Hello, Heir Chapter 485 - Five Years On, It's My Turn to Pursue You (5)

Taxi driver?

Zhuang Nainai’s eyes lit up. That’s right! Back then, he had claimed that he was the one who had knocked Mother Zhuang over. He had even gone to jail. After the entire incident, Zhuang Nainai had forgotten all about him. However, he would definitely remember who he had taken the blame and went to jail for in return for money.

After seeing Zhuang Nainai’s expression, Si Zhengting slowly said, “I’ll ask Ji Chen to investigate his whereabouts. Once I find him, I’ll be able to get him to talk.”

At this point in time, he would do anything to prove his mother’s innocence.

As he thought about this, an evil and foreboding air flashed in his eyes. After a moment, he snapped back to his senses and saw Zhuang Nainai looking at him, as though she was stopping herself from saying something. He hurriedly grabbed her arm, then said in a low voice, “Don’t worry. Before I’ve investigated more about the matter, I won’t force you to do anything.”

Zhuang Nainai heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Si Zhengting’s attack on her beliefs surrounding the event had been too strong. Her defenses had been completely breached.

Just a few words from him and she had fallen into his hands.

But even though she had succ.u.mbed to Si Zhengting’s attack, she still harbored a sense of guilt toward Mother Zhuang.

—

Si Zhengting’s level of efficiency was vigorous and effective. After his conversation with Zhuang Nainai, he immediately called a few people.

Zhuang Nainai looked on with eager eyes. She seemed alert, so he put his phone on loudspeaker mode so that she could hear everything that went on in the call.

Finally, someone managed to uncover that person’s details.

“As this person is an orphan, he has a rather uncommon name. His name is w.a.n.g Hu. Everyone calls him Hu Zi. He hasn’t been out of prison for long.”

He had been released from prison?

If he hadn’t been released from prison, it would be easy to locate him. But since he was already released, locating him would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Si Zhengting narrowed his eyes and coolly asked, “Hm, do you have any news about him?”

“Because you wanted information about him urgently, I pulled some strings and looked for a couple of people who are in this line of business. He had driven a taxi in the past, so all his information was with the taxi company. I’ve just gotten news that he had been dumped by his girlfriend, and his love for her had turned into hatred. After he had been released from prison, he went looking for her to seek his revenge, but his ex’s current boyfriend gave an order to kill him. Hence, he’s since been hiding like a rat among the shadows!”

After he heard this, Si Zhengting furrowed his brows.

In other words, he was in hiding and they wouldn’t be able to find him.

He paused for a while and lowered his voice. “Alright, thanks, I’ll buy you a cup of tea sometime.”

“No problem. Leader Ting, any problem of yours is mine as well. You don’t have to be so polite with me. I’ll be going, then. Bye!”

After hanging up the phone, Si Zhengting was deep in thought. Then, he pulled out his phone and called Ji Chen. “Circulate this information amongst the taxi drivers: I’m looking for a person called Hu Zi. He’s been released from prison a couple of days ago. If anyone can provide me with any relevant news about him, they’ll be given $200,000 as a reward.”

Ji Chen was shocked. “$200,000? Mr. Si, I don’t think that information is worth so much. Even if they were to give you any news about him, it might be insignificant. You’re looking for someone…”

“Do it.”

“… Understood.”

Si Zhengting was wealthy and stubborn, and Ji Chen couldn’t go against his wishes.

But it was definitely easier to get news of someone with this reward of $200,000.

Things had progressed to a relatively advanced stage. Thus, all that was left to do was wait for news. Si Zhengting sighed. He really wished that he could find this Hu Zi within the next second, then bring him before Zhuang Nainai so that he could tell her the truth.

Because after he had established his mother’s innocence, he would be able to be on good terms with her as before.
