Chapter 426 Searching for Relatives in Myanmar
Nangong Yu: "Actually...actually...your wife Junlan...is not dead yet..."
Before he could finish, Yi Mu grabbed his collar and shouted, "Do you know what you are talking about?"
Nangong Yu: "I'm sorry, I have my reasons."
Yi Mu forced himself to calm down, "Just keep talking!"
Nangong Yu: "Actually, Jun Lan was the illegitimate daughter of your great-grandmother and Xin Yu in her previous life. Before your great-grandmother died, I promised her that I would cut off all her ties with relatives on Earth in this life and let her start anew, so I can only... hide it from you... I'm sorry..."
Yi Mu raised his fist and was about to hit Nangong Yu in the face, but suddenly stopped right in front of him.
"It's good that she's not dead. Where is she now? She's the only one who's okay. I can pretend that this never happened and not bother with you."
Nangong Yu: "This is what I'm going to tell you next. I sent her to Myanmar, but now she's missing."
"What?" Yi Mu didn't want to accept the fact that his wife was fine just when he knew she was fine, but she suddenly disappeared. This feeling was like riding a roller coaster with ups and downs, which not everyone could bear.
"Do you know who did it?" Yi Mu asked angrily.
"We don't have any clues yet, but it's likely Xin Yu and his gang did it. Their motives are probably twofold: one is to keep their daughter by their side, the other is to control us, or perhaps both."
"But these are just our speculations, right? No one knows where she is right now. Maybe she was abducted by someone else?"
"Don't be impatient..."
Yi Mu punched the wall, "How can I not be anxious? That's the person I love the most..."
"Your grandfather came to discuss this with me today. You alone are no match for Xin Yu and the others. Besides, people are not as good as those who live away from home. I have to take care of the company and deal with Mingli's affairs, and I'm already overwhelmed. So, can you go with your grandfather over there and bring her back safely?"
"With Nangong Lan? I won't do it. He was the one who wanted to kill Jun Lan and her daughter. If I really go with him this time, he might do something behind my back."
"You may not trust him, but you have to trust me. I can assure you that he won't do anything to your wife again."
"You promise?"
"I promise!"
"So when do we set off?"
"Go to Xiao Yuehan's house tomorrow to find him! He should have made all the arrangements. If you really can't get along with him, then go find Situ. We've all been there before, we're all very familiar with each other and have a wide network of contacts."
"I'm wondering whether I should tell Zhang Fanxi about this."
"It's better not to. It's better for one less person to know about this kind of thing than one more person to know. Unless it's absolutely necessary, it's best not to go to him and try not to drag irrelevant people into it."
Yi Mu thought about it and could only nod in agreement.
The next morning, Yi Mu came to Xiao Yuehan's house early with his luggage to find Nangong Lan.
Xiao Yuehan seemed unaware of this and asked in confusion, "Why are you here looking for him so early? If you want to avenge your wife, you have to choose a good time. It's just dawn, okay? We are all night owls. You're not specifically picking on us when we're still asleep to cause trouble, are you? What? Are you trying to take advantage of us?"
Yi Mu said angrily: "I really have something to ask my grandfather, get out of here, I don't have time to teach you a lesson now, but if you really want to fight..."
At this time, Nangong Lan also came out with luggage.
"It seems you are ready, let's go."
Xiao Yuehan: "Why didn't you two take me with you on your trip?"
Nangong Lan: "Stop making trouble, we are going to do business. You stay at home and watch the door."
Although Xiao Yuehan had many questions to ask, he could only watch them leave helplessly.
After Yi Mu and Nangong Lan arrived in Myanmar, Nangong Lan said to him, "I'm going to your uncle's house. What about you? Will you come with me or go to Baixue Manor to find Situ?"
Yi Mu: "I'd better go find Situ!"
Nangong Lan: "What? You're not going to imitate your father and go against me, are you?"
Yi Mu: "I know my own limitations. She's fine now, and you saved my life. We're family after all, so I won't be so blind to what's right. I don't know what you're thinking, but as long as you don't continue to target us, I'll still respect you as an elder. The reason I went to find Situ instead of going with you is because he was my teacher who brought me up since I was a child, and I'm more familiar with him. Besides, acting separately will distract the enemy's attention. Don't you think it would be better this way?"
Nangong Lan: "What you said is well-reasoned and I can't refute it! Then let's make it this way! Although the old ones are wise, sometimes we older generations do need to listen to the opinions of the young ones. Remember to come and see your uncle and me when you have time."
At this time, Situ drove over to pick them up.
Situ stuck his head out of the car window: "Where are you going now?"
Nangong Lan: "Send me to my son Duanmu Lin's home. As for him, let him go wherever he wants!"
Situ: "OK, everyone, get in the car. I will definitely take you all to your destination safely."
Arriving at Duanmu Lin's house, Situ said, "Lord Lan, we will leave first so as not to disturb your father and son's reunion."
Nangong Lan waved to them and walked towards the villa.
After sending him there, Situ drove Yi Mu towards Baixue Manor.
Nangong Lan pressed the doorbell for a long time but there was no response. He could only bang on the door and shout, and the housekeeper finally came.
"Come here, come here, who are you? Do you know whose home this is? How dare you shout so loudly here?"
Nangong Lan had never been told this before, but ignorance is not a crime, so he suppressed his temper and said with a smile: "Go and call your master out. When he sees me, he will know who I am."
The housekeeper said, "I don't care who you are. Do you think my master is free to see anyone? He never sees unknown people. Please state your name first and I will report it to you."
Nangong Lan took a deep breath and said patiently, "My name is Nangong Lan. Just go and tell him my name. I don't believe he won't come to see me."
The butler walked in doubtfully.
After a while, Duanmu Lin and the housekeeper came out.
It seemed to him that Nangong Lan had been reluctant to ask the housekeeper to open the door for a long time.
Nangong Lan: "Hey, don't you recognize me? Why are you still standing there? I came all the way here to see you, and you didn't even open the door and say hello, did you? You'll get struck by lightning if you do this."
Duanmu Lin signaled to the housekeeper: "You go down first, I will handle this."
The butler bowed his head and left quickly.
Duanmu Lin: "What kind of psychopath dares to pretend to be my dad? Are you really not afraid of death?"
Nangong Lan was so angry that his whole body was shaking. "You are an unfilial son just like your brother. You don't even recognize your own father. If you don't believe me, you can ask your brother."
