Chapter 739: Meeting Again After Six Years (4)

“Boss, I’ve followed your orders and investigated the guestlist for yesterday’s auction. We found something.”

Ah Yong carefully presented his findings to the quiet man sitting in the passenger seat in the car. The man was still wearing a hat and dark sunglasses like before, and his black coat almost covered him wholly. Both his hands were in his side pockets as he took a glance at the paper. Then, he took it and then started to read through it.

When he saw the name Mu Yuchen, his gaze turned cold, but his eyes returned to normal soon after that.

“Mu Yuchen is in City B just like you said. I’m sure that pen was his trap for you, Boss. However, they took the pen away in the end. What should we do? Do we just give up like this?” Ah Yong seemed disgruntled.

The man who was called “Boss” took a deep breath as he put on a cold smile. “It’s within my expectations. Also, it’s only natural that we shouldn’t take Mu Yuchen lightly.”

“By the way, they also went to Doyle Street this morning. I bet they know about that house already.”

“Mu Yuchen acts pretty fast. He saw through Qi Qiming’s end very quickly and is now getting closer to the truth already. It might not be a good thing for them. Actually, it might have been better if no one knew.” The man’s tone was filled with sarcasm.”Once these secrets are revealed, I doubt there’s anyone courageous enough to accept them.”

“What should we do now, Boss? There were two groups of people tailing us last night. The other group must be Mu Yuchen’s people.”

“Just leave it for now. You don’t have to do anything from now on. Just wait for my orders.”

“Yes, Boss!”

…

In the afternoon, Ah Bao finally returned to the hotel to report to Mu Yuchen after working hard for a whole day.

“Head in. Master is out on the balcony. I’m going out,” said Li Si when he bumped into Ah Bao at the entrance. Ah Bao took a deep breath before going inside.

Mu Yuchen was relaxing on the balcony as he relaxed on a rattan chair. He was sunbathing while wearing a pair of huge sunglasses.

“Master!” Ah Bao quietly called him.

“Speak,” Mu Yuchen replied briefly without moving his body.

“I’ve found out that the other group pursuing the man was the wife of the Hui Gu Corporation CEO, who is Doris.”

Mu Yuchen clenched his fist as he heard the name. Even Ah Bao could sense some hostility in the air. Moments later, Ah Bao took a deep breath and continued, “But we don’t know who the person we’re chasing is yet. According to the other group, they are trying to find out who that man was well, but they lost track of him too, so…”

Mu Yuchen nodded. “I understand. Great job. You can leave for now.”

“We’re not doing any further investigations?”

“There’s no need.”

Ah Bao left after Mu Yuchen gave him a short reply.

“Have you figured something out?” Zhou Zimo asked after the door was closed.

Mu Yuchen took off his sunglasses and turned his head over to see Zhou Zimo standing nearby.

“What could I have figured out?”

Mu Yuchen smiled as he grabbed the glass of water beside him and took a sip from it before looking at the vast, blue sky. “Let’s return to City Z tonight. Leave things here to Ah Bao and the others.”

“What’s wrong with you? You seem to have a lot on your mind. What are you thinking about?”

Zhou Zimo was friends with Mu Yuchen for many years after all, so he noticed something was not right. “What did Ah Bao tell you just now?”

“Nothing much, but I have a bad feeling. It’s been some time since Ah Mo and Lingshi went to Australia. I guess there’ll be news coming in a few days, so we’ll talk about it again then. There’s something else I need to do before heading back,” Mu Yuchen said calmly.

“To meet Gu Qiwu, isn’t it?” Zhou Zimo walked over and lay down on the rattan lounge chair beside Mu Yuchen.

“How will he face you? Now that I think about it, Gu Qiwu felt really strange to me. He didn’t react ever since that incident, and he seemed too calm for it. He might be the one who saved Gu Lingsha and Qi Feng. Moreover, I remember his attitude towards you wasn’t very agreeable. Does he not like you or something?”

“I don’t really know him that well. We only started getting involved with each other after I left the army, but I do know he doesn’t exactly like my parents a lot. When my father was still working in City B, several projects from the Hui Gu Corporation were stopped. I think the relationship between the Mus and the Gus has been deteriorating ever since, and six years ago, during the financial crisis, the Hui Gu Corporation almost went bankrupt. There was a project that could help them go through that difficult period, and they were secretly in contact with Qi Qiming. However, their opponent for that project was Glory World.” While Mu Yuchen recalled the past events calmly, he did not project any emotions into his words.

“Oddly enough, he insisted on letting Gu Lingsha marry me, and his attitude towards me during that period of time was beyond expectations. In order to make me accept Gu Lingsha wholeheartedly, he suggested I stay with the Gu family for three months. He promised to leave us alone if we didn’t feel anything for each other after three months.”

Zhou Zimo nodded and took a deep breath. “I know about that. Ah Mo told me about it before too, but you didn’t stay with the Gu family, did you?”

“Yes, I don’t like Gu Lingsha at all, so I inherently reject her. I can’t even stand talking to her. How could I stay with her for three months?” Mu Yuchen then put on a cold smile. “I left that night itself, but Gu Qiwu tried to use the media to force me to follow his plans. We were the talk of the whole town. If I just left, it’d be a big slap on their face in public, so I couldn’t just go so easily.”
