Ming Jing led Ming Yi into the private room, finding the atmosphere inside a bit tense.
Zhu Xiangxiang’s face was pale, and seeing Ming Jing entering, she didn’t 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 heart…
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, “Ming Jing, your mother didn’t want to bother you, but I have no choice…”
Ming Jing indifferently asked, ‘What’s the matter?”
For some reason, Lin Qing’s anxiety calmed down when she heard Ming Jing’s calm tone, as if she found her backbone.
“Your brother Shaodan has been missing since the last time he left home. He doesn’t answer my calls, and I can’t 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. I’m afraid something might have happened to him. If we can’t find him today, I’m ready to call the police.”
“You have many friends. Can you help me to ask around?” Lin Qing asked cautiously.
She didn’t 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, “Don’t worry, I’ll help you ask around. ”
Hearing the young girl’s gentle voice, Lin Qing couldn’t help herself anymore, covering her mouth and trying not to cry.
She turned around immediately, “Sorry for bothering you. If you hear anything about Shaodan, please let me know right away.”
With that, she left quickly.
Ming Jing sighed and called Jiang Chunlan to ask her to help inquire about Zhu Shaodan’s whereabouts.
“Your brother is missing? Did he get into another fight?”
Bai Ziyan had already returned to Jingdu, so it shouldn’t be him.
“Don’t worry, a grown child like him will be fine. I’ll send someone to look for him immediately, and I’ll notify you as soon as there’s any news.”
“Thank you, Madam.”
“You’re still being polite with me? Come visit our house when you have time.”
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.
“Madam, recently Young Master Zhu has been hanging around a person called Laiba. Laiba is just a small-time thug who commits petty crimes. I’m afraid that Young Master Zhu won’t learn anything good if he continues to hang out with him.”
Jiang Chunlan had been investigating the matter with An Zhitinlan recently and asked, “What was Ran Tengxiao’s purpose in meddling with An Zhitinlan last time?”
She still hadn’t figured it out, as Ran Tengxiao wasn’t that stupid.
“Could it be that he already suspects my identity?”
Jiang Chunlan rubbed her brow, “I really underestimated that Ran Tengxiao.”
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.
“He’s so young, yet so formidable, not inferior to his great uncle. If we don’t cut off his wings at the beginning, there will be no chance once he grows stronger.”
Jiang Chunlan sighed, “I’ve already missed the best opportunity.” Zhou Xue asked, “Madam, what should we do now?
Jiang Chunlan hooked her lips and revealed a calculating smile.
“It’s okay, I still have one last trump card.”
“By the way, has Zheng Qing been found?”
“Madam, he has been killed by Night Hawk personally. The matter with Zhao Kang has been settled, and your record can be updated accordingly.”
Jiang Chunlan smiled and said, “Night Hawk, you didn’t disappoint me.”
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.
“Scar, this kid is with the Second Young Master. Let’s not be impulsive.” 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..
