Chapter 2100: A Wild Task-Taker
“2333, are you there? Please reply.” Ning Shu mentally called out to 2333.
No response.
Ning Shu shouted again. “2333, are you there?”
Still no response.
Ning Shu had a bad feeling about this. 2333 couldn’t have gotten sucked in by the black hole, right?
Did that make her a wild task-taker without an organization from now on?
Noooo!
“Ahhhhhh… “
Ning Shu screamed for a while but 2333 still didn’t respond. She shut up but was very worried about her system space.
The private detective also gave Ning Shu an update and told her that Bai Feifei’s mother had been found.
Ning Shu drove to the private detective’s office and asked, “Where is she?”
“She wasn’t in the country before, but has recently returned to China.”
“Where is she now?” Ning Shu asked.
The private detective gave Ning Shu an address. She quickly found the hotel where Bai Feifei’s mother was staying.
She rang the doorbell of the hotel room.
Ning Shu rang it twice before the door opened.
Bai Feifei was only sixteen so her mother wasn’t too old. Yet she looked older and more exhausted than Mother Wen.
The woman eyed Ning Shu warily, and looked her up and down. Ning Shu was dressed in crisp, designer clothes, so the woman was even more wary. Her husband had been in the clothing business, so she naturally picked some things up and was easily able to tell the price of these clothes.
“Who are you and who are you looking for?” Bai Feifei’s mother opened the door just a bit.
“You are Bai Feifei’s mother? I came to look for you specifically. I have something to tell you.” Ning Shu reached her hand out to push the door, but Bai Feifei’s mother pushed against it. “I don’t know you. Please leave. “
“I don’t have an ulterior motive,” Ning Shu said. “I just want to warn you not to go find Tang Yu right now. He may try to kill you.”
“I don’t know you.” The woman’s expression changed and she slammed the door shut.
Ning Shu: …
Ning Shu saw that Bai Feifei’s mother wouldn’t speak to her, so she could only leave.
She went to the private detective and asked for a few things.
The private detective gave Ning Shu some photos. In them were snapshots of Tang Yu and Bai Feifei taken at the entrance of her school, at the amusement park, and at a western restaurant.
The syrupy sweetness of the two almost dripped from the photos.
Ning Shu also asked for the negatives and uploaded them to her computer. These were all useful.
Ning Shu paid, then took the photos and left.
After leaving the detective’s office, her cell phone rang. The phone number was Tang Yu’s.
Ning Shu couldn’t help but frown. Nothing good ever came from his calls.
Ning Shu coughed and answered the phone. “What’s the matter?”
“Wen Hanlei, let’s get married.” Tang Yu said. His voice was low and lacked any warmth.
Ning Shu: (╯°Д°)╯︵┻━┻
What was wrong with him, toying with someone like this. ‘The wedding will be postponed. Now it needs to be delayed. Now we should get married again.’
Did he think she was so cheap that he could do whatever he wanted? That she would come as soon as she’s called no matter her feelings?
He acted like marrying her was some great gift he was bestowing on her.
