Chapter 798 Zheng Ye and Li Yuntan
“It’s delicious, delicious, delicious…”
"Is it really that delicious? Then I'll go back and continue making it tonight." Zhang Ru smiled from ear to ear.
Bai Songzhe: "No, no, I guess I won't be staying here for long and will be able to go home soon."
Zhang Ru: "I'll continue making it for you when I get home."
Bai Songzhe paused when he heard this, and Lu Yuanqiu couldn't help laughing at his look. Realizing that something was wrong, he quickly pretended to cough to fool the situation.
"By the way, it turns out that Xia Xia's classmate witnessed the car accident. It would have been better if we had found him earlier." Bai Songzhe changed the subject.
Lu Yuanqiu crossed his arms and was about to speak when Zhang Ru immediately stood up and gave him the chair, as if she thought they were going to talk about serious business.
Lu Yuanqiu sat on the chair: "But it's been over a month and there's still no news. I guess there's no progress."
Bai Songzhe sighed: "It's been ten years, the case must be difficult."
Lu Yuanqiu also sighed.
At this time, he looked at Lu Douqing who was secretly opening the fruit basket and shouted, "Third sister."
Lu Douqing immediately pulled her hand away and put it behind her back, as if she felt she had revealed her weakness. She pointed at the fruit basket and confessed: "I want to eat peaches."
"I didn't say you can't eat. Have you reported to school?"
Lu Douqing shook her head.
Lu Yuanqiu was confused: "What are you doing? Why aren't you going to report?"
Lu Douqing secretly pointed at Bai Songzhe.
Lu Yuanqiu understood what he meant. It was Bai Songzhe who had caused her jet lag during this period.
"Let's report together tomorrow. If you have time in a few days, come with me to the Chenxia campus to see Luo Qiang." Lu Yuanqiu said to his third sister.
Bai Qingxia: "Why are you looking for him?"
Lu Yuanqiu: "I'll ask my third sister to profile him again to see what the person looks like."
Bai Songzhe looked back at Lu Douqing at this time. He had treated her kindly as Xia Xia before, but now she looked at her as a complete stranger. However, Bai Songzhe had some impression that this girl seemed to have called him dad.
"Your third uncle's daughter?"
"right."
"I didn't see that."
It would be strange if he could see it, Lu Yuanqiu thought to himself.
Bai Qingxia took the remaining chicken soup from her father and put it away, then said to him, "You've been mistaking Third Sister for me these past few days."
Bai Songzhe: "...Maybe this girl's silly look is a bit like you when you were a child."
Lu Douqing frowned: "I'm not stupid."
"Okay, okay, I'm sorry." Bai Songzhe apologized with a smile.
"Can I be discharged from the hospital today?" he asked again.
Lu Yuanqiu nodded. "Yes, there's something, Uncle Bai. We need to go see Zhang Zhisheng in a few days. We signed an agreement. As long as you recover, he will return the White Rhino to you."
Bai Songzhe's face flashed with sarcasm: "White Rhino hasn't gone bankrupt yet?"
"Well... not yet." Lu Yuanqiu scratched his face: "But the sales of our Lu's instant noodles have surpassed White Rhino instant noodles."
Bai Songzhe lowered his head and said, "I still want to see Lao Zheng as soon as possible. After so many years, his investigation should have made some progress."
At this point, Lu Yuanqiu suddenly remembered something. He moved the chair under him closer to the bed and asked Bai Songzhe, "By the way, Uncle Bai, what exactly happened with Zheng Yifeng's mother's death?"
"How do you know?" Bai Songzhe was surprised.
Bai Qingxia lay on the edge of the bed, looking up at her father with a smile in her eyes.
"We saw the letter you wrote to your mother, a letter about your wedding anniversary. It turns out you have a small base at the White Rhino Company."
"Ah..." Shameful memories flooded into Bai Songzhe's mind, and he said in embarrassment.
Zhang Ru forced a faint smile upon hearing this.
However, Bai Songzhe was thicker-skinned than Lu Yuanqiu had imagined. He began to explain the real situation: "That year, Xia Xia was just three years old. Zheng Ye and Li Yuntan had divorced long ago. Li Yuntan later went to the United States. But one day, Li Yuntan's body was suddenly sent back to China, and Zheng Ye only then learned that she had died in the United States."
"The US said it was a local burglary, but the criminals were never caught. The police handled the situation very hastily. Zheng Ye ignored Li Yuntan's parents' objections and forced someone to perform an autopsy on her. I don't know the results of the autopsy, but because of it, Zheng Ye suddenly said he wanted to go to the US to investigate the truth. I was worried and planned to go with him, but before I even left the country, something happened to me."
"Autopsy?!" Lu Yuanqiu exclaimed in surprise.
"No wonder I heard that Zheng Ye and Li Yuntan's parents had a falling out over something. So it's because of this."
Bai Songzhe nodded: "That's why."
Lu Yuanqiu: "Uncle Bai, did you know... Zhang Zhisheng and Li Yuntan were first lovers and had a daughter?"
Bai Qingxia also looked at her father.
Bai Songzhe's expression changed. "I know. Zheng Ye and Zhang Zhisheng divorced because they found out that Li Yuntan had been hiding the fact that she and Zhang Zhisheng had a daughter."
I always feel that things are becoming clearer and clearer.
Lu Yuanqiu: "Does Zhang Zhisheng's first wife know about this?"
"He probably doesn't know. His wife's family has some background, and she was spoiled since she was a child. She's very willful. What would happen if she knew? I guess they would have divorced her long ago."
Lu Yuanqiu: "Zheng Yifeng will be going to the United States to visit his father in a few days."
Bai Songzhe: "Do you suspect Zheng Ye went back to the US? After he came back from his investigation there, he told me he hadn't found anything. If that's the case, then he might have gone back to the US. But why hasn't he been back for so long?"
Lu Yuanqiu naturally didn't know.
"Old White!"
Suddenly a shout came from the door of the ward.
Lu Yuanqiu recognized who it was.
Everyone looked over there and saw two people hurriedly walking in from the ward door, also carrying fruit baskets. They were Lu Tian and Su Xiaoya.
"After hearing from Lu Yuanqiu that you have recovered, Xiaoya and I rushed here from Lucheng immediately." Lu Tian enthusiastically put the fruit basket on the table and walked to the bedside with Su Xiaoya.
Su Xiaoya was surprised: "The look in his eyes is indeed different."
Bai Qingxia silently walked around the end of the bed. Lu Douqing, who was chewing a peach, looked up and saw Bai Qingxia standing next to Lu Yuanqiu. The two of them were exchanging crazy glances.
"I'm so happy, so happy!" Lu Tian held Bai Songzhe's hand and shook it up and down vigorously, making Bai Songzhe dazed.
"What are you doing?! I just recovered." Su Xiaoya raised her hand to hit him.
Bai Songzhe looked at the two of them and spoke hesitantly, "You... are Xiaoqiu's parents, right?"
Lu Tian frowned: "What are you saying? Don't you recognize us? We are good brothers..." He pointed his finger at Bai Songzhe's chest, then pointed at himself, and made a gesture of bending his thumbs.
Su Xiaoya: “…”
Bai Songzhe nodded: "You are Lu Laosi. I remember that the girl you went on your first blind date was the one your father asked me to introduce to you."
Lu Tian's face changed, and Su Xiaoya pulled his ears up instantly: "Haven't we been together since high school? You even went on a blind date without telling me?! And it was your first blind date?!"
Bai Songzhe on the bed was stunned: "You two were together at the time? Then why did you ask your father to find you a partner?"
Lu Yuanqiu's eyes were wide open, his head drooped forward, and he looked stunned.
Lu Tian was cornered in the ward. "Wife, wife! Shouldn't the question now be why Lao Bai doesn't remember us at all?! Can we talk about this later?"
Lu Yuanqiu said in a numb tone, "Uncle Bai has just recovered, so he will indeed forget some specific people and things, but now I think Dad, you should explain this matter to Mom more clearly."
Damn, I thought it was a meeting of in-laws, but it turned out to be the scumbag exposing himself on the scene, with Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia holding hands. It was all in vain.
