The lively business reception is gradually coming to an end;
Wilding has been moving among business elites in various industries, and Qi Shuo did not give the man too much special care; he just let him be active in the field.
There was always a constant stream of people trying to talk to him, and Wilding never got tired of it.
But no matter who he was talking to, his eyes would inadvertently look in the direction of Xu Weishen and Dong Jiaxue, without any concealment. Anyway, no one knew who his real target was at the moment.
Perhaps it was because his gaze was too intense, Xu Weishen noticed it clearly.
He went forward with the woman again, trying to find out the meaning of that look intentionally or unintentionally.
"My Lord Viscount, I wonder what brings you here today?"
Hearing the man's indirect hint, Wilding took a sip of the champagne in his hand meaningfully, looked around at everyone, and finally set his eyes on Dong Jiaxue, and his words were full of deep meaning.
"Haha, isn't it because my father always thinks I'm an eyesore at home and always sends me out to socialize?"
It was already known in the wide circle that Duke Watson had been arranging blind dates for his son recently. When faced with Wilding's response, everyone subconsciously fantasized about the marriage.
Many women present also looked very interested, but Dong Jiaxue just smiled and nodded when she heard it, without any unusual behavior, and still held Xu Weishen's arm tightly.
"I wonder if Miss Dong has anyone of similar age who can help me escape this bitter sea of marriage as soon as possible."
Seeing that the woman still had this attitude, Wilding stepped up his efforts and asked her questions directly, trying to test to what extent the woman could hide her emotions.
Xu Weishen did not interrupt, but his eyes had already moved to the woman, with some questions in his eyes; but the loving look in his eyes could not be hidden.
Entrusted by Jiang Luoning, Wilding has secretly investigated information about this man and learned from various channels that he has always been a very career-oriented person and is also very clean in terms of emotional relationships. Even though he is in a high position and the women around him are very complicated, he has always kept himself clean and has never been involved in any scandals or bad influences.
Even before Dong Jiaxue, Xu Weishen had never brought any woman to appear in public, let alone publicly announce the identity of his fiancée.
Everyone was very curious about the woman who suddenly appeared. Some said that the two had been engaged since childhood, some said that Xu Weishen fell in love with the woman at first sight, and there were even more outrageous discussions that the man had remained a virgin for so many years just for this Dong Jiaxue.
But these are just speculations of the public after all. What is the truth? The parties involved have not made any response so far.
"My Lord Viscount, although I am a young lady from an aristocratic family in the imperial capital, I have been studying in a foreign country and may not be able to help you with your request!"
Dong Jiaxue's reply was still calm and graceful; it was really hard to associate her with the arrogant and domineering woman described by Chen Xu, who dared to speak out even in AX company.
What exactly happened to cause her to change so drastically? This is what everyone in the monitoring room is wondering.
But no matter how they investigated, they could not find any trace of Dong Jiaxue's disappearance. It was not until she rejected Wilding just now that Jiang Luoning suddenly reacted.
"Chen Xu! Do you know what happened to Dong Jiaxue before she returned to the Dong family?"
Hearing the question, Chen Xu shook his head blankly, confused. In his previous life, his impression of women was still limited to the familiarity they had at the engagement party, and he couldn't recall anything else. And in this life, before Dong Jiaxue showed up at the Dong family, he hadn't even heard of her existence, let alone any knowledge of her.
Fu Linxiao was always paying attention to the little girl's actions, and he immediately understood Jiang Luoning's thoughts at the moment. He immediately approached the little girl and lowered his voice, "Ning'er, do you think they knew each other before Dong Jiaxue returned to the capital?"
Although the man's words were directed to the little girl, they were still heard by everyone in the quiet room.
Jiang Linghao was bewildered, unsure if the man's words reflected the little girl's true feelings. Still, he spoke with some disbelief, "That's impossible. Hasn't Xu Weishen always been in Country A? How could they have crossed paths before?"
"Brother! Don't you think that if Dong Jiaxue had just grown up in an orphanage, those methods and practices of using public opinion and news would have been a bit too rigorous? If we hadn't installed surveillance cameras in the hospital corridors, we wouldn't have been able to find out it was her who did it!"
When the matter of Dong family's biological daughter was exposed, Jiang Linghao suddenly came to his senses.
That thing was indeed done so flawlessly that even Helian Rui couldn't find any clues; just as Jiang Luoning said, how could a naive little girl be so thorough.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became depressing again. The investigation of the matter had taken a new direction, but the feeling of unease was getting heavier. They had planned to return to the imperial capital after resolving the issue of Jiang Yichen in the crew, but this sudden change made them a little overwhelmed.
