“That’s why I said that this matter is a little strange. I thought about it and it’s only possible that Jiang Ce is hiding something from me. Perhaps he found clues elsewhere and even made progress, but he didn’t tell me,” Lin Zheng said unhappily.

Lin Feng smiled and comforted the old man. “After all, this matter has yet to be confirmed. Perhaps it’s indeed not convenient for them to publicize it. If they really find the person, they will definitely tell you.”

Lin Zheng said impatiently, “She’s his granddaughter, not mine. I don’t care. If it weren’t for the fact that he can’t even find his granddaughter at his age, afraid that he would die before me if he continues to be sad, I wouldn’t be bothered with his matters.”

Lin Feng knew that Lin Zheng had always been rude with his words, but he was actually very loyal, so he did not take Lin Zheng’s words seriously.

It was getting late. Lin Feng prepared to return to his room to rest. He controlled the smart wheelchair to “walk” to the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Zhu Ci standing at the door in a light-colored suit.

Lin Xin had moved out a long time ago. He was usually busy with work and rarely came to Lin Zheng’s place.

Lin Sui came a little more often, but not often.

Only Zhu Ci would come over when she had nothing to do. Sometimes, she would make healthy soup for Lin Zheng, sometimes, he would help Lin Zheng trim the flowers in the backyard, and sometimes, she would send some precious calligraphy and paintings.

Lin Zheng’s attitude towards Zhu Ci was not fond or enthusiastic, but it was not cold either. If Zhu Ci’s soup suited his taste, he would drink it. If he liked the calligraphy and paintings given, he would also accept them.

Lin Feng was a little surprised to see Zhu Ci. It was not strange for Zhu Ci to come here, but it was getting late. What was she doing here? Zhu Ci had her own room here, but logically speaking, she wouldn’t suddenly come over in the middle of the night.

“Aunt Zhu.” Lin Feng nodded at Zhu Ci.

Zhu Ci smiled. “It’s getting late. Xiao Feng, go back to your room and rest.”

Lin Feng did not ask why Zhu Ci had come so late. The wheelchair bypassed Zhu Ci and quickly returned to the room, closing the door.

Zhu Ci watched as Lin Feng’s figure disappeared. Two seconds later, she walked into the study. The moment she entered, she complained, “The doctor said that you have to rest early. What time is it?”

Lin Zheng did not refute. After Zhu Ci sat down, he asked, “How’s the matter I asked you to ask?”

Zhu Ci looked a little troubled. “Mr. Deng said that he hasn’t had much contact with our family over the years. He has to apologize to you. He also said that when he’s not busy with work, he will definitely visit you personally.”

Lin Zheng did not want to listen to this nonsense and asked, “What’s the situation with his daughter?”

“Deng Yue has been single for the past few years. As for anything else, I didn’t find out,” Zhu Ci said helplessly.

From Zhu Ci’s tone, Lin Zheng could tell that the Deng family’s attitude towards the Lin family was not particularly enthusiastic.

The two families used to have a good relationship because Lin Feng’s mother had a teacher-student relationship with Deng Yue’s grandmother. After Lin Feng’s mother died, the Deng family stopped interacting with the Lin family.

Lin Zheng frowned for a moment before relaxing.

“Xiao Feng’s birthday is next month. Go again and invite them to the Lin family’s banquet.”

Lin Zheng’s tone was unquestionable, as if he did not consider whether Zhu Ci could do this.

Zhu Ci’s eyes flickered. After a moment, she nodded. “Okay.”

She really did not know if the Deng family would come. She only knew that even if she didn’t want to do it, she had to do her best.

After walking out of the study, Zhu Ci leaned against the wall, her expression a little gloomy.

A few days later, Deng Bo had just returned from the hospital. Before he could take off his coat, he saw his wife rushing over from the living room.

“What is it?” Deng Bo asked in confusion. Then, he had a bad feeling. “Did Yueyue cause trouble again?”

Mrs. Deng shook her head. “No, Zhu Ci came again. She just left two hours ago.”

Deng Bo frowned and his expression became much more serious. A moment later, the two of them sat on the sofa. Mrs. Deng asked nervously, “Do you think they discovered something?”

Deng Bo did not answer this question and asked, “What exactly did the two of you talk about?”

Mrs. Deng hurriedly said, “It’s nothing. It’s Lin Feng’s birthday in a few days. The Lin family wants to invite us to the birthday banquet.”

Deng Bo clenched his fists and placed them under his chin. After thinking for a moment, he analyzed, “If Zhu Ci and the others had doubts about us, they definitely wouldn’t have invited us to the Lin family directly. They would have investigated in private, but now…”
