Chapter 1436: Chapter 1437: Engagement (13th update, still asking for rewards)
Wei Wuyue took a deep breath and said, "To be honest, I’m just like you, I was also scared by Jiang Shu earlier. Moreover, what’s even more outrageous is that Jiang Shu himself was shocked because even he doesn’t have enough clearance."
"This is absurd, too ridiculous!" Wei Wuyue furrowed his brows deeply.
Wei Wuyue patted Wei Songbo on the shoulder, "How about we let the old man step in?"
"What do you need me to step in for?"
At this moment, the voice of Old Grandpa Wei came from behind the two brothers. The Wei brothers were startled and hurriedly explained the earlier situation to Old Grandpa Wei. After listening, Old Grandpa Wei didn’t get angry but instead laughed, "Hahaha! It seems this Li Tian fellow isn’t ordinary at all. Since that’s the case, Songbo, go to my study and bring my special cellphone, I’ll directly ask Old Hu."
Soon, Old Grandpa Wei dialed the private number of the current head of the Tianshu Office: "Hey, Old Hu, it’s Wei Tong... Hahaha, I’m surprised you still recognize my voice... Yes, I need to ask you a small favor... Yes, I need you to check on someone, yes, his name is Li Tian, he’s Old Chen’s disciple grandchild... Who else would it be, my old class leader, Chen Weiguo!... Yes! Check it for me immediately!"
After hanging up the phone, to be honest, Old Grandpa Wei felt a bit uneasy because he really shouldn’t be doing this, but he had to because he also wanted to know, what exactly is your past like. Soon, Old Grandpa Wei’s private cellphone rang: "Hello, Old Hu, did you find anything?... What!?"
Old Grandpa Wei’s face immediately changed, which caused the two brothers of the Wei family, who had been watching closely, to hold their breath, because they had never seen their father show such an expression.
"This... this is too damn ridiculous!" Old Grandpa Wei initially looked solemn, then suddenly burst into loud laughter, "I never thought, really didn’t think, that there’s actually someone in this world even I, Wei Tong, can’t investigate. Old Hu, tell me honestly, can you investigate this young man?"
While Old Grandpa Wei was talking to Old Hu, Wei Songbo and Wei Wuyue were like rookies, staring at each other wide-eyed on the side. Although Old Grandpa Wei is retired, he was once a general of the country, yet there’s someone he can’t investigate, just what kind of incredible background does this Li Tian have?
Very soon, Old Grandpa Wei closed the cellphone. At this moment, he seemed especially relaxed, as if he had suddenly gotten 10 years younger, "Alright, you two kids stop guessing, Old Hu is just like me, his clearance isn’t enough either. Li Tian, this kid, is definitely not ordinary. However, Old Hu managed to gather some information, Li Tian’s master, that Hou Tu kid, died in the line of duty, so the country has been paying attention to Li Tian’s growth over the years. Although we don’t know where he has been these years or what he’s done, at least this kid is under the protection of the state and has dealings with that mysterious organization, otherwise, we couldn’t have failed to find his file."
After hearing all this, the Wei brothers finally felt relieved. Anyone able to engage with that mysterious organization is no ordinary person and is recognized and protected by the country.
However, when the three entered the dining room, Old Grandpa Wei directly shouted a curse, "Damn it! Li Tian, you brat, you even drank the wine I’ve stored for fifteen years!"
Wei Songbo immediately added, "Dad, watch your seniority! You’re his grandfather!"
After the banquet ended, Old Grandpa Wei originally wanted to keep you, but you politely declined. People only saw you stepping out of the door, and then you were nowhere to be found.
"Darling, looks like I’m not the only one who misjudged this time," Wei Qingshan said casually from the side.
Wei Yingyue’s mother observed the situation and whispered something to her husband Wei Songbo, who just shook his head without saying much.
"That Li Tian kid, he’s so unreliable, how could he leave just like that, it will be hard to find him to drink in the future." Wei Wuyue burped and leaned drunkenly against the wall, completely disoriented.
Wei Songbo looked at the old man, hesitating to speak. freewēbnoveℓ.com
Old Grandpa Wei gave Wei Songbo a sidelong glance and laughed out loud, "This kid is smart, he never intended to be my grandson-in-law from the beginning!"
Upon hearing this, Wei Qingshan couldn’t help but turn to look at Wei Yingyue who was sitting quietly, then said, "Yuhang City isn’t that big, with our family’s connections, it’s not hard to find one person, isn’t it just checking with the police system."
Just as Wei Wuyue was about to step forward to kick his disappointing son, his private cellphone in his pocket rang, the ringtone was a military song, and the invigorating music sobered him up somewhat.
Wei Wuyue pressed a button and put the phone to his ear.
At first, he was still wobbling, leaning against the wall, but as soon as he heard the voice on the other end, he straightened up and shouted, "Reporting to the commander, I am Wei Wuyue!... Yes, Commander!"
Wei Wuyue quickly ran to Wei Tong’s side and placed the phone in front of Old Grandpa Wei, whispering, "Dad, it’s Commander Zhang!"
Old Grandpa Wei’s eyebrows shot up as soon as he heard, taking the phone, he chuckled, "I say old buddy, calling me so late can’t be just for a game of chess, can it?"
Because the surroundings were very quiet, and Wei Wuyue’s phone had a good speakerphone function, everyone present could hear the voice on the phone, which was filled with authority, "Brother Wei, did you just call Old Hu at the Tianshu Office?"
"Why, did such a little thing disturb you too?"
"Oh my dear brother! Little thing, if it were a little thing, I wouldn’t be calling to bother you!"
Old Grandpa Wei’s face darkened at these words and asked, "What’s going on?"
"You know that all files in the Tianshu Office are encrypted, each access is documented in detail, and these records usually become part of the registry, without much curiosity from anyone. But today, the file Old Hu accessed is a top-secret red-letter file! Given his status, he doesn’t even have the qualification to access, let alone query it!"
As soon as this was said, everyone present was stunned, no one expected Li Tian’s identity to be so special, because even the classified files of national leaders can be accessed with Wei Tong’s clearance.
"What’s this all about!" Old Grandpa Wei was a bit troubled too.
"Old Wei, first tell me, why do you want to look into this person?"
Old Grandpa Wei exchanged glances with his two sons beside him and softly said, "He’s my old class leader’s disciple grandchild..."
After hearing Old Grandpa Wei explain the situation, the voice on the phone paused for a moment, then spoke to Old Grandpa Wei, "Old Wei, let me put it this way, the person you’re trying to look into isn’t within our control, you should understand what I mean. Just now, the old commander specially called me to convey that under no circumstances should you come into direct conflict with him. But, since you have past ties with him, that’s a different matter. Alright, I won’t say much more, I’ll report your situation to the superiors."
The previously quiet voice suddenly resumed, "Oh, by the way! Let me tell you, consider this a whisper, don’t let it out. His real name shouldn’t be Li Tian, as to what it precisely is, currently, no one seems to know."
