"His name is An Xin." Ning Zhiyuan didn't know that the two of them had nearly continued their relationship back in S City. He only knew that this name was a fake name designed by Tao Tian to join the Tao Group, so he said it without reservation.

"An Xin?" Hearing this, Lei Zichen frowned as he stared at Tao Tian's unfamiliar face.

Tao Tian's eyes flashed. He didn't dare to look straight into Lei Zichen's eyes. However, Lei Zichen didn't utter a single word. Instead, he stared at Tao Tian's face with all his might.

How could he not know that Tao Tian was good at disguising himself and that her eyes were the brightest star in his heart? How could he forget?

"Zhiyuan, she's …" Lei Zichen pretended to be calm as he asked.

"Is she your current assistant? "You sure are lucky to have such a beautiful assistant. Are you not afraid that sister-in-law will be jealous?"

"Look at what you're saying, can we start now?" Ning Zhiyuan was eager to know what kind of earth-shattering things Lei Zichen was going to tell him, while Lei Zichen was focused on his status as a so-called 'assistant'.

"Tao Tian." Lei Zichen shouted loudly.

"What!" Tao Tian subconsciously replied, "Dammit, how could she make such a low level mistake." As soon as the words left his mouth, Tao Yao began to blame herself. With her professional killer mentality, she had already made such a mistake.

Ning Zhiyuan was dumbstruck by their astonishing conversation.

"Lei Dong, what's wrong, what's wrong!" Ning Zhiyuan was puzzled.

"First, let's not talk about all of this. You really are a heaven-defying genius!" Hearing Tao Tian's affirmation, Lei Zichen felt a sense of joy.

Tao Tian didn't say anything and only raised an eyebrow as he looked at him. The truth was laid out in front of her. She didn't want to admit it, but she had no choice.

"I'm sorry, but I …" "I already know …" Lei Zichen's face was filled with tenderness, "I know that there's nothing I can do to make up for it. I don't dare to ask for your forgiveness. I just hope that you can give me a chance to help you. I also want to avenge Ran."

Lei Zichen rushed in front of Tao Tian and tightly held her hand as he spoke. His older brother had died miserably, and he was using his life to protect this woman in front of him.

"Lei Dong, this isn't the time to talk about this." Even though Tao Tian's heart was full of emotions, she still coldly pushed Lei Zichen away. She didn't need this.

"Lei Dong, did you call me here today to talk about buying the Western Mountain?" Ning Zhiyuan quickly went back to talking. After all, time was limited, and this wasn't the place to reminisce about the past.

"Zhiyuan, from what I heard from my former brothers in the felony squad who called me, Tao Weiguang might..." As Lei Zichen spoke, his gaze never left Tao Tian. He was finally able to get so close to her, not lament over the distance. He was truly reluctant to leave.

"What happened to the old master?" Ning Zhiyuan asked.

"He could be a concealed drug lord and arms smuggler." Lei Zichen enunciated each word clearly so that the two of them could hear him clearly.

"I mean it!" Tao Tian excitedly asked, his eyes full of surprise.

"Of course." Lei Zichen nodded furiously.

"So that's how it is," Tao Tian didn't even look at Lei Zichen as he excitedly muttered to himself.

"There's a reason for that huge amount of money. He clearly wants to launder the money for him with the help of the Tao clan!" Tao Tian loudly said.

"My brothers are interrogating the owner of the antique shop in which they were trading. Perhaps we will come to a conclusion soon." After this experience, especially the moment when he was certain that he didn't have to get married, he felt a moment of relief. He suddenly understood that the woman he cared for the most in the world was still Tao Tian, and regardless of whether she had deceived him or hurt him, his heart was no longer with himself.

As he said that, Lei Zichen's phone rang rapidly. It was Lan Xin again.

"It's my brother. Wait for me to answer the phone." Lei Zichen said with a face full of joy.

"Hey, Lanxin, how was it?" Lei Zichen's voice trembled with excitement, while Ning Zhiyuan and Tao Tianyi listened quietly with their breaths held …

"Boss, we just finished our interrogation, and I've already come to report to you." Lan Xin replied with a teasing tone.

"Then don't be so long-winded, hurry up and say it." Lei Zichen said anxiously.

When they trade, he is not allowed to participate, but according to his instructions, the sellers here are two men in their forties, and the buyers are almost all a few, but boss, this Tao Weiguang is an old man, how can he be a middle-aged man in his forties? Lan Xin asked with a puzzled expression.

"Oh? "So it's like that." For a moment, he was speechless, even disappointed. Could it be that his judgement was wrong, and every time he discovered Tao Weiguo, they would come a distance apart, but if he was wrong, the two of them were too similar, unless Tao Weiguang's son was reincarnated.

"Oh, right, boss." Lan Xin seemed to have thought of something. "I don't know about their boss, Little Shrimp. However, that follower heard someone call his name once again."

"What's his name?" Lei Zichen hurriedly asked.

"Poppy."

"Poppy?" Lei Zichen frowned as he repeated the name to Ning Zhiyuan and Tao Tian. He wanted to see if they had heard of this name before.

"Poppy?" Tao Yao repeated her words as she thought back to the name that she had heard Auntie Zhong mention before. Tao Junting had once been one of his right-hand men.

Thinking like this, Tao Tian nodded at Lei Zichen, indicating that he had heard of this name before.

"Yao Yao, you know?" Lei Zichen whispered into the phone.

Tao Tian nodded his head deeply.

"Oh, so it's like that, Lanxin. Are you guys going to focus on this opium poppy?" Lei Zichen asked.

"Yes, we are going to completely seal off the news of the antique shop owner's arrest. According to him, it was always the boss who contacted him, so he doesn't know the boss's contact details. He also installed a monitoring device on his phone, and when the boss contacts him again, we will stand guard there and capture him first." She spat out everything she had to Lei Zichen and Lan Xin's hearts.

"Good!" When you have any movements, remember to contact us again. " Lei Zichen said as he hung up the phone.

"Yao Yao, why did Lan Xin say that the boss they came to trade with is a middle-aged man in his forties? "Who the hell is that opium poppy?" Lei Zichen impatiently asked after putting down the phone.

"The poppy is Tao Junting, the assistant of Tao Weiguang's dead son. As for why it's in its forties, I don't know." Tao Tian slowly replied.

"That's it, it's still related to the Tao family. The person I saw that day was clearly Tao Weiguo. Damn it, could it be that the two of them are like this?" Lei Zichen muttered to himself.

"What day?" Ning Zhiyuan and Tao Tian asked at the same time. The two of them looked at each other, and then asked, "Which day? What did you see? "

"In short, I accidentally saw a man who resembled Tao Weiguang and someone else. Now that I think about it, it should be that opium poppy, going to this antique shop twice. I also found something unusual, so I told Lan Xin and asked her and her brothers to help investigate, which led to this series of cases." Lei Zichen told the truth.

"That's strange." She had lived in the Tao family for over twenty years and had never seen any family members from Tao Weiguang before. Her only son had been buried under the wheel, and his grandson was taken away by Aunt Hui, also his dead brother.

Lei Dong, you've already told us a lot today, but we came here in the name of a business deal. I wonder how you're going to negotiate this business deal?" Although there were still a lot of things that needed to be done, if they were to drag the meeting out for too long, it would definitely arouse suspicion. Right now, he was in a dilemma, Yu Gongzi should be fighting with the Lei Clan to the end, and privately, his best friend had died in Tao Weiguang's hands.

"Oh, ah, ah. I do have sincerity in wanting to take over West Hill Villa. I just don't know what you think, Manager Ning?" When it came to business, Lei Zichen's expression immediately changed.

"Regarding this, it depends on your conditions." Ning Zhiyuan immediately went into his work mode, while Tao Yao carefully made notes on the side.

"Don't joke around. Tao's going to go bankrupt soon. Someone is helping you clean up the mess. Do you still want to negotiate conditions with me?" The moment Lei Zichen arrived at the negotiating table, he looked like a sharp merchant.

"Look, this is our offer. Mr. Ning, you don't have to answer it immediately. You can go back with your assistant to consider calling me later." As he said that, Lei Zichen threw over a folder, which was thick with information about his plan to buy the West Mountain.

"Alright, the business is done. Can we continue chatting now?" Lei Zichen smiled charmingly.

This move truly caught the two by surprise, "Miss Assistant, please help your Leader keep it properly." After Lei Zichen finished speaking, he looked at Tao Tian like he was looking at a deer. He tried his best to ignore her unfamiliar face and instead concentrated on the deer like look in her eyes.

Tao Tian rolled his eyes at Lei Zichen, took the folder, and returned to his seat.

"Zhiyuan, you really don't understand. You already know why Tao Weiguang wants to work for him?" Thinking of how he was the one who killed his brother, Lei Zichen's teeth started to itch with hatred. Furthermore, he was a threat to his lover's safety.

"To be honest, I'm in a dilemma right now." On the other hand, Ning Zhiyuan was honest.

"Forget it, it's still too early to say some things now," Lei Zichen shook his head and swallowed his thoughts of trying to acquire Tao Shi. "If there's anything else, I'll inform you. Zhiyuan, it's getting late." Lei Zichen stood up to see you off. " Yao Yao, An … Is he all right? " When he saw Tao Tian, his heart softened.
