The paranoid Ling Shao's beloved pet ran away again

He doesn't look like a detective, but more like a teacher.

Only the gleam in his eyes made people feel that it was consistent with his identity.

"Ms. Xiao, you are too kind. But your commission this time is indeed a bit difficult." The private detective adjusted the frame of his glasses, with an embarrassment on his face.

"Not to mention that your investigation took place three years ago, which is a long time ago. The subject of your investigation is one of the top wealthy families in Beijing, the crown prince of the Imperial Capital. It's not easy to investigate!"

His tone was quite amazed, and there was a hint of sadness in his eyes.

"So, you mean it can't be checked?" Xiao Jinglan nodded lightly and asked calmly.

In fact, she didn't care whether he could really find out something, but she had to use this as an excuse to go out and do it in front of Ling Yisheng.

Not to mention private detectives operating openly, even if they let someone investigate secretly, as long as Ling Yisheng intends to conceal something, they won't be able to find out anything.

"It's not that we can't check it, but I'm afraid we can't check it."

As he spoke, the private detective leaned forward, approached Xiao Jinglan and whispered, "Miss Xiao, can you please ask me about the matter you want to investigate? Does Young Master Ling know about it?"

"Huh?" Xiao Jinglan looked at him nervously, with some confusion in his eyes.

"It's like this. Mr. Ling and Miss Wu are both wealthy nobles in Beijing. If they come to me for trouble afterwards, I can't afford to take the blame!"

After saying this, he seemed to be worried that Xiao Jinglan would overthink it, and continued to add, "Although you are also in the circle, your power is limited after all, and it is difficult to guarantee my safety!"

Xiao Jinglan didn't expect that this person would back down before anything even started, and he immediately felt that he had found the wrong person.

She said coldly, "It seems I have found the wrong person. It is really disappointing that you don't even have the courage to do this job."

After that, she packed up her things and prepared to leave.

The private detective stopped her from doing this, with a bit of anger on his face, "Ms. Xiao, you are going too far!"

"Why are you still looking down on me? I didn't say I didn't dare to check!"

As he spoke, the private detective seemed to have made up his mind and said angrily, "Just because of what you said, I have to let Miss Xiao see Wang's strength. Otherwise, how can I continue to work in this industry?"

Xiao Jinglan didn't want to get entangled any further, but was stopped by him.

He continued with a righteous look, "How about this, give me a more detailed time period, and I promise to check everything out for you!"

"If it is really Ling Shao and his men who have failed you, I will definitely stand by your side without flinching and help expose their crimes. I will never let such a derailed person get away with it!"

After saying this, he looked at Xiao Jinglan sincerely with determination in his eyes.

At first, Xiao Jinglan only thought that this man was bookish, but he didn't expect that he was actually an angry young man who could get angry easily.

But, can such a person really find out anything?

I always feel that he is a little too naive, not mature enough, and far less shrewd and sophisticated than a businessman.

I don’t know how he became so famous in the industry and has such great performance.

Fortunately, Xiao Jinglan did not expect him to find out the truth. He just nodded in agreement and continued to communicate with him about what happened next.

When everything was settled, Xiao Jinglan stood up and shook hands with him, "Thank you very much, and happy cooperation!"

"It's a pleasure working with you!" the private detective said confidently.

Afterwards, Xiao Jinglan paid the bill and left first.

This was just one of her itineraries for the day.

She also had to go to Xiao's to see if there was anything going on in the company while she was away.

The bodyguard not far behind him quietly reported everything to his immediate superior.

then.

After Xiao Jinglan dealt with some matters at the company, he received a call from Ling Yisheng.

"what happened?"

"I heard that you hired a private detective to investigate the matter?" Ling Yisheng stood in a high-rise office, looking at the endless stream of cars downstairs, his eyes full of tenderness.

"Yeah, why don't you let me check?" Xiao Jinglan raised his eyebrows slightly, and calmly signed his name at the bottom of the document.

"I specifically let you go out, why wouldn't I let you investigate?" Ling Yisheng chuckled and continued, "But, with just him, what do you think he can find out? Besides, didn't you say you wanted to rely on your friends to investigate?"

“This was recommended by a friend.”

Xiao Jinglan had already expected him to ask this question and had prepared an answer in advance.

In fact, she didn't lie.

She had mentioned this person unintentionally when she was chatting with Yu Qingyan before.

He is said to be the most famous detective in the capital. There is nothing he cannot find out and his professional ability is very strong.

She also said that it was this person who helped her resolve many open and covert conflicts and struggles in the circle.

"Which friend recommended it to you? How come I didn't know you had such a friend?"

As Ling Yisheng was speaking, he suddenly thought of the foreign organization "Yegui", and his eyes suddenly darkened.

She still had many secrets that she hadn't told him.

However, he is not in a hurry. He will dig it out step by step and find out the truth sooner or later.

Although he thought so, Ling Yisheng still couldn't restrain himself. He clenched his fingers into fists with his fingertips embedded in his palms.

"Yanyan recommended it before, you just didn't know it!" Xiao Jinglan responded indifferently, his voice calm.

"As for whether what you said can be investigated clearly, it depends on whether Master Ling is willing to cooperate." She deliberately addressed him like someone else, with a hint of mockery.

"What do you mean?" Ling Yisheng unconsciously clenched his phone, a hint of displeasure on his face.

He didn't like her calling him like others did, as if she was distancing herself from him.

Not intimate at all.

Hearing the displeasure in his voice, Xiao Jinglan sneered and ignored it.

She pretended not to know and continued to call him that way, "That is to say, Master Ling, please don't deliberately interfere and stop it."

"Lanlan."

Hearing that unpleasant name again, Ling Yisheng understood that she did it on purpose.

Then, his tone suddenly dropped, with a hint of warning.

"Don't call me that."

Hearing this, Xiao Jinglan remained silent.

A hint of pleasure of revenge flashed across his eyes.

He doesn't let her live a good life, so why should she obey him in everything?

Relationships are mutual.

Xiao Jinglan was only thinking about revenge, but he didn't realize that when she was fussing with him, she had already proved that he cared about her.

Whether it was her concern for his past or her deliberate revenge at this moment.

"Since you've said so, I will naturally not intervene to stop him. On the contrary, I will send someone to protect him so that he can successfully throw the evidence in front of you to prove my innocence."
