Chapter 590: Chapter 590

Yang Fan waved his hand and said, "What concerns me isn’t about that deal. How you trade the house is your own business; there’s no need to be so clear with me. What I want to know right now is what exactly happened to that house? Last night, Yun Shan told me a bit, but I only saw the result, not the reason."

"That house, I know it has changed owners several times over," said Duan Linlin with a shake of her head, "As for other matters, I’m not aware. If Yun Shan has told you in sufficient detail, then whatever she knows is what I know as well."

Yang Fan’s brow furrowed slightly, "I now suspect that someone might have died in that house."

"This is just my speculation. Without more information from you, I can’t confirm my hypothesis. Just listen to it for now, and whether you take it as a basis for judgment or not is up to you."

"Although I can’t be certain, there’s about a seventy percent chance. Wandering, ownerless entities do not typically exhibit such a strong presence. The remaining thirty percent chance is that a previous owner of the house could have nurtured something."

Old Zhou’s expression gradually became serious, "Fanzi, is this something you can handle?"

"At the moment, I can’t guarantee anything. If Mr. Fan gets involved, there likely won’t be any problems," Yang Fan said. "Old Zhou, I suggest you two start by investigating the house’s previous owners. Check if any of them have undergone any family misfortune or if there’s a particular owner with some unusual beliefs."

"Although this matter is somewhat complex, the more we understand, the sooner and more thoroughly we can resolve this. I think the trouble is necessary."

Old Zhou turned to Duan Linlin, seeking her opinion with his gaze.

Duan Linlin nodded her head, "I’ll start looking into it today to see if I can dig up any useful information. When I originally went for the house because it was cheap, I didn’t inquire much into other matters. It turns out there really isn’t such a thing as a free lunch in this world."

She gave a bitter smile and said, "Ever since I got that house, I haven’t made a penny, but instead, I’ve nearly thrown in the cost of a whole another house. It’s the most unprofitable and foolish business I’ve done."

Regret is the cheapest on any occasion.

Yang Fan didn’t empathize with Duan Linlin’s regret, nor did he say much, but instead said, "You guys start the search, and let me know if there’s any news. Even if there isn’t, it’s fine; I’ll try going in tonight to see if I can handle it."

"Old Zhou, what are your plans next?"

After thinking for a moment, Old Zhou said, "I’ll join Lin’er in investigating this."

In fact, what Yang Fan really wanted to ask was whether he would go to Zhu Shanshan’s place.

Hearing Old Zhou’s response, Yang Fan tactfully did not go further with the reminder.

With a new lover, the ex-wife had been thoroughly forgotten.

Old Zhou probably didn’t even recall why they were here in the first place, or what they were doing yesterday.

Although Yang Fan was staying in the same place as Old Zhou, he was actually paying close attention to Zhu Shanshan’s situation. If not for the message from Xiang Xue Ting, Yang Fan would definitely have gone back last night.

"That’s settled then. I’ll be leaving now, and we’ll be in touch later tonight," Yang Fan said as he pressed on his stomach and stood up.

Since last night until now, it wasn’t so much the drink, but rather the tea that he couldn’t stop drinking, making his stomach feel a bit off.

"Fanzi, I’ll walk out with you," said Gao Yunshan immediately, standing up, "I won’t be in their way here anymore."

After seeing Yang Fan and Gao Yunshan out the door, Old Zhou and Duan Linlin returned inside.

As the two of them walked out of the complex, Yang Fan called Zhu Shan to check on the situation.

Zhu Shan told him that she had already returned to work normally, and Fan Sisi hadn’t left yet, still accompanying her.

"Have you noticed any suspicious people around?" Yang Fan asked.

"Indeed, there is." Zhu Shanshan said.

Upon hearing this, Yang Fan’s heart suddenly leapt, "How could there be?"

Last night he had asked Zhu Shanshan several times about the situation on her end, and nothing had happened.

Originally, Bi Gang and his little henchmen had been rounded up all at once, so it was improbable for them to still be worrying about Zhu Shanshan at this point, even the most brazen person wouldn’t dare to be this audacious, right?

This was no longer a simple case of violating laws and regulations, but a complete disregard for the police station.

The police were busy catching their people, and here they were, still thinking about harming others?

How vicious must someone be to do such a thing?

Zhu Shanshan laughed, "But it wasn’t Bi Gang’s people, it was the police. They came in the morning and even greeted me. They said I am one of the witnesses in the Bi Gang case and that they must provide protection."

Yang Fan felt a great relief wash over him, "You scared me nearly to death with the way you gasped between your words."

"I was already considering finding a place to hide you away quickly. If it really had been Bi Gang’s people, then that guy’s power and arrogance would be too terrifying. We would definitely not be able to fight, we could only hide."

"It’s alright, it’s alright. How could he possibly be that exaggerated? I’m very safe here now, you don’t need to worry about me. Are you coming over later? I showered early, all fresh and ready to reward my great hero," Zhu Shanshan said softly with a laugh.

Yang Fan had planned to go over to check on her, but hearing that police officers were guarding her place, he felt reassured, "Since you’ve got police protection over there now, I won’t come over. If I’m free in the afternoon, I’ll come then."

"But you can schedule your ’getting all fresh and clean’ a bit earlier."

"Of course." Zhu Shanshan giggled, "Not only fresh and clean but also fragrance-fresh. I’ll be waiting for you."

"Okay."

Since Gao Yunshan was nearby, Yang Fan didn’t blatantly say much more.

Letting her figure out Zhu Shanshan’s identity would not be a good thing.

Better to keep a secret if it can be kept.

Given her relationship with Duan Linlin, she would probably share these things with Duan Linlin, which would inevitably end up reaching Old Zhou’s ears. Best to keep things under wraps as long as possible, even though Old Zhou seems very open, surely there would be some discomfort in his heart.

After hanging up the phone, Yang Fan said to Gao Yunshan, "Aren’t you worried about your house? Let’s go check on it first."

Gao Yunshan was immediately overjoyed, "Sure, let’s go quickly, heehee."

Yang Fan chuckled helplessly; he was now seriously suspecting this woman had made up an excuse.

What she truly cared about was definitely not that there was something wrong with the house, but that she wanted him to come over to her place.

Gao Yunshan’s home was not far from Imperial Court No. 8, located on the same street.

She lived in a high-rise within a high-end residential area.

They walked through the lush greenery of the community, and Gao Yunshan led Yang Fan up the building.

This woman lived in a large flat, and the moment the door was opened, Yang Fan was shocked.
