Chapter 435 Investigation
“Boss, boss,” Gong Tianhao was having a global meeting with his subordinates when Situ Xing suddenly barged in and said loudly, “Something bad has happened.”
Gong Tianhao turned his head and shouted at Situ Xing, “Get out!”
Situ Xing looked a little embarrassed and wronged. He touched his nose and said in a low voice, “Alright then, I’ll get out. After your meeting, I’ll have to tell you that someone is investigating sister-in-law.”
“Wait, come back!” Gong Tianhao’s ears were sharp, so of course, he heard Situ Xing’s muttering
He closed the conference and said with a sharp gaze, “Did you just say that someone is investigating Yu ‘Er?” Situ Xing nodded and said, “That’s right. Someone is investigating sister-in-law. Our people have arrested them. After interrogation, they told us they were under the orders of the Jiang family to investigate sister-in-law. They are the Jiang Family’s assassins.” At this point, his face was filled with anger as he said loudly, “That must be an order from Old Man Jiang. This old man, why is he so nosy? Why is he suddenly investigating sister-in-law?” Gong Tianhao’s presence turned sharp, and his eyes flashed with a trace of malice.
He said coldly, “Tao Zi just came back and Old Master Jiang immediately sent people over. He must have obtained some news.
“The people he sent over last time were all intercepted. He got nothing. It looks like he still hasn’t given up.”
Situ Xing was still a little confused, and he asked again, “But boss, why would Old Man Jiang suddenly investigate sister-in-law?”
“Because Tao Zi likes Yu ‘Er. Old Master Jiang probably has found that out.” Gong Tianhao did not hide anything.
Furthermore, there was no need to hide this matter anymore.
He and Xiao Lingyu were already in love and were about to get engaged. Even if Tao Zi liked Yu ‘Er, he was very understanding. He would not interfere with their relationship.
“Ah?” Situ Xing was surprised. “That cold popsicle actually likes sister-in-law? Does sister-in-law know?” Then, his eyes were filled with intense gossip.
Young Master Jiang and his boss were indeed good friends. Even the person they liked was the same woman.
However, his boss was better. He got sister-in-law pregnant already. Even if Xiao Lingyu didn’t like him, the child was a huge favor to his boss. But thankfully, his boss’ hard work paid off.
Situ Xing’s eyes sparkled as he asked curiously, “Boss, you and Young Master Jiang like the same woman. Will you fall out because of that?”
Gong Tianhao rolled his eyes at him and said unhappily, “I’m afraid you’ve watched too many TV dramas. I’m sorry to disappoint you. We didn’t have a fall-out.”
Tao Zi was a very broad-minded man. Plus, because he liked Xiao Lingyu, he couldn’t be with her. Therefore, he withdrew.
Situ Xing, “…” Why didn’t they fall out? How disappointing! Gong Tianhao glanced at him and said, “Why? Are you disappointed?” He looked at Situ Xing sinisterly. If the latter said yes, he would have to pay.
Situ Xing shuddered and shook his head, “No, of course not.”
Gong Tianhao pulled the topic back. “Did those people find anything? Did they send the information back?”
Situ Xing shook his head and said, “They haven’t found anything yet.”
“Something’s not right.” Gong Tianhao’s eyes were cold as he said, “If they didn’t find anything, how did Old Master Jiang find out about Yu ‘Er?”
Situ Xing was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He said seriously, “Boss, you mean that the information about sister-in-law might have reached Old Man Jiang’s ears already?” Gong Tianhao nodded and said, “It’s not a possibility, but a certainty.”
Situ Xing immediately flew into a rage and cursed loudly, “Those bastards, I’ll skin them alive!” He didn’t expect them to give him false information after his interrogation.
Gong Tianhao thought for a moment and said, “Last time, Old Master Jiang sent some normal scouts over, and I obscured everything.
“However, Old Master Jiang must have heard the news from somewhere and had his suspicions aroused again. So, he sent his assassins over this time. He really needed to get to the bottom of the truth.”
Speaking up to this point, he said mockingly and disdainfully, “The old man sure values his control over Tao Zi. It’s hard to train family assassins. These assassins will not take missions normally. However, Old Master Jiang utilized them just to prevent anyone from affecting Tao Zi. In the end, his people fell into our hands.”
At this point, Gong Tianhao realized Jiang Tao needed to usurp the power of the Jiang Family as soon as possible.
If Old Master Jiang continued to do this, he could end up hurting Yu ‘Er?
Currently, Gong Tianhao was there to protect Yu ‘Er and her family. But what if he was careless and allowed the assassins to capture Yu ‘Er?
Gong Tianhao thought for a moment and said, “Keep the assassins captive. I’ll leave them with you to experiment on. I’ll go talk to grandfather now.” Situ Xing, “…”
