Be Careful, Scum Dad! Mommy Is Back!
Chapter 248 - Chapter 248 Chapter 248 Wrong Theres One More Place

Chapter 248: Chapter 248 Wrong! There’s One More Place Chapter 248: Chapter 248 Wrong! There’s One More Place But now was not the time to nitpick.

Because they had searched the entire small building where Gou Shanmu lived, and still hadn’t seen a trace of the child.

When Lu Xining dragged Gou Shanmu over, Ji Muye and Zhou Jiawang’s men had already turned the whole small building upside down, but the child was nowhere to be found.

Seeing their faces, she knew her daughter hadn’t been found yet.

Zhou Jiawang said he had arranged for a citywide search and would do everything possible to find Lu Nuonuo.

He said, “I will find the child!”

Lu Xining stared coldly into his eyes, pondering the sincerity in his words.

On the way over, she had gone over what Mr. Gou had said.

Under such pressing circumstances, it was impossible for him to deceive his daughter again, especially since Gou Shanmu didn’t have the brains to catch his scheming.

Since he had said so, it meant the child must have been truly brought over.

The child was brought in, but couldn’t be found?

Ji Muye had arrived only twenty or so minutes before Lu Xining.

Every room in this building, including the basement and storage rooms, was thoroughly searched, with no sign of the child to be found.

Ji Muye’s face looked very unpleasant.

Phones were ringing one after another, but there was no good news.

Lu Xining’s phone in her pocket was also vibrating non-stop, her face turning equally grim after taking the calls.

Zhou Jiawang’s phone was continuously receiving messages too, but the results were the same.

“Ningning, we’ve searched here, the child isn’t here.”

Lu Xining indifferently responded, “Just because she’s not here doesn’t mean she’s not in other Zhou Family houses.”

She and Ji Muye exchanged glances.

Both turned their gaze to the building where other Zhou Family members lived, not far away.

Ji Muye cast a cold glance, and upon receiving the signal, Ma Sai and Wang Snake immediately led their men towards it.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Jiawang stood frozen.

He couldn’t believe it and said, “You suspect my grandmother and mother…”

“I didn’t say anything, it’s your subconscious thoughts.”

Lu Xining stared into his eyes and said slowly and clearly, “Awang, you’re suspecting your grandmother and mother too, aren’t you? Why else would you think that?”

Her words made Zhou Jiawang’s heart sink continuously, but he still didn’t believe his own family would be involved in kidnapping a child.

He hurriedly explained, “Ningning, my grandmother and mother are not that kind of people.”

“They were wrong before, but they would never engage in something like kidnapping a child!”

Ji Muye stepped in front of Lu Xining, blocking the man who was swiftly approaching.

“Mr. Zhou, go and see, and you’ll know if she’s there.”

Ji Muye’s dark pupils held restrained anger, he turned his head to look at Lu Xining, and seeing that her emotions were fairly stable, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

He lowered his voice and said, “I’ll go over first.”

Zhou Jiawang saw his disregard for the Zhou Family and anger flashed across his face as he said, “President Ji, this is Port City, not Jingzhou, some things can’t be done just because you want to do them.”

Ji Muye just raised his eyelids to his threat, the chilling cold on his body shooting straight to the heart of the man opposite him.

He said in a deep tone, “You can go to the police.”

Ji Muye headed towards the building where Old Lady Zhou resided, Zhou Jiawang ordered people to stop him, but Lu Xining blocked them.

Zhou Jiawang said, “Ningning, calm down and listen to me, the Zhou Family house isn’t a place one can just come and go as they please, my grandmother she…”

Over six hours had passed since her daughter disappeared, and Lu Xining’s rationality and patience were on the brink of exhaustion.

At the moment her emotions crumbled, whether it was the Zhou Family or the Gou Family, she would make sure to send them all to hell!

“Whether they are involved or not isn’t up to you, we must speak with facts.”

“If Nuonuo’s disappearance has nothing to do with them, I will publicly apologize to your grandmother and mother in the newspaper!”

“But if they are involved, no matter how powerful the Zhou Family is, as long as I’m alive, I will find a way to kill them! I, Lu Xining, mean what I say!”

She cast a cold glance at the Zhou Family bodyguards who wanted to step forward but were waiting for Zhou Jiawang’s orders, and grabbed Gou Shanmu by the hair, heading towards the building where Old Lady Zhou lived.

Gou Shanmu kept looking back.

Seeing Zhou Jiawang mumbling on but unable to speak because his mouth was sealed by Lu Xining, and realizing her own wretched appearance was witnessed by him, Gou Shanmu was filled with a murderous desire towards Lu Xining.

However, not seeing the Bald Man in the small building relieved Gou Shanmu somewhat, because she didn’t believe that the child would be hidden in Old Lady Zhou’s building, yet the confusion it caused was a benefit to her.

Perhaps it was her father who intentionally said so?

The Zhou Family members who received the news were already on their way back.

Old Lady Zhou, faced with one problem after another during the splendid birthday celebration, showed displeasure on her face. After speaking a few words, she left the banquet hall, leaving her son Zhou Zhenqing to continue mingling.

Feng Suli stayed at the scene with her husband.

As for Zhou Ni Juan, she took her daughter Zhou Ziyue, who had returned for her birthday celebration, back to the Zhou Family first.

The location of the birthday celebration was very close to the Zhou Family’s Half Mountain Villa, just a 20-minute drive away.

Step on the gas, and it could take just 15 minutes to get back.

“Mom, I encountered Lu Xining in Jingzhou. She has twin sons, and Xinxin is in the same kindergarten as them.”

“This woman obviously can’t stay out of trouble. It was because of her affair that she and President Ji divorced. But she got lucky, had two sons, and I heard she took half the wealth after the divorce.”

“If Xinxin were a boy, my position wouldn’t be so passive now. You have no idea what Qiao An…”

“Ziyue, keep it down.” Zhou Ziyue was getting more animated as she spoke, but Zhou Ni Juan cut off her trailing words, anxiety apparent in the old lady’s eyes.

Zhou Ziyue bit her lip; when Lu Xining had been brought back by the Zhou Family, she had already married off to Jingzhou and barely returned to Port City over those three years. She only knew her mother had taken in a young girl.

To her surprise, Lu Xining’s current status was even higher than hers.

“What are you trying to do!”

Zhou Ni Juan’s car hadn’t yet reached the Zhou Family home when it was forced to stop by Ma Sai and Wang Snake, along with their men.

The driver was dragged out by Wang Snake, who then took the driver’s seat while Ma Sai sat in the passenger seat, holding something in his hand and pointed it at the two people behind, saying, “Stay calm, both of you!”

Wang Snake floored the accelerator and went straight back to the Zhou Family home.

Getting out of the car, Zhou Ni Juan saw the small building she lived in brightly lit, and, holding her cane, she slammed it hard against the ground, making a chilling sound, her face filled with anger at being disrespected.

Just minutes earlier,

Zhou Jiawang, to ease Lu Xining’s mind, personally took her and Ji Muye to check all the rooms in Zhou Ni Juan’s small building.

Ma Sai, Wang Snake, Ji Family’s bodyguards, and Lu Xining’s bodyguards were left in the living room downstairs, confronting the Zhou Family members.

They had examined all three floors.

After seeing there were no signs of the children, Zhou Jiawang’s anxious heart finally settled amidst the unease.

If Lu Nuonuo were actually at his grandmother’s, he truly didn’t know how he would face Lu Xining, let alone how to face Little Dumpling, who always sweetly called him “handsome uncle.”

“Now can you all believe what I’ve been saying?”

They had returned to the living room on the first floor, and indeed, no child was found after all the rooms upstairs had been checked.

Zhou Jiawang: “Ningning, I also like Nuonuo very much, and I’m truly anxious about her disappearance, but this definitely has nothing to do with the Zhou Family!”

Lu Xining, not listening to what he said, kept replaying the events in her mind, feeling as though she was forgetting something important.

“No, there’s one place we haven’t checked yet!”
