Mr. Gu's wife is a little naughty

The office door slid open silently, a soft ray of light, carrying the scent of the outside world, gently brushing the quiet air inside. Liu Liu walked in, holding a document tightly in his hands.

Lin Tao sat behind his desk, his sunglasses lightly covering his eyes. Through the half-covered edges of the lenses, he shot a sharp and deep gaze. A barely perceptible sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his voice was low and slightly chilling, echoing in the empty office.

"Assistant Liu really likes to meddle in other people's business!" Lin Tao said sinisterly.

Upon hearing this, Liu Liu's face instantly showed a look of astonishment. He stopped, his eyes filled with puzzlement and confusion, and asked softly, "Brother Tao, I... I don't quite understand what you mean."

Lin Tao raised his chin slightly, pointing to the door that hadn't yet been completely closed, and said with a hint of joking and warning, "Close the door."

Liu Liu suddenly realized what was going on and quickly stepped forward to close the door again. Seeing this, Lin Tao slowly took off his sunglasses, revealing his deep and bright eyes. A playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He leaned lazily on the back of the chair and looked at Liu Liu with an almost scrutinizing gaze.

Liu Liu felt a chill involuntarily running down his spine. Lin Tao's sudden and meaningful look made him feel uncomfortable.

"No, my dear brother, if I really did something wrong, can you just tell me directly? The look in your eyes makes me feel creepy." Liu Liu said depressedly.

Lin Tao smiled evilly, not intending to tease him any further, and sat up straight.

"Okay, enough teasing. Let's get down to business. How's the progress on the investigation I asked you to do?"

Lin Tao finally got down to business, and Liu Liu finally breathed a sigh of relief and handed the document to him. Lin Tao casually flipped through it and then closed it. "You know I don't like reading these things, so just tell me what you found out."

Upon hearing this, Liu Liu gently adjusted his glasses on his nose and sat down on the chair in front of the desk.

"Based on our investigation and the clues you provided, as you expected, the girl named Tian Mengmeng you met in the orphanage is now Tian Tian."

A complex emotion flashed across Lin Tao's brow. This was the result he wanted, but now it was like a big stone quietly pressing on his heart, making him feel an indescribable mixture of emotions.

"Tell me more specifically."

Liu Liu nodded slightly, then pulled out a yellowed photo from a thick folder and handed it over. Lin Tao took the photo and looked at it carefully. It was a photo of a little girl.

"It's her, that's it!" Lin Tao's voice was so excited that he almost trembled as he spoke, his eyes gleaming with the light of reunion. "The girl who claimed to be the big sister in the orphanage back then was exactly her."

Liu Liu's face also showed a somewhat happy expression. Lin Tao had been looking for this girl for many years, and now he finally found her. He was sincerely happy for Lin Tao.

Of the group of people who followed Lin Tao to China, if there was anyone who could truly understand the weight of this relationship, besides Nakajima Meiling, who constantly sought to sleep with Lin Tao, Liu Liu was the person Lin Tao trusted most. They had fought side by side on the battlefield and together they had founded the renowned Cobra Special Forces in the jungle.

"After a thorough investigation, Assistant Tian—oh, no, to be more precise, your sister-in-law. She was secretly sent to an orphanage a week before your father's accident. Coincidentally, you also went there after your family's misfortune." Liu Liu continued, "We also learned that her mother was a senior professor at a pharmaceutical laboratory under Jiangning Manufacturing. She also disappeared on the night of your father's accident."

Lin Tao put down the photo and looked at Liu Liu, "Her mother worked in my father's former company?"

Liu Liu nodded. "Yes, that laboratory was very secretive back then, and not many people knew about it. The specific research they were doing was never announced. Furthermore, the laboratory was destroyed after your father's accident, and all the researchers and materials inside disappeared." Liu Liu paused, then continued, "We've also discovered that the Jiang family is behind this laboratory."

Lin Tao exhaled heavily, stood up and walked to the huge French window, looking at the sea in the distance and the faintly visible islands.

"What does Tian Zhenyuan think about his wife's disappearance?" Lin Tao asked.

Liu Liu lowered his head and thought for a moment. "Tian Zhenyuan is a very difficult person to understand. He seemed to have known in advance that something would happen to his wife, so he sent his daughter to the orphanage in advance. And my sister-in-law stayed in the orphanage for less than half a year. Almost the day after you were taken away by the clan leader, she was secretly sent abroad and only returned in recent years. She has almost no contact with Tian Zhenyuan, and Brother Zhao has already told you about Tian Zhenyuan's current situation."

The so-called Brother Zhao that Liu Liu mentioned was the man who had always been Lin Tao's driver and also liked to wear big sunglasses. Like them, he also came back from Siam with Lin Tao.

Lin Tao stopped talking and looked out the window, not knowing what he was thinking.

"In fact, my sister-in-law has been living a very difficult life for many years. She has been living alone abroad since she was 10 years old. Tian Zhenyuan secretly sent people to send money to her a few times in the first few years, and then almost never cared about her again. Even now that she has returned to China, she has relied on her own efforts to buy her current single apartment."

Liu Liu's words were still ringing in Lin Tao's ears, but Lin Tao's thoughts had drifted back to the summer 15 years ago.
