But in Zong Jize's view, it was already an established fact, but Paul flatly denied it.
"I'm sorry, Young Master Zong, I think you must have admitted the wrong person. I have been by our master's side since the party."
Just after Paul finished speaking, Old Smith still smiled and said to Zong Jize: "That's right, Young Master Zong. Paul has been busy serving me since the party and never left."
Old Smith spoke out to help Paul testify, which made Zong Jize feel that the whole thing was getting more and more wrong, so that his expression darkened a lot in an instant.
It was also at this time that Shu Zhilan, who learned from Lu Yining that Lu Dingning's whereabouts were missing, rushed over.
"Where's Dylan? Did you find her?"
Shu Zhilan came here accompanied by Lu Yining.
"Not yet. But I remember it clearly. It was the butler who informed Dylan just now that Mr. Smith wanted to talk to her about something before she left."
Zong Jize reiterated this again, and at the same time gave Shu Zhilan a look. His purpose was to let Shu Zhilan understand the current situation.
Compared with him and Lu Yining, Shu Zhilan knew these members of the Smith family better.
Let her know the ins and outs of this whole matter, and she will be able to find Lu Dingning faster.
"Honey, have you looked for Dylan? It's almost time for her to take the stage, and all my friends are waiting!" After receiving Zong Jize's gaze, Shu Zhilan immediately took Old Smith's arm affectionately and asked.
While asking these questions, Shu Zhilan's lips still had a nice curve.
But in fact, her state of mind is not as calm as she appears on the surface.
It's just that Shu Zhilan, who has lived in such an environment for many years, knows better than anyone else that it takes more and more calmness to find Lu Dingning in this situation.
However, Old Smith, who was intimately held by Shu Zhilan, said something like this to her: "No. Paul and I have been greeting guests at the party just now. Why do we have time to ask Dylan to talk about things?"
After getting such an answer from old Smith, whether it was Shu Zhilan, Lu Yining on one side, or Zong Jize, all of them turned ugly.
At this moment, those people on the side also noticed that those members of the Smith family seemed to be gathered together, but they couldn't see the ruthless stepson of the Smith family, and started talking about it.
"Sorry, I know you're desperate to find Dylan right now, but I can't say I lost Dylan just because of that."
Amidst the discussion among the crowd, Old Smith still said so.
And these words made the faces of the three of them even worse.
Especially on Lu Yining's side, he even wanted to rush up and pull out the old man's beard, and then fight with the group of people talking about Ning Ning.
That's right, when a few of them were talking about Lu Dingning's disappearance, many people around him began to discuss that it might be the revenge of the Clive family. Some people even said that whether Lu Dingning can come back alive this time is still unknown.
However, just when Lu Yining's impulse to fight and make trouble was rapidly multiplying, Zong Jize suddenly grabbed his wrist.
While Shu Zhilan was talking to Old Smith, Zong Jize had already quietly activated a complete positioning system that he had just received from Geng Qing.
Then, a really hasty alarm sounded from Old Smith.
When this voice came out, those people who had come to the party in costumes before panicked.
Because of the sound, it was similar to a fire alarm device.
No, the atmosphere of joy, singing and dancing just now suddenly disappeared.
Then, many people started rushing towards the exit of the party, and even the servants started running away.
Only the group in their corner remained standing.
Zong Jize and Shu Zhilan's mother and son will never leave this place until they meet Lu Dingning.
Paul, on the other hand, was busy helping Old Smith find the thing that was making a strange alarm sound on him.
After searching, they found a mobile phone from Old Smith.
But this phone doesn't know what's going on, no matter how they press it, they can't stop the phone from making such a harsh alarm sound.
And when Paul and Old Smith were frantically operating the mobile phone, Zong Jize suddenly said: "I gave this mobile phone to Dylan, and the system installed in it is the DN series computer system to be released by Zhuo Nuo. The Drano phone on the phone is completely different, so it can use the tracking system when it is stolen, and use the reserve battery to unlock it directly and activate the alarm device."
What Zong Jize said caused obvious changes in the expressions of Old Smith and Paul.
And Shu Zhilan and Lu Yining stared straight at Old Smith, as if they already treated Old Smith as a criminal who kidnapped Lu Dingning.
Zong Jize continued to say: "Mr. Smith, I think it's better for you to return Dylan's mobile phone and tell her whereabouts."
Regardless of Zong Jize's seemingly calm and decisive handling of these matters, in fact, only he himself knows how panicked he is.
Once Ning Ning's true gender is discovered, it will be quite dangerous.
Besides, Ningning may still be pregnant now...
In this case, no matter how good she is at hitting, once someone hits her in the stomach, it will be fatal.
Just thinking of these, Zong Jize felt like his blood was about to be frozen.
But under this circumstance, the cunning old Smith actually said: "Actually, Paul picked up this mobile phone at the party just now, and temporarily handed it over to me for safekeeping."
Then, he even took the initiative to send Lu Dingning's phone to Shu Zhilan: "Since this phone belongs to Dylan, then return it to her for me."
"No...you must have met Dylan. Darling, you know I can't live without her, call her out."
Taking over the noisy mobile phone from old Smith, Shu Zhilan's emotions broke down a bit.
At this moment, she no longer cared about those so-called self-cultivation and temperament, and said with tears in her eyes.
"Stop messing around, I said I didn't see her, but I didn't!" Seemingly annoyed by Shu Zhilan's tearful eyes, Old Smith turned and left.
After Paul bowed down to greet them, he also left with Old Smith.
Just like that, there were only three of them left in the hall.
Shu Zhilan panicked because of Lu Dingning's disappearance.
On the other hand, Lu Yining was about to take off his wig and rush up to beat up old man Smith.
But just when Lu Yining was about to tear off his wig, Zong Jize suddenly came to Shu Zhilan: "Please contact William and ask him to bring Ningning's bodyguards to surround Smith Manor."
If it was really old Smith who tied Lu Dingning up, they must have wanted to take advantage of today's grand party to transport Lu Dingning out.
After all, the development of the Smith family to this point is inseparable from the dedication of Lu Dingning, a vicious stepson.
