Chapter 1533: Chapter 1526: Epilogue (17)

Secretary Wang, being experienced, naturally carried out the orders as instructed. Qin Zhiyou also said, "I’m a bit puzzled. Who was the one that leaked the news about Xixi’s disappearance?"

Regarding Lu Weixi’s disappearance, within the entirety of Hanhai, besides Qin Zhiyou himself, only Secretary Wang was aware of it.

Not a word was mentioned by the President’s secretary’s office, and the senior managers were also kept in the dark. Those who came to Hanhai Headquarters to work on the case were all in plain clothes. The second and third branches of the family had not spread the news either. Of course, later on, due to the police following leads to find Qin Zhizha and Cai Yiren, at most, the whole matter was only known within the Qin family.

So, who exactly was the one that leaked the news? If we can trace the source, we might roughly know who’s behind this, stirring the pot, right?

He did not believe it was the third branch; Qin Zhizha and Cai Yiren were still involved. Spreading such news would be akin to admitting their own darling son and daughter-in-law plotted a kidnapping, which is a serious crime that could land them in jail. Unless Qin Weijia no longer cared for his son, it would be foolish to do such a thing.

Could it be possible it was the second branch then? After all, their cooperation with the third branch was merely based on mutual interests, and they had had their fallouts before. There was also Liu Yiyi, who lived overseas, and Zhao Zihao. 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Although Zhao Zihao himself was taken in for investigation, if he had made arrangements beforehand, he might very well use this opportunity to create an alibi for himself.

He shared this speculation with Secretary Wang, and later conveyed the same thought to the police when they came to take his statement: "It is very likely that these two incidents are occurring in parallel. On one hand, using the stock market to strike at Hanhai, and on the other hand, using a kidnapping to divert my attention. Now that my wife has been rescued, they’re using this tactic to force my hand."

The police normally wouldn’t concern themselves with corporate competition, at most they’d be involved if it was about financial fraud, which would attract the attention of the Securities Regulatory Commission. However, when linked to a kidnapping, the nature of the case changes, it becomes a clear-cut criminal offense. To find the source, the police would also painstakingly unravel the matter.

Indeed, there’s nothing in this world that cannot be uncovered, unless there’s a lack of desire to do so. The police quickly identified the influential blogger who first broke the news, as well as a string of marketing accounts leading the narrative. They wouldn’t work for free; propaganda requires payment.

Upon investigating the payment, it led to a company in South Australia, and most astonishingly, the major shareholder turned out to be from the Bai Family. The police wouldn’t care if Bai Changyou was Lu Weixi’s biological father; once the investigation pointed that way, they would naturally go directly to the Bai Family.

However, there weren’t many people at the Bai household, the servants shared that Bai Changyou had stepped out, and he was very angry before leaving.

A few days ago, Qin Zhiyou had directly confronted Bai Changyou at Hanhai Headquarters saying that his wife had made him a cuckold. Being the suspicious man that he was, Bai Changyou immediately went back to conduct his own investigation after hearing this news.

Some things, if not thoroughly investigated, wouldn’t show any signs of irregularity. Once probed, things that were previously considered normal began to reveal their hints. For instance, Cai Yiren’s mother and the Cai Family uncle.

These two have been together for a long time, even Cai Yiren was aware of it. While Bai Weiyi had previously taken a paternity test proving he was indeed Bai Changyou’s son, he obviously was closer to the Cai Family uncle. Bai Changyou, inflamed with rage, went straight to the neighborhood where they had another residence. Intent on confronting Cai’s mother, Bai Weiyi rushed at him, his little fists pounding on Bai Changyou’s shoulders: "Let go of my mom, let go of my mom! I want to go find my uncle!"
