Chapter 23: The Needle In The Haystack

[POV Hu Qiang]

Last night it was eternally beautiful to watch both the mother and son sleeping so tight and carefree. I was tempted to sleep with them on the same bed but I dropped the idea as I realised that Bai Chang was still subconsciously alert to any sign of danger or noise and she would wake up. After stealing a light peck from her, I invited myself to the guest room.

While at the breakfast table, an undeniable show of emotions from her became the fierce wind to my already raging emotions. I wanted to stick to her like a piece of gum.

At that moment I even wanted to be my son so that I can hug and sleep with her at night.

I even followed her to the study room but who would have thought that my own son is much faster than me; he even got to kiss his mother's cheeks while totally avoiding his father's laments.

I think the father and son need to sit down and talk to win over Bai Chang fast.

While I was lost in my thoughts I looked at her habitually.

She looked surprised for some reasons.

[POV Bai Chang]

As I am looking through various research files and projects, I came across a few mentions of a particular secret project which is spearheaded by various organisations around the world.

There were a lot of people with major or minor stakes in the project but what caught my eyes is the fact that Bai Chang's parents designed the project while she was a toddler.

I search for this project. While I searched I realised that majority of the data is stored off the clouds on external encrypted storage or as analogue files.

I carefully read through these few digital data that are available, as I keep on reading I realise that this very project will be the foundation to Star Time System in future. This highly surprised me.

There were a lot of thoughts going around in my mind.

'I need to reorganize my search filters and targets. If what I am thinking is correct maybe... just maybe my movements here could affect the future that I come from, my actions could very well diagnose the significant drawbacks of this Star Time Project that translated to a catastrophic disaster, bringing our civilization to the brink of extinction.'

I am lost in my thoughts and brought back to earth by Qiang's voice "Bai Chang"

"Huh"

"What's the matter?"

I am seriously considering should I tell him the truth or should I deal with it myself.

It may seem far-fetched but there is a big chance that this is related to the history of Star Time System, any action taken would affect the future that I came from while exploring it might give me a clear picture of Bai Chang's involvement in all this and what is the exact contribution of Bai Chang's parents in this project?

I'm so lost in my thoughts that I didn't realise it that Qiang is still standing in front of me waiting for a reply.

His voice broke my reverie.

"Is something of matter?"

"There is but I want to confirm it by myself first."

"You need something?" he asks naturally while not pursuing the actual matter.

"My parents, I want to know more about them. Whatever you know and whatever your parents know, but keeps it from us."

"Are you sure?"

"I think it's time to get to the bottom of this matter and solve it once and for all."

"Fine, should I call them immediately?"

"No need I still need to prepare something from my side before I unravel the Pandora's Box."

"Why call it Pandora's box?"

"Because it is one, trust me."

"Should I take any additional actions?"

"Not yet," I thought for some time and asked him "How are those fishes in our company? It's almost time to harvest them."

Looking at his smirk I know he understood my subtext.

It is time to cut off these spies from the company and warn the respective authorities backing them. After all, the Hu family waited for three years to take any actions. This time the retaliation is to announce that the hurt tiger is preparing to hunt soon so they should prepare their vaults to shell out the requisite compensations.

Hu Qiang got back to his work while I took out my notepad to make a new To-Do-List.

To-Do-List

1. Set up an advanced medical unit ASAP.

2. Track this Star Time Project

3. Search for anything related to Bai Chang's parents.

4. Keep an eye out for Feling

5. Prepare bespoke pieces for Winter clothing line collection

I keep on thinking while I scribbled on the notepad, after some time or long period of time (honestly I just lost my bearings for the time being) I made an organised flowchart of various details.
