That evening, at Qinxin Residence.
After sending Madam Qing back to Qinxin Residence, Qing Kangyu publicly asked Qiao Ziqian if he wanted to go back. But Qiao Ziqian just smiled foolishly at him, shook his head, and hugged Madam Qing, saying he didn't want to go back.
Helpless, Qing Kangyu left.
Three hours later, Meng Jingwei, in her office, received a call from Shen Liannuo, "Jingwei, your... your father is missing."
"Missing?"
Meng Jingwei stood up from her chair, "Are you sure he wasn't just going out for a walk?"
"After dinner, Uncle wanted to go for a walk, so I specifically found bodyguards to accompany him. But he didn't return for two hours. When we went to look for him, we only saw the injured and unconscious bodyguards on the ground. When they woke up, they only said that Uncle was kidnapped, but they didn't know the identity of the other party."
Shen Liannuo briefly explained the situation to Meng Jingwei.
She added, "I've already sent people to look for him, so don't worry too much."
This situation was completely beyond Shen Liannuo's expectation.
It was already a critical period, and she had been staying at Qinxin Residence, taking care of everyone, fearing that an accident might happen. But she never expected that an accident would still occur.
"Send people out to search, and you stay in the villa to accompany my mother, so she won't overthink things," Meng Jingwei said.
Shen Liannuo felt guilty, "No, he disappeared under my watch, so I must take responsibility."
"Kidnapping my father is naturally aimed at me. Even if you don't search, they will contact me proactively. You don't need to worry too much," she analyzed rationally.
Even if it wasn't entirely aimed at her, it was likely related to Qing Muyye, especially since Zhuo Rui Technology was about to be auctioned.
If someone were to threaten Meng Jingwei with Meng Tianhua at this moment, forcing her to sell Zhuo Rui Technology at the reserve price, it would be very troublesome.
After hanging up the phone, Meng Jingwei sat back in her executive chair and rubbed her temples, feeling utterly exhausted.
"Young Madam, what's wrong?"
Song Ci noticed Meng Jingwei's not-so-good complexion and understood from the conversation that something had happened at home. "I'll send people to find Mr. Meng's whereabouts immediately."
"Yes, thank you for your trouble." Meng Jingwei nodded.
"You don't need to be so polite, Young Madam," Song Ci said, then turned and left the office.
Qing Muyye's situation was very tricky. The situation in Lancheng was currently turbulent, with her in the open and the enemy in the dark, making her extremely passive.
Who would kidnap her father?
Qing Kangyu?
No, Qiao Ziqian was still at Qinxin Residence, so it definitely couldn't be Qing Kangyu.
Then there was only... the Tang family from the capital, Qing Sihai, and... Antina from Country C.
After thinking, Meng Jingwei took out her phone and made a call to Zhang Hui, who was far away in Country C.
Ring ring ring...
The phone rang a few times, and Zhang Hui answered, "President Meng, what are your instructions?"
"Contact Dessatini and immediately investigate Antina to see what her current situation is," Meng Jingwei instructed.
Given that Antina's father was a member of the mafia, Meng Jingwei was worried that Zhang Hui alone might not be enough.
Although Zhang Hui was a member of a private detective agency, compared to the mafia, the difference in strength was worlds apart. Without Dessatini's help, he definitely wouldn't be able to handle it alone.
"Okay, President Meng."
After the other party agreed, he hung up the phone.
As for Qing Sihai, she needed to ask Shu Yao.
Shu Yao had said that morning that Qing Sihai had invited her to dinner, and she hadn't received Shu Yao's call yet, so it was highly likely they were still together.
To avoid leaking any information, Meng Jingwei had to send Shu Yao a WeChat message: [Are you back?]
After sending the message, there was no reply for a long time.
She was sure that Shu Yao was probably still with Qing Sihai.
