While waiting for the meals, Xiao Ruofeng found the registration webpage, “Fill in your personal information. Afterwards, upload your identification card and you’ll be done.”

“That’s right, have you brought your identification card? I’ll scan it for you,” Xiao Ruofeng said.

“I brought it,” Ye Fei handed her identity card to Xiao Ruofeng.

Xiao Ruofeng took it and only skimmed over it casually when his gaze suddenly fixed onto the identity card.

The address shown on Ye Fei’s identity card showed that it was in Ye Cheng!

“You’re from Ye Cheng? I can’t hear it from your accent at all,” Xiao Ruofeng asked with a smile.

Ye Cheng was a city in the south, so people there had a heavier accent when speaking in Mandarin.

However, Xiao Ruofeng couldn’t hear any such accent from Ye Fei’s ordinary manner of speech.

“I’ve been in B City for five years, so I’ve already corrected the accent,” Ye Fei chuckled.

Xiao Ruofeng calculated internally. If it was five years ago, it happened to be the same year that Zhao Gushen went to Ye Cheng.

Xiao Ruofeng hurriedly said, “I’ll go scan your identity card for you.”

After he finished speaking, he ran off with Ye Fei’s ID.

“Er—” Ye Fei wanted to stop him and tell him that, didn’t his office have a scanner and photocopy machine too?

Alas, she was too late.

Ye Fei glanced at the scanner and photocopying machine at the side with a difficult expression on her face. Then, she heard Ye Xiaomo say, “Uncle Xiao is so foolish, yet he can still become the president’s special assistant—I really worry for this company.”

Xiao Ruofeng, whom Ye Xiaomo was deeply worried about, rushed into Zhao Gushen’s office without even knocking on the door.

Afraid of being seen by Ye Fei, he even remembered to close the door.

“Young Master Shen!” Xiao Ruofeng dashed over and nearly plunged into Zhao Gushen’s embrace, over the office desk.

“…” Zhao Gushen pushed him away in disdain, “Stay further away from me.”

Xiao Ruofeng: “…”

He had actually worked extremely hard for such a heartless person for seven whole years!

“Young Master Shen, don’t you feel that Ye Xiaomo looks very much like you?” Xiao Ruofeng lowered his voice and asked.

Zhao Gushen spoke without even thinking,”How can I possibly look similar to that narcissistic little fellow!”

“Young Master Shen, it’s true. You should find an opportunity to look in the mirror with him. He really seems to be carved out of a mold of you,” Xiao Ruofeng said, “The last time we were at the wonton stall, I already felt that he looked familiar, but I just could not remember who he looked like. In the end, while you were carrying him today, I suddenly realized that he looks like you, that’s why I found him so familiar.”

“What are you trying to say?” Zhao Gushen voiced coldly, “Don’t tell me that you still want to say that that little fellow is my son, who had gone missing from outside?”

He was still single!

Where would the son come from!

Even if it was that woman from five years ago…

Zhao Gushen frowned.

If she had really schemed to give birth to his son, why would she not look for him in the past five years? When his son had already grown this big?

Which scheming person would be that stupid!

As he thought about it, Zhao Gushen’s face darkened all of a sudden.

Xiao Ruofeng didn’t know what Zhao Gushen had thought of. He handed Ye Fei’s identification card over to Zhao Gushen right away, so he could take a look.

“Young Master Shen, it’s so coincidental, but Ye Fei is also from Ye Cheng. Moreover, she came to B City five years ago. Five years ago, that happened to be when you—” Xiao Ruofeng noticed Zhao Gushen’s expression darken abruptly and halted his speech.

“No matter whether it’s a coincidence or a misunderstanding, I think that this is a piece of clue,” Xiao Ruofeng said.

“Go and investigate,” Zhao Gushen uttered in a low voice.

They had been searching for that person for five years, yet there wasn’t the slightest bit of information.

Now that they finally had some clue, although they didn’t know whether it was reliable or not, it should still be something for them to be happy about.

But as Xiao Ruofeng looked at Zhao Gushen’s reaction… It didn’t seem like he was happy about this matter.
