The Glamorous Comeback of the Ousted Heiress-Chapter 858 - 334CLA founder

Su Xu hadn’t expected anyone to enter at this time.

He looked up at the old man standing opposite the director.

The old man in front of him had somewhat white hair, a pair of pitch-black eyes that were vibrant, and was dressed in an ox-horn gray long robe with a standing collar and straight lapels, all the buttons neatly fastened.

Neat, clean.

He was lightly turned to the side, looking towards himself.

It was merely an old man, yet Su Xu felt somewhat breathless under his gaze.

"Elder Ji, how could we possibly investigate you!" The director opposite had already set down his tea cup, still steaming, and hurriedly spoke, "Hello, I am Pei Xi, I’ve had someone go to receive Bai Lian already. Rest assured, we absolutely do not harbor any doubts about your family, all of this is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."

As he spoke, he picked up the phone again from the desk, "Where is Bai Lian?"

They had also investigated for a few days, besides that call from Academician Ma, there was no evidence.

Besides that, nothing was found out regarding the Mu Family or Bai Family.

As for the Ji Family...

Even less was found.

Thinking of this, Pei Xi looked at the two badges on the table and didn’t dare speak.

"Director Pei, Mr. Xiao Kong has already been taken there."

Hearing the response, Pei Xi let out a sigh of relief, hung up the phone, and poured tea for Ji Heng.

"Elder Ji, please have some tea," Pei Xi walked outside and handed the tea to Ji Heng, "Bai Lian will be out soon."

Ji Heng’s gaze shifted to the door.

Within a minute, someone brought Bai Lian in from outside the door.

Bai Lian had been detained for a few days, looking somewhat thinner, but her mental state had not changed at all, still wearing the same plain-colored dress from that day.

Seeing that Bai Lian was unharmed, Pei Xi couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

Thankfully, this young lady had a stable mentality, otherwise, this situation wouldn’t have been easy to handle.

"Grandfather?" Bai Lian hadn’t expected Ji Heng to be the one picking her up, and was quite surprised.

She had expected three more days.

"Hmm," Ji Heng as usual was silent, noticing at a glance that Bai Lian was in good mental and physical state, he was relieved, "Come back with me."

He didn’t speak to Pei Xi, nor did he look at Su Xu beside him.

He just took Bai Lian and left.

Pei Xi naturally didn’t dare say anything, and even with a smile, saw the two out.

Outside.

Xu En’s car had been parked the whole time.

Today, he had driven Ji Heng to two places, the first in the afternoon was an unknown street, now it was a heavily guarded forbidden area.

The guards nearby prominently displayed their guns.

He sat in the driver’s seat, not daring to move his hands, his heart in his throat.

Only when he saw Bai Lian and Ji Heng walking far out from the door did he breathe a sigh of relief and opened the driver’s door to step out.

"Alian, are you alright?" he asked first, looking Bai Lian up and down.

Her clothes were clean and neat, only she appeared a bit thinner.

Her condition was very good.

"Let’s go back first," Ji Heng only carried a cell phone, indicating Xu En to get in the car first, "Alian hasn’t eaten yet."

The group departed.

Pei Xi finally breathed out slowly, and only when the car was out of sight did he walk back into his office.

"Director Pei," Su Xu caught up with Pei Xi, confused, "Why? You also saw, she endured so long, this person must have issues, and just like that, you let her go? Not investigating her anymore?"

The two returned to the office.

On Pei Xi’s desk, there were still two badges.

"Su Xu, recognize this?" Pei Xi didn’t answer but just pointed at the two badges and raised his brows, asking.

Su Xu lowered his gaze and squinted.

Two badges, one a bit old, with a little leaf and a letter "A" on it.

He didn’t recognize that.

The other badge was newer, not a letter but a number "8" on it.

It looked somewhat familiar, but in Su Xu’s career, he indeed didn’t recognize this badge, "Is this a People’s Merit Medal?"

"This badge, it’s normal you don’t recognize," Pei Xi pointed at the slightly older badge, his expression serious, "It’s a badge for underground intelligence officers from the early founding period of our nation, only eight were made."

Su Xu was slightly stunned.

After Pei Xi finished speaking, he pointed at the other badge, "This belongs to that Elder Ji, but later, he went into seclusion."

Other than that, Pei Xi didn’t say more.

"Ms. Ji and Elder Ji’s descendants, their granddaughter, having such strong mental fortitude couldn’t be more normal," Pei Xi knew not much else, just this evident fact, "What issue could feasibly arise from such a family background?"
