"Ma'am, we have found out the details of that young woman." The person at the other end of the phone reported.
Hearing the good news, Shi Wenqian adjusted her sitting position as she urged him to go to spill the details.
"Her name is Mikayla XXXX. She is 25 years old. She graduated from XXXX. She came from XXXX home town where her family is currently staying at..."
*******
As soon as Secretary Cha stepped out Shi Wenqian's sight, she slipped her phone out from her trouser pocket to check on the text that had come in.
Reading the text from Fang Bingwen, she looked around her surrounding apprehensively before shifting to some where our of the house to make a call to him.
Answering the call, Fang Bingwen didn't give her a chance to speak before starting to throw questions at her.
"When next will Shi Wenqian visit that place?"
Hearing the question made for an immediate and straight forward answer to be given, the woman released a deep breath before replying.
"Tomorrow."
"Find a way to come out of the house by 4 pm. I will text you the address and make sure to delete the evidence after reading it." He instructed.
"Yes."
With the call ending, a long sigh of relief escaped Secretary Cha's lips.
How was she going to find an excuse to leave Shi Wenqian's side when she was literally her handbag? This means that she had to work hard to find a good excuse if she didn't want to offend the man who was ready to take care of her if she didn't comply.

During lunch break, Zhang Mingyu finally found a little time to leave his desk to go find Mikayla.
From the time he stepped foot into his office up till this moment, he had been texting her but no response came from her.
He tried calling her, but the call didn't connect and finally when an opportunity cane by for him to check up on her by himself, he took it.
Leaving his office, he went straight to the large working area. Unlike before where he would stop outside, he stepped in and went directly to Mikayla's empty desk.
Glancing at her desk that seemed so clean, his brows furrowed.
Seeing him come in, the few people remaining in the office wondered what he was doing.
But just as they were thinking a lot of different things, he turned his attention to them.
"Where is Mikayla?"
"Mikayla? She took a sick leave." One of them answered.
"She didn't come at all today?" Hearing her response, a glint of surprise flashed across his eyes as black lines appeared on his forehead.
He was so taken aback by the information that he didn't know what to say for a few minutes.
Mikayla never mentioned this part to him when he last spoke to her, and that has even made him to start suspecting if she had a different agenda apart from what they had talked about.
Uneasy as he didn't know what that girl had planned, he returned to his office and tried to reach her several times, but failed.
Deciding to go to her place as soon work ended, he tried to draw his attention away from her thoughts, but it was quite difficult.
Right when he left for his office, the few co-workers in the room began to talk about his possible relationship with Mikayla.
"Do any of you know why he came looking for Mikayla?"
"I don't think it has something to do with work otherwise he would have asked any of us."
"Something must be going on between them." They concluded.
On the other hand, Mikayla who was the content of Zhang Mingyu's worry, didn't look disturbed in any way as she stepped out of the cab that stopped her in front of the big hospital she had come to.
As she had purposely blocked out Zhang Mingyu's call, she didn't want anything that would distract her.
Stepping into the hospital, she confirmed the appointment she had booked the previous day before being taken to the waiting area, and a card given to her.
Since there are still others that came before her, she had to sit and wait for her turn.
Half an hour later, her number was called.
"Here!" Raising her hand so she could be seen, she quickly grabbed her hand and stood up to follow the nurse waiting for her.
Arriving at a room that looked like a little rest area and at the same time a lab, she was shown a seat.
Sitting on the chair she was shown, she looked up to listen to the woman holding a tablet in her hands and reading some information out from it.
"You made an appointment to see a gynaecologist and also to do a pregnancy tests is that right?"
"Yes." Mikayla confirmed.
Putting the tablet aside, the woman asked, "When last did you see your period?"
As soon as Mikayla answered, another question was thrown at her.
"What kind of symptoms are you experiencing? Have you gotten a pregnancy test before?"
Some minutes later, Mikayla was shown another line to join for her to see the gynaecologist.
Right as she was sitting at the second waiting area, she saw the nurse that had attended to her, walk past her and go into the gynaecologist office after showing another patient to a seat.
In a few minutes later, Mikayla heard her name being called by the nurse coming out from the doctor's office.
Without wasting time, she picked up her bag and walked in while wondering what was delaying with the test she had done as she had learned that it didn't take time to come out.
Although she was aware that she was pregnant, she couldn't help be a little nervous with the one she was going to get from the hospital.
She hoped it wouldn't be any different from the one she got at home.
Stepping into the doctor's office and sitting across from her, she saw the female doctor size her up with her gaze before speaking.
"Mikayla right?"
"Yes."
"You took a pregnancy tests some minutes ago and the results are here with me. I don't usually dive much into this kind of topic since I didn't major in it. But for today, I can help."
Taking a look at the papers, she placed them into the file and called for the nurse in the same office with her and handed it to her.
"Take her to Dr. Clara, she can handle this now. Tell her it's from me."
Shifting her gaze back to Mikayla, she quickly explained. "Dr. Clara is an obgyn..."
Understanding her explanation, Mikayla quickly followed the nurse out and fortunately, she didn't have to waste any time before gaining access into the doctor's office.
As soon as the Doctor glanced at her file, she pointed at the end to the corner and said, "You are pregnant."
"How long gone am I?" Mikayla asked after secretly sighing in relief.
"We will see."
Unknown to Mikayla, the person Shi Wenqian sent to tail her, was still on her neck.
***
"She went to the hospital instead of going to work?" Shi Wenqian asked.
"Yes, Ma'am." The man replied.
"Make sure you find out every detail before you leave that place. If there is any issue, make sure to use any resources you can to get me answers. I don't mind you calling back again."
***
"You are Seven weeks gone." Dr. Clara announced.
Up till the time Mikayla got to her place,that was the exact words that kept sounding in her ears.
"I am almost 2 months pregnant."
Happy with the news, she quickly picked up her phone and was about to call, Zhang Mingyu, but then she remembered something and changed her mind immediately.
She was not going to tell him the result so easily. She was going to let her come on his own to hear the answer and see the evidences in her hands.
On the other hand, Shi Wenqian was huffing mad after hearing the feedback she got from the man she had sent on assignment.
"What do you mean the person that attended to her has already clocked off work? What were you doing she was getting away?"
"I'm sorry, Ma'am! I was a little distracted when she entered took a turn in the hallway. Since patients and visitors were not allowed to go into that place, I could already return to wait close to the lab. But after waiting for a while and not seeing her, I found a different nurse and inquired about her. It turns out that she left as her shift was over."
Shi Wenqian's underling was just unlucky as he was not able to get the information he was asked to.
Now, he had to wait to the following day when the nurse that attended to Mikayla to come back just so he could bribe her and get answers from her.
But Shi Wenqian didn't want to give up just like that as she was in a hurry to know what was going on. "Is there no one else you can find the answer from instead of wasting my god damm time?!"
