Chapter 493: Chapter 494: The Unsolved Mystery of the Entertainment Industry
Gu Qichen closed his eyes.
At this moment, Fang Zhengdong came over.
Fang Zhengdong was delivering work materials.
Over the past few years, Fang Zhengdong often saw Gu Qichen in this state.
With his icy, desolate look, he was most likely thinking about Miss Xia.
Fang Zhengdong set down the files, and asked with concern, “Mr. President, are you alright?”
Only then did Gu Qichen snap back to reality, sitting up.
He glanced at Fang Zhengdong, “Is the material for the meeting prepared?”
“It’s all set, Mr. President. Please review it.”
Gu Qichen was not in the mood to work now, not even sparing it a glance.
He suddenly looked up at Fang Zhengdong and said, “Look up the owner of a car for me.”
Fang Zhengdong stood respectfully there, waiting for the next instruction.
“It’s a white Volkswagen Golf, it should be an old Golf 7 model.”
After saying that, Gu Qichen did not speak anymore.
However, Fang Zhengdong was still standing there, somewhat unsure, “Mr. President, do you remember the license plate number?”
Gu Qichen just gave him a cold glance, “If I remembered the license plate number, would I need you to look it up?”
This was also the reason why Gu Qichen was frustrated.
His thoughts were all over the place back then.
Afterward, when the car got blocked, he didn’t manage to catch the license plate number of that car.
Fang Zhengdong maintained a neutral expression, but mentally lamented his predicament.
The president had thrown another nearly impossible task at him.
A white Volkswagen, that was the only information he had.
There were thousands upon thousands of people who drove a white Volkswagen Golf in Manhattan.
How was he supposed to find it?
Fang Zhengdong tactfully didn’t ask Gu Qichen why he ordered the car investigation.
Even just guessing, he knew it must have been because he saw a face resembling Miss Xia’s.
Over the past four years, things like this happened almost every other day.
Out of the blue, he’d be given an impossible task.
Sometimes when he was unable to investigate, he inevitably got scolded by Gu Qichen.
But if he did manage to find something, that was even worse.
As long as the person wasn’t Miss Xia.
The President’s reaction, it seemed like he could eat him.
Fang Zhengdong being able to hold up until now was entirely based on his persistence.
Fang Zhengdong spoke up, “Mr. President, I’ll do my best.”
“Forget it, don’t investigate.” Gu Qichen interjected.
Then he leaned back against the couch.
His expression was one of great disappointment.
He knew that he was just making life difficult for Fang Zhengdong.
Even if that person really was Xia Yangyang, with Manhattan’s population of two million, it was like finding a needle in a haystack.
Besides, he wasn’t even sure.
Over the years, there had been too many false alarms.
Those women with the same names, those with similar appearances.
Gu Qichen had sought out so many people.
He felt like he couldn’t hold on much longer.
Fang Zhengdong just stood there.
He knew the president was in pain now, but he didn’t know how to comfort him.
He knew a bit about what had happened those years.
Miss Xia’s sudden overnight disappearance became a major topic for the media.
She was originally an entertainer.
Later on, the film “Future” Miss Xia acted in was nominated for an Oscar.
Xia Yangyang’s name became well-known by many more people.
But at that time, Xia Yangyang had already been missing for several months.
Those few months basically created countless explosive news for the entertainment circle.
Until now, the disappearance of the former young film actress Xia Yangyang was one of the eight unsolved mysteries of the domestic entertainment circle.
There were many rumors outside.
Some said that she was driven out of the house and blacklisted by the Gu Family after divorcing Gu Qichen.
Others said she was kidnapped and killed.
Other theories suggested that she married a foreign tycoon, and she was unfaithful in the marriage, which is why she divorced Gu Qichen.
