Chapter 704 - Hu Zi's Whereabouts! (4)

Name:Hello, Heir Author:Young Master Yan
But there was nothing going on outside, not even a sound.

Zhuang Nainai furrowed her brow.

Five minutes past eight…

Ten minutes past eight…

What was up with Hu Zi? Was he caught up with something somewhere else?

When it was half-past eight, Zhuang Nainai finally heard footsteps coming from outside. Eagerly swinging her head back to see who it was, she saw a figure by the side of the car.

Si Zhengting lowered the car window, but the person that they saw wasn’t Hu Zi. It was… Dazhuang?

Dazhuang, his face forlorn, passed his phone over to Si Zhengting. “Sir, the private investigators just called, and they said, they said…”

Si Zhengting knitted his brows. “What did they say?”

“They said that Hu Zi might not be able to make it today.”

After Si Zhengting heard this, he gave an imperceptible sigh. With his cold gaze fixed on Dazhuang, he asked in a voice filled with displeasure, “This is the answer that they’re giving us?”

Dazhuang went stiff from Si Zhengting’s icy tone. Not even daring to breathe heavily, he finally understood why the private investigator was so unwilling to make a call to Mr. Si directly and had instead asked him to be the messenger. Steadying himself, he explained, “Sir, they said that at half-past seven, there had been some activity on Hu Zi’s side.”

Si Zhengting glanced at Dazhuang, and Dazhuang quickly blurted out the rest of what he had to say. “Mr. Si, do you still remember how Hu Zi had gone to look for his girlfriend after he finished serving his jail term? That girlfriend has now found a rather capable gangster as her partner, but Hu Zi has been pestering her. The boyfriend, angered by this, went to look for Hu Zi at half-past seven today. Encircling him, they declared that they would kill him — causing him to run off in fear! Now nobody knows where he’s hiding at!”

When he heard this, a flash of anger crossed Si Zhengting’s eyes. But his cultured upbringing meant that he lowered his gaze to hide it, and instead, he coldly replied, “I got it.”

But just as Dazhuang was about to turn around and leave, Si Zhengting spoke once more. “Are those private investigators getting paid for nothing?”

Dazhuang was speechless.

Mr. Si’s rage was truly something to be afraid of!

Even though Mr. Si had said it in a cold, flat tone, he knew that there was no way that the private investigators would be let off lightly.

Saying a silent prayer for them in his heart, Dazhuang quickened his footsteps and left the car. It was all too frightening for him!

It was only after Dazhuang’s footsteps faded into the distance that Zhuang Nainai turned her head to face Si Zhengting. Their chauffeur sitting in front of them had no idea what to do, and his fear kept him silent.

Zhuang Nainai was undoubtedly disappointed. But these sorts of things couldn’t be blamed on anyone; they had just been unlucky.

Sighing, she told the chauffeur, “Let’s go home.”

The chauffeur quickly started up the engine.

Not seeing Hu Zi meant disappointment, of course, but Zhuang Nainai had already mentally prepared herself for such a scenario.

Furrowing her brows, she looked out of the car window for a while before turning to Si Zhengting. “What’s up with this girlfriend of Hu Zi? Can we try to locate Hu Zi through her?”

Si Zhengting explained, “The private investigators have checked her out, and she’s not a reliable person. We’ve found out the reason Hu Zi had gone to jail all those years ago: his girlfriend had been pregnant, and she had asked him for 200,000 dollars. Coincidentally, someone held a grudge against your family, and they gave him 200,000 dollars to run your mother over without killing her. Without it being a murder, his jail term was seven years at the maximum and five if he behaved well.”
