At the foot of the Purple Mountain, a group of four people walked on a somewhat muddy path, and the yellow mud that could be seen everywhere was scattered in the green shade, and everything seemed very incongruous.

There were several excavators parked on the side of the road, but there was not a single worker in sight, and everything seemed quiet. Zhang Lili held Zhao Wan'er's arm and chatted affectionately while walking. Wang Liping, who was on the side, introduced the expropriation of land to the mother and daughter from time to time.

Because of the ambiguous actions of Wang Liping and Zhang Lili during lunch, Li Bing always had a pimple in his heart, and followed the three people silently.

found two families in a row who refused to relocate, but saw that the door was closed, Wang Liping had no choice but to take out a note from his briefcase, write down his intention and contact number, and stuffed it into the crack of the door.

When the four of them came to the last house, that is, the home of Wang Jie, a nurse in the Drum Tower Hospital, they were surprised to find that this was an ancient Hui school house handed down from the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Wang Liping stepped forward and knocked on the door, but he couldn't hear an answer, so he had no choice but to leave a note.

Just as Wang Liping called everyone to go back to Nanjing City with him, Li Bing stopped at the door and said to them: "You guys go back to the city first, I want to hurry up and figure out a lot of things, I want to stay here and wait for Wang Jie to come back." ”

Seeing Li Bing's resolute attitude, Zhao Wan'er also turned around and walked to Li Bing's side, and said to Zhang Lili and Wang Liping: "Liping, you accompany my mother back to the city first, and I will wait for Wang Jie here with Brother Li." When Brother Li's matter is resolved, I will be able to ask Brother Li to accompany me to track down my father's whereabouts. ”

Zhang Lili hesitated for a moment and did not agree. Seeing this, Wang Liping hurriedly said: "Wan'er, then you and Brother Li wait until Wang Jie understands the situation, call me, and I will drive to pick you up." ”

Zhao Wan'er didn't appreciate it: "No, don't I have a car?" Go with my mother. ”

Zhang Lili opened her mouth to speak, but Wang Liping secretly pulled Zhang Lili's shirt, and the two then turned around and left.

It is close to the Mid-Autumn Festival, although the sun is still a little scorching, but in the green shade of the foothills of the Purple Mountain, the autumn wind gusts, not so much cool, but a little cold.

While the two were waiting boredly, Li Bing said intentionally or unintentionally how Zhao Wan'er could find him to find his missing father.

Zhao Wan'er said that she left Li Bing's name when she invited the pen fairy, and Wang Liping also found Li Bing's file from the company, so she had to believe it, and specially rushed from Shanghai to Nanjing to find Li Bing.

Seeing that Zhao Wan'er was the same as the original statement, Li Bing noticed Zhao Wan'er's expression and didn't seem to be lying, but he noticed that it was Wang Liping who found his file in the company.

In Ms. Li's seemingly casual chat, Ms. Zhao recounted how she had rushed back to Shanghai from Hong Kong after her father's disappearance.

Zhang Lili insisted on Wang Liping to enter the company's board of directors, and when Zhao Yiming's whereabouts were unknown, she talked about Zhao Wan'er's marriage, and on the same day, regardless of Zhao Wan'er's objections, hastily made an engagement wine for Wang Liping and Zhao Wan'er.

Li Bing smiled fakely: "Wan'er, seeing that your mother loves you so much, presumably your father loves you so much, right?" It's enviable. ”

Zhao Wan'er heard Li Bing mention his father, her expression was suddenly full of pride, and told Li Bing how her father Zhao Yiming struggled to achieve today's achievements, and he has taken good care of Zhao Wan'er since he was a child, as long as he can do it, he will not obey his daughter.

Li Bing deliberately pretended to be puzzled: "Wan'er, then your father should also be in love with your mother?" But your father has been missing mysteriously for so many days, why don't you see your mother have a sad expression today? ”

Zhao Wan'er was a little sad when she heard Li Bing ask, and said helplessly: "After my father developed his career and made a lot of money, like most people, he fell in love with the life of dogs and horses, and he ignored his mother for many years. ”

Hearing this, Li Bing's heart suddenly brightened, and he guessed that it must be that Zhao Yiming and Zhang Lili must have had a long-term discordant relationship between husband and wife, and Zhang Lili couldn't bear the loneliness and hooked up with Wang Liping. But why did Zhang Lili still recruit Wang Liping as her son-in-law? Although they have more excuses to fool around together, the risk is even greater, and sooner or later people will find out, and at that time, how can she face her daughter with such a chaotic thing?

Li Bing remembered that Zhao Wan'er came to seek her help, for her bizarre and missing father Zhao Yiming, and a terrible thought came to mind: Could it be that Wang Liping coveted Zhao Yiming's family wealth, used a beautiful man to hook up with Zhao Yiming's wife Zhang Lili, and then designed and created this bizarre disappearance case in order to achieve the purpose of legally occupying Zhao Yiming's property?

Li Bing didn't dare to think about it anymore, because he understood that since ancient times, whether Chinese or foreign, there have been countless things to seek for money. Although it is not clear how they will make Zhao Yiming evaporate from the world, if they are wealthy, they will inevitably get rid of Zhao Yiming's designated legal heir, Zhao Yiming's daughter Zhao Wan'er, which is too terrible.

But after a while, Li Bing's heart was a little lighter, and he suddenly understood that Zhao Wan'er's life was not in danger for the time being. Because if it is really what he speculated, Wang Liping wants to inherit the property of Guangming Construction Group, the premise is that he must be legally married to Zhao Wan'er, and at present, Zhao Wan'er is only in a state of oral marriage with Wang Liping, and it has not been recognized by the law, because there will be no danger for the time being.

"Wan'er, your fiancé is dignified and magnificent, you are really a talented and beautiful woman, a match made in heaven." Li Bing pretended to test Zhao Wan'er easily.

Zhao Wan'er pouted: "Come on, Brother Li, don't make fun of me." I was so hastily engaged that I didn't even believe in myself, just because I didn't want my mother to be sad and agreed to it for the time being. If there is no legal effect, then everything is empty. He was very handsome, and I liked him, but I didn't know anything about him, at least I had to wait until I had finished tracking down my father's whereabouts, and then I would examine him for a few years before making a decision. ”

Li Bing smiled and diverted the topic. When the two were casually discussing the beautiful scenery of the Purple Mountain, they saw a young woman in a long skirt at the end of the trail driving a battery car head-on.

When the daughter arrived in front of them, Li Bing and Zhao Wan'er recognized at a glance that the person who came was Wang Jie, but the real person was a little more beautiful than in the photo.

"Is it Miss Wang Jie?" Zhao Wan'er greeted her with a smile. Wang Jie stopped the car and looked at the two uninvited guests in front of her suspiciously.

Zhao Wan'er had an idea and introduced herself: "Miss Wang, I am the daughter of Zhao Yiming, chairman of Guangming Construction Group Company, and I came to your house today to communicate with you about the demolition. ”

Zhao Wan'er pointed at Li Bing: "This is my assistant Li Bing, Miss Wang, can we go into the house to talk?" ”

Wang Jie hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Welcome two, please come with me, it's just that there is nothing to entertain two, please don't be surprised." ”

Wang Jie took out the key and opened the courtyard door. When the three of them walked into the courtyard, Li Bing suddenly shuddered, as if a cold wind was blowing around him.

There is a large tree with thick foliage in the courtyard, there is an ancient well under the tree, a row of cobblestone paths leading to the main gate, the two walls of the courtyard are covered with creepers, and the occasional exposed wall is also covered with moss, and the yard is covered with some flowers and weeds.

It is a two-story Hui-style ancient building, everything looks antique, only the installation of anti-theft windows and the back of the aluminum alloy doors and windows with a trace of modern elements, looking in from the courtyard, Wang Jie just opened the door of the hall inside looks dark and deep, can't help but remind Li Bing of the horror of the ancient castle in the European vampire story seen on TV.

Hearing Wang Jie's greeting, Li Bing came back to his senses, at this time, the lights were already lit in the house, and Zhao Wan'er also took Li Bing's hand and entered the house a little nervously. It is not difficult to imagine that Zhao Wan'er also has the same feeling as Li Bing.
