Chapter 400: Chapter 399: Xia Zhiyun’s Determination

After Xia Zhengguang went back to his room to rest, Xia Zhiyun stood in front of Xia Zhengguang’s door, his eyes narrowed slightly.

It wasn’t that he hadn’t heard what Xia Zhengguang had said. On the contrary, he had heard every word with perfect clarity.

And Xia Zhiyun remembered what Xia Zhengguang had just said: the reason Situ Wenze was targeting the Xia family was because they had offended someone from the Situ family.

But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t recall when he might have offended someone from the Situ Family.

Xia Zhiyun’s lips pressed into a thin line as he thought, but even after racking his brain, he couldn’t remember ever clashing with anyone from the Situ Family.

Unable to figure it out on his own, Xia Zhiyun decided to call his former assistant.

That’s right, former.

Without the Xia family company, Xia Zhiyun was, at best, a down-on-his-luck young master with a bit of money left. He didn’t have to go to work, so naturally, he no longer needed an assistant.

The person on the other end answered quickly, but after listening for just a moment, Xia Zhiyun’s expression darkened.

He was no longer the president of the Xia family company, but the assistant was still the president’s assistant. Now, that person had seamlessly become the assistant to the new president, Situ Wenze.

Some might think the assistant was disloyal, but for that assistant, the position of President’s Assistant at the Xia family company was just a job to support their family.

Without that job, his next one might not come with such a high salary, not to mention the monthly bonuses.

From a moral standpoint, what the assistant did was a low blow. But realistically, if Xia Zhiyun were in the assistant’s shoes, he felt he probably would have made the same choice.

But since he was the president who had been replaced, he felt deeply uncomfortable no matter how he tried to rationalize it.

The assistant was no longer an option, so Xia Zhiyun pinned his hopes on a private investigator.

However, he didn’t have much money on hand, so the investigator he hired wasn’t a particularly famous one.

But he had no other options left; his only hope was that this investigator would be reliable.

As long as he could find out why the Situ Family was suddenly targeting them, Xia Zhiyun would know how to tailor a solution to the problem.

No matter what, as long as he could get the Situ Family to stop targeting them, he would accept any demand they made.

At this thought, Xia Zhiyun’s resolve to hire a private investigator hardened.

He took out his phone, found a number, and dialed.

Yun Zijin had been keeping Lu Yunque company at work, and by 6 p.m., he was still busy in a video conference.

Seeing that Lu Yunque showed no signs of ending the meeting, Yun Zijin found a small blackboard, wrote the two words "Let’s eat" on it, and held it up in front of him.

Lu Yunque glanced up casually and saw the words Yun Zijin was holding up on the little blackboard.

He then raised his wrist to check the time. The minute hand was already approaching the "2".

It was past Yun Zijin’s dinner time. Lu Yunque quickly said a few words to the others in the video conference and ended the meeting.

"Sorry, I lost track of time during the meeting. Do you want to go out to eat, or should we eat here?"

Lu Yunque was usually too lazy to go out, so he always had Mo Bin order food for him.

However, the food he ordered was on a completely different level from the takeout ordinary people would get.

"It’s already this late. Let’s just have it delivered."

"We probably wouldn’t get a table even if we went to a restaurant now."

"Besides, it’s not like we haven’t eaten here before."

"Okay, I’ll have Mo Bin order something."
