Oh my god! The goddess secretly gave birth to three obedient daughters for me

"I came here to discuss something else; you needn't worry yourself with wild guesses. Look at me, aren't I perfectly fine? If it were unsafe, how could I possibly be staying in such a comfortable room?"

"When will you be coming back?"

"If everything goes smoothly, I guess I'll be back in two or three days, and then we'll see how things stand." Read exclusive adventures at My Virtual Library Empire

"Oh, okay, I got it."

"Right, and unless it's something urgent, don't call me these next couple of days. The signal here is sometimes erratic. It's fine in the hotel so I can take calls, but once I leave, I'll lose connection. There's Xi Lian Mountain nearby, which seriously blocks the signals. If there's anything, I'll get in touch with you."

"Fine, I understand. Just be careful and stay safe."

"Okay, I will. If there's nothing else, you and the child should rest early. That's all for now."

After finishing, he hurriedly hung up the phone.

He let out a long sigh. Lin Yi had truly experienced this woman's keen sense of observation.

And he knew that some things just couldn't be discussed any further. Talking too much would surely arouse suspicion.

Just now, he had nearly spilled all his affairs.

Unexpectedly, right after hanging up, he saw that Li Jingwen was calling again.

"Hello, what's up?"

"What are you doing? Who were you calling just now? I've been trying to call, but I couldn't get through at all."

"I was just discussing some other matters; go ahead, what's up?"

"Discussing other matters? Were you checking in with your wife?"

"Haha, stop it, what do you need?"

"Where are you right now?"

"Didn't I tell you? I'm on a business trip out of town. I should be able to return in a few days."

"Oh, I see. Today, I even went to ask around near the People's Hospital. Turns out, she indeed seems to have quit her job."

"Right, would I lie to you? I went over first thing in the morning the other day to inquire, and indeed, someone had deleted the records."

"Whoever this person is, they seem quite formidable, and they must have sensed my movements by now. Think about it, are there any major players in that area?"

"How would I know? Every day I just focus on selling and manufacturing drugs; how could I possibly be aware of such things? I'm not involved with the underworld."

"Oh, I see."

Li Jingwen seemed genuinely disappointed upon hearing this.

She had intended to get some information out of him, but it looked like he couldn't provide much help.

"Aside from that, have you found out anything else? Look, I'm free right now, tell me, and I'll help you analyze it."

"I also found out she has a mother. She's been living with her mother for years, and they're quite dependent on each other. Seems like her mother has been chronically ill."

"Not bad, you've managed to dig up quite a bit so quickly."

"Of course, do you need to ask about our efficiency?"

"Now that you know this, you should be able to find her home address, right? Why not go there directly?"

"Of course, we went there, but after knocking for ages, there was no one home. I heard from the neighbors that they left early in the morning with a lot of bags, not sure where they went."

Upon saying this, Lin Yi frowned in frustration.

Their actions were indeed much faster than he had anticipated.

They had so quickly found Liu Yao's home, and now this; bringing them over was more correct than ever.

"Could it be they already left the city?"

"That's precisely what I'm worried about. If they've left the city, then continuing my search is pointless. But it's strange to me, why leave in such a hurry?"

"That, I don't know. Maybe it was the man with her who helped her leave. Maybe he realized you were investigating him."

"It's terrifying. We had just left and our moves were all behind-the-scenes, yet he already sensed it. He must have significant power."

"Now you're like a kite with its string cut. What do you plan to do next?"

"I don't know. If this is the case, then I'll just have to keep searching thoroughly here and see if I can find this woman. If I really can't, then I might have to give up for the time being."

For some reason, when he mentioned giving up temporarily, Lin Yi felt somewhat relieved.

After all, there was still much he had to do, and hiding like this wasn't truly a solution.

Yet, he believed that once he returned to the city with Liu Yao, these people would quickly catch on.

He truly didn't know how to handle it then.

They already had her photo, and all they needed was to match it; after all, one can't change their appearance.

Even if you change your address, your lifestyle, or even your environment, you can't change your face.

"Why are you guys so anxious to find that person? Is she really so important to you?"

"I don't know, to be honest. She's not that important to me. I really don't want to focus on this right now."

"If she's not important to you, who is she important to then? Did someone ask you to do this?"

"Oh come on, don't ask so much about my business. How are things with you?"

"Oh, nothing, I'm doing well over here."

"That's good. We'll talk more when you arrive."

"Right, if you really can't find her, just wait for me. I'll think of something once I get back; after all, I've lived in that city for many years."

"Okay, I understand. For now, I'll just stall a bit there. Finding her like finding a needle in a haystack is so hard."
