“Xiao Xia? How is that possible? She has already disappeared…” Song Kai instinctively wanted to refute, but seeing the look from Lan Yue, he couldn’t say anything.
Lan Yue had a sweet appearance, looking like an innocent girl. But for some reason, her gaze toward the Song brothers was somewhat cold.
Lan Yue sneered, “Is she missing, or did she run away? Huh. The stepdaughter and adopted daughter of the Song family are not any different, right? They can frame my boss for poisoning and hire someone to kill. They’ve done these things before, haven’t they?”
She knew a lot about the Song family. Although her words were not polite, Song Ting was certain that she was on Song Fan’s side.
Song Ting held back his anger and asked, “Besides the transfer, do you have any other evidence? I’ll dig out Meng Xia even if I have to torture her to reveal my sister’s whereabouts.”
At this point, Gu Chen also stood up. She had already started instructing the Gu family members to find any traces related to Chen Jun, emphasizing the urgency of finding Song Fan.
Watching the concern for Song Fan from these people, Lan Yue’s attitude finally softened a bit. “I couldn’t find the call records for Meng Xia and Chen
Jun. There’s only one anonymous phone card that frequently contacted Chen
Jun. I just intercepted the last call, and Chen Jun addressed the other person as Miss Meng. However, the call was too short, and he has already turned off the phone; we can’t locate him.”
“Miss Meng?” Song Kai felt a tickle in his throat. Meng Xia had saved him, and he never wanted to think badly of that girl. But faced with the current situation, there were certain things he had to acknowledge.
Meng Xia had been missing all this time, and he couldn’t believe that the Song family, especially with Meng Yu possibly concealing information, couldn’t find her in A City.
Thinking back to the events at the banquet, he could even imagine that initially, they might have intended to target Song Fan, but due to a twist of fate, it ended up being Meng Xia.
Song Kai walked directly towards the main entrance. At this moment, he needed to mobilize every acquaintance to search for Song Fan. Song Ting understood his intention, and he also stood up. He nodded slightly to Gu Chen, indicating that controlling the situation regarding Meng Xia was crucial if she was involved.
“Wait a moment.” Gu Chen quickly stood up, showing some concern. “She is injured; we need to be quick.”
Song Ting saw the anxiety in Gu Chen’s eyes, but he didn’t inquire further. It was obvious that Song Fan’s injuries were not light. He nodded, saying, “I will spare no effort.”
“Me too,” Gu Chen said solemnly.
The news of Song Fan’s disappearance didn’t spread, and Gu Corporation directly suppressed the events of the gunfight today. The police only announced to the public that there was a clash between criminals, with no casualties among unrelated individuals. Moreover, the criminals had been captured, reassuring the general public.
In the small apartment, Meng Yu and Meng Xia were overjoyed when they learned about Song Fan’s disappearance.
“Was Song Fan kidnapped?” Meng Xia’s words carried a hint of excitement. She didn’t know who Song Fan had offended, but based on the news and what Meng Yu had told her earlier, she guessed a lot. Even if the assailant didn’t target Song Fan specifically, she was unfortunate enough to be kidnapped, and who knows, she might even be killed.
Just the thought of Song Fan being gone made Meng Xia ecstatic. With Song
Fan out of the picture, she would become the sole daughter of the Song family.
“Whether she was kidnapped or chose to disappear herself, it doesn’t matter. It would be best if she never returns in this lifetime,” Meng Yu gloated. “Regardless of her presence, our plan will continue. You don’t need to worry about these things.”
She gently touched Meng Xia’s belly and asked, “Have you felt nauseous these past few days? Has your period not come yet?”
Hearing her words, Meng Xia’s expression soured a bit, but she replied softly, “No, it hasn’t come. It’s been delayed for five or six days. But I don’t feel anything unusual.”
Meng Yu seemed extremely pleased. “Delay is good. However, it’s still uncertain whether you can conceive. I’ll bring someone in the afternoon, so be prepared. Don’t worry, I’ve instructed him, and he’ll be very gentle.”
Meng Xia’s hand tightly gripped her clothes, and her body trembled involuntarily. Thinking about the experiences of the past few days, she was on the verge of vomiting. To make her pregnant, Meng Yu arranged for a different foreign man to sleep with her every day.
“Don’t worry; once there’s a child in your womb, you’ll be Mrs. Brown,” Meng Yu stroked Meng Xia’s belly. “I heard that Jason is deeply poisoned and often in a coma. If he dies, your child will be his only legacy..”
