74: Investigation

Investigation

Li Mei and Jiang Hai enjoyed the joy of having their daughter and grandchildren by their side. The empty space in their hearts had finally been filled.0

Li Mei looked at Tan Ming lovingly and touched the top of her head. "Accompany them later. It's almost one o'clock. Hurry up and eat. By the way, tomorrow is Wednesday. My classmate and master will arrive in Sea City tomorrow. I've booked a place to eat outside. Your father and I will pick you up after class to eat together."

Tan Ming recalled that her mother had asked her to become their disciple and learn martial arts. She nodded and agreed. "Got it, Mom."

The Jiang family was happy and harmonious, while Si Cheng returned to the company with a stifled heart.

Si Cheng's mind kept replaying the scene of Tan Ming and Jiang Huai standing side by side. He called Ning Gang and asked him to enter the office.

As soon as Ning Gang's figure appeared, Si Cheng hurriedly asked, "How's the matter I asked you to investigate previously?"

Ning Gang was stunned for a moment but quickly reacted. He closed the door and walked to the desk. "I've checked Jiang Huai's background. It's very ordinary. His father runs a small business, his mother is a housewife, and he has two older brothers."

Si Cheng frowned slightly and continued to ask, "Small business? How small? What do his two brothers do?"

What Ning Gang found was naturally news that the Jiang family had already filtered. It sounded like an ordinary family background. "The family runs a medium-sized supermarket with just over ten employees. Jiang Huai's eldest brother works as an insignificant lawyer in a law firm. I heard from their neighbor that he doesn't take on many cases a year. He doesn't even return home if he doesn't have money."

"The Second Brother is a police officer. He's in charge of household registration and mediating neighborhood disputes; the type that helps catch any cat or dog goes up to the roof."

When Si Cheng heard this investigation results, his furrowed brows relaxed and he casually leaned against the back of the chair. "He's indeed quite ordinary. Looks like he's the most promising person in their family."

Jiang Huai had never thought that his status and ability in the Jiang family would go from the bottom to first.

Ning Gang raised his eyebrows. "From the results of the investigation, that seems to be the case."

Si Cheng rubbed his index finger with his thumb. "Send someone to keep an eye on him."

Ning Gang looked at Si Cheng. "You want to confirm that there's a secret relationship between him and Tan Ming?"

Si Cheng stopped what he was doing with his fingertips. There was a hint of gloominess between his eyebrows, and his voice was cold. "I'm just taking precautions."

Ning Gang did not say anything else and nodded. "Then I'll get someone to do it."

Si Cheng couldn't tell what he was thinking about Tan Ming now. He was disgusted by what she had done in the past, but he didn't want to divorce her. If he had to find a reason, Si Cheng felt that he didn't want Tan Ming, who was a promiscuous woman, to harm others.

After Tan Ming had lunch, she could not wait to go to the company for classes in the afternoon. The opening ceremony and filming of the advertisement had already set her back a few days.

After class the next day, Tan Ming followed her parents' car to the restaurant. Jiang Huai was in charge of picking them up and preparing the accommodation for his master and grandmaster.

When they arrived at Sea City, of course they had to eat the specialty dishes made with local seafood.

Tan Ming followed her parents into the private room and saw an old man in his seventies sitting at the end of the table with a smile on his face. He looked like a kind old man that you would see when walking around town.

The man sitting next to the old man was in his fifties. He was wearing a short-sleeved polo shirt and a pair of black thin-framed glasses. He looked very refined and cultured.

Jiang Huai was standing obediently at the side, pouring tea for the two of them.

When Li Mei saw the familiar faces, she walked forward with a smile. "Master, Eldest Senior Brother, long time no see!"

Li Mei extended her hand. Zhu Cheng stood up and the two of them shook hands.

Zhu Cheng smiled and said, "Junior Sister, the last time I saw you was two years ago. Looking at your mental state, you're getting younger and younger! As expected, you're happier when good things happen. Let me congratulate you first! The family has finally been reunited for so many years. It's not easy!"

Li Mei had become Zhu Cheng's disciple and learned martial arts at the age of 20. She had been Zhu Cheng's junior for 33 years, so Zhu Cheng knew very much about the Jiang family.

Not many people knew that Tan Ming was the Jiang family's youngest daughter. When Li Mei heard her senior brother's sincere blessings, she was very happy. She couldn't conceal her smile. "That's right. After praying to Buddha and the heavens for so many years, it's finally worked."

After Li Mei greeted her senior brother, she went forward and bent down to hug Wang Jian. "Master, Sea City is much more fun. I've been here for a while. This time, you can spend more time with senior brother. I'll bring you around!"
