She abandoned her husband first, then her children, and was ecstatic after the divorce.

Xiao Zhou looked conflicted, but after a moment, he spoke firmly.

“We can’t just give up like this. The fact that they’re calling to threaten you doesn’t mean they’ll actually do anything. On the contrary, it might be because they’re panicking that they’re doing this. We still need to hurry and continue the investigation.”

Lin Qingran nodded slightly, "That's right, of course we can't back down. But from now on, everyone must be on high alert. Since the other side has already started to take action, they may have other methods waiting for us."

Just then, Lin Qingran's phone rang again. She took out her phone and her brows furrowed even more.

Xiao Zhou looked over with some doubt, only to see the three words "Wen Qingyu" clearly displayed on the caller ID.

Wen Qingyu was once a student sponsored by Lin Qingran. After graduating from studying abroad, she stayed overseas to manage the overseas branches of Shenghai Group for Lin Qingran.

At the same time, she is also Lin Qingran's private investigator.

Many important pieces of information were obtained with the help of Wen Qingyu.

Because her existence is extremely important, Lin Qingran will not contact him unless absolutely necessary.

So, Wen Qingyu's call this time might be to report on overseas work, but given the coincidence of the timing, Lin Qingran and Xiao Zhou both fell silent.

A moment later, Lin Qingran answered the phone, and Wen Qingyu's gentle voice came from the other end.

"Sister Jiuge, have you run into trouble in the country?"

Lin Qingran frowned, but spoke in a deliberately relaxed tone.

"We've run into a bit of trouble, but it's nothing serious. You're quite well-informed; how did you find out about this?"

Wen Qingyu was silent for a moment before speaking.

"It was quite a coincidence that my secretary bumped into Fu Rongrong and Shen Qiyan meeting."

It's not surprising that Fu Rongrong and Wen Qingyu live in the same city.

After all, Lin Qingran ran into Fu Rongrong when she held an art exhibition overseas last time.

But what was Shen Qiyan doing there?

"Is there a problem?"

“My man stumbled upon Shen Qiyan and Fu Rongrong meeting. Shen Qiyan asked him to contact the most famous detective in the area, saying he would offer a large sum of money to invite him back to China to help him investigate someone. You were the first person I thought of.”

Lin Qingran's expression gradually darkened.

Even Shen Qiyan is going to get involved?

However, it seems that she was most likely forced by Lin Yuyan.

"Your Uncle Jiang has already hidden my identity information, so he won't be able to find it for a while," Lin Qingran comforted her.

"But you really do need to help me investigate something."

After hanging up the phone, Xiao Zhou asked with some worry.

"Should Miss Wen be involved in the investigation of Zhao Quanying's case?"

Lin Qingran would never easily use Wen Qingyu, so the fact that he took the initiative to speak to Wen Qingyu must mean that the phone call just now made Lin Qingran realize that something was seriously wrong.

“Since our every move is being watched, and they’ve even called to threaten us, we might as well go along with them and keep quiet for a while,” Lin Qingran said.

Of course, the investigation must continue. She has never been one to sit idly by and wait for death, but at such a critical moment, taking a roundabout approach is not a problem.

Thinking about it, Lin Qingran frowned again.

"I'm just curious about one thing. Since they already know I'm investigating Zhao Quanying, do they know that I actually manage the Shenghai Group?"

Xiao Zhou gasped.

How could a stranger know something that even Zhou Lan and Fu Xiuheng couldn't find out?

But looking at Lin Qingran's expression, Xiao Zhou clearly understood one thing: in this world, there are no secrets that stay hidden forever.

"Don't be so nervous. Now that we've made preparations, Qingyu should be able to pull some strings and things will definitely turn around. Don't you know his capabilities?" Lin Qingran comforted her.

Xiao Zhou nodded somewhat heavily, "But Miss Fu is coming soon, do you really want to see her?"

After Wen Qingyu's people stumbled upon Fu Rongrong and Shen Qiyan's meeting, they secretly sent people to follow the two of them. Later, after Fu Rongrong saw Shen Qiyan off on his flight back to China, she immediately bought a ticket for the next flight back to China and headed straight for Yuncheng.

He will definitely come to see Lin Qingran when he returns to China.

“Now that things have come to this, there’s nothing left to hide,” Lin Qingran said.

“Now that Fu Xiuheng knows my true identity, there’s nothing wrong with recognizing Fu Rongrong. Besides, he has helped me a lot in the past, and there are some things I really shouldn’t hide from her.”

Fu Rongrong has always been a fiery and impulsive person; once she's made up her mind, no one can stop her.

Moreover, Fu Rongrong's thoughts are different from others; he genuinely cares for Lin Qingran.

I imagine that he came back this time to remind Lin Qingran of something.

Since we're here, let's just wait for him.

Sure enough, the next afternoon, the manor's security guards came over and told Lin Qingran that a woman had come outside, specifically asking to see him, and repeatedly calling him by the name he used when he lived at the Lin family home.

Lin Qingran nodded. "Let him in."

The security guard responded and left.

"Madam, our young lady says please come in."

Fu Rongrong gripped her handbag tightly, becoming somewhat nervous.

Although they had reunited long ago, Lin Qingran did not acknowledge her identity last time.

This time, Lin Qingran agreed to see him because she wanted to be honest with him.

Upon meeting his old friend, Fu Rongrong was very excited, but also a little timid, fearing that Lin Qingran would blame him.

With a mix of trepidation and excitement, Fu Rongrong finally entered the villa.

Lin Qingran stood at the door, smiling slightly at him.

"Rongrong, it's been a long time."

Fu Rongrong's eyes immediately reddened, and she rushed forward to hug Lin Qingran.

"Sister-in-law, I miss you so much."

When news of Lin Qingran's death broke, Fu Rongrong was six months pregnant, yet she still insisted on returning to China.

However, when he saw Lin Qingran, she was already lying in a cold grave.

He never imagined that Lin Qingran had faked her death, and that the two of them would actually reunite one day.

Fu Rongrong hugged Lin Qingran tightly, tears streaming down her face, and she sobbed as she spoke.

“Sister-in-law, do you know how heartbroken I was? I thought you were really gone, and I didn’t even get to see you one last time. I’ve felt guilty ever since.”

Lin Qingran gently patted Fu Rongrong's back, comforting her, "Silly girl, I'm fine, don't cry, it's all over now."

The two embraced for a while before Fu Rongrong slowly let go.

She wiped away her tears and carefully examined Lin Qingran.

"Sister-in-law, how have you been these past few years? You look even thinner than you did a few years ago."

Lin Qingran smiled slightly and pulled Fu Rongrong to sit down on the sofa.
