Chapter 695: Panic
There were only two kinds of people who were after Luo Cheng.
One wanted benefits, and the other was Luo Cheng’s enemy.
They didn’t know what type Liu Mingkun was.
In the beginning, he said that he was here for his village.
However, he refused to let go of Li Xiaoqing.
But now, he had captured Li Xiaoran and Li Xiao Qing’s parents. Could it be that he was trying to obtain benefits?
Luo Ziyang guessed, “Do you think Liu Mingkun guessed that his matters had been exposed and was afraid that Luo Cheng would capture him, so he took Father and Mother away?”
“Logically speaking, this shouldn’t be the case! Liu Mingkun doesn’t seem to be such a reckless person! Even if the things he did were hidden flawlessly, there are definitely loopholes. Moreover, from the news sent back by Yu Peng, the other party didn’t attempt to hide what he did in the past at all!” Zi Zheng had a different idea.
Li Xiaoran found a quieted down place and sat down.
She had to sit alone for a while and figure out what was going on.
From the information Yu Peng had gathered, Liu Mingkun was a womanizer.
Such men had one obvious characteristic. They were conceited.
When women were toyed around by him, he would feel very smug.
Why had such a man suddenly appeared in front of them?
If he was looking for money and fame, his target was probably her sister, Li Xiaoqing, right from the beginning. This was because as long as her sister was loyal to him and agreed to his requests, he would definitely be able to have a comfortable life in the future!
This was very likely the case.
However, they couldn’t rule out the possibility that someone wanted to deal with Luo Cheng, so they secretly planted such a person around him.
Originally, these people planned to use Liu Mingkun’s womanizing skills to take down Li Xiaoqing.
However, things had changed, forcing Liu Mingkun to change his plan and kidnap Li Xiaoran’s parents.
After thinking about it, Li Xiaoran felt that every scenario was possible.
At this moment, she was very fl.u.s.tered.
Just as Li Xiaoran felt that she was about to lose her mind, Luo Cheng’s cold voice sounded.
“Liu Mingkun’s purpose behind taking Father and Mother away is probably to force Father and Mother to write a marriage contract for him and Xiao Qing! No matter what his goal is, as long as he becomes Xiao Qing’s husband, even if he obtained it through coercion, as long as he obtains the ident.i.ty of Xiao
Qing’s husband, it will be beneficial to him!”
These words struck Li Xiaoran like a bolt of lightning.
At this moment, Li Xiaoran’s mind suddenly became clear. Then, she understood many things.
No wonder Yu Peng found out about Liu Mingkun so easily. No wonder Liu Mingkun said that he was in love with someone else from the beginning and even said that there had been hatred between Huaiqi Village and Daxing Village for generations. His goal was to dispel their vigilance and buy him time to approach Li Xiaoqing.
No wonder he wasn’t anxious at all. He even went to the shop every day to eat sliced noodles and spread rumors.
After Luo Ziyang appeared beside Xiao Qing, he knew that the situation wasn’t right and he couldn’t use his usual tricks on Xiao Qing, so he targeted Xiao Qing’s parents.
No, that wasn’t right. He didn’t target their parents. More specifically, he targeted their mother.
Therefore, as long as he used his own abilities to win over his future mother-in-law, this marriage would be possible.
“In that case, Father and Mother’s lives are not in danger for the time being!” Li Xiaoqing could only come to this conclusion.
Li Xiaoran said coldly, “Their lives aren’t in danger, but they will suffer a little.
As long as Father and Mother are unwilling to agree to Xiao Qing and Liu Mingkun’s marriage, Liu Mingkun will definitely think of a way to force Father and Mother to agree!”
When Li Xiaoqing heard her sister’s words, she recalled some scenes and was immediately anxious.
“Sister, what should we do now? Don’t let me see Liu Mingkun again, or I’ll definitely teach him a lesson!”
Li Xiaoran suddenly thought of something and her expression changed.
“Husband, send someone out to look for them! I believe Liu Mingkun won’t be able to get far with Father and Mother. Let’s quickly arrange for people to look for them!”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he was stunned for a moment. Then, he saw Li Xiaoran wink at him and immediately understood.
“Alright, don’t worry. I’ll definitely send more people to find Father and Mother!” Luo Cheng said loudly, “Ziyang, Zi Zheng, send all our buddies out to search everywhere. We must find them!”
With that, Luo Cheng gestured to Zi Yan and Zi Zheng.
After seeing Luo Cheng’s gesture, Luo Ziyang and Zi Zheng understood and immediately replied loudly,
“Yes, Young Master. We’ll arrange for people to look for them now!”
With that, the two of them sprinted outside.
“Xiaoran, let’s go back first! Don’t worry too much about Father and Mother. With me around, we’ll definitely find them safely!” Luo Cheng comforted as he pulled Li Xiaoran to her feet.
Li Xiaoran nodded and pulled Li Xiaoqing away from the house.
On the way back, Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran and asked, “Xiaoran, did you find anything?”
“Have you heard of the saying ‘darkness under the light’?” Li Xiaoran said.
Luo Cheng and Li Xiao Qing were stunned when they heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
Li Xiaoqing thought of something and asked, “You mean that Liu Mingkun and
Father and Mother are still in that house?”
Li Xiaoran said, “I’m not sure yet, but probably. Even if Liu Mingkun isn’t hiding in that house with Father and Mother, he’s nearby. Otherwise, he’s in the house over at the wine shop. The house over there is usually guarded. If Liu Mingkun is hiding alone, he might be able to hide without alerting anyone, but if he brings Father and Mother in, it won’t be easy! Therefore, I think that if he isn’t hiding in the wine shop, he’sdefinitely be hiding near our house!”
“If he’s not there, it’s very likely that he’ll be near the house just now. Perhaps once we leave, he’ll bring Father and Mother back to the house.. As the saying goes, the most dangerous place might also be the safest place!”
