Luo Yuanming did not dare to hesitate and slowly said, "Based on the investigation, the second-tier families like the Zheng Family, Zhu Family, and Chang Family, as well as third-tier families like the Luo Family and Guo Family, all benefited more or less from your parents."
"What do you an by this?" Chen Xuan asked softly.
Luo Yuanming dared not conceal anything, "Your parents were researchers with quite a few technological inventions."
"Ten years ago, they were definitely in high demand! When your parents were forced to flee from ho back then, they couldn't take those research materials with them."
"mbers of those families all visited your ho and took away a small portion of the materials. Over the past decade, their economies have bood, establishing the families' current status."
Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "So, this ans they are equally highly suspicious."
Luo Yuanming pondered, "You could say that, but we're lacking strong evidence."
"But at least one thing is certain: they gained imnse wealth by taking your parents' research materials."
Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "Is that all?"
Luo Yuanming hurriedly responded, "Apart from that, another clue about your sister, Chen Yi, was found, but it's not comprehensive..."
Before Luo Yuanming could finish his words, Chen Xuan interrupted, staring blankly at him, "My sister Chen Yi?"
"Yes, is there a problem?" Luo Yuanming also looked at Chen Xuan blankly, not understanding why he was suddenly interrupted.
Chen Xuan's expression suddenly turned peculiar.
He was taken away by his master from the Holy Temple when he was just eight.
Four years later, his parents t with an accident; at that ti, he was only twelve.
From then on, a seed of revenge was planted in his youthful heart, making him bloodthirsty and cruel.
Yet, his parents never ntioned plans of having a second child.
Moreover, more than a decade ago, the policy of allowing a second child wasn't fully open yet.
At that ti, both parents were researchers, and it's impossible they'd knowingly break the rules just to have another.
So, where did this sister Chen Yi... co from?
Chen Xuan couldn't figure it out, "Luo Yuanming, are you certain the Chen Yi you ntioned... is my sister?"
Luo Yuanming was stunned for a mont, seemingly understanding that Mr. Chen might not be aware of this past.
"Mr. Chen, actually, here's what happened."
Luo Yuanming smiled as he introduced, "That Chen Yi is not your biological sister, and there's no blood relationship between you two."
"She is actually an orphan, adopted by your parents and treated like a biological daughter."
Chen Xuan suddenly realized, understanding the situation finally.
Upon learning the details, he found out Chen Yi was three years younger than him.
This ans that this sister he never t, Chen Yi, is now twenty-two years old.
"How is my sister Chen Yi now? Is she still alive?" Chen Xuan's eyes showed slight urgency.
Luo Yuanming looked awkward, "Mr. Chen, please let explain slowly, don't be anxious."
"The patriarch of the Zheng Family, Zheng Bin, had a relatively good relationship with your father back then. When your parents fled, they specially called Zheng Bin to entrust the adopted daughter Chen Yi to his care."
"But what happened afterward is unknown, and there was no sight of Chen Yi anymore."
While Luo Yuanming was speaking, he was secretly observing Chen Xuan's expression changes, "It's said that a few days after your parents' incident, so black-clad n broke into the Zheng house."
"Exactly what happened is unknown; whether your sister t her end is also unclear. Perhaps only Zheng Bin knows best."
Chen Xuan nodded slightly; if that sister with no blood ties was hard, those black-clad intruders breaking into the Zheng Family, and the ones chasing and storming into the Ma Family in Jiangbei City, are probably the sa group!
They are the executioners who killed his parents!
They must be found and dismbered!
"Mr. Chen, that's all we have uncovered so far."
"To avoid alerting the enemy, I dared not investigate further, nor did I interrogate Zheng Bin on my own initiative."
"Please give instructions if you want our Luo Family to step in and force Zheng Bin to tell the truth of that year?"
Luo Yuanming looked at Chen Xuan, waiting for his response.
Chen Xuan waved his hand slightly, "I'll handle this matter personally. The involvent of the Luo Family would create too much attention, which would not be beneficial for my revenge plan."
"Understood. We'll follow Mr. Chen's arrangent." Luo Yuanming said no more.
At this mont, the old patriarch of the Luo Family spoke, "Mr. Chen, as I've always said, if there is any need for the Luo Family, feel free to ask."
Chen Xuan nodded slightly, "Alright, then I won't disturb you any longer."
Leaving the Luo Family, Chen Xuan imdiately headed to the Zheng Family, determined to question the head of the Zheng Family for clear answers...
