Why are you trying to steal her destiny? She's the little ancestor of the Xuanmen sect!

[Xiao Jiu, what's wrong?]

Coal Ball meowed and sat on the doll's back, tilting its head to look at Little Nine-Nine.

Xiao Jiu Jiu ran to her desk and turned on the lamp: "I... I want to leave a letter. After I've met Brother Ye's family, I'll go find my dad."

Do you know where your dad is?

Shaking her head, Xiao Jiujiu's eyes darted around: "I don't know, but Brother Ye definitely knows!"

Thinking about it, Xiao Jiujiu excitedly ran to the door.

I waited by the door for a while.

After confirming there was no sound, Xiao Jiu Jiu quietly opened the door a crack.

There's no one outside.

She peeked her head out from under the door.

A lump of coal squeezed out from below: "Nobody's here. Are you going to eavesdrop?"

"Yes!"

Taking off her slippers, Xiao Jiu Jiu walked barefoot to the door of the study.

The door to the room was ajar, and the assistant was standing inside.

"Investigate Qin Yuyang thoroughly, make sure you find out the truth." Ye Chen's eyes turned slightly cold.

He wouldn't let Xiao Jiujiu leave easily; he had to find out the truth about that person.

The assistant nodded: "Yes, Mr. Ye, I'll give you the results tomorrow."

It's too easy to check a person's superficial appearance.

The investigation Ye Chen mentioned should ideally involve investigating the ancestors of eight generations back.

"Ah."

That's all Xiao Jiu Jiu heard.

Seeing that his assistant was about to leave, he immediately got up and ran back to his room.

The coal ball flashed back into the room like a black lightning bolt.

"Coal Ball, we'll know tomorrow, and then we'll figure out how to find Father."

Xiao Jiu Jiu sat at the desk, holding the paper and pen she had taken, and began to write.

On the desk, Coal Ball glanced at it and covered its eyes with its paws.

The next morning, Xiao Jiu Jiu followed Ye Chen to breakfast as if in a daze.

I fell asleep before I even fastened my seatbelt after getting in the car.

Her several new dolls were placed aside.

He held one of them in his arms.

The car gradually headed towards the capital.

After one hour.

Little Jiu Jiu is sleeping soundly.

The assistant suddenly spoke up: "Mr. Ye, the chairman and the old man are asking why you didn't take a plane back?"

Even though it could have been resolved much faster, Mr. Ye chose to take a car back instead.

That's over a thousand kilometers!

Upon hearing the sound, Coal Ball suddenly pricked up its ears.

It seemed to be feigning sleep, but it was eavesdropping.

Ye Chen glanced at Xiao Jiu Jiu, his eyes gentle: "I have my own considerations. I told my dad not to worry so much, just wait."

"Also, you are my assistant."

Retracting his gentle demeanor, Ye Chen stared coldly at his assistant.

The assistant shuddered: "Mr. Ye, it's the chairman and the old man who are anxious to see Miss Liu."

"No rush, just do what you're supposed to do."

Ye Chen's expression was indifferent, a stark contrast to his demeanor when facing Xiao Jiujiu.

"Yes."

The assistant nodded.

Coal Ball couldn't help but mutter: That's it? Nothing else?

It relaxed its body slightly, its ears drooping, ready to continue sleeping.

Unexpectedly, a few minutes later, Ye Chen spoke again: "Ah Kuang, how did the things I arranged for you yesterday go?"

The main event is coming!

The coal briquettes tightened up again.

His body has beautiful and smooth muscle lines.

"Mr. Ye, we have the results."

The assistant looked at the iPad in his hand: "The Qin Yuyang that Miss Liu mentioned is the richest man in G City, and his current wife is Ye Xuan."

"Current?" Ye Chen caught the key word and frowned slightly.

"Correct."

Nodding, the assistant continued, "Qin Yuyang previously attended a charity gala we held in S Province and bought an eight million yuan jade bracelet to give to his current wife."

His mother was recently hospitalized and has been staying at Xihe Hospital in Beijing for over a month.

This Xihe Hospital is the largest private hospital in the capital, and its services and facilities are top-notch.

A single night's stay can easily cost tens of thousands of yuan.

Not to mention the luxurious VIP wards.

Xihe Hospital is a property owned by the Ye family.

"I wonder what the relationship is between Miss Liu and him..."

The assistant hesitated for a moment, seemingly wanting to say something more, but then stopped, secretly pondering what was going on in his mind.

Miss Liu's sudden mention, could it be that she has some kind of kinship with Qin Yuyang?

Is it...

The assistant dared not voice his guess.

Coal Ball's ears twitched, and then it perked up to eavesdrop.

This way, it's easier to eavesdrop on signals.

Ye Chen's eyes darkened: "What else did you find out?"

The assistant made a quick check: "Mr. Ye, the information has been sent to you."

"Tell me."

About ten years ago, Qin Yuyang suddenly became rich by relying on his deceased first wife, and enjoyed great success for a time.

Six years ago, Qin Yuyang's first wife became pregnant, and in the same year, Qin Yuyang cheated on his wife.

At that time, the first wife had not yet given birth, but the mistress at the time, who is now Mrs. Ye, Ye Xuan, became pregnant.

The first wife was so angry that she suffered a difficult childbirth and died from postpartum hemorrhage.

The child was missing when he was less than six months old; he is suspected of being abducted by human traffickers.

Qin Yuyang wasn't too grief-stricken because Ye Xuan had given birth to twins, a boy and a girl, right after the child was lost.

Qin Yuyang now has both a son and a daughter.

Hearing this, Ye Chen's expression turned very unpleasant: "Don't tell Xiao Jiu about this."

He saw the photos of the Qin family in the documents.

The older twin sister bears a striking resemblance to Xiao Jiu Jiu, and both of them also resemble Qin Yu Yang.

They are sisters without any identification.

There are too many troubles in wealthy families, and Ye Chen was worried about Xiao Jiu Jiu going back, fearing she would be bullied.

Seeing his grim expression, the assistant continued, "Qin Yuyang's younger brother, Qin Yuhai, is a detective stationed at the Guanghua Police Station in G Province. He had a falling out with Qin Yuyang two years ago and is now in the capital, where he has helped solve many cases."

This time, when their grandmother fell ill and came to the capital, it was Qin Yuhai who arranged a hospital room for her through connections.

Compared to the mercenary Qin Yuyang, Qin Yuhai was so upright that he didn't seem like a member of the Qin family.

"Okay, I see."

Ye Chen lowered his eyes to look at the fast-sleeping Xiao Jiu Jiu, his tone cold and hard: "Our Ye family can give Xiao Jiu Jiu the best, so it's fine if we don't go to the Qin family."

Whether it's education, resources, protection, or anything else, they do their best.

There's no need to make Xiao Jiujiu go back and suffer.

"But before he passed away, Mr. Liu said that Miss Liu needed to find her biological father, and that it was very important." The assistant hesitated.

He had investigated Liu Huai before coming here.

That was a Celestial Master who was famous throughout the capital decades ago, and even Old Master Ye respected him greatly.

A divination is worth a fortune.

Ye Chen stared at Xiao Jiujiu with a stern face.

After a long silence, he sighed and said, "Never mind, I'll ask Xiao Jiu for her opinion when she wakes up."

He couldn't make decisions for Xiao Jiu without her consent, or Xiao Jiu would dislike him.

Coal Ball opened one eye and glanced at Ye Chen before going back to sleep.

When Little Nine wakes up, it will tell Little Nine about this.

"Okay, Mr. Ye."
