Eighties Sweetheart Wife
Chapter 495 Am I Stupid?

Chapter 495: Chapter 495 Am I Stupid?

Old Master Lew didn’t care whether that piece of land could be auctioned off or not; he had already found a location for Song Yunuan’s subsidiary.

It was an office building owned by the Lew family, chosen especially because it could accommodate Lin Chen and the other two who were homeless.

With that, the Fanhua subsidiary had a place to settle down.

The living arrangements for Lin Chen and Huang Mingxi were also taken care of.

Without waiting for the land auction to commence, Sixth Master sought out Old Mr. Lew, initially mocking him before finally saying that he decided to withdraw from the competition for the sake of Little Nuan.

Next were the eldest son and daughter-in-law of the Ai family.

Shangguan Heng and those two families didn’t dare to provoke Song Yunuan.

Thus, Song Yunuan really helped the Lew family secure that piece of land.

An office building was also included in the contract.

Song Yunuan’s affairs were mostly settled now.

Then it was time for the comfort performance troupe to prepare for their return journey.

However, there had been no news of Old Master Gu and Xia Bowen.

The person Xia Xindong was looking for still hadn’t turned up any clues either.

Chairman Wang made a special trip.

He said his unfilial son had run off to play and was still uncontactable.

He even made a formal apology for this and brought many gifts.

He made a lot of promises to Song Yunuan as well.

But privately, Chairman Wang had already been in contact with his son more times than could be counted.

Wang Kai fiercely said to his father, "They’re just asking for it, stupidly full after eating and going looking for Hea Yunfei. It’s not our fault. Daddy, just pretend you know nothing. I will arrange everything, and you must not slip up."

Chairman Wang had no other choice; the person Xia Xindong wanted had been sent to a ship years ago, but that ship was hijacked by pirates halfway through its journey. All the cargo was robbed, and those people were ruthless, leaving not a single survivor.

So Hea Yunfei had died a long time ago.

What could he offer Xia Xindong as an explanation?

Dare he say that Hea Yunfei was already dead?

At the very least, he could not say it while that group of people, especially Song Yunuan, were in Xiangjiang.

However, the other party was becoming pushy now.

He should maintain inaction on his end to avoid alerting that demon.

But his son could make a move; he could seek out pirate gangs, especially those active around Southeast Asia.

If only Song Yunuan could be lured onto the ship, then they could deal with her.

Without Song Yunuan, the others would become much more manageable.

He would be able to breathe easier then.

For this, he and his son had already come up with a perfect excuse.

-----------------

Snakehead Fish came looking for Song Yunuan.

He was very excited, saying that Sixth Master had explicitly sought him out to instruct that no matter what, he must help Miss Song with her work from now on, and he was now in charge of the security for the Fanhua subsidiary area.

He assured Song Yunuan that as long as they were there, nobody would dare to cause trouble.

However, there was still no clue about the person Song Yunuan had asked him to find.

The search had to continue.

To be honest, Old Master Gu was no match for Snakehead Fish when it came to finding people.

These people roamed the streets and alleys, especially those shadowy lanes filled with poverty and crime.

They knew these places better than the police did.

Snakehead Fish told Song Yunuan that he would continue the search, and even if she left Xiangjiang to return home, he would call her once he found the person.

He also showed off the Dongfang Hong that Sixth Master had given him.

Snakehead Fish was genuinely happy.

He felt it was a highlight of his life.

Then he also found out that Miss Song was the very Song Yunuan who was supposed to chant slogans back then.

But he was not angry.

On the contrary, he was quite impressed.

It truly was remarkable, a soldier trained by the PLA really was different.

In such a situation, an ordinary person would have been scared witless, crying and screaming long ago.

Nobody expected that by evening, Snakehead Fish would have news.

He came running to Song Yunuan, gasping for breath.

Old Master Gu followed them there.

Xia Xindong stopped Song Yunuan, telling her not to go to Qingshui Lane.

After all, that was the most chaotic place in Xiangjiang.

Song Yunuan was not adamant about going; she was just a bit curious.

In the middle of the night, Old Master Gu brought back a gaunt old woman to the hotel.

Ever since the woman arrived, Song Ting stayed by her side, not allowing Little Nuan to come close. She helped the old woman bathe, comb her hair, and change clothes.

There was no conspiracy or scheme, it was just Murong Qianqian’s Sixth Aunt, Lou Mengjun, who actually had a very pleasant name.

She left the rental apartment because the money Qianqian left for her had been stolen; she couldn’t afford to rent a place, so she begged to get by, but she was still forced to go to Qingshui Lane and was locked up.

There were many similar cases here, of varying ages, all managed by one of the local ringleaders.

Which is to say, they were all rounded up to work.

Lou Mengjun’s job was to wash clothes, with one meal a day; if she died, she died, no one paid attention to them.

She persisted; she just wanted to wait for Qianqian to return, otherwise, she couldn’t die in peace.

Her Mandarin was very good, and despite being in tatters and emaciated, one could still see that she once had a good upbringing.

Song Ting was skilled at taking care of people. She tidied up the woman quickly and gently said, "Aunt Lou, someone will come in a little while to tell you everything you want to know, please don’t worry."

Song Ting didn’t know much and hadn’t specifically inquired.

In the reception room, Old Master Gu took out handwritten letters from Murong Feng and Qianqian to her.

Seeing the familiar handwriting, Lou Mengjun couldn’t hold back her tears and wept bitterly.

On this side, Old Master Gu called home.

He informed Murong Feng and Murong Qianqian that Lou Mengjun had been found, her condition wasn’t good, and he was making arrangements to have her admitted to the hospital for a checkup and to handle the procedures to take her home.

Lou Mengjun didn’t want to go to the hospital; she wanted to see her brother-in-law and Qianqian immediately. Song Ting stayed with her the whole time, and she was very receptive to Song Ting’s words.

Going to the hospital was just for a checkup, and it would take about three days before she could go home.

So Song Ting accompanied her to the hospital.

The cabaret troupe, on the other hand, maintained exceptionally good order and discipline.

No matter where they performed, Sixth Master’s men were there to maintain order.

It was unclear how they handled Ai Ruifeng’s situation.

But it was said that the old man of the Ai family seemed ready to retire,

gradually handing over the family business to the eldest son to take over.

Ai Ruifeng and Chang Dan expressed their gratitude to Song Yunuan, which they couldn’t articulate.

They discussed how to support Song Yunuan’s Fanhua subsidiary. As for that Ai Ni, if she dared to lay a finger on Lin Chen and the other two, she would be stripped of all her property.

Ai Ni, afraid of begging, truly quieted down a lot.

This time, the Ai family was preparing to inject a large amount of research funding into Dongfang Hong.

Sixth Master, unwilling to be outdone, also brought out a large sum of money.

Everything on this side was going smoothly.

However, the situation with Xia Bowen and Xia Xindong was not smooth.

Unexpectedly, in the morning, a call came from Chairman Wang, saying he knew she was leaving home and wanted to invite her and others to go on a cruise to play, with all expenses covered by him, as a form of apology, and he also assured Song Yunuan that he would inform her immediately if there was any news about Hea Yunfei.

Song Yunuan chuckled, "Chairman Wang, do you think I’m stupid?"

Chairman Wang: ...

He was nervously drumming in his heart, unsure of what Song Yunuan meant by that.
