Chapter 506 - 509: The Viper Woman Xu Pei [7]
The Vixen Xu Pei
On the Third Ring Road.
Accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of brakes, the black Mercedes-Benz car abruptly stopped by the roadside.
Inside the car cabin, sitting on the driver’s seat, Leng Zimo lifted a palm and tightly covered his chest.
His heart suddenly hurt so much that he could almost not breathe.
His suit had long been drenched from getting out of the car in the rain countless times, cold as ice to the touch.
Pushing open the car door, he dragged his legs out of the car with no strength, looking at the empty road, filled with nothing but heartache and regret.
How could he be so stupid?
How could he have been so stupid!
To think that he hadn’t realized something so simple.
Leng Zimo, oh Leng Zimo, you’ve always thought yourself to be clever.
"Leng Zimo, you’re such a damn fool!" He cursed toward the sky, weakly collapsing next to the car, "Xiao Qian, where on earth are you, please, don’t let anything happen to you, please..."
Inside the car, his cellphone rang.
Leng Zimo was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly scrambled up to grab the phone and answered the call, "Did you find her?"
"Zimo." From the other end of the phone, Leng Lin’s deep voice came through.
Lowering his hand, Leng Zimo hung up the phone directly.
...
...
Leng Family Mansion.
The study.
Leng Lin, frowning at the busy signal in the phone receiver, put the receiver back on the hook.
"Miss Luo, is there any news?"
By his side, the maid Aunt Su cautiously asked.
Leng Lin shook his head slightly, although he hadn’t asked a single question, Leng Zimo’s reaction had already told him everything.
After a moment of deep thought with a frown, he gently raised his hand and waved to Aunt Su, who immediately understood and withdrew from the study, closing the door behind her.
Hesitating for another moment, Leng Lin picked up the receiver again and dialed a number.
"Shichang, could you, could you do me a favor?"
On the other side of the phone, the respectful Police Chief Xu Shichang responded, "Please tell me, what is it?"
"Help me find someone, and keep it discreet," Leng Lin said.
"Rest assured, within an hour, I will personally come over to get the information," Xu Shichang assured from the other end of the line.
"Good!" Leng Lin hung up the phone, turned and walked to the window, watching the heavy rain through the rain-soaked glass with a somber expression, "Qian girl, Uncle is sorry to you!"
...
...
Lakeside villa, Xu Pei parked her car in the garage with a stumble.
She sat in the driver’s seat for a long time before she weakly pushed open the car door.
Before her eyes, Lu Hao’s face flashed by again, she frowned, and took long strides toward the living room.
"You forced me, you forced me, I’m not a whore, I’m not..."
Muttering incoherently, she walked straight to the bar, grabbed a bottle of liquor, and poured herself half a glass, gulping it down.
After downing several glasses of liquor, her pale face finally showed a hint of red.
Kicking off her shoes, she leaned against the railing, and climbed the stairs with no strength.
Instead of entering the bedroom, she entered the study, pulled open a drawer, took out a cigarette from a cigarette box, and put it in her mouth, striking the lighter five times before managing to light the cigarette.
Her eyes caught the half-old tin box in the drawer, she carefully took out the box and opened it.
Inside the box, there was a neatly folded piece of paper.
Obviously aged, the paper was slightly yellowed.
A little bit of ash fell into the box onto the paper streaked with handwriting; Xu Pei promptly dropped the cigarette from her hand, carefully blew the ash out, and took the paper with writing from the box, and only after confirming it wasn’t damaged did she sigh in relief.
...
...
Goodnight.
