Jiang Mianmian gripped the hem of her clothes tightly, her fingertips trembling slightly.

"As expected, she messed with Ranran's computer," she whispered. "Ranran's computer had a lot of company documents on it, and Ranran was completely unguarded in front of her!"

“That should be it.” The detective nodded. “After Cheng Suyue stole the information, she deliberately leaked it to that rival company. And that little-known company was founded by the people we interrogated. Their goal was to launder their identities, and the big boss behind them is none other than Cheng Suyue!”

Jiang Mianmian gasped and leaned weakly against Huo Junyu.

"Is split personality really that terrifying?" Jiang Can murmured. "She's completely a different person!"

"Yes." Huo Zhixing looked down at her. "I think the only way now is to find her as soon as possible and bring her under control."

“Actually, Lu Ran had already contacted the sanatorium,” Huo Junyu said. “But Lu Ran’s intention was to go with her mother and take care of her.”

Jiang Can's expression changed. "How can that be! We can't drag Ranran into this too; she's going to marry Yangyang!"

"Mom, didn't you want them to postpone it..."

"At the time, we thought Cheng Suyue had some ulterior motive, and your mother and I were afraid that Yangyang would be taken advantage of, so we asked them to postpone the wedding," Huo Zhixing said in a deep voice. "Now that the truth is out, Cheng Suyue has no ulterior motives; she just has mental problems. It would be better for Yangyang to marry his wife as soon as possible, at least our family can protect her!"

Jiang Mianmian and Huo Junyu exchanged a knowing smile and gently intertwined their fingers.

“We know that Ranran is a filial and good child,” Jiang Can said softly. “She didn’t want her mother to suffer alone in the nursing home, so she would rather stay with her herself, and even… break up with Yangyang.”

"Don't worry, Mom!" Jiang Mianmian thought for a moment, "Leave this to me!"

Before Huo Junyu could react, he heard Jiang Mianmian pick up the phone and call Ayi, speaking with the air of a wealthy Lu family heiress.

"Uncle Yi, I need your help... Please take your men and find Cheng Suyue immediately!... Hmm, you can also say hello to the uncles and elders in the underworld and ask them for a favor. I will definitely come to thank them in person later!"

After saying that, she put her phone away, looked at Huo Junyu and smiled, "You don't need to worry about this matter, just take good care of Junyang. With the power of our Lu family, finding someone won't be too difficult."

"But if Cheng Suyue is using another personality to evade our tracking, it might take us a bit more effort to find her."

Huo Junyu stared at her blankly, without saying a word.

Jiang Mianmian waved her small hand in front of his eyes, "Honey, what's wrong?"

Huo Junyu laughed and whispered in her ear, "It's nothing."

"Then why are you staring blankly?"

"I was thinking..." he smiled, his eyes narrowing, "It would be wonderful to have a gangster's daughter as my wife!"

*

For several days in a row, there was no news of Cheng Suyue.

Lu Ran thought of every place she could think of, including the small house in the old town, but there was still no trace of her mother.

Lu Ran couldn't eat or sleep, and was extremely anxious.

Huo Junyang is still lying in the hospital room, and the culprit behind all of this is her mother...

Looking through the glass of the ward, Lu Ran couldn't help but shed tears.

Jiang Mianmian sent people to continue the search while she stayed with Lu Ran at the hospital.

Huo Junyu arrived that day. As soon as he turned into the corridor, he waved to Jiang Mianmian from afar and gestured to Lu Ran not to see him.

Jiang Mianmian was taken aback, then made an excuse to run over. Huo Junyu led her to a secluded spot in the emergency exit.

"What's wrong?"

"Uncle Ayi couldn't get in touch with you just now..."

Jiang Mianmian looked down at her phone and saw several missed calls, but she had silenced it while at the hospital and hadn't heard them.

"Has Uncle Yi found Cheng Suyue?"

"Yes." Huo Junyu lowered his voice. "He said his men had been guarding the old city area and finally discovered Cheng Suyue's whereabouts yesterday."

Jiang Mianmian breathed a sigh of relief, but was also a little puzzled.

Cheng Suyue has been missing for three or four days now. How has she been coping these past few days? Even if she has developed another personality, can that personality really go without food and water?

Huo Junyu noticed her confusion and explained softly, "She took Lu Ran's money, as well as the jewelry that Junyang had given Lu Ran before, and sold them to jewelry stores. Uncle Yi said that some jewelry store owners contacted him and showed him the photos they had taken. Because these were not ordinary pieces of jewelry, these owners dared not accept them, they just took photos. Among them... was the ring my mother gave me, the 'Golden Jade Union'."

"What?!" Jiang Mianmian was shocked.

“That thing is priceless, and of course, any knowledgeable shop owner wouldn’t dare to accept it. But there’s an advantage to that: the shop owner kept Cheng Suyue’s contact information, which is why Uncle Yi’s men were able to follow the trail to the old city area.”

Jiang Mianmian sighed.

Lu Ran is her cousin, but they have completely different lives.

Although she was forced to separate from her parents when she was young, she was fortunate to meet a kind adoptive family who allowed her to grow up in love.

But what about Lu Ran?

She was not a blessed life when she came into this world.

Lu Ming used her as a tool, and Cheng Suyue had a dual personality.

She was caught in the middle, it was really tough for her...

"Oh, right, there's something else I need to tell you." Huo Junyu ruffled her hair. "Jingnan and Pei Nian will be back soon."

"Really?" Jiang Mianmian finally smiled.

"Yes, Pei Nian's injuries are almost healed. Jing Nan said that she's been saying she wants to go back to Yangcheng and come to see you these past few days." Huo Junyu bent down, bringing his face close to hers, and said half-jokingly, "Looks like my wife is still the most charming. The 'Nian' in Pei Nian's name is you, isn't it?"

"Huo Junyu!" Jiang Mianmian punched him lightly. "What nonsense are you spouting? Didn't we agree to match her up with Jingnan..."

"Don't talk about this, it makes Jingnan sad." Huo Junyu couldn't help but laugh. "When they come back, you'll see the broken heart of a naive young man!"

Jiang Mianmian burst into laughter at his joke.

"Wife, there's something I need to remind you!" Huo Junyu suddenly remembered something. "When Pei Nian comes back, don't let her get close to Ranran... I heard from Jingnan that Pei Nian has already guessed that the people who attacked her outside the city were sent by Cheng Suyue. She holds a grudge and will definitely take revenge."

“Wife,” Huo Junyu smiled faintly, “only you can control her.”
