Billionaire's Long Journey of Chasing His Love-Chapter 853 - 711: Clues (First Update)

Tong Airui and Denton had a secret meeting upstairs for over an hour. When they came down, Tong Yao deliberately took a glance and saw no injuries on their faces or bodies, only then did she breathe a sigh of relief.

"Denton, what would you like to eat tonight? Auntie will cook for you personally."

"Mom, cook for him tomorrow instead. Leon called and invited Denton and An Yang to the royal palace for dinner. There will be quite a few royals accompanying them. You and Dad should get ready, we’ll head over together in a bit."

"Your dad and I are going too?" Tong Yao seemed a bit reluctant and frowned slightly.

Denton approached with a smile, "Auntie, this is the final step. Please help me observe. If An Yang can handle everything well, we’ll get married when we return."

Tong Yao laughed upon hearing this, "That’s great news! I’ll go get your uncle and we’ll head to the royal palace together."

"Auntie, I have a favor to ask."

"Speak, Auntie will agree to a hundred favors from you!"

"Please don’t worry about An Yang losing face and don’t remind her, be it you or my sister."

Tong Yao considered it and readily agreed, "I’ll go get your uncle, he’s judging a competition between An Yang and Sang Yu in the basement."

Smiling, Tong Yao stepped out.

"Sis, you’re amazing!" Shortly after, Zibin’s voice was heard from outside the door.

"Sis, when you’re as old as First Aunt, you’ll definitely be even more formidable!" Ziheng chimed in with flattery.

Sang Yu laughed with her mouth pursed, "Stop buttering me up! This matter crosses all age boundaries, accurate is accurate, inaccurate is inaccurate. We tied this time, I still need to give it my all."

Ziyan glanced at his sister, "It’s best that you think this way. I was just about to remind you, I feel First Aunt intentionally went easy on you."

"Whether you can tell or not, don’t mention it!" Ruan An Yang chuckled as she pinched Ziyan’s smiling face.

Ziyan retorted a bit defiantly, "There’s no cheating on certain issues! If everyone keeps indulging Sang Yu, she’ll think she’s so remarkable, which will be detrimental to her in the future!"

Ruan An Yang laughed while patting Ziyan’s shoulder, "Alright! From now on, I’ll listen to you! Ziyan, you’re fantastic, you have principles! I need to learn that from you!"

Ziyan smiled with his little mouth pursed, "Dad taught me that!"

Tong Airui listened with a smile forming on his face, his son wasn’t even eight years old and so sensible, his future was boundless!

"Buzz buzz..." Just as the kids came in, Tong Yao’s phone rang.

Tong Yao looked at the number and quickly answered the call, "Big Mouth, how come you’re so free today, have time to call me."

"I’m here to ask for forgiveness." The voice of Big Mouth came from the phone apologetically.

"Haha... what sin have you committed, I declare you innocent first."

"I was in charge of the case of switched blood labels at the city central hospital, searched for so long and finally had some leads. But when I went to arrest the suspect, I discovered this person had already committed suicide out of guilt two days ago."

Tong Yao frowned slightly, "What poison was used?"

"A mix of over ten poisons..."

Tong Yao quickly listed off ten poison names, "Was it these?"

Big Mouth was startled, "Yes! How do you know them so clearly?"

"I was the one who administered the poison!" Tong Yao laughed, "Don’t worry about this case any longer, close it. The rest will be handled by Rui’er."

"Alright!" Big Mouth had heard bits from Ning Mingxi before; if the deceased was indeed that person’s subordinate whom Tong Airui had been pursuing, he really couldn’t handle it.

"How have you been lately? Ning Mingxi told me you’ve been living it up increasingly."

"Well..."

Long Che took the phone from Tong Yao’s hand, "With me here, when is Yaoyao not living it up! When you’re retired, come to Summer Sorcery to play for a few days! But first, you must be healthy and live a long life!"

Tong Yao gave him a sidelong glance and sulkily sank into the sofa.

Long Che quipped a couple of lines to Big Mouth and then handed the phone back to Tong Yao, "This guy, all laughs with you, but goes all business with me, saying he has cases to handle and doesn’t chat with me."

"With the way you talk, I wouldn’t chat with you either!" Tong Yao pushed him away in annoyance, peering towards her son who was smiling secretly, "Your Uncle Big Mouth said they’ve found the person, but it was a corpse."

Tong Airui nodded with a smile, "Hmm, I got it, handling several cases at once, he thought I’d be overwhelmed, but he didn’t realize my wife solved two troublesome matters with just two phone calls."

"Complimenting me again?" Yi Luowa emerged from Lady Jingya’s room with a smile.

"Just praising your capability!" Tong Yao smiled and said, "We’re going to the palace shortly, us three ladies should go upstairs and change."
