This has made the matter somewhat confusing.
They had received reliable information that Mr. Hua Shancheng had indeed moved to Nancheng to settle down many years ago, so why couldn't they find him?
So they went to ask around in several neighboring streets, and sure enough, some people opened up and told them about the events of that year.
Mr. Hua Shancheng came to the southern part of the city twenty years ago and settled in that very alley. He was a skilled doctor with a kind heart and was deeply loved by the people in the surrounding area.
However, he suddenly disappeared ten years ago, and his son, who had studied abroad, was convicted and taken away. I heard he was sent to a farm in Northwest China for reform.
Despite hearing multiple accounts, Shang Ziming and the others were ultimately unable to ascertain the specifics of Hua Shancheng's whereabouts.
That night, the group broke into the street archives, but still couldn't find any information about Hua Shancheng, as if he really didn't exist.
This morning, they went to the local police station again to continue their inquiries, but still couldn't find any relevant information.
Something unusual must be going on.
Their investigation hit a bottleneck, and Fang Minghao then remembered that he had a distant relative in Nancheng, so he went to find him.
The Shu family has been operating in Nancheng for many years and has some influence. They wanted to ask Shu Zhendong if he had any connections to help them make connections.
On the Shu family's side, the group chatted happily.
Xu Xiuyun was also in a flurry of activity. When she arrived at the clinic, she saw her simple-minded son serving tea and water to a young girl.
"Bowen, what are you doing here? Why don't you go home after work? Don't you know your family is waiting for you?" Xu Xiuyun looked at Shu Bowen sternly.
Startled by his mother's voice, Shu Bowen immediately looked up, flustered, and said, "I, I'll go back right away."
"Bowen." Su Peipei called out to Shu Bowen in a sweet voice. The sound of "Bowen" made Shu Bowen's heart tremble, and his face turned even redder.
Su Peipei was very satisfied. Sure enough, he was still as innocent and easy to flirt with as he had been in her previous life.
"Auntie, please don't blame Shu Bowen. He only brought me to the clinic because he saw I was injured. He's a good person." Su Peipei said earnestly, her eyebrows slightly furrowed with anxiety, as if she was afraid that Xu Xiuyun had wrongly blamed Shu Bowen.
Xu Xiuyun glanced coldly at Su Peipei. Seeing her attire, she realized Su Peipei was indeed quite scheming. She was probably after Su Peipei's simple-minded son. And yet, her son was so clueless that he fell right into her trap. Sigh...
“Of course I know my son is of good character, but he is still young and doesn’t know the dangers of the world. This guy who’s practically throwing himself at me…” Xu Xiuyun paused slightly and sneered, “…can’t be any good.”
"Bowen, let's go. We have guests at home, and they're all waiting for you." After saying that, Xu Xiuyun gestured for Shu Bowen to leave.
Shu Bowen isn't really stupid. Because of his father's connections, there are women around him who want to get close to him, but he just doesn't like them and has a strict upbringing, so he keeps himself pure.
Today, he was truly stunned by Su Peipei's beauty at first sight. It's only natural for a young man to be attracted to someone, and so he indulged himself for a moment.
After being scolded by his mother, he naturally calmed down.
Su Peipei watched in disbelief as Shu Bowen walked away without looking back, and hurriedly called out, "Bowen..."
The tone of voice is so convoluted and winding.
Shu Bowen's back stiffened slightly, but he still didn't turn around. However, he felt a little uncomfortable. This woman was really frivolous.
