Qiao Mei compared this address with the one Liang Lan had written down for her. It was almost exactly the same! The only difference was the house number. The two addresses were located next to each other.

"That's all I know," Zhou Sheng said.

"Thank you, Grandpa Zhou. Then we won't disturb you anymore. We'll come and visit you another time," Qiao Mei said.

The two of them drove home. As soon as they entered the courtyard, Qiao Mei rushed to the study to make a call to Yao Nian.

"Hello? Yao Nian, can you come to my house immediately?" Qiao Mei said anxiously.

"I'm on vacation now. Can we talk after my vacation?" Yao Nian said impatiently.

Every time he was on vacation, there would always be someone looking for him. It was either Qiao Mei asking him to investigate something or Xia Zhe asking him to do some intelligence investigation that was very dangerous.

"Three times! Three times the price!" Qiao Mei said.

"Even if you give me 10 times the price, I still want to take a break!" Yao Nian said.

"20 times!" Qiao Mei shouted into the phone.

"Deal," Yao Nian said and hung up. Who would reject money in this day and age?

Yao Nian did not know what had happened to make Qiao Mei so anxious that she would pay 20 times the original price. Feeling resigned, Yao Nian changed and set off for the courtyard house to look for her. If he drove faster, he might be able to make it in time for dinner at her house!

Qiao Mei waited patiently for Yao Nian to arrive. She suddenly regretted asking Yao Nian to come over. After all, this matter involved an overseas location and it was almost impossible for anyone to go overseas now. Even if Yao Nian wanted to, he might not be able to find out anything about Zhou Hua and Liang Juan.

"I'm here. Tell me about your issue," Yao Nian said as he walked into the study.

"Can you investigate something overseas?" Qiao Mei asked dejectedly.

The corners of Yao Nian's mouth twitched a few times before he asked, "Do you want to take my life? Of course I can't. Even my pigeons can't fly out of this country, let alone a person! If I have that kind of clout, I won't still be an information broker."

Qiao Mei sighed and said, "I guess as much. Forget it, let's not worry about this matter for now. Since you're already here, have a meal before you go off."

"I just know you'll ask me to stay for a meal! You're not that nasty! So who will reimburse me for the transport this time?" Yao Nian asked as he held out his hand.

Qiao Mei gave him 50 dollars and said, "Come out and have dinner."

After dinner, Qiao Mei headed to the study and looked at the photos for a long time. She really wanted to know what had happened back then. Or rather, she wanted to take revenge for her grandmother. She could not let Zhou Hua and Liang Juan continue to have such a carefree life overseas.

Qiao Mei closed her eyes and took a deep breath. There was still a long way to go and the time was not ripe yet. It would not be too late to take revenge in the future when the chance presented itself.

Early the next morning, there was a visitor at the house. After Qiao Mei returned to the capital, she did not have a day of peace. Many people came and looked for her every day.

"Aunt? Why are you here?" Qiao Mei asked in surprise.

"If I don't come here, you won't go and look for me! I'm here to urge you to go to the hospital for a checkup! You've already postponed your checkup several times. If you don't go this time, I'm going to bring all the machines to your house to do a checkup for you!" Xia Fang said as she pretended to be angry.

Qiao Mei immediately hugged Xia Fang's arm and said, "Do you know I already made plans to go and look for you today? It's just a coincidence that you're here too. We are so in sync with each other!"

"Then change your clothes and come with me now. The car is waiting. I have asked my eldest brother to lend me the car," Xia Fang said seriously.

"Um… can we go later? I want to eat first," Qiao Mei stammered.

"No, we might need to draw your blood later. If you eat before that, the test results won't be accurate. Come with me now!" Xia Fang grabbed Qiao Mei and turned to walk out.

Qiao Mei had no choice but to go along. She returned to her room to change her clothes and left with Xia Fang. Before they left, Xia Zhe went to send them off at the door. At that moment, Qiao Mei saw a smug smile on Xia Zhe's face. She was sure that it was Xia Zhe who had asked Xia Fang to come!

"Isn't Xia Zhe coming with me?" Qiao Mei asked through gritted teeth as she looked at Xia Zhe through the car window.

"I hear that he needs to go to the army base in the capital to report on work today, so he won't be able to accompany you. It's enough to have me around," Xia Fang said.
