The people sent to investigate in Country L quickly sent back news.
When Jiang Jinyu received the message, his expression didn't change much, but his clenched fists betrayed his true emotions.
"Are you sure that couple doesn't have a daughter?" he asked in a deep voice.
After something was said on the other end, Jiang Jinyu's expression gradually darkened, then quickly returned to normal.
"Okay, I'll have someone transfer the final payment to you soon. Don't go back to China for a while; just travel around a few nearby countries, and I'll reimburse you for everything."
After hanging up the phone, he sat alone in the cold office, picking up his phone from the table several times and then quickly putting it down again.
His mind was filled with what Jiang Yanxin had said to him last time.
After a while, several documents on the table were swept to the floor.
"Damn it!" he said in a vicious and ruthless tone, his eyes darkening to the extreme.
Chen Wensheng betrayed him; Shen Linyue is not dead at all!
The Chen family is very kind...
He smirked, sat down again, picked up the landline phone to dial a number, but then stopped.
If Lin Yue is really Shen Lin Yue, then why hasn't she taken revenge and sent him to prison all this time? She even started going to school; does she have so much leisure time? Or does she want to see him panic and lose his composure after finding out everything?
Jiang Jinyu gradually calmed down and began to think about these issues.
After a long pause, they concluded that Chen Wensheng might have released Shen Linyue at the last minute, but he did not reveal that he was the employer.
Therefore, Shen Linyue has not yet traced the problem back to him.
Thinking of this, Jiang Jinyu's expression gradually relaxed, but then he realized something even more serious.
If Shen Linyue didn't die, then where did she live during the years she disappeared? Or was she hidden away by He Liyu?
Thinking of this, Jiang Jinyu's expression became even more serious. This matter had to be clarified, and it was also necessary to find out how much evidence He Liyu had gathered.
The Chen family members must also be punished.
Jiang Jinyu's eyes gradually turned cold.
...
He Liyu was forced to go on an emergency business trip.
On the way to the airport, Assistant Ji reported the situation.
“Li Yanxi does have some connection with the Chen family, but he is not Chen Wensheng’s grandson who received a heart transplant.”
“Our people found out that Chen Wensheng also has a twin sister. She was given away when she was very young. After Chen Wensheng died, the Chen family tried to find her to reunite with him, but she was eventually driven away. So, the two families are not closely related.”
"Li Yanxi was studying in another city at the time and did not know about this."
He Liyu, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them slightly upon hearing this: "Hmm, have the Chen family members been found?"
"We found out, but Chen Wensheng's wife remarried a few years ago. As for Chen Wensheng's son and daughter-in-law..." Assistant Ji paused slightly before saying, "Later, we found out that Chen Wensheng's grandson had a heart transplant and soon after, he developed rejection symptoms. He has been taking medication for many years, which is a bottomless pit. The young couple also divorced because of this, and Chen Wensheng's son has to work while taking care of the child."
However, over the years, the father and son have managed to get through it all. The Chen family's grandson has also gone to university, but unfortunately, he can't carry heavy loads or handle any intense emotional fluctuations.
He Liyu's brows furrowed, revealing no emotion. He tapped his knee lightly with his fingertips and pondered for a long time.
"Check the company where Chen Wensheng's son works."
As a qualified assistant, Assistant Ji naturally wouldn't ask the boss about his decisions.
“Okay, what a coincidence, the place we went to on this business trip was very close to his workplace.”
He Liyu raised an eyebrow but didn't ask any further questions, simply nodding slightly in response.
...
The day before the holiday went by quickly.
After returning home from school in the evening, the two children were informed by the housekeeper that He Liyu had gone on another business trip.
Shen Linyue turned her head to look at the boy who had been in high spirits since school ended, but now his brows were furrowed and his face was full of displeasure.
"Why is he going on a business trip at this time of year? Is he deliberately trying to go against me?" The young man sneered.
His excitement stemmed from wanting to inform Lao He that he planned to take Lin Yue to Nanshi during the New Year's Day holiday.
The original intention was not to leave him, an elderly man, alone at home for the holiday, but now, he's not lonely at all; he's even gone on a business trip.
Upon hearing the young master's complaint, Uncle Xiao couldn't help but defend He Liyu.
"The gentleman left in a hurry for this business trip, he didn't even pack two clothes, but he should be back by tomorrow night at the latest."
Upon hearing this, He Xiao pursed his lips even tighter.
Looking at the little guy's angry profile, Shen Linyue gently comforted him, "Let's make a call first and ask when he's coming back. Then we'll decide when to go to Nancheng. At worst, we can have him come to Nancheng to meet us."
He Xiao was easily appeased by her two words. He turned his head and looked down at her, considering the feasibility of the idea.
He finally nodded in agreement, "But you'll have to make the call."
Seeing He Xiao's serious expression, Shen Linyue thought, "..." It's just a phone call, there's no need to be so serious.
However, she did not refuse and nodded gently, "Okay, you can go upstairs and rest first. I'll tell you after I finish the call."
However, the boy coldly refused, saying, "Right now, I'll listen from the side."
Shen Linyue remained silent, looking at the stubborn young man, and in the end, she did not refuse.
The phone was answered after two rings, and He Liyu's slightly tired voice came through.
"Ah Yue, what happened?"
Shen Linyue glanced at the handsome young man beside her, whose face was expressionless, before gently beginning to speak about A Xiao.
He Liyu was taken aback. He recalled how A Yue had resolutely refused to meet her father-in-law last time. Why would she agree to A Xiao's request this time? Could it be because of what happened with A Yue's mother last time, which changed her mind?
"Are you sure you want to go? Is this a decision you've made after careful consideration?" He Liyu asked.
Before Shen Linyue could speak, He Xiao quickly snatched the phone away, his voice rang out in displeasure: "Old He, what do you mean? You're away on a business trip, but you won't let me take Linyue out to play?"
He Liyu fell silent as his son angrily questioned him.
Shen Linyue could probably understand He Liyu's speechlessness. She silently rubbed her forehead, took back her phone, and answered while comforting He Xiao.
"Yes, it's okay, I've thought it through." Her long eyelashes were slightly lowered, making it impossible to discern her emotions.
He Liyu pinched the bridge of his nose, his tone helpless. Afraid that if he said more, the boy would become resentful, he simply said, "Okay, don't be afraid. I'll try my best to get there to be with you."
Shen Linyue became interested: "What? You're not on a business trip in Nanshi, are you?"
"Yeah, I have some work to do here."
Listening to the two chatting, He Xiao felt more and more that something was wrong.
Was Lin Yue afraid of the unfamiliar city of Nancheng, or was she afraid of seeing her maternal grandfather?
Countless questions converged, and something seemed to flash through He Xiao's mind, but the thought passed by too quickly for him to grasp.
When their conversation finally ended, He Xiao looked down at Shen Linyue's small face and asked, "Do you know my maternal grandfather?"
