Jiuyue and Cao Mei 'er were four years apart in age, so it was impossible for them to be twins. When Jiuyue was born, Cao Mei' er's parents were very busy with work and had no time to get pregnant.
Therefore, the possibility of Jiuyue being Cao Mei 'er's biological child was not high.
However, it did not mean it was impossible. Moreover, technology was so advanced that even if she did not get pregnant, she could still have a child through other means. Moreover, Cao Mei 'er's parents were healthy.
Jiujiu did not let go of Cao Mei 'er.
However, Ban Yuwan and Gu Yan would not target Jiuyue for no reason. Moreover, from Ban Yuwan's words last time, it could be seen that Ban Yuwan had been holding a grudge against Jiuyue's death.
If there was nothing between them, why would she hold a grudge against a stranger's death?
However, Jiuyue and Cao Mei 'er looked too similar. Compared to the Ban family, Jiuyue looked more like a child of the Cao family.
Jiujiu felt like she was in a fog. Whose child was Jiuyue?
Just as Jiujiu felt like she was in a mystery, she suddenly received a call without a caller ID.
It was a man on the phone. He said to Jiujiu in a low voice, "I have something to do with Jiuyue. If you're interested, you can come to the Bamboo Room to find me."
Obviously, someone had found out that Jiujiu was investigating Jiujiu and had found out her identity.
The man was a pawn in the investigation. The appointment on the phone was most likely not to talk to Jiujiu about Jiuyue, but to set up a trap for Jiujiu.
Jiujiu's investigation had reached a bottleneck, and the Ban family's eldest daughter had not returned yet.
Regardless of whether it was the Ban family or the Gu family, they were both rich and powerful. Even if they hired a private investigator at the highest price, there would always be areas that private investigators would not dare to invade.
She had gone to talk to Gu Yan because she wanted to lure the mastermind out.
Now that the mastermind had taken the initiative to come to her door, she would not let him go.
Jiujiu agreed to the man's proposal. After asking for the address, she drove straight there.
The other party asked to meet Jiujiu at a clubhouse called Golden Branch and Jade Leaf.
The other party booked a bamboo room.
After Jiujiu gave the room number, the waiter led Jiujiu to the private room. When the door was pushed open, there was only one man in the room.
The man was making tea. When he heard the door open, he raised his head and saw Jiujiu. Surprise flashed across his eyes. Then, he pointed at the seat opposite him and said, "You're here. Have a seat."
The man's natural attitude made it seem as if Jiujiu was a long-time friend of his.
Seeing that Jiujiu knew the man, the waiter closed the door and left.
Jiujiu sat opposite the man.
The man glanced at Jiujiu and pushed the brewed tea in front of Jiujiu. He said naturally, "Try it."
He picked up the teacup and took a sip. The tea was clear and had a lingering taste.
Putting down the teacup, Jiujiu looked at the man and said, "Speak. Why are you looking for me?"
The man didn't expect Jiujiu to be so direct. After being stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but smile. He put down the teacup in his hand and asked, "Are you investigating Jiuyue?"
It was a question, but he said it with certainty. It could be seen that before he came looking for her, he already knew that Jiujiu had been investigating Jiuyue.
Jiujiu didn't hide the fact that she was investigating Jiuyue from others. When the man asked, Jiujiu nodded and frankly admitted that she was investigating Jiuyue.
As expected, the man sighed faintly and said, "Your relationship with Jiuyue is very deep, and I can understand how you feel. But girl, listen to my advice. Jiuyue's situation is very complicated, and it's not something you can solve alone."
"If I can't solve it alone, I'll find a few more people."
Jiujiu said calmly. She picked up the teacup and took another sip. Then, she looked at the man and asked, "You are?"
"Feng Long."
Feng Long looked at Jiujiu and sighed. "Miss, you're very brave. But sometimes, the braver you are, the shorter your life will be. When the time comes, don't blame me for not warning you. Jiuyue's situation isn't something you can investigate. Be careful not to lose your life."
"If that's the case, then we have nothing to talk about."
She was here to listen to the news, not to listen to this man's advice.
If she was afraid of death, she wouldn't have investigated this matter from the beginning. Since she had already started the investigation, even if she couldn't escape unscathed, she wouldn't let Jiuyue die in vain.
Jiujiu stood up and picked up her bag to leave.
Feng Long didn't expect Jiujiu to have such a strong temper. After being stunned for a moment, he couldn't help but laugh.
He originally thought that she was just an older sister who was heartbroken because of her younger sister's death and wanted to find the murderer. When he looked at the information, this older sister had only graduated from high school. He thought that she was a small character who could be easily fooled. But now, it seemed that she didn't match the rumors.
Well, if she could find Gu Yan, it showed how powerful she was.
Since persuasion didn't work, he could only change his tactic.
Feng Long stood up and blocked Jiujiu's path. He dug in his pocket and took out a cheque, handing it to Jiujiu.
"I've said everything in my life, but I don't lie. If you continue to investigate, you'll really die."
"Instead of finding out nothing and dying with Jiuyue, why don't you just let go, take the money, leave the capital, and start over?
I think that if Jiuyue was still alive, she wouldn't want you to take the risk for her! "
Jiujiu lowered her head and glanced at it.
A cheque of twenty million yuan was really a big sum.
But the bigger the sum, the more it showed that there was something wrong with Jiuyue's death.
"Since the hard way didn't work, you're using the soft way now?" Jiujiu looked at him coldly. Feng Long's face didn't show any embarrassment. He just looked at Jiujiu and said, "Miss, you're a smart person. You naturally know what to do and what not to do. This matter involves a lot of people. The person behind this isn't someone you can deal with. Instead of getting stuck in a quagmire, why don't you just give up?"
"I'm a person who loves to drink as a forfeit." Jiujiu met Feng Long's gaze and smiled, "Since you dare to kill someone, you should be prepared to be killed. I don't believe that power can cover the sky with one hand. I only believe that where there are people, there will be gangs. Where there are gangs, there will naturally be people who will want to pull him down."
Jiujiu moved closer to Feng Long's ear and whispered, "Help me tell the person behind this that I want his head."
The warm breath landed on Feng Long's cold ears, causing him to shiver. Before Feng Long could recover his wits, Jiujiu had already left.
Looking at the slender but cold figure, Feng Long touched his still warm ear and laughed, "Interesting!"
Jiujiu left the hotel with a cold face. Less than half an hour later, the person in charge of the cafeteria called Jiujiu, "Jiujiu, there's something wrong with your cafeteria window. The school has decided to revoke your contract. Come over and finish the paperwork. Leave in three days."
When Jiujiu swore an oath to Feng Long, she already knew that he would make a move on her sooner or later. But she didn't expect it to be so soon.
