"Isn't this our Chu family's third young master?"
"You don't come here unless you have a reason. Speak up, what is it?"
Chu Wuyan touched his nose and asked cautiously, "What's wrong? Did I do something to you?"
Why are you speaking in such a sarcastic and insinuating way?
Lin Xiaoxiao gave him a deep look, "No."
Chu Wuyan: "..."
I no longer believe it.
He quickly changed the subject and got down to business, saying, "My grandpa, my dad, and my second uncle know you're back, and they asked me to invite you to their house for a meal."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded without hesitation, "Okay, then I'll trouble you. When?"
"It depends on the time you spend with your man."
"Tonight?"
Qin Yushen said he would be back early today when he left this morning, but after careful consideration, he probably only has time tonight.
Chu Wuyan said, "Okay."
Lin Xiaoxiao casually inquired about Chu Xiaobao's condition, and Chu Wuyan smiled from ear to ear, "He's all better now. This morning he even went for a walk with the old man, which made the old man so happy that he ate two extra bowls of breakfast."
"The military doctors at the General Hospital of the Army couldn't believe it, saying they had witnessed a medical miracle."
"I really have to thank you. If it weren't for you, Xiao Bao might..."
Thinking of Chu Xiaobao when he was sick, Chu Wuyan felt a pang of sadness. The little baby had to suffer so much.
Lin Xiaoxiao waved her hand, "Don't be so dramatic with me."
Chu Wuyan had a bellyful of words of gratitude that he hadn't yet uttered, but he was forced to swallow them back.
He mentally ranted and raved about Lin Xiaoxiao.
"My older brother and sister-in-law are going to the experimental base soon and want to see Xiao Bao's savior before they leave," Chu Wuyan explained the reason for inviting them to dinner.
Chu Xiaobao's parents?
Lin Xiaoxiao remembered hearing from the Chu family that the couple seemed to be engaged in research, and that they didn't even come back when Xiaobao was critically ill. Why did they come back this time?
Chu Wuyan seemed to know her doubts and said, "The couple were seriously injured and recuperated for two months. They just couldn't wait to get back to the base."
"They have basically dedicated their lives to scientific research and experimentation."
For them, children are at most a source of worry.
Lin Xiaoxiao thought of Liang Jihang.
The scientist, who had gone through countless hardships to finally return to China, learned upon arriving in Beijing that his father had died two months earlier in an explosion at a base's experimental well.
If it weren't for the traitor Huang Liangcai, Liang Jihang would have returned to China long ago and been able to see his father one last time.
This father and son, who hadn't seen each other for decades, were now separated by death.
After a brief period of grief, Liang Jihang carried on his father's legacy and quickly threw himself into the national weapons research, including research projects on the application of nuclear energy in weapons.
This was a challenging project for Liang Jihang.
But thinking about how my father dedicated his entire life to this project, even dying in an experimental well for a string of potentially useless data...
He kept telling himself that he must complete the mission his father had failed to accomplish.
The location of Liang Jihang's family is currently classified as top secret; no one in the entire National Security Bureau, except for Director Fan, knows about it.
The more people who know, the greater the chance of exposure.
So Lin Xiaoxiao never asked about it from beginning to end.
"Then it's settled. I'll have my grandfather's bodyguard pick you up tonight." After finishing the discussion, Chu Wuyan was eager to go back.
"Wait a minute," Lin Xiaoxiao called out to him.
Chu Wuyan stopped. "Is there anything else?"
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded, "You have a lot of connections, help me investigate someone."
"Who is it?" Chu Wuyan became interested. Whoever could make Lin Xiaoxiao ask him to investigate must be someone important.
Moreover, this was the first time Lin Xiaoxiao had ever asked him for help.
He had to get things done for her no matter what.
He patted his chest and assured me, "Leave anything to me, I'll handle it."
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and said, "Then I'm relieved."
That's exactly what I was waiting for.
For some reason, Chu Wuyan had a feeling that he had fallen into a pit.
Could it be that Lin Xiaoxiao is plotting against him?
impossible.
He shook his head violently, trying to shake off the jumbled guesses in his mind.
"Speak first, I won't do anything illegal."
"Would I ever cheat you?" Lin Xiaoxiao sneered at him.
Chu Wuyan glanced at his watch. "Who is it? Speak up, I'm in a hurry."
Lin Xiaoxiao opened her mouth, and finally uttered three words, "Yang Huaizhou".
...
There was a ten-second silence. Chu Wuyan rubbed his wrist, his expression unchanged. "Who did you say?"
It was as if he hadn't heard clearly.
Lin Xiaoxiao was even more composed than him. "Yang Huaizhou, the youngest son of the president of the Chinese community in the United States. He just came to the mainland a few days ago. I heard he's in Beijing. Can you help me look him up?"
Chu Wuyan asked calmly, "Did he offend you?"
"Just tell me if you can investigate," Lin Xiaoxiao said, not directly answering his question.
“Well… since this person has just entered the mainland, the information we can find is limited.” Chu Wuyan did not take the matter on immediately, but tested the waters again and again.
“I don’t need to investigate his past. I just need to know his whereabouts in mainland China, what he did, and who he met.”
Chu Wuyan was somewhat troubled. "This is not a good situation. He is an American citizen of Chinese descent who came to the mainland. He must have brought a lot of bodyguards with him."
Trying to track and investigate someone under the noses of so many bodyguards is no easy task.
Lin Xiaoxiao felt her lips were a little dry, so she poured herself a glass of water, drank half of it, and said without changing her expression, "There are only two or three bodyguards, what's there to be afraid of?"
