Chapter 794 Is There Any Clues Left to Xiao Yunyun?

Cao Mingjian was sued by the hospital and Ye Luo also managed not to get into any trouble. She continued following the professor to study Shen Yuechuan’s illness, and spent most of her time in the lab, so much so that sometimes she couldn’t even distinguish between day and night.

Song Jiqing acted as if nothing had happened. He returned to being his usual light and cheerful self and teased Xiao Yunyun occasionally.

Xiao Yunyun really wanted to find out more details about the story between him and Ye Luo, but Song Jiqing did not bring it up. Out of courtesy, she had to hold back her desire.

Xiao Yunyun had been holding it back for a few days. She did not see Ye Luo at all, so she soon forgot about it.

After all, Shen Yuechuan’s illness was much more important than idle gossip.

At the same time, many employees of Lu Enterprises and the media were also paying attention to Shen Yuechuan.

After the crisis of the “brother-sister love” between Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun pa.s.sed, everyone thought that Shen Yuechuan would go to work as usual. Shen Yuechuan did go back to work, but half a month later, Shen Yuechuan suddenly never came to the company again.

Some people guessed that Shen Yuechuan had resigned. After all, someone else had taken over his job.

As soon as this theory appeared, it met with opposition quickly. The reason was that Shen Yuechuan’s office had been empty all this time. If Shen Yuechuan resigned, the one who had taken over his job would have moved into his office.

Some people said that the matter of “brother-sister love” had damaged the reputation of both Shen Yuechuan and the company, so the shareholders finally decided to fire him.

Someone quickly refuted this statement, claiming that it was even more unreliable. After all, Shen Yuechuan and Xiao Yunyun were not siblings at all. After the crisis pa.s.sed, their love affair had no impact on the company at all. Besides, if the shareholders decided to fire Shen Yuechuan, why would they let him work for another half a month?

Every statement sounded plausible, but not convincing enough to everyone.

For a time, there were different opinions in the company. The mysterious disappearance of Shen Yuechuan soon attracted the media’s attention.

Lu Boyan had no choice but to hold a press conference and announce that Shen Yuechuan had a health issue and he was currently hospitalized.

However, Lu Boyan did not answer questions about Shen Yuechuan’s illness and when he could come back to work.

Although Lu Boyan did not provide any detailed information, people still felt sorry for Shen Yuechuan—it was not easy for him to be in love, and suddenly he was hospitalized.

Kang Ruicheng was the only one who burst out in mocking laughter after reading the report.

Dongzi was good at observing others’ expressions. Seeing that Kang Ruicheng was happy, he hurriedly said, “Brother Cheng, it is the real reversal, isn’t it? Although the matter of the brother-sister love didn’t bring down Shen Yuechuan, he still finally left Lu Enterprises because of his illness. Ha, if we had known that he was so sick, we wouldn’t have wasted so much effort to create trouble.”

Xu Youning was on her way downstairs and happened to hear Dongzi’s words. She silently rolled her eyes at the ceiling, turned around and was about to go upstairs.

At this time, Kang Ruicheng asked, “I asked someone to investigate into the car accident involving Xiao Yunyun’s parents. Has there been any update?”

Xu Youning paused and looked at Kang Ruicheng in confusion. It had been more than 20 years ago since Xiao Yunyun’s parents had a car accident. Did he really want to investigate it?

Dongzi laughed and said, “Brother Cheng, you really had the foresight to do it! There is evidence that the car accident was actually not just a simple accident. Xiao Yunyun’s parents were not ordinary immigrants at all. They also have other ident.i.ties!”

Xu Youning was shocked and couldn’t help s.h.i.+vering all over.

A lot of people had been involved in this matter. Xiao Yunyun was just a girl who pursued a simple life, and she must not get involved.

Xu Youning was still thinking about how to stop all this, when someone came in from outside the door and told Kang Ruicheng, “Brother Cheng, everything you asked me to investigate is clear.”

Kang Ruicheng smirked and said, “Tell me.”

“Brother Cheng, you suspected that there’s something amiss about the car accident. It turns out that your suspicion is right.” The man said, “On the surface, Xiao Yunyun’s parents were immigrants to Australia, but in fact, they came from the International Criminal Police Organization.”

“In those days, the two of them used their ident.i.ties as immigrants to secretly investigate our base. Later, they really found it. But at that time, the person in charge of the base was your uncle, Kang Jintian, who discovered their ident.i.ties just in time. When Xiao Yunyun’s parents rushed to the airport, Mr. Kang caused the car accident when they were on their way back to the headquarters of ICPO.”

Kang Ruicheng’s eyes were calm. “So, that car accident had nothing to do with Xiao Guoshan at all?”

“Xiao Guoshan was just unlucky. He happened to be pa.s.sing by and was made a scapegoat for Mr. Kang.” The man added, “These were all told by Mr. Kang himself.”

Kang Ruicheng nodded and signaled everyone to go out. Then he immediately contacted his uncle, who was far away in the Golden Triangle, and asked directly, “The two international criminal police officers found out where our location was back then. Uncle, would they have left any clues?”

The old man’s old voice could be heard from the other end of the phone. “I had my suspicions before. But for all these years, our base has always been fine. Everything related to our base should have accompanied those two international criminal police officers to h.e.l.l.”

Kang Ruicheng thought for a moment. “Would they leave the clues to Xiao Yunyun?”

“It’s possible, but only slight.” Kang Jintian said, “In the car accident, the couple died on the spot, and there was no time for them to leave any clues. Xiao Guoshan didn’t leave the spot and the police arrived soon after, so it was not convenient for our people to lay a finger on the female baby. If there are really any clues left to the female baby, the police should have found it and our base would have been exposed long ago.”

“Uncle, you’re old, so you would rather save yourself the trouble. I can understand. But I’m worried.” Kang Ruicheng said, “Unless I’m sure that the two international criminal policemen didn’t leave any clues to Xiao Yunyun, I won’t let it go.”

Xu Youning rushed downstairs and stared at Kang Ruicheng. “What are you going to do to be sure that Yunyun’s parents didn’t leave any clues?”

Kang Ruicheng hung up and smiled at Xu Youning. “We’re very experienced in this kind of thing, aren’t we?”

The implication was that he would use the method that he had consistently used.

That was to capture the people involved and interrogate them using various torture methods.

Xu Youning was in a panic, but then quickly calmed down. She laughed sarcastically and said, “Xiao Yunyun is Lu Boyan’s and Su Yicheng’s cousin. Do you think you can really capture her as you wish? Also, let me remind you, this is City A, which is a city ruled by law, not the Golden Triangle where you can do whatever you want.”

Kang Ruicheng replied, “So, we need to make a plan.”

Xu Youning quietly clenched her fists and said, “I advise you to give up.”

“It’s about our safety. I can’t give up.” Kang Ruicheng suddenly thought of something and stared at Xu Youning. “By the way, A Ning, I want to remind you, don’t tell Mu Sijue about this news. During this period, you can’t contact anyone and you can’t go out either. Just stay at home with Mumu.”

Xu Youning still wanted to say something else, but Kang Ruicheng had already turned and left.

She wanted to sneak out now, but Kang Ruicheng’s order had been given. Before she stepped out of the door, someone immediately came up to stop her.

“Miss Xu, you must not leave.”

Xu Youning thought, “Then let’s fight, okay?”

She did not believe that these people were a match for her.

“Miss Xu!” Someone saw through Xu Youning’s intention, took out the handcuffs, and said, “Brother Cheng told us to handcuff you if you will use force!”

Mumu happened to run out of his room and saw a group of people bullying Xu Youning. With his eyes widening, the little boy rushed over and gave the man before Xu Youning a hard push. “Bad guy, don’t bully Auntie Youning.”

The young man was tall and strong, and Mumu couldn’t make him move at all. Instead, the counter-acting force caused him to fall to the ground.

The little boy was stunned. Only after a while did he believe that he had really pushed himself over. The next second, he burst into tears. “Waaa—”

“Mumu,” Xu Youning picked up the little boy and asked, “Does it hurt?”

“It hurts…” Mumu immediately buried his head on Xu Youning’s shoulder and cried out loud. “It hurts so much…”

“Young Master…” The man was at a loss, and he looked at Mumu anxiously and didn’t know what to do. “How about you beat me?”

Mumu slipped down and got out of Xu Youning’s arms. He glared angrily at the man who was twice his height, with his hands on his hips, snorted and said, “I admit defeat! But don’t let me see you bullying Auntie Youning again, or I’ll ask others to beat you!”

He couldn’t defeat this man, but his bodyguards could.

His father had said that he could call the bodyguards to do anything, including beating up those who bullied him.

After saying those harsh words, he took Xu Youning’s hand and said, “Let’s go back!”

The little boy was obsessed about cleanliness. After falling over, he felt that his pants were dirty. He cried because he wanted to change his pants, so Xu Youning had to go to his room to get him a new pair. When she came back, she found the little boy squatting in the corner and muttering.

Xu Youning crept quietly near him and found that he was drawing circles on the ground with his finger. He said, “You’re so tall, and you also bullied Auntie Youning. I’ll draw circles to wish that you’ll be shorter tomorrow! You’re so strong, and you also bullied me. I wish that you will become an ant!”

Xu Youning burst into laughter.

The little boy admitted defeat on the surface, but he was a boy after all, who already had self-esteem at such a young age, so he could not accept the fact that he had pushed himself over. He was cursing the person who made him unhappy by drawing circles.

“Mumu!”

Xu Youning suddenly made a sound. As expected, the little boy was shocked. He abruptly stood up and looked at Xu Youning seriously.

“Aren’t you going to change your pants?” Xu Youning said, “I brought it to you. Shall I help you change them?”

“No!” The little boy suddenly bent down and firmly grabbed the top of his pants. “You are a girl, and I am a boy. I can’t let you help me change my pants.”

Xu Youning handed the pants to him and asked, “Do you want to change them yourself?”

“That’s what I’m thinking too!” He took the pants and sneaked into the bathroom. He put a lot of effort into changing them, and after a long while, he came out with his pants worn the wrong way and he gave Xu Youning a conflicted look.

Xu Youning smiled and helped him to straighten his pants. The little boy kissed her cheek very gently and said, “Thank you, Auntie Youning.”

Xu Youning touched the little guy’s head and sighed in her heart.

Mumu was Kang Ruicheng’s son. If Kang Ruicheng was half as gentle as his son, Xiao Yunyun’s affairs might not be so troublesome.

What should she do to protect Xiao Yunyun from getting involved in these grievances?
