Translator: Lonelytree

“Master, the people we sent didn’t find anything abnormal about that place. Young Master Jiang was doing well, and he didn’t have intimate contact with any woman!” The people sent by the Qin Family reported. Of course, this report had already been edited by Gong Tianhao.

When Qin Xingbao heard this, his serious face scrunched up slightly. This was completely different from what he had expected.

He trusted his subordinates, but he had a strange feeling in his heart.

Since Jiang Tao didn’t find any woman at that backward place, why did he ask Qin Yan to break off the engagement?

As the heir of the Jiang family, he should understand that the political marriage would bring great benefits for both the Qin and Jiang Families.

Qin Yan overheard the conversation between her father and his subordinates outside his father’s study. A wave of doubt immediately rose in her heart.

With her sixth instinct as a woman, she knew Jiang Tao had a woman in his heart. It was the only reason why he had rejected her.

She clenched her fists, then let go, turned around, and left.

She walked to the garage, got into the car, made a phone call, and drove out. About an hour later, she arrived at a relatively abandoned city district. Her car stopped.

She got out of the car, wearing a pair of large sunglasses. It covered half of her beautiful face. Even so, her clothes and temperament did not fit in with this place.

However, she seemed to be very familiar with this place.

As soon as Qin Yan got off the car, she went straight to the entrance of the alley. This alley was a little dark, but after making several turns, she came to an old neighborhood. It was very dark, and the surroundings were also quiet. It looked a little creepy.

She came to a staircase in the middle of the neighborhood and walked up. In the quiet place, only the sound of her high heels could be heard.

The room was a mess. Pieces of waste paper were scattered on the ground. Photos were piled on a long and big desk. The pictures were of the most powerful people in the capital. They were incriminating pictures of these people cheating or doing some dirty deal. Any of the pictures would cause a huge wave if released to the public.

A skinny man wearing a brimmed hat was sitting in front of the table. He was holding a pen in his hand and writing something with his head down.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. He immediately became alert and looked up. His beard was long, and his face couldn’t be seen clearly. His pair of beady eyes looked around.

He asked sternly, “Who is it?”

“It’s me!” The woman said from outside the door.

“Come in!” He went to open the door.

As soon as Qin Yan entered, she wrinkled her nose. Then, she covered her nose with her hand. She looked at the messy house and frowned. Then, she complained, “Your house is still smelly and dirty. Can’t you clean it or change to a cleaner and more beautiful room?”

It sounded like she was close to the owner of the room.

The man, Leng Feiyang, mocked, “I’m not as rich and powerful as Miss Qin. I’m just a small private detective.” He walked to his chair and sat down. Then, he asked directly, “May I know why Miss Qin is here?”

Qin Yan waved the smell away and walked forward. Her eyes scanned the pictures on the desk. She didn’t seem surprised to see them.

She frowned when she reached the other dusty chair in the room. She didn’t sit but took out two stacks of cash from her bag. “Investigate someone for me!”

Leng Feiyang looked at the cash on the table without any change in expression. He chuckled and said, “No negotiations at all? This target must be a complicated one.”

Qin Yan said directly, “It’s Jiang Tao. I want to know everything about Jiang Tao when he was in that small place, including which woman he was close to.”

“Jiang Tao? The eldest young master of the Jiang Family?” Leng Feiyang raised his eyebrows and asked.

“That’s right!” Qin Yan nodded.

“That’s crazy!” Leng Feiyang said indifferently, “No matter how bold I am, I don’t dare offend the capital’s big families.”

“Two hundred thousand!” Qin Yan said.

Leng Feiyang pursed his lips into a smile and said, “Miss Qin, if I remember correctly, young master Jiang is about to become your fiancé. The Jiang and Qin families have already announced this good news to the public. I don’t think it’s good for you to ask me to investigate your fiancé!”

“300,000!”

“I’m just a small fry compared to the big families. I don’t want to die. I still wish to live.”

“One million!” Qin Yan said indifferently, “Detective Leng, I believe in your ability. I’ll pay you one million no matter you complete the investigation or not. How about it?”

Leng Feiyang spun the pen with one hand and tapped the table with the other. His sharp eyes stared at Qin Yan for a moment, and then he said with a smile, “Deal! However, Miss Qin, you should know my rules.”

Qin Yan took out a card and placed it on the table. She said, “There’s 500,000 yuan in here!”

“Wonderful!” Leng Feiyang laughed out loud. “In that case, Miss Qin, I’ll accept your order.”

“I want the result as soon as possible!” Qin Yan said, “Jiang Tao will return to that place after the engagement. It’ll be hard for you to do your work when he’s back there.”

Leng Feiyang nodded and said, “Okay, thank you for your reminder, Miss Qin!”

After Qin Yan left, Leng Feiyang picked up his phone and made a call, “I want to book a plane ticket to City Z.”

...

In the Jiang family’s study room

“Master, the eldest young master was normal when he was over there!” The people reported to Old Master Jiang.

Old Master Jiang frowned slightly and asked with slight doubt, “Everything is normal?”

“Yes,” the subordinate reported. “When the eldest young master is over there, he spent his life working. He is a working machine.”

“There’s no woman whom he’s close to?” Old Master Jiang asked with obvious doubt.

This wasn’t right at all. But the report couldn’t be wrong.

His subordinate reported, “No. The only people he was in contact with were his female subordinates. But, he was very aloof around them. He didn’t have any contact with them in private.”

Old Master Jiang held his walking stick with both hands and looked deep in thought and doubt. He ordered, “Then, stop the investigation.” After all, Tao ‘Er had agreed to the engagement.

After his subordinates left, Old Master Jiang held his walking stick and rubbed the jade ring on his thumb with one hand. He frowned slightly and thought deeply. A moment later, he asked his men to summon Jiang Tao.

He said with a stern expression, “You must perform well at the engagement ceremony tomorrow.”

Jiang Tao replied expressionlessly, “Okay!”

...

Li Yuanhang reported the investigation to Gong Tianhao at Imperial Palace Group.

He reported the information in his hands to Gong Tianhao and said seriously, “Tianhao, the woman who was drugged and broke into your room was indeed Xiao Lingyu!”

Gong Tianhao frowned slightly and looked serious. He opened the document and it was all about Xiao Lingyu when she was in City Z.

Li Yuanhang said, “At that time, Xiao Lingyu was framed and drugged. She knew she had to escape, but she accidentally broke into your room. After that, you...”

At this point, Li Yuanhang paused, “After you left the room, she used your identity and asked the hotel to get a video of her being followed and drugged as evidence. Tianhao, it seems that we have misunderstood her.”

At that time, they thought that the woman was someone who approached Gong Tianhao to use his identity. They had no idea she was a drugged victim.

Gong Tianhao was thus certain that the child in Xiao Lingyu’s stomach was really his. Jiang Tao told him that he was rejected because Xiao Lingyu was pregnant with a stranger’s child.

At the thought of this, Gong Tianhao, who was always calm, cold, ruthless, and calm, had a change in his heart. Emotions like excitement, happiness, rare timidity, and other complicated feelings surfaced.

At this moment, Li Yuanhang said hesitantly, “Tianhao, since the woman that day is Xiao Lingyu, and Xiao Lingyu is pregnant, then the child in her belly is...”

“It’s mine.” Gong Tianhao’s tone sounded no different, but Li Yuanhang, who knew him well, could obviously hear the slight tremble.

Gong Tianhao immediately stood up from his chair, picked up the suit on the hanger, and put it on his arm. He said, “Yuanhang, book the fastest flight ticket to City Z. I want to go to Taoyuan Village as soon as possible!”

‘I have a child! I have a child! I have a child!’

Li Yuanhang somewhat understood Gong Tianhao’s feelings. He was also happy for Gong Tianhao.

Previously, he had already noticed Gong Tianhao showed extra care for Xiao Lingyu. He was already planning to set them up. Now, there was no need for that.

Li Yuanhang nodded with a smile and said, “I’ll book a plane ticket for you now. Tianhao, do you need to prepare anything else?”

Gong Tianhao was slightly stunned and did not understand.

He asked, “Why do I need to prepare anything?”

Li Yuanhang rolled his eyes helplessly and said, “Tianhao, Xiao Lingyu is pregnant. She is pregnant with your child. I believe she is six months pregnant. Pregnant women need nutrition.”

Gong Tianhao immediately snapped to realization.

He said, “Okay, then get someone to buy the best milk powder and other nutrition products as soon as possible.”

He hesitated for a moment and added, “Yuanhang, get someone to customize a baby carriage. Then, get the designer to design a children’s room. Also, get someone to prepare the necessities for the baby!”

When Li Yuanhang heard this, he asked in surprise, “Tianhao, what...”

“I’m not going to let my child be an illegitimate child.” Gong Tianhao said sharply.

“Okay, I understand,” Li Yuanhang nodded. Then, he sighed and said, “The world is really fickle. Just a moment ago, you were a diamond bachelor in the capital. But suddenly, you’re a father with a child. If people knew, jaws would drop.”

Of course, he also understood it was not the right time to announce this matter. He was also shocked by how calmly and easily Gong Tianhao had accepted this news.

“Alright. Tianhao, I’ll go arrange the things now.” Li Yuanhang said.

“Wait!” Gong Tianhao suddenly stopped Li Yuanhang.

Li Yuanhang stopped and looked around with some confusion. He asked, “What’s wrong, Tianhao?”

Gong tianhao said, “Yuanhang, I don’t know how long I’ll be staying at Taoyuan Village this time. I’ll need you to look after the company for me.”

Li Yuanhang smiled and said, “Tianhao, of course, I’d do that for you. We’re buddies. Do you even need to ask me that?”

Gong Tianhao just smiled.

...

After Old Master Gong returned home from picking strawberries, Xiao Wang told him about Gong Tianhao’s order.

“The brat wants me to buy Xiao Lingyu’s remaining strawberries?” Old Master Gong was slightly surprised. “He wants me to go negotiate with the girl?”

Xiao Wang scratched the back of his head and nodded very seriously. “Yes, Chief!”

Old Master Gong immediately asked with some confusion, “That’s strange. Why would the brat ask me to do this?”

“Chief, I have no idea.” Xiao Wang replied very seriously.

Old Master Gong looked at Little Wang and said unhappily, “I expect nothing less from you. You know nothing but to snitch about me to that brat. Whose subordinate are you?”

Xiao Wang said, “Chief, I wasn’t snitching. I was merely updating your latest condition to the eldest young master. The young master is very concerned about you.”

Old Master Gong waved his hand impatiently and said, “Alright, alright. I’ve heard that excuse more than a hundred times already.”

Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang, “...”

They were also very helpless.

They simply couldn’t afford to offend the eldest young master.

Old Master Gong said, “Since that brat wants to buy the remaining strawberries, I’ll go to Zhengyang’s house. His strawberries are selling like hotcakes. If I fail to get anything for him, the brat is going to blame me.” Then, Old Master Gong paused. He turned to Xiao Wang, “Xiao Lingyu’s strawberries are expensive, be it wholesale or retail prices. Did the brat set a price for you?”

Xiao Wang shook his head and said, “No.”

Xiao Lingyu’s strawberries were expensive, but would that matter to the eldest young master?

He was the richest person in the country!
