Ming Jing led Ming Yi into the private room, finding the atmosphere inside a bit tense.
Zhu Xiangxiangâs face was pale, and seeing Ming Jing entering, she didnât have time to hide, so she appeared somewhat awkvvard and funny.
Ming Ti and Ming Chen were unconcerned, eating and drinking as usual, not taking anything to heartâ¦
Ming Jing raised her eyebrows slightly.
After dinner, everyone went back to their rooms to rest.
Ming Yi, a child of her age, needed a nap. As soon as she lay down, she fell into a deep sleep. Ming Jing tucked her blanket in and turned up the temperature in the room, ready to lie down and rest for a while.
There was a knock on the door.
Ming Jing opened the door, and Lin Qing forced a smile, saying, âMing Jing, your mother didnât want to bother you, but I have no choiceâ¦â
Ming Jing indifferently asked, âWhatâs the matter?â
For some reason, Lin Qingâs anxiety calmed down when she heard Ming Jingâs calm tone, as if she found her backbone.
âYour brother Shaodan has been missing since the last time he left home. He doesnât answer my calls, and I canât find him after sending people out. It has been half a month, and this is the first time he has been away from home for so long. Iâm afraid something might have happened to him. If we canât find him today, Iâm ready to call the police.â
âYou have many friends. Can you help me to ask around?â Lin Qing asked cautiously.
She didnât dare to treat Ming Jing with the same attitude as before. She had a vague feeling that this daughter should not be messed with.
Ming Jing thought for a moment and said, âDonât worry, Iâll help you ask around. â
Hearing the young girlâs gentle voice, Lin Qing couldnât help herself anymore, covering her mouth and trying not to cry.
She turned around immediately, âSorry for bothering you. If you hear anything about Shaodan, please let me know right away.â
With that, she left quickly.
Ming Jing sighed and called Jiang Chunlan to ask her to help inquire about Zhu Shaodanâs whereabouts.
âYour brother is missing? Did he get into another fight?â
Bai Ziyan had already returned to Jingdu, so it shouldnât be him.
âDonât worry, a grown child like him will be fine. Iâll send someone to look for him immediately, and Iâll notify you as soon as thereâs any news.â
âThank you, Madam.â
âYouâre still being polite with me? Come visit our house when you have time.â
After hanging up, Jiang Chunlan arranged for someone to look for Zhu Shaodan. With her connections in Jiangzhou, it should be easy to find someone.
âMadam, recently Young Master Zhu has been hanging around a person called Laiba. Laiba is just a small-time thug who commits petty crimes. Iâm afraid that Young Master Zhu wonât learn anything good if he continues to hang out with him.â
Jiang Chunlan had been investigating the matter with An Zhitinlan recently and asked, âWhat was Ran Tengxiaoâs purpose in meddling with An Zhitinlan last time?â
She still hadnât figured it out, as Ran Tengxiao wasnât that stupid.
âCould it be that he already suspects my identity?â
Jiang Chunlan rubbed her brow, âI really underestimated that Ran Tengxiao.â
Over the past two years, Ran Tengxiao had become adept at intrigues. Now it was not as easy to take him down as before, and moving against him would affect the whole situation. She might not even be able to leave Jiangzhou alive.
âHeâs so young, yet so formidable, not inferior to his great uncle. If we donât cut off his wings at the beginning, there will be no chance once he grows stronger.â
Jiang Chunlan sighed, âIâve already missed the best opportunity.â Zhou Xue asked, âMadam, what should we do now?
Jiang Chunlan hooked her lips and revealed a calculating smile.
âItâs okay, I still have one last trump card.â
âBy the way, has Zheng Qing been found?â
âMadam, he has been killed by Night Hawk personally. The matter with Zhao Kang has been settled, and your record can be updated accordingly.â
Jiang Chunlan smiled and said, âNight Hawk, you didnât disappoint me.â
During the half-month of hanging out with Laiba, Zhu Shaodan had gained a lot of insight and was itching for some action.
Soon, the opportunity came.
âScar, this kid is with the Second Young Master. Letâs not be impulsive.â Huang Mao held Laiba back.
The two groups were on the edge of breaking out into a fight. Zhu Shaodan tightened his grip on the stick in his hand, eager to give it a try.
At this moment, a white sedan stopped at the entrance of the alley. Qian Wei saw the car and thought it looked familiar.
The two groups stopped and looked at the car.
Men loved cars, and they could tell at a glance that it was a luxury car.
Zhu Shaodan also thought it looked familiar and instinctively gripped his stick tighter.
The rear door of the car opened, and a tall, beautiful girl emerged.
She was wearing a white dress with a gentle and calm demeanor, like a fairy who had accidentally entered the human world..
