Chapter 176 I Know You're Back

After making the decision, Xu Zhengnan and I flew across the country together.

I feel a lot more at ease with him around.

We tacitly agreed not to mention my moving out of the apartment. The most important thing at the moment was Li Qingming's issue.

After landing, someone came to pick us up. It was Lian Qingqing.

Lian Qingqing greeted me warmly, "Li Yue!"

"Qingqing, why are you here?" I asked in surprise.

"The company sent me to pick up Xu Zhengnan. After all, he and I are old classmates," Lian Qingqing replied with a smile.

"Thank you. I'll just take a ride." I replied a little embarrassedly.

"Get in the car." Xu Zhengnan said.

After we got in the car, he gave Lian Qingqing an address. I searched it on the navigation and found that it would take eight hours to drive there.

Lian Qingqing was straightforward and set off directly without caring about the distance and time at all.

Along the way, she gossiped to me about Shen Yixiao.

We were classmates in high school. She knew about the immature love story between Shen Yixiao and I back then, but she didn't know what happened after I dropped out of school.

After hearing me say that Lu Xiaoyun had actually miscarried four children, even Qingqing was so angry that she took a selfie with the steering wheel. I was worried that she would split the steering wheel.

"So scumbag? Then those things on the Internet are all fake. What they said was just a deal. If it was a deal, wouldn't it be better to just give birth to the first one? I didn't expect Shen Yixiao to be such a person. So shameless!" Lian Qingqing cursed indignantly.

She added, "Did you know that he was always showing off his affection online in the past two years? I was very envious at the time, but I didn't expect that the glory was so disgusting behind it."

I smiled and said, "The truth is in a simple and ordinary life. Showing affection is not necessarily true happiness."

Lian Qingqing agreed very much.

With someone like her around to liven up the atmosphere, riding in a car isn't so boring anymore.

My heart began to hang in the air until the car arrived outside a small Chinese-style courtyard house.

My parents are inside.

"We're here, let's get off." Xu Zhengnan got off the car first, and I followed.

I wanted to invite Lian Qingqing to come down for a cup of tea, but she knew we had something to deal with and refused me.

Watching the car go away, I looked away and swallowed unconsciously, feeling very nervous.

After Xu Zhengnan rang the doorbell, footsteps were heard from inside, and my mother's slightly nervous voice rang out, "Who is it?"

"Aunt Bai, it's me." Xu Zhengnan spoke.

The door opened quickly, and when my mother saw me coming back with her, tears immediately flowed from her eyes. She hurried over to hug me and said, "Xiaoyue, you're finally back. Are you stupid? You didn't want to be with Shen Yixiao, so why did you come back? Why did you run abroad by yourself? We can't contact you, and your father and I are so worried."

The emotions I had been holding back broke down at my mother's words, and tears began to flow.

"Mom, I'm sorry." I apologized while choking.

"It's good to be home. Come on, let's go in first." My mother took my hand and walked into the house.

My father knew I was back and was sitting on the sofa with a gloomy face. I felt nervous when I saw him.

I called out, "Dad."

"I don't have a daughter like you, don't call me." My father replied coldly.

My mother hurriedly stopped him, "That's enough. When we didn't know where your daughter was, you were so worried that you couldn't sleep every night. You asked your friends for information. Now that your daughter is back, you are being rude again."

My dad got anxious when he heard this. "What nonsense are you talking about? I just had trouble sleeping recently. How could I be worried about her?"

“Okay, okay, don’t worry.” My mother was too lazy to argue with my father. “Anyway, our daughter is back, so don’t cause trouble. Next, we just need to find Mingming and our family will be reunited.”

I was surprised, was my dad worried about me during the time I lost contact?

"Zhengnan, sit down and have a cup of tea." My dad ignored us and just greeted Xu Zhengnan, "I'm a little angry about Mingming. Shen Yixiao, that little scoundrel, has a hard-to-change nature. I'm really worried that he'll hurt Mingming."

Xu Zhengnan followed my dad to sit down at the tea table, and the two began to discuss how to deal with Li Qingming's matter.

I couldn't help but walk over and wanted to discuss it together.

My father was just about to scold me when Xu Zhengnan poured me a cup of tea. Although he didn't say anything, his attitude was very clear. He wanted me to sit down and have tea and discuss the matter together.

Xu Zhengnan's actions made my father give up the urge to scold me. He frowned, snorted and said nothing.

"Chen Yixiao's purpose is to make me show up, so he took Li Qingming away. I will go to see him and ask him to send Li Qingming back." I mustered up the courage to say to my dad.

"Do you think you're smart? If you go see Shen Yixiao, he'll send Li Qingming back, and maybe both of you will be detained!" My dad said angrily.

I was silent. Shen Yixiao was not a trustworthy person. If he wanted to take revenge on me, he might not be willing to let Li Qingming go even if he saw me.

Xu Zhengnan also objected, "It's too dangerous for you to go see him. He's desperate now, and there's no telling what he might do."

"Yeah, that's right." I nodded.

After discussing for a while, we couldn't find a good solution, so my mother cooked some food for us to eat first.

After dinner, I went to the bedroom to rest and sent a message to Qiu Xinlian to tell her that I had returned.

Then I tried to log in to my previous accounts. Some of them I couldn’t find because I didn’t have my phone number, but for some I remembered the passwords and logged in successfully.

As soon as I got on board, I received countless messages.

Shen Yixiao: Wife, I will not give up looking for you.

Shen Yixiao: I will take good care of our brother. Remember to tell me when you come back.

Shen Yixiao: You are so cruel. You destroyed all the paintings of me. You also threw away our pair of clay dolls, right?

Shen Yixiao: I miss you, can you come back?

He was like a lunatic, sometimes sending angry messages, sometimes begging messages. The latest message was sent last night.

The second was the message from Xu Zhengnan, which stayed for two days when I flew abroad. He didn’t talk nonsense like Shen Yixiao. After realizing that I didn’t reply, he stopped wasting time on nonsense.

And Meng Zicheng: Sister-in-law, where have you been? Brother Xiao knows he was wrong, let’s meet and have a chat.

Liang Feng: Where have you been? Write back.

I didn't read them carefully one by one, I just cleared all the information after scanning them.

Just after clearing the account information, Shen Yixiao actually sent a voice call.

My heart beat faster as I looked at the beeping interface.

How could he call me at such a coincidence? Did he already know that I had returned to China?

I didn't answer it. After Shen Yixiao cancelled the call, before I could breathe a sigh of relief, he sent me a message: Wife, I know you are back, can we meet?

Liang Feng’s previous reminder was not wrong. As long as there is any movement in my identity information, Shen Yixiao will find me as soon as possible.
