Chapter 276 The Police Has Come Again?

Bai Yongwei was in a good mood today because Ji Yan and Ji Xue returned from abroad.

“Mom, I want to have a dance party to let everyone know I am back!” Ji Xue said in the car. When they left City S, they were down and out like underdogs.

None of her girlfriends who used to fawn on her said goodbye to her. They didn’t even show up.

“I will let those ugly women know that I will always live a better life than they!”

Ji Yan turned his head and looked at her impatiently. “Do you think you can still live the same life as before? What did I say on the plane? If you make trouble again, we won’t help you.”

“Mom, look at him!” Ji Xue spoke to Bai Yongwei angrily.

Bai Yongwei said impatiently, “Your brother is right! Everything is changed, and you should keep a low profile.”

“So I can’t have a dance party?” Ji Xue asked incredulously. “Then why did I come back?”

“I think there will be a charity dinner soon. I will inform Xia Wan and ask her to take you with her.” Bai Yongwei thought, “Until then, you should stay at home.”

Ji Xue felt angry, but when Bai Yongwei gave her a warning look, she did not dare retort. She’d already witnessed how formidable her mother was. They didn’t have anything when they first arrived in the US.

Then an owner of a shipping company fell in love with Bai Yongwei at first sight and they quickly married.

“The boss of the shipping company had a wife. He divorced his wife before marrying Bai Yongwei.” A Miao looked at the information on her hand. “This woman is really something!”

He Shishi sneered, “Just seductive tricks and low class ones at that.”

“At least, she was very lucky…” A Miao put the paper down.

The boss got sick and died two years later, so Bai Yongwei inherited all his property.

“Unfortunately, she has two unexceptional children.” He Shishi shrugged her shoulders. “Her son is self-righteous and stupid and her daughter… besides being self-righteous and stupid, she is retarded.”

A Miao suddenly chimed in, “They came back as well?”

“Yes, today.” He Shishi glanced at her. “Have you become stupid after giving birth? How can you not know about your enemy’s whereabouts!”

“I know!” A Miao peeled an orange. “Shen Xinglan did tell me, but I didn’t care.” She handed half the orange to He Shishi. “But she won’t be able to target us in such a short time.”

By the time Bai Yongwei knew that those people were missing, three or four days had passed. She began to worry that they would betray her.

“I think it is a good opportunity!” Ji Yan said with a smile, “Mom, you also think that Shen Xinglan has them, right?”

“Who else then?” Bai Yongwei said affirmatively. “He must want them to betray me.”

Ji Yan nodded solemnly. “I remember that you telling me you only contacted them through the internet and they didn’t even know if you are a man or a woman.”

“Yes! I transferred money to them online too.” Bai Yongwei laughed. “They have no evidence to betray me!”

“But we have!” Ji Yan looked at her. “Do those missing people have families? If we tell them their families disappeared because they offended some people…”

“They offended Shen Xinglan, so they were kidnapped!”

Bai Yongwei immediately understood and laughed, “I have a good son. You solved my big problem!”

It was the weekend. Little Demon stood at the door and looked coldly at the person outside.

“Police investigation. Please let me in.”

It was unknown how many times the police had come to the Shens’ house. This time was different because the one who came was a policewoman and she looked very unfriendly.

“Investigate what?” Little Demon was not afraid of her. She looked at her with both hands folded.

“If you don’t cooperate, I will charge you for obstructing official duties.” The policewoman was very tough. “I want to see Shen Xinglan.”

It was the first time that Little Demon heard the police call her Boss by his name. She frowned and said, “He is not here.”

“I called his office, and the reception said he had already left.” The policewoman once again showed her work permit. “I am doing my duty, and you had better get out of the way.”

“Deng Yue?” Ling Lang and Le Yi came for dinner carrying Chu Bai. They had dinner together every weekend.

The policewoman turned her head. “Ling Lang?”

“Why are you here?” Ling Lang looked at Little Demon and Deng Yue.

Deng Yue was also looking at her. She glanced at Le Yi and the cute Chu Bai who was blinking his big eyes, and then she said with a gloomy face, “I am here for a case.”

She turned her eyes to Little Demon and said, “Some people have arrogant maids just because they have some money.”

“You misunderstood. She is not a maid.” Ling Lang faintly said, “She is Madam’s personal bodyguard.”

Deng Yue was a little surprised, but soon she impatiently said, “I know that you and Shen Xinglan are friends. Please tell him that I want to see him.”

“Is Shen back?” Ling Lang did not answer her but asked Little Demon.

Little Demon shook her head. “He called an hour ago and said he was on his way.”

“Why don’t you come in and wait?” Le Yi nodded at Deng Yue with a distant smile.

Ling Lang looked at him. “I guess Shen Xinglan is shopping for A Miao again.”

This time, Little Demon got out of the way as she said, “Since you know her, come in.”

Deng Yue glanced at Ling Lang with a complex look of anger in her eyes, and stepped into the villa.

“Bai… Bai!”

As soon as she entered, she saw a chubby baby, standing in the walker. A teddy bear was next to her. The strange thing was that the teddy bear which was made of an unknown material was actually standing…

“Sister!” Chu Bai kicked his short legs, getting free from his mother, stumbled, and ran toward Yaya.

Yaya jumped hard in the walker, and after Chu Bai reached her, she strove hard to climb out. Chu Bai also hugged her in an attempt to help. His face had turned red, yet Yaya still could not come out.

“Yaya still can’t walk?” Le Yi laughed and took the struggling little girl out and put her on the side of the carpet. Then Chu Bai toddled over.

A Miao came out of the restaurant. “Don’t help her. She just doesn’t want to walk and is jealous that Chu Bai can run. Eh? Is she your friend?”

“Miss.” Little Demon whispered into her ear.

A Miao nodded, and her expression changed. “So you’re a police officer. Please have a seat!”

“We used to be colleagues, but we haven’t seen each other in a long time.” Ling Lang sat down and looked at A Miao.

A Miao immediately understood what she meant——”I am not familiar with her. You don’t need to be too polite.”

“Hello, Mrs. Shen.” Deng Yue gave her ID to A Miao.

A Miao gestured and said, “Officer Deng, please have a seat!”

“Thank you, Mrs. Shen.” Deng Yue sat down with a serious expression. “I would like to ask you a few questions, is that okay?”

A Miao frowned. The female cop sounded polite, but her tone and expression was unhappy. She took a peek at Ling Lang, who nodded at her slightly.

“Go ahead. I’ll do my best to answer.”

Deng Yue was obviously unsatisfied with her words but didn’t comment. She asked, “Do you know what Shen Xinglan is doing outside?

“Didn’t you find out my husband’s identity before you came?” A Miao asked her, “I don’t think there’s anyone who doesn’t know him in City S.”

“Mrs. Shen!” Deng Yue suddenly raised her voice. “Please cooperate with me and answer my questions directly.”

Ling Lang slammed a glass of water on the table. “Deng Yue, do you want to be transferred again?”

“What do you mean?” Deng Yue stared at her.

“You know very well what I mean.” Ling Lang said faintly, “As your colleague, I have to remind you where you are right now.”

Deng Yue’s face turned green and then white. Then she finally took a deep breath. “Mrs. Shen, I’m sorry. I am worried about the case. After all, five people are missing.”

“You mean, you are suspecting that my husband has something to do with the missing persons?” A Miao said with amazement. “On what basis?”

“Because the families of the five people went to the police station to report the case. They said that their loved ones had offended Mr. Shen because of some inappropriate remarks on the Internet.”

A Miao covered her mouth. “Why would we want to do such a thing?”

“That’s why I came to talk to Mr. Shen.” Deng Yue’s attitude was much better. “When will he be back?”

As they were talking, sounds of activity drifted in from the main door. Deng Yue saw the beautiful little baby crawl quickly outside. To her surprise, the teddy bear was walking behind her.

“Dad…Dad…” Yaya crawled to Shen Xinglan’s side and hugged his legs.

Shen Xinglan bent down and picked her up. “Did you lose your temper today, Yaya?”

“No!” Yaya glared at Shen Xinglan with her watery eyes and kissed him on his cheek. “Miss… you!”

Little Demon had already informed Shen I that a police officer had come, so Shen Xinglan was prepared.

“I went to buy you a cake.” Shen Xinglan went to A Miao and kissed her with Yaya in his arms, and then handed the cake to Little Demon.

A Miao smiled happily. “Hmm! Right, Officer Deng is here to see you.” She looked at Deng Yue.

“Mr. Shen.” Deng Yue had seen Shen Xinglan’s photos in the magazine and she always thought that they were all photoshopped. When she saw Shen Xinglan in person, she was shocked…

“How enchanting!” She couldn’t help but think of this online language. When she glanced at Le Yi, she began to feel uncomfortable. “Ling Lang’s husband is as handsome in person as he is on TV.”

“He looks so princely…”

“What can I do for you?” Shen Xinglan sat down, wrapping his arms around A Miao.

Deng Yue recovered and saw his beautiful but cold eyes. She calmed down and said, “Mr. Shen, do you know that the people who had offended you online disappeared last week?”

“No, I don’t.” Shen Xinglan shook his head with no expression. “I never pay attention to ants.”

“…” Deng Yue couldn’t help but clench her fist. “Then you also wouldn’t know that someone exposed them on the Internet for under-the-table transactions, I guess?”

Shen Xinglan looked at her. “Do you have a hearing problem, Officer Deng? I told you, I never pay attention to ants.”

The man opposite looked at her, as if she was an ant. The dissatisfaction in Deng Yue’s heart suddenly broke out, and she stood up with a cold face.

“Then, please come with me!”

“Where to? The police station?” Shen Xinglan stared at her with sarcasm. “Are you sure you dare ask me to go to the police station?”
