Chapter 1136 Doubt and Explanation
Secretary Liu broke out in a cold sweat instantly.
He said goodbye to the other side with a paralyzed face, then slowly put away his phone, looked directly at Shen Pianxian and said calmly,
"I'm not talking about the boss, I'm talking about Yan Qi who came here with us."
Shen Pianxian raised the corners of his lips without any emotion.
"Really? Why mention 'Miss Chen' when talking to Yan Qi?"
"I'm not familiar with Yan Qi."
The girl tilted her head and looked over with a hint of nonchalance.
Secretary Liu was sweating more and more.
Even if he could handle things normally, he couldn't help feeling anxious and regretful under Shen Pianpian's gaze.
What is he doing in this corridor saying this! Isn't this just asking for trouble with the boss?
Before he could find a suitable explanation, a deep and hoarse voice suddenly came from behind him.
"You go first."
Secretary Liu turned around hurriedly and saw Cheng Zhiyuan standing at the door of the room, with his shirt sleeves rolled up and his collar open. He had a somewhat indifferent expression, and his eyes only passed through him to look at Shen Pianpian, looking a little tired.
Noticing his gaze, Cheng Zhiyuan glanced over indifferently.
Secretary Liu immediately lowered his head apologetically, then turned and quickly entered the elevator. Soon, only the two people, staring at each other, were left in the empty corridor.
Cheng Zhiyuan looked at her with a smile in his eyes.
"Come in, I'll explain it to you."
Shen Pianpian looked at him for a while, slowly lowered her eyelashes, and entered his room.

"I've been looking into some things."
Cheng Zhiyuan sat down on the sofa, and Shen Pianpian was opposite him, her whole body nestled in the soft sofa, her eyes staring at him seriously, but the man slowly looked away before continuing,
"I've been investigating this for many years, but only recently have I found some clues and clues."
He picked up an opened box of cigarettes from the table. There were already several cigarette butts in the ashtray. They must have been smoked when he was discussing work with Secretary Liu just now.
The man took out a cigarette very skillfully, but paused before lighting it and put it down again.
"It's actually very simple. It's about the cause of my parents' death."
He let out a sigh and said in a more relaxed tone,
"My mother was a core researcher at the institute. Later, on her way back from a nuclear test abroad, her plane exploded and crashed into the sea. Only one arm was returned. The rest of her limbs were said to have been shattered and could not be put back together."
He had a calm expression, and under the light his eyes were as deep as the sea, with a bloody undercurrent surging beneath the calm.
Shen Pianxian couldn't help but shudder slightly when she heard this, but then she heard him continue,
"After that, my father couldn't take it anymore. He flew all over the country and abroad for this case all day long, barely getting a good night's sleep. Finally, while pursuing another lead, he died in a war-torn zone abroad. Not a single piece of his remains remained. When his body was brought back, it was completely mangled, unrecognizable. It was hard to even tell what it looked like before."
"I was fifteen years old that year. Less than three months passed between seeing my mother's arm and seeing my father's body. My grandfather was afraid I'd become a target, so he quickly sent me to the military camp. I was determined to get to the bottom of my parents' deaths, so I spent many years in the military camp, eventually rising through the ranks and becoming an officer."
"But by the time I was able to start investigating, several years had passed. Many clues had been erased, making it very difficult to investigate. Only recently did I finally get some clues."
