That smiling tiger, Mu Jiao'er, is still somewhat known. Those who have been dealt with by him disappear from this world without a trace, as if they had never existed.
She does not want to become such a person.
What should she do? What should she do?
"Jiao Er, are you there? Are you sure you're okay right now?" Ye Zixun asked with a strange frown, as if Mu Jiao'er's breathing had become more rapid.
He never liked this woman, and now he found her even more annoying.
Upon hearing his question, Mu Jiao'er, afraid he would notice something was wrong, hastily made up an excuse to brush it off.
"I... I'm fine, just caught a cold. Zi Xun, I'll come find you now!"
"No need! Since you're sick right now, there's even less reason for you to come see me. Just take care of yourself and don't call me unless it's something important."
"Hey, Zi Xun..."
Before Mu Jiao'er could say anything else, the sound of the call being disconnected came through.
Mu Jiao'er felt a wave of fear wash over her.
She took a step back and slumped down on the sofa.
Things had reached an uncontrollable point; what should she do now? What should she do?
Suddenly, she thought of Mu Jiangfeng.
Mu Jiangfeng was in the same boat as her. If something happened to her, Mu Jiangfeng would not be able to escape either; they were both accomplices.
In the current situation, Mu Jiao'er couldn't handle this alone; only Mu Jiangfeng could think of a way to deal with it.
Thinking about it, Mu Jiao'er picked up her phone again and called Mu Jiangfeng.
"Hello! Mu Jiangfeng, I have something private to discuss with you."
"Uh-huh!" Mu Jiangfeng answered the phone, murmuring as he walked outside the hospital room, even stopping the action of peeling an apple.
Is this Mu Jiao'er crazy? She clearly knows that he is with Lan Baobao right now, yet she calls at this moment. Does she want to expose him?
This crazy woman has never let up from the beginning, and now she won't let anyone else have peace. It's really annoying!
"Hey, what do you want? I'm very busy right now, could you please not bother me?"
"You think I want to bother you for no reason? Am I sick? Mu Jiangfeng, there's new information about our situation. Things are starting to get chaotic now, what should we do?"
What new situation?
Mu Jiangfeng couldn't understand a word. Is Mu Jiao'er playing some new trick? Seeing that his plan was about to succeed and Lan Baobao had already fallen into his trap, yet everything on his side was in chaos.
How could Mu Jiao'er let someone else benefit while suffering herself? She's not that noble of a person.
If there are benefits, it would already be good enough if she didn't take more than her share; splitting those benefits with Mu Jiangfeng would be her absolute limit. If something bad happens, don't even think she would bear any extra burden.
Mu Jiao'er certainly doesn't want to see Mu Jiangfeng and Lan Baobao happily together while she ends up in trouble. If something happens, everyone should be involved together.
"Mu Jiangfeng, I have a lot going on here; it's already a mess. I need your help this time; you absolutely cannot be a coward!"
"Do you know what's going on?"
Hearing Mu Jiao'er's voice was very anxious, completely unlike her usual charming and gentle tone that made people feel comfortable.
Now she was like an ant that had been burned on the eyebrows, making a fuss and not allowing anyone to feel at ease.
Even the usually calm Mu Jiangfeng was a bit irritated by her.
"Can you please quiet down and clearly explain what's going on? Stop being so annoying; I'm very busy!"
Mu Jiao'er finally managed to calm her emotions and could sort out her thoughts.
"The thing is, after you hung up on me, I went home. Then, I called Ye Zixun."
"You called Ye Zixun? Did he ask about his daughter?" Mu Jiangfeng didn't expect her to be so anxious. It hadn't been long since she had just taken Ye Ziru away, and she immediately called Ye Zixun.
Wouldn't this raise Ye Zixun's suspicions? This Mu Jiao'er was really foolish, always doing such brainless things. For someone like her, who appeared to be a clever mistress playing tricks, she could be so stupid when it came to practical matters.
Suddenly, he thought that Mu Jiao'er's sudden emotional instability must be related to Ye Zixun. What did Ye Zixun do?
Mu Jiangfeng felt a bit anxious as well: "You called Ye Zixun; what did he say that made you so agitated?"
"He... he has already reported it to the police, and he might use special means. From what Ye Zixun seems to imply, it looks like he wants Gu Feng to get involved in the investigation."
Now Mu Jiao'er was truly scared, fearing that if the matter was exposed, Ye Zixun would not let her off the hook.
But if it fell into Gu Feng's hands...
First of all, he had no feelings for her at all. On the other hand, his attitude toward Lan Baobao was quite clear; anyone who harmed Lan Baobao would not escape Gu Feng's wrath.
Gu Feng knew these things; it would be strange if he didn't skin her alive!
"Mu Jiangfeng, Gu Feng is not an easy person to deal with. You should know his background, right? If Gu Feng finds out that we were behind this, what should we do? Think of a way for me now!"
Mu Jiangfeng curled his lips in a cold smile outside the hospital room, not expecting that Mu Jiao'er could also feel fear. However, was it too late to be afraid now?
Ye Zixun clearly knew that Gu Feng was also one of Lan Baobao's pursuers, and even invited Gu Feng to join in, which proved that Ye Zixun had been pushed to the edge this time.
No matter the cost, he had to find Ye Ziru, which also meant finding the person who kidnapped Ye Ziru. He would definitely make them pay a heavy price!
"Alright, I understand. Leave this matter to me. At this point, you don't need to be afraid anymore. Just take a good rest for now, and I'll call you later."
After saying that, Mu Jiangfeng hung up the phone without caring how anxious Mu Jiao'er was on the other end. His eyes narrowed slightly.
With things reaching this point, it was difficult to handle. The police and Gu Feng were both involved in this matter. If they found Ye Ziru before him, Lan Baobao would not easily go abroad with him.
He had done so much, even making Lan Baobao think he was a disgusting person. If he ultimately failed, he wouldn't know how to face it!
Mu Jiangfeng had to get Lan Baobao; there could be no mistakes!
No, he must leave for abroad early! He had to act before Ye Zixun and Gu Feng discovered what was happening.
As for Mu Jiao'er, her matters were none of his concern.
Originally, everyone had agreed that each person would take half of the responsibility.
She was responsible for Ye Zixun, while Mu Jiangfeng was responsible for Lan Baobao. Since his task was already completed, there was no need to delay any longer.
His cooperative relationship with Mu Jiao'er would also come to an end immediately.
Thinking this way, Mu Jiangfeng's mood calmed down slightly as he organized his emotions and walked into the hospital room. He did not want Lan Baobao to know about what had just happened.
If she found out that Ye Zixun had already started taking action, she would surely rekindle some inexplicable hope.
The best way to take her away was to first make her feel despair, to think of herself as a person who was isolated and helpless.
As he walked into the hospital room, Mu Jiangfeng smiled and approached the bedside. After placing his phone on the nightstand, he quietly sat beside the bed and continued to peel an apple for Lan Baobao.
At that moment, Lan Baobao glanced at the phone on the nightstand, her brows slightly furrowing.
After Mu Jiangfeng finished his call, it seemed that his expression had changed a bit. The call he just received must have been from the kidnapper.
"Ah, it hurts! It feels so uncomfortable, Mu Jiangfeng, my chest feels so tight!" Suddenly, Lan Baobao screamed, rubbing her temples.
Sure enough, Mu Jiangfeng fell for it.
Caught completely off guard by Lan Baobao's cries of pain, he jumped up from his chair in shock, his face filled with terror. Mu Jiangfeng dropped the knife and apple and excitedly grabbed Lan Baobao's shoulders, anxiously asking,
"Baby, what's wrong? Does your head still hurt? Are you feeling unwell? Where does it feel tight and uncomfortable? Is it really unbearable?!"
"Yes! It hurts so much!" She pretended to be in pain, rubbing her temples and frowning as she said, "My head suddenly hurts so badly, it feels like something is stabbing me. It's so uncomfortable... it hurts... Mu Jiangfeng, please go call a doctor for me quickly."
As they say, concern leads to chaos. Mu Jiangfeng's heart was solely focused on Lan Baobao. When he saw her in pain, he became flustered and couldn't think that this was a trap.
He was already frightened by Lan Baobao's painful appearance and was completely disoriented!
"Okay, okay! I'll go find a doctor right away. You just lie down and don't get agitated; I'll call for a doctor immediately."
After giving his instructions, Mu Jiangfeng rushed out of the hospital room in a panic.
Seeing him rush out of the room, Lan Baobao immediately picked up the phone from the nightstand. After swiping on the phone, she looked for the call log.
Mu Jiao'er?
The name that suddenly appeared on the phone left Lan Baobao in shock. Lan Baobao never expected it to be Mu Jiao'er calling him; even the previous call was to Mu Jiao'er.
Why would he call Mu Jiao'er? Shouldn't he be calling the person taking care of the child?
Lan Baobao scrolled up through the call log, his mouth agape in disbelief, large enough to fit an egg.
Ah, during this time, Mu Jiao'er had actually been frequently calling Mu Jiangfeng?
The very first call...
Lan Baobao's heart sank. That call had come right after she had just left the Ye Family Old Residence.
Thinking back carefully, it seemed that Lan Baobao had a stomachache, thinking her period had started, and went to a 24-hour convenience store where she encountered Mu Jiao'er.
At that moment, Mu Jiao'er contacted Mu Jiangfeng, and they had been in touch ever since.
Why had Mu Jiangfeng never mentioned this?
His chest felt tight, making it hard to breathe.
Why was Mu Jiao'er doing this? Why was she instigating Mu Jiangfeng to commit such a despicable act, and why did she want to kidnap Ye Ziru?
She already had Ye Zixun's person; soon enough, she might even be married into the Ye family. Why go through such shameless and laborious efforts?
