After sorting out the situation, not only did Tang Wan not relax, but her heart felt even heavier.
Even if she had roughly guessed the murderer's true intentions, she painfully realized that she couldn't really do anything to stop the situation from worsening.
As long as Old Master Tang's condition didn't improve, there would be no one at home. Don Juan had already begun to brazenly come to Zhonghai to provoke them, not to mention the mess in Yanjing. People's hearts were not on the same page, and undercurrents were surging.
When he left Tang Wan's house, Yang Cheng wanted to comfort this poor woman, but after thinking about it, there seemed to be nothing else he could say other than to help her. Thinking that Tang Wan wouldn't want him to see her as a weakling, he didn't say much.
When he returned home, it was already dinner time. Yang Cheng found that he had been busy removing the bugs for the whole day, and he couldn't help but laugh at himself.
When it was time for dinner, Yang Cheng saw that Lin Ruoxi didn't return home as usual. Mother Wang seemed to know that Yang Cheng would be puzzled about this, so she smiled and said, "Miss went to Miss Christen's place tonight. She said that she has something to discuss with her, so she won't be home for dinner. You don't have to wait for her."
Yang Cheng originally thought that Lin Ruoxi was working overtime, but when he heard that she went to see Christen, his face immediately darkened …
That crazy woman wouldn't say something she shouldn't, would she? The more Yang Cheng thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, but he couldn't stop Lin Ruoxi from seeing her. He could only eat quietly, hoping that Christen wouldn't be too careless.
Guo Xuehua saw that Yang Cheng had a lot on his mind, and couldn't help but ask in confusion, "Son, why do you look so agitated when Ruoxi went to see Christen? Is that strange?"
Yang Cheng reluctantly waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing, and said, "It's a little surprising. After all, Ruoxi rarely talks to strangers."
"Why chat? Maybe it's work," Guo Xuehua asked back.
Yang Cheng was stunned. He thought about it and realized that maybe his wife was just looking for her for work. Maybe he was really thinking too much.
After dinner, Yang Cheng accompanied his mother and Mother Wang to watch TV for a while. After that, he returned to his room and roughly calculated the time difference. At this time, it should be noon in Europe, so he turned on his computer and logged into his usual video chat tool.
After a while, the red-haired Sauron appeared on the other end of the video. The big guy in a black suit was very spirited, and he saluted Yang Cheng.
"Your Majesty Pluto, why did you suddenly look for me? Do you have any important orders?" Soran asked directly.
Yang Cheng looked at Soran's clothes for a while and said with a smile, "I remember that you hate wearing suits. Why are you suddenly wearing something so formal?"
There was some warmth in Soran's eyes, and there was a trace of a smile on his straight face. "I didn't expect Your Majesty to still remember that I don't wear a suit."
"You're my friend. I don't have many friends, so I naturally remember the habits of my friends," Yang Cheng said matter-of-factly.
"It's because of my daughter, Isabella. She's getting married today," Soran said with a smile.
Yang Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then he laughed and said, "Isabella? That little wild cat? She's getting married. Who's the groom? "
When Soran heard the word 'groom', he was a little unhappy. He snorted and said, "Unfortunately, that damn guy who cheated my heart is Makedon's grandson."
Hearing this, Yang Cheng couldn't hold it in anymore. He laughed wildly and slapped the mattress hard. "You mean Makedon's barrel-shaped precious grandson, Brewster?"
"Yes, but I prefer to call that bad boy Little Wild Boar," Soran said, curling his lips.
Yang Cheng was suddenly filled with emotion. Soran and Makedon were both his close friends, and of course, he was familiar with their families. Compared to themselves, their families were less in awe of him and more intimate, more like his own family.
Isabella and Brewster were considered his juniors. Even though they were about the same age as him, Yang Chen couldn't help but be overjoyed to know that they were going to get married. Furthermore, it was a marriage that would bring them closer together.
"I'll ask Ron to send a token of my appreciation." Yang Cheng pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Soran, you and Makedon are very unkind. Why didn't you inform me in advance about such an important matter? Am I not a relative of the two little guys?"
Soran said emotionally, "Of course not, Your Majesty Pluto. If it weren't for you, my family and I would have been killed by the damn British MI5. It's you who made me who I am today and let me see the happiness of my family. You are our most respected relative. The reason why Makedon and I didn't tell you about this was because we didn't want you to go back to Europe on purpose. You know, if you go back to Europe after more than a year, many forces will appear to be unstable and may bring you trouble. We don't want to disturb your life. "
"You don't have to think about these issues." Yang Cheng smiled bitterly and said, "Next month, I will go to Paris, France to participate in the Fashion Week. Even if you and Makedon are considerate of me, I still have to go back to Europe."
Soran's eyes widened as if he was surprised that Yang Cheng would actually participate in an event like the Fashion Week.
Yang Cheng didn't mention that again and got to the point. He said, "Soran, I'm looking for you today because I want you to help me investigate something. Of course, it's not urgent. You can enjoy your daughter's wedding first."
"Please enlighten me, Your Excellency!" Soran regained his solemnity.
"I need you to help me investigate the sales of the American MLK760 pocket listening device, especially in Hua Xia, and whether it has entered the black market." Yang Cheng said.
Sauron frowned and said, "Your Excellency, I can answer you immediately on this matter."
"Oh?" Yang Cheng frowned.
"It's like this. We tried to order the MLK760 from the FBI in the United States, but it failed in the end because the control of the MLK760 has been completely accepted by the military. If it's Hua Xia, there's no way to get that kind of listening device unless the military signs a contract to buy it, "Soran said solemnly.
Yang Cheng's eyes flashed with some thoughts. He nodded and smiled again and said, "That's all I have to say. You can go to Isabella's wedding now. I wish you all the best."
Soran didn't waste any more time. After saying goodbye to Yang Cheng, he exited the video.
Yang Cheng thought for a while and connected to another video address. After waiting for more than five minutes, there was a response from the other party.
When the video was turned on, on the computer screen, there was a blonde woman wearing a white palatial lace dress. The woman's plump chest and that slender and tight perfect waist formed a distinct picture, making people's blood boil. It was Jane.
Jane seemed to be particularly happy to receive a call from Yang Cheng. Her delicate and flawless face was filled with excitement. Her slightly curly blonde hair was neatly combed behind her, making her look like an elegant royal princess.
Behind Jane was a gorgeous bed. The bright sunlight shone on the bed, reflecting some exquisite craftsmanship around it. Obviously, this was her boudoir.
"Dear Yang Cheng, why did you suddenly call me? If I didn't go back to my room to get my beloved hair clip, I might have missed it." Jane asked with a smile.
Yang Cheng admired her for a while and said, "You'll steal the limelight from the bride, Isabella, if you dress like this."
"You knew?" Jane said in surprise, "I thought Soran and Makedon planned to keep it a secret from you. Did your butler, Ron, tell you?"
"I just found out, but that's not the point. I'm looking for you because I need your help with something else," Yang Cheng said.
Jane pouted. "I knew you would only look for me if you needed something. How boring … Alright, tell me. I'll be my bridesmaid after listening to you."
Yang Cheng smiled helplessly. Then, he told her about Old Master Tang's condition and Andre's death …
"I don't think anyone in this world can claim to be more authoritative than you when it comes to the study of the brain and mental illness. After all, you were the one who cured my madness … That's why I thought that treating Old Master Tang might be the best choice. Of course, I know you're very busy. You have to teach many students and attend various scientific conferences, so I don't need you to come immediately. If you're not willing to be the doctor, you can send a student who you think is capable. I don't mind, "Yang Cheng said.
Jane looked a little regretful. "Andre is actually dead … He was a good scholar. Although he was a bit greedy, he was indeed a person with real talent. Don't worry, Yang Cheng. I'll be there personally. You're the one who gave me the opportunity to visit you in Hua Xia. How could I reject it? "
Yang Cheng smiled awkwardly. "I'm talking about serious business."
"I'm not talking about anything else." Jane smiled and winked. "After I attend Isabella's wedding, I'll immediately buy a plane ticket to Hua Xia. You have to pick me up then."
"It's not a problem to pick you up. However, after what happened to Andre, your safety must be taken care of. I don't want you to come to help my friend and get hurt." Yang Cheng said seriously.
"You're here, aren't you? You'll definitely protect me, just like a few years ago when we first met. You protected me and my mother, didn't you?" Jane seemed to have recalled something and said with nostalgia.
Yang Cheng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he didn't. He smiled and said, "I can't be by your side all the time."
Jane giggled. "You don't have to worry. I have my own ways to protect myself. Don't you trust me? I'm one of the smartest women in the world."
"That's true." Yang Cheng nodded in agreement and said, "You should also have an important relationship with Johns Hopkins in the United States. You can tell them not to make a big deal out of Andre's death. That way, they won't have to file a lawsuit. I'll definitely give them an explanation in the end."
Jane responded, "I understand. Don't worry. Johns Hopkins has a lot of important cooperation with me. They won't dare to disobey me."
Hearing Jane's words, Yang Cheng felt that there was no need to pay attention to it. In fact, he just mentioned it in passing. He didn't want to get involved in the specific outcome.
In Yang Cheng's view, helping Tang Wan was just a trivial matter. Even in the eyes of outsiders, this series of operations would be an extremely difficult task.
After saying goodbye to Jane, Yang Cheng turned off the computer. Feeling that the whole dark room had quieted down, Yang Cheng suddenly felt a little bored. Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind. Yang Cheng slapped his forehead. He was really getting more and more stupid. Why did he have to stay in the room so pitifully? After all, his two confidantes were already living next door! How hard was it to climb over a wall?
Thinking of this, the corners of Yang Cheng's mouth curled up into an evil smile. He turned his head and looked at the balcony …
