Was this man not going to stop till he had them cornered?!

And now, Song Jianjun seemed to be deliberately avoiding them as though he no longer cared. Song Zhengguo was comatose and Song Enya was in a critical condition. Who else was there that she could place her hopes on?!

There was no one else!

There was only complete despair!

The search lasted six hours. In the evening, the investigation came to an end. Whoever Shen Yanfei’s subordinates were, they were able to comb through the smallest of detail.

One of them reported back that they had found a number of items and had already made a list for him to look through.

Shen Yanfei walked into the living room and saw the safes and some gold bars in the middle of the room.

His subordinate also reported that the mural on the wall could be moved, and moving it away would reveal a hidden door. The gold bars and cash were found behind this hidden door.

Some of the books in the bookcase had empty centers. There were bank passbooks and cards hidden in them. Further investigations showed that these accounts added up to a total of four or five hundred million dollars.

Several hundred millions!

Backend investigation carried out by the bank found that the money’s origin was unknown. Part of the money had not been processed hence it was immediately frozen by the bank.

Over the years, Song Zhengguo had been transferring assets abroad, including several properties purchased in the United States. Two of them were in San Francisco, worth millions of dollars, and three were beachfront villas in Florida worth tens of millions of dollars.

There were also some miscellaneous items that had yet to be taken into account.

A representative from the court turned up and immediately transferred the assets and sealed the villas. Song Zhengguo and Song Enya were brought to the hospital by law enforcement officers and taken into custody.

Realizing that the situation was not looking good, Jiang Qimeng decided not to bother with Song Enya and Song Zhengguo anymore. When Shen Yanfei was not paying attention, she quickly hailed a taxi and left.

She found out the address of the Gu residence and found her way there. When she arrived at the gate, she frantically asked to be let in and begged to see Gu Jinglian.

The Gu family ignored her and did not let her in.

For the entire night, she knelt outside the Gu residence. She did not have anything to eat or drink, but waited to see Gu Jinglian.

When Butler Fu came to report this, Gu Jinglian was playing chess with Baby Chu in the study room.

After what had happened at Song Enya’s wedding yesterday, Gu Jinglian managed to secure a better standing with the boy. Baby Chu knew that the man did this for him. Hence, after they got home, the child was no longer so cold towards him. He kept interacting with the man, calling him ‘uncle’ all the time, and was rather affectionate towards him.

However, Gu Jinglian acted exceptionally aloof, pushing the boy away with a look of disdain.

Baby Chu did not mind, however, and stayed close to Gu Jinglian.

He felt that this uncle was a nice man. At least, he took care of him and even dealt with the evil guys who bullied him. He felt that the man provided very reliable support and the boy even started to fantasize that if he found his mother and arranged for them to be together, he…

He could then call this uncle “daddy”!

He’d have a father!

In reality, Baby Chu had already silently accepted the man. Only, he could not do this outwardly because he was afraid of upsetting his mother.

He had no idea if his mother would approve of the man!

Whatever the case, he would not acknowledge this man if Chu He would not accept him!
