A wealthy family recognizes my relatives? But I am already a billionaire.
Chapter 289 Bounty
After Lu Jingyao got in the car, he learned that Xu Youyou had other things to do. He didn't look surprised at all and just said, "I guessed that too. I'll go with you."
Xu Youyou did not refuse. Although Lu Jingyao had not formally proposed to her yet, their relationship was stable. Lu Jingyao probably knew a little bit about her secret, but he just didn't say it.
The driver was the Lu family's driver. Although it was the first time for Xu Youyou to drive, they were well-trained. Even when Xu Youyou pointed the car to a strange place, they didn't say a word.
Finally the car stopped at a place called "Miraiduo Building".
This is an old building, which looks very dilapidated from the outside. After entering, Xu Youyou followed the golden pointer of the system and walked inside, and everyone was shocked.
There were dense pipes inside and the lights in the corridor were dim. There was always a strange smell lingering at everyone's nose, making people feel irritated.
"Miss Xu, why did you have to come here? Isn't it better to be happy somewhere else?"
Xu Youyou heard someone muttering softly.
She turned around and looked at the person who spoke. He was a young man in his twenties. He was said to have a master's degree from abroad and was a relative of a senior executive in Lu Jingyao's company. He was stuffed into Lu Jingyao's team for gilding.
Lu Jingyao frowned and looked at Assistant Liu. Assistant Liu had no choice but to pull this young man aside and give him some detailed instructions.
Everyone present with a brain knew that although this young man had a relative who was a senior executive, his future in the Lu Group was likely to be worrying. After all, his nonsense had already made Lu Jingyao unhappy.
Xu Youyou said to Lu Jingyao, "The smell here is not good, why don't you let me go in by myself."
Lu Jingyao shook his head: "It's rare for me to accompany you, it's just a little smell."
Compared to the sudden smell, his eyes were looking around like sharp swords, fearing that the danger lurking in the dark would implicate Xu Youyou.
Xu Youyou felt a little relieved, and then followed the golden pointer of the system and walked through this dilapidated corridor. After ten minutes, Xu Youyou finally arrived at her destination.
A gray door was covered with all sorts of small advertisements.
Xu Youyou asked a bodyguard to go forward and knock on the door.
I knocked for three minutes, but there was no movement in the room.
"Boss, do you want to keep knocking?" asked the bodyguard.
Xu Youyou sighed. After finishing the novice period, the tasks became extremely difficult. Every time she encountered a bargain in a house like this, the door of the room was always difficult to open.
"Since there's no one inside, forget it." Xu Youyou said.
The bodyguard was about to leave when he suddenly stopped, then put his ear close to the door with a look of confusion on his face.
Xu Youyou looked at his sudden action and stopped as well.
About half a minute later, the bodyguard returned to Xu Youyou and said in a low voice, "Boss, there seems to be someone inside. I heard the sound of a chair being dragged. Just now, when I was close to the door, I also felt like I could hear the heavy breathing of the person inside."
Xu Youyou frowned slightly: "There's someone inside, but doesn't want to see us?"
The bodyguard nodded.
Xu Youyou asked him to continue knocking on the door. After knocking for more than half a minute, no one opened the door.
Xu Youyou didn't expect to get things done successfully in just one go. She was used to formal tasks taking several times to complete.
At least this time, the mission location was determined, and Xu Youyou turned to look at Xu Fang.
Xu Fang and her boss had a tacit understanding. She whispered, "Boss, before coming to Hong Kong City, I had already contacted the detectives there. I'll send them the address of the house and ask them to investigate the specific situation here."
Xu Youyou nodded slightly and looked at Xu Fang approvingly.
Although Lu Jingyao didn't know why Xu Youyou wanted to find out the specific situation here, he came over and said, as he had done countless times in the past, "If you trust me, let my people check it out as well. Only by working on both fronts can we get results faster."
Xu Youyou's eyes lit up.
Since the people in the house didn't plan to come out, it would be inappropriate for them to stay here all the time. However, before Xu Youyou left, she thought for a moment and left two bodyguards behind.
"Let's see who is hiding in this room. I also want to see why the other party has been hiding from people." Xu Youyou gave the following reason.
Her bodyguard team is large enough that the loss of two people will not have much impact.
About half an hour after they left, the man who was sticking to the door of the house looked at the empty corridor through the peephole, recalled Xu Youyou's beautiful face, and couldn't help licking his lips.
"Such a beautiful person, if she closes her eyes, she will definitely be very well behaved...but now she is so naughty..."
After saying this, he turned around, changed into a delivery man's uniform, went upstairs through the small stairs in the house, and walked out of the main door upstairs in a swagger, leaving only the buzzing sound of electricity from the freezer in the house.
The two bodyguards left behind by Xu Youyou did not notice anyone leaving, even though they had been watching the door near the house.
Xu Youyou was worried about this matter, and even when she was traveling with Lu Jingyao, she couldn't completely let it go.
However, when I returned to the Lu family villa in the evening, I saw Mr. Lu sitting in the living room sighing.
"Grandpa, did you encounter anything unhappy today?" Xu Youyou asked worriedly.
Mr. Lu said, "It's not me, it's an old friend of mine whose granddaughter is missing."
"How old are you?" Xu Youyou asked.
Mr. Lu said, "He's about the same as you. He just came back from studying abroad for a master's degree."
The old man suddenly turned to look at Lu Jingyao: "Jingyao, you should remember her, she is your grandfather Chen's granddaughter, four years younger than you. She went to the same school as you abroad and was your junior. She was an excellent student since she was young."
Xu Youyou's heart tightened. She recalled her experience abroad last year and asked, "Did you lose it abroad? Did you travel to Southeast Asia?"
Old Master Lu shook his head and said, "That girl just came back. She was lost in Hong Kong. Her family originally wanted her to take over the business, but she didn't want to. She seemed to be starting a business or some project. Suddenly one day, she disappeared..."
Xu Youyou thought this was very strange.
Mr. Lu hesitated for a moment and then said, "Youyou, don't be upset when I tell you about this. Originally, the Chen family wanted to pair that girl with Jingyao, but before they had time to discuss it, you two became friends, and no one mentioned it anymore."
Xu Youyou was not unhappy when she heard this. The Lu family was not the evil ones who would break up a couple, and they had always respected her.
"My poor old friend has only three grandchildren, and his favorite is the eldest. He has invested countless efforts in this child, and now she is missing. It's been almost two weeks, and the reward is over 100 million Hong Kong dollars, but there is still no news. If I hadn't gone to see him today, I would still be in the dark about this."
