As soon as she finished speaking, a deep voice came from the other end.

“I found something interesting, but the situation seems to be quite interesting.”

Dongfang Liuyun frowned, her face tensed up—

“What’s going on?”

At this moment, the uneasiness in Dongfang Liuyun’s heart grew stronger, and the string in her heart tightened.

“According to your instructions, I have checked your father’s recent schedule and the people he has come into contact with. I accidentally discovered that an old friend of yours has also appeared in Myanmar. Can you guess who?” The person on the other end sneered.

Dongfang Liuyun’s expression sank. The flowing light in her eyes immediately turned cold—

“Who?”

“Your old friend, Mr. Ge.”

“It’s him!”

Dongfang Liuyun’s expression immediately turned cold, and her eyes were filled with astonishment!

“How is this possible! My father and Mr. Ge don’t have any interactions at all. Do you mean that he has been looking for my father recently?” Dongfang Liuyun suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and asked.

“Initially, Mr. Ge didn’t come to see your father, but he met the seller. You know very well that your father wanted to get the western mine from the Burmese people for a long time. Mr. Ge is putting a finger into this pie, do you think this whole thing is simple?” The man on the other end of the line said coldly.

Dongfang Liuyun’s expression immediately turned cold. “So, Mr. Ge is involved in this matter?”

“You only want me to investigate these connections. You haven’t told me the specifics.”

“What if I want to know more detailed information?”

“I’ll give you a reply in three days. I sympathize with your father’s matter. However, Myanmar is also a troubled place. If there’s any news from Qi Lei, I’ll inform you. You’d better leave this place as soon as possible. Otherwise, there’s no use for you to stay here. It’ll only make your people more worried.”

The person on the other end thought about it and reminded them worriedly.

Dongfang Liuyun’s gaze was dim. “I naturally understand. When my father’s condition stabilizes tomorrow, I’ll return to City Z. As for Qi Lei, I’ll leave it to you. Please find him.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll do my best of course, who told me to owe you my life?”

“I didn’t ask you to repay me like this, but I really have to thank you this time. Oh right, did you discover anything about what happened earlier?”

Dongfang Liuyun did not forget about this matter either.

“Mr. Ge went to look for Fujiwara, but you should know Fujiwara’s personality very well. Although you guys have come this far, he definitely won’t hurt you and Lan Xiu. That’s why their conversation seemed to be very unpleasant. After that, Mr. Ge never went to look for Fujiwara.”

“Mr. Ge is closer to Fujiwara. They’re pretty good friends. Fujiwara has always been like that. He rarely buys anyone’s debt.”

A faint light flashed in Dongfang Liuyun’s eyes. She naturally knew Fujiwara very well, but...

“But, no matter what, there’s someone he’ll always pay for.”

As soon as Dongfang Liuyun finished speaking, the man on the other end added, “Has anyone ever told you that you’re very stubborn? Sometimes, being too responsible isn’t a good thing.”

Dongfang Liuyun obviously knew who the other party was referring to, but who could have predicted such an ending?

“I don’t want to talk about those things anymore. Perhaps, I don’t like her as much as I thought. Otherwise...”

“Otherwise, you wouldn’t be so anxious and worried about Qi Lei now. Have you fallen in love with him?”

Dongfang Liuyun did not answer this question.

After a moment of silence, she said calmly, “Mr. Ge’s matter is an important discovery. If it’s because of me... I definitely won’t let him off!”

“Judging from what you said, you think that he must have something to do with this.”

“Qi Lei had already vaguely found some clues. The previous scandals might have been related to Mr. Ge to a large extent, but there was no evidence.”

“What do you plan to do if something happens to Qi Lei?”

The person on the other end of the line was silent for a moment before he asked.

“Nothing will happen to him.”

Dongfang Liuyun’s tone was very determined, but there was clearly some unknown fear and unease in his voice. “That’s all for now. Let me know if there’s any news.”

Dongfang Liuyun hung up the phone weakly and his entire body went limp...

...

In the wee hours of the morning, when Yang Sheng returned with his supper, he saw from afar that Dongfang Liuyun had already fallen asleep on the bench behind him.

Dongfang Liuyun had not had a good rest for many days. She looked a little haggard, especially because she was worried about Dongfang Gan and Qi Lei. Furthermore, she did not dare to relax about the matters in City Z either. As a result, all her energy was almost drained.

Yang Sheng was actually very worried. After such a thing happened, he suddenly felt as if all his support had collapsed. It was difficult for the Missus to hold on.

Although Dongfang Liuyun was very tired, she was still a person who slept lightly. As soon as Yang Sheng approached her, she woke up.

“Missus, eat something first. You didn’t eat anything for dinner. Don’t burn yourself out,” Yang Sheng said with concern.

Dongfang Liuyun looked at him and did not reject him. “Thank you, Assistant Yang.”

“Missus, you don’t have to be so polite. Eat it while it’s hot. I specially asked the kitchen to make some hot porridge so that it will be easier to digest.”

Dongfang Liuyun nodded, opened the food box, and began to eat silently.

“Something may have happened in City Z. The news of President Gan’s injury has been sent back, and Master Qi’s whereabouts are also unknown... Tomorrow, Tai Yu Corporation’s stock market will definitely plunge... I’m afraid that Dongfang Group will also...”

Yang Sheng only said this when Dongfang Liuyun was halfway through his drink.

Dongfang Liuyun immediately stopped what he was doing and suddenly looked at Yang Sheng.

“Vice President Wang Chun has just arrived. The company has already held an emergency meeting, and President Qi knows about it. He didn’t say anything for an entire night, so everyone is very worried. Now, all the newspapers in City Z are probably rushing for this news, and Weibo is also full of these reports.”

“His actions are really fast.”

Dongfang Liuyun’s expression turned cold. Her voice was like the cold wind in December. It was very cold. “Can you find out who leaked the news?”

“Vice President Wang Chun is already investigating. The Dongfang Group is also in an uproar. I’m worried...”

Dongfang Liuyun put down the food box in her hand. She rubbed the space between her brows with a headache. She took a deep breath and could only give orders, “Go and arrange a special plane immediately. We will rush back to City Z overnight and contact the doctors in the hospital at the same time. Ask them to arrange for the best doctors to accompany us.”
