Chapter 748. A Family of Four (3)
As Xi Xiaye listened, she squinted her twinkling eyes and nodded. “Of course, I remember. I think that person might very possibly be Ah Shi’s father, but we couldn’t find any news about that person for a very long time, could we?”
“Mmm, he definitely noticed that we’ve been looking for him, so a lot of the information has been sealed. He’s very skilled at countering our investigations. I think that he should be the person bidding against Gu Lingsha at the auction. In fact, apart from us, Doris was also trailing after him.”
“Gu Lingsha’s mother? Why would she be trailing that person? Does she know the mysterious person too? In fact, are you sure the person chasing after him was Doris and not Gu Lingsha?” Xi Xiaye frowned and asked a little puzzled.
“It was definitely Doris, so based on my judgment, that pen should’ve been bid for by Doris and not Gu Lingsha.”
“Doris? Is she very close to Lingtian and Ah Shi? Otherwise, why would she… Why do I find some of these things so odd? Is there no way of finding out from Doris who she was chasing after?” Xi Xiaye clutched the glass in her hands tightly as she asked.
Although Mu Yuchen smiled, his gaze darkened slightly. “Even Doris herself doesn’t know who she was chasing after, but there weren’t many people whom she would spend so much effort into tracking down.”
“Have you guessed who that person is already?” She was all too familiar with his silent and bleak expression.
He kept quiet and leaned back against the chair before looking up at the sky and clouds outside the window. For a long while, he did not continue.
Deep in thought, Xi Xiaye turned to look at him and did not continue asking about it. She only gently patted his hand and got up unhurriedly. “When you’ve straightened things out, let me know. I want to know who this old trash man is too.” She then turned to leave the room.
