Looking at Shangguan Wan’s distraught appearance, Little Xingxing frowned. “Wanwan, do you want to see him very much?”
“Mom wants to see him very much, but I don’t know if there’s any chance.”
Little Xingxing asked, “Is he the uncle Mom said had gone to heaven?”
Shangguan Wan nodded silently.
Little Xingxing’s handsome face tensed up and said with some discontent, “But he’s lying to Wanwan. He did not go to heaven at all.” Little Xingxing had no choice but to tell Shangguan Wan about how he secretly went to play piano to earn money and then met that person.
Shangguan Wan was in disbelief when she heard his words.
But when she heard Little Xingxing mention a beautiful sister, the image of the girl she saw at the mall appeared in her mind.
“Xingxing, go to bed earlier today, okay? Mom will go out for a while!”
Little Xingxing looked at Shangguan Wan’s departing figure and sighed softly.
He didn’t even have to guess, Wanwan must have gone to find that man!
…
Shangguan Wan drove to the Western restaurant where Little Xingxing had played the piano.
It was a 30 minute drive, but she accelerated and reached her destination in less than 20 minutes.
In addition to the overwhelming excitement and expectation, there was also an underlying tension and fear.
She was afraid that she was rejoicing too early.
No matter how smart Little Xingxing was, he was still a child.
Besides, there were so many similar looking people in the world. He had just seen the video, could he really recognize that person as Ye Yanfeng?
The Western restaurant was still open and Shangguan Wan found the restaurant manager, showing her officer’s identity card. The manager then took her to the surveillance room.
Shangguan Wan looked carefully at the footage from the time period Little Xingxing had mentioned.
Shangguan Wan’s heartbeat sped up uncontrollably when she saw a black Bentley stopping at the entrance of the restaurant.
Soon, the car door was opened and a man and woman got out.
But the man had his head lowered all the way, not knowing if he was avoiding the surveillance cameras on purpose or for other reasons. The girl, on the other hand, was smiling brightly by the man’s side like a happy little bird.
Although she could not see the man’s facial features, the man’s figure and posture when walking was very similar to Ye Yanfeng.
Little Xingxing should not be mistaken!
The restaurant was not yet equipped with surveillance cameras inside, so Shangguan Wan could only see the footage of them entering and leaving the restaurant.
But it did not matter whether she could see the man’s face anymore, everything would be clear if she went to Zuofeng Mountain again.
Shangguan Wan thanked the manager, before getting back into the car to drive to Zuofeng Mountain.
Along the way, thoughts were running around her mind.
She could not understand it. If Ye Yanfeng was still alive, why was he willing to invest to build the resort, but unwilling to see her?
Was the young woman by his side his new lover?
No, she wouldn’t believe it!
The car stopped at Zuofeng Mountain and Shangguan Wan stood in front of the gate.
She did not ring the doorbell immediately, but raised her hand slowly, putting it on her left chest. Her heart was thumping hard as if it was going to jump out of her chest.
Taking a deep breath, she mustered up her courage and pressed the doorbell.
“Who is it?”
The door to the villa opened and Shangguan Wan saw the girl at the mall walk out. Seeing Shangguan Wan, Bailey’s eyes widened. “…It’s you?”
Shangguan Wan suppressed the wild beating of her heart and tried to say in a calm voice, “I’m here to look for Ye Yanfeng.”
Ye Yanfeng?
The girl frowned. “I’m sorry. I don’t know who you’re talking about?”
Shangguan Wan carefully observed the girl’s expression and found that she did not look like she was lying.
She did not know Ye Yanfeng?
Or Ye Yanfeng did not reveal his real name to her?
“May I come in?”
“I’m sorry, I’m going to rest soon!”
Shangguan Wan did not have much patience. She had to get to the bottom of things tonight. Without waiting for the girl to say anything, Shangguan Wan climbed up the gate and leaped in from the outside.
Seeing her series of agile and skilful actions, Bailey was dumbfounded and her mouth dropped open.
When Bailey regained her senses, she chased after Shangguan Wan. “Hey, what’s wrong with you, breaking into people’s houses, I’ll call the police!”
Shangguan Wan said coldy as she strode forward, “No one can do anything to me here!”
Looking at the arrogant Shangguan Wan, Bailey frowned and said nothing more.
Shangguan Wan entered the villa and hurried up to the second floor when she saw that there was no one else on the first floor.
On the second floor, Shangguan Wan’s heart was beating like a drum. She tried to hold down her emotions, but still could not hide the agitation in her heart.
She circled the corridor on the second floor.
Every door was closed and she did not know which room he was in.
Shangguan Wan knocked at each of the doors.
After knocking, none of the doors opened.
Bailey came up. She looked at Shangguan Wan and said with a frown, “Although I don’t know who you are, the person you’re looking for moved away this afternoon.”
After returning from the Western restaurant, Fifth Brother only asked Bel and her to finish the project properly and left.
Shangguan Wan’s heart tightened. “Where did he go?”
“I don’t know.”
Shangguan Wan’s expression turned cold.
What was the reason for him to avoid her when he was still alive?
If he had no feelings for her anymore, why did he have to travel all the way here just to invest?
Shangguan Wan nodded. “Okay, I understand.”
…
After Shangguan Wan left Zuofeng Mountain, she asked for people to monitor Bel and Bailey.
She did not believe they did not know where Ye Yanfeng had gone.
Sure enough, on the third day of monitoring them, Shangguan Wan’s man reported that after Bailey went to the supermarket, she went into a taxi with two large bags.
Shangguan Wan drove over immediately.
The subordinate monitoring Bailey saw Shangguan Wan coming over and said quickly, “Lieutenant, that woman had been in that house with the courtyard for about half an hour.”
Shangguan Wan nodded. “Okay.”
Before long, Bailey came out and the taxi was waiting for her outside. She looked around, found that there was nothing unusual and left in the taxi.
After she left, Shangguan Wan walked out from an inconspicuous corner. This place was a suburb with few houses and the surroundings were quiet.
Shangguan Wan went to the house with the courtyard. As the door of the courtyard was not closed, she pushed it and went straight in.
She came to the door and was about to knock when a hoarse voice suddenly sounded, “Bailey, you haven’t left yet?”
Shangguan Wan had heard this voice before. It belonged to the rude and strange man from when she went to Zuofeng Mountain to look for the investor.
Was he…
The door creaked and was opened from the inside.
Shangguan Wan raised her head.
The golden rays of light shone on the man’s face, and although it was a little dazzling, it was enough to let her see the man’s face.
Shangguan Wan’s breathing tightened and her heart seemed to have stopped.
