Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

After Old Fu opened the door, he was a little surprised to see Xu Bai at the door.

“Lil Bai.”

“Old Fu.”

Xu Bai smiled and said to Old Fu, who had retired but still had the aura of an elite agent, “Aren’t you going to invite me in?”

Old Fu came back to his senses and turned around to invite Xu Bai into the house.

Xu Bai smiled.

He and Old Fu were not just neighbors.

To be precise, Old Fu could be said to be Xu Bail s guide in life.

Back then, Xu Bai was able to enter the Law Enforcement University because Old Fu wrote a recommendation letter for him and became his guarantor of character. That was why Xu Bai was able to enter the Law Enforcement University safely.

Xu Bai walked into the house and habitually glanced at the furnishings and layout.

After Old Fu closed the door, he invited Xu Bai to sit on the sofa not far away.

“Have a seat and have a cup of tea.”

“Okay.”

Xu Bai nodded and followed his advice.

After a while.

Xu Bai took the cup of tea that Old Fu had brewed and took a sip. “It’s delicious.’

Old Fu, who was sitting opposite him, did not even look up. “You’re definitely not here for tea. Tell me, what’s the matter?”

Xu Bai smiled, put down the teacup in his hand, and looked at Fu.

“You know what happened last night?”

“Yeah.”

Old Fu lowered his head to brew the third cup of tea. Without looking up, he said, “When I went out to buy groceries this morning, I heard that he seemed to be looking for Hou Liang?”

Xu Bai smiled. “That’s on the surface.’

Old Fu looked up at Xu Bai in surprise.

“For you?”

“About half.’

“What do you mean?”

“Someone is looking for me. Similarly, someone is trying to kidnap my disciple. ”

“Kidnap… ”

When Old Fu heard this, he was slightly stunned. He frowned and said, “Su Meng?”

Xu Bai nodded. Then, he stroked his chin thoughtfully.

“Fu, Zuo Lei, do you know this person…”

“Clang…

Xu Bai stopped talking. Before he could finish his sentence, he saw that Old Fu, who was sitting opposite him, seemed to be in a daze and dropped the teacup in his hand on the tea table.

The tea bowl fell to the tea table with a crisp sound.

Xu Bai raised his eyebrows.

Old Fu came back to his senses, took a towel, and hurriedly wiped the tea that had run out of the tea table. He looked up at Xu Bai. “Who did you just say, Zuo Lei?”

Xu Bai nodded. “Yes, Zuo Lei.” “That’s impossible.”

“Yes?”

“Zuo Lei has been missing for more than 20 years.”

“What?”

When Xu Bai heard Fu’s shocked words, he was slightly taken aback.

The next second.

Xu Bai seemed to have thought of something. Some intermittent clues quickly flashed through his mind. What Fu had said at that time.

Chen MO said.

Chen Shan’s gossipy information.

And…

What Zuo Lei had said that night.

Did I come back this time to take back what I lost?

Heavenly Dao above.

‘It can’t be.’

Xu Bai thought of a possibility and could not help but raise his head to look at Fu. He said in a shocked tone, “This Zuo Lei can’t be Su Ruyu’s ex-husband, right?”

Fu hesitated for a moment before nodding.

Hiss!

Xu Bai instantly gasped. “Zuo Lei is Su Meng’s father?”

Fu’s expression instantly became strange.

Xu Bai was stunned again.

Breathe in!

He opened his mouth wide.

“I don’t think so.”

“I don’t know.”

“I really don’t know.”

Fu shook his head and said, “I know what you want to ask, but the answer is that I don’t know. Moreover, we signed a confidentiality agreement at that time. If we say it, we have to pay compensation. A large sum of money.”

Xu Bail s expression became strange. “A non-disclosure agreement?”

“Right.” “With whom? Homeland Security or the Su family?”

“The latter.”

Xu Bai looked enlightened. Then, he cooperated and understood what Fu Sichen meant. He took out his Feng City Police Department badge from his pocket and slammed it on the tea table. He looked up at Fu Sichen. “Fu Sichen, you know our policies. It’s not a small crime to hinder law enforcement officers from handling cases or hiding information about cases from them. The Su family’s confidentiality agreement can’t beat the investigation order of our law enforcement agencies.”

Old Fu looked at the Feng City Police Department badge that Xu Bai took out and looked at him with a hint of admiration in his eyes. “Alright, what do you want to ask?”

Confidentiality agreements were also graded.

If he signed a confidentiality agreement with Homeland Security, then, naturally, it would be at the Federation level. Even if Xu Bai took out the badge, he would not be able to say anything.

However, he had signed a confidentiality agreement with the Su family. It was not the Federation, nor did it belong to a place. It only belonged to a person.

He could not take the initiative to say it, but it did not mean that he could not say it passively.

After all, the Su family’s confidentiality agreement could not guarantee that he would be exempted from prison after resisting the law.

Xu Bai leaned back on the sofa and looked at Fu. “Everything. I want to know what I’m investigating.”

“I want to know too.”

Fu smiled and shook his head. Then, he looked at Xu Bai. “What if I told you that I retired from Homeland Security because someone didn’t want me to continue wasting time on the kidnapping case back then?” Xu Bai frowned. “Wasn’t the kidnapping case closed?”

Fu shook his head.

“Yes, the case has been closed, but not for me. When we were solving this case, be it internally or externally, we were under a lot of pressure.”

“Whether it’s the bureau or the Su family, they all want to end this case as soon as possible.”

“Especially after the two kidnappers revealed that the mastermind was Zuo Lei.

This sound became even louder.”

Old Fu recalled the scene when he was working on this case back then and shook his head.

“After all the evidence pointed to Zuo Lei, the chief asked us to close the case as soon as possible. The Su family is also pressuring us. I don’t agree.”

“In the end, I was transferred away from the case. The next day, the case was closed directly. It was so fast that it was as if the tornado had never landed.”

“Su Ruyu quickly found someone from the city hall and edited her information.

“After that, there was a confidentiality agreement. Those who had participated in this case were all found by the Su Banking Group. They used extremely high confidentiality fees to exchange for the confidentiality signatures of all the investigators except me.”

Xu Bai nodded, then looked at Fu curiously. “You said you didn’t sign it at that time?”

Fu shook his head.

“No, they thought that they could bribe me in exchange for my silence. How could that be possible? Therefore, I refused to sign it and have been secretly investigating.”

“What did you find out?”

“Just like you, I was about to ask you about me.”

Old Fu looked up at Xu Bai and said, “However, just as I was about to continue investigating, the Su family, Su Bancheng, came looking for me. He gave me a condition that I couldn’t refuse and asked me to sign a confidentiality agreement. Moreover, the next day, I completed the procedures for my illness and left Homeland Security.”

Xu Bai blinked. “A condition that can’t be rejected?”

Old Fu sighed and looked at Xu Bai as if he was confessing. “When I was young, I went undercover in a criminal organization. There, I met the wife of the leader of the organization at that time. Then, one day, the leader of the organization brought us to fight with another gang. In the end, we unfortunately died. On the day of the wake, I was accompanying her. That year, she was only 22 years old and was dressed in white mourning clothes. That night, it was thunderous. She was afraid, so I accompanied her. In the end, I wasn’t paying attention…”

Before Fu could finish speaking, Xu Bail s mouth was already wide open. “You slept with Sister-in-law?”

Hiss.

Xu Bai, who had received two consecutive critical messages today, felt that his brain could not be used anymore.

“Wait.”

Xu Bai quickly waved his hand and looked at Fu in confusion. “Isn’t this you? When I came back last year, didn’t you always tell me not to go undercover?”

Old Fu looked at Xu Bai expressionlessly. “Then have you ever thought about why I advised you not to go undercover?”

Xu Bai rubbed his chin and looked at Fu. “Are you afraid that I’ll sleep with Sister-in-law too?”

Fu shook his head. “No, I’m afraid that you’ll sleep with everyone’s sister-in-law.”

Xu Bai looked at Fu speechlessly.

Was he such a person in Fu’s eyes?

How was that possible?

I just don’t know how to reject Refuse.

This was a display of innocence.

Xu Bai was extremely puzzled. Why did no one understand him? However, what puzzled him even more was this matter. “This is the condition that you can’t refuse. Are you worried that Su Bancheng will tell him that you slept with Sister-in-law when you were undercover?”

This wasn’t even considered a scandal.

In fact…

If Su Bancheng really did that, this matter might instead motivate the new generation of undercover agents to follow Fu’s example. The undercover criminal organization would fight to sleep with their sister-in-law.

Old Fu sighed. “This matter is indeed not a scandal, but this is not the reason why I signed it. The biggest reason is that he told me the whereabouts of my sister-in-law and my daughter.”

Xu Bai blinked. “What? Daughter?”

Old Fu’s expression was melancholic. “That’s right, daughter. I’ve been looking for my daughter for ten years. Back then, I knew that she was pregnant, but by the time I was reinstated from the bureau, she had already left. I’ve been looking for her for ten years. Su Bancheng used this as a condition to get me to sign a confidentiality agreement. I have no reason to reject this condition.”

Xu Bai nodded.

This condition…

It was indeed impossible to refuse.

Wait a minute.

Xu Bai came back to his senses and looked at Fu in confusion. “No, you knew that your sister-in-law was pregnant. Did you tell her your identity in advance?”

Old Fu nodded.

“I did.”

“Then I don’t understand.”

Xu Bai frowned and said, “Sister-in-law already knows your identity. From the wife of a mafia boss to the wife of a Homeland Security agent, this is an elevation in status. If she’s crazy, there’s no reason for her to leave you.”

Old Fu took a deep breath. “That’s right. After that, I thought about it seriously. Perhaps I told her my identity, but I didn’t tell her that I was the one who stabbed the big shot to death.” Xu Bai was speechless..
