That morning, Ye Mubei's secretary, unusually, did not call him to handle company matters. Instead, it was eerily quiet.
Ye Mubei was still immersed in his slumber when he was suddenly startled by the rapid ringing of the phone.
Ye Mubei's head was splitting with pain, the hangover from the previous day had not yet fully subsided, but he still struggled to get up and answer the phone, greeted by the very familiar voice of a man.
"Ye Mubei, there's been new progress in the investigation you asked me to conduct," the man said.
Initially feeling somewhat groggy, Ye Mubei's eyes widened in shock when he heard what the other party had said, and he urgently replied.
"Really? What have you found? Tell me quickly!"
However, after hearing Ye Mubei's words, the man on the other end of the line fell into a long silence.
Ye Mubei waited with bated breath, anticipating the man to share the news with him.
