Chapter 555 - Meeting Zhao Sheng
Even though he had solved the problem, Xiao Tian still hadn't found the mastermind behind everything that happened to his aunt.
It was hard to find the mastermind because the mastermind used the new number to send messages to the Golden Bag company's chat group.
Of course, Xiao Tian still suspected Shu because there was a possibility that he was the mastermind. That was why he ordered two of his underlings to follow Shu.
Xiao Tian got out of bed and turned on his laptop. He intended to find the mastermind on social media first because usually many people used their phone number when they registered on social media.
However, after searching for more than one hour, he found nothing. He then tried installing several tracking apps, but still, his efforts were in vain. Xiao Tian even believed that all the apps he just installed were fake tracking apps.
'Sigh.'
Xiao Tian tilted his head back and sighed.
'Damn! It's hard to track someone only using their phone number. All those ads are fake and full of bullshit!'
But, Xiao Tian didn't give up and opened YourTube. However, the result was the same. He still could not track someone using their phone number.
'Fuck!'
Xiao Tian began to run out of patience.
"If others said to never judge a book by its cover, then, in this case, I should say, never judge YourTube videos by its titles, because it's chock full of clickbait." Xiao Tian had no idea what to do. "Should I ask lady Lan to help me?"
Because Xiao Tian had no idea what to do anymore, he suddenly wanted to ask Lan Ruoxi for help.
'Sigh. I always went to see her whenever I needed help. Should I ask Liang Jun to find someone to track down the mastermind?'
As Xiao Tian was wavering whether he should ask Lan Ruoxi for help or not, suddenly his smartphone rang.
"Yo, Xiao Tian. Where are you right now?" Zhao Sheng's voice rang out through his smartphone.
"I'm in my room now." Xiao Tian answered. "Oh! So, you have finished training martial arts with your grandfather?"
"Yes. That damn old man didn't let me go out since three weeks ago. Let's hang out now." Because he had been training martial arts non-stop for three weeks, Zhao Shen wanted to hang out with Xiao Tian.
"Sure. Where should we meet?" Even though Xiao Tian still wanted to find the mastermind behind what had happened to his aunt, he could not refuse when Zhai Sheng wished to hang out with him.
Not only had Zhao Sheng helped him many times, but there was a possibility that Zhao Sheng would help him solve the problem again.
"How about we take a walk at Shanghai River?" Zhao Sheng suddenly wanted to go to Shanghai River.
"Sure. Let's meet at 04:00 pm." Xiao Tian replied.
"Alright." Zhao Sheng replied before hanging up the phone.

Because it was still 01:00 pm, Xiao Tian traveled to Star Clothes company because there was something important he wanted to ask Shi Fei to do. As soon as he entered his office, Xiao Tian immediately called Shi Fei.
As usual, when Shi Fei stepped into his office, she spoke with a smile on her face, "Little brother, do you miss me?"
Instead of answering, Xiao Tian asked her to sit on the couch. "Come and sit next to me."
"What's wrong?" Shi Fei asked after sitting on his right side.
"Fei, find people who want to buy Hong's family properties like cars, houses and the other." Xiao Tian went straight to the point.
At first, Xiao Tian wanted to ask Liang Jun to do that, but because Liang Jun had no idea that Xiao Tian took over the Hong family's wealth by force, he decided to ask Shi Fei to do that.
"All right." Since she became director, Shi Fei gained more connections so it would be easy for her to sell the Hong family's properties.
"Prepare fake identities for four people as well." Xiao Tian began to explain why he needed four fake identities.
In order to avoid suspicion, Yanmo and the others had to go abroad. That was why Xiao Tian asked her to make four fake identities so that Yanmo and the others could come back with another identity.
"All right." Even though it was challenging to make four fake identities, Shi Fei believed that she could do that.
"You can return to your desk now." Xiao Tian intended to work before going to Shanghai River to meet Zhao Sheng.
"Eh!" Shi Fei spoke in surprised. "You don't want to lovey-dovey with me?"
"Not now, Fei. I have to go to my other company now." There was an important work that he had to finish quickly. That was why he didn't want to lovey-dovey with her.
Of course, it was not like he preferred his companies over his woman, but he could lovey-dovey with her whenever they wanted, and Xiao Tian was also sure that Shi Fei would not mind it.
"All right." Even though Shi Fei was a little disappointed, she didn't ask Xiao Tian to spend time with her. After kissing his cheeks, Shi Fei walked out of his office. "I will return to my office now."
After Shi Fei left, Xiao Tian wasted no time and went straight to Eternal Beauty company. Xiao Tian worked until 03:30 pm before finally, he changed his clothes and traveled to Shanghai River to meet Zhao Sheng.
To his surprise, Zhao Sheng was already at Shanghai River when he arrived. They wasted no time and took a walk together.
"Finally, I feel alive again!" Zhao Sheng shut his eyes and tilted his head back. "I heard you went to Beijing with big sister Ruoxi. What were you doing in Beijing?"
Upon hearing Zhao Sheng's words, Xiao Tian immediately replied. "I only accompanied lady Lan to the banquet."
Xiao Tian then explained Zhao Sheng everything. However, he didn't tell Zhao Sheng what he did to Lan Ruoxi in Beijing because he knew it would be better if Zhao Sheng didn't know about it.
"So, when will your new underling come to Shanghai?" Zhao Sheng inquired.
"I don't know." Xiao Tian replied instantly. "But he said he would come to Shanghai soon."
"You have his phone number, right?" Zhao Sheng spoke.
"Of course, I have his phone number." Xiao Tian didn't know when Mu Huo would come to Shanghai because he didn't ask Mu Huo about it.
He was so busy after returning to Shanghai. That was why he forgot to ask Mu Huo about it.
"Why do yo-" Xiao Tian stopped his words halfway when his smartphone suddenly rang. When he knew it was his underling, he immediately spoke, "How is it?"
"Boss, the target is meeting someone at Bamboo Restaurant right now." Xiao Tian's underling replied.
"Go order food and drink." Xiao Tian spoke and paused for a second before he continued, "Sit close to them but remember not to get too close because it can raise suspicion. After that, follow them and report to me later."
"Understood." His underlings replied before hanging up the phone.
"Did something happen to you again?" Zhao Sheng inquired.
"Not to me, but my aunt." Xiao Tian gave an honest answer.
"What happened?" Zhao Sheng asked again.
"It's like this.." Xiao Tian began telling everything to Zhao Sheng.
"I see. So, you still haven't found the mastermind, huh?" Zhao Sheng spoke after Xiao Tian finished explaining everything to him.
"It's hard to trace someone using only their phone number." After saying that, Xiao Tian sighed helplessly.
"I know someone who can track people using only their phone number." In the past, his family often asked that person to track someone.
"Really?" Xiao Tian said happily. With Zhao Sheng's help, Xiao Tian was sure that he could solve the problem easily. "Can you introduce that person to me?"
"Let's go to his house tomorrow morning." Zhao Sheng spoke.
"Sure." Xiao Tian answered as he nodded his head.
Xiao Tian and Zhao Sheng spent time at Shanghai River until 06:00 pm before finally, they returned home.
------------
"I'm ho-" Xiao Tian stopped his words halfway when he saw his mother talking with his aunt seriously.
"Qingyu, don't worry. Tian will find the mastermind quickly." Earlier, she was enraged when she found out that someone spread a false rumor about Ye Qingyu.
Luckily, Xiao Tian could solve the problem quickly. Otherwise, she believed that Ye Qingyu would have depressed.
"That's right, aunt. In less than two days, I will find the mastermind." Xiao Tian spoke as he sat next to his aunt.
Xiao Tian dared to say something like that because Zhao Sheng would help him later. And it seemed like his underlings also found evidence earlier.
"Tian, welcome home." because she had a serious conversation with her younger sister, Ye Xueyin didn't notice that her son had returned home.
"I'm home." Xiao Tian spoke as he kissed his mother's cheeks.
Ye Xueyin returned her attention to her younger sister and spoke, "Did you hear that, Qingyu?"
"Un." Ye Qingyu nodded her head.
She had no idea why her big sister kept thinking that she was still sad even though she said she was fine.
Of course, she didn't hate it because, with this, she knew that her elder sister cared about her so much. Her big sister even never stopped comforting her since she returned home.
After Xiao Tian took a bath and had dinner together with his mother and aunt, he immediately headed to his room. As usual, his aunt and mother followed him to his room.
