After he hung up the phone, Jian Yuncheng sat quietly in the car for a while.

After a moment, he called his father to tell him the good news.

Despite the fact that the operation wasn’t yet confirmed, there was still at least some hope.

For the Jian family, having some hope was better than having none.

Once Jian Shuxing heard this news, he was incredibly happy.

“If Hong Baizhang can’t get in touch with the other party, I’ll go to the Old Jian Residence and ask my father to contact the other party.”

Compared to the younger generation, Grandpa Jian had many more connections. He might find a way if they were unable to.

Either way, it was crucial for the other party to agree to the surgical operation.

“I understand. I still have something to deal with. I’ll talk to you later.”

Jian Yuncheng hadn’t mentioned what he had found out to Jian Shuxing and Wen Nuan yet.

He planned to tell them once he found definitive evidence.

After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Jian Yuncheng continued to drive all the way to Heyunshan Resort.

Once he got there, Jian Yuncheng found the manager of the hotel.

“Young Master Yuncheng, I don’t have what you’re looking for! It’s not that our hotel doesn’t want to help you, it’s that we can’t!”

The manager of the hotel began to get frustrated.

What the hell was the situation? Why were people constantly asking him for the surveillance video? In particular, for the surveillance to the stairs at the entrance?

Last time, Master Sheng had asked the CEO of the group behind the resort for the video. And the CEO had ordered him to deal with the matter.

He had already answered Young Master Yuncheng’s queries on the phone. However, he hadn’t expected him to turn up!

Wasn’t Young Master Yuncheng meant to be quite busy right now? The game that his company had developed was quite popular right now.

“If you can’t find the surveillance, arrange for the person who is in charge of the surveillance to come over.”

Jian Yuncheng sat down on the sofa in the reception room. He appeared dignified and cold.

All of a sudden, the manager of the hotel felt that he had become much shorter.

The manager felt as though he had lost on all fronts. In aura and in manner.

“This…” the manager stuttered.

“Is there something you can’t tell me?” Jian Yuncheng asked. His eyes were frightfully cold.

“No, that’s not it Young Master Yuncheng. You’re just making the situation incredibly difficult for us.”

“Do you think I came here today to have an idle chat with you?”

When the manager saw that Jian Yuncheng was unwilling to listen to him, he got angry all of a sudden.

“No, Young Master Yuncheng. I know that your family is powerful in Hengyuan City. However, I’ll have you know that our hotel is also quite well known. Our group has resorts all over the country. When it comes to strength and support, I don’t think we’re worse off.”

When Jian Yuncheng heard this, he glanced at the manager for a moment before he took out his phone to send a message.

Very quickly, the manager’s cell phone rang.

The manager’s expression changed the moment he saw the caller’s ID.

In his shock, he fumbled before answering the phone.

After he talked briefly with the person on the other end, the manager nodded several times in rapid succession.

“Yes, yes. I understand. I will manage the situation. I promise.”

The other party hung up the phone. Immediately, the manager turned around to apologize to Jian Yuncheng, “I’m so sorry, Young Master Yuncheng. I’ll find you the person you want right away!”

The manager finally recognized the situation. He couldn’t brush off the matter anymore! He had to actively deal with the situation.

He didn’t dare to make Jian Yuncheng wait for too long. Quickly, he brought over the person who was in charge of video surveillance.

At the same time, he also brought over the surveillance recordings of the intersections that were close to the incident.

After pausing for a moment, he immediately played the recordings to Jian Yuncheng.
