My life is ending, and my aloof CEO wife is taking revenge on me.

Chapter 136 Miss Dong

Wu Qian's mother glanced at the door of the ward; I think she was probably afraid that Wu Qian would hear.

After hearing what Wu Qian's mother said, I realized that the child's condition was much more serious than Wu Qian knew; the infection was very severe.

Moreover, Lin Qiuran knew about this news.

After receiving the news, Lin Qiuran suddenly disappeared.

Wu Qian's mother wiped away her tears, "I didn't dare to say it just now, but Qiu Ran most likely went to find that driver."

I asked about the details and location of the car accident that day, and then left the hospital with Jiang Yi.

On the bus, I kept calling Lin Qiuran, but no one answered. Just as Wu Qian said, every call went unanswered.

Jiang Yi and I went to the square where the incident occurred and asked the shop assistants of several nearby stores.

An employee at one of the bubble tea shops told me, "You're talking about the car accident a few days ago, right? The Rolls-Royce that hit the pregnant woman. The traffic police investigated that a few days ago."

Jiang Yi reminded me, "If the traffic police have investigated, there will definitely be records. If you are sure that Lin Qiuran's disappearance is related to this matter, you might as well go to the traffic police station. I happen to know someone there who may be able to help."

So Jiang Yi and I rushed to the Transportation Bureau. I was left in the car while Jiang Yi went to ask his friend about the situation.

Soon, he took out some documents, returned to the car, and handed them to me.

As Jiang Yi drove, he told me, "The traffic police did investigate the accident. The responsibility lies with the driver. The traffic police have already detained him, and we're just waiting for sentencing."

Currently, we have no other options but to try to find the driver's family based on the available information.

However, the family members were very unhappy when they saw us, and even tried to drive us away.

She kept complaining, "What else do you want? My husband has already been arrested, are you going to arrest us all?"

"He was just a driver for someone else, so how come in the end all the responsibility fell on our shoulders?"

work to earn a living?

It seems we won't get anything out of her.

I pulled up Lin Qiuran's photo, held up my phone at the door, and showed it to her.

"Could you check if this person has been here recently?"

She seemed unwilling, showing no remorse for doing anything wrong, and instead complained that we had punished her husband.

She wouldn't even glance at me; she just shooed me out.

Jiang Yi was afraid I would be pushed over, so she stepped in front of me to block the door as she was about to close it.

"Big sister, just take a look. We're looking for someone, not here to cause trouble."

Hearing him say that, the woman reluctantly looked up.

"Isn't this the pregnant woman's husband? He came by a couple of days ago and asked about my husband and who his boss was."

"Did you tell him everything?"

“It’s not a big deal. You can find out about it anywhere,” I told him, and he ran off in a hurry after hearing that.

Is that really the case?

He really did go looking for the perpetrator for the sake of his child and wife.

Lin Qiuran, you absolutely cannot get into trouble!

I was very worried. Jiang Yi asked the older sister, "Sister, who is your husband's boss? Can you tell me?"

"Isn't our husband's boss that guy surnamed Dong? He's one of the top bosses in S City."

In City S, one of the most prestigious cities, there aren't many families with the surname Dong.

The eldest sister didn't want to say any more and pushed us out, saying, "Alright, I've told you everything. Don't bother us anymore."

Then they closed the door in front of us.

Is your surname Dong?

The Dong family is one of the top families. I searched my memory. Could it be the real estate tycoon Dong Group?

This is just my guess.

In the car, Jiang Yi showed me the information he had found.

He searched for families with the surname Dong online, and many web pages popped up one after another.

The most recent activity of the Dong family is the page featuring Miss Dong attending Fashion Week.

There happens to be a photo on this page of Ms. Dong getting out of a car. The license plate on the car matches the information in the documents, and even the time matches.

In other words, Wu Qian's car accident is very likely related to Miss Wu.

However, it was Ms. Wu's driver who was ultimately punished, while Ms. Wu herself was not affected in any way.

Given Lin Qiuran's temperament, he would find this outcome very difficult to accept.

In a state of confusion, you never know what he might do.

Could Lin Qiuran's disappearance also be related to this Miss Dong?

Another news item mentioned that there will be a fashion show in S City tomorrow, and Ms. Dong has been invited.

The article mentions that Ms. Dong is very enthusiastic about fashion shows, and it is speculated that she is very likely to attend.

After reading this article, I made up my mind that I must go there and find this Miss Dong in person to ask her questions.

I told Jiang Yi about my plans: "There are no other leads right now, I need to go there."

He agreed wholeheartedly, saying, "I'll take care of the tickets for you, but I'll be busy these next few days and won't be able to go with you."

I'm already very grateful that he helped me get the tickets; I couldn't possibly expect him to drop everything and go with me.

Jiang Yi made a few phone calls and quickly got me the tickets. Then he took me to the airport.

Shortly after I arrived at the airport, the courier who delivered the tickets arrived and gave them to me.

I rushed to City S without stopping.

Fortunately, I finally made it there as I had hoped.

On the second day of the fashion show, I searched for Ms. Dong in the crowd, but I couldn't find her anywhere.

Just as I was doubting that Miss Dong probably wouldn't come, I overheard a conversation among several socialites around me.

"Why didn't the eldest daughter of the Dong family come?"

"I heard her favorite thing is Fashion Week, is she not coming today?"

"You don't know? They love to be the grand finale, you know what a grand finale is?"

I was finally relieved; at least the person would come.

The Dong family has many sons but only one daughter, who was naturally spoiled from a young age.

No wonder she enjoys being the center of attention!

The fashion show was about to begin, and I kept looking towards the entrance. I don't know how many times I looked, but finally, Miss Dong appeared.

She was dressed in expensive haute couture, but looked plain and unremarkable; it was just like wearing an ordinary person's house on her body.

She was surrounded by security guards who cleared a path for her and protected her.

Without thinking twice, I immediately got up and stepped forward to stop her.

Everyone moved aside to make way for her, which actually made things easier for me.

Although Miss Dong looked displeased, she still stopped in her tracks.

Her bodyguards stepped forward to take me away, but Miss Dong stopped them.

I seized the opportunity and said, "Ms. Dong, I'd like to have a word with you."

Miss Dong looked me up and down. "Have we met somewhere before?"
