Inside the Feng family's villa.
Liu Yue walked into Feng Yaoyao's studio with a stack of documents in her hand.
"Sister Yueyue, you're here."
Little Green Tea was wearing a colorful outfit and holding several watercolor paintbrushes in her hand.
"Oh my goodness, if I remember correctly, your dress should be white, how did it get like this?"
Feng Yaoyao looked down and said nonchalantly, "Oh, it's okay, it's already become a work uniform anyway."
"Okay, here is the information you requested."
Liu Yue moved a small stool over and sat down next to her, looking at her with a gossipy expression.
"Yaoyao, tell Mom what's going on with this woman named Ling Xiangxue. Could it be that your little rascal..."
"No, no, don't make wild guesses. They have absolutely no relationship."
Feng Yaoyao glanced furtively towards the doorway, worried that someone following behind might misunderstand something.
"No need to look, your dad isn't even home. Tell me the truth."
"No, it's not."
Liu Yue stared at her for a long time, and after confirming that she wasn't lying, she was even more puzzled.
"Then why do you want me to investigate her? This woman is really quite ordinary."
"Here's the thing, Ling Xiangxue was Qin Bai's high school classmate..."
"Oh~~~ Childhood sweethearts, huh? You still say it's okay."
"Sister Yueyue, are you even listening to me? If you interrupt me again, I'm not going to say anything more."
"Okay, tell me, why are you turning on me?"
"They were high school classmates, but not in the kind of relationship you're thinking of..."
Feng Yaoyao recounted Qin Bai's conjecture.
A dozen minutes later, Liu Yue nodded in realization.
"Oh, that's what happened. No wonder you made me investigate so thoroughly, even checking my income and bank card information."
"So, did you find anything?"
Feng Yaoyao flipped through the stack of documents.
"No need to look anymore, there's nothing there. According to the investigation, this Ling Xiangxue's fate is similar to that of a bitter gourd."
"My parents have passed away, I am ill, and I have neither money nor ability to make a living. Over the years, I have been surviving on a meager income."
"Xu Mingyuan and Wen Si, who are with her, are orphans; she must have picked them up."
"I just returned to Jinshan City recently, and now I'm renting a place and running a flower shop, just like before."
Feng Yaoyao frowned slightly.
"This is not quite what Xiaobai expected; at least the number in her bank account hasn't increased."
After thinking for a moment, Liu Yue said, "These things don't prove anything. The person who hires her may not necessarily transfer the money to her account."
"If that's the case, it would be a huge insult to Qin Bai's intelligence."
"Based on what you just said, I'm more inclined to believe Qin Bai's guess."
"And look here..."
Liu Yue pointed to the last page of the white paper: "The location of the flower shop is not quite right now."
Feng Yaoyao's eyes widened suddenly when she saw those familiar place names.
"Near Xiaobai's house?"
"Hehe, to be precise, it's right at the entrance of their residential complex."
"What a coincidence!"
Liu Yue sneered: "All the coincidences are man-made, so I feel that Qin Bai is more right."
Feng Yaoyao actually had a good impression of Ling Xiangxue. That woman was incredibly gentle, and her speech and certain actions didn't seem like those of someone with deep scheming.
But now...
The facts speak for themselves.
A cold glint flashed in Liu Yue's eyes: "Yaoyao, leave this matter to me. You younger ones are still lacking in cunning. Perhaps I should secretly deal with them..."
Her fingers traced across her neck.
"No, no, no... don't act rashly, murder is illegal."
Liu Yue pouted: "What kind of society is this? Why would I kill anyone? Just drive them away."
Feng Yaoyao thought for a while and shook her head: "Let's forget it. Let's leave the decision to Xiaobai. It seems to be much more complicated than I imagined."
"Okay, then tell Qin Bai that if he needs my help, just let me know."
"Yes, thank you, Mom."
After saying that, he hugged her face and kissed her.
"Oh my, you have such a sweet tongue. I've never seen you treat me this well before."
Liu Yue pinched her nose with satisfaction: "Don't overwork yourself, come for a walk with me tonight."
"Okay," Feng Yaoyao replied sweetly.
After Liu Yue left, she took out her phone.
"Hey, Xiaobai, take a look at the information I sent you."
......
The next morning.
After washing up, Qin Bai sat down at the table and began to eat.
Cheng Jing asked, "What have you been busy with these past few days? I haven't seen you every night."
"Yeah, things've been a bit busy at work. Did you miss me?"
Cheng Jing stared at him intently for a long time.
"You know what, I'm actually thinking about it. I want to use you to test... how does the new feather duster feel?"
Qin Bai was initially listening with great satisfaction.
result......
It's confirmed.
Undoubtedly her biological mother.
"By the way, Mom, do you remember my high school classmate named Ling Xiangxue?"
“Ling Xiangxue?” Cheng Jing frowned slightly and began to search through her memories.
"I think there is such a person, why are you suddenly asking about her?"
"Oh, it's nothing. I ran into her a few days ago. She said her parents had passed away. Do you remember what kind of people her parents were?"
For these gossip-related matters, you should ask the mother. Even though she doesn't go to school most of the time, she still interacts with those parents.
"Let me think about it."
Cheng Jing thought for a moment: "I seem to remember something. If I'm not mistaken, her parents' health wasn't very good."
"Our family didn't have much money either, just like our family back then."
"I don't know what happened after that. Where did you meet her?"
Qin Bai said calmly, "When Feng Yaoyao and I were in Minglin City, she wasn't doing too well either."
Cheng Jing looked at him suspiciously: "You're not thinking of doing something, are you?"
"No, I don't even have the intention to help her, so what other thoughts could I have?"
"Oh, that's good. I thought you were going to..."
Qin Bai laughed and said, "My home is already messy enough. I really didn't have any thoughts about this. I just asked casually when I ran into them."
"Well, you understand that yourself. Have Ling Xiangxue's parents passed away?"
Qin Bai nodded.
Cheng Jing sighed, "Since we've run into each other, it must be fate. Don't forget to give her some money... Sigh, I guess I can't, since she's still in Minglin City."
Qin Bai finished the last bite of his meal and put down his bowl with satisfaction.
"Hehe, that's hard to say. Maybe I'll run into her as soon as I step out."
His gaze drifted into the distance, and the coldness in his eyes deepened.
