The next day in the afternoon, Er Lei entered Wang Zhong Ding's office.

"Chief Wang, upon investigation we have found the general information of this man."

Er Lei was also Wang Zhong Ding's capable assistant, compared to Feng Jun he keeps a more low-profile and rarely meddled in the company's internal affairs. Some personal matters and miscellaneous tasks that weren't suitable to make public, Wang Zhong Ding liked to hand over to him.

"This man called Han Dong, he......"

"Wait a minute." Wang Zhong Ding suddenly interrupted, "What's his name?"

Er Lei paused on the line and said once again: "Han-Dong!"

"Dong (東- east) in Dongxi (東西 -east and west) or Dong (冬 - winter) in Dongtian (冬天 - winter season)?"

(T/N: Dong (東- east) and Dong (冬 - winter) both have the same pronunciation)

"Dong (東 - east) in Dongxi (東西 - east and west)."

Wang Zhong Ding was indescribably unhappy, calling him something else was not good? Why did he just have to be called this name!

"He's 27 years old this year and an ordinary migrant worker living in Beijing, he has acted as an extra for 5 years, up until now he still doesn't have a fixed residence." After he finished speaking Er Lei secretly glanced at Wang Zhong Ding, knowing that he disliked recruiting he still couldn't help but continue to say, "Claims to be the number one immortal in the imperial capital, good at calculating fortunes, feng shui, path of promotion (career), especially marriage......"

(T/N: #1 immortal in imperial capital meaning his fortune telling is #1 accurate because in ancient time being called the #1 immortal in the imperial capital mean you're well-known + your fortune telling is very accurate like immortal)

"Okay okay." Wang Zhong Ding's face darkened as expected, "Get to the point!"

Er Lei had to skip this section, "As a child he was abandoned by his parents and was placed in the care of his uncle, later because there was a family in the neighboring village who had 3 daughters and no son, he was then adopted by that family which is also his current family."

"Why would he be abandoned by his parents?" Wang Zhong Ding asked.

"It is said that he was born with six fingers, that region is rather superstitious, that's why......"

Wang Zhong Ding's complexion changed again, "He was also abandoned because he had six fingers?"

Also? Er Lei couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, who else was abandoned because of having six fingers? Was it possible that......not right ah! The old father was still healthy!

(T/N: 老爺子 (old father) - used to call one own or other people elderly father)

The doubt in Wang Zhong Ding's eyes disappeared in a flash and he very quickly returned to the topic.

"Does his adoptive parents, relatives, or friends have any relation with me?"

Er Lei said with certainty: "As far as I know, his adoptive parents and relatives live in a remote mountainous area of the Inner Mongolia, also, his friends and you aren't in the same social circle, there is completely zero contact."

Since it is a stranger that eight poles couldn't hit, how did I turn into an imaginary enemy? Wang Zhong Ding remained puzzled after pondering over it a hundred times.

(T/N: 八竿子打不著的事 (eight poles couldn't hit)= Describe the relationship between the two alienated or unrelated/two things have nothing to do with each other......)
