Chapter 197 The Ding Family



Li Yizhi chuckled lightly: "Evidence? So what if you have evidence? You still have nowhere to turn for help."

Past experience has taught us that even those who possess capital are powerless against it.

Yuan Yuan and his companion exchanged a glance, both looking somewhat astonished.

"So, do you have any evidence?"

“There are some,” Li Yizhi said, “but they’re useless.”

Yuan Yuan didn't know how much pressure Ding Hao's background put on Li Yizhi, but he still wanted to try again.

"Mr. Li, do you want to bring down Ding Hao?"

Li Yizhi's eyes flickered, filled with both hope and trepidation.

Yuan Yuan realized that, given the chance, he very much hoped his enemies would get their comeuppance. However, he still had some reservations.

“We really don’t know what you’ve been through in the past,” Yuan Yuan said calmly. “But Mr. Li, Ding Hao has done something he shouldn’t have this time. If you want to bring him down, this is indeed a good opportunity.”

“I…” Li Yizhi looked conflicted. After thinking for a long time, he only said one sentence, “I need to think about it.”

The fact that he didn't outright refuse meant there was still a chance. Yuan Yuan didn't stare for too long, and the two didn't talk much afterward, only exchanging contact information.

After Li Yizhi left, Yuan Yuan and the others returned to the hotel and quickly began contacting Shi Jing's side.

At the same time, Shi Jing also found some things.

This is all thanks to Liang Qiu's circle of friends. It's probably a case of birds of a feather flocking together; tech geeks' social circles are all tech geeks. No one knows who Liang Qiu contacted, but in just two or three days, these people had practically dug up every detail of Ding Hao's network of contacts.

As you dig deeper, new suspicious points are naturally discovered.

For example, Ding Hao's mentor and Ding Hao's mother came from the same place and later studied at the same university.

For example, Ding Hao's father, Ding Linjun, suffers from azoospermia.

This is all thanks to Ding Linjun's recent full-body checkup.

Perhaps due to his work in the pharmaceutical industry, Ding Linjun has undergone a full physical examination almost every year for the past decade or so. Interestingly, the place where he had these examinations was the same place where Ding Hao's mother worked. Even more interestingly, the examination reports were altered!

Further investigation revealed that previous inspection reports had also been altered.

Some inspection records from decades ago are no longer available, but those from recent years can be found.

The reason why Ding Linjun's wife did this is quite intriguing.

Was she doing this to save face for her husband, or was there another reason? Did Ding Linjun even know about this?

Although the real reason cannot be determined at present, the investigators have already felt sympathy for him after finding out the result.

"Ding Linjun's influence in the industry is indeed strong. Haisheng truly deserves to be the largest pharmaceutical group in China." After meeting some of the people at Ding Hao's research institute, Liang Qiu couldn't help but sigh.

These people were not unmoved, but due to their future prospects, they could only cautiously choose to remain silent.

“Come here. If you want to completely get rid of Ding Hao, you need to make a move on Ding Linjun, your powerful backer.” Shi Jing also understood the current situation.

Leaving aside Li Yizhi's situation for the moment, regarding Fang Ning's side, with Ding Hao's tight control, it's really difficult to find any direct evidence.

"Has the computer been found?"

"not yet."

This kind of thing has most likely been destroyed. Even if it were found, it probably wouldn't be of much use. Everyone knows this, but we still hold onto a sliver of hope.

"It seems we still need to start by investigating the parent-child relationship between Ding Linjun and Ding Hao." Shi Jing rubbed her temples, this trouble was giving her a headache. "But how do we obtain their DNA?"

It cannot be confirmed at this time whether Ding Hao is Ding Linjun's biological son; we can only try to investigate. After all, no one can be certain when Ding Linjun's azoospermia was caused.

"Let's leave this to Lao Wang. He has many connections; maybe he can get it," Liang Qiu suggested.

"The Ding family's family traditions aren't very good either."

There's been a lot of news coming in lately, and Liang Qiu has gotten quite a bit of gossip.

The Ding family wasn't always wealthy; it's just that Ding Linjun's father caught a wave of the times and had a smooth life. The Ding brothers are also capable men; one has gone into business and the other into politics, and both have achieved considerable success.

Ding Linjun had three siblings, including an older sister. However, the Ding family favored sons over daughters, and the older sister married off early without a name.

Ding Linjun has only had one son, Ding Hao, all these years. He has kept many mistresses outside, but only has a pair of twin illegitimate children in name only.

His elder brother, Ding Linqiang, pursued a career in government after graduating from university and now holds a considerable official position. His first wife bore him a daughter, but he secretly had twin sons. For the sake of his career, he couldn't keep his sons and mistress under his own name, so they were both registered under his younger brother's name.

It's no wonder Liang Qiu scoffed at all this.

"Once we get the paternity test results for him and Ding Hao, we'll send them a copy of his real medical examination report to test the waters."

"Yes, that's fine."

"As for the rest of the Ding family, we'll leave some leverage over them. Our main goal is to bring down Ding Hao, but if the Ding family wants to retaliate, we can't be unprepared."

Although Shi Jing disapproved of the Ding family's actions, she knew it wasn't wise to make enemies easily. However, if the other party was making baseless accusations, there was no need to be afraid.

"Don't worry, I've already had people keeping an eye on things. It's hard to say about Ding Linjun, but the evidence against Ding Linqiang is solid."

"We still can't be careless. Tell them all to be careful," Shi Jing instructed.

Ding Linjun was just a businessman, which was somewhat better, but Ding Linqiang had been an official for so many years, it was hard to guarantee that he didn't have some tricks up his sleeve.

"Don't worry," Liang Qiu replied.

After chatting with Liang Qiu and the others, they went back to their own business.

During this time, Fang Ning stayed in his room reading books.

He knew there was not much he could do; the best he could do was not to add to Shi Jing's and the others' workload.

Fang Ning had seen everyone's hard work these past few days. Besides feeling apologetic, he also wanted to cooperate with everyone, even if it was just to get one useful piece of information.

Fang Ning has now been expelled from Ding Hao's laboratory. Unless he obtains evidence to clear his name, it will be difficult for him to enter other similar laboratories.

As for the school, although there has been no action yet, the situation is clearly not optimistic.

Shi Jing could certainly spend money to set up a laboratory for Fang Ning, but she still hoped that Fang Ning could remove the stigma and start afresh with a clean record.

Although there are many troubles, let's solve them one by one.
