Shen Xing was wearing a red dress and following Chi Jiao.
As the two of them walked along the bustling streets, their good looks attracted the attention of many people.
Chi Jiao was on the phone with Yan Zhengchen.
He asked her if things had gone well in Feng Tong Village.
“Everything went well. I found something interesting in Feng Tong Village. I’ll show it to you when we meet,” Chi Jiao said.
The two people she admired the most were her godfather and Yan Zhengchen. They were experienced and knowledgeable.
Yan Zhengchen looked like a rich and imposing president, but he actually liked to read books, especially ancient ones. He read books from all over the world, and his knowledge was terrifyingly abundant.
Therefore, Chi Jiao wanted Yan Zhengchen to take a look at that stone.
What if he had seen it before? Wouldn’t that be another clue?
Yan Zhengchen and Chi Jiao arranged to meet tomorrow.
“Sister, where are we going?” Shen Xing asked.
“To a dessert shop. Don’t you want to eat cake?” Chi Jiao smiled.
Shen Xing was already a little tired from walking, but the thought of eating cake filled it with energy.
After walking for a while on the bustling streets, Chi Jiao held Shen Xing’s hand and stopped in front of a dessert shop.
Shen Xing was immediately attracted by the cakes in the display window.
The cakes were all exquisite and looked very delicious.
Shen Xing couldn’t help drooling.
“If you want to eat cake, you have to cooperate with me later, understand?” Chi Jiao said.
Sheng Xing had no objections to whatever she asked now. It immediately nodded obediently.
Only then did Chi Jiao push open the door of the dessert shop.
As it was morning, there was no one else in the dessert shop except the boss and the waiter.
Chi Jiao and Shen Xing were the first guests of the day.
A woman with soft, curly hair wearing an almond-colored dress was standing behind the dessert cabinet, adjusting the display.
Chi Jiao’s eyes darkened as her gaze landed on that woman.
This woman looked quite gentle and gave off the feeling of a soft and sweet beauty.
But one couldn’t judge a book by its cover.
It was this woman who had been so arrogant over the phone yesterday.
Last night, after Chi Jiao returned to her room, she managed to find out who made that call.
She found out that it was a woman called Fang Xiaowei.
Fang Xiaowei and her father, Fang Tianxin, owned a private hospital and were old business partners with Chi Mingwei.
Previously, the Chi and Fang families were about the same in wealth and status.
But now, with the help of 007 Laboratory, the Chi family had advanced by leaps and bounds, leaving the Fang family behind.
Therefore, the Fang family targeted her father.
Chi Jiao couldn’t help admiring Fang Tianxin.
According to the information she had spent two whole hours collecting on the internet last night, Fang Tianxin only had one daughter, Fang Xiaowei. Furthermore, Fang Xiaowei was only in her early twenties.
And her father was the same age as Fang Tianxin.
For his own benefit, Fang Tianxin was willing to sacrifice his daughter to a man who was about his age as a second wife. This was a very bewildering move.
The busy Fang Xiaowei sensed that someone was staring at her.. She straightened her back and looked at the two of them standing in front of the dessert counter.
