Chapter 636 - Gunan?

Linfeng thought the old man was calling him by that name.

He turned to the old man, his face softening. "What is it, grandfather? Are you hungry?"

"I am not your grandfather, but your father, Ben!" The old man complained in a raspy and wizened voice.

Doctor Ben was one of the doctors who died in those \'accidents\', and was Doctor Jame\'s father\'s younger colleague.

Linfeng simply allowed the old man to call him Ben. "...I apologize.... Father."

The old man then took another peek on Linfeng\'s phone again and narrowed his eyes. His murky eyes suddenly seemed sharp.

"He really is... Without a doubt! That\'s Gunan, right? When did Gunan become so tall?"

Oh, so it wasn\'t him he was calling Gunan.

"Gunan?"

"Yes, he looked exactly like Gunan! That scrawny little kid whom your boss always brought around the hospital, Ben."

Linfeng narrowed his eyes. He looked down at the picture on the screen of his phone.

He was reading an article with Guan Gao Huan\'s picture posted in it. The man was smiling at the camera while shaking hands with one of the investors he brought in to Guan Empire.

Gunan....?

Something inside Linfeng stirred.

It was as if the millions of cells coursing within his body was slowly being stirred to life. His senses were suddenly magnified.

His instincts were telling him to probe more.

"...Doctor Ben\'s boss?" Linfeng muttered. Doctor Ben\'s boss means a man related to Guan Gao Huan or the person who brought the fake Guan Gao Huan.

Linfeng\'s eyes shined. He felt like he touched the surface of the hidden truth. "Can you tell me who is my boss? Can you describe him for me? And where did this kid come from?"

Unexpectedly, the old man cried loudly. "Ben! I told you not to accept dirty money! See what happened to you! Why won\'t you listen to your father?"

Linfeng\'s heart thumped. "What exactly happened, father?"

However, after crying for a while, the old man held Linfeng\'s hand and sniffled. "I brought your favorite pie. Here, eat some. It will be good after taking your exams." The old man then looked left and right tremblingly. "Ah! Where\'s the pie? I know I brought it here! Your mother cooked that for you. It\'s your favorite beef and potato filling..."

The wizened voice droned on, calling Linfeng his son \'Ben\' again and again.

Linfeng was disappointed in his heart. He tried to probe again and showed the picture of Guan Gao Huan to the old man.

"You called him Gunan. Who exactly is this Gunan?"

The old man looked at the picture confusedly. "Gunan? Is that your friend? You better finish off studying before going out drinking with your friends!"

Linfeng smiled patiently. He tried to probe again but the old man seemed to not remember it anymore. Finally, after trying multiple times, he received a message from his men.

They found something.

****

The night had already come, making the city lights look like a psychedelic sea of stars.

Linfeng came out of the bathroom wearing a black bathrobe that was loosely tied on his waist. Droplets of water fell from his wet black hair down to the side of his face and to his neck, rolling to his strong c.h.e.s.t.

His face looked indifferent. Without turning on the lights, he went to the kitchen and took a bottle of wine and a wine glass. He brought it to the couch and sat down, facing the full scenery of the city lights through the floor-to-ceiling windows.

While sipping the mellow wine and inhaling the fragrance, Linfeng\'s thoughts ran deep.

He already have some suspicion, but he was still surprised when he found out the truth.

His hand reached out to the file which his men found in the old man\'s unit. After ensuring that nothing else was missed, his subordinates made a copy and left the original to where Doctor James hid it in the nursing home.

Linfeng opened the file.

He looked at the picture of a thin child again.

Linfeng took out another picture.

It was picture of a young child with chubby cheeks and warm brown eyes.

The two children resembled each other. If the scrawny child was taken cared for, he would look exactly like the child in the latter picture, except for the pupils that looked so light and shimmering like the lightest hazel that they appeared as if they were golden.

Linfeng took another sip of his wine again, before flipping to another picture.

The third picture was of a child lying on the hospital bed in a coma, while the scrawny child sat beside him studying with a dull face. The picture seemed to have been taken discreetly.

The fake one and the real one...

Linfeng\'s eyes almost bore a hole on the scrawny child\'s face.

This child who seemed to have suffered a lot was none other than the Guan Gao Huan right now.

He remembered the old man\'s words.

There was not much information about where this scrawny child came from, but for him to have this kind of semblance to Guan Gao Huan and to also have a DNA match...

Linfeng drank his wine again, a complicated mix of emotions brewing in his c.h.e.s.t.

Answers were found, but more questions surfaced.

However, this was enough for now....

He could start investigating more and find out Guan Gao Huan\'s true identity through this new lead.

Ming Zhi Yi had used a different name here, but Linfeng was confident that he could find out more if he was given more time.

He must keep absolute secrecy with his movements to ensure that the other would not be alarmed into hiding his feathers.

[Ring. Ring.]

His phone rang, disrupting his thoughts.

Picking up the phone, Linfeng smiled, seeing his girlfriend\'s name on the phone.

"Zhi\'er, how are you?"

"Linfeng, just when are you coming back?" There was a hint a sulking in the woman\'s voice.
