Chapter 467
Cui Li brought her brother back to the slum they hadn't seen for a long time.
Because it was already dark, there was almost no one outside the compound. Everyone was at home, and every household had lights on.
When Cui Li took Huan Di to Shen's house, they passed by Liang's house. She suddenly remembered what Bao had told her before: Liang Nan had come to look for Lai Bao again after the last time he did, but Lai Bao ran away when he saw him from a distance.
Cui Li stopped and turned to go to Liang's house.
She knocked on the Liang family's door, and Liang's father's voice came from inside: "Who is it?"
Cui Li didn't say anything and continued knocking on the door.
"Who is it?!" Liang's father asked again, with a hint of impatience in his voice.
Cui Li continued to knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Liang's father said impatiently as he came over and opened the door.
When he saw that it was Cui Li and Huan Di standing outside the door, he was stunned for a few moments.
Immediately, he frowned and said unhappily, "What are you doing here?"
"Is Laibao here?" Cui Li asked.
A complicated look flashed across Liang's father's eyes, and he said, "He's not here."
Cui Li didn't believe what Liang's father said. She shouted into the house: "Laibao - Laibao -"
"Why are you shouting! I told you he is not here!" Liang's father said unhappily.
No one in the room answered her, but Liang Tianxiong came out from the inner room.
When Liang Tianxiong saw her, he was disgusted: "What are you doing here, you bad woman?"
"Lai Bao - Lai Bao -"
Cui Li continued shouting into the house.
Liang Tianxiong ran over, pushed Cui Li hard, and said, "Why are you here looking for Laibao? Laibao isn't at my house! Get out, get out now!"
Cui Li was caught off guard by Liang Tianxiong's push. She staggered back a few steps and almost fell.
Huandi quickly supported her: "Mom——"
Cui Li had originally only guessed whether Liang Nan had taken Lai Bao away. Seeing Liang's father and Liang Tianxiong's attitude, Cui Li no longer had any doubts and took Huan Di away.
Father Liang kept staring at Cui Li's back as she entered the Shen family.
Liang Tianxiong asked his father: "Grandpa, why did that woman come to our house to look for Laibao?"
"I don't know." Liang's father retracted his gaze, answered, and went into the house with Liang Tianxiong.
Cui Li took Huan Di to Shen's house and met Ye Fuyue. She explained to Ye Fuyue the reason why Lai Bao was missing. Not only was Ye Fuyue shocked, but Chen Guifeng was also shocked.
"Why is Laibao missing? This child is a very well-behaved child and won't run around." Chen Guifeng frowned in confusion.
"That's what I thought," Cui Li said anxiously. "Zhong Lan and I have searched the entire area and asked everyone we could, but no one has seen Lai Bao. Zhong Lan is now taking Zao'er with her to look for him."
"Have you reported it to the police?" Ye Fuyue asked.
Cui Li shook her head: "Not yet."
"Take Huandi and report to the police first. We'll think about whether Laibao might have been taken away."
"Okay." Cui Li nodded heavily and continued, "When I came here just now, I went to ask at the Liang family, and Laibao wasn't there."
Ye Fuyue nodded: "Apart from the Liang family, the person you have had a relationship with recently is Ye Wanming."
Cui Li suddenly realized, "Yeah! I haven't asked Ye Wanming yet!"
"Apart from Ye Wanming, think about it, among the customers who have come to the bun shop recently, has anyone had a conflict with you? Those who just had a quarrel or argued for a sentence or two count." Ye Fuyue said.
Cui Li frowned and thought carefully. "No. I never argue with customers, and neither does Zhong Lan. Even if a customer has a complaint or criticizes us, we just smile."
Ye Fuyue nodded. "Okay. Take Huandi to the police first. Think about it on the way. I'll ask Ye Wanming about it. Then we'll meet at the bun shop."
"Okay." Cui Li took Huan Di away.
Ye Fuyue was about to go out when Shen Yao and Chen Guifeng said in unison: "I'll go with you."
Ye Fuyue looked at Chen Yao, then at Chen Guifeng, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Mom, you stay home to look after Haohao Ranran and Qiqi. Chen Yao and I will go. We probably won't be back until very late, so it's better for you to stay home."
"Okay, then I'll stay at home to look after the kids, and Chen Yao will go with you." Chen Guifeng said.
Shen Yao then rode his bicycle with Ye Fuyue to Ye Wanming's house.
The Ye family had already gone to bed. Ye Fuyue knocked on the door for a long time before Aunt Ye came over reluctantly to open the door.
Seeing that it was Ye Fuyue standing outside the door, Aunt Ye was very unhappy. When she saw that there was a tall man following behind Ye Fuyue, that man was her husband, Aunt Ye suppressed her displeasure on her face, but still said in a somewhat aggressive tone: "Why are you knocking on my door so late at night?"
"Have you seen Laibao today?" Ye Fuyue asked.
Aunt Ye looked puzzled: "No. I haven't seen it. I haven't been to your bun shop to buy buns for a long time."
Ye Fuyue continued, "Where's Ye Wanming? He should be at home. Ask him to come out for a moment. I have something urgent to ask him."
Aunt Ye became even more unhappy: "What's the urgent matter that you need to see him so late at night?"
Shen Yao spoke up: "Aunt, we just want to ask him one thing, please let him come out for a moment."
Shen Yao's voice was low, and there was no expression on his stern face. Although his words sounded somewhat polite, the aura he exuded was not polite at all.
Aunt Ye was a little afraid of Chen Yao, so she could only call Ye Wanming out reluctantly.
Ye Wanming was woken up just after falling asleep, and he was in a bad mood. Knowing that it was Ye Fuyue who wanted to see him, Ye Wanming became even more unhappy.
As he came out, he shouted, "Why don't you come to me late at night? Aren't you afraid of being gossiped about?"
As soon as Ye Wanming finished speaking the last word, someone appeared at the door.
When he saw Ye Fuyue's tall man standing behind her, Ye Wanming's face turned pale for a moment.
Shen Yao had heard Ye Wanming's shouting a long time ago. He stared at Ye Wanming with a pair of oppressive black eyes and said in a deep voice: "My wife has something to ask you. Whatever she asks you, answer her truthfully and don't waste each other's time."
Ye Wanming was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his back, but he didn't want to appear too cowardly. He pretended to be relaxed and passed by Shen Yao, and asked Ye Fuyue: "What do you want to ask me?"
"Have you seen Laibao today?" Ye Fuyue asked.
Ye Wanming's reaction was the same as Aunt Ye's just now: "I didn't see it, and I didn't go to your bun shop."
"Really didn't see it?" Ye Fuyue stared at Ye Wanming.
Ye Wanming was a little annoyed and wanted to explode, but when he noticed Shen Yao behind Ye Fuyue, he forced himself to hold back.
"I really didn't see it, why would I lie?"
Aunt Ye asked Ye Fuyue, "Why did you come to my house so late at night to ask about our Laibao?"
