Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1140: Chapter 1140: Inquiry into the Immortal and the Yellow Springs (Part 4)

Xing Qiao bit his lip tightly, preventing his tears from falling.

He really missed his uncle...

Xing Qiao wiped his eyes, forcing the tears back. Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Chuzheng’s wrist and paused, then turned his gaze towards it, staring for a few seconds, and frowned slightly strangely: ”That bracelet of yours...”

”Hmm?”

”I feel like I’ve seen it before.”

Chuzheng raised her hand to examine the bracelet: ”It’s produced by your group. Seeing it would be normal.”

”No... it’s not.” Xing Qiao shook his head. This bracelet didn’t match any of those produced by the group. ”This bracelet is different... it... it...”

Xing Qiao tried hard to recall something, but perhaps his memory was too fuzzy, he couldn’t remember it for the moment.

”My dad, my dad has one.” Xing Qiao suddenly said, ”I saw it in a photo of my dad, he was wearing this bracelet on his hand.” He would often look at photos of his dad, and he had seen this bracelet many times, he definitely wouldn’t mistake it.

”Your dad?”

Chuzheng rotated the bracelet: ”What’s your dad’s name?”

”Xing Chen.”

Chuzheng: ”...” No impression.

Chuzheng took out the robot, tapped it: ”Check the employer from November last year.”

Under Xing Qiao’s watchful gaze, the robot slowly stretched its arms and legs, all the while complaining in a cute voice, ”Master, do you have no compassion, calling me just for work... Stop tapping, stop tapping, if you break me you’ll lose your little sweetheart.”

”...”

”There were two employers in November, master, which one do you want to see?”

”Show both.”

The robot projected both sets of information simultaneously. Chuzheng glanced at them and asked the somewhat dazed Xing Qiao beside her, ”Which one is your dad?”

Xing Qiao snapped back to reality, looked at the projection, and shook his head: ”Neither.”

Chuzheng asked again: ”Do you know either of these two people?”

Xing Qiao looked for a while, but still shook his head: ”I don’t know them.”

”Are you sure this bracelet is your dad’s?”

Xing Qiao asked Chuzheng to wait for a moment, he left the room and quickly returned with an album, flipping rapidly to the back.

He pointed at a photo: ”Look.”

The photo was a group photo, and the man Xing Qiao pointed out had handsome features with gentle eyes, simply a larger version of Xing Qiao.

Definitely his biological son.

She had seen this person before...

However, he wasn’t the employer but had been seen beside that employer.

No wonder she found Xing Qiao somewhat familiar.

The bracelet was sent as an additional reward in the name of that employer.

Chuzheng’s gaze fell on the man’s wrist, and the bracelet there was indeed identical to the one on her wrist.

Xing Qiao flipped a few more pages, and the man’s wrist had this bracelet in all of them.

The photos were arranged chronologically, and as he flipped further, the bracelet disappeared, and the photo’s timestamp coincided with when she received the bracelet.

Chuzheng asked the robot to check all the bracelets produced by the Fanxing Company, and after comparing them one by one, found none matched hers.

Coincidence? Conspiracy?

Is the Bastard controlling her through this thing?

-

Just when Chuzheng and Xing Qiao were staring at each other, Hu Shuo came up personally, slightly relieved to see Chuzheng here.

”Miss Chuzheng.”

”What’s happened?”

”Caught someone, nothing major.” Hu Shuo’s face was impassive: ”I’m here to check on sir.” He had made arrangements inside and out today, thinking that with such a good opportunity, someone would definitely act, and sure enough, they caught a rat.

As the chief steward, Hu Shuo might have seemed relaxed, but he very honestly inspected the surroundings.

If he weren’t stretched too thin, he would very much like to station himself here with his sir.

”Mr. Hu.”

Hu Shuo paused when Chuzheng called him as he was leaving.

”Miss Chuzheng, is there anything else?”

Chuzheng tapped the game chamber lightly: ”Can someone still enter this game now?”

”It is possible...” Hu Shuo closed the door: ”The game is currently in a self-enclosed state, but a backdoor was left when it was designed, so an outsider could enter, but they could very well get lost inside and be stuck just like sir.”

Translated, it means that the backdoor can only let people in, not out.

”What if someone could freely enter and exit?”

”Impossible.” Hu Shuo directly denied, probably thinking his reaction was too strong, he eased up: ”Miss Chuzheng, with these professional matters, I can’t explain them clearly to you in a short time. All I can say is, with Fanxing’s current situation, it’s absolutely impossible to venture freely in and out, otherwise sir wouldn’t have been comatose this long.”

Chuzheng nodded thoughtfully, indicating Hu Shuo could leave.

Hu Shuo: ”...”

Why did he feel like he was a servant to be summoned and dismissed at will?

And what did Miss Chuzheng bring Young Master Xing Qiao here for?

He didn’t dare ask...

-

Chuzheng took Xing Qiao downstairs, the banquet wasn’t over yet, and the capture of a person didn’t seem to affect the event.

”Miss Chuzheng, you’re leaving?” Hu Shuo appeared from somewhere.

”Yes.”

”But... but... you haven’t even completed eight hours of work.”

”I’m not here to work.” This early, what work! I’ll come back in the evening! Chuzheng nudged Xing Qiao forward: ”I’m here to find someone, I’ll take him with me first.”

”Hey?” Hu Shuo was puzzled: ”Young Master Xing Qiao...?”

Chuzheng completely ignored Hu Shuo and left with Xing Qiao just like that.

Hu Shuo: ”...”

Young Master Xing Qiao is the main character today!!!

What does it mean when you take away the main character!!

-

Chuzheng and Xing Qiao were walking towards the outside of the estate. Just after they left, they saw Second Miss Xing leaving in a hurry.

The inhabitant wasn’t by her side.

Chuzheng gave a detached glance, called a car outside, and headed towards Wenxian Road.

Xing Qiao sat like a sculpture, his pale little face taut, seemingly unconcerned about where Chuzheng was taking him.

When they passed a road, they saw a car overturned in the other lane, and the car was familiar—it was Second Miss Xing’s, which had left before them.

Now, patrol robots and traffic police robots had arrived, maintaining the scene.

”That’s my second aunt...”

”It’s none of our business.”

”She’s my second aunt.” Xing Qiao frowned, solemnly stating: ”Even though I don’t like her, I can’t deny the blood relation.”

The car in front hadn’t moved, the car stopped here, and Xing Qiao directly opened the door and got out, crossing over to the scene of the incident.

Chuzheng: ”...”

When Chuzheng arrived, Xing Qiao had already finished conversing with the arriving officer. The small person was calm and confident; if not for his height, nobody would think he’s just a child.

”The accident is under investigation, this lady is unharmed, just a bit shaken.”

Second Miss Xing was sitting in the open car, applying ice to her forehead. From the corner of her eye, she spotted Chuzheng and Xing Qiao, her expression turning unsightly.

How did these two end up together?
