Chapter 230 Missing
It was already dark, and Xu Youyou thought that this time the return would be easy.
However, she didn't expect that what she faced was a locked yard gate. Looking in from the outside, the yard was pitch black.
Her bodyguard knocked on the gate for a long time and kept asking questions inside, but there was no response.
"It's strange. There are always people at home during the day, but no one is home at night." The bodyguard muttered.
Xu Youyou was also puzzled.
Xu Fang, who was very experienced in life, whispered, "Boss, could it be that that green-haired guy ran away because he was worried that Miss Gu would blackmail him about her miscarriage?"
Xu Youyou was shocked: "If he ran away, could he take his mother with him? His mother's condition is not particularly good."
Xu Fang said, "Maybe some special means were used?"
At this time, the system's golden pointer was still pointing straight to a certain place in the yard.
Xu Youyou recalled the mess that happened in the afternoon and couldn't help wondering, is this the test of the official mission? Will there be some unexpected events to stop her?
"Go check who owns this house? See if this mother and son are the owners or tenants." Xu Youyou said.
Without waiting for Xu Fang's agreement, Lu Jingyao said directly: "I'll ask Assistant Liu to check it out. He is good at investigating these things."
The Lu family also has a real estate company and has extensive connections in Jinling. In less than half an hour, Assistant Liu sent Xu Youyou preliminary feedback.
This house does belong to the little green-haired boy.
As a gold medal assistant, Assistant Liu's abilities are not to be underestimated. He not only found out the real estate information, but also found out a lot about the mother and son.
The previous owner of the house was Xiao Lumao's father, who was considered a native of Jinling. His father was not well-received in this alley because of his ugly appearance and because he had polio when he was young and walked with a limp.
The man's nickname was Yang Quezi. He was stingy and mean. He had been on several blind dates when he was young but they all failed. It was obvious that his conditions were not very good, but after being so picky, no one introduced him to a partner.
Until twenty years ago, Yang Guizi picked up a crazy woman on the roadside, took her home, and a year later, she gave birth to Little Green Hair.
Three years ago, Yang Guizi passed away, and the owner of the house became Little Green Hair.
"Ms. Xu, speaking of it, there was quite a commotion when the ownership of this yard was transferred. Although Yang Quezi's parents had passed away, he still had a cousin. His cousin thought that Little Green Hair was not Yang Quezi's biological son because the house was passed down from Yang Quezi's grandfather, and wanted to compete with Little Green Hair for the house." Assistant Liu said.
Xu Youyou frowned slightly: "How could a cousin compete with his own son?"
Assistant Liu explained: "Little Green Hair was still a minor at that time. Actually, this cousin was Little Green Hair's guardian."
Xu Youyou couldn't help but feel curious after hearing this: "So what happened next?"
"I asked around, but couldn't find out the specific reason. I just vaguely heard that Little Green Hair found an older brother who beat up his cousin, and his cousin didn't dare to continue arguing with him. This continued until Little Green Hair became an adult, and the house naturally fell into his name."
Xu Youyou thought of Little Green Hair's mother again: "Can't his mother inherit the property?"
"Yang Quezi and his mother didn't get a marriage certificate. If Little Green Hair and Yang Quezi weren't in the same household registration book, the inheritance of the property might not have been so smooth."
Xu Youyou watched the situation get to this point. Although she didn't know what she was going to get, she said to be on the safe side, "Assistant Liu, could you please ask someone to try to contact Little Green Hair? I want to buy this yard."
Upon hearing this, Assistant Liu glanced at Lu Jingyao next to him. His original intention was to ask Lu Jingyao to persuade Xu Youyou. After all, if Xu Youyou wanted to buy a house in Jinling, anything she bought seemed more suitable than the house owned by Little Green Hair.
First, it is not in the school district, second, it is not in the city center, and third, the decoration is extremely outdated. I really don’t know what I can do with it after buying it.
Lu Jingyao didn't even bother to ask. He simply nodded and said to Assistant Liu, "You should handle this matter yourself. It would be best if there is a result tomorrow."
Assistant Liu agreed.
Xu Youyou didn't think this was difficult, but at noon the next day, before the agreed time, Assistant Liu gave a reply in advance.
"Ms. Xu, this man seems to have disappeared from the face of the earth, and even his confused mother has disappeared. It's my incompetence. I'm afraid I won't be able to find him for a while." Assistant Liu's tone was full of apology.
Xu Youyou also sent bodyguards to stake out outside the small courtyard, but there was no unusual movement for such a long time. The little green-haired boy had run away with his mother.
Xu Youyou looked at the countdown on the system interface, and a rare panic arose in her heart. If she couldn't buy the yard, she couldn't be an outlaw and let people climb over the wall to take her things.
Seeing that they were about to walk on the edge of the law, Lu Jingyao took the initiative to say: "Youyou, Grandpa and I have agreed that we will go to his place for dinner tonight."
Xu Youyou paused. Lu Jingyao was not the kind of boyfriend who disrespected others. They had originally agreed to meet with Grandpa Lu tomorrow morning, but now he suddenly moved the meeting forward. He must have his reasons.
"Could it be that your grandfather..."
Before Xu Youyou finished speaking, Lu Jingyao nodded slightly.
"I don't know why you're drawn to this little courtyard, but if he's in Jinling and my grandfather can't find him, then no one can find him."
Xu Youyou's eyes lit up with joy, but then she belatedly asked, "I wonder if your grandfather will like me? Will he be unhappy if I come here to ask for something?"
Lu Jingyao laughed and said, "I think as long as you don't break up with me in front of him, he should like you."
Xu Youyou: ...
The gifts for visiting Mr. Lu had already been prepared in advance, and now that the meeting time was moved forward, there was no panic at all.
Mr. Lu does not live in the central city, but in the suburbs. The villa he lives in is not particularly large, but the cameras scattered around and the burly security guards coming and going all show that this is not a place where one can act recklessly.
The door to the villa yard slowly opened. Unlike the exquisite and luxurious decoration that Xu Youyou had imagined, the scene inside was more like an ordinary farmyard.
Vegetables were planted in front of and behind the house. An energetic old man, wearing simple old clothes, was turning the soil in the yard. He was quick in his movements and looked focused.
Xu Youyou thought this person was a servant of the villa, but she didn't expect Lu Jingyao to shout directly: "Grandpa, I brought the person back."
