The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man novel Chapter 620

Chapter 620: Chapter 616: Investigating Leng Yuan

Old Nine knew what An Dongyang was like.

He never paid a visit unless he wanted something.

After ushering him into the room, Old Nine was the first to speak. "Young Master An, what brings you here this time?"

An Dongyang didn’t beat around the bush.

"I was going to ask for your help investigating someone, but seeing the state you’re in... I’d better find someone else."

"Who are you trying to investigate?"

"Leng Yuan. He’s a teacher at the commune."

The moment An Dongyang mentioned his name, Old Nine cried out in surprise, "Leng Yuan? Why are you investigating him?"

An Dongyang hadn’t been expecting much, but from Old Nine’s tone, it sounded like he knew the man. He asked, intrigued, "What? You know him?"

Old Nine nodded, a venomous look appearing on his gaunt face. He then began to explain, "I know him. I got into a fight with Lu Yuanbin last time. He was no match for me, but then this guy came out of nowhere and gave me a serious beating."

"Afterward, I had my boys look into him. Turns out he doesn’t have any powerful connections. He’s just a villager from Qingshan Team with the surname Leng. His is the only family with that name there; they came from somewhere else, fleeing a famine. He married and had children in Qingshan Team and has kept his head down all these years."

"Leng Yuan’s parents died young, and he’s cut ties with all his other relatives, so you could say he’s all alone. He got lucky later and married one of the ’educated youth’ sent to the countryside, and that’s how he managed to build a life for himself."

After explaining Leng Yuan’s situation, he looked at An Dongyang curiously.

"So why the sudden interest in investigating him?"

An Dongyang now knew everything he needed to. He had been wary of Leng Yuan and hadn’t dared to make a move, but now that he knew the man had no powerful connections, he instantly knew what to do.

He didn’t mention Gu Jiaojiao to Old Nine, however. He just fobbed him off by saying the two of them had a small conflict.

From An Dongyang’s expression, Old Nine could tell their conflict had turned into a real grudge. A calculating glint appeared in his eyes as he lowered his voice.
