Chapter 225 - Investigate Everything That Happened To Jin Qingling (1/2)

After Wu Zihao left Jin Qingling's house, he got into his car and drove to a certain distance before stopping it on a side of the road. His head was messed from everything she had told him and he found it hard to think straight.

He opened the glove compartment and took out a box of cigarettes and lighter. Without wasting any time, he lit a cigarette and took a long puff to calm his mind, but it didn't work. After he finally littered several burnt cigarette butts out of the window on the ground, next to the tire of the car, the ache in his heart reduced.

However, the words of Jin Qingling were running inside his head on a loop, nonstop!

He smoked a few more cigarettes until he had no more left in his car. He threw out the empty box and slammed the driving wheel in frustration.

'How come she was manipulated right under his nose and he never found out?'

'Just whose men blackmailed her to keep them apart for four damn years?' He knew his men didn't have the guts to betray him unless they wanted to rot in the underworld, which no one would dare in their right mind.

'She must have gone through a lot to despise me so much now.'

”Xiao Ling, I promise to rectify everything one day and bring you back to my side.” He murmured to himself and then picked up his phone from the shotgun seat that he had thrown on it previously while getting inside, and dialed a number that he had not contacted for a very long time now.

The call on the other end was answered right before it would have been disconnected and a deep manly voice answered it. ”Second Young Master Wu, what made you call me today?”

Wu Zihao didn't fret over the greetings and got straight to the point. ”Fei Rong, Investigate everything that happened to Jin Qingling in the past four years. I want all the details regarding when and how many times she tried to visit C City and who prevented her from seeing me. I want even the smallest of details.”

”I have stopped playing the detective long back, you know that.” The man on the other end replied in a blunt tone.

”I have already transferred the advance payment in your account. You will get the rest after the work is done. I want all the details in my mailbox by evening. You can use my men and resources however you want to.” Without giving him the chance to reject the work, Wu Zihao hung up.

He drove aimlessly for a long time until it was almost two in the afternoon and because of the glutton he was, he couldn't control his hunger anymore when his stomach started growling. As he drove further, he located a noodle joint on the other end of the street drove towards it.

The cafe had a decent ambiance with a few tables also spread out in the open without any patio umbrellas. The mild rays of the sun on a chilly winter day felt very soothing on the skin and therefore a lot of customers were seated outside as well.
