However, by the time Tang Li left, Huo Chenyu had already fled.
Lu Zhixing was left alone, rubbing his fists.
"You won?"
Tang Li looked at his fair face, which seemed to show no signs of being beaten.
Lu Zhixing said meaningfully:
"I can't lose to him in everything, can I?"
"That's good." Tang Li summarized simply.
Then he raised his hand to check the time, patted his shoulder and said, "We've already wasted a day. Take me to the airport. Even if the sky falls, I'll still go."
As for Tang Sui, he was handed over to Ling Ran to be sent back.
Arriving at the airport again, Lu Zhixing took a suitcase from the car. Tang Li looked at him in surprise: "Are you... going on a business trip?"
Lu Zhixing tossed the car keys to Meng Bei, who was waiting at the airport, and said to Tang Li:
“My father-in-law said that before you remarry, I should treat you like my future daughter-in-law. If my wife were to travel far away, I can’t think of anything that would make me feel more at ease than accompanying her personally. So, I’ve left the company to my father-in-law.”
Tang Li opened his mouth as if to say something, but then just nodded.
"Alright, then I'll share in the good fortune of my future fourth sister-in-law."
It was still an evening flight, and we arrived in Jincheng at 11:30 pm.
Xu Ji drove to pick them up. When she saw Lu Zhixing, she was still a little surprised, and then handed him the car keys:
"Mr. Lu, shall you drive, or shall I drive?"
Lu Zhixing politely accepted the car keys, and Xu Ji handed the information he had found last time to Tang Li:
“Boss, here is all the information you requested. Six years have passed, and Laomiao Street is still the same as it was back then. I made a special approach to the teahouse owner’s youngest son and learned from his account that Huo Yishen did indeed appear at this teahouse six years ago.”
In other words, the recording is authentic and not fabricated.
"What about the other two people? Can their identities be confirmed?"
Tang Li took the documents but did not look at them.
She knew that with Xu Ji's abilities, she had memorized all the important information; these documents were nothing more than a pile of waste paper.
"Besides Huo Yishen, there is also Zha Zhongqi's father, Zha Tiesheng. Because he is a local of Jincheng, and the car accident six years ago caused a great deal of trouble, the teahouse owner has a particularly deep impression of him."
Xu Ji sighed:
"But there is one person whose information I have not been able to find. Back then, there were no surveillance cameras on Laomiao Street. In addition, tourists from other places usually go to popular tourist spots and few people come to Laomiao Street to drink tea. So the people who frequented the teahouses were almost all locals from Jincheng."
Tang Li turned from the passenger seat to look at Xu Ji:
"You mean, the other one isn't a local from Jincheng?"
Xu Ji nodded:
"The teahouse owner can be certain of that."
Out-of-towner?
Tang Li's first thought was, "Is it someone close to Huo Yishen?"
Xu Ji shook his head:
"According to the teahouse owner's recollection, that person came with Zha Tiesheng and left with Zha Tiesheng. He seemed to be Zha Tiesheng's friend, not someone close to Huo Yishen. This also ruled out the possibility that he was from Tanzhou, since the teahouse owner's wife is from Tanzhou."
He is neither from Tanzhou nor from Jincheng.
The person who could appear beside Huo Yishen and Zha Tiesheng on such an important occasion without being disregarded by them must be someone very familiar with them.
Seeing that it was getting late, Tang Li said to Lu Zhixing:
"Send Xu Ji back first; she has to get up early for a meeting tomorrow."
Xu Ji clung to the front seat in astonishment:
"Boss, why don't you go home and rest first? President Tang knew you were back, so he specially went to buy ingredients to make you a spicy hot pot."
Tang Li yawned, patted his cheeks, and said:
"I have other things to do, so you can go back and keep an eye on the company for me."
After seeing Xu Ji to his doorstep, Lu Zhixing asked Tang Li:
"You're planning to make a nighttime visit to the former residence of the scumbags?"
Tang Li countered with a question:
"Don't you want to take a look at that burned-down haunted house that no one dares to approach to this day?"
A fire burned the Zha family home down to its main frame. Because the Zha family home was located in a wealthy villa area, surrounded by rich and powerful neighbors who considered it unlucky, they all moved away. Even with very low resale prices, the surrounding villas were still difficult to sell.
After all, wealthy people don't care about these discounted prices, and those who do care about these prices can't afford the luxury homes here.
In addition, not long after the fire, news of the Zha family's house being haunted spread. It is said that a group of daring and adventurous middle school students explored the Zha family's house as if it were a haunted house, but left in a panic.
The two boys who were in the lead had stayed in a mental hospital for a while. They said they saw a man who had been reborn from the ashes in the ruins of the Zha family. He was severely burned all over his body and his face was unrecognizable. It was very frightening.
But because they were so traumatized, no one believed them.
"You don't actually believe that place is haunted, do you?"
Lu Zhixing joked.
Tang Li looked at the information in her hand with great interest. Xu Ji was a very thoughtful and considerate person. In addition to the information she had found, she had also collected a lot of information about Zha Zhongqi not being dead. At that time, people just hoped that the Zha family could leave an heir.
So Xu Ji printed out photos of Zha Zhongqi before the car accident and also found a photo of him with Yunxi.
He was a tall and imposing man who made people feel safe just by looking at him.
Back then, Yunxi was still a petite and delicate woman.
They are a perfect match.
