Fang Ya only grew more agitated. “Where is my mother going? What exactly is she going to do? Can you tell me?”
He Feng sat at the side and scrutinized Shao Hua, as if he wanted to see something on his face.
Shao Hua did not mind it. He just smiled at He Feng and said to Fang ya, “Your mother is fine! You will get news of her tomorrow!”
Seeing that Shao Hua was refusing to say anything, Fang Ya stood up from her chair. “If I can’t find my mother, I’ll have to go to the police!”
Shao Hua’s expression did not change. He only smiled and said, “I’m afraid the police won’t care!”
“Is that right, Captain He?” Shao Hua turned his head and asked He Feng.
He Feng frowned. He did not expect Shao Hua to recognize him.
He Feng felt that Shao Hua was not as simple as he seemed.
However, he could only grasp at straws at this point and did not dare jump to conclusions.
Shao Hua remained unperturbed. He turned back to Fang Ya, “Believe me, your mother will be fine!”
Fang Ya saw that she could not find out the truth from Shao Hua no matter what, so she was at a loss.
Fang Ya turned to look at He Feng, wanting to ask for help.
He Feng held Fang Ya’s hand tightly and said to Shao Hua, “Okay! We’ll go back first and wait for the news!”
Shao Hua’s smile did not diminish as he said to He Feng, “Believe me, I won’t let anything happen to my sister!”
He Feng nodded and held Fang Ya’s hand as they walked out. “We’ll take our leave first!”
Shao Hua did not send them out. He only looked at the backs of the two of them as they left, deep in thought.
Fang Ya followed He Feng out of the old shop. They walked to the intersection and got into a car parked by the roadside.
It was already nightfall. Fang Ya was worried about Uncle Chen driving at night. He Feng had especially borrowed Li Tong’s car to come to Ping An Street.
The two of them sat in the car. Fang Ya took a deep breath and turned to look at He Feng. “Something was clearly off with that man.”
He Feng nodded. He felt the same.
“I think he must be hiding something from us!” Fang Ya continued, “Besides, he has been emphasizing that he will have news about mom tomorrow. Why can’t he tell us today?”
The more Fang Ya spoke, the stranger she found it. “Do you think he kidnapped mom?”
“But what’s the benefit of kidnapping mom?” Fang Ya mumbled to herself. “Even if he kidnapped mom, he still has to tell us! Why did he call us here?”
The more Fang Ya thought about it, the more she found it strange.
He Feng, on the other hand, frowned and carefully recalled.
“He talked about Xinhua village in the west of the city today...” He Feng recalled what Shao Hua had said today.
“He didn’t meet us in the west of the city, but in Ping An Street in the east of the city,” He Feng continued, not looking at Fang Ya’s expression.
“That’s strange!” Fang Ya nodded in agreement.
“I think mom should still be on the west side of the city,” He Feng guessed.
Fang Ya knew He Feng would not make ungrounded guesses, but Fang Ya could not figure out where he was coming from.
He Feng hesitated for a moment and asked, “Have you guys been doing anything recently?”
“Us? You mean me and Wang Xu?” Fang Ya looked at He Feng in confusion.
“Yes! You and the people around you,” He Feng added.
Fang Ya thought for a moment and began to recount the things she had done recently.
“The renovation of my shop is almost complete, so I asked Wang Xu and Chu Qi to start working on real estate investment projects around here.” Fang Ya recalled what she had done recently.
“Real estate investment projects? Where?” He Feng asked again.
“Well, Wang Xu is better at dealing with the second-hand housing market, so she looked around the neighboring...”Fang Ya said, her eyes wide open. “West side of the city?”
“I think you may have caught someone’s eye,” He Feng said uncertainly.
