Madam An heard Pei Mingzhou's serious tone and asked hurriedly, "Human life is at stake!"
"Brother, did something big happen?"
Pei Mingzhou looked at the deputy general, who understood and quickly closed the ward door.
Pei Mingzhou then told Madam An that many women had mysteriously disappeared in the imperial capital recently.
“Jiaojiao, this is a serious matter, involving many lives.
Another thing is that your second brother has just taken office. If he can't find these missing people, he will probably have to step down.
More importantly, if the identities of these missing people were revealed, it would cause social panic."
Mrs. An’s second brother Pei Mingyong had just recently taken office as mayor of the imperial capital.
The previous mayor was betrayed by his daughter and wife. Not only did he lose his official position, but even the daughter he raised was not his. He was also sentenced to life imprisonment because his wife secretly accepted huge bribes. It was quite miserable.
Pei Mingyong, who had just taken office, encountered a fatal challenge as soon as he took office.
Those women disappeared inexplicably. The police did not take the report seriously at first. By the time the matter became serious and could no longer be covered up and was reported to Pei Mingyong, it was too late. Even the people above them were alarmed.
Mrs. An was horrified when she heard this: "How could so many people suddenly disappear without a trace?"
Pei Mingzhou: “This is what I’m confused about.
The families who reported the case said that the missing women disappeared inexplicably and without any warning.
I thought that my benefactor could even figure out where I was imprisoned, so maybe she could find a way to find those people."
Mrs. An understood what her elder brother meant.
"I'll try contacting Miaomiao. I don't know if she will come to see you."
Pei Mingzhou: "Well, I'll wait for your reply."
Mrs. An felt embarrassed to trouble her benefactor again.
But since her elder brother asked, she couldn't refuse.
What's more, so many lives were lost.
Hopeless or not, she had to give it a try.
To her surprise, Tong Miaomiao listened to her and agreed to meet Pei Mingzhou without a second thought, so readily that she didn't even have a chance to say a lot of the things she had prepared.
"Miaomiao...you really agreed to meet my elder brother!" Mrs. An asked in surprise.
Tong Miaomiao was having lunch with Fu Yanli in the restaurant opposite the Fu Building.
"Well, I will go to the hospital to see him this afternoon to find out the details."
After she hung up on Madam An, Fu Yanli said unhappily, "Why does Madam An ask you for help with everything? Her eldest brother is the head of a military region, and her second brother is the mayor of the imperial capital.
He has a lot of capable people under him.
If the two brothers join forces, are they afraid of not being able to find those people?"
Tong Miaomiao casually placed her phone on the dining table and smiled: "Are you worried about me?"
Fu Yanli snorted: "Of course, she must have no good intentions when she comes to you."
"Wife, are you really going to the hospital to see Pei Mingzhou this afternoon?"
Tong Miaomiao: "Well, didn't you hear me? I already agreed."
Fu Yanli: "Then I'll go with you."
Tong Miaomiao raised an eyebrow: "Come with me, don't you go to work?
I've seen that other company presidents are very busy, either in meetings or on business trips.
Why do you seem to be so free when I come to you? "
Fu Yanli: "Where am I free?"
"I improved my work efficiency when I was in the company. At night, after you fell asleep, I went to the study to work overtime to finish the work ahead of time, so that I could spend more time with you.
You are so capable. If I don't keep a close eye on you and someone steals your girl away, I will have no place to cry.
By the way, I’m going to the United States on a business trip for a few days tomorrow. The branch office has encountered some difficult problems, and I have to go there in person to deal with them.
Probably back before next week's business meeting.
What gift do you want?
I'll bring it to you when I come back."
Although Tong Miaomiao doesn't have high material requirements, she won't be stupid enough to refuse a gift if someone gives it to her: "Shouldn't it be you who wants to buy me a gift?
If I tell you, will there still be any surprises?"
Of course Fu Yanli knew this, he just wanted to ask her if there was anything she wanted in particular.
Then he looked at Tong Miaomiao and said, "Wife, I noticed that you don't usually wear jewelry. Are you afraid of losing it or do you just not like it?"
He bought her a lot of jewelry, but he never saw her wear it.
Tong Miaomiao: "I often get into trouble because the jewelry I wear might be accidentally lost during a fight.
Those things are not cheap, it would be a shame to lose them.”
Another thing is that she is lazy and finds it troublesome.
Unless it is an important occasion, she would even choose clothes based on comfort.
Just like now, wearing a sweatshirt, light and comfortable.
“If the old doesn’t go, the new won’t come.
I buy you jewelry to wear, not to just sit there and collect dust. If you lose it, I'll buy you a new one."
Fu Yanli suddenly put down his chopsticks, moved his chair closer to her, took out a box from his pocket, and opened it in front of Tong Miaomiao: "Wife, give me your hand."
Tong Miaomiao looked at the box in his hand, and when she saw what he took out, her pupils shrank instantly.
Inside the box was an emerald jade bracelet. The color was obviously of the finest quality and priceless.
"Where did you get this bracelet?" She suppressed the strangeness in her eyes and asked Fu Yanli calmly.
But my heart was in turmoil.
This jade bracelet is exactly the same as the one that the vicious woman had in her memory. How could it appear at an auction abroad?
Could it be that the vicious woman also came to this book?
No, it shouldn't be!
That vicious woman had died long before she came into this book, how could it be possible... ?
Tong Miaomiao lowered her eyes to look at the plain halo ring on her finger, then looked at the jade bracelet, and her heart couldn't calm down.
You can’t go wrong!
This jade bracelet was the one that the master gave to the vicious woman. After the vicious woman died, the jade bracelet disappeared.
