Mingyao answered in a panic, "Dad, I didn't."

She gripped her phone tightly, choking back tears as she explained, "When I was at the ancestral home, my grandfather looked at my sister and me and thought of my mother."

He said he felt guilty towards his mother, so he wanted to take some time to visit her in Haidu.

"I... I just remembered, that's why I specifically told you."

Mingyao choked up, sounding very aggrieved.

Su Qiqiang was skeptical, but Mingyao continued, "Dad, let me see Mom quickly."

“If I knew about my mother’s condition and told my grandfather, he wouldn’t want to visit her anymore.”

She compromised and yielded.

After careful consideration, Su Qiqiang said in a deep voice, "Alright, wait for me outside the Pei family mansion tomorrow night."

Mingyao blinked: "Why aren't we going to the apartment?"

Why are you talking so much nonsense?

Su Qiqiang said through gritted teeth.

Mingyao obediently replied with an "oh," not daring to ask any more questions.

After hanging up the phone, Mingyao made a special call to Zhong Ruyi.

Zhong Ruyi rushed over to visit Mingyao, and seeing her haggard appearance, her eyes showed a hint of anger.

"Is it because Pei Siyu treats you badly?"

"You brat, I'll go teach him a lesson right now!"

Mingyao held Zhong Ruyi's hand and shook her head. "Sister Zhong, he is very good to me."

"I called you here today because I have something else to discuss."

She took a sip of juice, a wry smile appearing on her face: "Sister Zhong, I think you're following me at night."

Zhong Ruyi looked at Mingyao suspiciously and asked strangely, "Why did you make me follow you out of the blue?"

Mingyao held the juice cup in both hands, bit her lip, and after a moment of contemplation, said, "Sister, my father has imprisoned my mother."

She tried to control her surging emotions, but her voice still trembled slightly.

Mingyao took a deep breath and continued in a low voice, "The reason I impersonated Su Xueya is because my father kidnapped my mother."

Mingyao could no longer hold back her tears, which streamed down her face.

"My mother and I depend on each other for survival."

“My father, in order to curry favor with the Pei family, took my mother away without my permission while she was hospitalized and I was not by her side.”

“I know it’s wrong to lie, but I have to force myself to marry Pei Siyu for my mother’s sake.”

She choked up as she told Zhong Ruyi the reason why she had impersonated Su Xueya.

Zhong Ruyi clenched her fists and gritted her teeth: "I never thought your father was such a bastard!"

Mingyao continued, sobbing, "My sister can't get pregnant, so she asked me to give birth to her child instead."

"Once the baby is born, my mother and I might..."

Mingyao looked at Zhong Ruyi earnestly: "My father will take me to find my mother tonight."

"I hope Sister Zhong can follow behind and find the hospital where my mother is hiding."

"I need to get my mother out of his control as soon as possible."

Zhong Ruyi nodded and tenderly helped Mingyao wipe away her tears.

"Okay, leave this to me."

"I will do everything I can to help you."

The following evening, Mingyao waited near the Pei family mansion.

Before getting into the car, Su Qiqiang checked Mingyao's belongings and phone.

After confirming that there were no tracking devices on her phone or person, they allowed Mingyao to get into the car.

After Mingyao got into the car, Su Qiqiang tossed her an eye mask and told her to wear it.

Mingyao put on the blindfold, and only then did Su Qiqiang start the car.

The car swayed, and Mingyao twisted her fingers, pinning her hopes on Zhong Ruyi.

After meeting Mingyao, Zhong Ruyi specifically sent someone to investigate Su Qiqiang.

You don't know until you investigate, and what you find is shocking.

Zhong Ruyi discovers that Su Qiqiang is a scumbag no less than Lin Bin.

She hated Lin Bin to the core and vowed to teach Su Qiqiang a lesson.

She made thorough preparations for this.

Zhong Ruyi followed Su Qiqiang's car for a while, and after confirming the license plate number, she sent the license plate number to her subordinates who were waiting on the road.

They will chase after Su Qiqiang's car as soon as they see it.

It has to be said that Su Qiqiang was very wary.

To avoid being tracked, he took a circuitous route.

They even took a back road.

In the end, only two of Su Qiqiang's men remained as clues.

Unexpectedly, during the chase, Su Qiqiang crossed the road on a yellow light, and in the end, his two henchmen were also shaken off.

"They're all useless!"

Zhong Ruyi flew into a rage and berated her subordinates severely.

Hu Haichuan poured Zhong Ruyi a glass of water and gently comforted her, "Don't be so angry, there might still be room for maneuver."

"Su Qiqiang is too cunning!"

"If we don't catch them this time, who knows what will happen next time..."

Zhong Ruyi felt guilty: "I promised her, and I didn't keep my promise. How am I going to explain this?"

at the same time.

Su Qiqiang stopped the car and let Mingyao get out.

Su Qiqiang stared at Mingyao with a sinister look.

Meeting his sharp, knife-like gaze, Mingyao timidly lowered her head.

Su Qiqiang asked coldly, "Did you send someone to follow me?"

Mingyao's heart skipped a beat; she hadn't expected Su Qiqiang to be so perceptive.

She shook her head in fear: "I...I don't know anything."

"Mom is in Dad's hands, so I don't dare to upset Dad."

As she spoke, her eyes gradually reddened.

She stammered, "What will I do if Dad gets upset and refuses to treat Mom?"

She looked earnestly at Su Qiqiang, tears welling in her eyes as she defended herself.

"Dad, you have to believe me!"

Seeing Mingyao crying uncontrollably, Su Qiqiang said fiercely, "It seems you still have some self-awareness!"

"If I find out you're doing anything underhanded behind my back, you'll never see her again for the rest of your life!"
