Fortunately, Gu Jingxing suddenly heard Li Zhanting's phone ringing.
Li Zhanting answered the phone, his voice cold and deep, "I've given you plenty of time. Don't tell me you still don't have a single clue!"
His cold and distant voice carried an irresistible kingly aura; this was the first time Gu Jingxing had ever felt such a terrifying presence from Li Zhanting.
But what exactly is that scumbag dad investigating? Is it really that important to him?
On the other end of the phone, the subordinate respectfully said, "Master Ting, we have investigated all the millions of women named Liuli across the country individually, but we haven't found anyone who perfectly matches your requirements; we've even checked all trademarks, shops, and pen names related to Liuli one by one, and still no one fits the criteria. So, Master Ting..."
Li Zhanting's brows furrowed, and a fierce aura emanated from him, as if he could devour his surroundings.
No? How could there not be?
He was absolutely certain that night; she was indeed talking about Liuli.
In the past five years, he has searched almost the entire capital city in order to find her, and even spent the Li family's secret forces to search the whole country. How could he not find her whereabouts?
Li Zhanting gripped the phone tightly, feeling as if a thorn had been plunged into his heart.
He truly couldn't imagine what she had gone through in the past five years that made it impossible for the Li family's secret service to find her.
The subordinate was trembling with fear, but finally spoke the truth, "Could it be that the mysterious lady gave you a fake name? Or perhaps, this 'Liuli' isn't an ordinary name at all?"
Not a person's name? A glint flashed in Li Zhanting's eyes.
Now that all the overt forces have investigated, is it possible that the word "Liuli" is a code name for a mysterious organization?
Suddenly, a dark light flashed in Li Zhanting's deep eyes.
Speaking of dark forces, the most famous one in the world with the name "Liuli" is none other than his old rival, Liuli Pavilion!
A subtle, unsettling light flickered in his deep eyes, and his voice was cold and stern. "If you can't find it on the surface, then investigate through the covert forces! Investigate any international organization or force whose name contains the character 'Liuli'!"
The subordinate hesitated for a moment, then answered decisively, "Yes, Master Ting!"
After hanging up the phone, Li Zhanting's cold face remained clouded with gloom.
As long as he can find her, he will wipe out any secret forces, even if they are wiped out by this very day!
The man exuded a heavy aura, and Gu Jingxing, hiding behind the desk, didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Who exactly is this Liuli? Why is her scumbag father going to such lengths to find her?
Could it be that this woman was the reason why her scumbag father abandoned him and his mother back then?
Just then, Li Zhanting walked to the desk, sat down in the chair, and habitually looked at the photo frame on the table, only to suddenly notice that the photo frame seemed to have been moved.
Looking at the photo album next to him, he saw that it had been looked through. His gaze darkened, and his deep eyes narrowed.
The servants in the Li family all knew his habits: he would always put things back in their original place after using them, and the only person who tidied his room was the Li family's butler. He would never rummage through his own things.
Li Zhanting moved his feet, and suddenly, he heard a faint sound coming from behind the desk.
"Who goes there? Show yourself!" he roared in a low, deep voice.
Gu Jingxing, sitting behind his desk, couldn't help but shiver. He didn't want to go out; he felt guilty...
Li Zhanting surveyed the room, finally pinpointing his location, and got up to walk over.
Whoever it is, if he catches them, they're dead.
Hearing the approaching footsteps, Gu Jingxing knew he couldn't hide any longer. He gritted his teeth and jumped out, "Ha! Daddy! It's me!"
Li Zhanting paused, looking at his son who was smiling broadly in front of him, his handsome face showing a kind of pleasure after successfully playing a prank.
He was slightly taken aback, and his murderous aura vanished instantly.
Oh, it's his baby. Never mind then.
A gentle smile appeared on Li Zhanting's handsome face. He squatted down and looked at Gu Jingxing at the same time. "Zixiao, are you feeling better? Shouldn't you be resting in your room? Why did you have time to come to Daddy's room?"
Gu Jingxing quickly coughed twice, feigning weakness, to make himself appear less energetic.
He lowered his voice and said, "I'm fine, Daddy. Mom... no, Aunt Momo's medical skills are superb. Although I felt a little uncomfortable at first, I should be fully recovered now."
Li Zhanting felt relieved, turned around and walked to the desk, picking up the photo that had fallen to the ground. "Did you do all this?"
"I was just flipping through it casually." Gu Jingxing felt a little guilty, his mind racing as he quickly changed the subject:
"Oh, right, Daddy, can I ask you for a favor?"
"Oh? What is it?" Li Zhanting smiled with interest.
This was quite unexpected; my son actually took the initiative to make a request of me.
"I want to go back to kindergarten! With my little sister!" Gu Jingxing tilted his head and looked at him, his childish voice echoing the words.
Just now, he saw in that photo album that there were photos of his younger sister taken at the kindergarten in the capital.
He was certain that given his younger brother Li Zixiao's personality, he would never ask to go to kindergarten. However, he saw the message his mother sent him, saying that Zixiao's illness was caused by loneliness, and how could he not go to kindergarten?
Perfect timing, Mommy is about to transfer him to the prestigious kindergarten in the capital.
That way, he can spend every day with his younger siblings! Just thinking about it makes me happy!
