Mu Xiaocheng glanced at the caller ID and quickly answered the call.
The voice on the other end of the phone was that of an unfamiliar man.
"Hello, Miss Mu. I'm from the Changli Detective Agency. Our boss asked me to inform you that we need to meet at our usual place this Saturday at 5 PM."
"Okay, I understand."
After Mu Xiaocheng finished speaking, the other end of the phone hung up.
Changli Detective Agency is the detective agency that Mu Xiaocheng has always employed.
It was used to investigate her father's affairs.
She had previously contacted many detective agencies, but those agencies were either afraid of trouble or demanded exorbitant fees.
She searched almost every detective agency in the entire Yundu.
She has been working with the Common Sense Detective Agency for over a year now.
Mu Xiaocheng spent almost all the money she earned, aside from her daily expenses, on finding her father.
The detective agency is a significant expense.
But despite her persistent investigation, she has found nothing.
Hopefully, there will be some good news this month.
Meng Xunqian noticed that her face looked somewhat gloomy and she seemed to be in low spirits.
He asked aloud, "Whose call is that?"
Mu Xiaocheng puffed out her cheeks and didn't answer, but said softly, "Brother~ I'm hungry."
Meng Xunqian's lips curled up, a smile spreading across his handsome face.
Hot pot or skewers?
"Skewers!" Mu Xiaocheng perked up immediately, full of energy.
Meng Xunqian sighed silently; he knew it.
This little girl eats spicy food whenever she's unhappy!
Eat lots and lots of food!

It wasn't until Mu Xiaocheng and Meng Xunqian had been gone for quite a while that Ji Huaishen left Cobo and got into his car.
Shang Qi was sitting in the driver's seat, while Ji Huaishen was sitting in the back seat with his eyes closed, looking very tired.
"Sir, what should we do with this contract?"
The contract that Shang Qi mentioned was the betrothal gift that Ji Huaishen gave to the Meng family.
"Burn it." The person in the back seat parted their thin lips slightly, their voice utterly cold.
He knew the Meng family wouldn't accept the contract, but that didn't matter.
Anyway, SC and him will both be hers.
Shang Qi nodded and continued, "Gu Zuo and Gu You have returned from the organization and are waiting at Langming Garden."
Langming Garden was Ji Huaishen's residence in Yundu.
Ji Huaishen frowned, his deep, dark eyes filled with coldness.
"Did they run into trouble over there?"
"Yes, sir. It's Commander Lu again. His men have been preventing our organization's people from entering the country. Gu Zuo and Gu You had no choice but to come back first." Shang Qi couldn't help but admire his boss, who had guessed it so easily.
He was incredibly prescient.
"Let them stay in Yundu. I'll find some time to go and meet with that person from the Lu family."
Lu Beicheng was also an old friend of Ji Huaishen, but they were also enemies.
Shang Qi was puzzled. They hadn't done anything shady or illegal. On the contrary, they had helped the government a lot. So why was Commander Lu keeping a close eye on them?
Could it be true, as the rumors are circulating, that Commander Lu has feelings for you, sir?
Well……
It doesn't look like it.
"Sir, what's next..."
"Find me two good actors, a man and a woman, both in their fifties, who are not famous. Preferably not from Yunnan."
Ji Huaishen suddenly interrupted Shang Qi, his voice still cold.
"Yes." Shang Qi was puzzled as to why the master wanted to find actors, but...
The only person in the world who could make Mr. Mu act so strangely time and time again is Miss Mu.
