Although Lin Jiacheng intervened, the incident still had some impact on Yao Anna, especially on Lin Ruolin's die-hard fans, who vented their anger over their idol's departure on Yao Anna and Gu Cheng.
However, Gu Cheng's fans were not to be trifled with, so following the principle of picking on the weak, those crazy people naturally rushed towards Yao Anna without saying a word!
However, Yao Anna is no longer the pitiful girl she used to be, and her fans are not to be trifled with. After a fierce and chaotic battle, the matter finally calmed down temporarily.
However, this quiet period is only temporary.
After all, Yao Anna never expected that she and Song Mengmeng would run into Du Ruiyu while shopping.
"Unfortunately, I really did come here to see you."
Yao Anna originally intended to leave without saying goodbye, but was stopped by the assistant that Du Ruiyu had arranged to accompany her.
Du Ruiyu walked over and stood in front of Yao Anna. Although her expression wasn't very pleasant, at least her tone was relatively calm.
"I have something I'd like to discuss with you. Could we talk in private for a moment?"
Yao Anna hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement. However, she did not let Song Mengmeng leave, but instead followed her and Du Ruili to a nearby coffee shop.
It was afternoon tea time, and the coffee shop wasn't exactly quiet.
However, thanks to Du Ruiyu's arrangements, they actually found a quiet spot by the window to sit down and talk.
Because she finally had some free time, Yao Anna was able to get a clear look at Du Ruiyu's situation.
Compared to a few years ago, Du Ruiyu has lost much of her arrogance and haughty spirit. In addition, even the most exquisite makeup cannot hide the fatigue on her face.
"What do you want to say?!"
Yao Anna didn't particularly want to have much contact with Du Ruili in front of her. As soon as she sat down, even before the coffee was served, she asked the question.
Du Ruiyu was taken aback, not expecting Yao Anna to be so direct.
Just now, while Yao Anna was observing her, she was also sizing up Yao Anna.
Compared to when she first met this young girl, when she was awkward and timid, she has now completely transformed, exuding confidence and radiance as if she were a different person.
Like the most radiant flower, it blooms with dazzling brilliance.
"Ruolin is missing."
Du Ruiyu was already in a state of utter confusion. Two days ago, she had already prepared to go abroad to meet Lin Ruolin.
But at that very moment, Lin Jiacheng told her with a serious expression that he had just received news that Lin Ruolin had disappeared in the sanatorium.
At first, the sanatorium just thought that Lin Ruolin was hiding. After all, it wasn't unacceptable for a patient who had just arrived at the sanatorium to have such resistant behavior.
However, after the sanatorium searched the entire facility thoroughly and checked all available cameras to look for Lin Ruolin's whereabouts, they were surprised to find that Lin Ruolin did not appear in any of the cameras from beginning to end.
Even the security camera in the hallway directly opposite her door didn't capture her leaving.
so……
Where did Lin Ruolin go?!
With this in mind, the staff at the sanatorium dared not be careless and quickly contacted the Lin family.
"She's gone, what does that have to do with me?!"
Du Ruiyu's revelation startled Yao Anna at first, but she quickly recovered and bluntly asked, "You don't actually think I'm the one who caused your daughter's disappearance, do you?!"
“That’s not what I meant. I just wanted to ask if the last people she contacted before she left for the country were you. I just want to know if she left any clues at that time.”
Du Ruiyu was really desperate and grasping at straws at this point.
She knew perfectly well that questioning Yao Anna now would yield no useful clues. But seeing the woman who had once hurt her daughter so smug, she couldn't help but feel a surge of smugness!
That's why I've taken the initiative to come and find her now.
But once they sat down together and the conversation started, Du Ruiyu regretted it.
What's the point of her coming to my door like this?!
Does that really mean you'll upset the other person?!
But in reality, the end result was that not only did it fail to upset the other party, it actually made her feel even worse!
"I think you should ask Gu Cheng about this instead of coming to me."
Yao Anna lowered her eyes. Although she didn't have a very good feeling about Lin Ruolin, the person had disappeared abroad, and finding her was the most important thing in this situation.
If you don't see eye to eye, even half a sentence is too much.
Originally, Du Ruiyu's meeting with Yao Anna was just a spur-of-the-moment decision. However, after only a couple of sentences, Du Ruiyu's anger dissipated, and the two of them parted ways without exchanging more words or even waiting for coffee to be served.
Nobody took this matter seriously, thinking it was just a chance encounter!
But that very evening, Yao Anna received a call from an extremely unfamiliar number.
Through the jumbled static, she heard Lin Ruolin's voice on the other end of the phone, filled with panic and unease: "Help, help me!"
"What's wrong with you?!" Yao Anna frowned, her first thought being that the other person was probably putting on an act again. However, she quickly dismissed that idea.
