Chapter 592: Chapter 592
He never imagined that Ning Wan would actually leave at this time, or even disappear without a trace. No matter how many people he sent out, they couldn’t find her whereabouts!
Now, he felt a bit of regret. If he had known this would happen, he would have had someone keep an eye on her when he left last night!
He also knew that if Ning Wan was intentionally hiding from him, no matter how hard he searched, he would never find her!
At this thought, Xi Mohan’s expression turned even colder, his eyes faintly revealing shards like broken ice!
Song Qiao’s face changed, and she suddenly realized what had felt wrong when Xi Mohan asked her where Ning Wan was from the start!
"Are you saying you went to see Ning Wan yesterday?" She asked almost mechanically, her brain blanking for a moment. A chill spread slowly from the soles of her feet throughout her body, as a possibility surfaced in her mind!
When the man heard Song Qiao’s question, his expression changed too, but he still spoke emotionlessly, uttering a single word, "Yes!"
"Xi Mohan!" Song Qiao stood up abruptly, looking directly at the man in front of her and coldly called out his name, then continued, "Do you know that the person Ning Wan least wants to see in her life is you? Don’t you know that?"
Seeing the increasingly cold look on the man’s face, Song Qiao let out a cold laugh, and spoke word by word, "Meeting you was simply the misfortune of Ning Wan’s three lifetimes. If you have any conscience left, can you please stop appearing in her life?"
"Song Qiao, this matter is between her and me!" Xi Mohan looked at her coldly, his face expressionless, his eyes churning with emotions, yet his tone remained utterly cold, "You just need to tell me where she is!"
"I don’t know where she is!"
"Mo Han, what are you doing here?" Right after Song Qiao finished speaking, Lu Jingchen had already settled the bill and came over. Seeing Xi Mohan and Song Qiao talking about something, with seemingly tight emotions between them, he frowned slightly and went straight to Song Qiao’s side, his low voice carrying neither confusion nor misunderstanding, "Why did you also come to the mall? Don’t you hate places ?"
Song Qiao had guessed that Lu Jingchen’s brother was Xi Mohan from what Lu Jingchen told her about Ning Wan spending time with his brother!
Xi Mohan gave Lu Jingchen a faint glance, his face still showing no expression, "I came to ask Song Qiao a few questions!"
"Are you two familiar with each other?" Lu Jingchen raised an eyebrow, directly wrapped an arm around Song Qiao’s waist, and uttered this sentence indifferently!
Song Qiao stiffened, her lips twitched without speaking. It was clear that this question was not meant for her, but for Xi Mohan opposite her, yet the question related to her, making it awkward for her to answer or to stay silent, so she chose to remain quiet!
Xi Mohan furrowed his brows slightly, showing little change in his expression, and said indifferently, "Just asking about some matters!"
Although he did not want to give up on such a good opportunity to find Ning Wan’s whereabouts, after all, in his eyes, Song Qiao and Ning Wan were best friends, and only Song Qiao would know where that woman was!
But now Song Qiao was Lu Jingchen’s wife, and Lu Jingchen was his brother, so it was not easy for him to put her on the spot!
All the way back to the car, Song Qiao felt that the chill inside her body not only did not dissipate but increased instead!
Her mind was in disarray but swiftly reached a conclusion!
Given Xi Mohan’s power in An City, it was impossible for him not to find Ning Wan unless she had disappeared from everyone’s sight!
Lu Jingchen got into the driver’s seat and immediately saw the pale, puzzled, and frightened face. He frowned slightly and leaned over to fasten Song Qiao’s seatbelt, then with one hand, he gripped her chin, forcing her to look at him, his deep voice kindly saying, "Qiaoqiao, don’t overthink it. This is something between Ning Wan and Xi Mohan, and it’s not for you to worry about!"
Hearing Lu Jingchen’s words, Song Qiao’s previously puzzled look instantly cleared up. Looking at the handsome face in front of her and seemingly echoing his words in her ears, she smiled, her gaze meeting the man’s eyes, a thin smile on her palm-sized face as she replied with a question, "Do you think I shouldn’t get involved with Wanwan’s matters? Or do you think because Xi Mohan is your brother, whatever he does is right? You knew since last night that Xi Mohan went to look for Wanwan, right?"
The hand that Lu Jingchen had on her chin tightened involuntarily, his handsome face suddenly stern, though with a smile that seemed somewhat dangerous, "Is that really how you think of me? I did know last night that Mo Han went to find Ning Wan, but what of it? Qiaoqiao, not to mention that you’re just good girlfriends with Ning Wan, this is something between the two of them and no matter how much you want to intervene, it has nothing to do with you!"
As expected, Song Qiao’s expression changed ever so slightly upon hearing his words! Thıs content belongs to novęlfire.net
Lu Jingchen then let go of her chin, sat up straight, and started the car, his tone neither warm nor cold as he continued, "Instead of finding something for yourself to worry about, you might as well take care of your own matters first!"
The man’s words obviously had an implied meaning!
