Day n of not wanting to be a kept man's canary

Chapter 73 My Sister-in-Law is Delicious

Although she didn't know why Mu Yanxin wanted her to describe her sister's appearance, she vaguely sensed from her expression that what she was about to say might be related to her sister.

Xia He asked with a serious expression, "Sister, why are you asking this...?"

"I went to the Mu's factory yesterday and met a girl who looks a lot like you, but I'm not sure if she's Xia Lu!"

Mu Yanxin recounted the entire process of her meeting the girl yesterday to Xia He, word by word.

Upon hearing this, Xia He burst into tears, her emotions running high. "Sister, Xia He has short hair, is petite, has an oval face, and her smile is incredibly sweet!"

She tried to recall what her sister looked like in her memory, and as she spoke, she grabbed her head with both hands and scratched it, saying painfully, "I don't know what she looks like now!"

Xia Lu is currently in puberty, a time when she is growing taller, and her hairstyle is easily changed, so it is not a characteristic of Xia Lu.

Mu Yanxin reached out and stroked Xia He's hand, comforting her and calming her down. "Don't rush. Think about whether Xia Lu has any other special features, such as a mole on her face."

Reminded like this, Xia He became even more agitated, grabbing Mu Yanxin's arm with her slender hand, "Oh right, how could I forget this? Xia Lu has a beauty mark under her eye, she has a beauty mark under her eye!"

After saying that, she looked at Mu Yanxin's lips with anticipation, as if the words had been snatched away from her mouth.

Mu Yanxin nodded, her tone relaxed, "That's right, that girl does have a beauty mark at the corner of her eye!"

Because the mole is located in a rather unique place, it makes a strong first impression.

"It's Xia Lu, it's Xia Lu!" Xia He cried and laughed excitedly.

"It's good that you're still alive, it's good that you're alive!"

As long as she's alive, there's hope of being rescued, or at least knowing where she is.

Xia He was restless and got out of bed to go outside, but Mu Yanxin stopped her, "What are you going to do now?"

Xia He laughed lightly, "I'll go and bring my sister back!"

"Get him? How do you think Madam Mu will let you get him so easily?" Mu Yanxin frowned. She also wanted to get her brother out immediately.

Hearing Mu Yanxin's serious tone, Xia He also realized that she had been a bit impulsive. She had been too excited just now and hadn't thought about the consequences.

"Sister, what do you think I should do?"

Mu Yanxin sighed deeply, "We can only take a long-term approach. To rescue Xia Lu, we need to bring down the Mu family. To bring down the Mu family, we need evidence!"

Xia He: "Then let's go find the evidence!"

Mu Yanxin looked troubled, turned and walked to the windowsill, looking helplessly outside. "Evidence is not so easy to obtain. It's not easy to even get into the Mu Group factory. Moreover, everyone who wants to go in has to be searched and is prohibited from bringing anything, especially electronic products."

“There is not just one Xia Lu among the victims, but tens of thousands of Xia Lu!”

After hearing this, Xia He's mood plummeted; it was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head.

"What should we do? What should we do?"

Mu Yanxin said dejectedly, "We can only wait for an opportunity."

He turned around and comforted her, "Don't worry, it's important to get better first. Now that we know where Xia Lu is, we'll find an opportunity!"

Xia He had no choice but to nod.

Just then, the phone rang. It was a message from Leng Tingye, with no preamble and just a few simple words.

"Come have dinner with me!"

I checked the time and realized it was already 11 a.m.

Mu Yanxin patted Xia He's shoulder, "You should rest first. Saving people can't be rushed. I have to go now!"

"Okay, you go ahead and get busy, sister!"

……

After leaving the hospital, Leng Tingye did not let her go to the wild gate this time.

Artificial Technology Park.

The receptionist was a pretty young woman. Seeing Mu Yanxin, she gave her a professional smile and asked, "Miss, who are you looking for?"

Leng Changqing works here now, so she can't just say she's here to see Leng Tingye. What if she gets caught? That would be...

Mu Yanxin thought for a second, and to avoid suspicion, said, "Hello, I'm here to deliver lunch to my husband!"

The receptionist asked in a gentle voice, "Who is your husband?"

This stumped Mu Yanxin. She only knew that Leng Changqing worked at Leng Tingye's company, but she didn't know his current position. She wondered if she would know if she heard his name.

"Leng Changqing!"

"Oh, so it's the Second Young Mistress Leng!"

The receptionist smiled even more brightly, walked around from the back to the front, and warmly took the insulated bag from Mu Yanxin's hands. "Young Madam Leng, I'll take you there right away!"

CEO's office.

Leng Tingye and Leng Changqing were dealing with work when Leng Changqing became restless, fidgeting with his hips every now and then.

"Boom boom boom!"

A knock on the door broke the oppressive atmosphere. Leng Changqing was about to say "please come in" when he remembered that this wasn't his small company, so he didn't dare to say anything!

"Go in!" Leng Tingye didn't look up.

"President, it's Assistant Leng!"

"Assistant Leng, your loved one has brought you lunch!"

The two men looked over at the same time. Leng Tingye's eyes were cold and handsome, which startled the receptionist so much that she turned around and ran away.

Leng Changqing glanced at Leng Tingye quickly, his face chillingly cold.

He got up and walked towards the door, lowering his voice in an annoyed tone, "Who the hell told you to bring me lunch?"

"What do you think this place is?" he said, frantically gesturing for her to leave.

Mu Yanxin was caught in a dilemma. She couldn't leave, nor could she stay. She had been summoned by Leng Tingye, and she dared not leave unless he gave her permission.

Leng Changqing kept giving her meaningful glances, and she looked at Leng Tingye with a questioning gaze.

"What are you looking at? Get out of here with your lousy food." Leng Changqing was afraid that if Mu Yanxin stayed any longer, she would anger Leng Tingye, and then he would suffer as well.

She turned to leave when Leng Tingye suddenly spoke up, "Little sister-in-law is here?"

Leng Changqing chuckled dryly, "I'll make her leave right now!"

"No, please! It's rare to find someone as virtuous as my sister-in-law. How can we let her good intentions go to waste!"

These words were reasonable, but they took on a different meaning in Mu Yanxin's ears.

Since Leng Tingye had spoken, Leng Changqing couldn't say anything more. He stretched out his arm to stop her and said good-naturedly, "Fourth brother, I'll take her somewhere else to eat first, so I won't bother you any longer!"

The company has a cafeteria, supposedly to avoid disturbing others, but actually because eating with Leng Tingye was too oppressive, and he wanted some free space.

But Leng Tingye wouldn't let him have his way. He closed his laptop and said, "Let's go together then, I'm hungry too!"

Leng Changqing pulled his foot back after taking a step, looking troubled.

"Second brother, are you afraid I'll eat..." Leng Tingye raised an eyebrow at Mu Yanxin, the rest of the sentence was in his eyes.
