Scheme of the Official Descendant

Although Ren Yaoqi broke away from the fetters of her family in her previous lifetime, as she erroneously believed in her blood-relatives’ speech and views about sacrificing everything for the family’...

Chapter 162: Appointment (3/3)

The next day, Ren Shijia asked the nanny to prepare for Ren Yaoqi's travel early in the morning.

But before leaving, Ren Yaoqi received a letter from Ren Yaohua. Yesterday, Mrs. Luo said she was going to take her granddaughter out to buy some things to bring back to the farm, but she didn't return until late in the evening.

Mrs. Luo disappeared with her granddaughter Shui Ai.

Nanny Zhou sent people to search for the person all night long, but they still couldn't find him.

When Ren Yaoqi received the letter, he was stunned for a long time, then frowned and worried, wondering whether Mrs. Luo had escaped on her own or was captured by someone.

If she left on her own, it must be because she knew about the feud between the Zhai and Ren families but didn't want to tell her, so she slipped away secretly. If she was captured, then the person who captured her must be related to the Han family, because the Han family recognized her.

Comparing the two, she would rather have the first possibility.

After all, if Mrs. Luo left on her own, her life wouldn't be in danger. But if she was taken away by the Han family, she would most likely never come back.

Ren Yaoqi was very worried about Mrs. Luo's disappearance, so she immediately sent a message back and asked Madam Zhou to look for her, but not in a high-profile manner.

It was not until the appointed time of Si that Ren Yaoqi hurriedly boarded a carriage and left the Lin family. However, he was somewhat absent-minded the entire time in the carriage.

The drive from the Lin family to Tanji required going around most of Yunyang City, which was quite far. On the way, they also passed the street where the Lei family lived. However, because the Lei family was holding a funeral, the driver took a detour.

As the carriage approached the street where the Lei family lived, Ren Yaoqi finally managed to calm herself down. She lifted the carriage curtain and looked out from a distance. Several carriages were parked on the street where the Lei family lived, blocking most of her view. She could only see a little white.

At this time, a young man walked out of the alley. The heavy mourning clothes he wore made Ren Yao pause when she was about to let down the curtain.

The man was about twenty years old, with a stern look on his strong face. His back was straight and his steps were steady and unhurried, but Ren Yaoqi could feel that he seemed a little tired.

He walked out of the alley quickly alone, without any followers, but when he reached the intersection, he stopped involuntarily and stared at the road in front of him without moving.

Until someone seemed to be chasing him from behind, he lowered his eyes and turned his head calmly. His eyes just happened to pass by Ren Yaoqi's carriage, and he frowned and paused for a moment.

Ren Yaoqi had already lowered the car curtain at this moment.

Lei Ting, the head of the Lei family.

Ren Yaoqi leaned against the wall of the car, lost in thought.

With the memories of his previous life, Ren Yaoqi knew that the Han family was not easy to deal with. The Lei family must have run into trouble.

The bad thing is, if the Lei family can't get over this hurdle, the outcome is predictable.

The last time she reminded the Lei family about the leader of the dragon head on the Dragon Boat Festival, she might have helped them, but Mrs. Lei's identity was a fatal flaw. As long as the Han family held on, the Lei family would be in danger, even though Mrs. Lei was dead now.

If the Lei family fell so easily, the Han family would get what they wanted. However, the death of Mrs. Lei made the conflict between the Lei and Han families irreconcilable.

She needs to keep this enemy for the Han family.

So, at this critical juncture, should she help the Lei family again? This chapter has been read (please click on the next chapter to continue reading!)
