Returning to the box, Hu Yishan and the two looked at Xiao Zheng's somewhat lost expression, and were inexplicably shocked.
They know Xiao Zheng and are familiar with Xiao Zheng. Knowing that this young man's mind is extremely powerful. Maybe even if the sky falls, it may not make him lose his composure.
But why did he answer a phone call at this moment and become like this in just one minute
Hu Yishan asked with his heart tightening: "Brother Xiao, what happened?"
But Shang Yao asked more thoughtfully and viciously than he did: "Is there something wrong at home?"
"Yes." Xiao Zheng slowly raised his head and took a sip of Pu'er. "But something happened not to my family. It was to the Bai family."
Shang Yao looked at each other, a little confused.
Didn't something happen to the Bai family? What else could happen
Facing the doubtful looks of Shang Yao and others, Xiao Zheng had a bitter smile on his lips and said in a low voice: "News came from Baicheng. Bai Zhengqing died at home this afternoon. The cause of death was a sudden heart attack."
"What!?"
The faces of Shang Yao and Shang Yao changed drastically, and they said in unison: "The old man has a very strong body, how could he die suddenly?"
Shang Yao shook his head frequently and pursed his lips: "I went to Baicheng on business at the beginning of the year and visited Bai Zhengqing. No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like he is suffering from a disease. And - this is too coincidental!"
Sooner or later, he died of illness just when there was a problem with the Bai family's capital chain. No matter how anyone looks at this matter, they are more willing to believe that this is a huge conspiracy!
Even murder!
If it was murder, who would do it
Who else has such courage
You know, Bai Zhengqing is not someone who dares to touch even cats and dogs. As the Tu emperor who ruled Baicheng's economy for half a century. His influence in Baicheng is even stronger than that of the local government.
Government officials are elected every four years, and as the head of the Bai family, he has worked for a lifetime!
"No matter what, this news is indeed reliable." Xiao Zheng shook his head, interrupting Shang Yao's questioning.
Lao Lin immediately informed Xiao Zheng of the news. There are many reasons. First, Ye Gong and Bai Zhengqing are old acquaintances, and their friendship is there. Secondly, Bai Zhengqing's death was mysterious and inextricably linked to the Jufeng network. Lao Lin informed Xiao Zheng in the hope of providing more information to help Xiao Zheng understand the situation. Convenience and judgment.
But whether it was public or private, Xiao Zheng couldn't accept it.
In the final analysis, except for one Bai Wushuang, Xiao Zheng has no prejudice against the Bai family. Even the old monk established a deep friendship. Even in the meeting with Bai Zhengqing, the two sides talked very friendly. There is no contradiction.
In addition, Xiao Zheng learned from Ye Zanghua that Mr. Ye was critically ill, and the negative emotions that Xiao Zheng had just suppressed resurfaced again, making his face very ugly.
The dinner ended hastily, and Hu Yishan and Shang Yao used their networks to thoroughly investigate the matter and quickly prepared follow-up work. After Xiao Zhengze left Longfeng Tower, he immediately called Bai Wuxia.
The previous problems with the Bai family were due to the involvement of the Jufeng Network and its huge capital chain, and it was not convenient for Xiao Zheng to intervene in both public and private matters. What's more, Bai Wushuang's statement is to some extent hostile to Xinao behind Xiao Zheng. In order to avoid suspicion, Xiao Zheng did not bother the old monk.
But this time it was different. He greeted the old monk purely as a junior. But he got the same bad news as Lao Lin.
"The old man is gone. He had a heart attack. There was no warning in advance. He left very suddenly."
The old monk's rather deep voice came from the other side of the phone, with a touch of sadness in his voice.
Not to mention twenty years of Buddhism, even a lifetime, how can it be worth the family love that blood is thicker than water
Xiao Zheng had no relatives since he was a child, and he was not qualified to comfort others. He just said a few words and ended the conversation.
He could also hear that the old monk did not want to discuss this topic too much. After all, it is a family matter, and it is a trivial matter, and no one wants to discuss it too much.
When driving home, Lin Huayin was sitting in the living room watching TV and drinking tea. But what was playing on the screen was not the financial news she usually watched. A boring entertainment program was going on, but Lin Huayin's eyes were a little blank. The focus is not on the TV.
Xiao Zheng changed his slippers, sat next to Lao Lin and said, "Uncle Bai and I talked on the phone."
Lin Huayin nodded slightly and said in a low voice: "Put the company aside for the next two days and let's go to Baicheng."
Xiao Zheng nodded, not surprised.
Besides, the two of them could be regarded as representing Ye Gongguan during their trip there. Makes sense.
"I just don't know how much negative impact Mr. Bai's departure will have." Xiao Zheng took a sip from Lao Lin's teacup and said bitterly. "Not to mention Baicheng, just those predators in Sijiu City will be unable to sit still."
Lin Huayin nodded and said: "The old man left too suddenly, especially at this critical moment. It's hard not to make people think too much."
Xiao Zheng vaguely heard that Lin Huayin had something else to say, but he didn't go into details.
This is an obvious thing. Not to mention the couple, even those who watch the excitement will make up many conspiracy theories.
However, there is no conclusion as to whether the old man really had a sudden heart attack or was assassinated. Xiao Zheng had no way of knowing.
But when all the clues are connected, what Xiao Zheng is most willing to believe is that the matter is related to Qiu Shuang and the descendants of the Zhao family.
Once the old man dies, there will definitely be trouble in the Bai family. Especially the second son of the Bai family, there is a faint element of disharmony. It will add fuel to the fire.
This is probably the ultimate goal of the descendants of the Zhao family. Take risks first and create chaos. And then defeat them one by one
Xiao Zheng put down the tea cup, gently hugged Lao Lin's waist, and said softly: "Don't go this time, I will go there on behalf of you."
Lin Huayin glanced at Xiao Zheng and refused, "No."
Lao Lin mentioned that she spent a relatively happy National Day holiday at Bai's house when she was five years old. The main reason was that her mother-in-law promised to accompany her to celebrate the festival, but as soon as she arrived in Baicheng, she was entangled in official business and couldn't get away. In the end, Lao Lin could only be thrown to the Bai family.
Just because of the friendship that existed many years ago, Lao Lin was willing to go there in person. What if we learn about Ye Gong's condition
Xiao Zheng was somewhat glad that he had hidden this from Lao Lin. Otherwise, Lao Lin might have been tortured to death in the past two years.
White lies are gentle most of the time. At least it won't hurt too much.
After finishing the conversation, Lao Lin went upstairs to prepare his luggage and booked a flight for tomorrow morning. Don't give Xiao Zheng a chance to maneuver.
Helpless Xiao Zheng had to inform Tina who was relaxing in Southeast Asia. This trip may not be dangerous, but even Mr. Bai died at home inexplicably. Xiao Zheng had to be cautious.
If anyone dares to hurt Lao Lin at all, Xiao Zheng will be buried with the whole world!
