The Devil's Sleeping Beauty

Li Bingbing exceeded Lu Yifeng’s expectations of her. Within that day, she called him and told him about the location of Bai Xiu Ying.

"The house she’s staying in is one of the Bai family’s vacation house. Her atm cards may have been blocked but according to here, mommy Bai has been sending money to her for her needs. I looked into the locals’ CCTV and looks like there’s this man who’s always with her. Of course the great me has look into his profile for you. His name is Hu Bingxi. He’s a 27 years old man and he has quite a few criminal records such as drug use and stealing. He was released from prison two years ago. Although, he was sentenced for five years in prison, he was actually bailed out by Bai Xiu Ying."

Lu Yifeng was in his office at that time while listening to Li Bingbing’s report. "Bingxi and Duyi. Those were the names that Meilin told me."

"Well, the other guy is Hu Bingxi’s brother. Hu Duyi’s went missing last week. I’ve look into it and he was last seen entering a forest park a day before they captured Meimei. Meimei got kidnapped by them, right? After seeing through the footage from Meimei’s studio, I’ve look through the other CCTV that was around the building. The only eye-catching and suspicious vehicle I saw was a black van that went out of the building’s back. I’ve followed the van through looking at the streets’ CCTVs and found that it entered that same forest park. I am guessing, that’s where they took Meimei. It will just be a matter of time before Hu Duyi’s dead body will be found since Meimei killed him, right? Anyway, going back to that Bai bitch. I found out that she has a flight scheduled tomorrow. You need to act now, boss."

Lu Yifeng’s eyes became bloodshot. "Is Xian Yu there? I have a mission to give him."

Li Bingbing pouted at the mention of Lu Xian Yu. "Hey, we have a deal."

"Once he’s out, my men will get you."

Li Bingbing’s face instantly brightened when she heard him. "Okay! I’ll go get Lu Xian Yu for you, boss!"

Looks like Lu Yifeng has to deal with the Bai family earlier than expected. They were secretly helping their daughter escape him and he will not allow that.

While Lu Yifeng began to get busy, Xia Meilin was focused on taking care of Little Melon.

"Simba became friends with Timon and Pumba." Little Melon was reading a children’s book out loud.

Xia Meilin was patiently listening to her son as she keeps on eating the fried mackerel she cooked earlier.

"Excuse me, madam. You have some visitors." A maid said as she stood by the living room’s entrance.

Xia Meilin turned and saw Lu Qian and Jing Yue, entering the living room.

She quickly stood up, "G-good evening, grandpa Qian, madam Lu."

"How many times do I have to tell you that you can call me mother." Jing Yue chuckled. She walked towards Xia Meilin and gave her a hug. "I’m sorry for visiting you without giving you a message."

"It’s okay. Please have a seat." Xia Meilin smiled. She turned to the maid. "Prepare some tea and snacks for them."

Little Melon stood up and gave Jing Yue a hug. "Mello’s happy to see mami!"

"I’m happy to see you as well, sweetheart." Jing Yue patted his head.

Little Melon turned to Lu Qian and grinned. He went to him and hugged his leg. "Welcome home, great grandpa Qian!"

Lu Qian’s eyes softened with Little Melon’s greeting. He bent down and gave the little boy a hug before he went to the sofa and sat there.

Jing Yue sat beside Xia Meilin and held her hand. "We heard what happened. Your grandpa and I came here to check on you."

Xia Meilin was touched because of what she said. What happened to Xia Meilin was hidden to her family and to others. As much as she tried hiding what happened to her, Jing Yue and Lu Qian was able to find out. "You came all the way from Guangzhou just to check on me? Mother, you don’t have to. You could have just called."

Jing Yue chuckled. "Well, we’re here now so we really can’t do that anymore."

"Thank you, mother. I’m really fine now. I really appreciate that you came to visit me here."

"I will personally handle the Bai family." Lu Qian turned to Xia Meilin with a blank look on his face. Even if he doesn’t show much emotions, he was a kind person. Since Xia Meilin was actually the granddaughter of his old friends, he started accepting her.

"Then I guess, I’ll let you face old man Bai." Lu Yifeng entered the room. He went and sat on the couch, just beside his wife.

"Will great grandpa Qian and mami be staying here tonight?" Little Melon asked. He raised his head to look at Lu Qian.

"Yes. We will stay here until tomorrow." He patted his head. "Have you visited a museum, Mello?"
