Chapter 228: 220 Lady Zhong’s body was cold [2 more updates]
Upon hearing this, Lady Zhong’s eyes sharpened, “What does Patriarch Fang mean?”
“Nothing much.” Fang Zhicheng casually picked up his teacup, “I just want to see if he has any other background. It would be troublesome if he got involved in something problematic.”
Fang Ruotong has leukemia.
Although it’s not too severe, she does occasionally suffer from anemia and bleeding, with chronic pain in her sternum and leg bones.
Fang Zhicheng has been searching for bone marrow that matches Fang Ruotong’s.
Unfortunately, he tested everyone in the Ningchuan match database without finding a match for her.
Therefore, he turned his attention to Shanghai City, and, to his relief, found ten individuals there.
He has three sons, but only Fang Ruotong as a daughter. Naturally, he couldn’t stand idly by and watch her suffer from illness.
So, he contacted Lady Zhong, asking for her help to find these ten people and determine whose bone marrow is the most suitable.
The Fang Family is the number one family in Ningchuan and has naturally crossed paths with the Zhong Family in the business world.
However, Fang Zhicheng didn’t know that Lady Zhong had already divorced Zhong Haiyan and been expelled from the Zhong Family when he reached out to her.
But, after finding out, Fang Zhicheng actually felt relieved.
His dealings were never quite transparent; the Fang Family didn’t rise to be Ningchuan’s top family by entirely honest means.
Having interacted with the Zhong Family a few times, Fang Zhicheng knew well that Elder Zhong and several of the Zhong Family’s shareholders were too straightforward to tolerate any underhanded tactics.
That’s why he didn’t approach Elder Zhong directly.
“Background?” Lady Zhong laughed upon hearing this, “A country bumpkin from Qingshui County who couldn’t even get enough to eat, what kind of background could he have?”
If Wen Fengmian really had some background, could he still live in a place like Qingshui County?
Moreover, even if he had, could he be more influential than the Fang Family?
After leaving the Zhong Family, she lost all her power and couldn’t lay a hand on Ying Zijin and the Wen father and son.
Every time she approached that neighborhood, tall and burly bodyguards would come out to watch her.
Even if she could take Wen Tinglan and Wen Fengmian away, there wasn’t much she could do.
Just when Lady Zhong was unwilling to give up, Fang Zhicheng sought her out.
As it happened, Wen Tinglan was one of the ten candidates.
So Lady Zhong didn’t even bother to look at the other nine individuals, and directly targeted Wen Tinglan.
She also used a student from Verdant to trick Wen Tinglan into going to the King club.
Deceiving Wen Tinglan was just too easy.
Although his IQ was remarkably high and he was cautious,
his many years of autism and psychological barriers left him lacking in communication with the outside world, making him an easy target for a little trickery.
It took no effort at all.
To this, Lady Zhong felt nothing amiss.
“Then I’m relieved,” Fang Zhicheng nodded, “please ask Madam Yuan to wait a moment. We need to carry out the bone marrow typing first to see if it’s usable.”
Lady Zhong took another graceful sip of her tea, “Patriarch Fang, please, feel at ease.”
Fang Zhicheng stood up, leaving Madam Fang to keep Lady Zhong company in the living room.
After he left, he went to the study.
On the computer, there was information that his subordinates had just sent him, pertaining to Wen Fengmian. ƒгeewёbnovel.com
As for Lady Zhong’s words, Fang Zhicheng only believed a fraction of it.
He scrolled the mouse to start reading through the information.
The information was brief, just one page long.
After reading it, Fang Zhicheng furrowed his brow.
The document showed that Wen Fengmian grew up in Qingshui County, born in 1974, making him 46 years old that year.
In 1999, he married a woman from another county and had a daughter.
In 2004, they had another child, Wen Tinglan.
That same month, his wife took the older daughter and ran away, taking all the valuable things from home with her.
The rest of the information described how difficult Wen Fengmian’s life had been over the last decade or so.
But what caught Fang Zhicheng’s attention was that the document did not mention anything that happened before 1999, it seemed too clean.
Fang Zhicheng pondered for a while, then shook his head and smirked to himself.
He was thinking too much.
If Wen Fengmian really had something unusual about him, would he still be unable to afford medical treatment?
If it’s too clean, it probably means there’s not much to write.
