However, because he controls most of the world's oil, he has connections and a pivotal position around the globe.
Therefore, Zhan Xiuchen would not easily offend Anya's father if he could avoid offending him.
........
After hurriedly leaving the club, Zhan Xiuchen remembered something.
The phone is still with Ah Feng.
However, he didn't have time to go back and get his phone.
Zhan Xiuchen understood the meaning of the text.
Shi Nian wouldn't easily ask him for help.
Moreover, Ah Feng said that he was busy, but Shi Nian insisted on looking for him, which must have been a major event that completely panicked Shi Nian.
So he had to get there immediately.
"squeak!"
After getting in the car, I started the engine and the vehicle sped towards the slums!
........
Meanwhile, Shi Nian did not receive a call from Zhan Xiuchen.
She gritted her teeth.
So why did she think Zhan Xiuchen would come?
He has his own things to do.
Why should her affairs be prioritized?
It was that man's words again—that the woman he liked couldn't possibly be someone else—that made her start to have all sorts of wild thoughts.
Shi Nianqiang suppressed his chaotic thoughts and straightened his back.
She was really panicked, which is why she wanted to ask others for help.
In fact, no matter what happened, she always carried it all on her own.
No one can be relied upon.
Except for herself.
Whether in the past or present.
So what she needs to do now is to solve these thorny issues one by one!
Instead of thinking about asking this person or that person for help and waiting for others to solve her problems.
Shi Nian went home first.
Grandma Shi was already asleep, but Grandpa Shi had woken up again.
Upon seeing Shi Nian return, he immediately asked her anxiously if she had found Xiao Cao.
"Little Grass, what's wrong with my brain? Little Grass has been missing for so long, how come I didn't notice anything wrong?" Grandpa Shi patted his head reproachfully, "Is my brain getting fuzzy too?"
Shi Nian comforted Grandpa Shi, saying that there was already news about Xiao Cao.
“Xiaocao is fine, that’s good.” Shi Nian said, “She’s with Xiujuan. Grandpa, you go to sleep first. I’m going to Xiujuan’s now. Maybe I’ll bring Xiaocao back tomorrow morning.”
Seeing that Grandpa Shi was about to ask more questions, Shi Nian immediately made an excuse, saying that she was about to go pick someone up. Only then did Grandpa Shi say, "Then hurry up and bring Xiao Cao back."
........
After leaving home, Shi Nian went to the home of the staff member in charge of monitoring the slums.
To prevent riots and other incidents from occurring in the slums, Country A installed cameras throughout the slums and assigned personnel to monitor and manage them.
The surveillance cameras in the area where Grandpa and Grandma Shi lived were managed by someone from Shi Nian's village, whom Shi Nian happened to know.
When Shi Nian found the man, he was sleeping.
After being woken up by Shi Nian, the man looked sleepy and was very unhappy when he heard that Shi Nian wanted to check the surveillance footage.
"It's so late, why are you checking the surveillance footage? Can't you check it tomorrow? I'm already asleep. What kind of nonsense is this, waking me up in the middle of the night..."
Shi Nian ignored the man's extremely unpleasant expression.
She had only one request: she had to see the surveillance footage.
Originally, this person would never have shown it to Shi Nian; they would have simply kicked Shi Nian out.
But things are different now.
Rumors that Shi Nian had climbed up to the wealthy in the upscale neighborhood had already spread throughout the area.
The person in charge of the surveillance didn't want to offend Shi Nian, so they had no choice but to turn on the surveillance for her.
With so many days of surveillance, so dense and comprehensive, there was simply no way to start.
This is why Shi Nian sought out Zhan Xiuchen first.
She knew that Zhan Xiuchen had connections and resources.
He could find someone much faster than this method of sifting through so many surveillance cameras.
........
There are countless surveillance videos. If we were to check them day by day, we probably wouldn't finish even by tomorrow morning.
Shi Nian first found the surveillance footage of the last time she saw Xiao Cao.
From the surveillance footage, Shi Nian saw that shortly after she left, a small figure also left her grandparents' house.
It was clearly a blade of grass.
The little grass went in one direction and soon disappeared.
That area was a blind spot for the surveillance cameras, so the cameras couldn't track where Xiaocao went afterward.
Shi Nian stared in the direction the grass had gone.
Where is Little Grass going?
And it happened at just the right time, right after she left. It was clearly an attempt to avoid her and not want her to know.
Shi Nian went through all the memories of that day.
Suddenly, a white light flashed through Shi Nian's mind.
My breath hitched!
She thought of something!
That day, she had a conflict with Ying Yuanyuan.
Ying Yuanyuan even made sarcastic remarks to her!
Xiaocao was present the whole time.
So, could it be...?
Did Xiaocao go to find Ying Yuanyuan after that?
After all, since Grandpa Shi came, neither she nor Xiaocao argued with Ying Yuanyuan anymore.
Given Xiaocao's personality, it's not impossible that she might feel wronged because of Ying Yuanyuan's words and then go to find Ying Yuanyuan again!
And what a coincidence!
The direction Xiaocao was heading was the direction of the large villa that Ying Yuanyuan had built for her family!
........
Splash, splash.
The rain poured down.
After Shi Nian checked the surveillance footage and discovered that Xiao Cao had likely gone to Ying Yuanyuan's house, the gloomy sky finally broke apart with a thunderous roar!
Shi Nian braved the heavy rain and ran all the way to Ying Yuanyuan's house.
