Chapter 1819: Chapter 1818: Xu Wanqi Was Betrayed
Xu Wanqi’s eyes flashed with a slight surprise as she looked at Meng Ke’s gloomy face, “Senior, are we going to Country M?”
“No, we are not going to Country M.”
Meng Ke shook his head, a hint of coldness flickered in his eyes, and his voice was deep, “If because of Qing Yang’s matter, the police become suspicious, then going to Country M would be walking right into a trap. I have no plans to go to Country M in the short term.”
“Then what about the business?”
Xu Wanqi furrowed her brow in confusion.
Meng Ke chuckled coldly, “Business? Which business are you referring to? As long as you have money and the intention, you can do business anywhere.”
The place he wanted to go was Country D.
“Have you discussed it with Uncle and Auntie?”
“I’ve arranged everything for them. Tomorrow, I’ll have them go abroad as a form of tourism…”
Meng Ke’s plan to go abroad wasn’t just a day’s or two-day’s idea; ever since he got involved in certain things, he had been thinking of a way out.
For Xu Wanqi, going abroad was a joyous thought.
As long as Meng Ke stayed in G City, he would think about Bai Xiaoxiao every day. Once they went abroad, Meng Ke would no longer think about Bai Xiaoxiao.
In this way, Meng Ke would be hers alone.
Thinking of this, a smile appeared on Xu Wanqi’s face. She nestled gently into Meng Ke’s arms and said softly, “Senior, wherever you go, I will go with you, never leaving you.”
Meng Ke lowered his eyes, gazing at Xu Wanqi’s eyes filled with gentle feelings, but what he thought of was another beautiful face.
How could he go abroad without taking her?
In a couple of days, there should be news from Country D.
People who do this kind of big business are not limited to one place, one country.
**
Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyelids twitched continuously for several days.
She always felt that something bad was going to happen.
That day, while Bai Xiaoxiao was in her father’s office, Lu Zhiyan’s call came in.
After Mr. Bai finished the call, a joyful smile appeared on his face. He said to Bai Xiaoxiao, “Xiaoxiao, Lu Zhiyan called and said Xu Wanfei has confessed.”
“Confessed to what?”
Bai Xiaoxiao blinked, smiling as she looked at Mr. Bai.
Mr. Bai’s smile slightly cooled, “Xu Wanfei said she was instructed by Xu Wanqi to kidnap your mother.”
“Besides Xu Wanqi, is there anyone else?”
Bai Xiaoxiao frowned slightly.
Xu Wanfei was instructed by Xu Wanzhan, so wasn’t Xu Wanqi instructed by Meng Ke?
Meng Ke appeared so coincidentally, just in time to save her mother.
Became the benefactor of the Bai Family.
Thus getting her back to his side…
Mr. Bai frowned and shook his head, “This is all Xu Wanfei said, the police have already gone to arrest Xu Wanqi; maybe, Xu Wanqi will say more at that time.”
Bai Xiaoxiao snorted, “I think not. Xu Wanqi will never betray Meng Ke, even if Meng Ke instructed her to do it, she would not say.”
Just as she returned to her office, her phone rang.
Seeing the caller ID, Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyes flashed with a hint of joy. She pressed the answer key, and a cheerful voice overflowed from her red lips, “Hello.”
“Xiaoxiao, we’ve arrived in G City, let’s have lunch together at noon, I have something to give you.”
On the other end, Luo Haofeng’s deep and joyful voice came through, with a faint noise in the background.
Bai Xiaoxiao’s eyebrows radiated with brightness, and she readily agreed, “Okay, let’s have lunch together, I have something to tell you too.”
“What is it?”
As soon as Luo Haofeng heard she had something to say, he couldn’t wait until noon.
Bai Xiaoxiao chuckled, “It’s good news; the kidnapping case has been clarified. It was Xu Wanqi who instructed Xu Wanfei. The more I investigate, the less it has to do with your mother. Doesn’t that count as good news?”
In her ear, came Luo Haofeng’s laughter.
Low and deep, in Bai Xiaoxiao’s ear, the smile in her eyes and brow unconsciously became even more radiant.
“Xiaoxiao, this is indeed good news. I’ll tell my mother about this, she should be relieved.”
Mother Luo had been asking, every so often, whether there had been a result about the kidnapping case.
After Luo Haofeng finished the call with Bai Xiaoxiao and got in the car with Qiao Siyi, he dialed Mother Luo’s number again.
Sitting next to him, Qiao Siyi saw Luo Haofeng’s joyful expression and felt happy too.
She didn’t ask what Bai Xiaoxiao said on the phone that made President Luo so happy. Because Qiao Siyi knew, ever since Luo Haofeng boarded the plane, his mood had been very good.
In fact, ever since Bai Xiaoxiao went on a business trip to City B last time and spent a few hours alone with President Luo, he had been different than before.
Qiao Siyi knew all of this was Bai Xiaoxiao’s doing.
President Luo was no longer as cold as he used to be, and she, as a secretary, no longer felt that standing beside him was like experiencing winter all year round.
Though there was a faint sense of loss in her heart, she ignored it.
This was good!
The phone rang a few times, and Mother Luo’s voice came through, “Hello, Ah Feng.”
Luo Haofeng smiled, “Mom, I have good news for you.”
“What good news? Have you arrived in G City?”
Mother Luo knew Luo Haofeng went to G City with his secretary on business, cooperating with Xiao’s company.
When she heard him talking about good news, she instinctively thought it was about business.
“Meng Ke just told me that the kidnapping case will soon be resolved. The police have identified the real culprit, proving it has nothing to do with us.”
“Really?” Mother Luo laughed on the phone, but her laughter carried a hint of sarcasm, “Who did Qiao Xiuyun offend for someone to want to kidnap her?”
Since it had nothing to do with her, Mother Luo immediately became eager to be a spectator.
She wanted to know who hated that woman so much.
Luo Haofeng frowned slightly, feeling a trace of discomfort with his mother’s attitude.
“Mom, the other party is a woman named Xu Wanqi. I don’t know her motive for kidnapping Aunt Qiao, but she’s not a good person.”
“A woman named Xu Wanqi?”
Mother Luo’s voice carried a trace of anger, “I don’t know her. Why is she framing our Bai family? Ah Feng, since you went to G City, you should meet that woman and teach her a lesson to make her remember.”
Mother Luo didn’t care who was targeting Qiao Xiuyun.
She was just angry that despicable woman dared to frame her.
If it weren’t for being framed, she would have applauded the person.
“Mom, I know, I’ll go see that Xu Wanqi when I have the time.”
“Ah Feng, why didn’t you take Ruoyi with you on your trip? Didn’t you say a few days ago that you’d take her with you?”
Luo Haofeng smiled faintly and explained calmly, “Mom, Ruoyi caught a cold in the past couple of days, so I let her rest at home. Going to G City isn’t a vacation; if I brought her, what if her condition worsened? So I brought Secretary Qiao instead.”
“Alright. But don’t have any more entanglements with the Bai family while you’re in G City, especially with Qiao Xiuyun and her daughter, to avoid them blaming us for anything next time.”
Mother Luo’s dislike for Qiao Xiuyun was not something easily dispelled.
Luo Haofeng slightly pursed his lips, “Mom, don’t bring up Aunt Qiao all the time in front of Dad. Even if you mention Aunt Qiao, don’t use a resentful tone. Those are past issues; Dad is living well with you now, isn’t he?”
