Chapter 390 They seem to have a little secret



Lin Wu was planning to call Cheng Man for the last time to ask if he had any news yet, so he went to look for him in person, but he received another message reminder.

The third-year research fellow who she added from Chi Yangzhi in the morning accepted her friend request and sent her an apologetic message, saying that he had been in the lab all day and was about to finish the experiment and was free, so he would just come back now.

Lin Wu was not in a hurry, so he clicked on his message and replied.

[I am the one who is going to trouble you, senior. It is okay to wait. 】

The other party replied immediately: [Let me introduce myself. My name is Chen Yue. What is your junior sister's name? ]

【Forest fog.】

[Okay, if it's convenient for you tomorrow, how about we meet at 4pm? I'll discuss the topic with you.]

Of course it is convenient for Lin Wu, she can just reply to the designated location and send it to her.

As soon as the message was sent, it was seen by Bo Yuting who was returning from the kitchen carrying some fruit.

"Who is this?"

The man asked casually and sat down next to Lin Wu.

Lin Wu said: "My teacher has assigned me a new topic. He has been appointed as my partner. We will meet tomorrow to discuss the details."

Bo Yuting blurted out: "Male?"

Lin Wu: “Yeah.”

"No women?"

Bo Yuting asked immediately.

Lin Wu clicked on Cheng Man's page and replied nonchalantly, "Yes, but it's not easy to find a suitable partner who is available. Not to mention, my project is a bit difficult for me, so it's not easy for them. It's not easy to find someone who can guide me just because I want to."

Bo Yuting thought about it and decided not to worry about it anymore. He said, "Then you should take more rest. You have enough things to do already. Don't add more burdens to yourself."

Lin Wu nodded: "I know."

Just as I was about to dial Cheng Man’s number, a message from Gu Shiqing popped up.

Just as she was about to slash open the door, she caught a glimpse of Gu Shiqing asking her if she could give him Gong Ye's personal contact number.

This is Lin Wu who clicked in and replied: [What do you want his contact information for? Do you want to cooperate? If you want to cooperate with the Fourth Special District, you don’t have to bother looking for him. I can just sign and approve it for you.]

Gu Shiqing replied: [It's not a public cooperation, it's my second brother who came to him for something. ]

Lin Wu couldn't help but be a little surprised.

Personal matter?

When did the two of them become so familiar with each other? After thinking about it, Lin Wu finally sent it to him and gave Miyano a greeting to inform him.

After sending it, Lin Wu inexplicably remembered the last gift.

At that time, Gu Shiqing seemed strange.

She turned her head to look at the man working beside her, "When I went to Gu's house, what was the gift you prepared for Gu Shiqing?"

"Gu Shiqing's?" Bo Yuting glanced at the contents on the computer screen and replied casually, "I don't know either."

"? You prepared it, don't you know?"

Lin Wu was puzzled.

Bo Yuting explained, "Didn't I prepare it in your mansion in R Continent? At that time, Brother Gong San saw it. He said that what I prepared for Gu Shiqing was not very good, and that he could modify it to have an unexpected effect, so I let him take it away. He gave it to me the day before I returned to China."

At that time, it was rare for Miyano to be so kind to him.

Moreover, before Gu Shiqing left Rzhou Mansion, he once saw Gu Shiqing asking an unfamiliar servant in the mansion to take him to see Gong Ye. He didn't know what they were going to do, and it seemed that the two of them had some little secret.

Naturally, he didn't mind Miyano tinkering with the gift.

Lin Wu was stunned when he heard this.

Bo Yuting looked at her reaction and became interested: "Why? Don't you know that Gu Shiqing went to see Gong Sange by himself?"

This was a rare opportunity for Gu Shiqing, and he couldn't miss it, lest he be bullied in the future as his brother-in-law.

Lin Wu was even more surprised: "I don't know."

In fact, the servants and guards in the mansion were all found for Lin Wu by Gongye and his men. Lin Wu was too lazy to care and only asked them not to disturb her. Therefore, she didn't care when there was one more person or one less person. Anyway, they couldn't hurt her.

Bo Yuting immediately added fuel to the fire with his keen intuition: "They are hiding something from you, otherwise they wouldn't have met you without your knowledge. They must be doing something that they don't want you to find out."

Lin Wu was slightly startled and looked down at his phone.

Immediately, she shook her head and said, "Forget it, I won't ask. I'm not sure about Gu Shiqing, but my third brother won't do anything that's bad for me. He must have his reasons for not wanting me to know."

Bo Yuting was a little jealous of this trust, so he went up to her and asked for a kiss.

Lin Wu didn't even have time to react before he kissed her until she felt dizzy. She finally pushed him away and asked what was going on, but he changed the subject and said that it was time to call Cheng Man.

Lin Wu glanced at him, didn't ask any more questions, and dialed Cheng Man's number.

However, the sound that rang out was——

"Daosheng?"

"Zheng Mingxian?"

Lin Wu and Bo Yuting both looked surprised.

When she spoke, Zheng Mingxian on the other side was more certain that it was her, and hurriedly said: "Daosheng, you are in Beijing now, right? That's great! Cheng Man went back to Xuanmen to look for his father last week, but he hasn't shown up since then, and there is no news from him. I went to look for him, but Uncle Cheng refused to meet me. The day before yesterday, I asked my father to ask how Cheng Man was doing, but when my father came back, he only told me that Cheng Man was recovering from his injuries, and didn't say anything else."

The more he thought about it, the more worried he became. "I suspect that Cheng Man asked about things that made Uncle Cheng very unhappy, so he detained him and didn't let him show up. And you don't know, Uncle Cheng has always been very strict with Cheng Man and doesn't allow him to ask too many questions. He must have made Uncle Cheng angry this time! If Uncle Cheng gets angry, he will punish him, but his injury hasn't healed yet!"

"Wait a minute. Wait a minute."

Lin Wu had a headache after hearing this, so he stopped him and asked, "How come Cheng Man's phone is here with you?"

"It's not a mobile phone, it's a phone card." Zheng Mingxian said, "Before returning to China, I exchanged cards with him. If he went back to ask his father at that time, it might not be smooth. Switching to my card will make it easier to locate him and find where he is."

"So where is he now?" Lin Wu asked.

"I don't know. I asked someone to locate it, but they couldn't find the signal of my card."

Zheng Mingxian was so worried and anxious because he didn't know where it was.

He asked, "Daosheng, is it convenient for you to look for Cheng Man?"

You must look for it.

Lin Wu also pointed at Cheng Man and asked her about the mural.

But looking at Cheng Wenwei's attitude this way, it seems a bit strange.

Could it be that the matter of the mural is not as simple as she thought, and there is a hidden story behind it?

Lin Wu thought for a moment and said, "Well, I will go to Xuanmen tomorrow morning."

"Okay! Then I'll wait for you at Xuanmen tomorrow morning..."

"No, don't go."

Lin Wu interrupted him and said, "I need you to do me another favor."

"you say!"

Zheng Mingxian did not hesitate.

Bo Yuting, who was standing next to him, glanced at Lin Wu and could already guess what Lin Wu was going to ask.

Lin Wu said: "Let me ask you first, do you know what happened to the previous owner of the funeral industry nearly eighteen years ago?"

Upon hearing this, Zheng Mingxian suddenly fell silent.

Lin Wu narrowed his eyes slightly: "You know?"

"I..." Zheng Mingxian paused and asked unexpectedly: "Daosheng, why are you asking this?"

Lin Wu: "Answer me first."

Zheng Mingxian was silent for a moment, "...I do know a little bit."

"when?"

"It was in Beicheng when you told me that Leng Linfeng had a grudge against Wu Xing. I asked my father at that time, and he told me."

"How much do you know?"

"Just... the previous owner's family was buried..."

Zheng Mingxian couldn't continue speaking and sighed, "This is the fault of the other four banks."

Lin Wu asked: "What else?"

"What else?" Zheng Mingxian was stunned and asked puzzledly: "What else can there be?"

Lin Wu asked bluntly: "After that incident, what did you Shi Xing encounter and what did you do?"

Zheng Mingxian was puzzled when asked: "No. After that, my father did use the resources of the stone industry to secretly help the funeral industry to compensate them."

Lin Wu and Bo Yuting exchanged glances.

Bo Yuting used his mouth to tell Lin Wu that Zheng Mingxian probably didn't lie and really didn't know.

Lin Wu said, "What I want you to do is to find out what happened to Shi Xing. You have to go to your father in person to get information. You can use the dried blood vine. But I remind you again, don't let your father know why you are asking. Otherwise, you might be tricked into telling your father the truth, which may have an unintended effect."

Zheng Mingxian was stunned.

Perhaps realizing something was wrong, he hurriedly said "OK" and hung up the phone.
