When Ming Xi said this, her mood was very complicated.

At first, they thought that they would never meet again in this life, but now she still has to benefit from his help many times.

Shen Tinglu put his hands in his suit trouser pockets casually, and his expression quickly returned to normal, as if nothing had happened just now.

"I've heard about the situation here just now on the road. I'll send someone to search for Du Ruize's trace." After he finished speaking, he turned around and prepared to return to the car.

"Thank you." When Ming Xi heard his words, a warm current flowed through her heart.

Shen Tinglu paused and didn't look back, his thin lips curled into a self-deprecating smile, "These verbal thanks don't mean anything to me."

"In the future, if you need my help, you can contact me at any time. No matter how difficult it is, I will help you." Ming Xi said firmly.

The man turned his head and took a deep look at her, his eyes were a little more lonely, "Mingxi, you always don't understand."

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Mingxi's response, he opened the car door and got in the car to leave.

After the black Maybach drove away, Lu Shuofei came over, looked at Mingxi and asked worriedly, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Ming Xi calmed down a little, and smiled at her, "Aren't you pregnant? Go back and rest first."

As soon as this matter was mentioned, a happy radiance appeared on Lu Shuofei's face.

She and Ning Xie didn't hold a grand wedding, but simply received a marriage certificate, but this was enough for her.

A few months after getting married, she also successfully conceived Ning Xie's child, but now the fetus is only four months old, so the belly is not too prominent.

But some thoughts flashed out of her mind, Lu Shuofei immediately restrained her emotions, and looked at Mingxi with a complicated expression.

Ming Xi took her arm and said with a smile: "I know what you are worried about, don't worry, when I first decided to go abroad, I made up my mind to let myself forget everything here. Although I lost those two children, It hurts so much, but maybe it's life."

Hearing that she took the initiative to mention the child, Lu Shuofei was slightly relieved, "Since you can figure it out, I am relieved. I believe you will still be able to conceive a lovely baby in the future."

"En." Ming Xi responded lightly, her throat felt bitter.

She accompanied Lu Shuofei to a restaurant near the hospital for dinner. The two best friends should have had a lot to talk about since they hadn't seen each other for a long time.

But now that something like this happened to the Sheng family and Du Ruize, both of them seemed absent-minded.

Just as she was about to leave after eating, Ming Xi's cell phone rang.

Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, she answered it suspiciously, and the other party heard a cold mechanical voice: "Mingxi, I didn't expect you to cooperate and return to China. But it's a pity that Shen Tinglu ruined my whole plan, which made my whole plan worse. I missed my chance to meet you."

The voice was very weird, as if a voice changer was used, making it impossible to distinguish between men and women.

Ming Xi's face changed suddenly, and his expression was condensed, "Who the hell are you? You took Du Ruize away?"

"Heh - of course it's me. Since I can't bring you to my side, of course I have to use someone else as a substitute first."

"Release Du Ruize immediately!" Ming Xi clenched her fists tightly, her nails digging deep into her palm.

"What qualifications do you have for me to let him go?" The other party sneered, "But don't worry, the game has just begun, and the next process will be more interesting. I hope you are ready to enjoy it all."

"You!" Ming Xi had just opened her mouth when a busy tone of 'beep beep' came from the phone.

She lowered her hands in frustration, not in a hurry to call back.

Because she knew that if she called now, the other party would definitely not answer.

Seeing her emotional state, Lu Shuofei asked worriedly, "What's going on?"

Ming Xi recounted what the other party said on the phone just now, and Lu Shuofei heard cold sweat on his forehead, "I didn't expect that person to really appear, what should I do now? Is there a way to find out the whereabouts of that person?"

"I will ask someone to check the location of this number, but I don't think there is much hope. That person dares to call me blatantly, which proves that he has made strict preparations." Ming Xi analyzed with a serious expression.

"You're right." Lu Shuofei looked frustrated, "But can we just wait here for the other party's manipulation?"

Ming Xi lowered her eyes and fell into deep thought, "I seem to have overlooked some things. Fei Fei, you are pregnant and I will send you home to rest first, but I still want to go to Du Ruize's house again."

"it is good."

After sending Lu Shuofei home, Ming Xi rushed to Du Ruize's house.

Yan Bin was a little surprised, "Miss Ming, why are you here again?"

The way he looked at Mingxi was also full of gratitude.

Although he knew that Ming Xi was a righteous person, he didn't expect her to be so concerned about Du Ruize's matter.

"I..." Ming Xi walked into the house, and before she could answer, she saw the tall figure in the living room.

Knowing the past between her and Shen Tinglu, Yan Bin explained embarrassingly: "Boss Shen said he would come here to find any other clues."

Ming Xi looked even more astonished.

Because of her relationship before, the relationship between Shen Tinglu and Du Ruize was not very good. I didn't expect him to come to investigate Du Ruize's affairs in person.

Shen Tinglu picked up something on the ground, got up and looked back at her, "You're here."

After he finished speaking, he stared at the little thing in his hand.

Ming Xi knew that the matter was urgent now, so she didn't care about their current relationship, so she hurried over, "Did you find any clues?"

"What's the matter with this ring?" Shen Tinglu's slender fingers held an antique copper ring, engraved with some patterns they couldn't understand.

"This doesn't look like a token of love between Du Ruize and Miss Sheng. Could it be that Du Ruize likes to collect such things?" Ming Xi murmured in confusion.

Shen Tinglu moved his fingers and turned the ring over a few times in his hand.

Ming Xi moved her face closer, pointed to the inner ring of the ring and said, "There is a letter engraved inside. X? Why is there only such a letter engraved?"

"There is no X in the three initials of Du Ruize's name, so this letter has other meanings." Shen Tinglu held the ring in his palm and stared at her seriously, "Mingxi, do you have other things you haven't told us?" ?”

"Do you think there will be bigger things involved behind Du Ruize's back?" Ming Xi pursed her lips, "Although I am his good friend, I don't know anything about his private affairs at all."

Hearing this, Shen Tinglu's frowning brows slightly relaxed.

Realizing his subtle action, he hooked his lips in self-deprecating manner.

Obviously they have no relationship now, but hearing Ming Xi's words about the shallow relationship with other men, he actually felt relieved because of it.

Sensing the man's scorching gaze directly on her, Ming Xi raised her head in surprise, and asked him puzzledly: "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing." Shen Tinglu put the ring into his pocket, "I'll ask someone to check the origin of this ring."

"By the way, a strange person contacted me just now." Ming Xi found out the number from the phone, and also explained to him the conversation that the other party had just said to her.

The man's face was full of gloom, he wrote down the number, and immediately handed the phone back to Ming Xi.

When Ming Xi took it, her fingers accidentally touched his hand, as if an electric current passed through her heart, she subconsciously withdrew her hand.

"What? You hate me so much already?" Shen Tinglu snorted lightly at himself.

"I didn't mean that, I just..."

Before Mingxi finished speaking, Shen Tinglu's cell phone rang.

He went to the corner to answer the call. It was a call from the company, and he needed to deal with some matters.

"I see, let's go now." Shen Tinglu responded simply, hung up the phone and walked out quickly.

She also walked out unconsciously, but when she reached the gate, the man had already entered the elevator and left.

"Miss Ming, are you alright?" Yan Bin asked her worriedly when he saw that her expression was not right.

"I'm fine." Ming Xi lowered her eyes, feeling a little depressed.

She didn't have time to finish her explanation just now. Will he have more misunderstandings about her because of this?

She sighed softly, tried to calm down her emotions, and continued to search for clues in the house.

Shen Tinglu returned to the company, sat at the desk, stared at the ring twisted on his fingertip thoughtfully.

Xu Wen put a cup of hot coffee on his table and looked at him with emotion in his heart.

I haven't seen Mr. Shen for more than half a month. I didn't expect Mr. Shen to study this ring of unknown origin as soon as he came back.

"Mr. Shen, here are some project materials you need to deal with today." Xu Wen pushed some urgently needed documents in front of him, and asked tentatively, "There are a lot of things to deal with in the company recently, and you are going to go to Country C?"

Shen Tinglu put the ring on one side, with a gloomy expression, "I'll decide later."

The image of Ming Xi dodging immediately when he touched his finger just now appeared in his mind, and his heart ached slightly.

Xu Wen tactfully didn't ask any further questions, and was about to step aside when he suddenly noticed the letters engraved on the inner ring of the ring.

"X?" He frowned and muttered, "I remember seeing a similar ring on someone else before."

"Who?" Shen Tinglu raised his head abruptly, his sharp eyes came straight to him.

Sensing the cold aura emanating from his body, Xu Wen quickly told him everything he knew, "Mr. Shen, do you still remember that a ring fell from Mr. Shen's hand when he passed away a few years ago?"

After the words fell, Shen Tinglu's expression became more dignified.

He closed his eyes, and some old memories came to mind.

The Shen Group was founded by his grandfather. Although the company did not really enter its glory after he took over, Mr. Shen has indeed laid a solid foundation for the company.

It's just that Mr. Shen seems to be hiding a lot of secrets.

Until he was about to die that year, he was still clutching an intricate bronze ring in his hand.
