CHAPTER 558


By the time Li Jing got herself together, she put a call through to her private investigator.


She did not get much time the last time they spoke as she spent most of the day talking with her grandfather and at home, foreplaying with Ye Cheng. After that, she had annoying cramps to cntend with.


"Good day ma."


"Good afternoon to you."


"My apologies concerning our last phone call. I never intended to be the bearer of bad news."


"I know. I understand. If there is anything, it is I who should be apologizing for being so unprofessional about things."


"You are human, ma"am. It is very much understandable. Now, from where I left off. I could trace out a little further and saw that he was buried at the house they lived which is anonymously now owned by someone but for yourself and your mother, you disappeared."


"Disappeared? I am still here aren"t I?"


"Yes, you are and that is another reason why it is strange? If only you could remember, you can probably explain to me what really happened on that day. But other than that, it is like that accident led us to a dead end."


"I do not know. I do not remember anything."


"Have you pushed through enough? Or does the trauma of the past prevent you from doing so? It is like you are scared that in your doing so, you may see the things you are not yet prepared for."


For a while Li Jing did not say anything to him. It wasn"t that she did not have anything to say to him but for the fact that he was right. Maybe not in all but for the greater part, he was.


She was scared to dig in too deep into her past for whats he might see.


Mentally, she wasn"t prepared. Back then the doctor her foster father took her to see stated that perhaps she had an accident and the trauma from it was preventing her from digging into her past memories.


It was either that or she had lost them over sometime now and that was hardly true since the last thing she recalled when she woke up was seeing his face and he stating that he adopted her.


"Umm, perhaps. I… I do not know what to say. This accident you are speaking of happned a long time ago and umm digging back now, I do not know if that would be possible."


"You would have to try, ma. You are our key hope of getting anything oyut fo this case. Only you can tell us what happened to your mother."


"What if I blacked out too and went into a coma and then someone saved me?"


"Even at that, no parent would leave their child and run away. You might want to dig in further into your family and by that, I mean your foster father."


"I see. I thought so too."


"Good. For now, I believe my work is done. The rest is up to you and the success in finding your mum, rest on your memory. Perhaps if you recall something from it, we would have a better lead. Other than that, case closed."


"I understand. Thank you."


As soon as she dropped the call, she closed her eyes briefly. Things were really heading in the direction that she expected.


"I guess I have no choice now bt to start digging and for that, I need to go home."


***


Days pa.s.sed and nothing unusual happened. She was still thinking of ways in which she could walk back in there and talk to the but when she reasoned the situation well, it was only Lin Chun who knew all about her and her earlier guess would still be her hope.


She needed to have a private meeting with him.


On the other hand, Li Xiu kept her distance from Li Jing first. She needed to plan well and make sure she does not become any scape goat to be used by Bai Qing Mei and Hao Huizhong.


Ding Jiaying was now her strong wing man with lots of ideas. They worked at night, thinking and canceling any thought that has so much loophole.


As for Hao Huizhong, his plan was already in motion and all that remained was implementing it and that very day, he planned on doing so.


"Hey babe," he smiled into his phone as he watched Bai Qing Mei blush when she saw him through the video call.


"Hey darling. How are you?"


"I am great. You?"


"Cool, now that you have called me. I was beginning to wonder if you missed me at all or if I…"


"Shh, I would kiss you now if I could. So stop complaining. I was busy with the deal I told you about earlier on."


"Oh, I am sorry. I compeletely forgot about that. So? Hve you done it? How did it go?"


He shook his head. She looked so eager just to hear the good news.


"I am sorry. I guess I have waited ror a day like this. So what is taking your time?"


"I went to see my lawyer."


"Hmm. Okay. So you heading there now?"


"Yes. I am just right outside the building. I know no one would be expecting me, so I look forward to being a party p.o.o.per."


"Naughty. I like the sound of party p.o.o.per. Crash it like no man can, dear."


"You know me. Anyways, if your grandfather ask of me, just tell him I would be back in about…" he turned his hand and checked his watch. "Two hours."


"Wow, that"s such a long time. Are you sure you would spend that long a time in there?"


"Obviously not. I am just saying so incase of any unpleasant situation. It s better to be safe than sorry, right?"


"Yeah. Anyways, goodluck. I wish you well."


"Thanks dear. Talk to you later when I am done."


"Please, back lots of goodnews for me."


"Definitely. Bye darling."


He ened the call, placed his phone in his trouser pockets and looked up at the big builing of the company he once worked for.


"Dream Star Cooporation.. Wait for me."
