His lips curled into a smile as he said, "You'll know soon enough."

"Troublemaker..."

Ling Zhenfei was chatting with He Lingxiu on the rooftop at this time. It was already evening and the lights on the rooftop had come on. Ling Zhenfei and He Lingxiu ordered a few dishes to eat.

This day had been quite eventful, with the arrival of people like Phoenix. Phoenix soon cleared up his doubts, but now Song Jiaqi was missing, and Xu Liang couldn't be found. These were all points of suspicion.

They had almost finished eating when suddenly a few people came to see Ling Zhenfei.

"Hello, boss, we are your fans, from the Tangcheng fan club. My name is Tang Long."

The leader, wearing glasses, had a very intellectual look, like someone well-educated.

Ling Zhenfei hurriedly invited them to a nearby table and ordered a few drinks for them.

"I've been wanting to chat with you guys for a while, but as you know, I've had a lot on my plate lately."

Tang Long said, "We've also been wanting to meet you, but never had the chance. Today, you appeared here early, so we were able to find you."

Ling Zhenfei said, "You must have something to say if you've come looking for me. Is there something you want to tell me?"

Tang Long said, "Yes, we definitely have things to discuss with you. Some of the things you're aware of, we just want to share what we know with you. Maybe it will help you."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Then go ahead and tell me."

Tang Long said, "Here's the situation: we are from the Tangcheng fan club, and it was us who reviewed Du Zhongming initially. A few of us went to check on Du Zhongming's situation back then.

For example, Du Zhongming's medical reports, and some circumstances back then. The medical reports were issued by Tangcheng University Hospital. At that time, Du Zhongming's condition was quite poor; he couldn't even get out of bed."

Ling Zhenfei said, "But now, Du Zhongming's family and neighbors all say Du Zhongming was in great shape, walking briskly everywhere."

Tang Long said, "When we went there, we stayed at least a few hours at Du Zhongming's house, conducting extensive work. Some checked his medical reports, while others interviewed his neighbors.

The neighbors at the time spoke of his poor health. Some talked about his family's struggles, matching our findings. So, we recommended him."

Ling Zhenfei said, "But now those neighbors have all changed their stories, claiming Du Zhongming was in perfect health."

Tang Long said, "Can't the investigations we did back then serve as evidence?"

Ling Zhenfei said, "Your investigation reports, along with the reports from Tangcheng Hospital, are the only evidence. Who knows how it will turn out."

Tang Long said apologetically, "This is our mistake; we didn't conduct thorough investigations."

Ling Zhenfei said, "You can never really know someone deep down. Besides, manipulating a situation like that is quite simple, leaving you with no options."

"Boss, as for the fight incident, we were at fault for not finding you when we came to pick you up. It seemed like only two female fans managed to find you."

Ling Zhenfei said, "That was also my fault. Given the circumstances, I stayed out of sight, leaving you waiting in vain. It's not your fault."

Tang Long appeared genuinely apologetic, and Ling Zhenfei said, "Don't worry too much about it; it should be fine."

At this point, Ling Zhenfei suddenly had a revelation. Although the airport entrance cameras were broken, there was still evidence from when he was with Song Jiaqi—at least those two girls.

Those two girls had chased Ling Zhenfei down for signatures and photos before he left, and he even received a large bouquet of flowers.

Finding those two girls could potentially serve as evidence.

Ling Zhenfei called Tang Long aside and said, "Tang Long, I'm entrusting you with a task I hope you'll carry out well and keep confidential."

Tang Long, unsure of what Ling Zhenfei meant, hurriedly said, "Boss, just give me your instructions."

Ling Zhenfei said, "I almost forgot until you mentioned it. At the time, when I arrived at the airport, two young women found me at the entrance. We took photos back then. Can you help me find those two young women?"

Tang Long said, "Of course, I should be able to do that. If they could find you despite your efforts to stay hidden, they must be true dedicated fans. It shouldn't be hard."

Ling Zhenfei said, "Once you find those girls, don't mention it to anyone. Check their photos from that day to see if there's any evidence, like proof of me getting into a car with someone. Then send it to me."

Tang Long nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

Ling Zhenfei said, "These two people are very important to me. I leave it up to you. Please don't let this get out, or I'll be in trouble."

Tang Long said, "Okay, wait for my news."

After repeatedly instructing Tang Long, Ling Zhenfei had him and the others leave.

Gazing into the distant night sky, a smile appeared on Ling Zhenfei's face. Tang Long's arrival seemed to have resolved many issues.

Those two girls must have seen Ling Zhenfei and Song Jiaqi get into a car together, meaning Song Jiahui's claim that she left alone, and the narrative that Ling Zhenfei took Xu Liang away in a car, were all self-refuting. Therefore, Xu Liang's disappearance was unrelated to Ling Zhenfei.

"Oh no!"

Suddenly, there was an "oh" exclaimed. Ling Zhenfei quickly looked over to find that a server had accidentally spilled half a glass of milk tea on He Lingxiu while cleaning up.

The server immediately apologized, genuinely appearing not to have done it on purpose.

He Lingxiu, inherently kind-hearted, said, "It's okay, I know it wasn't on purpose."

The server said, "I'm really sorry. Somehow my leg went weak. Do you want me to clean your clothes for you?"

He Lingxiu said, "No, it's fine. I'll wash it myself tonight."

The server apologized repeatedly and then left.

He Lingxiu said to Ling Zhenfei, "Brother Afei, my clothes are dirty. I'm going back to change."

Ling Zhenfei said, "It's a bit chilly; change into something warmer."

He Lingxiu smiled and said, "Got it, Brother Afei."

After speaking, He Lingxiu walked downstairs to her room to change.

Ling Zhenfei smiled slightly. He Lingxiu was still so kind-hearted. But then he suddenly noticed a leaf on the ground, and he was stunned.

What kind of place is this? The cleaning staff ensures the ground is spotless, so how could there be a leaf here now?
