Chapter 5 Chapter 5 The villain's critical attack!
Lin Li finished her words and did not add anything else, waiting seriously for Mr. Fu's response.
After graduating, Lin Li came to work at the Yating Group. She was reliable and capable, and gradually rose to her current position as Mr. Fu's personal secretary. Over the years, in addition to work matters, Lin Li also helped Mr. Fu with his personal affairs.
Fu Mingya devoted herself to her career and did not have many personal matters to deal with. The only person who bothered her was probably her only daughter.
When Ji Ning got into a car accident, the Ji family was in chaos.
Doctors issued critical illness notices countless times. Lin Li recalled that during those days, her life was as normal as before and she never shed a tear for her daughter.
The group's employees privately complained about Fu Mingya's cold-bloodedness, and colleagues who were close to Lin Li secretly inquired whether Mr. Fu was really so heartless that he didn't even care about the safety of his own daughter.
Lin Li was not sure. In fact, she had no idea what kind of person Mr. Fu was. Cold, arrogant, and a ruthless capitalist. These negative descriptions combined together to form the image of Fu Mingya in public.
It was also during the days when Ji Ning was unconscious that the little princess disappeared.
Few people know that Fu Mingya is a grandmother.
Sometimes, Lin Li suspected that for Ms. Fu, covering up the scandal of Ji Ning having a child out of wedlock was even more important than whether she could survive the crisis. But no matter what, Lin Li kept her mouth shut and never asked about her boss's private affairs. It was also because of this that Fu Mingya trusted her and gave her the task of finding the little girl.
In a blink of an eye, three and a half years have passed.
Lin Li never forgot this mission, and finally, she brought new news.
"What?" Fu Mingya's hand paused on the file on his desk.
"About three days ago, a variety show called "Change Life" held a guest audition in Yongrui Village, Nancheng. The camera accidentally captured a little girl. There were comments saying that the little girl looked very much like the child star Ji Ning."
Lin Li paused for a moment when she spoke here. She noticed that Fu Mingya was reluctant to mention the fact that Ji Ning had been a child star.
"The child's situation at home is difficult. The family is poor and the elders favor boys over girls. They don't even shy away from it in front of the camera."
"Last night, a public welfare anchor from a self-media went to Yongrui Village again. It was strange that the child's mother suddenly changed her attitude for some reason and said she was celebrating the child's third birthday. I found a clip of this public welfare live broadcast online and the child's mother didn't look very natural."
"Mr. Fu, I have a clip here."
Lin Li opened the video clip on the tablet and handed it forward with both hands. Seeing that Mr. Fu had no intention of taking it, she gently placed it on the desk.
Fu Mingya said coldly: "Ji Ning had a car accident during the period when he was negotiating the acquisition with Cen Tan Group."
Lin Li immediately understood what Mr. Fu meant.
When Yating acquired Cenqin Group, it happened to be the time when Ji Ning had a car accident. On the surface, the outside world complimented Mr. Fu for being a man who could handle big things. Even though something happened at home, he still completed the acquisition plan in an orderly manner.
Time flies so fast. That was the spring three years ago. In the blink of an eye, three and a half years have passed. If the child in Yongrui Village is really a little girl, the age does not match.
"I understand. But if the child was really abducted or bought by the Zhao family, it wouldn't be difficult for them to deliberately conceal the child's date of birth," Lin Li said. "Should I continue to investigate?"
"No need." Fu Mingya retracted his gaze and continued to look through the documents. "Get out."
Lin Li was stunned for a moment, then left the office, just in time to see the elevator stop at the top floor.
The elevator door opens.
Ji Ning came to the group because she had an appointment with her mother to have lunch together in the early morning.
She had to choose a wedding gift for Bai Hui, but she didn't know what she liked. When she mentioned this at home, Fu Mingya took the initiative to suggest going shopping with her.
At this moment, Ji Ning and Lin Li looked at each other face to face.
Lin Li hasn't seen her for a long time.
Perhaps it was because of preconceived notions, the arrogant young lady at this moment was hiding a layer of gentle skin, which was quite incongruous.
After they nodded politely to each other, the sound of Ji Ning's footsteps gradually faded away.
Lin Li turned around and looked at her slender figure.
She vaguely remembered that the last time she saw Ji Ning was also here.
That year, when Ji Ning was only 20 years old, a fierce quarrel broke out between mother and daughter in this office. Ji Ning did not lose her temper. She seemed to be happy to see her mother being irritated. Her lips were raised, her eyes were calm and provocative, and she was full of vitality.
Lin Li has already realized that Mr. Fu does not want her to continue investigating the news about the little girl.
Indeed, even if we continue to investigate the identities of the children in Yongrui Village, there is a high possibility that our happiness will end in vain.
But has Ms. Fu ever been happy?
Does she really want to find the little princess back?
…
The production team of "Change Your Life" is still looking for other suitable guests. The official Weibo account has pinned the event, hoping that netizens will actively recommend candidates. The audition in Yongrui Village should have passed quietly.
The charity live broadcast by host Donut has ended. The trip to Yongrui Village ended with a happy ending. The number of people online has not been high, and the number of fans has not increased much.
However, the Internet is a double-edged sword. When Donut posted the edited vlog on the short video homepage, many discordant voices gradually emerged.
【It’s so funny, the unscrupulous anchor tried to get it, but failed. 】
[Nowadays, these so-called self-media bloggers wish they could grow a camera on their heads. Do they have any bottom line? 】
[Although the baby is very cute, it is better not to increase the click traffic for the anchor, as this will encourage unhealthy trends...]
[No wonder the mother is angry. Our family is not that poor. Who would like to be described as a poor family receiving relief and put on the Internet for people to comment on?]
When Donut went to Yongrui Village this time, Qin Meilan not only scolded her with nasty words, but also kicked her out. She was already upset enough, and now she was misunderstood, and she even lost fans.
She is not a big anchor, but she was provoked and did not want to suffer a loss, so she impulsively uploaded the video of the second half taken by her companions.
There is no editing, no cute special effects or dubbing, the video is obviously filmed secretly, and the camera is occasionally blocked by lush branches and leaves.
However, the little dumpling's situation was magnified again and again.
In that heartwarming and beautiful vlog, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Zhuzhu's eyes were almost shining and full of stars as she stared at that cheap cake.
At that time, her family didn't cut the cake, and everyone thought that they wanted to wait until the guests left before sharing it with the family. This was normal, after all, no matter how plain the cake looked, it was not something you could eat every day...
However, unexpectedly, in the secretly filmed video taken by the anchor team, as soon as the team left and the cake was cut, Zhuzhu couldn't get on the root wheel.
One of the three candles was taken away and thrown on the ground.
The real protagonist of that carefully prepared birthday party was my younger brother.
Birthdays are fake, and birthday wishes are fake too.
Little Tuanzi was unable to eat the cake, and the little rabbit pendant in his hand was thrown to the ground.
Her brother stepped hard on the little rabbit.
If the adults in the family had not condoned this for a long time, how could the naughty child have the courage to bully his sister like this?
The tone of the comments section changed instantly.
[From the angle of the video, I could only see the baby squatting on the ground, gently wiping the dust off the bunny's face. I couldn't tell if she was crying...]
[I feel so bad, but I can’t do anything about it. This is the case for many sibling families, especially left-behind children, who suffer even more.]
【I was also a left-behind child when I was young, so I can especially understand this kid. 】
The anchor team didn't expect that the carefully produced video did not go viral, but the behind-the-scenes footage they posted online in anger became a hit immediately.
…
There is only one president's office and conference room on the top floor of the Yating Group. In addition to the secretary, there is also an assistant.
The floor-to-ceiling windows in the office were cleaned to a shine, and looking from a short distance away, it looked like a harmonious scene of a loving mother and a filial daughter.
Lin Li was in charge of ordering meals for the boss. She would occasionally glance around the office, then look away without any emotion.
Very professional.
"Jining, wait a moment," Fu Mingya said, "I can leave after I sign these documents."
Ji Ning sat on the soft sofa, the scented tea was still hot, emitting heat and fragrance.
She used the cup lid to wipe the rim of the cup, back and forth, boredly. An inappropriate noise was heard and Fu Mingya looked over with displeasure.
Ji Ning thinks back to those days.
When she first woke up, she was completely confused. Just like a scene from a TV series, she cautiously asked who she was and where she was.
At first, the doctor suspected it was a sequela of trauma. After several consultations, it was determined that the amnesia had nothing to do with psychology and was entirely a disease caused by brain trauma.
During those days, Ji Ning pieced together her memories through photo albums and childhood items brought by people around her.
It's a pity that it was in vain.
Even after returning to her country and returning to a familiar environment, it still did not help her condition at all.
She couldn't remember even a second of it.
At the sound, Fu Mingya raised his head again.
In the corner of her eye, she saw Ji Ning walking around the office and taking the tablet from the desk.
That was what Lin Li had left just now. After unlocking it, the interface stayed on the video that had not been opened yet.
Fu Mingya stood up and said, "It's getting late, let's go eat first."
She took the tablet away, almost snatching it away.
Before Ji Ning could react, the tablet was thrown back on the table.
Ji Ning raised her eyebrows in confusion.
Lin Li, who was outside the office, was keeping a close eye on what was happening inside. She immediately contacted the driver and informed him of the restaurant's address and location.
I always have trouble communicating with my mother when I'm with her.
Especially the process of the elevator slowly going up to the top floor, the waiting time is very long.
Ji Ning took out her cell phone and scrolled through it, then casually clicked on Weibo.
Some hot topics will be pushed to the top of the trending search page.
She generally doesn't like to look at the top trending searches, but rather the low-ranking entries below, which are the real data found by tap searches.
She glanced at a few entries and was finally attracted by an unfamiliar one -
Little bitter melon baby.
Ji Ningdian opened the entry and his eyes widened.
A soft and sticky little man attacks head-on.
