Chapter 691: 7740

Of course, Captain Wu knew who Li Beinian was.

He greeted her with a serious expression, “Mrs. Mu, how do you do.”

Li Beinian looked at Captain Wu standing before her and refused to let go of Qin Hao’s hand. “Where’s my man?”

Captain Wu looked at Li Beinian intensely and said, “Leader Mu is safe for the time being.”

“Where has he gone?”

“Please go home and rest first. Qin Hao, Send Mrs. Mu home.”

“I’m asking you, where has Mu Xichen gone!” Li Beinian released Qin Hao and immediately went forward to grab Captain Wu’s collar. She shouted, “Did the police hide him? He didn’t do anything bad, he wouldn’t have done anything bad. What do you mean by doing this?”

Captain Wu was stunned by being shouted at, but he quickly said, “Of course Leader Mu wouldn’t do anything bad. He has helped the police a lot, but he told us not to tell you his whereabouts. I’m in a difficult position!”

When Li Beinian heard this, she became even more anxious.

Based on what she knew of Mu Xichen, he would have kept her informed of anything he was going to do.

And now, they were being vague and trying to go in circles, but they just couldn’t tell her exactly where Mu Xichen had gone.

This situation was abnormal!

Li Beinian looked at Captain Wu and Qin Hao for a long time before turning around and getting into her car.

Qin Hao and Captain Wu heaved a sigh of relief, but they did not dare to let their guard down as they looked at the girl who was already in the car.

She sat in the car with her eyes closed, her mind racing.

Mu Xichen had been shot, but he was injured and had subdued a gunman.

There was no way the gunman would have been easily subdued, so a struggle would have ensued.

Since this gunman had dared to appear on the Qinggang Bridge, he wouldn’t have been alone.

There was definitely more than one accomplice.

Li Beinian’s heart was already pounding as this thought came to her.

An indescribable sense of urgency surged through her body.

No, calm down!

Li Beinian took a deep breath and tried to relax.

She opened her eyes and saw that under the endless dark sky, the night lights of the city were a sparkling reflection on the surface of the Qinggang Lake.

Amidst the multi-colored lights, there were many boats coming and going on the lake. Besides the tourist ferries used for nighttime sightseeing, there were also small boats that could only accommodate three to five people.

Sweeping her gaze over the water surface, she saw three small boats.

She knew there had to be more, in places she couldn’t see.

Could Mu Xichen have fallen into the water?

Could these boats be actually looking for him?

At this thought, Li Beinian felt a tightening in her chest.

She started the car and drove towards the shore of Qinggang Lake.

Qin Hao and Captain Wu heaved a sigh of relief when they saw her leave.

Captain Wu was furious and whipped Qin Hao’s head. “You rascal, how dare you tell her. If Boss finds out, you’ll be punished!”

Qin Hao’s face was full of innocence as he said, “What can I do? Boss was indeed shot. Furthermore, it has been exposed to the media. If Sister-in-law doesn’t react at all, the P.I.T. people will be suspicious. When they find out that Boss is actually playing along and infiltrating the enemy camp, Boss will be in even greater danger…”

“You little rascal!” Captain Wu chided. “You’re smart though!”

Qin Hao did not look happy at all being praised. He whispered, “But Boss won’t be in any danger, right?”

“Of course not. T is shadowing him, just that we’re worried that his wife…” Captain Wu said and immediately tensed up. “Oh no, I’m afraid she may not be heading home now. ”

“Of course not. Her husband is in trouble. How could she be in the mood to go home…” Qin Hao echoed, but his voice was softer.” Could it be…”

“Follow after her!”

The black Range Rover drove around Qinggang Lake.

In the light of this incident, there were fewer people than usual strolling by the lake.

Hence, Li Beinian drove very close.

From time to time, she would look out of the window and look over the railing onto the lake. Every now and then, she would see people fishing and her mind would go blank.

After going around many times, she couldn’t bear it anymore.

She got out of the car and walked around the lake.

The cold night wind was particularly chilling.

She picked up her phone and called Gu Mingye.

The phone rang for a long time, but no one picked up.

Just like Mu Xichen.

Then, Li Beinian called Bai Yuan, Yang Dawu, and Ma Lin.

They picked up her call, but unanimously replied: I don’t know. What’s the matter? Ah, I’ll have to check.

Following this was a staunch silence.

Li Beinian was only wearing a thick-ish red sweater. By now, her nose was red from the cold and her eyes were also bloodshot.

On the other hand, she seemed to be unaware of the cold as she looked ahead aimlessly.

After walking for some time, a white car suddenly pulled up beside the Range Rover.

From afar, Bo Chengcheng had seen Li Beinian walking around. In the cold wind, she looked exceptionally thin.

“Nian Nian!” Bo Chengcheng shouted and ran after her.

As she shouted, she took off her coat and threw it over Li Beinian.

Li Beinian was feeling a little lost. When she turned around and saw Bo Chengcheng, she suddenly burst into tears and cried. “Sister Bo, I can’t find him. Something happened to him…”

Bo Chengcheng quickly wiped her tears and looked around. “Get into the car first. A video of you walking around here has been uploaded online. Everyone thinks you’re crazy. If Leader Mu finds out, his heart will ache. How are you going to answer to him?”

As she spoke, Bo Chengcheng reached out to pull the jacket tightly around her. “The weather is cold. Let’s go back to the car.”

“He might have fallen into the water. Sister Bo, he was shot. If he had really fallen into the water, would he be able to swim back up?” Li Beinian’s body trembled and her nose was already red. “I’ve asked those policemen many times. They all said that he didn’t fall into the water and that they were just fishing for a gun…”

“Since the police have said so, what are you worried about now?” Bo Chengcheng held Li Beinian’s face with her hand. It was so icy that her heart ached for the girl. “Get in the car first. Jiang has already gone to gather information. He’ll update us the moment there’s any news.”

Li Beinian’s eyes lit up and she asked, “Would Jiang Yeqing be able to find out?”

“Don’t worry. Although the guy sucks at most things, I have to say he has a wide network.” Bo Chengcheng silently heaved a sigh of relief and pushed her towards the car. She pleaded, “If you get sick, Leader Mu will definitely not let me off when he returns. So please just do this for my sake.”

Li Beinian pursed her lips and did not speak. She allowed herself to be ushered towards the car.

After being hustled up into Bo Chengcheng’s car, the latter took out a thermos flask, opened the lid, and handed it to her. “Drink something warm. This is a new cup, it hasn’t been used yet.”

Li Beinian held the thermos and breathed in the fragrance of red dates and wolfberries.

Mu Xichen also liked to prepare this kind of drink for her. He would give it to her while it was piping hot.

As the steam floated up from the cup, the girl’s eyes started to burn again.

He would be fine.

Bo Chengcheng sat in the driver’s seat watching over her, at the same time she kept an eye on the internet.

Suddenly, a call came in: Jiang Yeqing.

Li Beinian looked over with hopeful eyes and said, “Sister Bo, put it on speaker.”

Bo Chengcheng did as she requested. Jiang Yeqing’s voice came over the speaker. “Where are you?”

“Under the Qinggang Bridge with Nian Nian.” Bo Chengcheng glanced at Li Beinian. “Have you found him?”

“Yes I did. It’s a little troublesome.” Jiang Yeqing sighed. “Take her home first. The P.I.T. made a move this time. It’s obvious that they have a strong backer. Otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to pull this off at the Qinggang Bridge.”

Sure enough!

Li Beinian’s heart sank as her suspicion was confirmed.

“How is he now?” Bo Chengcheng asked.

“I heard that he was shot. Gu Mingye has already gone in, but I’m not sure of the exact situation. However, don’t tell his wife about it. Don’t let her worry for nothing.” Jiang Yeqing seemed to be taking a deep breath. His breathing was unstable. Perhaps he realized his mistake and immediately said, “Damn it, I’m freezing to death!”

Bo Chengcheng glanced at Li Beinian in reflex. Li Beinian pursed her lips and finally said, “You’re injured.”

It wasn’t a question, but a certainty.

Jiang Yeqing paused and said, “Cheng Cheng, don’t tell me you’re on speaker!”

Bo Chengcheng asked, “Are you injured?”

“I’m fine.”

“Where’s Mu Xichen?”

“He’s fine. Don’t let your imagination run wild. Hurry up and go home to rest. He’s no longer at Qinggang.”

“Where is he?” Li Beinian had an ominous feeling. “Is his injury serious? Has he been taken away?”

Jiang Yeqing said after a long time, “Don’t worry, he definitely knows what he’s doing, since he’s made the decision to go with them .”

However, Mu Xichen had always been arrogant and he never let on much.

So really, what would Jiang Yeqing know?

Li Beinian stared ahead for a long time before saying, “Alright, I understand.”

She covered thermos flask and got out of the car. “Sister Bo, I’m going home now.”

Of course, Bo Chengcheng didn’t believe her. She quickly got out of the car and ran after her. “Nian Nian, I’ll send you home. I’ll get someone to drive your car back to you later on.”

“It’s alright.” Li Beinian walked straight to her car and got into the driver’s seat.

Bo Chengcheng immediately tried to open Li Beinian’s front passenger seat door.

Li Beinian snapped on the lock at once and started the car.

Bo Chengcheng was shocked and immediately let go.

The black Range Rover drove off. Bo Chengcheng immediately stomped her foot, and quickly went back to her own car.

Li Beinian held her phone and pulled Mu Donglin’s number out of the blacklist. Then, she dialed it.

On the other end.

The pale and clean cut young man was wearing a headset and his fingers were flying across the keyboard. The only sound in the empty vehicle compartment was the sound of clicking on the keyboard.

Suddenly, T Jing shouted into the microphone, “Damn, Sister-in-law has indeed contacted Mu Donglin. Boss, what should we do?”

On the other end, after a moment of silence, a barely audible voice was heard. “Let her.”
