"Dad, are you coming with us?"

Chi Youyou drank the milk from the glass, her eyes darting around as she changed the subject, giving Song Shiyu a glare in the process.

This man was completely different from the cold persona he had when they first met!

Is this what they call a double-faced person?

Chi Dayi’s thoughts wandered when his daughter asked that.

"I’m not going. He’s the one who wants to see you."

The teacher-student relationship with Elder Kong had ended when he left before, so there was no need to meet again.

Chi Youyou didn’t insist; after having breakfast, she and Song Shiyu set off for the police station.

The other members of the Cheng Family were arranging the old man’s funeral affairs.

"What’s wrong?"

Halfway through the drive, the car suddenly braked hard.

Fortunately, Song Shiyu and Chi Youyou, sitting in the back, were accustomed to wearing seatbelts, so they weren’t thrown out.

"Sir, the car almost hit another one at the turn. I’ll go check it out; it should be fine."

Jiang An glanced ahead, giving a brief report. However, shortly after getting out of the car, he returned, and the door of another car parked parallel to them opened, and someone they all knew stepped out.

"Sir, it’s Mr. Wilson."

Indeed, it was Wilson.

"I didn’t expect to run into Miss Chi and Mr. Song here."

Seeing him approach, Song Shiyu and Chi Youyou naturally had to get out of the car.

Their two cars were parked by the roadside, not obstructing traffic.

"Sorry, Mr. Wilson, accidentally scratched your car."

"No worries, Mr. Song. It’s my urgent business that caused the driver to speed. I’ll take care of this matter."

Mr. Wilson graciously took all the responsibility, "Do you have any urgent matters? If so, go ahead and deal with them first. I’ll have my assistant follow up later."

"Thank you, Mr. Wilson. I’ll also have my assistant follow up."

"Miss Chi, I also heard about your grandfather. My condolences, and I’ll visit personally later."

"Thank you, Mr. Wilson."

Chi Youyou and Song Shiyu didn’t stay long. After exchanging a few pleasantries with Mr. Wilson, they left directly.

They had an appointment at the police station, and the minor car accident caused them to be slightly late.

"Mr. Song, Miss Chi, please come in."

A young police officer came to receive them, "Elder Kong has been waiting here. If you need anything, just call me."

"Thank you."

This was a separate conversation room, but Elder Kong was behind glass, while they were outside, and the entire room was equipped with surveillance.

"I heard you wanted to see me?"

Chi Youyou still spoke with a formal tone, although her face was tense, giving off a feeling of being a thousand miles away.

Elder Kong looked noticeably more haggard than before as he gazed at Chi Youyou through the glass.

"Maybe I’m just getting old, simply wanting to see the person who pushed me to the edge."

His face showed no anger; instead, he smiled, "Truly someone I admire."

"I’ve never thought I was wrong. I only hate my lack of ability, failing to complete the final research, but I believe it will certainly open the door to a new world."

Chi Youyou squinted her eyes, "Who was supporting you to complete the research?"

Elder Kong had been muttering to himself, but upon hearing Chi Youyou’s question, his expression changed slightly. He knew she was smart; how great it would have been to meet her earlier!

"I... cough, cough, cough..."

He moved his lips, just about to speak, when suddenly he started breathing heavily and collapsed heavily to the side.
