Gong Chen’s calm and collected expression said it all.
He knows everything.
Gong Chen looked at Lin Zhiyi’s furious expression and pulled her closer to explain directly.
"I didn’t expect to find anything, the records are in the hospital, any slight movement and the director would know. I just wanted to see how deep his ties with Mrs. Bai run."
"But that’s just my guess, I don’t want to add unnecessary troubles for you."
"However, the credit goes to you and Li Huan, you found unexpected evidence."
"Now it seems that there must be more secrets between the director and Yang Jingwei. Bai Ruoshu’s birth at seven months might not have been just a simple premature birth back then."
Seeing this, Li Huan leaned in.
"And me? Aren’t you going to explain to me?"
"Want me to pull you aside and explain?" Gong Chen glanced at him.
"Alright then."
Li Huan reached out his hand.
Gong Chen squinted and shoved a cup of tea into his hand: "Thank you, Doctor Li."
Li Huan, easily pleased, laughed: "No need to thank me. It’s good that you didn’t say anything, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to fool my colleagues, much less the director."
Just so happens, the director saw through his anxious actions, which is why he dared to alter medical records recklessly.
But this precisely shows that the relationship between the director and Yang Jingwei isn’t just that of simple friends.
Lin Zhiyi snapped out of it, looked at Gong Chen, and asked: "Third Young Master, you mentioned abroad earlier, did something happen abroad?"
Gong Chen nodded, but his expression darkened.
He didn’t speak, Chen Jin explained the situation abroad for him.
"Those who are snooping abroad have not returned."
"What?" Lin Zhiyi was so shocked that some tea spilled from her hands.
Liao Yi was quick to react, immediately covering Xingxing’s ears and pulling her aside.
Even though he knew Xingxing wouldn’t understand, he was afraid she’d be curious and ask.
Lin Zhiyi softly asked the question: "What do you mean by ’have not returned’?"
"Literally, all have lost contact, likely met with ill fate." Chen Jin continued, "Not only that, even if we ask openly, those people remain silent, clearly unwilling to talk about the Bai Family. This should be the Bai Family’s warning, so the Third Young Master thought of using the opportunity to investigate Mrs. Bai, making them think we’ve shifted focus to domestic matters."
Lin Zhiyi took a deep breath: "What exactly does this Bai Family do? Such great influence overseas."
"Their industry is fairly diverse, but in recent years they’ve invested heavily in the art industry, their most successful investment being Miss Bai." Chen Jin explained.
No wonder Bai Ruoshu’s new product release received so much publicity help.
Gong Chen squeezed Lin Zhiyi’s hand, his gentle voice slowly entering her ears.
"As long as it’s a person, there will be traces to find."
"Hmm."
After the conversation, the Aunt opened the door and came in.
Seeing Gong Chen back, she hurriedly greeted them.
"Third Young Master, Doctor Li, Assistant Chen, you’re all here, I’ll make some extra dishes, please wait a moment."
Li Huan raised his hand to refuse, but Lin Zhiyi stopped him.
"You’ve been running around, surely we can’t not treat you to a meal?"
Li Huan didn’t refuse further.
Lin Zhiyi and Liao Yi quickly tidied up.
Just in time for Li Huan to notice the letters Liao Yi had written on the table.
"What’s this?"
"Before you came, Zhiyi and I were looking at Bai Ruoshu’s Christmas limited jewelry, I even joked that Bai Ruoshu loves letter elements, her last two new products both include them, Zhiyi asked me to write them down to see what they represent, but I only got halfway when you arrived."
Liao Yi pointed to the letters on the sketch paper.
Li Huan exclaimed: "Bai Ruoshu released new products that quickly?"
"Not just that, the style is vastly different from before."
Liao Yi simply projected the photos of the new products onto the TV screen.
Li Huan approached the TV, pointing at the letters hanging from the necklace.
"You’re writing them in the wrong order."
"I often read comic books, the reading direction is different from yours." Liao Yi pouted.
