A fat policeman looked Zhaoshu up and down, frowned, and asked, "Did you call the police?"Zhaoshu nodded and replied gravely, "Yes, it was me.""What is the relationship between you and the missing woman?" The police officer took out a notebook, staring at Zhaoshu intently in order to capture every change in his expression."She's the wife of my boss."With that, Zhaoshu gave a sidelong glance at Lu Zhengnan, whose expression was icy cold, and the killing intent in his eyes was apparent.Zhaoshu's heart shivered in an instant, and he quickly looked away."Kidnapping is something severe. We need to communicate with the woman’s family directly. Where is your boss now?" asked the policeman.“Officer, my boss is right before your eyes. However, I cannot let you know. Please don’t blame me for lying.”“He is in China,” Zhaoshu replied calmly.After exchanging a few words with his colleague, the fat cop said in a deep voice, “You’d better inform him to come to Los Angeles as quickl
“Both of the twins are behaving weirdly. Is our Lu Family cursed or what?“Forget about them. I think I should visit the US in person to have a look at the current situation of Mengyu.”After making up his mind, Lu Zhengqing stood up from his chair and went straight to Lu Zhengbei's office.When he stepped into the room, he noticed Lu Zhengbei sitting on the sofa and reading a fashion magazine. “What an idle man!”"Zhengbei, I need to go abroad soon. I am wondering if you could allow me some time off,” Lu Zhengqing said politely.The man on the sofa lifted his head and gave him an evil smile. “Brother Zhengqing, it seems that you didn’t have enough fun in the capital city.”At the words, Lu Zhengqing was speechless. “In Lu Zhengbei’s eyes, I am probably just a playboy who cares only about enjoyment like him.“Strictly speaking, however, I am going to Los Angles to handle some private affairs. Therefore, I’d better not claim that it's work-related.“It is a personal trip and wil
Tang Mengyu swallowed and put on a calm look. "Lu Zhengbei, my brother-in-law.""Bang!"The scarred man slapped her right in her pale face and left five scarlet fingerprints.The woman instantly became dizzy and felt the left side of her face growing hot as sparks flew before her eyes. She could taste blood spreading in her mouth."Bullshit! Lu Zhengbei is in China!" With flames of fury surging up uncontrollably in his eyes, the scoundrel clenched his fists and crumpled the photos in his hand.After pausing for a few seconds, he revealed a sneer. “It seems that all the members of the Lu Family are liars.”"I'm not lying!" she explained anxiously."Bang!"Another slapping sound rang out after the noise of his hand whipping through the air. Tang Mengyu felt like the pain in her scarily swollen face was killing her, and the taste of blood inside her mouth intensified.As her hands were tied to chair, she could do nothing but gnash her teeth tightly to prevent herself from display
"A head-hunting company found this man. He looks very similar to Zhengbei. In order to make everyone believe it, he was even asked to exercise to have the same build as Zhengbei. By doing this, it was convenient for Zhengbei to get away and secretly come here to meet me."She spoke in a steady voice and looked unusually calm. It seemed that she was not lying at all.At this point, the man was not finding any holes in her story, which made him slowly despair."Is this true?"He suddenly pinched the woman's chin with his hand and stared at her eyes, wondering whether she was lying.However, she did not avoid his gaze at all, saying word by word, "It's absolutely true. If I were to lie to you, it wouldn't good for me at all."Looking at her determined eyes, he felt more confused. "This woman is Lu Zhengnan's wife, but she frankly said that she is having an affair with Lu Zhengbei."Is it because this woman is shameless, or is she lying?"After a brief silence, the man walked out o
The man remained unmoved and sneered, "Now that you have had an affair with Lu Zhengbei, he will no doubt be worried if he knows you've been kidnapped. Don't you think so?"After finishing his words, he pulled over a chair and calmly sat opposite her. He looked at her with a calm and composed expression, determined to play mind games with her.When Tang Mengyu heard his words, she thought that he had changed his mind and was trying to test her again. As a result, she replied hurriedly, "Yes, he must be anxious."Of course, she knew that Lu Zhengbei did not care about her at all and that the person who would be anxious was Lu Zhengnan."How worried he'll be if he finds out that I'm missing!"She did not want to see Lu Zhengnan suffering. That feeling was like a knife piercing her heart, a hundred times more painful than being beaten here.Thinking of this, she felt a pain like there was something biting at her heart madly, riddling it with wounds.Seeing her sad expression, the c
Lu Zhengnan frowned tightly, his eyes full of coldness."Zhengbei isn't very reliable and there's not enough time," he said word by word.Indeed, even if he took the plane immediately, he would need at least a dozen hours to get from China to Los Angeles. The kidnappers had not yet given a specific time and place. If they wanted to meet in a few hours, Lu Zhengbei would not be able to appear in time."What's more, Lu Zhengbei isn't reliable or clever. He may be my Achilles' heel rather than a helping hand."I could have considered letting him come here, if Mengyu were not involved in it. Now there must be no mistakes!"For Lu Zhengnan, what mattered most was his wife's safety rather than the protection of his identity.Wang Yuhai knew his concerns and asked with an air of amusement, "Are you afraid that there might be some mistake that will make you lose your wife?"Hearing this, Lu Zhengnan looked much sulkier and rolled his eyes."Isn't he rubbing salt in the wound?"Knowing
Lu Zhengnan saw that there was a strange number on the cell phone. He quickly picked it up and said in a deep voice, "Hello, this is Lu Zhengbei.""Is the money ready?" the man at the other end of the phone asked coldly and concisely, as if not wanting to waste any word."It's ready," Lu Zhengnan replied calmly."It's good you agree with us. At midnight you should take the money to the dock, find a yacht numbered 33, and wait for the notice there."As soon as he finished his words, the man hung up the phone, not allowing Lu Zhengnan to ask more questions.Lu Zhengnan looked down at the time on the phone. His eyes were now sharp and indifferent, and his face was as gloomy as the canopy before a rainstorm."Mengyu, wait some more time. I'll try my best to save you," Lu Zhengnan lowered his head and said to himself.In a small, dark room:After being beaten for a long time, Tang Mengyu's left face was still red and swollen while her cheek seemed to have been burned by fire, and he
This time, the scarred man hit the right side of Tang Mengyu's face, leaving a new five-fingered mark. The wound inside her mouth, which had already stopped bleeding, cracked open again. Bright red blood flowed down from the corners of her mouth, mixing with the tear stains on her face and making her face look even more appalling."How dare you lie to me!" The man glared at her and scolded her in a furious and even slightly jocular manner, "B*tch! If I don't beat you today, I'll have to apologize to you tomorrow!"After that, he lifted his right leg and kicked Tang Mengyu's belly directly. She was in so much pain that she broke out in a cold sweat and her teeth chattered, but she just bit her lower lip tightly without making a sound.When the scarred man looked at her, the anger in his heart grew stronger. He punched her twice more, and then his anger subsided.At this moment, because of the mistreatment of the scarred man, Tang Mengyu went as pale as a ghost, and her hair was in a
