Chapter 124 On the run
Chapter 124 On the run
"It seems that Chairman Xie really loves you, and you love Chairman Xie very much too."
Upon hearing the satisfactory answer, Xie Ling finally raised her chin, feeling a sense of relief.
"And my birthday gift next year will definitely be very lavish, because this may be my last birthday at home."
Without thinking much, Wen Yao packed her things and asked...
"Why? Do you want to start your own business after you become an adult?"
"How could that be? I wish I could stay at the Xie Mansion forever, because I'll be an adult next year. In Lingyu, you can get married at eighteen. My dad should arrange a very good man for me."
Upon hearing this, Wen Yao took a deep breath.
She reflected on herself and realized that trying to please others could never earn her love.
If he loved her, he would have Xie Ling learn English, send her to university abroad like Xie Huai, and put her in the Star Moon Society for training.
"Xie Ling, if you don't want to get married then, you can come to Dragon Kingdom to find me."
Wen Yao didn't want to say too much; if she did, Xie Ling would definitely get angry.
"Why wouldn't I want to get married? My dad always thinks the best is the one he'll arrange for me!"
She was indeed a little annoyed again, and Xie Ling stormed out of Wen Yao's room.
Wen Yao had many thoughts tonight and it took her a long time to fall asleep.
Before dawn the next day, Wen Yao got up and returned to the Dragon Kingdom with Song Zhiqian.
"Phew~ I can finally go back to China."
Wen Yao also felt completely relaxed.
However, two hours later, the two finally landed at Haicheng Airport.
The two of them huddled together.
"It's so cold, Wen Yao, I'm so cold, I need to go buy some clothes."
The two went straight to a clothing store in the airport and each picked out a down jacket to keep warm.
It was around 10 a.m., but neither Lu Shan nor Lu Zhengran had gone to work at the Lu residence, and the two were extremely anxious.
Chen Shuhua frowned, but managed to remain rational.
"Still haven't been able to contact Yao Yao?"
Lu Zhengran shook his head
"No, I also called Jiang Han, and he said he hasn't seen Yao Yao in a while, and he's also helping to look for her."
Not only Jiang Han, but also Fang Li, are searching for Wen Yao's whereabouts.
The last thing Lu Shan found about Wen Yao was that she went to Lingyu last month and there has been no news of her since.
They went to Wen Yao's house several times, but Ji Chu kept saying that she hadn't come back.
Tang Zhen knew about Wen Yao's plan, so when someone asked her about Wen Yao's whereabouts, she always replied that she didn't know.
"I think I should go to Lingyu. They're having a civil war there, and I'm worried about Yaoyao."
Lu Shan stood up, ready to go directly to Lingyu right now.
Mei Qing, however, shouted.
"Brother, you clearly know that Lingyu is in the civil war, so why did you still go? Wen Yao is a grown woman, she'll be fine."
My Qingxue is back safe and sound. Wen Yao, as the older sister, is definitely more capable than her younger sister.
Mei Qing felt smug and pleased with herself, seeing the anxious looks on the eldest son's family's faces.
It was the eldest son's family that drove her daughter abroad back then. Now her daughter has returned, but Wen Yao has died in Lingyu.
Lu Shan stopped and looked at Mei Qing with a scrutinizing gaze.
Because of Mei Qing's words, he now suspects Mei Qing.
"Mei Qing, who have you been in contact with recently?"
Lu Shan hated rambling and cut to the chase, and this sentence sent a chill down Mei Qing's spine.
"Brother, what do you mean by that? Do I have to report to you who I've associated with? I'm not your employee."
Mei Qing's tone was no longer as arrogant as before; she seemed deflated, but was still putting on a brave face.
Lu Shan didn't say anything more to her and directly called his assistant.
"Help me check who Mrs. Lu has recently transferred money to."
Mei Qing was suddenly dumbfounded.
"Brother, didn't you say you were going to find Wen Yao? How come you're checking my remittance records?"
Lu Qingxue was just casually playing on her phone when she heard Lu Shan say he wanted to investigate her mother, and she immediately came to her senses.
"Uncle, aren't you invading my mother's privacy? Does my mother have to report everything she does to you?"
Lu Shan sat back down on the sofa. Seeing the mother and daughter's reaction, he felt that the matter was almost certain.
Wen Yao is very likely in danger.
"Hmph, if they really find nothing, then I'll apologize for my invasion of privacy."
It seems there's no turning back now.
Lu Zhengran immediately understood his father's thoughts and looked at Mei Qing in disbelief.
"I...I gave birth to a daughter for your Lu family and raised Qingxue with great difficulty, but this is how you treat my daughter and me. You either drive Qingxue away or try to humiliate me. Fine, I don't want to stay in your Lu family anymore!"
They were crying and sniffling, making it seem like it was real.
After saying that, he planned to pull Lu Qingxue away, hoping to escape before they found out anything.
I never imagined that she and her daughter would be on the run so soon.
But unexpectedly, Lu Shan gave an order.
"Stop her!"
Lu Zhengran stood in front of the door.
"you!"
"Sister-in-law, you cannot leave this room until the results are in."
Lu Shan's voice was authoritative, leaving no room for her to refute.
Chen Shuhua also anticipated something.
"Sister-in-law, just sit on the sofa and relax. Don't think about running abroad every time something happens. Qingxue just came back. How long do you plan to run away with her?"
Chen Shuhua used to be a member of an arts troupe in the military, and when he turned on you, it was a sight to behold.
Just then, my assistant sent me a WeChat message.
It's a screenshot of a remittance.
Lu Shan read through each line carefully, not wanting to miss a single piece of information.
Not long after, I saw an overseas remittance of ten million, and the remittance destination was Lingyu.
"Mei Qing! You still have something to say now!"
Lu Shan stood up from the sofa and angrily threw her phone in front of her.
This was the first time she had ever seen Lu Shan angry, and she trembled instantly.
"Big brother... I, I just bought a bracelet."
"Where's your bracelet?!"
Chen Shuhua picked up her phone from the ground, glanced at the remittance information, and trembled with anger.
With a loud slap, a hand landed on Mei Qing's face.
This was the first time Chen Shuhua had lost his composure in front of everyone.
"mom!"
Lu Qingxue hugged her mother.
"Auntie, what right do you have to hit my mom!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Chen Shuhua slapped Lu Qingxue hard across the face.
Lu Qingxue's small body couldn't withstand the force and she rolled directly onto the floor.
The mother and daughter were both in a sorry state.
"Tell me, where is my daughter now?"
Chen Shuhua turned Mei Qing's head and forced her to look at him.
