Chapter 853: Times of Crisis(6)
Seeing that Ming Li wasn’t replying, the second Mrs. Ruan pursed her lips and went into the living room with the baby.
Actually, the second Mrs. Ruan knew that it was Ruan Fusheng who injured Ming Li, even without her saying. She was just asking to be sure.
The relationship between Qin Shi, the second Mrs. Ruan and Ming Li was very delicate. Qin Shi didn’t like second Mrs. Ruan, and so the second Mrs. Ruan would vent her frustration at Qin Shi’s treatment onto Ming Li. Initially, Ming Li bore it quietly, but she had gradually grown resentful.
The vicious cycle just kept repeating itself.
At the gate of the Ruan family mansion, a middle-aged man in laborer’s clothes slowly approached. He stood outside the gate and looked in.
The metal gates were shut tightly, and he couldn’t see anything, so he could only press his face against the crack between the doors and look in.
In the surveillance room at the gates, the KSI member A in charge of guarding this place saw the middle-aged man outside from the surveillance camera and grew wary. He took out a gun and stowed it behind him before walking out.
“Who are you!’
The middle-aged man saw the buff foreigner and was visibly surprised, “Eh, why does the Ruan family have a foreign security guard?”
“Who are you!”
The man smiled, “I am Wang Cuifen’s man. I’m here to look for my wife.”
Wang Cuifen was actually Ms. Wang, the nanny hired to look after little rice dumpling. Only, since almost everyone here called her Ms. Wang, no one other than Mr. Zhong and Du Gang, who had hired her, knew her given name.
“There isn’t such a person here! Leave immediately!” Member A warned coldly.
“How can she not be here? My woman is definitely working here! Hurry and ask her to come out. She hasn’t sent any money home for many days and I’m almost at my wits end!”
Ms. Wang’s husband, Master Liu, used to work on the construction site, but after an accident, he was unable to continue working. They still had a son attending university, and so, with no other choice, Ms. Wang signed up for a training course and got her nanny license. Since then, she had been working as a nanny for rich families to support her family.
The whole family’s expenses and their son’s tuition fees all relied on Ms. Wang only, and so Ms. Wang was careful with every penny. Master Liu’s only faults were that he liked to drink and gambled every now and then. Ms. Wang worried that, with her away from home, Master Liu would spend the money frivolously and thus only sent him money for living expenses every few days.
Now that Ms. Wang was locked in the Ruan family home and completely cut-off from the outside world, Master Liu had spent all the money he had, so he could come to the Ruan family home to ask for more. Luckily, when Ms. Wang first came to work, it was Master Liu who sent her here, so he knew where the mansion was.
Only, the last time he came, the guard at the gate was a local fellow who was rather courteous towards him. That guy would recognize him.
How come that guy had suddenly turned into this tattooed, fierce-looking foreigner?
The key was that this foreigner also spoke rather fluent Mandarin…
“Scram, now!” Member A glared, looking even fiercer.
Master Liu took a step back in fright, but his sharp eyes saw a corner of the black gun that member A was hiding.
Although it shocked him, he maintained a calm outward appearance.
Master Liu scratched his head, “Maybe I remembered wrong, isn’t this the Chen family mansion?”
“No, it isn’t! Scram!” Member A gripped the gun tighter, as if prepared to shoot if Master Liu still didn’t leave.
Master Liu hurriedly nodded, “I’ll leave, I’ll leave now! What are you hurrying me for? Really, youngsters these days are all so hot-tempered…”
Master Liu continued to nag almost absentmindedly as he got onto his scooter and quickly left the mansion.
It was only after he drove quite a distance away before he dared to look back. When he saw that the fierce-looking foreigner had returned to the guards’ room, Master Liu breathed a long sigh of relief.
