C142 Old Man Zhou's Mind
Hearing Lee Hongtian's words, Old Master Zhou nodded slightly.
"Everyone go out first. Hongtian, you stay, I have something to say to you alone."
After that, Old Master Zhou slowly started to lecture.
At this moment, he only wanted to talk to Lee Hongtian alone, and some things could only be known by Lee Hongtian.
After hearing Old Master Zhou's instructions, Zhou Family and the rest of the people could only listen to him and walk towards the door.
Zhou Yafei and Chen Bing also looked meaningfully at Lee Hongtian before following Zhou Xun out of the ward. Zhou Xun even closed the door tightly.
Suddenly, only Lee Hongtian and Old Master Zhou were in the room.
After everyone left, Old Master Zhou could chat with Lee Hongtian for a while.
"Hongtian, what do you think about this matter?"
At this moment, Old Master Zhou looked at Lee Hongtian and asked.
"Lordmaster, I feel that this matter isn't simple. Someone is obviously trying to harm you." Lee Hongtian pondered for a moment before he answered Old Master Zhou with a frown.
Old Master Zhou nodded slightly after hearing Lee Hongtian's words.
"I know that too. Yafei is innocent. This has nothing to do with her. I didn't expect someone to have set me up." Old Master Zhou said in a heavy tone.
"Old Master, leave this to me. I'll definitely investigate this thoroughly. I'll get Uncle Zhou to give me that pot of tea you drank. I'll have someone take it and examine it." Lee Hongtian looked at Old Master Zhou and said with a firm tone.
"Mhmm, I'm relieved with you here. The person who saved me is definitely yours, right?" Old Master Zhou smiled as he said to Lee Hongtian.
"En, I got him to come here on purpose. Otherwise, there's no cure for him in the hospital." Lee Hongtian nodded in agreement.
Old Master Zhou knew Lee Hongtian's identity, so Lee Hongtian didn't deny it. Of course, he chose to tell him the truth.
"Hongtian, there's something that you might not know about, and I've never mentioned it to you." At this moment, Old Master Zhou's expression became awkward and said with a heavy tone.
"What is it?" Lee Hongtian asked in confusion.
"It's about Yafei's parents." Then, Old Master Zhou started to speak.
Hearing that, Lee Hongtian suddenly became curious and confused.
That's right, Lee Hongtian only knew a little about Zhou Yafei's parents. He only knew that her parents left when Zhou Yafei was very young. As for why Lee Hongtian left, Lee Hongtian didn't know. Zhou Yafei never mentioned it.
"Lordmaster, what happened to Yafei's parents?" Wu Tie asked Old Master Zhou in confusion after pausing for a while.
I've never told Yafei about Yafei's parents. She would always ask me about it, but I didn't tell her that I was afraid she wouldn't be able to take it. Yafei has been through too much since she was young.
Old Master Zhou said helplessly as he looked up at the ceiling.
"I understand. Yafei lacked the love of her parents since she was young. She grew up on her own, but it's a good thing that she became so strong." Lee Hongtian slightly nodded and spoke to Old Master Zhou.
"Lordmaster, can you tell me more about Yafei's parents? Perhaps I can be of some help." Lee Hongtian suggested to Old Master Zhou.
"Mn, back then, Yafei's parents went to the capital to negotiate a business deal. This was more about the future development of the entire Zhou Family than anything else, but they did not expect that the business deal would not succeed, and that they met with a car accident on their way back to the ocean. What's strange is that they did not find their bodies, so Yafei's parents went missing just like that."
Immediately after that, Old Master Zhou told them what happened to Zhou Yafei's parents.
Lee Hongtian's expression immediately turned serious after hearing that.
To what Old Master Zhou said, Zhou Yafei's parents had experienced a car accident, yet they couldn't find the body, not even any clues. This meant that someone was definitely deliberately hiding something.2
"Lordmaster, have you investigated who did this afterwards?" Who's the one who's talking business with Yafei's parents? "
After thinking for a moment, Lee Hongtian stared at Old Master Zhou and asked.
There had to be a hidden reason behind this, otherwise it was impossible for them to have no clues at all. As long as it was a person, they would leave behind clues and they would not disappear.
As the saying goes, motivation is hidden and not lost.
"Ai, no, I used everything I could, but I still didn't have any leads. The one who was discussing business with Yafei's parents was an international company in Beijing, but after the day Yafei's parents met with trouble, the company was emptied."
"At the beginning of the year, we all thought it was the people from this company, but after some investigation, we found out that the chairman died a few days before Yafei's parents' accident, so we had nowhere to investigate. Until now, we still don't know who did it."
Old Master Zhou sighed heavily as he shook his head. His eyes were filled with guilt as he lectured. His aged face looked so heavy and helpless.
One must know that the missing person was his own son and daughter-in-law. He was Old Master Zhou's most prized son, so naturally, Old Master Zhou would feel extremely hurt and in pain.
"Old Master, do you mean to say that all of this was planned beforehand? From the moment Yafei's parents entered the capital, the entire process was a huge conspiracy."
Lee Hongtian immediately reacted and told Old Master Zhou.
"You're right, this is a huge conspiracy, a conspiracy that's been plotted for a long time. That's why I've always kept the truth from Yafei. I didn't dare to tell her until there were no results." Old Master Zhou nodded heavily and said.
"Old Man, do you still remember the name of that international enterprise back then?" Lee Hongtian asked Old Master Zhou.
"Mm …" It was named after him, but he is already dead, and there is no way to investigate it. " Old Master Zhou answered softly and thought for a while before speaking.
"I'll investigate Yafei's parents thoroughly. I won't tell Yafei until there's a result. Rest assured, Old Master. With me here, nothing will happen to you two." Lee Hongtian stared at Old Master Zhou with determination as he spoke.
"En!" Old Master Zhou naturally also believed Lee Hongtian and nodded in agreement.
This was also the reason why Old Master Zhou wanted his granddaughter to marry Lee Hongtian.
