Chapter 1107 Helping Each Other

Xiao Peng could not accept that this matter was related to Liu Baorong.

Liu Baorong was his best friend, and he also helped out at home when he was not in the country. If Shao Feng and Liu Baorong were put together, Xiao Peng would trust Liu Baorong more.

He is now even more anxious to return to the country to investigate this matter!

The problem is that the flight isn't until four days later! Damn it!

He is already considering going to Russia or Belarus first and then returning home from there. Can the EU still control the air tickets there?

"Brother Xiao, don't be anxious. I have a suggestion you might want to listen to." Chen Zetao said.

Xiao Peng looked at Chen Zetao.

Chen Zetao said, "You can't handle this problem properly. After all, they are your childhood friends. If you don't handle it well, it will affect your friendship."

His words really touched Xiao Peng's heart.

When he learned that this matter might be related to his childhood friend, he was also confused. What if he couldn't handle their friendship well? To be honest, he didn't know how to deal with this matter: should he point his finger at Shao Feng and Liu Baorong and ask them in person?

"Brother Chen, do you have any good suggestions?" Xiao Peng asked.

Chen Zetao said, "I'll go help you with this matter. You stay here and help me with Jelena's matter. Don't worry, I will investigate the matter in the most efficient and tactful way possible."

Xiao Peng frowned and said, "Brother Chen, I don't have that much time to waste!"

Chen Zetao held up three fingers. "I'll get you a thorough investigation within three days. Don't underestimate the country's investigative capabilities. You can't go back these days anyway, so in exchange... you'll help me deal with Jelena's situation."

Xiao Peng frowned and said, "Brother Chen, before the paternity test, she was your daughter, right? Why didn't you go to the prison yourself?"

Karl on the side was anxious: "Hey, Xiao, what do you mean by 'before the paternity test'? After the test, she is still the daughter of this bastard! What do you think of my sister?"

Xiao Peng said, "Karl, relationships vary. Brother Chen and I have known each other longer and have a better relationship, so I'll be more considerate of him when I speak. So, let me rephrase the question: 'Brother Chen, that's your daughter, right? Why don't you go to jail?'"

Chen Zetao sighed and said, "I... I'm not mentally prepared. Brother Xiao, if a daughter that big suddenly fell from the sky, what would you do?"

"Let's do a paternity test first!" Xiao Peng answered without thinking.

Karl was anxious: “Xiao, if you mention paternity testing again, I will be anxious with you!”

"Why are you so anxious? What if it was you?" Xiao Peng asked Carl.

Karl coughed twice: “I’m going to do a paternity test too… Ugh!”

Chen Zetao said, "Brother Xiao, it's not convenient for you to deal with the matter between you and your childhood friend, and it's not convenient for me to deal with the matter between me and my daughter. Why don't we help each other? How much less awkward will it be?"

Xiao Peng actually understood Chen Zetao's thoughts: he was also one of those who didn't want to go back, and he also hoped to stay in the Netherlands.

Some things aren't necessarily better if they're delayed any longer; Xiao Peng understands the principle that too much is as bad as too little. If this matter is completely ruined due to Xiao Peng's willfulness, with no way out, it would be detrimental to the country's strategic development plans.

But on second thought, what Chen Zetao said made too much sense. It would not be good for him to go back, at least not before the matter was clarified. He could not face Shao Feng and Liu Baorong - they were brothers he trusted, and it was he who arranged for them to go to the museum. He really didn't want the problem to be with them. If he went back directly to confront them face to face, and if he guessed wrong and it had nothing to do with them, how would it affect their relationship?

"Okay, Brother Chen, I'll take care of Jelena's business, and you take care of mine." Xiao Peng considered it and agreed to Chen Zetao's proposal. He turned to Karl and asked, "Karl, will you come with me?"

Carl shook his head vigorously. "If you don't want things to go wrong, don't let me go. Jelena hates me to death now. She told the prison that I'm not allowed to visit her, and..."

"And?" Seeing Carl's hesitation, Xiao Peng asked in confusion, "And what?"

Chen Zetao answered this question: "Although Karl is now a 'free man' from a legal perspective, he still lives a luxurious life. Even though this is the Netherlands, he has his victims, so he should keep a low profile and try to have as little contact with the police as possible."

Xiao Peng said helplessly, "I don't see how he's low-key. Look how low-key I am when I go out. Tsk tsk, look at your car."

Carl laughed and said, "What's wrong with my car? It's just that someone drew all sorts of crazy things on it. It's quite eye-catching when you go out."

Xiao Peng didn't want to hear it anymore: "You dislike my paintings? I'm telling you, the value of that car will increase dramatically because of my paintings!"

"I believe it!" Karl nodded without hesitation, which made Xiao Peng feel very bored. How could you believe it? There are so many smart people these days?

Xiao Peng said to Chen Zetao, "You know, I've only been in the Netherlands for a short time. Besides William, I don't know any other high-ranking Dutch officials. William can't express his views yet—the royal family is subject to many restrictions. I can only go to Frank Bauer, but I don't know if he can help."

Chen Zetao looked at Xiao Peng and smiled without saying anything.

Xiao Peng was helpless: "Brother Chen, it turns out you are also at the level of 'Glutinous Rice Chicken'! I found out, I owed you in my previous life! Forget it, I'll do you this favor, but you have to do me a favor too."

"Okay, okay!" Chen Zetao said hurriedly.

Xiao Peng said, "Please take this calligraphy that Mr. Zheng gave me back to my grandfather! He's sure to like it! I've been asking Liu Baorong to run back and forth to visit him while I was away. Although he didn't say it, he's been worried about me during the months I was missing. Giving this to him will put his mind at ease!"

"No problem!" Chen Zetao nodded directly.

Xiao Peng complained, "This errand fee is quite expensive!"

"I'll reimburse you, okay?" Chen Zetao said.

Xiao Peng simply waved his hand: "Forget it, anything that can be solved with money is not a problem."

Isn't it just about getting someone out of jail? It's so easy here, just money! Although the prison and the police are separate departments here, Xiao Peng wouldn't believe Frank Bower didn't know any connections here.

Xiao Peng asked, "Okay, I won't waste my time with you. Which prison is she in? Give me her information. I'll go to Amsterdam to find Frank right now."

After hearing this, Chen Zetao took out an envelope from his arms and handed it to Xiao Peng: "It's been prepared a long time ago!"

"Fuck!" Xiao Peng cursed. "Brother Chen, you've planned this all along! Have you been expecting me to help you with this from the beginning?"

Chen Zetao didn't deny it. "It's still a little off. I knew you wanted to return home and wanted to find a way to stop you, but I just didn't know what excuse to use! Now it's okay." He shook the small box in his hand. "I'll go solve this problem."
