Eternal Love: The Billionaire's Relentless Pursuit-Chapter 651 - 644: Long Time No See

Leng Yichen clutched the photo in his hand. He wasn’t very familiar with Yao Zhiqing; the number of times they’d met could be counted on his fingers. If it weren’t for Bai Yiran, he wouldn’t even know of Yao Zhiqing’s existence.

However, because of Bai Yiran, Leng Yichen had given Yao Zhiqing’s company quite a bit of business and took special care of it.

Bai Yiran lowered her eyes, "That was before I returned to the country. It was on that day that I met Teacher Yao. She said she was preparing to start a company and asked if I was interested. Later, I returned to the country, and coincidentally, Wu Chengzu and I were on the same flight. He was even sitting next to me; that’s how I met Wu Chengzu on the plane." 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

After listening to Bai Yiran’s words, Leng Yichen felt a chill in his heart and tightly grasped Bai Yiran’s small hand.

Bai Yiran smiled slightly, "Actually, after the pillow fight and before returning to the country, I saw Teacher Yao every day. She was always alone, and only her husband appeared twice during that period; after that, he didn’t show up again." Bai Yiran took another sip of water, "So now, I’m somewhat uncertain about the relationship between Teacher Yao and Wu Chengzu. But one thing is clear: they knew each other since their time in E Country. After returning, Wu Chengzu’s company was established beneath Teacher Yao’s office. I don’t know if that’s another coincidence, but when I met Wu Chengzu again in Teacher Yao’s office, Teacher Yao didn’t reveal their prior acquaintance and pretended to have just met him."

Leng Yichen put the photo away, "After we get back, I will give the photo to Gao Sheng and have him investigate this matter. You shouldn’t get involved."

Bai Yiran nodded, her mood somber, "I still remember the last call Shishi made to me before her accident. She told me to be careful but didn’t have the time to tell me what to be careful about. I wonder if it was related to this matter."

Wu Chengzu knew that Cheng Shishi discovered the connection between him and Yao Zhiqing, and to protect Yao Zhiqing from being exposed, he killed Cheng Shishi.

The more Bai Yiran thought about it, the more upset she became, "She was my teacher, a teacher I always respected..."

Nothing is more hurtful than being betrayed by someone you trust the most. If Yao Zhiqing truly had a relationship with Wu Chengzu, it would mean Cheng Shishi’s death is directly related to her!

Leng Yichen held Bai Yiran tightly, his hand gently rubbing her shoulder. At this moment, he could offer no comfort. He only hoped the plane would land quickly, allowing him to further investigate Yao Zhiqing’s true identity.

However, Leng Yichen felt a tremendous fear now. Bai Yiran had worked for Yao Zhiqing for so long; Yao Zhiqing was both her teacher and employer. If she wanted to harm Bai Yiran, it would be a simple task.

In other words, Yao Zhiqing and Wu Chengzu may have set their sights on Bai Yiran long ago, back in E Country. It was just that their intentions were not clear at the time.

After getting off the plane, Leng Yichen had Wang Hai take Sister Liu and the children home. Bai Yiran insisted on following Leng Yichen, eventually leaving him no choice but to comply.

This was Bai Yiran’s third encounter with Gao Sheng; the first was in a café alley, the second in a hospital, and the third here in this rundown house.

Not having seen him for several years, Gao Sheng appeared much older. He clearly didn’t expect to see Bai Yiran and squinted with a smile, "Long time no see, Yiran girl."

Gao Sheng’s tone was very affectionate, as if he were a senior family member to Bai Yiran.
