Chapter 738: Meeting Again After Six Years (3)

At night on the seventh day of the New Year, City B returned to its usual bustle. With the celebration of the New Year these past few days, the entire city had been emptier than usual, yet tomorrow would be the first day back to work. With that in mind, many people returned to the city, so the entire city returned to its usual flourish.

Outside the VR Spa, Li Si was seated in the car.

Li Si stared at the spa entrance as he asked, “Anything new?”

“They’re still inside. Bro Bao has already arranged for some of our guys to block the back door. Don’t worry.”

Li Si nodded as he pushed his sleeve up to take a glance at the watch on his wrist. The time showed that it was close to 1 a.m. He thought to himself, ‘These two women had so much time in there. It’s already past midnight, and they’re still there. Doris really knows how to enjoy herself. Does Gu Qiwu not care?’

He found it a little odd as he thought about this.

While Li Si was deep in his thoughts, the bodyguard on the side called out, “Assistant Li, they’re out!”

Li Si was alert as he quickly put away his thoughts and looked at the entrance of the spa. Indeed, they saw that Doris and Gu Lingsha were cheerfully leaving the place before getting into a luxury car.

“Follow them, but be careful. Don’t let them notice us! I’ll go in to take a look.” Li Si quickly ordered and then got down from the car.

Mu Yuchen had found a way to get into the spa with his partner, CEO Li’s help, so he should be there.

“Okay.”

Quickly, the black cars left the spa one after another.

Actually, the night was not quite peaceful. The next morning, just when they had finished their breakfast, Li Si returned with the guys, but Ah Bao was nowhere to be seen.

Mu Yuchen set aside the cutlery in his hand, and took a napkin to wipe his mouth as he looked at Li Si by the table and asked calmly, “How’s the situation?”

Li Si bowed respectfully and said, “We found out that Doris and Gu Lingsha really did hang out at VR Spa for the entire night. They only left at dawn, but they didn’t get in touch with anyone else in between, so the pen should still be with them. According to the people at spa, the mother and daughter pair have been frequenting the spa, especially Doris.”

When Mu Yuchen heard the update, he immediately asked, “Did you ask whether Gu Qiwu often went with her?”

Li Si shook his head. “We asked. Those attendants say that they’ve never seen Gu Qiwu accompany Doris there. Maybe it’s because he’s quite busy too, so he wouldn’t have the time to accompany this woman for such pastime. Doris is a dame raised in a rich household. She doesn’t even need to go to work, but Gu Qiwu’s different. He’s managing the entire Hui Gu Corporation alone. I’m sure he’s worn out. Right, Master, I’ve checked Hui Gu Corporation. It seems like because of poor management, they’ve been a little tight on funds.”

Mu Yuchen’s dignified expression was grave as he fell into deep thought. Even when Zhou Zimo called out to him several times, he did not move and his gaze flickered, so you could not tell how he felt at the moment.

A while passed before he tossed the napkin in his hand down and stood up unhurriedly. “Get the address of Xiang She Residences. Prepare the car. We’ll go over for a look right now.”

“Okay, Master!”

Xiang She Residences was in the north of City B around the old city area. While there were quite a few old looking buildings on the side, of course, there were also new streets and newly built buildings. However, with the old and new mixed, it did not look very harmonious.

The car slowly drove past the wide Doyle Street, and after making a huge turn, they reached a somewhat old alley.

“Master, Master Mo, we’re here. The map shows that it’s right here.” Li Si had just finished when Mu Yuchen and Zhou Zimo already got down from the car.

They followed Li Si’s gaze and looked over to see a very quiet alley with green flagstones laid on the pavements. On one side was a tall wall, while the other side had an old house that had not been demolished. A tall building that rose steeply from the ground level was on the other side of that wall, and in the middle was this road with green flagstones separating them was a very clear divider line.

“Master, that exit used to be the exit of Xiang She Residences. There were more than ten villas in the residence, but now they’ve all been relocated. That tall building over there was the old address of Xiang She Residences. Now, traces of Xiang She Residences can’t be found anymore.”

Li Si looked pitifully at those high rise buildings. “I heard that those high-rises have only just been built in recent years. Xiang She Residences used to be a place where only the rich and powerful could purchase. If Miss Mu Zi could really have bought a place here, I think with just her alone having to hide it from everyone wouldn’t have been easy.”

“Have you found out about the investors of Xiang She Residences back then? And that of the people that sold their houses? Years ago, did Aunty personally interact with them? We have to find out about all these,” Mu Yuchen said as he walked towards the alley.

“I’m afraid we won’t be able to meet the people who sold their houses. Ah Bao found out that the person seems to have passed away two years ago. The investor was a foreign developer who left City B over 20 years ago, but Ah Bao found out that there was another investor with that developer back then too. I’m sure you wouldn’t have guessed which company it is, Master,” said Li Si in a lowered voice.

“Who is it? Is it that secretive?” Zhou Zimo stopped his steps and turned to look at Li Si.

“Hui Gu Corporation.”

When Li Si said that, Zhou Zimo’s eyes immediately widened. He reeled back a little in shock as he shook his head. “That’s not right. How could it be him? Gu Qiwu? Also, based on what you said, Xiang She Residences was only built in a short while, so why did it so quickly get demolished for relocation?”

“Oh, it’s because City B’s new plan was released. The old city area was being refurbished again, so they had to demolish these houses.”

Mu Yuchen did not say anything. His eyes just flickered while his expression was a little gloomy. You could not tell how he felt. He glanced up again at the large area before nodding calmly. “No need to continue investigating over here. Let’s leave first,” he said, then turned around with waning interest. His stooped back profile looked like he was very troubled.

“Stop the investigations? Master Mo, Master, he…”

Zhou Zimo shrugged as he lifted a hand to pat Li Si’s shoulder and sighed. “We couldn’t find out anything even after we investigated, so forget it. I’m afraid your Master will have to go meet Gu Qiwu personally. You should know that that’s something he really doesn’t want to do,” said Zhou Zimo. Then, he could not help but knock his forehead as he sighed deeply and then chased after Mu Yuchen.
