Chapter 505: Yexin's Cousin

Chen Yang isn't the old master Chen; he has no authority to transfer Zeng Jing from Xingcheng Women's Prison.

Moreover, the grudge between Yexin and Zeng Jing is Yexin's fault.

Bullying people when they were kids is forgivable, but growing up and still sabotaging their romance.

This meddling is a bit too over the top!

However, no matter how bad Yexin's past image is, Chen Yang cannot stand by and do nothing.

He took out his phone and called Chen Bing again.

"Brother Bing, is Zeng Jing single now?"

"What's it to you if she's single? You wouldn't be trying to pull a handsome guy scheme on Yexin, would you?"

"What are you thinking……, I'm already married! I just heard that Zeng Jing once dated Yexin's cousin, and later they were broken up."

"Could it be that Yexin was the one who broke them up?"

"Yeah!"

"Damn! I said I talked to her on the phone today, why does it always feel like she's throwing barbs? Turns out there's this..."

"Brother Bing, the one who untie the bell must be the one who tied it—can you find Yexin's cousin?"

"Have Yexin's cousin do some ideological work on Zeng Jing? I think it's a bit tough! I heard that kid fell out with his family a few years ago and then vanished from Xingcheng's second-generation circle."

"Brother Bing, think of a way. If you can't find him, I'll be even worse off here."

"Alright! I'll do my best to help you find someone; I can't guarantee I'll find him."

"Okay, thanks Brother Bing! I'll treat you to drinks later!"

After Chen Yang finished his call with Chen Bing, he also called Huang Bai Ming and Zhao Fei Yang, asking them to use their connections to look for Yexin's cousin.

After hanging up, Chen Yang asked Shen Anna: "Anna sis, are you hungry? I'll make you something to eat."

Shen Anna shook her head, then lay on the sofa and started spacing out.

Chen Yang felt a bit sorry for her, so he went into the kitchen and made a few small dishes Shen Anna likes. Then he took out a bottle of Moutai and two wine glasses from the liquor cabinet.

"Anna sis, if you're feeling upset, drink some wine—one drink solves a thousand worries!"

Shen Anna glanced at Chen Yang and softly asked: "Will you drink with me?"

Chen Yang nodded, then filled both glasses to the brim and handed one to Shen Anna.

Shen Anna picked up her glass and drank it all in one go, then, without changing her expression, signaled Chen Yang to pour another.

Chen Yang didn't expect her alcohol tolerance to be so good; he quickly poured another glass.

Shen Anna drank it all in one go again.

Chen Yang poured another glass again.

Shen Anna still drank it all in one go.

Chen Yang's original intention was to get Shen Anna drunk so she could sleep well and temporarily forget about Yexin's matter. Seeing her drink so heavily, he suddenly worried something might go wrong.

"Anna sis, drinking on an empty stomach is bad for your health; eat some dishes first!"

Shen Anna stared blankly at Chen Yang, her brows furrowed tightly: "Boss, why aren't you drinking?"

Chen Yang immediately picked up his glass and took a small sip.

Shen Anna saw that and said displeased: "No, you also have to drink three glasses!"

Chen Yang knows his alcohol tolerance is poor; he's clear that after three glasses he might not be able to walk home steadily. He immediately said: "Anna sis, we're drinking just to relieve boredom; there's no need to drink so heavily. You eat some dishes first..."

"No, you must drink three glasses." Shen Anna kept staring at Chen Yang blankly.

Chen Yang helplessly drank the remaining wine in his glass in one go. After the wine went down, he quickly used his chopsticks to pick up some vegetables.

Meanwhile, Shen Anna picked up the Moutai bottle and refilled Chen Yang's glass, then continued urging him to drink.

After drinking those three glasses, Chen Yang hadn't even waited for Shen Anna to get drunk before he himself collapsed first.

The next morning when he woke up, Chen Yang found himself lying on Shen Anna's sofa, covered with a silk quilt that smelled of women's perfume.

He hurriedly lifted the quilt, saw that his clothes were all intact, and breathed a sigh of relief.

If something really had happened after drinking, that would truly be disastrous!

On the tea table beside the sofa lay a sticky note from Shen Anna, saying she had gone to work and asking Chen Yang to focus on handling Yexin's matter.

Chen Yang checked his phone, saw there were no missed calls, then pulled the quilt over himself again and went back to sleep.

He slept straight through until two in the afternoon, when Chen Bing's phone call woke him from his dream.

"Chen Yang, Yexin's cousin has been found. You definitely wouldn't guess—he's been living in Jiangmen Town these past few years."

"Jiangmen Town?" Chen Yang was a bit dazed. Although the scenery around Jiangmen Town is nice, its economic foundation has always been weak, with hardly any decent factories; the town's biggest source of income is the vegetable greenhouse project cooperating with the local agricultural products trading company.

The other end of the line, Chen Bing added: "I heard he contracted a vegetable greenhouse base and is growing vegetables there. You should be able to find common ground with him."

Chen Yang asked Chen Bing for the other party's information, then called Yuan Wei, the Party Committee Secretary of Jiangmen Town.

"Secretary Yuan, does our town have someone named Wang Haibo who's running a vegetable greenhouse base?"

"President Chen, Wang Haibo is a planting expert in our town. His vegetable greenhouse output has always been the highest in the town."

Chen Yang asked Yuan Wei for Wang Haibo's address, then returned home, washed up, changed clothes. After tidying up, he drove to the destination.

On the way, Chen Yang suddenly thought of something and immediately called Shen Anna.

"Anna sis, in our vegetable greenhouse cooperation project in Jiangmen Town, is there someone named Wang Haibo?"

Shen Anna told Chen Yang to wait a moment; about five minutes later she replied: "There is such a person. According to our statistics, his vegetable quality has always been the best in Jiangmen Town. … Wait, his name is Wang Haibo? Yexin's cousin???"

"Yes, I'm on my way to meet him right now."

"Send me the address on my phone; I'll come over right away!"

Chen Yang knew Shen Anna wouldn't be satisfied unless she saw Wang Haibo herself, so he sent her the address he'd obtained via text message.

About twenty minutes later, he successfully arrived at the main base of the vegetable greenhouse project in Jiangmen Town.

According to the information provided by Yuan Wei, he quickly found the vegetable greenhouse base contracted by Wang Haibo.

When he entered the base, Wang Haibo was picking mature cucumbers.

Chen Yang carefully sized him up, 1.75 meters tall, a bit taller than Zeng Jing. Because of long-term exposure to the sun, his skin was dark and glossy. He didn't look at all like a second-generation official raised with a silver spoon.

"Hello, I'm Chen Yang from the Commoners' Agricultural Products Trading Company." Chen Yang stepped forward and greeted Wang Haibo.

He thought Chen Yang had come to collect the vegetables. He smiled and said, "Boss Chen, our cucumbers haven't been picked yet. Once they're packed, we'll send them directly to your company."

Chen Yang sighed. He believed that if Yexin knew how Wang Haibo had ended up like this, she would also feel guilty about her impulsive actions back then.

He said to Wang Haibo, "Hello, I'm Yexin's friend. Can we talk?"
