Ch 208: Missing
Chang Ba returned from reporting to the police and waited for news at home. With a glimmer of hope in his heart, he no longer contemplated suicide.
Unexpectedly, before the Police Comrade’s news arrived, the middle-aged woman Zeng Lan, Chang Ba’s former future mother-in-law, arrived.
Zeng Lan didn’t care about appearances at all, reaching out and banging on Chang Ba’s door. “Chang Ba, get out here! Give me back my daughter!”
The matter of Chang Ba’s romantic entanglement had already spread throughout the village. The gossip was still hot, and now hearing someone shouting at his door, the neighbors immediately came out to see what was happening.
Chang Ba opened the door, and upon seeing the person, he was first stunned for a moment. Then he tightly grabbed Zeng Lan and wouldn’t let go. “Quickly return my money!”
The neighbors suddenly understood, so this woman was the one who committed marriage fraud? There are all kinds of birds in a big forest; she actually dared to come to his door. Did she think she didn’t swindle enough money?
Chang Ba also didn’t expect to see Zeng Lan again, and almost burst into tears of excitement. He had a chance to get his money back!
“Tch, I don’t care about your measly bit of money.” Zeng Lan wasn’t afraid at all, and even directly looked down on Chang Ba. Her appearance was completely different from her previous smiling face.
“Return my daughter, and I’ll return your money immediately!” Zeng Lan flung off Chang Ba’s hand. However, she didn’t leave, and stood right in front of Chang Ba’s door.
What? Chang Ba even abducted someone’s daughter?
Looking at Zeng Lan’s appearance, her daughter should still be young, Chang Ba is trying to be an old ox eating young grass?
Marry a young girl for 388 Yuan? What wishful thinking!
◈◈◈
The neighbors started whispering among themselves. For a moment, they even forgot that Chang Ba was the victim.
Chang Ba was dumbfounded, Zeng Lan was making false accusations first! How could Zeng Lan’s daughter, Zeng Yun, possibly be with him? Chang Ba did want to abduct Zeng Yun, but he couldn’t find her.
“You female swindler, what trick are you playing now? Let’s go, come with me to the Police Station!” Chang Ba was certain that Zeng Lan was playing another trick, so he decided not to argue with her and go directly to the Police Comrade, to let the Police Comrade help him get his money back.
Zeng Lan once again flung off Chang Ba’s hand and directly rushed into Chang Ba’s house.
Chang Ba was stunned, this mother, she actually dared to enter his house? Was she here to beg for porridge again?
The onlookers were also stunned, this woman was too much! Everyone followed in to see what was happening.
Zeng Lan ignored the strange looks from the crowd and walked through every room, looking like she was searching for something.
Chang Ba didn’t have anything valuable in his house, so he wasn’t afraid of Zeng Lan robbing him, and just let her do as she pleased. Once she was done causing trouble, he would still take her to the Police Station.
After a long while, Zeng Lan finally came out. She shouted loudly at Chang Ba: “Where exactly did you hide my daughter?”
Chang Ba’s face darkened, and he was too lazy to pay attention to her.
“Please, return my daughter. I’ll return your money, not a penny less.”
The crowd finally understood that her daughter, Zeng Yun, was missing. Zeng Lan thought that her daughter was abducted by Chang Ba, so she came to the Chang Family home to cause trouble.
The little swindler went missing? Is this called karma? Chang Ba was amused.
“I didn’t hide your daughter, your daughter disappearing is your retribution!” After saying that, Chang Ba laughed, laughing very happily.
Zeng Lan’s face turned completely white in an instant.
Her daughter wasn’t abducted by Chang Ba? No, she didn’t believe it! Chang Ba must have hidden her!
◈◈◈
Suddenly, Zeng Lan thought of something and immediately turned around and rushed out.
Chang Ba was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He immediately shouted and chased after her. “Catch her, don’t let her run!”
The crowd also followed closely behind.
Catch the swindler!
However, unexpectedly, the swindler didn’t escape, but ran to San Nan Village and rushed into Pin Shang Clothing Factory.
This? What was she doing? Did the swindler find out that Du Qingyang was rich and wanted to swindle her? Could it be that the swindler had a son?
Having a son wouldn’t work either, looking at the swindler’s appearance, her son definitely wouldn’t be handsome. Seeing so many handsome guys usually surrounding Du Qingyang, it was clear that she only liked handsome ones.
Seeing Zeng Lan enter the Clothing Factory, Chang Ba was startled. If Zeng Lan made Du Qingyang angry, and Du Qingyang blamed him in return, what should he do?
“Du Qingyang, Du Qingyang…” Before the crowd could recover, Zeng Lan opened her mouth and shouted. Sure enough, she came to find Du Qingyang.
In this area, very few people would directly call Du Qingyang by her full name in front of her. They usually called her Boss, Divine Doctor Du, Immortal Du, Classmate Du.
With Zeng Lan shouting like that, all the workers in the factory came out to watch.
Du Qingyang also came out. Seeing a middle-aged woman with disheveled hair and a somewhat disheveled appearance, panting and shouting her name, Du Qingyang recalled but couldn’t find any memories related to this woman.
Who was this? Did she know her?
Zeng Lan also didn’t know her, she had only heard of Du Qingyang’s reputation. So, she continued to shout in front of Du Qingyang: “Du Qingyang, Du Qingyang…”
Du Qingyang’s face darkened. Was this Auntie blind? Couldn’t she see her?
The crowd had different expressions, their faces strange. Could this daughter be a madwoman? Why did she come to their factory to go crazy?
Chang Ba was so frightened that he quickly walked up to Du Qingyang and explained: “Immortal Du, this woman is a swindler, she’s the one who swindled my money.”
Du Qingyang oh-ed. So, what did this swindler Auntie run to her place for?
Only then did Zeng Lan realize that the young girl in front of her was Du Qingyang, and she couldn’t help but be stunned for a moment.
Zeng Lan had also heard about Du Qingyang helping Chang Ba with Divination, calculating that Chang Ba would encounter a romantic entanglement. She thought that Du Qingyang was an old woman or an old man. Unexpectedly, she was so young, looking even younger than her daughter.
Her daughter, where was her daughter now? As soon as she thought of her daughter, Zeng Lan became distracted, rushed to Du Qingyang’s front, and shouted: “My daughter is missing. She must have been abducted by this bastard Chang Ba! But he refuses to admit it. Aren’t you good at Divination? Quickly help me calculate, was my daughter abducted by Chang Ba?”
◈◈◈
The crowd all rolled their eyes at Zeng Lan. Who did she think she was? Just because she wanted Immortal Du to do Divination, would Immortal Du do Divination?
Zeng Lan really had no choice, she only had this one daughter. Her daughter had been running after her since she was little, and also took her surname. The two of them had always depended on each other for survival. Now that she was gone, she had searched all the places her daughter might have gone, but couldn’t find her, and she was going crazy.
Wasn’t Du Qingyang’s Divination very accurate? Maybe she could Divine where her daughter was.
Du Qingyang didn’t respond, but turned her face, glared at Chang Ba, and asked quietly: “Did you bring her?”
Du Qingyang’s eyes were sharp, with an expression that she would deal with Chang Ba as long as he nodded. Chang Ba had seen Du Qingyang’s power, and was so frightened that he quickly waved his hand, explaining in a trembling voice: “No, it wasn’t me, it really wasn’t me.”
