Chapter 516: Chapter 516: The Sches of Two Won
A towering figure leaned in the armchair, toying with a pen, twirling it around with his long fingers, radiating an icy deanor.
“We’ve confird that the people who kidnapped Miss Bai are the sa people who were in contact with the housekeeper. They exploited Miss Bai’s familiarity with Mr. Bai to deceive the housekeeper. Mr. Zexian has managed to gather so information.”
Yao put a docunt on the table.
“The man in the docunt is nad Wu Qing, who once was a patient in the sa hospital as you, Mr. Jie.” Yao paused, only continuing when he saw no reaction from Dan Hanjie.
“Three years after you, Mr. Jie, left the hospital, Wu Qing was also taken away through formal adoption procedures. However, the parents’ nas on the adoption papers were fake; we can’t trace those two individuals. As for Wu Qing, he disappeared for many years and only recently appeared in Fico City.”
“What does he have to do with Bai Huo?””
Dan Hanjie’s eyes flickered, hinting at an almost imperceptible smile.
His deep, dark eyes reflected an enigmatic darkness.
“We can’t determine their relationship for now. But what we do know is that they have identical faces.”
On hearing this, Dan Hanjie raised his head from the desk and chuckled coldly.
“So, that’s why he was adopted–for the purpose of dealing with .”
After leaving the ntal hospital, no one in the Dan family ca close to him.
Even the servants found him to be strange. He was a seventeen-year-old, a ti to be young and energetic, yet he was distant and eerie.
He didn’t have any friends, not that he felt the need for any.
Only Bai Huo, who since the first ti he saw him at a banquet, was always trying to get close to him.
Bai Huo would visit the Dan family every few days, expressing his intentions of showing him the real world, a world much larger than his own.
Many of his behaviors during his teen years were impossible to explain.
Finally, Bai Huo’s persistence moved him.
He made his first friend.
A friend…
Who also beca a pawn in soone’s sche.
Dan Hanjie’s eyes glinted blood-red, like obsidian bathed in blood.
“Send the ssage back. I want to know who’s behind him… a blood debt demands a blood paynt.”
“… Yes sir.”
Yao paused, bowing respectfully.
Before he could leave the office, Secretary Chen ca rushing in with a newspaper, looking panicked.
“You didn’t even knock before entering; have you forgotten the rules?” Yao warned, lowering his voice.
Secretary Chen, however, didn’t have ti to worry about this and rushed over. “Mr. Jie, the young mistress is surrounded by reporters at the mall. This is the latest report—it has just been published.”
“Bang–”
A pen was slamd onto the desk, and Dan Hanjie’s eyes narrowed instantly. “Where did you say she is?”
“The central shopping mall.”
Secretary Chen stepped forward, spreading out the newspaper.
Yao reacted imdiately, switching to the news channel.
On the screen was indeed Qin Youxuan.
Her slender figure stood at the entrance of the mall, a custom-made skirt accentuating her perfect figure, making her incredibly alluring.
The bag in her hand was the latest limited edition of the season.
On her charming face was a large pair of sunglasses, which she politely removed upon seeing the reporters.
She looked energized and lively, a complete contrast to her previous listlessness.
She gave the cara a slight smile.
She was beautiful.
So beautiful that it made one’s heart flutter.
Dan Hanjie clenched his hand on the desk and abruptly stood up from the chair.
Before anyone could react, he grabbed his coat and hurriedly left the office.
