As expected, Song Fan raised an eyebrow when she heard about the Red Snow Flower, clearly tempted by the offer.

Gu Chen and her team had been searching for the Red Snow Flower but had found nothing. Now, with the Brown Group controlling B Country, they had no opportunity to act.

Charlie stood watching her, waiting for her response.

Finally, Song Fan nodded, “Alright, I’ll seriously consider it.”

Hearing her words, Charlie sighed in relief and left the Song residence.

Song Fan immediately called Gu Chen. From her earlier probing, she knew Charlie wasn’t the one who had kidnapped Wu Yong.

Given Wu Yong’s skills, even if he couldn’t immediately research the new drug formula, he should have been able to understand Jason’s experimental report. By now, he might have even made some progress.

Gu Chen was silent for a while, his tone heavy, “There are no records of Wu Yong leaving or entering the country, and we haven’t found any clues about his disappearance. My people couldn’t locate him.”

Song Fan had expected this outcome. She comforted him, “Don’t worry. I’ve already asked Sasha to contact our former partners. If there’s any news, I’ll let you know immediately.”

Just as she hung up, Kevin called.

“Song Fan! If you don’t answer, I’m going to call the police!” Kevin’s voice was so loud it hurt her eardrums.

She didn’t plan to mention her previous kidnapping and quickly changed the topic, “Are you back in the country? I was just about to look for you! I need your help!”

“Hmph!” Kevin’s mood improved hearing she needed him. “You only come to me when you need something. I’m near your house. Let’s talk in person.”

Feeling a bit guilty, Song Fan hung up. Kevin might not be a fighter, but his sharp tongue was intimidating.

At the nearby restaurant, Kevin elegantly ate his steak while scolding Song Fan for half an hour.

“Do you know how much I lost because of your foolish sister?” He rolled his eyes as he mentioned Meng Xia stealing his dress. “I just asked for a little compensation, and your stepmother was so unwilling! Hmph, so petty.”

Song Fan raised her hand in surrender, “It’s all my fault. But I really need your help.”

Seeing her sincerity and willingness to take the blame, Kevin’s mood brightened, “Alright, what do you need? I’m not getting involved in anything illegal.”

“You don’t need to get your hands dirty, just help me dispose of the body,” Song Fan said, cutting her steak forcefully. Kevin’s eyes widened in shock.

Seeing his reaction, Song Fan couldn’t help but laugh, while Kevin continued to roll his eyes at her.

“Okay, I’m collaborating with Brown Group and Gu Corporation to launch a new jewelry brand. I want to hire you as a design consultant,” Song Fan said earnestly, with a hint of flattery. “I need to borrow the reputation of Master Kevin.”

Kevin had already been mentally prepared for this, which was why he had returned.

“Oh, now you think of me? Unbelievable!” Despite his haughty demeanor, Kevin acknowledged Song Fan’s abilities. “Fan, your design skills are on par with mine. Especially in jewelry design, you’re a professional. Are you really not going to use the name Ella anymore?”

Song Fan awkwardly stuck out her tongue. She had indeed worked as a designer under the name Ella to earn money. That alias had gained some fame.

During that time, she and Kevin had become good friends, but circumstances changed quickly, and she needed faster ways to make money, so she gradually stopped designing.

Seeing her discomfort, Kevin didn’t press further and agreed to start working at Song Corporation in a few days, with the condition that he wouldn’t be required to clock in daily. Song Fan readily agreed.

The next morning, Song Fan arrived at the office early. Her department had been inactive for a while, and she needed to get things in order.

Unexpectedly, Su Yang had arrived even earlier and was waiting at her office door.

“Mr. Su? Did you need something?” Song Fan had a good impression of Su Yang, knowing he was an old member of the Yu Family, and invited him in politely.

Su Yang looked her over, seeming relieved, “You’ve been missing for a long time. It’s good you’re safe.”

Seeing Song Fan’s slight embarrassment, he didn’t pry further but handed her a key, “This is the key to your mother’s safe deposit box at the bank. She entrusted it to me before she passed away. She wanted me to give it to one of you siblings when someone joined the management of Song Corporation. But your brothers never came to work at the company.”
