When she got out of the elevator, the property service staff behind said to the man in the door: "I'm very sorry, sir, she said she knew you."
Mu Shaoling nodded.
The property staff just left.
Looking at the man in the door, Ruan Bai asked cautiously: "Have you seen my grandpa?"
She said that she walked out of the other party's life, and now she is the one who came to the door at night and asked him about things.
Ruan Bai had to be cautious and embarrassed, but in order to find her grandfather, she had no choice but to lose face.
"What's wrong with your grandpa, isn't he at home?" Mu Shaoling lowered his head to fasten the waistband of his nightgown, but upon hearing this, he raised his head and asked her.
Ruan Bai observed his expression and eyes, and found that he really didn't seem to know where her grandfather had gone.
The sudden drop in her heart made her feel at a loss, she shook her head, and she pressed the elevator with trembling hands, intending to go downstairs.
Seeing her pale cheeks and twinkling eyes, Mu Shaoling went out and walked to the elevator.
When she was struggling to cry but didn't dare to cry, he threw her on the sofa, put his arms in front of her, and asked in a deep voice with his black eyes indifferent, "What happened? Tell me!"
There is water in Ruan Bai's eyes.
At this time, two little guys came out of the room.
Limply and dazedly hugging a little white bear, rubbing his eyes, Zhan Zhan put on his slippers backwards because of his anxiety, staring blankly at the adult in a strange posture in front of the sofa.
"Go back to sleep, Dad is talking to your auntie Xiaobai." Mu Shaoling turned his head, frowning.
Zhan Zhan pursed his lips, did not speak, and took his sister back to the room together. Before returning to the room, he reluctantly glanced at Auntie Xiaobai several times...
Ruan Bai also glanced at the two children.
However, she couldn't help but laugh.
The phone rang.
Ruan Bai seemed to be waiting for some news, so he immediately took it out to read.
It turned out that the WeChat message was sent by Li Ni.
Li Ni said in a straight voice: "I didn't see your grandpa, what's the matter? Xiaobai, don't scare me, is grandpa lost? Where are you? I'll go there now, don't be afraid!"
Mu Shaoling took her cell phone and replied for her: "No trouble."
After finishing speaking, he took her mobile phone and stared at her eyes hidden under the thick eyelashes: "I'm going to get dressed, wait for me."
He took her mobile phone away, so she could only wait.
This man probably only wears a suit and shirt 365 days a year, talking and doing things in a rigid manner anytime, anywhere.
When Ruan Bai followed him out of the apartment building, he attracted the attention of several people at the front desk of the property.
"This is a couple, isn't it?" A girl at the front desk asked another lady on duty.
The lady on duty who was busy checking the information raised her head, looked at the two people who went out, and said, "A couple is right, but I feel that these two people are very different, otherwise, how could that woman not have a key? Enter the door We have to send someone to help her find that man, lover, I think the kind of lover who is trapped."
"Maybe they got into trouble. Anyway, in my opinion, that man's face and eyes are full of love for this woman, unlike a ruthless rich man who treats his lover..."
The elder sister on duty was surprised, "Are you making an international joke? This kind of ordinary woman, who can catch a lot of people, has the right to quarrel with that gentleman? Is she tired of working, or has she never been dumped before and wants to taste what it feels like to be dumped? "
The girl at the front desk curled her lips and said to the lady on duty: "Where are you catching a lot of ordinary ones? If you look like this with pure makeup, you can go to the street and catch one for me. You don't need to catch more, just one. If you catch it, you will be counted." sharp."
The lady on duty stopped talking.
...
Mu Shaoling drove the car out from the parking lot.
The black Land Rover stopped at the door of the apartment, the window was down, he looked at her, "The subway will stop soon, are you going to take a taxi somewhere? I'm afraid the money in the wallet will be used up soon, don't find grandpa , your father's illness has no money to treat." He forced her to get in the car and accept his help.
Whether it was before or after she broke up with him, she was using her own money to treat her father and support herself, and now she has an elderly grandpa.
The burden is too heavy.
She cherishes every penny in her wallet.
Ruan Bai got into the car, leaning his head on the car seat silently.
"Do you have any relatives at home, have you asked?" Mu Shaoling drove steadily, planning to take her home again, in case the old man really just lost his way, and now he is home and can't get in.
"All the relatives, the grandpa I can't get in touch with certainly can't get in touch either." Ruan Bai thought about it, and said.
In the car, Mu Shaoling called his grandfather again.
Mr. Mu said that he had never seen Mr. Ruan, and asked what happened.
Mu Shaoling prevaricated, pressed the hang up button, and then looked at her: "Call the police first, don't worry, grandpa will be fine."
If she calls the police, the police’s reply will be that the case can only be opened for investigation after 48 hours of disappearance...
Mu Shaoling is rich, powerful, and well-connected, so he only made a phone call to Dong Zijun to arrange it.
Dong Zijun came forward alone, explained the whole story, and handed over Mr. Ruan's photo and information to the police.
...
Driving back to the community where the apartment was rented, Mu Shaoling walked behind Ruan Bai and went upstairs together.
Opening the door, the room was pitch black and very quiet, and grandpa didn't come back.
Go downstairs again.
Mu Shaoling accompanied her through every corner of the community, and even extended to many streets outside the community, but there was no trace of the old man...
The weather at the end of September is cold at night.
Ruan Bai couldn't tell whether it was cold skin or cold heart, his body trembled.
The police checked the surveillance cameras near the community, but there was no result for a while. There are more bad surveillance cameras than good ones.
"Grandpa, are you going back to town?" Mu Shaoling asked as he walked behind Ruan Bai.
Ruan Bai looked back at him, the water in her eyes hadn't dissipated in the past few hours, and in the middle of the night, she was like a fragile wretch, not daring to go head-to-head with anyone or anything in this world.
Mu Shaoling stepped forward, grabbed her small hand with a big hand, wrapped it tightly, and pointed to the car parked on the street in the distance with one finger, and said calmly: "Let's go back to the town to have a look, and leave it to the police." .”
Ruan Bai had no choice.
On the way back to the town, Mu Shaoling insisted on giving her the suit jacket.
She is indeed cold.
"Take a nap, I'll call you when we arrive." Mu Shaoling lit a cigarette, and rolled down the car window to let the smoke escape.
Driving late at night, he doesn't smoke because he is afraid that he will not be energetic enough.
Ruan Bai closed her eyes for a while, and then opened them again. Every late night when she couldn't sleep, she tried to transform the love she had for Mu Shaoling into the affection between relatives.
This way, there is no guilt.
The man who was concentrating on driving noticed her sleeping inattentively, and asked, "What are you thinking?"
Looking at Mu Shaoling, she said calmly: "I was thinking...you are my boss, boss, maybe I can still recognize you as my brother..."
The man driving the car flicked the ashtray into the ashtray, as if hearing a joke, he opened his indifferent lips and said, "Brother? Do you want a brother who wants to sleep with you every day?"
