Fortunately, Lu Ze arrived in time, preventing a tragedy. Bai Mengmeng hugged Lu Ze gratefully, tears welling up in her eyes. Lu Ze gently patted her back, comforting her, "Don't be afraid, I will always protect you."
After calming down, Bai Mengmeng immediately realized the problem: how did this man get into her home? Normally, her home's security system should be the most secure, so why would such a dangerous person be allowed to break in? A strong sense of unease and doubt welled up in her heart.
Bai Mengmeng acted decisively, immediately ordering her subordinates to launch an investigation and find out exactly what had happened. The fact that a wanted criminal could brazenly appear in her home was no accident. She had to find out the reason and ensure the safety of her family and herself.
While awaiting the investigation results, Bai Mengmeng fell into deep thought. She recalled the man's eyes, filled with despair and sorrow, as if burdened with a heavy weight. However, no matter what, he shouldn't have appeared before her in this way. Bai Mengmeng decided to get to the bottom of this matter and give herself an explanation.
Looking at the mess on the ground, Lu Ze felt a pang of heartache and took Bai Mengmeng back to his home, remaining silent the entire way. Once home, Bai Mengmeng broke the silence: "I want to see him!" Lu Ze, knowing her pain and anger, nodded silently and drove Bai Mengmeng towards Wang Cheng's house.
The car stopped in front of Wang Cheng's house. Bai Mengmeng got out without hesitation and rushed inside. She immediately saw Wang Cheng sitting on the sofa, her face filled with rage. Wang Cheng was surprised by Bai Mengmeng's arrival but didn't seem to care, maintaining his cold expression. Bai Mengmeng bluntly demanded, "Let's get this straight today. What exactly do you want? One day you'll kill me!"
Wang Cheng was taken aback by Bai Mengmeng's audacity, daring to come directly to his door to provoke him. His face darkened, and he sneered, "Hmph, why should I tell you? I can kill whoever I want!"
Looking at the crazed man before her, Bai Mengmeng became increasingly certain that his target was only the Bai family. At that moment, Uncle Bai rushed over, anxiously asking what had happened. After learning what had transpired, he angrily questioned Wang Cheng: "What grudge do you hold against my Bai family that you would resort to such a vicious act?"
Wang Cheng rushed forward, his eyes flashing with hatred: "You may have forgotten how my parents died!" Uncle Bai was stunned, realizing that Wang Cheng suspected him of being the murderer. He firmly stated, "I, Bai Wenxun, am an upright person and would never do such a heinous thing!"
Seeing his stubbornness, Wang Cheng continued, "Have you forgotten the couple who died on your construction site?" Uncle Bai then remembered what happened back then and was startled. Seeing his hesitation, Wang Cheng sneered, "You still won't admit it now?"
Uncle Bai sighed and sat on the sofa, his expression solemn. "Child, you may have misunderstood. There's more to what happened back then than meets the eye."
Wang Cheng frowned, his face full of doubt and disbelief. "How could there be any inside story? I've investigated everything thoroughly!"
Uncle Bai shook his head helplessly and said slowly, "The construction site back then was indeed mine, and the accident happened on my construction site. But you can think about it. Back then, I was a small business. Without other people's financial support, how could I have taken on projects? To put it bluntly, I was just working for others."
Wang Cheng's eyes widened, and he asked urgently, "Who told you to do this?"
Uncle Bai sighed and continued, "The Li Wei family is the one your father used to curry favor with. Your investigation must all point to my fault, because your father was a gambler and borrowed money, so your mother and father came to work on the construction site. At first, they were doing well, and your father wanted to be like me, so he went to curry favor with the Li Wei family. Unexpectedly, he suffered losses because of it. The Li Wei family started pressuring for repayment, and they didn't know their own strength, which led to the deaths of your parents. That's all I know, and the Li Wei family probably got their comeuppance too; they died a few years later as well."
Upon hearing this, Wang Cheng's body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground, muttering to himself, "Everyone tells me that you killed them, that they died at your construction site..."
Bai Mengmeng couldn't help but secretly wonder if all of this was a conspiracy orchestrated by someone. Just like how Zhu Ting was framed for an accident at the construction site, leading to public criticism. But what was the truth? Back then, no one knew the full story; everyone assumed it was an accident at the Bai family's construction site. Just then, Uncle Bai suddenly pulled Bai Mengmeng up and walked towards Wang Cheng without hesitation, saying firmly, "I came to see you before, do you remember? I asked you if you wanted to come with me." Wang Cheng stood silently, without responding. Uncle Bai sighed helplessly and could only take them home.
Recalling the scene from that day, Wang Cheng finally understood why he remembered his enemy's face. He struggled to his feet and ordered his men to immediately investigate who this man named Li Weiguo was. He simply couldn't believe that he had mistaken the target of his revenge all these years! But it was too late; things had already escalated to an irreversible point. Therefore, he devised a plan, deciding to make everyone involved pay with their lives.
Bai Mengmeng comforted her father, saying, "Dad, at least we know his true colors now, and we've confronted him face-to-face, so we feel more confident." However, Uncle Bai scolded Bai Mengmeng for being so impulsive. He said sternly, "Since he could use such vicious methods to harm you, it means he must have other intentions. A person as depraved as him is incapable of changing anything. So, Mengmeng, you must be careful!" After saying that, Uncle Bai turned to scold Lu Ze, saying sternly, "Lu Ze, how could you put Mengmeng in danger? This is no joke." Lu Ze lowered his head, his face full of guilt.
Uncle Bai continued, "You should move out. It's too unsafe to stay there." He looked at Lu Ze and softened his tone. "I'm not blaming you, but nobody expected something like this to happen at their own hotel. I'll handle this personally first thing tomorrow morning. Mengmeng, you need to move out today as soon as possible. Lu Ze, you also need to make sure your mother is settled in, in case anything unexpected happens." After saying this, Uncle Bai stopped talking and turned to go back to his room to rest.
Bai Mengmeng pulled Lu Ze out of the room, saying as they walked, "Where should we move to? We mainly need to find a place that's close to both of us." Lu Ze, however, was more concerned about Bai Mengmeng's safety. He frowned and said, "But where can we guarantee your safety?"
