Why did Li Haiyang lie?
Chen Shikun remembered what Guo Xuyang had instructed before entering the room.
And what he had asked about Li Haiyang before.
This Li Haiyang was deeply involved in his daughter's disappearance.
He couldn't help but clench his fist.
He never expected that his usually caring prospective son-in-law would be a beast in human clothing, a traitor who would turn against his own.
He even wished to put his precious daughter, Hai Ling, to death without a second thought.
"Xiao Qiang, go and bring Li Haiyang here."
"Isn't he working overtime, Dad?"
"I told you to go now. Hurry. I'll be waiting for you here."
"Alright then."
"Also, when you get there, absolutely do not mention that your sister has woken up."
"Just say the hospital has issued a critical illness notice and ask him to come and see her one last time."
Chen Qiang didn't know why his father wanted to say this, but since he had given the instruction, he must have his reasons.
Guo Xuyang understood perfectly, but Chen Hai Ling was completely baffled, not knowing what was wrong with her father.
"Dad, did something happen to Haiyang?"
"No. When he arrives, you continue to lie on the hospital bed."
"Do not speak at all, do you understand?"
"Alright. But why is this happening?"
"You'll understand when he arrives," Chen Shikun said.
He hated it in his heart, not knowing why Li Haiyang would treat his daughter this way.
He wanted to ask Li Haiyang clearly in front of him, why did he do this?
While Chen Hai Ling had woken up, Xiao Yu had also found detailed information on Sun Shihai and Sun Xin.
Sun Shihai, General Manager of Jinyang Real Estate Co., Ltd. in the provincial capital, with assets reaching billions.
Sun Xin, son of Sun Shihai, currently working as a manager at the real estate sales office.
Sun Shihai also had a daughter named Sun Yiling, who was currently in a psychiatric hospital and had attempted suicide a few days ago, almost dying.
Fortunately, she was rescued in time and was out of danger.
"Can you help me get Li Haiyang's information?"
"What you're saying is too vague. There are hundreds, even thousands, of Li Haiyangs across the country. Which one are you looking for?" Xiao Yu said.
"Please wait a moment." Guo Xuyang covered his phone and asked Chen Hai Ling, "How old is Li Haiyang, and where does he work?"
"He's twenty-seven this year, working at the Provincial Party Committee General Office."
"He's twenty-seven this year and works at the Provincial Party Committee General Office."
Guo Xuyang relayed Li Haiyang's information to Xiao Yu.
"If you already know, what else do you need to check?"
"Help me check if he has had any large expenditures recently and his close relationships with relatives and friends."
"Then you'll have to wait.
I need to find some time to look into it.
Everyone is quite busy right now."
"I'll wait for your call," Guo Xuyang said, hanging up the phone.
"Who was that?" Xiao Yun asked.
"Xiao Yu. I feel like there's something wrong with this Li Haiyang."
"I can't explain why I feel this way.
I hope I'm wrong." Guo Xuyang said.
"You said earlier you were drinking. Who were you drinking with?"
"With Sun Yiling's father and her brother, and Haiyang and his friends," Chen Hai Ling said.
"Why were you drinking?"
"Sun Yiling's father said Sun Yiling was discharged from the hospital and was happy.
So he invited me and Haiyang to have a meal together.
Also, he still had a piece of land whose procedures hadn't been completed.
He wanted me to help him with it."
"Was it just you guys?"
"Yes. There were eight of us in total. Later, Haiyang left early because of something.
There were also two women, I don't remember where they were from."
"How is your relationship with Li Haiyang usually?"
"It's very good. He's very considerate to me. It's not like he's completely obedient, but if I told him to go west, he wouldn't dare go east."
"What's his family situation like?"
"He came here after passing an exam in a lower county. He's very talented.
It seems he's alone at home. His father is an ordinary worker, and his mother works as a nurse in a hospital.
His family's conditions are average. Anyway, they're not as wealthy as I am.
Usually, I pay for eating out and other expenses."
"Have you considered if he might lose face?"
"He doesn't have money.
He can't be overly concerned about face and suffer hardship.
Besides, I'm his girlfriend. What face would he lose?"
"I heard he used to pursue Sun Yiling?"
"That was when he was in school.
But Sun Yiling didn't like him. Sun Yiling is Xiao Qiang's fiancée.
They even slept together in high school."
Chen Hai Ling glanced at Chen Shikun and said.
"Hai Ling, you mustn't talk nonsense about this outside," Chen Shikun said.
"I'm not talking nonsense.
You're busy with business, and you haven't paid attention to family matters.
She often doesn't come home, saying she's staying with me.
In the middle of the night, she runs to Xiao Qiang's room.
She sneaks back in the morning.
I've caught her several times.
She begged me not to tell you adults." Chen Hai Ling said.
"So, does this mean Sun Yiling has always really liked your brother Chen Qiang?"
"Of course. My brother is very handsome.
She was thin and weak back then, not yet developed, like a stick of firewood, with nothing. She was just a clothes rack.
Later, when she went to college, she gradually became more plump and attracted many suitors."
"How do you know this?"
"Sun Yiling told me everything.
We talk about everything. Our relationship has always been very good.
Including Li Haiyang pursuing her, she told me about it later."
"You still went to see her when she was admitted to the psychiatric hospital?"
"I went to see her last week.
I went with Haiyang. Haiyang even cried.
Sun Yiling seemed to have suffered a lot in the psychiatric hospital, and she had returned to her thin and weak state from high school."
"You said Li Haiyang still likes Sun Yiling?"
"How to say that? He probably still likes her.
Sun Yiling said she was Li Haiyang's first love.
First loves are always memorable, right?"
"Wasn't Sun Yiling Chen Qiang's girlfriend?
How did she become Li Haiyang's first love?"
"She was Li Haiyang's dream girl.
He treated her to a few meals. Seeing how stingy he was, she never really thought highly of him.
Later, she stopped paying attention to him."
"How do you know all this so clearly?"
"Sun Yiling told me everything.
She tells me everything.
She even tells me about her matters with my brother."
"Can you take me to see Sun Yiling?"
"What time is it? If it's visiting hours, I can take you right now."
Chen Hai Ling was about to get out of bed.
"You've just woken up, you can't get out of bed. You need to rest well."
Her mother stopped her in time.
"I'm fine, I just drank too much.
I was happy that day, so I didn't control myself."
As they were talking, Chen Qiang's call came through.
"Dad, we're coming upstairs. Li Haiyang is right in front of me."
"Okay. You can come up."
Chen Shikun hung up the phone and told Chen Hai Ling to lie down.
"Close your eyes. No matter what you hear, you are not allowed to speak. I'm doing this for your own good, do you understand?"
"Alright then," Chen Hai Ling said, closing her eyes and lying down on the hospital bed.
