Chapter 458 - 461: The Attitude of Father Leng【4】
World City downstairs.
Xiao Ding slowly drove the car into the residential area, heading towards the unit where Leng Zimo and Luo Xiaoqian lived. Just as he turned the corner, he saw a black Audi parked outside the building—a car belonged to Leng Lin, and Xiao Ding was naturally familiar with it.
His gaze swept over the familiar license plate, and a shock flashed through Xiao Ding’s eyes. He immediately stopped the car and reversed into another entrance to park.
He carefully approached to inspect the car, and after confirming the license plate for the second time, assuring himself it was indeed Leng Lin’s vehicle, he quickly retreated to a hidden spot and pulled out his phone to call Leng Zimo.
"President Leng, this is Xiao Ding."
"Is there something wrong with Xiao Qian?" The voice of Leng Zimo came through the phone, urgent, "Which paparazzi dare to stake out World City to watch me?"
"It’s not the paparazzi!" Xiao Ding swallowed, "It’s... it’s your father!"
"Him?!" Leng Zimo was also startled, "Are you sure?!"
"I saw the black Audi parked downstairs, with the license plate Capital XXXXXX. I remember that’s your father’s car. Only the driver is cleaning it; your father doesn’t seem to be in the car."
"Keep watch there, and call me immediately if anything happens. I’m heading back right now!"
After the call, Leng Zimo didn’t even glance at the people sitting around the conference table and immediately strode out of the meeting room.
The people in the meeting room were still looking at each other in confusion, but Ailin had already started speaking with a smile, "President Leng has an emergency, I’ll take over and continue the meeting."
Rushing to the elevator, Leng Zimo almost bumped into Xu Pei.
"Zimo!" Xu Pei, recognizing him, hurriedly stood up straight, "What are you..."
"Move!"
Leng Zimo spoke coldly.
"Zimo?!" Xu Pei stood still, not moving.
"If Xiao Qian suffers even the slightest bit because of this, you and I are done, even as friends!"
Leaving behind those words, Leng Zimo circled around her and dashed for the elevator, tapping his forehead in frustration as he entered.
"Leng Zimo, you idiot!"
He had thought of everything—phone calls, cell phones, the internet... but it had not occurred to him that someone might just come directly upstairs.
"Leng Lin!" Inside the elevator, Leng Zimo was grinding his teeth, "You have already hurt a woman I care about. If you dare to hurt my Xiao Qian, I will never forgive you in this lifetime!"
Xu Pei watched his figure vanish inside the elevator, thought for a moment, and then immediately dashed toward another set of elevators.
Moments later, Leng Zimo’s dark blue sports car roared out of the Emperor View Underground Parking Lot, and a while after, Xu Pei’s white Maserati followed suit.

...
World City.
Leng Lin’s gaze swept across the young and handsome face of Luo Chuchen in the photo frame, his eyes flashing with extremely complex emotions, as he carefully placed the photo frame back in its original spot.
"I don’t know him."
His tone was very calm, but the hand that placed the photo frame trembled slightly, and his left hand, hanging at his side, was already clenched tight, as if he were trying hard to control some emotion.
In fact, Luo Xiaoqian regretted asking the question as soon as she uttered it.
Who was Leng Lin? He was a high-ranking official, and her father? Just a regular clerical worker. Even if her father had once stayed in Beijing, how could they possibly have crossed paths?!
He knew her father’s name, certainly because he had investigated her before.
Glancing at her father’s sunny face in the photo frame, Luo Xiaoqian spoke softly, "You’re here, so there must be something you want to tell me, right?"
