The third brother came over at this time, holding a mobile phone in his hand, with a serious expression, "Zhengchu, the woman's message has been sent to your phone. Take a look."
Tan Zhengchu nodded, took out his phone, and opened the email. A photo of a woman appeared on the screen, and her features were somewhat similar to his mother's.
His brows knitted slightly, and a trace of doubt arose in his heart, "Could it be that the mother quietly took the children away?"
The third brother stood aside and couldn't help asking, "Zhengchu, could it be that the Madam...took the young masters away?"
Tan Zhengchu was silent for a few seconds, then shook his head. "No. Although she had a tense relationship with my father, she has reconciled with the Tan family. She would not take the children away in this way. What's more, she doesn't need to be so mysterious."
The third brother nodded, and he also felt that this guess was not reasonable. "Who is this woman? Why did she take Liubao and Dabao away?"
Tan Zhengchu's eyes turned cold, and there was a hint of chill in his voice, "No matter who she is, if she dares to touch my son, I will make her pay the price."
After he finished speaking, he put away his phone and turned to walk into the hotel.
The third brother hurriedly followed, praying in his heart that Liubao and Dabao were safe. He knew that once Tan Zhengchu's anger erupted, the whole Pengcheng would be shaken.
Tan Zhengchu stood in front of the elevator, his eyes shaking slightly, and a thought flashed through his mind.
He quickly took out his cell phone and called his mother Li Yuzhu.
Li Yuzhu's excited voice soon came from the other end of the phone, "Zhengchu? Why did you suddenly think of calling your mother? Are you missing me?"
Tan Zhengchu's voice was calm and direct, "Mom, I have a question. Do you... have a sister?"
There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone, as if even the breathing stopped for a few seconds.
Li Yuzhu's voice became a little low, "Zhengchu, why do you suddenly ask this?"
Tan Zhengchu didn't beat around the bush and said directly, "Mom, there is a woman who looks very similar to you and took away Dabao and Liubao. I need to know everything about her."
Li Yuzhu's voice suddenly trembled, "Yumei? Is she still alive? This... this is impossible! After the fire, I thought she had..."
Her voice was choked with sobs, and she seemed to be lost in painful memories.
Tan Zhengchu could hear slight sobbing coming from the other end of the phone, but he did not interrupt and just waited quietly.
After a long while, Li Yuzhu managed to calm down and said in a hoarse voice, "Zhengchu, Yumei is my twin sister. But after the fire, I thought she was dead. For so many years, I never mentioned her, because every time I thought of her, my heart hurt like a knife."
Tan Zhengchu's brows were furrowed, and his fingers tapped unconsciously on the elevator door frame. "Mom, do you know where she might be living now? I must find her as soon as possible and bring the children back."
Li Yuzhu was silent for a few seconds, then whispered, "I don't know. We lost contact after the fire. I always thought she was dead. If she is still alive and took Dabao and Liubao away, then she must want to take revenge on me... revenge on the Tan family."
Tan Zhengchu's eyes turned cold, and his voice was a little chilly, "No matter what her purpose is, if she dares to touch my son, I will make her pay the price."
He hung up the phone and walked into the elevator. The elevator door slowly closed, his expression was grim, and his eyes were flashing with complex light.
After walking out of the elevator, Tan Zhengchu walked straight into the banquet hall.
The hall was already deserted, with only a few staff members left to clean up the mess. He lit a cigarette and took a deep puff. His brows knitted tightly in the smoke.
"These two little guys actually ignored their own safety in order to save me..." Tan Zhengchu murmured in a low voice, with a hint of pride in his tone, but also mixed with deep worry.
At this moment, the phone rang again. Tan Zhengchu took a look and saw that it was Li Yuzhu calling. He picked up the phone and said calmly, "Mom, what else?"
Li Yuzhu's voice was a little hesitant. "Zhengchu, I've decided. I'll take a plane back to the Tan family with Xiaofan today. No matter what Yumei wants to do, I can't let her hurt my grandchildren."
Tan Zhengchu was silent for a few seconds, then nodded, "Okay, send me the flight information and I'll arrange someone to pick you up."
After Tan Zhengchu hung up the phone, his brows were furrowed and his mood was more complicated than before.
He thought that he could quickly find Dabao and Liubao by finding clues, but unexpectedly, things became more difficult. Li Yumei's identity surprised him, and her motives were even more difficult for him to guess.
"How could things turn out like this..." Tan Zhengchu murmured in a low voice, his fingers tapping on the table unconsciously, a hint of anxiety in his eyes.
Just then, Lin Quan pushed the door open hurriedly with obvious worry on his face.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Tan Zhengchu standing in the middle of the hall, his face as cold as ice, and the air pressure around him was so low that it made people breathless.
"Zhengchu," Lin Quan walked forward, his tone apologetic and anxious, "I'm here. What's going on?"
Tan Zhengchu glanced at him coldly and said in a low voice, "The surveillance shows that Liubao and Dabao followed you into the lounge, then they changed their clothes and left with a man in black. Lin Quan, I need an explanation."
Lin Quan's expression became even uglier. He took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Zhengchu, I did see them, but they lied to me. They said they wanted to see the medicine box and asked some questions about the medicine. I didn't think much about it at the time and let them into the lounge. But I really didn't know they would leave with others."
Tan Zhengchu's eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if he could see through Lin Quan's mind. He was silent for a few seconds, then said coldly, "Lin Quan, I hope you are not hiding anything. If this matter has anything to do with you, I will not show mercy."
Lin Quan smiled bitterly, with a hint of helplessness in his tone, "Zhengchu, we have been brothers for many years, you should know me. How could I possibly hurt Liubao and Dabao? I just hope to find them as soon as possible."
Tan Zhengchu raised his head, his eyes as cold as a knife. He stood up suddenly, walked a few steps to Lin Quan, grabbed his collar, and said in a low and suppressed voice, "Lin Quan, why did you hide the truth? If you had told me earlier, things would not have developed to this point!"
Lin Quan was startled by his action, but he quickly reacted, his eyes full of guilt. He frowned and whispered, "Zhengchu, I'm sorry... I really didn't expect things to turn out like this. I was deceived by those two little guys."
