Hearing Gu Jiaojiao's tone, which was clearly not a joke, Han Jingshen froze for a second, but his face remained impassive.
But inwardly, he grumbled, 'Didn't Su Shuochi marry a fairy like you even when he was poor and crippled?'
But he didn't dare say that out loud. Instead, he steered the conversation back to the case, asking uncertainly.
"So, are you saying there's a problem with Doctor Ye's wife? That perhaps she was the one who led him to that organization?"
"Mm, that's a strong possibility. But it wasn't his wife. Doctor Ye supposedly knew a movie actress, one who was even a little famous.
He was very fond of the actress, but then she suddenly disappeared. The story goes that she starved to death.
I strongly suspect she faked her death to assume a new identity, or perhaps she fled the country."
Gu Jiaojiao and Su Shuochi had to dig into Doctor Ye's entire family history before they found a few clues.
