Yes, the photograph of this adopted daughter reveals that she is very beautiful, with outstanding features and a dignified, elegant demeanor. What’s key is that she’s bare-faced, without any added Photoshop enhancements. One can only imagine how breath-taking and dazzling she would be in person.
But, no matter how beautiful, you can’t just stare at her photo like that. She’s a convict now.
Secretary Gao didn’t quite understand the president’s behavior!
"Third Young Master..."
"Didn’t you hear me tell you to get out?" Suddenly, this man became angry.
Upon hearing this, Secretary Gao had no choice but to rush out...
What’s with the president? Why is he losing his temper so early in the morning? Is there something wrong again?
Secretary Gao left with a belly full of complaints, but what he didn’t know was that after he left and closed the door of the office, the man sitting at the desk suddenly took a ruler from the pen holder and covered up the bottom half of the woman’s face on the computer screen.
Afterward, his other hand blocked off the forehead portion as well.
At that moment, the only thing left visible in the photo were her eyes. And those eyes, glazed over—dark from a distance, yet upon closer inspection one would find her pupils akin to an oasis in the desert, brimming and fluid, sparkling and translucent, strikingly similar to a pair he had been frequently seeing lately!
Ou Mucen was momentarily frozen, his eyes revealing rare astonishment.
How is this possible?
Sitting there, he remained in shock for quite some time before regaining his composure. He then let go and quickly picked up the phone on the desk, "Hello, make a call to Ningzhou Prison and inquire about the current situation of that adopted daughter."
The adopted daughter?
Secretary Gao nodded on the other end, "Okay, what’s her name?"
He had left so quickly earlier that he forgot to check what her name was.
Similarly, the man on this end had to glance at the screen again upon hearing the question, "Ye Ning..."
Ye Ning, so her name is Ye Ning. After all these years, he had never known her name.
Secretary Gao was highly efficient. It wasn’t long before he came in to report the findings, "Third Young Master, I just asked. Ningzhou Prison says that Ye Ning has been serving her sentence and performing exceptionally well."
Upon hearing this, the man who had been sitting still frowned but showed no surprise. Instead, he seemed puzzled.
She’s still serving her sentence?
He sat there in thought, fiddling with the pen in his hand idly.
Secretary Gao didn’t know what he was pondering and was afraid to ask for fear of angering him, so he could only wait carefully until the man finally spoke again after another five minutes, "What about that matter I asked you to investigate about An Ning? How’s it going?"
Why had the president’s thoughts jumped so abruptly? He was just discussing the adopted daughter from the secondary branch, and now all of a sudden it’s about his assistant?
Secretary Gao was a bit confused, "Not yet, but we’ve sent someone to the address on her ID card, and they’re currently inquiring."
Ou Mucen furrowed his brow, "Hold off on that for now. You go to Ningzhou personally, and first, take a look at this Ye Ning."
Ah? Go to Ningzhou first?
Secretary Gao was becoming even more perplexed, "What does Third Young Master mean by...?"
