Xinghe was surprised. "You found out so much?"
Mubai nodded. "Yes, I happen to have some friends in Country R; it's easier for them to find out things from the inside compared to us. According to them, the He Lan family has a good reputation in Country R and is a very big family. However, they have always kept a low profile, so they are known only to their fellow countrymen."
"Therefore, it will be difficult for us to investigate them," Xinghe concluded.
"Indeed, even Country R's media doesn't report much about them since they don't do much in the public eye. It will be difficult for us to find out more about them."
"Why don't I personally go pay them a visit? It will be incredibly difficult to investigate them without close contact," Xinghe said firmly. "I'll go on behalf of the Shen family; that reason should be official enough."
Mubai's first response was to deny her request. "How can you go alone? I will not let you do that."
