Chapter 150 Pointless
"What? Did you find her?" Old Man Wu fumed as he asked his son.
It was the noon of the last day of the summit. Hours from now will be the dinner party dedicated to everyone who joined this summit.
Yet, they still could not find Wu Ziliang.
"No father. I already searched every place in this hotel as well as the bars and the lounge. No signs of her." Wu Sheng answered, his voice solemn.
Wu Ziliang had been causing them problem after problem. He could not let that woman ruin their family anymore.
"How about the one who sent the USB? Did we hear anything from them? How about that guy on the video? Anything? CAN YOU TELL ME ANYTHING GOOD AT ALL?"
Wu Sheng just shook his head. This was enough to tell his father that he got nothing.
"The only thing that I got was the bartender saying he saw Wu Ziliang with some guy and she became so drunk the guy had to carry her to be able to leave the place."
"And did you asked him about the appearance of the guy?" His father asked.
"The lights were dimmed so he was not able to see the face of the man. Or if he did he did not remember him." He answered. "The only reason he remembered Ziliang was because she was the only one drinking red wine on that night."
Old Man Wu clenched his jaw and shoved his hands into his pockets. This was absolutely planned by someone. He could feel it.
Yet, he was not sure who would dare do this to him and his family.
"Father could this be... could this be Jiang Yue"s work?" Wu Sheng hesitantly said. He had no proof about this but his instincts were telling him that this was done by that woman.
"What for?" Old Man Wu asked. He too thought that it was Jiang Yue at first but this just did not make sense at all. "To blackmail us? Why? She could easily cancel this engagement yet she did not! What for? What is that girl planning?"
Wu Sheng turned silent at his father"s words. His father is right. What could be Jiang Yue"s purpose for doing this? It should not be because of money... so why blackmail them?
"Maybe she is trying to embarra.s.s Ziliang? Maybe she is warning us that she will reveal the video if we continue with the engagement?" Wu Sheng suggested.
"Uggghhhh! It does not make any sense!" Old Man Wu replied, frustration apparent in his voice. "What could be her reason for doing this?"
"Grandfather... I think... it"s not her." Wu Minxia spoke after watching the two for quite some time. "I don"t believe she will do something without any reason at all."
"You have a point. I will agree with Minxia this time father." Wu Sheng said while nodding his head. Her daughter"s reasoning was right. Jiang Yue would not do something that will not benefit her.
"Then who could it be? Do you think it"s Aunt Fu?" Wu Minxia asked.
"I don"t know... I know that Zhao Feiyan is capable of doing this but she will not. She will not touch me without Old Man Fu"s permission. Still, it does not make any sense." Old Man Wu answered.
He already considered the possibility of Zhao Feiyan doing this. But he couldn"t find any reason for her to do that to him and his whole family.
"What if it"s someone we don"t know? Maybe we offended someone we shouldn"t have." Wu Minxia said.
"Impossible! That is simply impossible! I would never offend someone more powerful than our family!" Old Man Wu answered. He was certain that he did not touch anyone he was not supposed to. "How about you? You are always arrogant with everyone. You could have offended someone!" he pointed at his granddaughter.
Lately, all of his problems were caused by the women in their family.
Sometimes, Old Man Wu would think that the females in the Wu Family were all cursed.
"This talk is pointless. Why don"t you all go and find that woman! Do not let her attend the dinner party tonight!" Old Man Wu added. Talking and blaming each other will not bring them any good.
They needed to find his daughter and they needed to do it soon.
After hearing his words, both Wu Sheng and Wu Minxia immediately made their way out of the room with some of their bodyguards.
They only had one goal. Find Wu Ziliang and don"t allow her to attend the dinner party no matter what.
When the duo left, Old Man Wu instantly took a seat and let out a long sigh.
Then he ma.s.saged his temples, his exhaustion was slowly consuming him. He had been having several headaches lately because of the never-ending problems.
Who could have done something like this to his family?
"Father?" Old Man Wu immediately turned his attention towards the owner of the voice.
"Ziliang? Where..." However, before he could finish his words, Wu Ziliang immediately ran towards him and enveloped him in an embrace.
"Father you must help me... Please father... I... I need your help!" Her shoulders shook as she started to sob in her father"s arms.
The moment Old Man Wu saw his crying daughter, his anger instantly disappeared as if it was never there in the first place.
Just how pitiful was his daughter to experience something like this?
His gaze immediately softened as he started to pat his daughter"s head.
However, Old Man Wu was so concerned in his daughter"s emotional state that he missed the glint in Wu Ziliang"s eyes the moment her father started to pat her head.
