Huo Junxian did not come away empty-handed. Through the collar positioning of Xiao Yu, she traced that Gu Siyu had been to the airport and also found that on that day, Duan Jiayang had appeared at the airport.
Initially, Huo Junxian had also used the collar to search for Gu Siyu. However, on that day, the collar had been to too many places, and she thought it was a diversion. After failing to find the person, she didn't dare to overlook any possibility, even investigating all flights.
She also suspected that Duan Jiayang might be helping Gu Siyu.
Unfortunately, Duan Jiayang didn't seem capable of helping Gu Siyu. Even if she wanted to suspect, with Duan Jiayang's abilities and thinking, she had to rule it out; otherwise, it would truly be a waste of time.
Huo Junxian had approached He Xiao before, but He Xiao was running her shop peacefully. Judging by her daily demeanor, it was clear she knew nothing.
Huo Junxian decided to go ask Duan Jiayang directly.
She brought a gift and visited directly. The members of the Duan family welcomed her, especially Duan Jiayang's father. He had stopped playing golf and hurried back to entertain her, even specially inviting a few chefs to prepare a meal.
Huo Junxian behaved very politely, personally presenting the gift and saying, "Uncle, I'm really sorry to disturb you today. The main reason I came is to ask Jiayang about something."
"What's the matter? Feel free to ask." Duan Litian specifically called Duan Jiayang over, and he was very pleased for his daughter to have contact with Huo Junxian.
He was a peculiar old-fashioned man who loved his son very much, believing that only his son could inherit the family business. Usually, he didn't pay much attention to his daughter, but he could accept his daughter's preference for the same gender. As long as the other party's family background and abilities were beneficial to the company, he would even encourage the two to develop a relationship.
Duan Jiayang, accustomed to a pampered lifestyle, always behaved like a little princess at home. Her dad and sister had already awakened early downstairs to entertain guests. She, still half-asleep, wearing pajamas and slippers, groggily came out of her room asking what was going on.
Duan Litian's face turned dark, and he scolded her.
Upon seeing the people on the sofa, Duan Jiayang hurried back to her room, changed into clean clothes, and neatly combed her hair. She looked into the mirror, holding back her frustration, first thinking about the possible exposure of Gu Siyu's matter. She lingered in her room until the maid knocked on the door again. Sneaking downstairs, she tried to gauge information by observing Huo Junxian.
However, Huo Junxian was gentle, and her emotions were calm. When Duan Litian scolded Duan Jiayang, Huo Junxian even spoke up for her.
Sitting across from them, Duan Jiayang felt guilty, swallowing her unease. Meeting Lin Ke's gaze accidentally, she felt uncomfortable all over. In contrast to Huo Junxian's kindness, Lin Ke's puzzled eyes seemed more like she was looking for trouble.
Huo Junxian pushed a cup of tea toward Duan Jiayang and said, "Here's the thing, I plan to bring Gu Siyu back. Can you tell me where she is?"
Looking at the hot, steaming cup of tea on the table, Duan Jiayang hesitated to take it, lowering her head dryly.
Duan Litian, sitting opposite her, scolded her, "Jiayang, if you know something, tell your sister Huo. In the future, if she has any projects, talk to her. Didn't you say you liked playing with her before?"
Duan Jiayang's weakness was always easy to exploit. Today, Huo Junxian used a dual strategy: her father was present, and she tempted Duan Jiayang with a new project.
