Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife-Chapter 972: No Corpse Intact (5)

"Miss, it’s strange that the head of an institute does not monopolize power. There are also results for the investigation you asked me to conduct on the young man who has had contact with Pei Wen. There are three individuals that match your description and are more likely suspects,"

"Good, send the information to my email. Continue to follow up with Haitian Hospital."

An Yiqing lay lazily for a while longer, then got up, entered the room, and turned on the computer.

According to the investigation by An Zhifeng and the others, Haitian Hospital was more complex than she had imagined.

Upon opening her computer and logging into her email, An Yiqing quickly glanced over the photos of the three men in the email from An Zhifeng.

Her gaze finally settled on the last man.

The man in the photo had thick eyebrows and large eyes, a slightly elongated face, pale skin, and lips with a hint of purple. His mouth corners were slightly upturned. Taking a closer look at his facial features, An Yiqing suddenly remembered a saying from the Great Elder of the Medicine Sect, who was deeply versed in physiognomy: according to face reading, men with this type of appearance are resilient and very devoted, but they are also doomed to die young and violently!

An Yiqing didn’t know if what the Great Elder said was true or false, but from the complex aura of this man, she was certain that he held secrets!

This man... her eyes flickered, and An Yiqing’s gaze fell on the small print beside the photo.

Shi Yimeng, thirty-one years old, Xuanjin Medical Research Institute Professor. A native of Xuandu City, his parents had passed away, and he was raised by his adoptive father.

Picking up her phone, An Yiqing dialed a number.

"Ah Feng, look up everything about Shi Yimeng, from his birth to the present. Investigate every last detail."

If her suspicions were correct, this Shi Yimeng should be the man Pei Wen spoke of—the one he had never seen in person.

Among the three men An Zhifeng had provided her with, the first two were ordinary doctors with clean backgrounds and normal family conditions. Of course, all of this could be fabricated, but one’s appearance and complexion couldn’t be faked.

The photos An Zhifeng sent were high-definition and unretouched originals, so clear one could even see the blood vessels in the man’s eyes.

From the complexion of the first two men and the depth of wrinkles in various areas, An Yiqing could initially deduce that their characters were very outgoing. Their nasolabial folds and crow’s feet were somewhat deep, the lines on their glabella were indistinct, and their mouth corners naturally curled up in the photos, their eyes bright and clear—a sign of people with cheerful personalities and smooth-sailing lives.

However, this Shi Yimeng, although his mouth corners also turned up, did so with a hint of deliberateness. Compared to the laugh lines by his nasolabial folds and corners of his eyes, the fine lines between his brows were immeasurable. Then there were the blood vessels in his eyes and the murkiness of the sclera, which likely didn’t develop overnight.

Staring at his photo, An Yiqing’s eyes slightly narrowed. A Xuanjin Medical Research Institute Professor, such a prestigious title usually held by middle-aged or older individuals over forty, yet here he was in his early thirties occupying that position—wasn’t that very strange?

Of course, this didn’t preclude the possibility of exceptional personal ability or a privileged family background. But for an orphan raised by an adoptive father, with no connections and although having excellent academic records for over a decade, it was certainly not enough to compare with the cream of the crop from Xuan University or Hu University. For such a person to attain the position of the highest medical research institute professor at Xuanjin in his thirties was completely unreasonable!

About an hour passed, and An Zhifeng’s call came.

This time, his tone was somewhat heavy.

"Miss, there is definitely something off with this Shi Yimeng. We can’t find out anything about his adoptive father’s identity. The villa in the video clip we intercepted of Pei Wen and Cai Ziyu—it’s registered in his name!"
