggested, “Fu Chuan is currently busy with concerts. Let’s have someone investigate without disturbing him.”
Su Ting nodded, “Okay”.
He immediately made a call, instructing his subordinate, “Investigate any connection between Fu Chuan and Organization X. Contact me as soon as you have any information.”
Gu Dai, her gaze returning to the photo, couldn’t help but feel that the resemblance between Fu Chuan and the woman in the photo indicated a complex relationship.
Could it be that Fu Chuan had approached her with an ulterior motive?
Recalling her first encounter with Fu Chuan’s innocent gaze, she found it hard to believe.
After pondering for a moment, Gu Dai decided to call Fu Chuan’s manager, Zhang Zheng.
