Chapter 568: Findings
I finished chatting with Qiao Ye about Li Zishan's transfer of shares, it was already 12 o'clock in the morning, but it finally came to fruition, because Qiao Ye was very interested in this, he wanted to wait and see before making a move, I think he had a great chance of winning, because the scale of funds involved is too large, and he has the ability to take over, and it seems that there is only Qiao Ye's Jiangjian Group.
Back at the place where I lived, Xiao Ai hadn't slept yet, she was lying on the bed reading a magazine, and when she saw me coming back, she asked me, "What did Qiao Ye say over there?" β
He was very interested, but wanted to wait and see for a while, because Li Zishan still has a lot of uncertainties, and the scale of funds involved is too large, so he must also be cautious. However, one thing he is sure of is that he also feels that owning part of the equity of Jinding Real Estate is very much in line with the interests of Jiangjian Group in the next stage of development. β
"It's normal for him to have such worries, but don't worry too much, after all, there will be a difference between equity transfer and asset transfer, even if there are bad elements in her personal assets, but I don't think it will affect the transfer of equity."
I nodded and replied, "Well, but since Qiao Ye has such concerns, he must also have his difficulties, and it is normal for him to need some time to investigate and consider, so we just wait quietly for his final decision." β
Xiao Ai put down the magazine in his hand, then thought about it and said to me: "I'd better meet him in person, I'm afraid that there will be many dreams at night, once a third party with strong capital comes out to compete, things will be much more difficult than now." β
I looked at Xiao Ai, and I could understand her urgency, because once an individual or group took over the equity in Li Zishan's hands, it meant that the battle between her and Li Zishan ended with her victory, if Qiao Ye's Jiangjian Group took over, it could be said that it was a big victory, she would have more choice, and it would also pave the way for Xiao Mingquan to be released from prison in the future. β
I have no objection to Xiao Ai doing this, because many business things rely on negotiation to dispel doubts, and Xiao Ai has the capital to negotiate, because she can give Qiao Ye a lot of convenience for future cooperation, after all, she is the largest equity holder of "Jinding Real Estate", and there are many things she can promise to Qiao Ye.

In the blink of an eye, another week has passed, and the wedding date of Gu Lin and Wu Lei is getting closer and closer, so Chen Yi and I met Gu Lin again this morning, and we accompanied her to the mall to see the wedding dress and the dress that Wu Lei could wear, and during the whole process, Gu Lin did not show any loss of emotion, she has been very serious to ask for my and Chen Yi's opinions.
It wasn't until late in the evening that we had all the personal belongings we needed for the wedding, and then we found a restaurant where we were ready to grab a bite to eat to replenish the energy we had lost all day.
While Chen Yi went to the bathroom, Gu Lin and I also chatted a few words, and she asked me, "Is there any progress in things?" β
I replied, "I was about to tell you about this, and I found a private investigator more than a week ago, and I believe it will help you." β
Gu Lin looked at me a little surprised, and then sighed: "It seems that your determination is really great this time!" β
"It's the situation!"
Gu Lin nodded, and she said again: "The private detective industry is still quite special in our country, you had better find something more reliable, we have investigated a lot of cases, among which there are many people who use the name of private detectives to cheat money." β
"Well, it was introduced by a friend, it is very reliable, and of course the price is not cheap."
"Can you tell me his name?"
"I don't know my real name, I only know that it's called Huohuo, have you heard of it?"
"Well, he's a private investigator with a lot of level and professional ethics, I've dealt with him a few times, and I've helped us solve some cases, so the official now acquiesces to his job. His real name is Wu Huahuo and he is of Chinese descent. β
"When you say that, I'm more at ease."
At this time, Gu Lin said to me with a straight face: "Jiang Qiao, for Wu Lei's unfulfilled wish, I have no objection to you doing this, but in this process, you must pay attention to your own safety, the murderer dared to set fire to the piano shop in order to achieve a certain purpose, which proves that he is a brutal personality in his bones, if he can force him to do so this time, he is likely to have extreme criminal behavior at the end of his life." β
"Well, I'll be careful."
While talking, Gu Lin received a phone call, saying that there was a sudden urgent case in the bureau that she needed to go to the scene to deal with, and then she left in a hurry, and compared to Gu Lin's hurry, I was a little flustered, but such a rest afternoon should have been used for recreation.
β¦β¦
After a while, Chen Yi walked out of the bathroom, she looked around and asked me, "What about Gu Lin?" β
"I just left, and I said that there was an urgent case in the bureau that needed to be dealt with temporarily."
"We can't finish eating so much after ordering that." Chen Yi looked outside again as he spoke, then called the waiter and wrapped one of the pastries.
She said to me again: "Jiangqiao, there is an uncle picking up waste outside, you can go and bring him this pastry and Coke." β
I looked outside, and there was a ragged man rummaging around the dumpster. Under the scorching sun, he wiped off his sweat from time to time with an old towel that he had dusted on his shoulders. However, I saw the hardships of the people at the bottom in these unstoppable sweats.
I nodded to Chen Yi, took out the packed things, and then gave them to this uncle. But in such a trivial matter, I inevitably thought of some of the past.
Chen Yi, a woman, seems to follow the rules, but she still has some strange behaviors. She always liked to ask me to bring food to some homeless people, but she never wanted to do it herself, and this habit has been carried over by her since she was a child.
When I got back to the restaurant, I finally asked her, "Why do you ask me to bring food to these people every time?" It's not a physical job, you can easily do it yourself! β
Chen Yi looked at me, then took a sip of his cup of coffee before replying to me, "You want to listen to the truth?" β
"It's so fresh, who wants to listen to lies!"
Chen Yi looked at the uncle who was still picking up waste outside, and she was silent for a long time before she said to me: "Actually, my idea when I was a child was very simple, because my mother always told me that people should do more good deeds, and they will be blessed in the next life...... You are so pitiful in this life, I just want you to have a little more blessings, and the next life must be better than this life. β
Speaking of this, Chen Yi smiled a little self-deprecatingly, and then replied: "Now it seems that my thoughts are indeed quite naΓ―ve, now you are better off than anyone else, and those who once felt sorry for you can only envy you now." β
Listening to Chen Yi's words, my heart swelled with a feeling that I couldn't express in words, she is one of the few women in the world who is sincere to me, but in addition to being moved, I also have an indescribable fatigue in my heart, because I am destined to live up to her good to me as always.
After eating at the restaurant, I stood next to my car and said to her, "If you go back to Tulip Road, I'll take you back by the way." β
"No need, there's still a show to be recorded tonight, and I have to go back to the station now to prepare."
I sighed, "Your workload seems to have gotten bigger lately!" β
"Those who can work hard!"
Chen Yi smiled at me again after speaking, and then reached out to stop a passing taxi and left. Just as her back completely followed the traffic and disappeared from my sight, the whole city ushered in another night, and the lights followed the flowing crowd, one by one.
I didn't want to go back for a while, so I sat on the bench in front of the restaurant and watched the people walking down the street, some of them looked decent, some of them were idle, but none of them had anything to do with me. I know that there are only a few things in this world that are worth cherishing and good to me.
After a while, the cafΓ© next door to the restaurant suddenly played "Don't Say", which had given me a deep memory, and in the familiar melody, I remembered Chen Yi's decades of dedication. Only then did I realize that the high-density work she has been doing recently is not the so-called overwork, she is just preparing for the wedding of Gu Lin and Wu Lei. She wanted to spare enough time in the days when Gu Lin and Wu Lei got married.
β¦β¦
I returned to Tulip Road at the end of the night, and was about to go to the hotel for a meal, when the private investigator called Huohuo offered to meet with me, saying that he wanted to report to me the results of the investigation during this time.
I made an appointment with him at the Tulip Hotel, and at about 8 o'clock in the evening, we met in the restaurant, he was not the same as I imagined, I thought he would be a very different person, but he looked very mediocre, and seemed to have a high degree of myopia, so the lenses of the glasses looked very thick, and the clothes were more ordinary, and the gray shirt on his body had been washed and whitened, without the aura and aura of a private detective in film and television works.
As if seeing my mood in my expression, he smiled at me and asked, "Do you think my image doesn't match my profession?" β
I glanced at him a little embarrassed, and then replied, "It's a little, it's not quite like the one in the film and television drama." β
He smiled again and said: "Don't mythologize our profession, let alone be led astray by those brain-dead TV series, if we are mixed in this industry, everyone looks like they stand out from the crowd, so how can we do things to investigate?" β
I gave him a smile in return, then pulled out a chair for him and motioned for him to sit down and talk. He was a casual man, and when he sat down, he lit a cigarette to himself.
He said to me, "It's been almost two weeks since we started working together, and according to my professional habits, I'm definitely going to meet up with my employer at this time." β
As he spoke, he took out a folder from his bag, handed it to me, and said, "I just reported some work results to you on WeChat before, and the content is definitely not detailed enough." Therefore, I have compiled a very comprehensive information here, and I have checked the background of everyone who has been in contact with him, and then presented it on this information, you can see if it helps you. β
