Attack of the Adorable Kid: President Daddy's Infinite Pampering

Chapter 1646: Tang Xi vs Ling Hui (3)

Ling Hui recalled what had happened after she was kidnapped.

She saw that the dark room behind the study was full of photos of Mother Tang.

Then, she was drugged and brought to the villa in the outskirts of the Lin family.

When Lin Yanyan came back, she had just woken up. All of this had been arranged by Liu Ping.

It was to make Mr Lin think that she was the one who had pushed Lin Yanyan down the stairs!

Was she doing this to punish her and Tang Xi?

After all, if she had not insisted on investigating, Liu Ping might never have revealed her true colors.

No. Ling Hui felt that things were not that simple.

Before Liu Ping left, she said that the game had started. What did that mean?

What was her real intention?

Ling Hui thought of the wall full of photos and frowned.

“Sister Ling Hui, is Liu Ping not dead?” Gu Meng asked.

Ling Hui closed her eyes and fell into deep thought.

Gu Meng wanted to ask about something else, but Tang Xi shot her a look.

Ling Hui must be thinking about something.

“Not only is Liu Ping not dead, but Tang Xi’s mother might not have died either,” Ling Hui muttered softly.

“Sister Ling Hui, what did you say?”

Ling Hui opened her eyes and looked at Tang Xi. Gu Meng understood what Ling Hui meant. She wanted to talk to Tang Xi.

Gu Meng handed the microphone to Tang Xi and Tang Xi took it. “Did you just say that my mother is not dead?”

Although it was just Ling Hui’s guess, Tang Xi was extremely shocked.

Ling Hui frowned and said hoarsely, “Tang Xi, maybe we were wrong from the start. The person Liu Ping likes is not your father, but your mother.”

Tang Xi tightened his hold on the microphone.

This seemed too unbelievable!

“After Lin Yanyan was pushed downstairs, I saw Liu Ping standing in the corner. Although she was wearing a black shirt and pants, I noticed that there were scratches on her neck. From what I observed, it was obvious that someone had scratched her.”

And from the scratch marks, it had probably been done by a woman.

Who would be able to touch a sinister and cunning person like Liu Ping?

That person had to be the closest to her and her favorite person!

Although she still could not understand why Liu Ping would stay by Tang Xi’s father’s side for so many years if she liked Tang Xi’s mother, she felt that Tang Xi’s mother might still be alive.

“Tang Xi, don’t worry about me first. If your mother is still alive, you have to find her as soon as possible.”

…

After the visit, Gu Meng and Tang Xi came out.

Tang Xi understood Ling Hui’s current situation from the lawyer and could not bail her out.

Father Lin claimed that he had seen Ling Hui push Lin Yanyan down the stairs with his own eyes. In addition, when Lin Yanyan slapped Ling Hui, she had used a lot of strength. There had been Ling Hui’s blood under her fingernails, which meant that they had indeed had a conflict.

The evidence and witnesses were all there. Even if Ling Hui had a noble status, she could not get rid of the suspicion.

Ling Hui was not in a hurry. As long as they caught Liu Ping, Tang Xi would have a way to make her confess.

However, she still did not understand what Liu Ping meant when she said that the game had started.

Did she feel a sense of achievement from seeing them being played around?

…

Tang Xi drove Gu Meng back to the Third Prince’s palace. He knew that Gu Meng was worried about Ling Hui. Before Gu Meng got out of the car, he said, “Leave your cousin’s matter to me. Don’t worry, I will definitely get her out.”

Gu Meng looked at Tang Xi. Ever since she found out that Sister Ling Hui had gone missing, he seemed to have become more mature. The careless aura on him was gone.

Gu Meng nodded. “Okay.”

…

After sending Gu Meng back, Tang Xi and Fang Ye went to Liu Ping’s ex-husband’s house.

Liu Ping’s ex-husband’s house was in the countryside. When Tang Xi went over and mentioned Liu Ping, the ex-husband’s family was extremely disgusted when they heard her name.

“After getting married, she never interacted with us villagers. Let’s not talk about this. The most important thing is that before our Ah Da passed away in a car accident, he never slept with her.”

“I don’t know what sin our Ah Da committed in his previous life to marry such a useless woman.”

On the way back, Tang Xi remained silent.

Was Ling Hui’s guess true? Was the person Liu Ping liked his mother?

If his mother was still alive, where was she being kept by Liu Ping?

After returning to the villa, Tang Xi locked himself in the storeroom for the entire night.

At dawn, he seemed to have thought of something. He got up, pulled open the door of the storeroom, and rushed out.

Fang Ye was worried that something had happened to Tang Xi and had been waiting outside the storeroom. When he saw Tang Xi come out, he hurriedly said, “Young Master, did you think of something?”

Tang Xi pursed his lips tightly. He had not rested for a few days and his eyes were slightly red. He hummed and strode out.

Fang Ye followed Tang Xi to a man-made lake in the back garden.

Tang Xi threw a stone in and asked Fang Ye, who was behind him, “How can I pick up this stone?”

Fang Ye did not understand what Tang Xi meant by this question, so he replied honestly, “Jump down and pick it up. But the lake is quite deep, so it’s not easy to pick up a stone.”

Tang Xi took out the ring from his pocket and his bright eyes narrowed slightly.

“The old man said that he found the ring in the grass, but Liu Ping said that my mother threw the ring into the lake. If it really was in the lake, how could it appear at Mountain Cang?”

Not only had it appeared at Mountain Cang, it had even appeared in the old man’s house.

The old man had sold all of her mother’s valuable jewelry except for this fake ring.

If the ring had really been thrown into the lake, someone would definitely have thought that it was real and would have secretly fished it out.

Tang Xi put his fingers on his handsome chin and looked at Fang Ye. “Help me investigate the son of an old man living at the foot of Mountain Cang.”

Fang Ye was very fast. In half a day, he found out that the old man’s son was a psychiatrist.

When he saw the psychiatrist’s photo, Tang Xi suddenly remembered that this person had even come to visit his mother before.

Perhaps he was the one who had secretly snuck into the Tang family and taken the ring from the lake.

He found the ring and realized that it was fake. He might have found Liu Ping and made some kind of agreement with her.

Liu Ping wanted to get his mother while the psychiatrist wanted to get rich.

“Check the properties under this doctor’s name.”

The doctor had two properties. One of them was in the villa area halfway up the mountain.

It was not far from the Tang family’s villa.

“Young Master, could it be that Madam is really still alive and has always been so close to us?” Fang Ye had goosebumps all over his body. If it was true, it was not too far away from his house. If she was in the attic, she would be able to see her house whenever she looked up, but could only look at it for several years without leaving. What kind of torture was that for a person’s heart?

A normal person would definitely be driven crazy.

Tang Xi’s eyes immediately turned red.

The people living in the villa area halfway up the mountain were either rich or noble. They were usually very busy and rarely went out.

Tang Xi did not dare to imagine what had happened to his mother if his guess was true!
