“What’s wrong with Ran Bao’er? Is she unwell?”
Tang Si propped his head against her head with one hand and pinched her earlobe with the other, teasing her.
“Wuwu… You… you’re too wicked…” She was both ashamed and angry, yet distressed to the point of going mad. Tears of grievance welled up.
“Why are you crying?”
He smirked wickedly and leaned down to whisper in her ear, “Do you want… it?”
“Mm.”
She responded with tears.
“What do you mean by ‘mm’?” The man, like a master of seduction, toyed with Shi Ran.
“I… I want to.”
“Want what?”
“I want it.”
“If you want it, I’ll give it to you? Or, how about you make the first move?”
Seeing Shi Ran cry, Tang Si grew more excited, deliberately tormenting her.
“I… I don’t know how.”
“It’s okay, I can teach you.”
Thus, he held her, switching their positions, and personally guided Shi Ran.
In the room, the two were passionately entwined, filled with joy.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Meng Jingwei was worried. After bathing, she sat in her room, her heart strings taut, having not slept all night.
She didn’t know where Qing Muye was.
Even when she opened her laptop, intending to use her skills to investigate the surveillance, she was unfamiliar with Yin Yu and couldn’t operate the computer at all.
The situation had become passive.
Meng Jingwei sat before the computer, seeing that it was already three in the morning.
She wanted to contact Old Chen Tou, but Old Chen Tou preferred her to be on the mountain now, rather than descending solely to find Qing Muye.
This feeling of powerlessness was truly passive and helpless.
Finally, Meng Jingwei dialed Old Chen Tou’s number.
Ring, ring, ring—
The phone rang a few times, and Old Chen Tou immediately answered, “Jingwei? Where are you now?”
Receiving Meng Jingwei’s call, Old Chen Tou was very surprised.
If she were on the mountain, due to the geographical location, it would be impossible to use a mobile phone. Therefore, Meng Jingwei being able to make a call indicated that she was no longer on the mountain.
“I have already descended. Qing Muye was seriously injured and was rescued by He Kalian Nu. I need you to help me find Qing Muye’s whereabouts.”
Meng Jingwei stated her purpose directly.
As soon as she finished speaking, Old Chen Tou exploded, “What do you want to do? Do you know what the Hunting Grand Ceremony means? You’ve gone crazy, descending the mountain privately for one Qing Muye? Do you know how much manpower, resources, and money your mother and I spent to ensure you could win the championship?!”
Old Chen Tou’s rare fury could be heard from the other end of the phone as he berated her.
However, everything seemed to be within Meng Jingwei’s expectations. She said calmly, “I know what you’re talking about. All you care about is the position of Yin Lord, but all I care about is Qing Muye. As long as you help me find Qing Muye within a day, I will go back up the mountain immediately after seeing him, and will not delay your plan.”
“Conversely, if you can’t find Qing Muye within two or three days, I’m afraid that by the time I get back up the mountain, others will have already taken the lead.”
She spoke her mind.
In fact, she was threatening Old Chen Tou.
There was a secret path from the mountain that allowed free ingress and egress, bypassing the guards at the foot of the mountain.
Meng Jingwei did not give Old Chen Tou much time, naturally also giving him an opportunity to weigh his options.
On the other side, there was a long silence, and finally, Old Chen Tou responded with a “Fine,” and hung up the phone.
At the same time, at the He Xiao Lanya Villa.
Because of the Hunting Grand Ceremony, the two were restless and sat with several elders of the He Xiao clan to discuss matters.
Hearing Old Chen Tou’s call, He Xiao Lanya understood the situation and immediately asked, “Jingwei has descended the mountain?”
Old Chen Tou was furious and threw his phone onto the sofa, “So disappointing! She only has Qing Muye in her eyes!”
“Sigh, she married Qing Muye and they have two children. It’s normal for her heart to be with him. But…”
He Xiao Lanya was speaking when she paused and suddenly looked up at Old Chen Tou.
Their eyes met, and Old Chen Tou said, “Jingwei said Qing Muye was injured and rescued down the mountain by He Kalian Nu. So, was that helicopter yesterday morning rescuing Qing Muye? No wonder He Kalian Nu was so fond of Qing Muye before. It seems highly likely she already knows Qing Muye’s true identity.”
“Yes.”
He Xiao Lanya nodded, “I noticed the way He Kalian Nu looked at Qing Muye was very different before. Now that I think about it, she probably likes Qing Muye.”
