Chapter 627 Hill Family

The next news I received was a call from Yan Qi himself.

It was quiet late at night and the lights in the hotel were dim.

Cheng Zhiyuan sat in a swivel chair with a glass of wine at his side.

He was wearing a casual plaid shirt with a slightly open collar that revealed half of his straight collarbone. The graceful lines extended into the shadows inside the shirt, and the semi-light and semi-darkness looked very attractive.

Yan Qi's voice in the receiver was still as cold as a machine.

"People from the Hill Group have connections with the guy who was identified."

"That stock exchange is where they met, and that person's group is a subsidiary of Hill."

Cheng Zhiyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, and the cold light that flashed across his pupils seemed extremely cold in the dark night.

"Hill Group."

He chewed the name carefully in his mouth, and all the relevant information flashing through his mind made him frown slightly.

The top ten large enterprises in Country A have a status similar to that of the Cheng family in the empire.

The Hill family behind the group was once involved in gangs and politics, but has now almost been cleansed and claims to be focused on business. Of course, anyone who believes this is an idiot.

The once notorious family that lost several direct descendants in the battle for inheritance has now become a philanthropist and business leader. They even have the backup resources of a department in one of the top five universities in the world. It is said that many elites of the group are directly selected from this college. World-class elites are like cabbages in their hands.

It comes from a very important background.

But if I remember correctly, neither the Cheng family nor he himself has anything to do with this group or family.

“Who is in power in Hill now?”

Cheng Zhiyuan spoke concisely and directly to the point.

Yan Qi was silent for a second, and simply answered,

"have no idea."

"The confidentiality was excellent. Since the change of heir ten years ago, the new head of the family has never appeared in public. I put a lot of effort into investigating, but it's clear that this is their core secret."

"But I checked and found that the Hill Group and the Cheng family have never had any connection at all. Their family should have no reason to deal with the Cheng family."

"So I plan to continue investigating from other angles."

It was rare for Yan Qi to speak so much.

Cheng Zhiyuan had been listening quietly until the end, and only said this moment,

“Don’t let it go.”

The man's eyes reflected the dark night in the distance, like a bottomless pit in the deep sea, empty and dark.

"Hill Group, there's a problem."

"What's the problem?"

"A long time ago, I saw a gossip newspaper on a flight from Country A."

Cheng Zhiyuan said coldly,

"That newspaper said that the new heir to the Hill Group is a young Asian man with black hair."

Yan Qi seemed a little surprised.

"But I've never heard of it."

"I haven't heard anything about it since then, and I only just remembered that newspaper."

"Just based on this, you think there's something wrong with the Hill Group?"

The man lowered his eyes in silence and said indifferently,

"No?"

Just as Mr. Cheng hung up the phone, silent footsteps suddenly sounded in the hotel corridor late at night.

It was like a cat stepping lightly across the carpet, a sound that no one could even notice.

The man sitting casually on the swivel chair in the room raised his hand and turned off the light.

The room was dark, so the footsteps were even clearer in his ears.

Cheng Zhiyuan casually buttoned a button and stood up, as if he was about to attend a colorful and prosperous banquet.

He walked in the darkness as if it were daytime, his back straight, and his footsteps were even quieter than the cat-like footsteps outside the door, so quiet that they were truly silent.
