Chapter 794

“Wait.”

However, it seemed like this time, Ding Fei really did have something with her.

She carefully opened her bag and took out an envelope to pass it to Ning Ran.

Ning Ran reached out for it, but Ding Fei soon retracted her hand.

“You have to promise to help me.”

“I told you I'll only consider accepting your request after I find the USB with your clue.”

“But you haven't even asked me what my request is, so how are you going to help me?”

“Frankly, I don't want to help you at all. It doesn't matter what you say because I won't do it. So, if you want me to help you, you have to wait until your clue proves to be useful before I start considering your request.”

Ning Ran was insistent, and there was nothing Ding Fei could say to change her mind. Hence, Ding Fei had no choice but to hand the envelope to Ning Ran.

When Ning Ran opened it, she realized a stack of photos was in it.

The photos must have been taken by a cell phone a few years ago, for the quality of the photos was not great, but she could still make out what was in the photos.

In the photos was a middle-aged woman dressed averagely. She was not dressed to the nines, but she was not disheveled either.

Ning Ran stared at her for a while, feeling a sense of familiarity. She presumed that she had seen the middle-aged woman somewhere before.

Upon combing through her memories, Ning Ran realized the woman must be one of her mother's friends. She somewhat recalled having a meal with the woman back when her mother brought her out to play.

Still, Ning Ran could not remember what the woman's name was. After all, Ning Ran had been but a young child at that time, and the woman didn't meet up often with her mother. Clearly, her mother and that woman weren't very close.

“Do you know who she is?” Ding Fei asked.

“I don't, but do you?”

“I don't either. But she came to your mother's ward several times when your mother was hospitalized, and they always talked for a long time. I once eavesdropped on them from outside, and I think I heard your mother passing something to her. Your mother asked her to keep it safe. Later on, my mother and I tried to look for her, but our efforts were in vain. I'm guessing that your mother probably gave her that USB,” Ding Fei uttered.

While Ding Fei spoke, Ning Ran kept a close eye on her face, trying to figure out whether or not Ding Fei was lying again.

“You don't need to look at me like this. I'm telling the truth this time. As long as you find this person, you'll have a clue about the whereabouts of the USB. Now, isn't it your turn to listen to the details of my request?”

“I won't. I'm not interested,” Ning Ran declined instantly.

“This is something beneficial for you. You can reap a massive profit from this.”

“We'll talk again if your clue turns out to be useful. Bye.”

“Ning Ran, listen to me—”

Alas, Ning Ran did not. She left right away.

On her way back, Ning Ran switched on the lights in the car and studied the photos again, making sure that she had really seen the woman before.

“Madam, I'll look into it. We'll find out soon,” said Qiao Zhan, who was driving.

“Good. I was about to ask for your help. I'll leave this to you, then.”

“Keep these photos. I'll use my phone to take photos of them and ask my friend to look into them.”

“Okay, thank you.”

The next afternoon, Ning Ran dolled herself up before going to Nanshi Corporation's headquarters with the two children.

Ning Ran rarely went there, for that was Nan Chen's office, and she did not want to disturb Nan Chen when he was working.

However, it was not her decision to go there that day. Nan Chen was the one who asked her to bring the children there and wait for him to finish work. Then, they would head to Commoner Residence for a meal.

Both Ning Ran and Dabao were quietly waiting in Nan Chen's office. Erbao, on the other hand, had run off.

Even though Ning Ran had told her not to wander everywhere and disturb others, Erbao was not one to sit still.

Ning Ran had only been distracted for a minute, and Erbao was already gone from the office.

Furthermore, due to Erbao's adorable looks, she would garner attention wherever she went. Chaos erupted in every department she went to.

A group of employees would crowd around her, wanting to talk to her.

Erbao was a chatterbox and had a friendly nature, so she enjoyed chatting with them.

Hence, in no time, all the employees gifted Erbao their chocolates and tasty snacks in exchange for her charming smile.

Ning Ran watched as Erbao continued bringing snacks back to the office and piling them up on the desk before she finally spoke up. “How many things did you trick them into giving you? Can you even finish them all?”

Erbao looked at Ning Ran with wide, dark eyes, and muttered innocently, “I didn't trick them. They gave them to me of their own accord.”

“Still, you can't just take them. It's as if you were robbing them!” Ning Ran chided.

“They insisted! They kept persuading me to take the snacks even though I rejected them. They even claimed I rejected them because I disliked the snacks...” Erbao mumbled with her face scrunched up in aggrievement.

Ning Ran was aware that the employees were genuinely fond of Erbao, and it was only natural they would want to pamper the little girl and curry favor with her when they knew Erbao was their employer's precious little princess.

Therefore, even if Erbao were to ask for something more expensive, they would still give it to her, let alone snacks.

“Come here,” Ning Ran said, beckoning to Erbao.
