Chapter 36



The housekeeper and the servant hurried to the living room, looking panicked, "Master, the eldest lady drove away."

Ren Wan's face suddenly became gloomy, and she said angrily, "What? You didn't catch her?"

Her voice was sharp, echoing in this spacious yet oppressive space, carrying with it a hint of reluctance and anger.

Then, she turned to face Shen Song, her eyes full of anxiety and eagerness.

"Grandpa, what should we do now? If Xiaoli doesn't get married, we won't get the money.

The company will be unable to make ends meet by then.”

She spoke very quickly, as if she wanted to throw all this heavy pressure on Shen Song.

Shen Song's face was equally ugly, and his chest heaved slightly with anger because of Shen Qingli's departure.

His brows were furrowed, his eyes revealing a trace of fatigue and irritation, "Don't say anything, let me think about it carefully."

A light suddenly flashed in Ren Wan's eyes, and she said, "Master, I heard from others that she bought a house near the hospital. Then let's go to her house to find her."

After saying that, she turned her head and looked at Shen Weiwei, with a hint of expectation in her eyes, "Weiwei, do you know where your sister lives?"

Shen Weiwei shook her head, "Mom, how would I know? She never let me go."

Shen Song waved his hands in annoyance. "Let's put this on hold for now. If we push her too far, we don't know what she'll do. Let's talk about it later."

When Ren Wan heard this, a hint of coldness flashed across her eyes, which was a kind of suppressed dissatisfaction and resentment.

She thought to herself that it seemed that Shen Song still couldn't bear to see Shen Qingli.

But at this moment, she could only swallow her reluctance for the time being and obey her husband's wishes, "Master knows, we will listen to you."

After all this, Shen Song was very tired, and he slowly stood up, "You guys chat, I'll go upstairs and rest for a while."

When Shen Songbo's figure disappeared around the corner of the stairs, Ren Wan suddenly pulled Shen Weiwei over, her eyes flashing with ruthlessness and determination.

"Weiwei, listen to mom. Ask someone to find out the address of that little bitch. When we find it, we will tell the address to that man.

Let me take someone to find her. As long as the matter is settled, Shen Qingli will not be able to escape."

Shen Weiwei showed a knowing smile on her face and nodded gently, "Okay, Mom, I'll ask someone to find out later."

That smile was particularly dazzling in this dim living room.

Shen Qingli drove back home and locked the door as soon as she entered.

With her back against the door, she slowly slid down, gasping for breath, as if she had fallen into an ice cellar.

She couldn't believe that her biological father would send someone to kidnap her.

All the disappointments in the past about that family came flooding back like a tide, but at this moment, the longing for family affection deep in my heart was ruthlessly torn apart, bringing pain as clear and sharp as a knife.

Beijing, this prosperous but cold city, instantly became her wounded land.

There was no place for her here.

Shen Qingli dragged his heavy steps to the study upstairs. Every step seemed to be stepping on fragments of memory, which was painful.

She turned on the computer, and the bright light from the screen illuminated her pale and resolute face.

She quickly contacted a Chinese company and resolutely put the house up for sale.

She knew very well that Ren Wan would never let her go easily. That woman's obsession and cruelty were like a poisonous snake in the dark, and she could emerge at any time to deliver a fatal blow.

Just in case, she specifically specified that she would only sell it to male buyers, trying to build a weak line of defense for herself in this limited time.

Although the house price has risen, she actively lowers the price, just to get rid of it as soon as possible and escape from this corner that is about to be swallowed by darkness.

After dealing with the real estate matters, Shen Qingli began to sort out his belongings.

She ran her hands lightly over each item, her thoughts wandering.

If Xiaoyu needed the things she couldn't take away, she would give them to her, one of the few people in her life who had given her warmth.

After packing everything up, she walked into the bathroom and let the hot water pour down, trying to wash away the fatigue and pain in her body. But how could the sadness deep in her bones be wiped away so easily?

She lay on the bed, staring at the ceiling with lifeless eyes. She was exhausted and soon she was overwhelmed by fatigue and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, the sunlight shone on Shen Qingli's face through the gaps in the curtains, and he slowly woke up.

She reached for the phone beside her, the screen lit up, and several unread messages appeared in her eyes.

When she saw Li He's name, her eyes focused instantly, and a seed of hope quietly ignited in her heart.

She quickly opened WeChat, and Li He's invitation was like a ray of light that penetrated the haze in her mind: meet at the cafe, and the surveillance video will be copied out.

Shen Qingli glanced at the time and saw that there were only twenty minutes left until the departure time.

She instantly jumped up from the bed like a spring, hurriedly got out of bed to wash, tidied herself up as quickly as possible, and rushed out the door.

When Shen Qingli arrived at the cafe, he saw Li He's figure from a distance.

She quickly came to the opposite seat and sat down, "Sorry, I'm late."

Li He smiled and said, "It's not too late, Doctor Shen, I just got here too."

After that, Li He took out a USB drive and placed it on the table. "Doctor Shen, the surveillance you want is all in here. I think someone tampered with it during the time period you mentioned."

"But I learned how to restore surveillance before, so the surveillance inside is completely repaired."

Shen Qingli heard this with gratitude in his eyes, "Li He, thank you, this surveillance is very important to me."

"I don't know how to thank you. You haven't had breakfast yet, right? I'll treat you."

Li He waved his hands repeatedly, "Doctor Shen, it's not worth the effort to raise your hands. I have something else to do later, so I may have to leave first."

Hearing this, Shen Qingli stood up and said to him, "Li He, I'll treat you to a meal sometime. Thank you so much for this time."

After Li He left, Shen Qingli returned to the car with the USB flash drive. She took the notebook in the co-pilot's seat, opened it, and then plugged in the USB flash drive.
