After listening to her mother's explanation, Li Ying hurriedly followed Yang Mei home.
Ya Ru didn't know where Li Pei had gone either.
“He didn’t come back last night. I thought he was working overtime at the factory, but when I went to the factory this morning, I found that he wasn’t there. I realized that he might be missing.”
How could a living person just disappear like that?
Li Ying asked, "After my brother returned to the factory from the hospital, did the Jing family or the Lu family look for him?"
Ya Ru thought for a moment and shook her head: "A few days ago, your older brother told me that this matter was very strange. Since the drug poisoning incident, neither the Jing family nor the Lu family has come to the factory to look for him. It seems that they no longer want ownership of the machinery factory."
Li Ying thought it was a lie to say they didn't want it; they were probably preparing something big.
"Mom, sister-in-law, don't worry, I'll go out and look for her. Also, no matter what anyone says to you, remember not to listen or believe them. Stay at home and don't go anywhere, understand?" Li Ying instructed.
Yang Mei asked, "Can you tell your father and your second brother?"
"You can call them and tell them not to do anything rash."
"good."
After Li Ying left, she went straight to the Lu family to find Lu Yufei.
After that drug poisoning incident, Lu Yufei's mental state was not as strong as before.
"You were looking for me?"
Li Ying directly explained why she came.
"Your older brother is missing?"
"Well, that's why I came to see Miss Lu. I wanted to ask if you still have any plans for the machinery factory?"
Lu Yufei smiled calmly: "Of course there is. Moreover, the machinery factory has a new leader, and we have reached an agreement. In a while, the machinery factory will belong to the Lu family. Of course, your older brother will still be the factory director, and that will not change."
So, the eldest brother's disappearance must be related to Leng Yan.
"Thank you, Miss Lu, I understand."
Li Ying turned to leave.
"Li Ying!" Lu Yufei called out to Li Ying, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I think you should go and find Leng Yan. I heard that if he doesn't get ownership of the machinery factory this time, he may lose everything in the Jing family. This man has always been unscrupulous, and he might do anything in desperation."
Given Leng Yan's bad reputation and ruthless nature, it's not surprising to have such speculations.
"Thank you, Ms. Lu."
After leaving Lu's Company, Li Ying rode her bicycle to Leng Yan's company.
The cold banquet was not served.
Ah Hu is not here either.
It seems Lu Yufei was right; his brother's disappearance must be related to Leng Yan.
This person seems really vicious!
Li Ying was somewhat at a loss. She could find Leng Yan's company, but she couldn't find any other places associated with him.
Just as he was feeling worried, he saw Jing Chi stop his car and get out.
"Jing Chi!"
Li Ying rushed over, but when she saw Chunxue getting out of the car, she stopped and stood still.
Jing Chi saw Li Ying and strode over, his expression gentle: "What brings you here? Are you looking for me?"
"No, I'm looking for Leng Yan." Li Ying said and was about to leave.
Jing Chi reached out and took Li Ying's hand, then said to Chunxue behind him, "You go in first, I'll be right there."
Chunxue smiled slightly, nodded, and walked into the company with small steps.
Li Ying struggled for a moment but couldn't break free, staring coldly at Jing Chi.
"Young Master Jing, if you want to have women on both sides, please find someone else."
Jing Chi pursed his lips and smiled lightly: "Are you jealous?"
"I'm not in the mood for jokes. Something's happened at my clinic, and my older brother is missing. Do you think I'm in the mood to be jealous over Chunxue?" Li Ying said angrily.
Jing Chi frowned: "Your older brother is missing? When did this happen?"
"Do you know if Leng Yan has any other places besides here?"
All Li Ying wanted to know was information about Leng Yan.
“He has other places, places where his cronies gather, I don’t know exactly where. But I can go with you, don’t worry, nothing will happen.”
Li Ying broke free from Jing Chi's hand and said, "To tell you the truth, I don't like Chunxue."
Jing Chi smiled, a slight upturn to his lips.
"I see."
Li Ying rolled her eyes at him: "You should go back first, don't keep your Chunxue waiting. I'm going to find Leng Yan."
Before Jing Chi could say anything, Li Ying strode away.
Li Ying searched all day but couldn't find Leng Yan, nor could she find her elder brother.
It wasn't until dark that Li Ying, dragging her tired body home, saw Leng Yan's car parked not far from her house.
"A cold banquet!"
Li Ying rushed over, grabbed Leng Yan by the collar, and demanded, "Where's my older brother? Where did you take him?"
Leng Yan frowned: "Your older brother? How would I know?"
“You’re still pretending! People at the factory say my older brother left after seeing the note you left for him on the table, and then he just disappeared.”
Leng Yan pulled Li Ying's hand away and straightened her collar.
"So you think I did something to your older brother?"
Isn't that so?
“Li Ying, you should have used your brain. I would never do anything to your older brother at this critical juncture.”
Leng Yan said expressionlessly.
Have you seen your older brother?
"I met him. I asked him to come to the beach to discuss the ownership issue in detail, but we parted on bad terms, and I haven't seen him since." Leng Yan took out a cigarette, put it in his mouth, and lit it.
Where have you been all day?
Leng Yan exhaled a puff of smoke, turned to look at Li Ying, his expression still cold: "Are you interrogating me?"
"I believe you didn't do it, but where were you that day?"
“I’m going home. My adoptive father is seriously ill, and I’m going back to see him. Is that not allowed?” Leng Yan glanced at Li Ying and said after a long while, “You think I took your older brother away because I’m not at the company for a day?”
"It's best if you didn't prepare the cold banquet."
When Li Ying returned home, her whole family was there.
"You're finally back?" Yang Mei helped Li Ying sit down. "Yingying, don't worry, your older brother will be alright."
Li Ting sighed, "The Lu and Jing families will do anything to fight for ownership of the machinery factory. My eldest brother holds the factory's seal; without it, no one can take the factory away. I suspect someone doesn't want the factory to fall into someone else's hands and has deliberately imprisoned my eldest brother."
Li Ying suddenly remembered what Lu Yufei had said: the new leaders of the machinery factory wanted to sell the factory to the Lu family. In this way, the Jing family would not be able to get it, and naturally they would be unwilling.
It seems that Leng Yan is the one who imprisoned the eldest brother. He can't get ownership of the factory, and he doesn't want anyone else to get it either, so he can only make the eldest brother disappear.
"It's Leng Yan! I've met Miss Lu, and she said the machinery factory has reached an agreement with the Lu family to hand over the factory to them. Think about it, what will happen if Leng Yan doesn't get ownership of the factory?"
"They will be abandoned."
