"Mu Xing, come back now," Zhao Chen didn’t bother with small talk.
"Why! I’m almost catching up!"
"..." Zhao Chen was flustered for a moment, "Aren’t you supposed to be tracking? Who are you chasing?"
"Let’s not get into that, just come back first. This matter seems to have another issue, things are not as you think."
Mu Xing was a bit unwilling, as she was enjoying the thrill of the sudden reversal, scaring the other party into a frantic escape.
"Give me a good reason."
"I’ve checked the hospital’s surveillance, Miss Lu had left the hospital with a person who seemed to be injured, and then I tracked down that driver."
Zhao Chen emphasized, "Miss Lu was just helping out, she kindly took someone to the hospital and doesn’t actually know the person. Do you know which hospital they went to?"
With a reluctant look on her face, Mu Xing unhappily asked, "Tell me."
"Song Clinic." Zhao Chen added, "Now think about it, where did you spot them just now?"
"It’s not Song Clinic."
Zhao Chen held his forehead, "Listen, even though it’s not, the place is very close to one of Song Family’s properties. I checked, and they left from that property. Other people don’t know this, I went to great lengths to confirm it. The Song Clinic has some connections with the Gu Family, and there are contracted doctors who work there, so we are slightly more informed."
"Are you saying, she wasn’t having an affair, but visiting the injured person?"
"Yeah, my initial guess is that this person must have some connection to Song Ning from the Song Clinic, probably a friend. The hospital’s confidentiality is very good, so we can’t check who it is for now, but I feel it must be because of this. Song Ning transferred the person, and Miss Lu went to visit."
Mu Xing argued, "Isn’t that getting a bit too involved for just ’helping out’?"
Zhao Chen gave a sheepish smile, "That’s the thing, the driver said it seemed like the person was knocked unconscious by Miss Lu by accident. Maybe Miss Lu wanted to make sure the other party was alright, otherwise, what if they tried to extort money from her?"
Mu Xing: "...Wasn’t it about helping out? How did it become a case of being extorted?"
Zhao Chen cleared his throat, "Maybe it’s a bit of both, this kind of thing is just the driver’s side of the story, who knows for sure."
Mu Xing rolled her eyes, knowing that he just wanted to portray the Young Madam of the Gu Family as a simple and kind good person.
"Wait a minute, what’s this got to do with the actor?" Mu Xing now had a bone to pick with the actor.
Disregarding her capabilities was one thing, but she found catching up was not as easy as she thought. Despite her best efforts, she hadn’t caught up even after so long; she hadn’t been thrown off, at least.
"Because President Bai and Doctor Song know each other," Zhao Chen had a more solid reason this time, "You might not know this, but President Bai and the Song Family have known each other for generations. President Bai’s brother, who has been missing for years, was once engaged to Song Ning. Later, it’s said his brother disappeared at sea, and the family searched for a long time without any clues, marking him as a missing person. This fiancée hasn’t married to this day."
Mu Xing felt a bit indignant, her heart still not giving up on continuing the chase.
"Now hurry back, we need to figure out what’s going on."
If it were just a matter of tracking, she might have wanted to continue watching.
But since her tracking had been discovered, even if she caught up, she wouldn’t have a good reason anymore.
That actor had too many fans, capable of causing traffic jams.
"Fine." Mu Xing hung up the phone irritably, gritted her teeth, and immediately turned the car around.
She was done playing!
