Chapter 912: Found It
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Chu Lui did not say anything. At this time, the elevator arrived at the first floor. Chu Lui walked out first, followed by Xia Ruoxin. She hugged the doc.u.ments and went into another elevator. Chu Lui’s gaze remained on her shoes. Xia Ruoxin did not even know herself that there was something on her that seemed to come from Xia Yixuan.
He turned and walked outside, but his expression was rather gloomy.
He took his phone out and placed it by his ear. “Brother San, how is it? Any news? Not yet, en. I understand. Also, Brother San, can you look into another person for me? Where she’s been, what she’s done? I have a feeling she’s linked to this.”
With that, he placed his phone back into his pocket. He really did not want things to turn out like he had thought. If that were the case, the Lu family, the Xia household, and the Chu family would be turned upside down.
From the start, he never understood where Lu Xiaohua’s hatred towards Xia Yixuan came from. It was pure hatred. Even if Lu Xiaohua tried to hide it, he knew it.
Sitting in the car, he took out a cigarette and began smoking.
He took out his phone and found Lu Jinrong’s phone number. He dialed a single digit before deleting it and tossing his phone aside. He lit up the cigarette. Things were weighing on his mind, but he did not even know how much there was until he felt like he could not breathe.
…
Xia Ruoxin got out of the car and looked at the sky. It looked like it was about to rain. No matter how many times, she would brave the rain. It did not bother her. She was alone anyway.
Clack. She opened a door, and Xia Yixuan—who was inside—curled up immediately. This was her tenth day in here. Ten days was enough to turn a person into a dog. It was enough to completely ruin a person’s pride. However, Xia Yixuan was still clear-headed. She was unscathed—just a little grimy and dirty.
Xia Ruoxin did not ruin her face. Neither did she break her bones or starve her.
She squatted down and looked at the pathetic, crazed woman before her eyes. Perhaps she had never wanted Xia Yixuan to do anything. The man she found the last time would not have actually hurt Xia Yixuan. However, she still could not do it. It was a life; she was not that vicious.
She could not kill Song Wan… or Xia Yixuan.
Xia Yixuan deserved to die, but what about Xia Mingzheng and Shen Yijun? No matter if Xia Ruoxin or Lu Xiaohua killed her, it was not simply about killing someone. Family members would always be implicated.
One was mother Jian who would give her motherly love.
She pulled out a fruit knife and walked over. Xia Yixuan screamed when she saw the knife in Xia Ruoxin’s hand. She struggled and hid as she crawled.
…
At this time, Brother San hung up the phone and called Chu Lui.
“Chu Lui, I’ve found the person you’re looking for…”
When Shen Wei entered, she saw Brother San hang up the phone. She walked over and picked up the cup from the table. She sat down in her favorite rocking chair and began rocking herself.
“Brother San, who was that? I rarely see you say so much to another person.”
“It’s Chu Lui.” Brother San walked over and squatted down before Shen Wei. “He asked me to help him look for someone.”
“Oh…” Shen Wei was disinterested. She closed her eyes as she held onto her red wine without drinking it. The rocking chair creaked occasionally, lulling one to sleep.
“Who is he looking for?” Shen Wei asked casually without thinking.
“n.o.body important.” Brother San picked up a blanket and covered Shen Wei’s legs.
“It’s Xia Yixuan.”
Pak! Shen Wei’s mug fell to the floor, breaking into several pieces. A significant amount of the red liquid splashed on her.
Brother San was caught by surprise.
Shen Wei sat up suddenly.
“Xia Yixuan. Xia Ruoxin’s sister? That Xia Yixuan?”
“Yeah.” Brother San was stunned by Shen Wei’s sudden reaction. “What’s wrong?” Was she feeling unwell? He immediately put his palm on her forehead. Shen Wei smacked his hand side. She stood up and walked outside.
“Wei, where are you going?”
Brother San caught up hurriedly. The weather was unpredictable, and it was about to rain. What if she got caught in the rain? She was still not fully recovered even now.
Shen Wei suddenly stopped. She turned, and her expression was almost frozen.
“Brother San, I took Xia Yixuan.”
“What did you say?” Brother San could not believe his ears. “What do you want with Xia Yixuan?”
“It’s not me; it’s Ruoxin.” Shen Wei turned and walked outside, hoping that she was not too late.
Brother San still did not understand, but he felt that Chu Lui should know. Besides, what did Xia Ruoxin want with Xia Yixuan? Xia Ruoxin was a softie. She did not even do anything when Xia Yixuan came back. Shen Wei was capable of kidnapping someone for revenge, but Xia Ruoxin the softie would never.
As he walked, he dialed Chu Lui’s number. However, there was no answer.
Pick up, hurry and pick up.
For an unexplained reason, Brother San had a bad feeling. By then, Shen Wei was already in the car. Brother San went up and opened the car door. He did not try to go to the steering wheel. Shen Wei was moving fast. It was raining outside. Raindrops pelted on the windscreen from time to time, forming splatters.
Brother San called Chu Lui again and again, but there was never an answer.
Shen Wei’s face was emotionless. It was a little too quiet. Moreover, Brother San did not doubt what Shen Wei had said. She was behind the kidnapping. The road they were on led directly to where he had tracked Xia Yixuan to be.
At this time, Chu Lui stood outside the abandoned factory. The rain was heavy now. The sky was dark as the raindrops pelted down, but he did not know that the phone he left in his car had rung countless times.
He placed his hand on the door. Here.
Putting force into his fingers, he pushed the door forward.
When the dim light from outside flowed in, Chu Lui suddenly widened his eyes.
