Father is a villainous Buddhist disciple? He'll just be beaten into the light of the righteous
Chapter 74 Dad just wants you to be a good person
After giving his statement at the police station and returning home, Shen Jiyuan immediately called Lao Jiang and asked him to investigate the events of four years ago again.
Although Lao Jiang had checked for him before, he hadn't found anything useful.
"Four years ago?" Old Jiang was taken aback. "Didn't we already check that before?"
Shen Jiyuan hesitated for a moment, but still managed to downplay the "horse-riding" game and the fact that he had been tricked.
"A game of cat and mouse?" Old Jiang's voice took on a serious tone. "You mean, you were being targeted by these people four years ago?"
Shen Jiyuan hummed in agreement. "Do you... know anything about this game?"
"Not bad." Old Jiang chuckled. "Those of us in this line of work definitely need to know a lot of 'new things,' otherwise how can we keep going?"
"But wasn't this game cracked down on by the police two years ago?"
"Wasn't the dramatic change in Jincheng's high society two years ago precisely because of this?"
"However, the person who started the game has not been caught, and the police still haven't found him."
Shen Jiyuan frowned and said, "Help me investigate Bian Xiong, the former shareholder of my company four years ago."
"He knows Sun Huai."
"Moreover..." Shen Jiyuan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Four years ago, I was drugged, and that was Sun Huai's doing."
"I don't know what role Su Qian played in all of this, whether it was a coincidence, intentional, or..." He didn't finish his sentence.
Old Jiang was somewhat surprised. "Bian Xiong? Wasn't he in jail for embezzling public funds, and also for using that stuff?"
"I remember you acquired all of his shares, didn't you?"
"You mean, four years ago, he and Sun Huai set up a scheme to frame you?"
Shen Jiyuan said, "This is just my suspicion."
Old Jiang was silent for a moment before saying, "Okay, I'll help you investigate."
"But this matter is difficult to investigate, and it will probably take some time. You'll have to wait."
Shen Jiyuan hummed in agreement, "Okay, I understand. Go as soon as possible."
Old Jiang nodded again.
After their brief phone call ended, when Shen Jiyuan came out again, he saw Shen Ji squatting outside his study, looking longingly at him. He pulled out a wooden fish from somewhere and started tapping it.
Fortunately, he didn't make up any rhymes this time.
Shen Jiyuan looked down at him, "Where did you get this piece of junk?"
Shen Jidao said, "Yeye, Daddy gave it to me."
Shen Jiyuan lifted him up from the ground with a disgruntled expression. "Don't sit on the ground, isn't it dirty?"
Shen Ji said "Oh," then suddenly leaned closer and whispered, "Dad, are you having someone investigate what happened four years ago?"
Shen Jiyuan was taken aback, then said, "It's none of your business, children shouldn't meddle in adult matters."
"Hmph, hmph, hmph." Shen Ji said, hands on her hips, "But I know a really amazing uncle who can find out so many things!"
"Oh?" Shen Jiyuan chuckled. "What can you possibly find out?"
Shen Jidao said, "Dad, a new teahouse called Yunxiangju recently opened on Furong Road. On the surface, it's a place to drink tea, but..."
He paused, then whispered, "What they're doing behind the scenes isn't just drinking tea. That uncle told me that Sun Huai has been coming and going from there for the past six months."
"Should we ask Uncle Xing to go and take a look?"
Shen Jiyuan was taken aback.
Yunxiang Residence?
He had indeed heard of this name before, and had even gone to have tea with it twice.
The environment was indeed nice, but because it was too far away, he rarely went there. He preferred to go to Suifangzhai.
How did that brat Shen Ji know about this place?
He squinted at Shen Ji.
Shen Ji blinked. "My mother used to love going there for tea. I went with her."
He didn't know if Su Qian liked going to tea houses, but according to the information he found, Su Qian had indeed been going to Yunxiangju frequently in the past six months.
Shen Jiyuan's eyes showed a hint of sudden realization and doubt. "What exactly does Su Qian teach you?"
Shen Ji snorted, "My mother taught me a lot; now I'm a genius excelling in both academics and martial arts!"
Shen Jiyuan, unusually, didn't refute him. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "You said you'd introduce me to a very capable person, is that your uncle?"
"Yes, yes, Daddy, would you like to get to know him?"
"However, this uncle doesn't like meeting people; he's a total shut-in. So even if Dad wants to get to know him, he can only contact him online. You two can just be online friends."
Shen Jiyuan: "..."
Yoko […]
Geniuses often have some strange quirks, but Shen Jiyuan didn't take it seriously.
He asked, "Okay, what's his name?"
Shen Jidao said, "His surname is Ye, and his given name is... Mosa."
Shen Jiyuan: "..."
"That's his online name. Dad doesn't know his real name either. I only know his last name is Ye. You can call him Ye Ye."
Shen Jiyuan gave a forced smile. "Is this yet another one of your 'dog dads'?"
Shen Ji: "..."
His lips twitched. "No, I only have one dog dad."
Shen Jiyuan chuckled, "That's a real pity. You won't have a stray dog dad to take you out to eat shit anymore. Sigh, you'll have to make do with delicacies at my house. That's so presumptuous of you."
Shen Ji: "..."
He rummaged through his arms and legs, "Old Deng, you've changed! You're no longer the aloof Buddhist monk! You don't resemble a Buddhist monk at all anymore!"
Shen Jiyuan gave a forced smile. "Didn't you say I was devoutly worshipping Buddha against my conscience?"
"I'm afraid I can't recite this Buddhist scripture anymore; I'll switch to reciting other scriptures."
Shen Ji exclaimed, "What's changed?"
Shen Jiyuan smiled warmly, "Parenting tips, I even had Uncle Zhong bring back the magic tool. See how good I am to you?"
Shen Ji: "..."
"Come here." Shen Jiyuan tucked him under his armpits, and with his other hand elegantly tucked into his pocket, they went downstairs. "Dad will take you to see the magical artifact we brought back to our house."
"It will absolutely excite you to the point of screaming!"
Shen Ji struggled to slide to the ground, not believing that old man Shen Jiyuan would prepare any surprise for him.
More like a fright.
But why would Shen Jiyuan give him this opportunity?
He held Xiao Biga tightly, and very elegantly walked to the large vase next to the TV in the living room. He smiled and pulled out a thin bamboo stick from it, chuckling, "Son, this is a good thing."
"Dad has been learning how to take care of the kids these past few days and has learned a lot."
"Sigh, many people tell me that good people come out under the stick."
Shen Jiyuan sighed softly again, feigning concern, and said, "Dad doesn't actually want to do this. There's a saying that goes, 'If you hit your son, you feel the pain too.'"
"Dad just..."
Shen Jiyuan affectionately patted Shen Ji's big head. No matter how deep his act was, he couldn't hide the schadenfreude in his eyes.
"Dad just... wants you to be a good person."
