Five minutes later, Li Huan was tied to the office chair.

He looked at Chen Jin and smiled, "Don’t mess around. I still need to do rounds later." _{frёewebηovel.cѳm}

"This week you’re assigned to consultations, not rounds." Chen Jin leaned against the desk and said sternly, "Don’t try to evade this. Whose child is that?"

"Zhou Zhao’s." Li Huan answered seriously and firmly.

Chen Jin’s lips twitched, his brows furrowing, "You should know what I’m talking about."

Li Huan rolled his eyes, "Isn’t it just a comic? Pure coincidence."

"It may seem like a coincidence that the three of us resemble the characters in the comic. But that little girl’s appearance—only you, me, and Third Young Master know about. Who could draw her so precisely? Unless she exists in reality. Do I need to spell it out for you?"

"Can you stop being like Third Young Master? I don’t know." Li Huan turned his face away, visibly uneasy.

"So you do remember him. You know what kind of life he’s been living for the past three years. He still thinks it was Mr. Sang who hid the girl away." Chen Jin said angrily.

Li Huan pressed his lips together, hesitating before responding, "Chen Jin, you can’t just think about Third Young Master. You also need to consider Lin Zhiyi. Even if everything you suspect is true, do you really have the heart to drag the mother and daughter into this? Don’t forget, Ye Feifei still hasn’t been found, whether she’s alive or dead is uncertain."

Hearing this, Chen Jin fell silent.

After a moment, he untied the band around Li Huan’s back.

"Keep your identity low-key. Get in touch with the comic author. I took a look—the comic’s popularity is extremely high. If it’s about us, that’s one thing, but that child can’t be drawn any further."

"Alright."

Li Huan agreed, letting out a small sigh of relief.

A few minutes later, a notification popped up on Chen Jin’s phone with newly gathered information.

The comic author is currently in Gang City.

Following Chen Jin’s gesture, Li Huan made the call.

After a few rings.

A sweet female voice responded, "Hello."

Li Huan stared at the investigative information on Chen Jin’s phone, hesitating for a moment before asking, "Are you..."

"What?" The woman asked again, patiently waiting for him to speak.

"Are you..." Li Huan stared at the name but struggled to say it.

"If you’re not going to talk, I’ll hang up."

"Wait a moment." Li Huan decided to go for it, "May I ask if you’re ’Savage Woman Wielding a Large Knife at Midnight’?"

What kind of woman would give herself such a username?

The woman chuckled, "Yes, that’s me. Who are you? Are you here to discuss business? I’ve already negotiated two deals today, and I’ll probably be tied up for the next month."

"It’s not about business—it’s about the child you drew..."

"Child? Xingxing?" The woman instinctively blurted out.

"..."

Li Huan and Chen Jin froze when they heard the child’s name.

There was no mistake.

The appearance and the name matched.

Gong Chen once said that the child in his dreams was named Xingxing.

Li Huan hurriedly spoke up before Chen Jin could, "I hope you’ll take down the parts of the comic related to the child."

"Why should I?"

"Because the child is..." Li Huan was at a loss for how to explain.

The woman suddenly exclaimed loudly, "I know who you are now! You scumbag! Still trying to dig up dirt about the child? Keep dreaming!"

Beep beep beep—the call was abruptly disconnected.

When they tried calling again, Li Huan found he had been blocked.

Helplessly, he looked at Chen Jin, "She called me a scumbag."

Chen Jin’s face darkened slightly, "Nobody can know about the existence of the child. Take some leave and head to Gang City to negotiate face-to-face with the comic author."

"Alright." Li Huan nodded.

Chen Jin hesitated, "If you do meet her and the child... can you take a photo?"

Who "she" referred to was clear without saying.

Chen Jin thought such a photo might help Gong Chen at a critical moment.

Li Huan thought about Gong Chen and nodded bitterly.

Nobody knew Gong Chen’s situation over the past three years better than he did.
