Chapter 307: Where’s My Daughter?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The servants did not dare to ask further. They immediately prepared tea and snacks and handed them over to the butler to send to the study room.

The butler knocked on the door and entered. He saw Old Master Li and Li Nanchen.

They sat facing each other without saying a word.

The atmosphere was uncomfortable.

The butler’s intention was to stand by the side and serve them at any time, but Old Master Li touched his walking stick before slowly raising his head to look at him.

He was also embarrassed and smiled at Old Master Li. “Old Master, please speak.”

Old Master Li pointed at the door of the study and said faintly, “Go and stand guard.”

Don’t let anyone in.

The butler hurriedly responded. He lowered his head and quickly walked out of the study room. He gently closed the door and guarded it firmly.

He hoped that this pair of grandfather and grandson would not quarrel.

They were alone in the study again.

Old Master Li then looked at Li Nanchen with a cold gaze. “Tell me, what happened?”

Li Nanchen and Wu Mei returned in a sorry state. Although they were already very careful and tried not to make too much noise, they still alerted Old Master Li.

Because of Wu Mei, Old Master Li did not question them on the spot, but he still needed an explanation.

Li Nanchen was already prepared.

When he was called to the study, he had already thought of a way to deal with Old Master Li.

He picked up his tea and sighed. “There are drug dealers in the Wu Corporation and they have guns in their hands. They made use of Auntie to threaten Wu Mei.”

Furious, Old Master Li straightened his back and said, “They are really bold.”

Li Nanchen agreed with him, “Exactly. Wu Mei called the police and we pretended to accede to them to save Auntie.”

“Grandpa, you also know that drug dealers are people who don’t care about their lives. After discovering that there were police officers, they chased after Mei’er and me.”

“But we ran so fast that they couldn’t catch up. Instead, they fell into the police’s trap.”

Old Master Li held his walking stick tightly and snorted. He asked in disbelief, “Is it that simple?”

Li Nanchen was just taking a sip of tea when he heard Old Master Li’s question. He choked on his tea and tears almost came out.

He took a deep breath and looked up. “Grandfather, how can this be simple? The other party had guns. Even if we had the police’s protection, our lives were in danger.”

“It’s just that our preparations were meticulous, so they didn’t succeed.”

Old Master Li sized Li Nanchen up and forced himself to believe Li Nanchen’s words. In the end, he only said angrily, “Next time, no, there won’t be a next time.”

Li Nanchen repeatedly said “yes” and promised to be extra careful in the future.

When Old Master Li heaved a sigh of relief, he thought of Mother Wu and shook his head. “This child was very decisive when she was young. How did she become like this?”

That’s right!

Why?!

As long as Mother Wu was a little cautious, she would not have implicated Wu Mei to this extent.

Li Nanchen smiled warmly and tried to coax Old Master Li, “Grandpa, don’t worry. Mei’er and I can protect you and Auntie.”

Needless to say, Old Master Li was very happy, but he still tried his best to control his expression. Maintaining a serious expression, he deliberately said disdainfully, “This old man doesn’t have any other abilities, but I can still protect myself. I don’t need your protection.”

When Li Nanchen put down his teacup, a vicious glint flashed across his eyes.

Self-protection?

He still remembered how Lin Liguo had schemed against the Li Family and how he had made all sorts of unreasonable requests to him.

If not for his grandfather’s safety and health, he would have found a way to get rid of Lin Liguo and Lin Piaopiao.

Old Master Li leaned against the sofa tiredly. He squinted his eyes and sighed. “Alright, I’ll go out first. You…”

The butler’s voice came from the door.

The butler seemed to be stopping someone who wanted to barge into the study.

Li Nanchen narrowed his eyes and glared coldly at the door of the study.

Old Master Li’s expression was not great either. However, he had already discussed things with Li Nanchen, so he could go and see who was looking for trouble.

He raised his voice and shouted, “Let him in.”

There was a short silence at the door.

The door to the study was opened and Lin Liguo walked in.

After the last time Lin Piaopiao found an excuse to stay in the Li Family, Lin Liguo became much quieter.

Lin Liguo was anxious. After greeting Old Master Li, he turned to Li Nanchen. “President Li, where’s Piaopiao?”

Li Nanchen raised his brows and looked disdainfully at Lin Liguo. He replied lightly, “Lin Piaopiao? Does Dr Lin not know where she is?”

This was also very strange!

Ever since Lin Piaopiao moved into the Li Family villa, she had never been content. However, she had been unusually quiet these past two days.

Had the servant not been sending all three meals a day into Lin Piaopiao’s room, he would have thought that she had left on her own.

Lin Liguo lowered his voice and said through gritted teeth, “President Lii, don’t make things difficult for me. If my daughter encounters danger in the Li family, I won’t let you off.”

“What are you talking about?” Old Master Li asked coldly.

Lin Liguo could not help but stiffen. He was used to using words to threaten Li Nanchen and had forgotten that Old Master Li was still sitting beside him.

He stammered, “I’m just too worried about my daughter.”

Old Master Li looked at Lin Liguo with a hint of disgust in his eyes.. He asked in dissatisfaction, “If you’re worried about her, why don’t you ask the servants to bring you to see her? Instead, you came to my study room to kick up a fuss.”
