Chapter 758 - 739: How is it possible for someone to look exactly the same?
Perhaps noticing Qin Mobai’s gaze, Lin Qianqian pretended to be deep in thought. After a moment, she said, "Bai Lu goes singing when she’s in a bad mood. Have you tried looking for her in the KTV?"
"I have looked. Almost turned Nancheng upside down but still couldn’t find her," Lu Li said, filled with worry and anxiety.
He feared more that Bai Lu might disappear forever.
"Sis-in-law, can you think of where else Bai Lu might go?" Lu Li seemed to pin all his hopes on "Lou Xi," but this Lou Xi wasn’t the real Lou Xi, so how could Lin Qianqian know where Bai Lu was?
Lin Qianqian pretended to strain her brain thinking about where Bai Lu might have gone, but in reality, she was thinking about what delicious food was available in this restaurant.
Qin Mobai took a deep look at Lou Xi and said, "You keep thinking, I’ll have a chat with Lu Li."
"Okay." Lin Qianqian couldn’t wait for Qin Mobai to take Lu Li away quickly, or she’d likely slip up!
Then, Qin Mobai and Lu Li moved to the side. Qin Mobai’s expression was much more serious now than it was before.
"Tell me honestly, what did you do to Bai Lu to make her so mad that she disappeared?" Qin Mobai knew that Lu Li hadn’t been truthful earlier, possibly because Lou Xi was present, and he feared being scolded by her.
Now it was just the two brothers, nothing was too hard to say.
Lu Li scratched his head, embarrassed to speak those words.
"Did you argue? Or what happened?"
After speaking, Lu Li didn’t dare to meet Qin Mobai’s eyes.
Qin Mobai was somewhat incredulous upon hearing Lu Li’s words, looking at the man in front of him. Was this still the courteous Lu Li he knew? Did he actually have the nerve to force Bai Lu?
"You really are..." Qin Mobai didn’t know how to criticize Lu Li, "If I were Bai Lu, I’d definitely ignore you too!"
"I know I’m wrong, and I’m ready to apologize to her. But who would’ve thought she’d just vanish? I can’t reach her by phone or WeChat. What else can I do?" Lu Li suddenly felt aggrieved. It was his first time in love; how could he know all the complexities?
Qin Mobai gave Lu Li a glare, thinking it was fortunate Lu Li hadn’t blurted out in front of "Lou Xi." Otherwise, with Lou Xi’s personality, she surely wouldn’t have let Lu Li off the hook.
But when Qin Mobai turned back to look at "Lou Xi," he found that her expression held little concern, as if Bai Lu’s disappearance didn’t bother her at all?
Was it an illusion or what? Qin Mobai always felt something was off about Lou Xi.
It must be a delusion; Lou Xi is just Lou Xi. Surely there can’t be another person looking exactly like Lou Xi?
With that thought, Qin Mobai pulled back his gaze and said to Lu Li, "What did the school say? Bai Lu withdrawing would definitely make them ask what she’s planning. Besides, if you can’t find her in Nancheng, check to see if there’s any record of her leaving at the train station or airport, and where her credit cards and debit cards have been used recently."
Sometimes outsiders see things more clearly than those directly involved. Lu Li, usually shrewd, seemed like a headless fly with no sense of direction after Bai Lu went missing.
With Qin Mobai’s advice, Lu Li suddenly regained his clarity. How could he lose his head now? He needed to search for Bai Lu systematically!
