"Okay." Lou Xun responded and went to the address he sent.

The teahouse is elegant and quiet, very suitable for chatting.

When Lou Xun entered, Yin Hong was already inside. His face was full of fatigue and sadness, which was a far cry from his usual high-spirited appearance.

Lou Xun was also impatient. After sitting down across from him, he asked directly, "Second Master, what's going on? Why hasn't Aunt Gu come out? And I heard from my secretary that she even confessed her guilt?"

Lou Xun naturally didn't believe the confession at all. What was Gu Yulan's identity and why would she kidnap and sell children?

Even if she really admitted to this false charge now, she was probably forced to do so.

Yin Hong's breathing was very heavy. He picked up the tea in front of him and took a sip, his eyes a little dull.

"Your Aunt Gu's account suddenly had a huge amount of money remitted from overseas. The police have confirmed that it was the final payment she received for assisting the child trafficking gang."

"What?" Lou Xun's head was shocked by his words, and his handsome face was full of disbelief.

Yin Hong continued to make up stories, "I don't want to believe she's actually involved in this abduction, but the facts are right in front of me, and I can't do anything about it. But I can't understand why she would do this when the Yin family clearly doesn't worry about her food, drink, or expenses."

"Then you haven't asked her?" Lou Xun stared at the expression on his face with his dark eyes, trying to see through something.

Yin Hong was not afraid of his staring eyes, and looked straight at him without a trace of panic.

"You and your mother probably don't know this yet, but she's addicted to gambling and has even incurred hundreds of millions of dollars in debt behind my back. This isn't the first time she's resorted to such extreme means to make money."

"What about Tiantian?" Lou Xun asked calmly, his emotions surprisingly calm.

Yin Hong felt annoyed when he saw his calm expression. No wonder the fat man said in the past that he was not good at fooling people. Look, it was obvious that Lou Xun didn't believe him.

But that's true. From another perspective, he wouldn't believe such a poor excuse.

But please forgive me because my mind is really confused now. It is so confused that I don’t have the energy to think of a perfect reason to lie to him.

All he could not get rid of was the image of Gu Yulan crying and her dull eyes.

Seeing him like this, Lou Xun already knew what was going on, "Second Master, there are some things you can just hide from others, I don't need to.

I want to know what exactly happened with Aunt Gu's confession. Was it pressure from someone behind the scenes, or was it her own idea?

"It seems you have guessed it." Yin Hong gave up making up lies. After all, Lou Xun was not that easy to fool.

Forget it, just make it clear.

"You and I have been traveling around for a while now, so you must have realized how difficult this matter is. So it won't be so easy to resolve it. Moreover, even my uncle's face is useless this time, which is enough to show how powerful the person behind the scenes is."

"Tiantian is missing, and Fatty is involved in a kidnapping case. This is clearly targeting our Yin family, and they are determined to put her in jail. Not only that, the internal turmoil in the Yin family these days is also the work of someone behind the scenes."

"Speaking of which, apart from your mother being involved, it seems that not much has changed in the Lou family. That's why Fatty is so determined to get your mother out, because she knows that your mother has been dragged down to this point by us."

"She also said that your mother was her only close friend. It didn't matter if she went to jail, but if she implicated her, she would never be at peace for the rest of her life."

Lou Xun's heart tightened when he heard this. "So you were the one who sent the overseas remittance?"

Yin Hong nodded. "The fact that your mother was able to be brought out safely shows that Fatty's guess was correct. If the other party was targeting the Lou family, then she wouldn't be able to get out that door so easily, just like Fatty. Now, no matter what method I use, I can't get her out."

"Of course she knows your mother's personality, that's why I asked you out. Fatty's point is, we should keep it a secret for a while.

If you really can't hide it, just put the blame on the person behind it. Anyway, you can't let your mother know that she was the one who took the blame in exchange for her freedom, or she might make a scene."

At this point, Lou Xun could only nod.

Indeed, given his mother's affection for Aunt Gu, if she knew that she had taken all the blame, she would probably cry her eyes out.

"Second Master, I can't see Aunt Gu right now. Please tell her thank you for me." Lou Xun's voice changed, becoming a little choked and hoarse.

Yin Hong waved his hand. "No need to thank me. After all, this matter is directed at our Yin family. Of course, if you feel bad about it, please help us find Tiantian. I mean, use your overseas connections to find that girl."

"As for the rest..."

Yin Hong sighed deeply, and in an instant it seemed as if the hair on both sides of his temples had turned white.

Lou Xun tightened his grip on the cup and tried to make his tone sound natural.

"Don't worry, I won't give up on Aunt Gu's matter. I will continue to find a solution. But Tiantian, do you suspect that she has been taken abroad?"

When he thought about such a young girl being taken away from a foreign country, Lou Xun felt as if his heart was being strangled. He felt as sad as if his own daughter had disappeared.

Yin Hong sighed, "It's not ruled out, otherwise Jun Ye wouldn't have found any news after searching for so many days."

Lou Xun also thought it made sense and nodded, "Okay, I'll immediately arrange for overseas forces to help search."

After the conversation, the two went back to their respective companies to handle their affairs.

Lou Jiao's complexion was getting better and better, and she was clamoring to see Gu Yulan. Shu Yao insisted that she finish the infusion before going, but she couldn't wait.

Lou Xun received her call and held his forehead, "Find a way to hold Mom back. No matter what, don't let her go to the Yin family."

Shu Yao pouted, "You know what kind of temper our mother has. If she wants to leave, how can I stop her?"

Lou Xun: “…”

After a few seconds of silence, he said, "Leave it to me," and hung up the phone.
