Chapter 108 Zhong Family
Du Ruo asked Yuan Tingchuan to tell Mr. Li that he was accidentally injured when he was out and was recuperating at a friend's house. He would visit him again when he had time in the future.
I called Li Anze again, and Li Anze sounded quite worried on the phone.
"How did you get hurt? Did your trip go wrong? Why didn't you call me? I asked the driver to pick you up."
"I'm fine now. I've seen a doctor. I'm staying at my friend's place for now. I'll come to see you when I'm healed and we'll talk." Du Ruo really had something to say to Li Anze. She originally wanted to wait until she came back from the country before talking about it, but she didn't expect this to happen.
Li Anze's voice was very low, but he was as generous and gentle as always: "I'll wait for you, don't worry, it takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone, external injuries need to be healed slowly, don't leave a root of disease. If it's not convenient for your friend, I invite you to stay at the Li family for a while, play chess with the old man, go fishing, and the old man will have a companion."
Du Ruo agreed with a smile and hung up the phone with Li Anze. Then she heard someone behind her say, "When did you become so familiar with Li Anze?"
Du Ruo smiled and looked at Yuan Tingchuan: "Mr. Yuan has been sending people to follow me. My every move cannot escape your scrutiny. Do you still need to ask me?"
That's why Yuan Tingchuan was puzzled. His people had been following Du Ruo, and Du Ruo's every move was under his control. This was his habit. He was taught from childhood that one should not let things outside of his control.
It is better to take precautions before they happen. This is a principle engraved in Yuan Tingchuan's bones.
But this incident made him a little confused. He had known Li Anze for many years. He was a natural born customer, and his sense of touch was much more sensitive than that of ordinary people. He seemed gentle and kind, but his mind was extremely difficult to touch. Li Anze was not a casual person, and this incident revealed a hint of weirdness.
Yuan Tingchuan glanced at Du Ruo and it seemed like she would not reveal it, which was a bit unusual.
Du Ruo didn't care what Boss Yuan guessed, he couldn't find out anyway.
After she regained some mobility, she would run to the auction house every now and then to watch the excitement.
I would bid occasionally, but there weren't many bids.
She seems to be very rich now, but actually she is very poor. Money is needed everywhere in the company, and the money earned is invested in the company. The company is growing rapidly, and that was all built with real money.
When she called Ji Bailin before, Ji Bailin sighed and said, "Sister, you are great. Your Shengshi Group is developing very rapidly. I heard that Shang Yi of your company is invincible in the stock market. Where did you find such a treasure? It is simply a treasure pot."
Du Ruo smiled and said, "I'm lucky in this respect. I came across it by chance while eating at KFC."
Ji Bailin said enviously: "I'll go there someday, maybe I'll have the same good luck. But, are you really unable to come to my engagement party?"
"I can't help it. My leg is injured. I can't go there in a wheelchair. That way I can't help you and might even cause trouble. Wait until you get married. I will definitely go there when you get married."
"Then let's make a deal, you must come to my wedding." Ji Bailin said helplessly. His sister was injured, not because of something else, so he couldn't force her to do it. He could only talk about it later.
"By the way, sister, I want to ask you something. When you went to Myanmar, were you with Yuan Tingchuan?"
Du Ruo said calmly, "Yes, I was able to return safely thanks to Mr. Yuan. The situation there is very chaotic and dangerous. I am thinking about not going there anymore."
Ji Bailin's voice was a little hesitant, and he stammered, "Sister, did you meet Mr. Zhong when you were in Myanmar?"
Du Ruo was a little surprised: "Mr. Zhong? Oh, I know who you are talking about. I met him once when I was in Yu City. What's wrong?"
Ji Bailin's voice was somewhat sad: "Mr. Zhong had an accident in Myanmar, and the Zhong family is in chaos now. I know you were there too, so I asked about it."
Just asking? No way? Although Du Ruo had only known this cheap brother for a short time, she knew that her brother was not a naive person. How could he just ask casually?
"Did something happen? That's impossible, right? People like Mr. Zhong often take a lot of people out, so how could something happen? But it's really chaotic over there, could it be that they encountered armed forces?" Du Ruo's voice was filled with confusion, as if she really didn't know about this.
Ji Bailin sighed and said, "No one knows the details. None of the people who went with them came back alive. We don't even know what happened, so I want to ask you."
This time Du Ruo was really surprised. None of the people who went with him came back alive? That's not right, right? Wasn't it the man named Wei and the few people with him who were wiped out?
"No way? Did Mr. Zhong only take two or three people with him? When I saw him in the Jade Market, he was surrounded by people. How could he go to a place like Myanmar without any people?"
"How is that possible? I heard that they brought more than a dozen people with them. I don't know what happened. Not only did no one come back alive, but several of them disappeared without a trace. This also includes Mr. Zhong's personal secretary Wei. He has disappeared without a trace."
Hearing Ji Bailin's words, Du Ruo's eyes flickered: "Is there something wrong with Secretary Wei? Didn't the Zhong family investigate?"
"We have checked, but we have found no clues. The Zhong family now suspects that the death of Mr. Zhong is related to Secretary Wei. They are now investigating who sent him. This chess move is brilliant. Secretary Wei and Mr. Zhong have been together for more than ten years. The chess pieces have been set for so many years. The person who plays chess must be very patient."
"I have met Mr. Zhong once. He is a very kind elder. It is really a pity to see him like this. Are you familiar with his family?" Du Ruo asked casually.
Ji Bailin said: "Mr. Zhong is an elder of my fiancée, and a very close elder, so I want to ask."
Du Ruo understood: "I didn't see Mr. Zhong, how about I ask Mr. Yuan for you?"
Yuan Tingchuan had entered the room a long time ago and was sitting on the sofa drinking tea from a cup.
Hearing this, he glanced at Du Ruo and saw that Du Ruo's eyes were full of smiles. This woman was doing it on purpose, so boring.
After hanging up the phone with Ji Bailin, Du Ruo asked with a smile: "What's going on with Mr. Zhong? How come the whole army was wiped out? This shouldn't be the case, right?"
The man was holding the teacup and just drinking tea. The hot steam stained his handsome eyebrows and eyes, making him look illusory and unreal.
