Chapter 680: Raising Flags
Editor: Millman97
The little news was incredibly official. The He Lan family hid themselves from the world. However, Xinghe didn鈥檛 give up. As long as there was dirt on the He Lan family, she would eventually unearth it.
Thankfully, she was not short on time, she could pursue this slowly. She was going to stay at Country R for a while, so it should be enough for her to get to the bottom of things.
...
Early the next morning, He Lan Qi arrived at the hotel. He contacted Xinghe鈥檚 group and had booked the breakfast buffet for them at the hotel. When Xinghe and the rest arrived at the lobby, he already stood there waiting.
When He Lan Qi saw them, he approached with a smile and asked with apparent concern, "Miss Xia, how was your sleep yesterday? If there鈥檚 anything bothering you, please do not hesitate to inform me."
"The accommodation is not bad, thank you, Mr. He Lan, for your arrangements," Xinghe replied matter-of-factly.
He Lan Qi laughed out of the corner of his mouth. "I wish you would call me by name. If you still wish to use honorifics, why don鈥檛 you call me Big Brother He Lan then?"
Sam, who was walking behind them, mimicked vomiting surreptitiously!
Even Ali shivered involuntarily. Can this He Lan Qi please stop being so disgusting? He wants Xinghe to call him Big Brother He Lan? Such shamelessness!
Xinghe maintained her composure and pretended she didn鈥檛 even hear him. She continued, "Mr. He Lan, let鈥檚 finish breakfast quickly and get to work. I wish to find the person as soon as possible."
"Okay." He Lan Qi shrugged with a pampering smile, like she could do no wrong in his eyes. His gentlemanly demeanor could melt the hearts of many women, but alas, Xinghe was not one of them.
During breakfast, no matter how often and how hard he tried to pamper her, Xinghe didn鈥檛 give him any response. He Lan Qi initially thought she was playing hard to get, but he finally realized she was really not interested in him. This discovery didn鈥檛 anger He Lan Qi, instead it only made him more intrigued in Xinghe.
He loved a challenge and breaking an ice queen like Xinghe was the greatest thrill.
He Lan Qi had the whole thing planned out, he even went so far as setting the target date for himself, the period he would need to wear Xinghe down before he got her twirled around his finger.
Alas, reality would teach him a cruel lesson. Not every woman was interested in him!
...
After breakfast, He Lan Qi brought them to the police station to compare DNA. Xinghe brought along Elder Shen鈥檚 DNA sample to match with Country R鈥檚 DNA database. However, the chance of success was extremely low, after all, not everyone gave their DNA sample to the police.
Xinghe, of course, didn鈥檛 put much hope in this method. Her plan was to broadcast the missing person advertisement across the internet, television, and newspapers, to convince the Shen family鈥檚 second daughter to come and show herself.
He Lan Qi was taken aback when she told him her suggestion. He wasn鈥檛 expecting such a wide-scale search.
Xinghe didn鈥檛 miss the change in his expression. She said lightly, "Mr. He Lan, do not worry, we will support the fees for the media ourselves. We will not be troubling you this time."
