Chapter 104: Chapter 104

"Aren’t I fine?" He lay back on the bed and pointed to the cabinet, "Help me get the laptop out."

"Still hung up on your laptop!" Su Rongxing complained but turned around to get it for him, "I’m serious, Su Ronggui! A journalist is just someone who plays with a pen! You’re not a cop! If I had known being a journalist was this dangerous, I would have persuaded your mom not to let you do it! Working at your own family company would have been so much better!"

"You should be at the company," he said.

"I won’t!" Su Rongxing pouted, "You can have your dreams and pursuits, and I have to sit idle at home?"

He gestured for her to turn on the laptop, "So the editor sent you here to talk me into quitting?"

Su Rongxing was taken aback, but then laughed, "All right, all right, of course not! Just pretend I didn’t say that, okay? By the way, what about Tu Hengsha? I heard he was seriously injured and is in the ICU?"

"Yeah." His expression clearly indicated he didn’t want to talk much about that name.

Su Rongxing smiled and consoled him, "Don’t be mad. She’s the kind of person who’s more trouble than she’s worth! Bringing her along means you’re just waiting to get dragged down! Your arm got hurt because of her, right?"

Su Ronggui’s brow furrowed imperceptibly, "No, it’s nothing to do with her."

Su Rongxing’s smile faded, "Is... is that so?"

"Let’s get to business," Su Ronggui placed the laptop on his lap and typed in the boot-up password with his left hand.

Su Rongxing instinctively watched his fingers. This man was so guarded; his computer password, locked drawers, and phone password, no one could unlock them. His heart was locked too, wasn’t it?

The boot-up sound of the laptop chimed, and Su Ronggui’s gaze swept across her face.

She playfully protested, "I didn’t see anything!"

"I’ll send you all the materials. Get a grasp of it first and write a draft with the existing investigation. This matter involves Sun Yulin and Zhao Ye concealing safety accidents and forging accounts for bankruptcy declarations. These are criminal issues, and the police are already involved. You need to cooperate with the police and complete the draft based on the investigation results," he said as he transferred the files.

"Yes! I know! I’ll go to the police station! And that Old Yu, can I go see him again?" Su Rongxing asked with a focused expression when discussing work.

"You can, but..." Su Ronggui frowned.

"But what? Don’t you trust me?"

"No, I’m guessing he’s already in hiding," Su Ronggui replied, "Back when there was a safety accident at Zhao Ye’s company, four people died, including Old Yu’s son. Zhao Ye and his group hid the accident and privately settled with the victims’ families, paying them 200,000 each to close the case. Old Yu has had a grudge since then. Later, they secretly paid Old Yu hush money, and he was the one who handled the false accounts. He knows all the insider details. After Zhao Ye’s company went bankrupt, Old Yu went into hiding too. I had to go through a lot to find him and persuade him to get information, including visiting the families of the other three who died back then. This put Old Yu in more danger. Now that Sun Yulin and Zhao Ye are missing, Old Yu, for his own safety, is likely to vanish again."

Even though Su Ronggui spoke calmly, Su Rongxing was startled, "So thrilling! The process must have been so hard, so tense and exciting, right? Su Ronggui! I truly admire you! When can you take me along on an investigation like this? It’s incredible!"
