Luo Xiaoqian copied down the phone number in her cell phone and handed it to Gao Jie, "Don’t ask about the details, just find out everything you can about this number and let know as soon as possible. Also, rember, this must be kept absolutely confidential. Even President Leng must not be inford. If you can’t do this, you might as well pack your things and leave now!"
"I understand," Gao Jie took the note, "Rest assured, I’ll go ask my friends for help right now."
After Gao Jie left the room, Luo Xiaoqian sat down in a chair and began to think carefully.
Since the other party knew so much about her and Zimo, it must be soone very familiar with her and Leng Zimo. After all, the incident in Zhengding was highly confidential, and his access to this information indicated that he was no ordinary individual.
Rembering that the man had ntioned her father, Luo Xiaoqian suddenly thought of soone. She imdiately stood up and walked out of the room, "Lin Ye, drive back to the Leng Family!"
A short while later, she was already sitting back in the car, heading for the Leng Family.
Aunt Su saw her and greeted her with a smile, welcoming her into the house, "Xiao Qian is back, co in, co in. Take a seat. I was just about to prepare lunch, why don’t you stay and eat with us?"
Luo Xiaoqian didn’t sit down, "Is Uncle Leng here?"
"He’s in the study room, flipping through a dictionary," Aunt Su said with a laugh, gesturing upstairs with her chin. "He’s trying to think of a good na for the baby."
"You go ahead with your work," Luo Xiaoqian went straight upstairs to the study and saw Leng Lin indeed sitting with glasses on, flipping through a dictionary. When he saw her, Leng Lin imdiately stood up with a smile, "Xiao Qian, you’re back so early today?"
"Yeah, I don’t have any work arranged for today." Luo Xiaoqian approached and glanced at the nas he had jotted down on paper, "Uncle Leng, I have sothing I want to ask you,"
Leng Lin took off his glasses with a smile, "What is it, ask away?"
"It’s about my father’s mission. Can you tell what exactly was the mission he was on, and did he... ever kill anyone?"
"Why are you suddenly asking this?" Leng Lin looked puzzled.
"It’s nothing. Zimo and I are getting married, and I wanted to pay respects to my father and let him know," Luo Xiaoqian covered up with a laugh, "I had a nightmare last night. I dreamt of my dad. He said I need to settle a favor for him, but he didn’t make it clear to whom he owed this favor. That’s why I want to ask you if you might know. I understand it’s important, but after that dream, I’ve been feeling very uneasy. Could you please tell ?"
"This..." Leng Lin frowned, "Xiao Qian, you know that this is a matter of national security. I really can’t disclose it."
"You don’t have to tell all of it—just my dad’s part, okay?" Luo Xiaoqian hugged his arm, "Uncle Leng, I beg you..."
Worn down by her pleading, Leng Lin gave in slightly, "I can only tell you the general situation. There was a traitor who secretly sold so important national research results. Your father posed as one of their accomplices, won their trust, and got hold of the first-hand materials. It was with his involvent that we managed to mitigate the damage. If not for him, those critical docunts would have fallen into enemy hands. It’s just a pity that he paid for this with his valuable life. By this year, the incident was nearly resolved, but in the beginning of the year, we received so information that similar activities might still be underway, related to the past events. So, this matter is still classified."
