C68 (2/2)
Shen Yi's fingers tightened, her nails digging into the softest part of her palm, but she could not feel any pain. She continued to ask expressionlessly, ”At that time, Uncle Sheng … Has Ming An ever been here? ” Her heart couldn't help but tremble, as though the truth was right in front of her eyes. However, what was the truth?
Even if Sheng Rui He was not there at the time, and the security guards had received orders from Sheng Ming An alone, then … why did he join so many companies to destroy Shen and Ruan's families?
”I came twice, but the young master wasn't here. He only stayed for a few minutes before leaving.” Uncle Zhou's words gave her the best answer.
Because they had eaten lunch, when Uncle Zhou called, Sheng Rui He was somewhat relieved. However, he couldn't help but think: Why would she want to stay?
When the afternoon meeting was over and they were looking out the French windows at another landmark in A City, he thought for a long time before calling Jin Jia Ma.
”How is the task I entrusted to you?” His encounter with Xin Ran the day before yesterday had caused him to lose the mood and energy to tell her about what he had heard from that Zhou Jinheng and how she had hidden herself from him.
He had never believed in strangers he had never met.
Not to mention, that woman gave him an unfathomable feeling. A woman that was too smart was really annoying.
”Great! If you're worried, should I send a video over? ” When Jin Jia Ma thought of the situation of his family in the past seven years, he could not help but think maliciously: You, Sheng Rui He, are truly deserving of retribution!
”No need!” Ever since Sheng Rui He knew of the child's existence, he had never looked at his photo. Even when Chat Liang was placed on his table, he could easily ignore him and look at the figure holding his hand.
”You didn't see this yourself!” Jin Jia Ma couldn't help but laugh on the phone.
”Why would anyone know about this?” Sheng Rui He asked him coldly.
Oh, that's why he called.
”There's nothing you can do about it. You've made too much of a fuss in the past few days. You know my family's situation very well. If you really want to bring them back …” ”Before half a day, everyone in A City will know that you hid her in my home, so my mom found Xiao Xin. Don't underestimate her young age, she was once the youngest graduate student at Harvard, and she was even chosen by a famous professor. Her medical skills and character are fine, but in A City Hospital, if you want to hide someone, you have to find her …”
”You know her well?” Sheng Rui He asked as he looked out the window at the distant buildings.
”I'm fine, my mother is on good terms with her, I've only met her a few times since I was young. However, the thoughts of a talented child like me is hard for normal people to understand, so …”
”She's not from A City?” Sheng Rui He only asked the important questions he wanted to ask.
Jin Jia Ma exclaimed, and asked back, ”Have you really never heard of her before?” A strange tone came over the phone.
”She's not surnamed Shen.”
That means, why must he hear about someone who has nothing to do with Shen Yuxin? Jin Jia Ma laughed contemptuously on the phone, then picked up some of the rumors circulating in the A-City's famous circles and told him about them. Thus, Sheng Rui He's understanding of Xin Ran became even worse.
After hanging up, he pressed a button on the table and called for an assistant, ”Go to the investigation office and let them investigate a person.” He casually signed a cheque and threw it to the assistant.
”Yes.” The assistant took his check, glanced at the two words he had written on the other paper, and went out.
When he knew that the African mines had been resolved, there was only one conclusion left. Sheng Rui squeezed the phone, lowered his eyes and said, ”Sanliang, don't come back yet. Let's go to France …” When he hung up the phone, he specifically told him, ”Don't let anyone know about this. You know what to do, right?”
”I know, I will tell the general manager here that I am going to Macau's casino,” he said.
”Yes.”
With such a cover, Sheng Rui He didn't have to worry about Yao Jingya or anyone around them knowing about it.
What he did not know was that at the same time, at the Sheng house in the southern part of the city.
Yao Jingya also called a former classmate who now had two prestigious private detective agencies in Paris. She offered a high price, and he nodded and promised her, ”I'll give you a satisfactory answer within a month.
”No, I don't want to wait for a month. At most ten days.”
The other party was obviously drooling at the large sum of money, and only after hesitating for a long time did he clench his teeth and agree to her request: ”Alright! Ten days. ”
