When the little girl heard this, the fear on her face immediately turned into joy. She bowed and thanked the two of them.
Sean quickly helped her sit down on the sofa again. Yi Zheng sat opposite her with Shi Man and smiled warmly like a big brother next door. “Did you bring the item?”
“I brought it!” The little girl immediately took out a fountain pen from her pocket and a letter from the page of the textbook. She placed it on the table and retracted her hand timidly. “It’s all here. I’ve been hiding without being discovered by them.”
Yi Zheng nodded in satisfaction. Under Shi Man’s increasingly suspicious gaze, the smile on his lips widened. “If you’re curious, open it yourself.”
Shi Man frowned and opened the envelope. Only then did she realize that it was a threatening letter. The signature was tender and unfamiliar, completely different from the elegant handwriting on it.
“Liu Xin?” Shi Man slowly read the name.
The little girl opposite them hurriedly sat upright like a frightened rabbit. Her red eyes widened as she said solemnly, “1, I’m here!”
Shi Man put down the letter and glanced at the leisurely man beside her with an unfriendly expression. “You knew that something would happen today, so you insisted on following me to the hospital. You deliberately revealed a loophole and waited for someone to fall into the trap you set.”
Yi Zheng nodded in relief and said, “Yes, you’re so smart. As expected of my fiancee. Even Tang Zhe doesn’t know about this.”
Shi Man took a deep breath and pointed at the fountain pen on the table before giving an answer with certainty. “A disguised recording pen, right? How did you know that the other party would attack today? You even prepared in advance?”
“Of course, someone tipped me off. Otherwise, even if 1 wanted to guard against it, I wouldn’t know so much.” Yi Zheng took the time to give Sean a look.
Sean immediately understood and leaned in front of Liu Xin with a smile. “Go eat with Uncle first, okay?”
“But my father…” The young lady looked up worriedly, wanting to take the initiative to ask Yi Zheng. However, for some reason, she felt afraid when she saw his eyes. Her body trembled, and she did not dare to finish her sentence.
Yi Zheng tried his best to soften his tone and not scare the child. He smiled patiently and said, “Your father is fine. He’s just a little injured, but I’ve already asked someone to take good care of him in the hospital. When I catch the bad person who harmed you, I’ll let you see your father, okay?”
“Good!”
Liu Xin nodded obediently. Although the man in front of her was a little scary to her, she knew that this person was different from the group of people who had captured her.
He was a good person, but he looked a little cold.
Sean was shocked that Yi Zheng was actually willing to coax the child. He stood rooted to the ground in a daze for a while. Under the two cold gazes, his body subconsciously trembled and he instantly came back to his senses.
He did not dare to delay and hurriedly left the office with Liu Xin, leaving the two of them alone.
Only then did Shi Man cross her legs solemnly and say in an interrogative manner, “Can you tell me now? Who tipped you off?”
Yi Zheng didn’t leave someone hanging. The smile on his face disappeared without a trace. “It’s Yi Kun’s son, Yi Che.”
In the top-floor office of Yi City, Yi Kun looked at the police officers standing in front of him expressionlessly and said impatiently, “I’ve said many times that this has nothing to do with me. Yi Zheng is in charge of the entire project now!”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Yi. We found out that you’re the legal representative of this company, so we still need you to cooperate with the investigation.” The police put away pen and paper and recording equipment, clearly not giving up until they achieved their goal.
Yi Kun hated dealing with these police officers the most, but since they had already come looking for him, he could only brace himself to answer a series of questions. The frustration in his heart rose to the peak.
The entire interrogation process lasted for an hour before Yi Kun finally sent them away. After returning to the office, he angrily called his father to complain.
Yi Che still had a good temper. He stopped his father’s actions with a smile and reminded him in a low voice, “Although Cousin chose to call the police this time and this is extremely disadvantageous to us, he didn’t do anything wrong in the overall situation. Even Grandpa can’t do anything to him. Instead, he will accidentally expose us.”
Yi Kun’s hand that was holding the phone paused for a moment before he rubbed the space between his eyebrows in frustration. “Then what do you think we should do now? My original intention was to chase Yi Zheng away and regain control of the company. Then, I’ll use some methods to let this fat piece of meat fall into our mouths. Now that he’s made a scene, I’m afraid no one will benefit. Instead, the cooked duck will fall into someone else’s pocket.”
“But at least Yi Zheng hasn’t won yet. It’s not entirely a bad thing for us.”
Yi Che held his father’s shoulder and sat him down. He patiently analyzed for him, “Father has controlled the city-building company for so many years and has done many projects of various sizes, but there has never been any accident. On the other hand, Yi Zheng actually caused a huge incident for the Yi family this time.. Isn’t this a great opportunity for us?”
