Guilongchao: I played the domineering CEO to the bone.

Chapter 141 To run into Min Moyou just by casually accepting a commission in Zhongpu? That's unbelievable!

In a large square next to Longchao Pavilion, a middle-aged woman with gray hair, wearing a light purple knit sweater, black capri pants, a pretty face, and gold-rimmed glasses, was impatiently muttering something.

"Dragon Tide Pavilion? A detective agency I've never heard of before. Is it even reliable? If I hadn't been unable to find Xiao Lin and hadn't been recommended by a friend..."

"Tsk, why aren't the people from Dragon Tide Pavilion here yet? Inefficiency! Inefficiency! There's absolutely no efficiency."

When Tong arrived at the plaza with Zhu Sha, she noticed that this woman looked the most anxious in the entire plaza, and she had the same white hair as the genius figure skating girl, Rin. Tong knew that she was probably the client.

"Hello ma'am, we are Longchao Pavilion..."

Tong approached and greeted him, but was interrupted by the other person's arrogant and sharp tone—

"Dragon Tide Pavilion? You've finally arrived."

The woman's anxiety seemed to far exceed Tong's expectations; she clearly looked like a well-educated social elite, only she was far too anxious.

"Hurry! Help me find my daughter! She's been missing for days! If anything happens to her, I won't be able to go on living!!!"

Seeing Tong, Rin's mother grabbed her arm as if it were a lifeline, instinctively squeezing hard, making Tong feel a sharp pain... Well, with her dragon blood constitution, it was only a little bit of pain.

"Madam, please calm down and speak slowly."

When Hitomi and Zhu Sha go on missions, Hitomi handles almost all the negotiations and communication. As for Zhu Sha... well, she's better off focusing on being beautiful and charming, and rescuing this director when necessary.

"Judging from your tone, the missing girl is your daughter, right?"

"Yes! This child is so insensible! I only said a few words to her, and she stormed out in a huff! It's just outrageous!"

Lin's mother frowned, shaking her head with a look of exasperation at her son's lack of ambition.

"I thought she would just be throwing a little tantrum like before and come back in a bit, but who knew this time... sigh!"

Tong felt uncomfortable listening to the mother's words, but her professional instincts told her she should gather more information.

"Did Rin say anything to you before she ran away from home? We need to know some information."

"Sigh... Her results at the Zhongpu Championship weren't very good this time, and she still insisted on going to the amusement park to see some aurora show, saying she had made plans with some classmates and friends... Can you believe it? She made plans to go out before the competition results were even out, so her mind wasn't on anything important at all!"

Rin's mother sighed and began to recount her story:

"I tried to persuade her not to let herself get distracted by playing around! Focus on training first. She's just a kid, how could she understand the good intentions of adults? And she actually talked back to me!"

"I said some hurtful things, telling her to stop fantasizing about being a 'goddess' or about adventure all the time, and to practice more! Let her see how hard that little girl who won the championship worked! And look at her! All she thinks about is playing! Sigh..."

"Finally... we had a huge fight, and she left the hotel and never came back... until I saw the video of her disappearing at the subway entrance online."

“I’ve asked many people for help, and I’ve barely eaten or slept these past few days, searching everywhere for her, but to no avail… Finally, someone told me to try entrusting Longchao Pavilion to them… You must find my daughter! If anything happens to my daughter, all the effort I’ve poured into her over the years will be for nothing!”

Tong Qiang smiled and nodded, inwardly thinking: What kind of formulaic statements are these from the parents of the Kowloon school...?

"So, your daughter ran away from home because she had a conflict with you?"

Upon hearing this, the mother angrily shook off Tong's arm, raised her voice eight octaves, and loudly rebuked Tong, clearly indignant:

"Don't talk nonsense! My relationship with my daughter is perfectly fine!!!"

“We’ve depended on each other for so many years! Everything I’ve done is for her! She must have run into some trouble, or been scammed by someone… She would never get angry with me because of an argument! She would never do something like running away from home, something a bad kid would do!”

Tong was so startled that she took a step back.

'If I had parents like those, I would have been corrupted into a dragon long ago, wouldn't I? I really don't know what to say...'

"Okay, I understand now. Let's go check out the place where Rin was last seen."

"Please... I'm so worried about her... my precious daughter..."

Lin's mother, her face filled with worry, pressed her hands to her chest, praying helplessly...

Tong didn't want to get entangled with her any longer, so she grabbed Zhu Sha and prepared to leave.

But Zhu Sha's heels seemed to be rooted to the spot; she stood there, looking in the direction behind Lin's mother, and couldn't be pulled away.

What's so interesting about it?

"No need to look anymore. I've brought the person."

Before the people arrive, the sound comes first.

Behind Rin's mother, Min Moyou slowly walked towards them, carrying a somewhat frightened and haggard little Rin.

Upon seeing Min Moyou's figure, Tong's eyes widened in surprise—

Huh? No!?

Min Moyou, you're already so rich, yet you're still trying to steal our commissions?! Trying to steal our chosen leading lady for our movie?!

You're inhuman!! You're rich but heartless!!

Thinking this to herself, Tong instinctively hid behind Zhu Sha.

Zhongpu Ward is so big, how come there are Minmo You everywhere?!

What a hell!

Zhu Sha hasn't seen Min Moyou for quite a while, and she misses him terribly!

However, seeing that Min Moyou was accompanied by a girl, she guessed that something had happened, so she suppressed her excitement and did not rush up to hug him tightly and start kissing him passionately!

Pulling up Tong's hands from behind and wrapping them around her waist, the slightly petite Zhu Sha leaned into Tong's arms—

Ah~ I guess I'll just have to find some solace in the scent of the Golden-Eyed Lord...

...........

Upon hearing this, Lin's mother instinctively turned around and, sure enough, saw her beloved daughter whom she had been longing for!

Overwhelmed with emotion, she shed tears and stumbled towards Min Moyou and Lin, her thin and exhausted body falling to the ground.

"Rin! Little Rin! My daughter! My precious daughter... you're finally back..."

"Where did you go? Do you know how worried your mother was? Do you know how long your mother searched for you?!"

"Xiao Lin... quick! Come to Mommy! Let Mommy take a good look at you... Tell Mommy, where have you been these past few days? Did you run into any bad people? Did anything happen to you? Huh?"

Rin's mother stepped forward and reached out to pull Rin away from Min Moyou.

Seeing that things were not going well, Xiao Lin dodged and hid behind Min Moyou, looking at him pitifully with pleading eyes.

Hurry! Good brother! It's your turn! You wouldn't just hand this goddess over to the wicked queen like this, would you?!

Min Moyou gave her a reassuring smile and reached out to stop Lin's mother.

He clearly saw that besides worry, Rin's mother's face also contained a hint of anger and resentment...

If Rin were to fall into her hands, Rin's mother would probably grab her in public and slap her bottom hard! Then she'd repeatedly question her: "Will you dare do it again?! Will you dare do this again?!"

She'll show no mercy until Rin gives in, and in the end, she'll probably say something like, "It hurts a mother's heart to punish her child!" to morally blackmail him...

Tsk, why does Minmoyou know so much?

Because he lived in such a family before he transmigrated, it's just that Min Moyou's parents didn't have as high expectations for him as Lin's mother did for Xiao Lin. He could meet those expectations to some extent, so he wasn't driven crazy and still had some breathing room from time to time.

Isn't that how everyone has gone through it?

Far away.

"Madam, are you really Xiaolin's relative or guardian? It seems... Xiaolin doesn't want to go back with you."

Rin's mother tried to pull away Min Moyou's hand, which was blocking her from finding her daughter, but she couldn't budge it. After a fruitless struggle, she finally shifted her gaze from Rin and sized up the man in front of her with a very unfriendly expression.

"Yes! Of course I am! I am Xiaolin's mother! I can prove it if you don't believe me! Xiaolin is my daughter!"

"Sir, please, please give me back my Xiao Lin! I would be so grateful!"

"I...I...I can give you some money as payment! You want money, right? How much? Name your price! As long as you give Xiao Lin back to me, I'm willing to give you any amount of money! Don't worry, I absolutely won't call the police or accuse you of extortion..."

Min Moyou remained unmoved, while Xiao Lin behind him silently gave him a thumbs up and rubbed against his back.

'Phew~ That was close. I thought this kind older brother would be won over by Mom's money...'

Upon seeing this, Lin's mother immediately assumed that Min Moyou was the scoundrel who had abducted her daughter! The culprit who had caused her daughter to stay away from home for so many days!!

The atmosphere grew increasingly tense, and Rin's mother paced anxiously in circles!

Turning around, she saw the person she had hired after posting the commission was still standing there, and she was furious.

"Dragon Tide Pavilion! What are you doing?! What are you doing hugging and cuddling over there? My daughter is right there, bring her back to me right now!"

"I paid to publish this commission! What kind of work attitude is this?! I'm going to file a complaint against your company!"

Tong was planning to sneak away, otherwise, if Min Moyou caught her, she'd be in for another messy ordeal...

Then the fire suddenly spread to his side, leaving Tong completely stunned!

Zhu Sha chuckled with delight, releasing her grip on Tong's hands and gesturing to her: "Do as you please? I'll watch the show!"

Tong opened her mouth slightly in shock and pointed to herself.

"Huh? Me?"

"Who else could it be but you! Aren't you an employee of Longchao Pavilion? Didn't I pay Longchao Pavilion to hire you?!"

"hiss......"

Tong gasped.

Me? Snatching someone from Min Moyou's hands?

seriously?
