Chapter 176 Heterochromatic Pupils
Feng Muyang looked at him coldly, his eyes revealing unquestionable majesty. He spoke slowly, his voice low and powerful: "Wu Chenzi, do you think the Zhai family can protect you forever? I tell you, this matter is much bigger than you think. If you don't cooperate, I guarantee that you will regret it."
Wu Chenzi was intimidated by Feng Muyang's momentum, but he still gritted his teeth and refused to give in.
However, Feng Muyang was not a patient person. Seeing that the other party was not moved by soft or hard tactics, he ordered his men to use force on Wu Chenzi. His men mercilessly pulled out Wu Chenzi's fingernails, and the severe pain from his ten fingers to his heart almost made Wu Chenzi faint. In the face of endless pain and fear, he finally collapsed and told Feng Muyang everything he knew without reservation.
Feng Muyang immediately called Xiao Lan and asked Wu Chenzi to repeat what he had just said. On the other end of the phone, Xiao Lan listened quietly. When she heard the words "pupil color change surgery", she couldn't help but feel an inexplicable doubt in her heart. She tried hard to digest this information and gradually understood why Zhai Xingchen had to go to the hospital for regular checkups.
After a moment's silence, Xiao Lan asked, "Wu Chenzi, tell me, did Zhai Xingchen ever say why he wanted to have this operation? Also, what was his original pupil color?" Her voice was calm and firm, revealing unquestionable majesty.
Wu Chenzi quickly defended himself, "You know Master Zhai's personality. He is a man of few words. We didn't have much communication. As for the original color of his pupils, I really can't remember it clearly. After all, it has been too long."
Xiao Lan frowned unhappily when she heard this, and a hint of coldness was revealed in her voice: "Doctor Wu, since you have already opened your mouth, don't plan to only say half of it. Our Xiao family is not that easy to fool."
Feng Muyang also saw the guilty look on Wu Chenzi's face. He waved to his men, pretending to continue the previous cruel method. Wu Chenzi was immediately frightened and exclaimed: "Wait, wait! I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"
Feng Muyang then waved away the men who came forward and said coldly: "Then tell me everything, don't hide anything!"
Wu Chenzi swallowed his saliva and spoke carefully, "What I said before was the truth. Master Zhai rarely spoke to me. Every time he came, he simply told me to watch my mouth and not to talk too much." He looked at Feng Muyang opposite with a frank look, and seeing that the other party still had no expression, he continued, "As for the initial color of the pupil, I vaguely remember that Master Zhai's right eye was golden brown. This color is indeed rare, so I have a deep impression."
When Xiao Lan heard about this color, she seemed to have realized something. But she did not continue to ask, but decisively hung up the phone. She turned to consult her doctor about the issue of pupil color, and learned that this color is 99% caused by genetic reasons. Thinking of Zhai Yijing's dark pupils, an idea flashed in her mind, and she immediately sent someone to carefully inquire about the information about Zhai Lin and Shen Xi's pupil colors.
After days of in-depth investigation, Xiao Lan looked through a lot of information and even used some of her own personal channels, but the results made her nervous and excited. She carefully checked the medical records of Shen Xi and Zhai Lin, especially those related to eye surgery, but surprisingly, she did not find any records of pupil surgery for the two.
This made her start to wonder if there was any omission in her investigation, after all, such a thing could not be easily missed. However, on the other hand, she felt a little excited because it seemed to mean that things were moving in the direction she hoped.
Recently, Zhai Xingchen's room is always locked, as if there is some unspeakable secret hidden in it. He does all the cleaning work in the room by himself, and replaces the garbage very diligently. This strict and guarded attitude makes outsiders have to suspect that Zhai Xingchen may be hiding some important information. However, there is a reason for all this. At first, it was because Han Xin took the initiative to cancel the engagement, which gave him an ominous premonition. Then, when his subordinates told him that they had lost Wu Chenzi, the feeling of uneasiness became even stronger.
Xiao Lan came to Zhai's house almost every day after class this week, trying to find the right time to enter Zhai Xingchen's room. However, she failed every time. This made her feel very frustrated, and she even began to doubt whether she could really verify her guess successfully. Lu Qingxi saw her anxiety and frustration, and decided to help her find a solution.
Lu Qingxi has been discussing countermeasures with Xiaoliu these days. She knows very well that Zhai Xingchen has special feelings for her. From his attitude towards her, the paintings he drew for her, and the fact that he chose to wait outside the school clinic with everyone else to wait for her to recover after she and Han Xin got into trouble, Lu Qingxi can deeply feel his love for her. She thought that maybe she could use this to get close to Zhai Xingchen's room and find out the secrets he was hiding.
However, Lu Qingxi was also very confused about how to implement it. She knew that doing so would be somewhat unfriendly to Zhai Xingchen, but in order to uncover the truth and to help Xiao Lan, she felt that she could take a risk.
On Sunday night two weeks before the final exam, Lu Qingxi went downstairs to get some water because she was thirsty in the middle of the night. But when she went downstairs to drink water, she bumped into Zhai Xingchen who was walking down the stairs. The moment she looked up, she felt the burning gaze on her body disappear. She noticed that Zhai Xingchen was holding a mobile phone in his hand and seemed to be looking at it very attentively. However, the careful Lu Qingxi still found a clue - the camera of the mobile phone was facing downwards.
She did not choose to expose him, but chose to enter the elevator. But then, she thought of something, and her finger just left the button for the fourth floor, and within a second, it was on the button for the second floor and pressed it. She decided to take advantage of Zhai Xingchen's time to go to his room. At this time, he should not lock the door.
The elevator slowly stopped at the second floor, and the door opened gently, making an almost inaudible sound. Lu Qingxi walked out of the elevator quickly with small steps and walked towards Zhai Xingchen's room. Her heartbeat gradually accelerated, as if an invisible hand was holding her heart tightly.
When she reached Zhai Xingchen's door, Lu Qingxi was relieved to find that it was indeed unlocked. She carefully pushed the door open and walked in. The room was silent, as if even the air had frozen.
Lu Qingxi began to look for clues with a nervous mood. She gently lifted a corner of the quilt, and then lifted the pillow, but to her disappointment, there was nothing on the bed, not even a strand of hair.
Unwilling to give up, Lu Qingxi decided to move to another location. She walked to the washroom. The washroom was clean and tidy, as if no one had ever used it. Lu Qingxi carefully checked every corner and even looked at the trash can, but still couldn't find any hair.
She felt a little frustrated and didn't know what to do next. However, she didn't realize that during her search for Zhai Xingchen's hair, Zhai Xingchen had been watching her through the surveillance on his mobile phone.
Zhai Xingchen had sensed something was wrong since he hadn't been able to contact Wu Chenzi. The people he had sent to Canada couldn't find Wu Chenzi no matter how hard they tried, which made him more certain that something was not going on. He had been avoiding Xiao Lan for the past few days, fearing that she would notice something.
