Chapter 122 Waiting for You

Li Jia turned on her computer, went online, and began searching for basic information about various hospitals in M ​​City. Finally, she found the hospital where Meng Xianzhong had died. After noting down the hospital's address, Li Jia took out her phone, thought for a moment, and then called her own shop.

It's ten o'clock now. Meng Yao is still awake and watching TV with Zhou Xiaoyu. When she hears the phone ringing in the study, she gets up and goes into the study. "Hello, who is this?"

"It's me. I have something I want to ask you. How much do you know about your father's health condition before he passed away?" Li Jia listened to Meng Yao's narration while nodding, and only hung up the phone ten minutes later.

"Wu Xinfei, just get through tonight. Tomorrow might not be so easy." Li Jia came here for two reasons: first, to confirm whether the two assassins were hired by him; and second, to investigate the cause of Meng Xianzhong's death. His intuition told him that Meng Xianzhong's death was probably not as simple as a brain hemorrhage that failed to be treated.

Since the news broke on the first day, Li Jia had seen the reports online and had started speculating about many possible causes and consequences. Of course, at that time, the speculation was just to keep her logical reasoning ability active.

Coincidentally, Meng Xianzong was Meng Yao's father. Coupled with the subsequent kidnapping and assassination incidents, all these events revolve around one theme: Meng Xianzong's seemingly enormous estate. With a little thought, the cause of Meng Xianzong's death becomes worth speculating about.

Li Jia opened MSN and logged into her account. Only one friend was still online. As soon as Li Jia logged in, Xiaomi sent her a message: "New message. Today, Director Wu was furious in his room and gave that little fox a good beating. It seems that something completely failed. He even said something about a car crash and death. Is this message useful?"

"Hmm, this information is quite useful, isn't it? What time does Wu Xinfei usually leave the club at night?" Li Jia smiled at Xiaomi's eager expression and casually edited a message before sending it out.

"He lives in the club almost every day, I don't know what he's doing. I've never been up to the fourth floor of the club. It seems to be a completely private space, and only platinum members who have reached a certain number of years can go up there. There's a photography event held there almost every week, all indoors, and they always invite some super beautiful models to participate in the shoot." Xiaomi typed very fast and sent a long message in a short while.

Looking at the message from Xiaomi, Li Jia became even more certain that Wu Xinfei was the one who hired someone to kidnap and kill. After a moment's thought, she sent a smiley face and said, "Not bad, well done!" "That's right, I pretended to be working overtime today so I could keep an eye on things a little longer, which is why I got what I told you earlier. I just got home, took a shower, and came online to wait for you." Xiaomi's message flashed again quickly.

"Hmm, tomorrow's the weekend, do they have another photography event?"

"Well, there will definitely be one if nothing unexpected happens, but it's hard to say since Director Wu got so angry just now. But we'll know tomorrow night at eight o'clock. They always start sending people to their photography events at eight o'clock. If you come to M City tomorrow, I'll tell you whether they've held an event or not."

"What if I come today?" Li Jia got the information she wanted and was in a great mood, joking with Xiaomi.

"Then...then I'll wait for you! How about it?" The message came with a shy smiley face, which made Li Jia smile slightly. She typed a few words and sent them back: "Baronbia Hotel, 2713, come on, I'm waiting for you."
