"What is their relationship?"
Huo Juanyan’s voice was grave.
Driving the car ahead, Xia Xing responded, "Thirty years ago, they were college alumni and t at a gathering. They haven’t been in contact since then."
Huo Juanyan’s cold eyes narrowed, "Is that all?"
Xia Xing, catching a glimpse of Huo Juanyan’s displeased look from the rearview mirror, quickly added, "They didn’t have any overt connections, and no one would have thought they had this relationship. But this morning, when I was investigating the dean, I accidentally discovered sothing about his son."
"Nan Luzhi has been donating money to the dean’s son’s school, from elentary to university, he has donated to all levels."
"Moreover, two days ago, the dean’s son made a two-minute call to Nan Luzhi. The call record was erased cleanly today after sending a text ssage."
Huo Juanyan’s slender fingers rested by the car window, lightly tapping with an air of restrained authority.
"What was the content of the text ssage?"
Xia Xing replied, "Just three words, ’Already taken care of.’"
Huo Juanyan’s gaze darkened, "Has anyone else found out about this?"
Xia Xing shook his head, "They shouldn’t have. They were very quick in erasing their tracks, completely clean. If it were not for our accidental discovery, we wouldn’t know that they’ve been secretly in touch."
Huo Juanyan closed his cold eyes, "Have soone keep an eye on them. If there’s any information about the Ghost Doctor, let know imdiately."
"Yes, President Huo."
"Xia Xing, don’t go to the hospital, have that person co to the hotel to et ."
Understanding imdiately, Xia Xing acknowledged, "Yes, President Huo."
At Haotian Hotel in City C, in the presidential suite on the top floor.
Huo Juanyan sat in his wheelchair, his back to the door, gazing out the window lost in thought.
Knock knock.
There was a knock at the door.
The next second, the sound of the door opening followed by Xia Xing’s voice.
"President Huo, Dr. Ye has arrived."
Only then did Huo Juanyan turn his wheelchair to coldly regard the portly, fifty-sothing Ye Chengdong standing at the doorway.
Upon seeing Huo Juanyan wearing a black mask, Ye Chengdong’s heart skipped a beat, swiftly donning a subservient smile.
"President Huo, what brings you to City C so late? Is there sothing important?"
Huo Juanyan lifted his eyelids slightly, and an overwhelming pressure burst forth, suffocating the other man.
His lips parted coldly, "Ye Chengdong, what about the information you were supposed to collect?"
With sweat still forming on his forehead, the flustered Ye Chengdong heard this and his plump lips trembled in panic, "President Huo, ever since you arranged for to work at the hospital in City C a year ago, I have been secretly investigating the Ghost Doctor."
"But ever since the Ghost Doctor disappeared two years ago, it’s as if she never existed. I truly haven’t found any trace of her."
From the side, Xia Xing interjected, "Dr. Ye, yesterday I found out that the Ghost Doctor appeared in your hospital, and I ssaged you right away."
Ye Chengdong showed a puzzled expression.
"Impossible? I didn’t receive any ssage."
He made a move to check his phone but Xia Xing’s phone suddenly appeared in front, clearly showing a ssage sent yesterday at 10:23 AM.
"Ghost Doctor IP appeared on the second floor of the hospital, investigate imdiately."
Ye Chengdong’s face drained of color as he suddenly felt a murderous intent from directly in front of him tighten around his heart. Looking up, his eyes t those cold ones behind Huo Juanyan’s mask.
He involuntarily swallowed, panic visibly etching into his features as he began to babble.
"President Huo, I really didn’t see that ssage, nor do I know anything about the Ghost Doctor’s whereabouts."
"She has been missing for two years. If I knew where she was, I would have told earlier, not wait for you to co asking."
"Besides, the Ghost Doctor always moves in mystery, never showing herself easily. There aren’t even photos, and those who may know what she looks like never speak a word. Even if she appeared in our hospital, if I had gone there, I wouldn’t know who she was!"
Seeing Huo Juanyan’s expression grow even colder, with eyes that regarded him like a dying ant,
Smack!
He knelt down instantly, delivering a heavy slap to his own face!
"President Huo, I was wrong. Please give a chance to make ands. I swear I will deliver the news of her to you myself."
