One by one, days flew past Bo. The longer he went without a plan, the more panicked he was over the upcoming tragedy. In the end, he just gave up on planning and went with the most ham-fisted method possible: investigate every single one of Ziyi’s suitors. Anyone who had ever felt anything for her must go through a thorough background check. With such a big net cast, there’s no way that rotten fish would be missed!
It’s such a pity, aggravatingly so, that Zuo Cheng died not long after Sean left. Back then, Bo drifted around all day long in a dazed state. Once he confirmed his sister was safe and the culprit was arrested, he paid no heed to everything that happened after, like the culprit’s identity. He didn’t even bother remembering what that crazy man’s name was. All he remembered was his family procuring evidence of the culprit’s insanity and the man being sent to a mental asylum. Not long after, the man committed suicide.
He didn’t think too much about it but now that he thought back to it, it was strange. How could the culprit have escaped punishment with just a piece of paper stating he was mentally ill after having killed off the Zuo family’s heir? With how powerful the Zuo family was, it’s improbable. Did the man really commit suicide? He can’t say for sure. However, murderers must pay one way or another. The Zuo family had the right and strength to avenge their family member. He can’t judge them for that. Perhaps the man did not fully comprehend what he was doing but there was no way he’d lost all control over himself. He drove off with the aim to kill someone. His death wasn’t wrongful no matter what.
If only he remembered that crazy man’s name. He’d only need to track the guy down, keep an eye on the man and nip the danger in the bud. Now, he had to search for any signs of the man amidst a sea of humans. Thankfully while Ziyi had a lot of suitors, they always fit a certain criteria. Soon, he will find that unstable man!
Having settled on a plan, Bo picked up his phone and dialled in a number. After three rings, a man’s voice warmly answered, “Bo? You’ve not called me for a long time. Do you need something?”
Nostalgia rose in Bo. It’s been so long since he’d heard this man’s voice.
“How’ve you been doing, Zan Jin-ge?” Bo replied with a smile.
“It’s the same old thing with me. Go to work and earn money for my eventual retirement.” Zu Zan Jin’s voice was as soothing as the spring showers.
“Stop pulling my leg, Zan Jin-ge. You’re thinking of retirement now?” Bo chuckled.
Zu Zan Jin chuckled too. “You know my secret,” he sighed. “Someone like me is destined to never have a family. I’ll die alone. Of course I must prepare earlier. I wouldn’t want to be a penniless and homeless old man.”
Bo was reminded of what happened in his last life and heaved a heavy sigh internally.
Zu Zan Jin was an orphan. He was only able to afford university with financial assistance from the Wang Group. He’s smart. He’d always been the best of his peers. After graduation, he joined the Wang Group. With his capabilities, he could be the executive manager of a department. However, he chose to be Haikuan’s secretary. He’d been working with Haikuan for years and was now Haikuan’s right-hand man in everything. When the Wang family fell into troubled times, he didn’t abandon them. He did everything and pulled all the strings he could to help the company, yet he wasn’t able to save the Wang Group. After the family went bankrupt, he would always think up of ways to help Haikuan rise again. To raise the money needed, he accepted the invitation of the company that’d been eyeing him up forever. He fervently worked and worked and was known as the most handsome bachelor in the industry who’s the least marriageable due to his frugal nature. He wouldn’t attend parties. He didn’t smoke. He didn’t drink. He wouldn’t go out and play with the other men. He was even stingy when it came to how much he spent on food and drink. Every cent possibly saved would be saved. He was infamous for someone who only cared for money. Human relations were nothing to him. As long as there was money to be earned and it wasn’t illegal, he would do it no matter how tiring it’d be. He even secretly sold off the apartment and car he’d bought after years of savings. When he went to Haikuan with the money, Haikuan rejected the money. They got into such a big argument that they nearly fought. Bo was hiding around the corner then. It was the first time he’d seen the eyes of this gentle and kind man go red in rage. That was the last time Bo ever saw him.
