Chapter 399 Major Discovery
Song Chi sat in his office chair, rubbing his temples with a headache.
"Daughter-in-law, you've been talking too much. Are you thirsty? Drink some warm water to soothe your throat..."
Cheng Shu brought her a cup of warm water.
Song Chi felt a warmth in her heart and smiled sweetly.
"Thank you, Mom!"
She took a sip of water.
"Daughter-in-law..."
Cheng Shu hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
"Mom, what do you want to ask? Just ask!"
“Daughter-in-law, tell the reporters that you will upload Ah Yin’s audio later, but we can’t get in touch with him right now…”
Upon hearing this, Song Chi sighed deeply.
"Mom, I have no other choice but to stall for time."
Cheng Shu sighed, "That's all we can do for now! But where did we get the audio? I bet the whole country is waiting for it!"
Song Chi remained silent.
Cheng Shu racked her brains for a moment.
"How about we make it using AI?"
"No way, netizens are all detectives, AI will easily be exposed!"
"What should we do then..."
At this critical moment, we can't get in touch with anyone and there's no new audio. It's driving us crazy!
Song Chi was also troubled.
She picked up her phone and scrolled through her chat history with the older man.
Suddenly, she saw a screen recording.
This screen recording is a video conversation between her and the older man.
At that time, the older man was working in the office. He missed her and made a video call to her. The two of them were very affectionate...
There are no other videos, only this one...
However, it was too sweet, and Song Chi felt a little embarrassed if outsiders saw it.
Moreover, the timestamps on the screen recordings don't match up!
It's truly heartbreaking; a glimmer of hope is seen, only to be instantly extinguished.
Cheng Shu also saw the video.
"Daughter-in-law, that's great! Then release this video and announce that we just made contact, the background is still the office, and the layout is exactly the same as the office abroad. We can't see it during the day or at night, so it won't give us away, and no one will suspect anything!"
"But the time is different..."
"That's easy, just use technology to change the time and data, and you're good to go!"
"Uh, Mom, I don't know how."
"Uh, I don't know either..."
Cheng Shu thought for a moment: "Let's find a skilled technician, provided that he's one of our own and can help us keep it a secret!"
Song Chi: "..."
It seems that none of their own people, except for the older man, know this kind of skill!
Thinking of her uncle, Song Chi's heart was bleeding, but she believed that he would come home!
Both of them remained silent, and the atmosphere became somber.
Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.
"Enter."
"Boss Song, someone is looking for you."
"who?"
"It was a man, quite handsome, who said you were his savior..."
A savior?
Song Chi thought for a long time but still couldn't figure out who it was.
However, as long as they're not here to spy on the situation, that's fine.
"Let him in!"
A moment later, the assistant brought Mu Yingxin to the office.
When Song Chi saw him, she was taken aback. She was completely confused and didn't know who he was.
Mu Yingxin smiled and said, "Mrs. Mu, you haven't forgotten me, have you?"
Song Chi's pupils widened.
"It's you! Please have a seat!"
She remembered that he was the 'mentally ill patient' who had saved her in time at the hospital.
Song Chi looked grateful: "Sir, thank you so much for helping me at the hospital, otherwise..."
"No need to thank me, you saved me, this is my way of repaying you!"
"Uh... no need to be so polite. What do you need me for?"
"Mrs. Mu, I saw the news about you and Mr. Mu through the live broadcast. You must need help. If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know!"
Song Chi was a little embarrassed: "I already told you there's no need to be so polite. I saved you once, and you saved me too, so we're even!"
"Mrs. Mu, there's a saying in China: 'A drop of water in need is as good as a spring.' Now, you are that drop of water, but my spring! From this day forward, I will be your follower. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west!"
Mu Yingxin's face was full of sincerity.
Song Chi: "..."
This person's arrival was so sudden!
Furthermore, they only have a brief acquaintance and are not familiar with each other, so it's uncertain whether they can be trusted!
Song Chi lowered his eyes, pondering his credibility.
Cheng Shu remained silent, glancing at Song Chi and then at Mu Yingxin as they talked.
Mu Yingxin is so handsome. If it weren't for the way he looked at Song Chi—so clean and respectful—she would have thought someone was trying to take advantage of her!
Cheng Shu was quite knowledgeable and experienced. After sizing him up, her sixth sense told her that he was trustworthy!
She whispered a reminder: "Daughter-in-law, don't you need someone to help you? Do you think he'll do the job?"
Song Chi looked Mu Yingxin up and down. Seeing his sincere face and respectful eyes, Song Chi's heart wavered.
"Sir, what's your name again, Mu something..."
"Mu Yingxin, welcoming the new future, welcome the new!"
Mu Yingxin, what a unique name!
"From now on, I'll call you Yingxin. Starting today, you'll be working at the new company as my personal assistant!"
"It's a great honor!"
"Can you modify the time and data on the video?"
"It's simple, do you have a notebook?"
"have!"
Song Chi gave him a laptop.
Mu Yingxin started typing furiously on the keyboard.
Soon, the time on the video was changed to the latest date, and the backend data was also changed to the latest date!
Song Chi and Cheng Shu stood by, dumbfounded.
"Boss, it's done!"
"Boss" is how Mu Yingxin addresses Song Chi.
This was the first time Song Chi had been called that, and he was still a little unaccustomed to it.
Cheng Shu laughed and said, "This young man is really something!"
"Thank you for welcoming me, and I hope you can keep this a secret!"
"Of course, you're my boss. As your follower, I'll be your man in life and death, your soul in death..."
Song Chi: "Pfft..."
She was amused.
This was the first time she had smiled since the man went missing.
Song Chi straightened his expression and handed the USB drive to Cheng Shu.
"Mom, give this video to the PR department and make sure they can't release it as an official account!"
"good."
Cheng Shu took the things and went out.
"I have other work to do, so you can go and familiarize yourself with the company environment first!"
"Yes, boss!"
"Don't call me boss! Just call me by my name!"
"No, you're the boss! I have to call you boss, boss, boss..."
"Alright, alright, I need to work now, get out of here!"
"Yes, boss!"
Mu Yingxin left the office, her eyes flickering slightly.
He didn't tell Song Chi that Mu Nianbai was going to release the video of Mu Yin being attacked on the internet. However, videos from the internet are difficult to release on the domestic network. He estimated that it would take some time for the rumors to spread to China!
For some reason, he suddenly believed that with Song Chi's abilities, he would definitely be able to stabilize the situation and find clues within this period of time...
This way
Song Chi rubbed his temples, his head throbbing violently.
Whenever she had a moment to herself, she would start missing the older man terribly! She would worry about him!
However, she couldn't let her guard down; there were still many things to deal with!
Suddenly, her phone rang; it was a message from Song Yulan.
Song Chi checked: "Chi Chi, Bo Wen agreed to what you told me last time. That guy, as soon as he heard he was going to go undercover, he was in a real hurry. I don't know when it started, but he contacted me today saying he has made a major discovery..."
