Chapter 207 This Man Must Die!

Lu Jinye raised his head and looked at Shen Mobo, then looked sideways at the woman beside him.

Her name was Man Moer – what an uncommon name!

Her looks were… Lu Jinye had not a single clue which trait she had on her that attracted Shen Mobo.

She was beautiful and that was it. She had a slim and curvy body with a hint of audacity.

But he and Shen Mobo had been best friends for years. They were still blood brothers regardless of

any fights they had between them.

“You can have fun anywhere you like, except the basement, which is off-limits.”

“Why?”

Shen Mobo pretended that he didn’t know and asked curiously.

Lu Jinye glared at him challengingly, “Because I’ve someone locked up in the basement.”

“I see.”

Shen Mobo nodded his head and smiled brightly. He turned around and pulled Man Moer’s hand,

leading her to the upper floor in a jiffy.

“Come on, you should enjoy the view of the woods from upstairs!”

Man Moer was cooperative. She leaned against Shen Mobo seductively, then followed Shen Mobo up

with her heels clicking behind her.

As soon as they reached the top floor, Shen Mobo immediately shook Man Moer’s hand off, and

instructed, “Mind yourself later and don’t waste your energy on me. I don’t like women like you.”

Man Moer did not take his words to heart. She had her hair tied all to the back at first to look young and

energetic. She dressed up close-fittingly too to reveal her sensuous body shape.

When someone had her act as their girlfriend, they normally wanted to engage with her as a rental

girlfriend, slowly turning their act into reality, thinking that it was more tantalizing.

So, Man Moer thought Shen Mobo was keen of that as well.

But since Shen Mobo had put it that way, she did not need to scrape up to him anymore.

She sat quietly aside and pulled off the rubber band in her hair. Her shiny hair was let down in soft,

bouncy curls.

She deliberately put them in front of her to cover her breasts.

She did not disturb Shen Mobo, and just watched the view in silence.

Lu Jinye’s villa was located at a strategic place. In the distance, a small stream can be seen running

into the sea. It looked sparkly under the setting sun.

The night view seemed to be carefully arranged by the people here. All the lighting depicted the pattern

of the mountains afar, making the view warmer and more natural.

At this time, it was already sunset. The moon had risen quietly, with a few man-made lights

accompanying it.

All in all… The view was one of a kind.

Nevertheless, Mobo Shen was not interested in any of these things. He picked up his mobile phone

and made a call hastily.

He was onto something.

Shen Mobo was a careful person, so he would automatically lower his voice when speaking on the

phone.

Man Moer did not pay attention to anything else than her job. She watched the view intently.

…

In the villa.

Lu Jinye was interrogating the security guard with his brows knitted together, “Are you going to spill it or

not?”

“Who gave you the orders?”

Lu Jinye pressed on.

He felt that this was not an ordinary case manipulated by fans. He had seen Xiao Qingqing’s fans. Most

of them were young boys who have just started college. Of course, there were also men whose looks

were criminal-like, but this did not feel like an act done by Xiao Qingqing’s fans.

His eyes were dark and lifeless.

People like these tended to have been through the mill and most of them had no hope for life. Thus,

how could he be chasing after celebrities and be so irritable?

Therefore, although the kidnappers refused to breathe out a single word, Lu Jinye still had them

interrogated.

He was prepared to hand them over to the police only after the result of the trial is out.

But… This person had refused to let the cat out of the bag no matter how hard they tried him.

Lu Jinye raised his wrist and took a look at the time. He originally wanted to go home and have dinner

with Mu Zhi and Mu Xiaomu. Perhaps… He couldn’t make it back in time now.

Just when he was about to call Mu Zhi to update the situation, his phone rang.

“Hello?”

Lu Jinye frowned as he spoke.

It was an unknown number.

A very anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, “Mr. Lu? It’s me, Madam Zhang, Miss Xiao

Qingqing’s helper. Do you think that Miss Xiao Qingqing would commit suicide?”

When Lu Jinye heard her question, he immediately squeezed the phone tightly. There was a chill in his

eyes as he said, “Why do you say that?”

“Miss Xiao is gone. She left a note saying that if nobody would accept her as she was, she would rather

die.”

“Mr. Lu, I… I don’t know what to do. I can’t get through Miss Xiao’s phone.”

“Wait for me, I shall come right now!”

Lu Jinye hung up at that instance, looked around him, and said solemnly, “Take a rest for now, I shall

be back to deal with you later. There are some other matters I need to handle.”

After saying this, Lu Jinye picked up his jacket and drove quickly towards Xiao Qingqing’s residence

without delay.

Although he did not love Xiao Qingqing, he still hoped that Xiao Qingqing could live happily.

If Xiao Qingqing committed suicide because of him, Lu Jinye would definitely blame himself for it.

He understood Mu Zhi, and he knew that Mu Zhi would take the blame too.

As he thought about this, Lu Jinye sped even faster. He arrived at Xiao Qingqing’s home at the speed

of lightning.

As soon as he pushed the door, he saw Madam Zhang waiting for him anxiously.

When she handed him the piece of paper Xiao Qingqing left behind, Lu Jinye frowned as he glanced at

it. But then he directly threw it onto the ground.

“There’s no fuss to make. Xiao Qingqing is fine.”

“Why?”

Madam Zhang still looked nervous.

Although the handwriting on that piece of paper was beautiful, it was not written by Xiao Qingqing.

Whoever’s handwriting it may be.

“Qingqing might have gone out and coincidentally her phone went out of power. You may try to call

again later.”

After saying this, Lu Jinye didn’t bother to explain further. He turned around and was about to walk out.

Madam Zhang seemed to be reminded by Lu Jinye’s words. She quickly picked up her mobile phone

and dialed a number, and then happily said to Lu Jinye, “Miss Xiao’s phone is connected.”

Lu Jinye didn’t even pay attention to Madam Zhang’s words. He drove straight back to his villa.

…

In the basement, a man was being held captive.

Lu Jinye didn’t torture him. He only starved him.

Shen Mobo took the chance to sneak into the basement while Lu Jinye’s men went away for food.

When the man saw someone coming, he thought it was another someone who had come to interrogate

him. He snorted, “Give up. I won’t say anything.”

Shen Mobo chuckled, “What if someone offered you five million, would you tell?”

He asked in an attempt to tempt the man, but as the man raised his head suddenly, there was clearly a

gleam of light in his eyes.

He was interested in the offer.

And that gleam of light convinced Shen Mobo that this man must die!
